Notes:
1. Shares may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday, 30
March 2009 and Friday, 3 April 2009, both days
inclusive.
2. The above dates and times are subject to change. Any changes will be
published on SENS and in the press. The number of capitalisation shares
to which shareholders are entitled will be determined in the ratio that
35 cents per ordinary share bears to the 30-day volume weighted average
price for the Company`s share, to be determined by no later than
Thursday, 19 March 2009. Details of the ratio will be published on SENS
not later than Friday, 20 March 2009 and in the financial press the
following business day. Trading in the Strate environment does not
permit fractions and fractional entitlements. Accordingly, where a
shareholder`s entitlement to new ordinary shares calculated in
accordance with the above formula gives rise to a fraction of a new
ordinary share, such fraction will be rounded up to the nearest whole
number where the fraction is greater than or equal to 0,5 and rounded
down to the nearest whole number where the fraction is less than 0,5.
3. The right to capitalisation shares in jurisdictions other than the
Republic of South Africa may be restricted by law and a failure to
comply with any of those restrictions may constitute a violation of the
securities laws of any such jurisdictions. Shareholders` rights to
capitalisation shares are not being offered, directly or indirectly, in
the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia or
Japan, unless certain exemptions from the requirements of those
jurisdictions are applicable.
Note:
Dematerialised shareholders are required to notify their duly appointed CSDP
or broker of their election in terms of the
capitalisation award in the manner and at the time stipulated in the
agreement governing the relationship between the shareholder
and his/her CSDP or broker.
