Shareholders are referred to the Interim Report and Cash Distribution which was 
published by Nampak on 21 May 2009, in which shareholders were advised that the 
Company`s share premium would be reduced by payment of a capital reduction of   
18.0 cents per ordinary share in respect of the six months ended 31 March 2009, 
payable to ordinary shareholders recorded as such in the register at the close  
of business on the record date, Friday 10 July 2009.                            
The sources of the distribution of 18.0 cents per share are:                    
a)   11.1833 cents per share from ordinary share premium; and                  
 b)   6.8167 cents per share from preferred ordinary share premium.             
For income tax purposes shareholders are advised that the amount of 11.1833     
cents per share will be regarded as a return of capital and therefore           
consideration should be given to possible capital gains tax consequences.  The  
balance of 6.8167 cents per ordinary share will be regarded as a dividend and   
therefore will be subject to Secondary Tax on Companies (STC).
