remaining shareholders of SACMH at 30 cents per share, plus a possible
additional amount per share to shareholders who accept the offer, under
circumstances set out in paragraph 3.2.3 of the offer document.
Shareholders are advised that JSW SA has decided, by agreement with the board
of SACMH and with the consent of the Securities Regulation Panel, in the light

extend the closing date of the offer further until 12:00 on Friday 18 February
2011. All other terms and conditions of the offer remain unaffected.
