Further to the announcement to shareholders published on 24 November 2005 in    
which shareholders were informed that the exchange rate to be used to determine 
the Rand equivalent of the final dividend for the year ended 30 September 2005  
payable on 8 February 2006 would be calculated on 29 December 2005, shareholders
are hereby advised that the exchange rate to be used will be US$1 = R6.3385.    
This has been calculated as the average of the bid/ask spread as at noon (South 
African time) on 29 December 2005.                                              
Consequently, the Rand value of the cash entitlement of 42 US cents per share   
will therefore be R2.66217 per share.
