MMI - MMI Holdings Limited - Dealing in securities by directors: implementation of share purchase transaction between directors and senior executives of MMI, Firstrand and RMBH MMI HOLDINGS LIMITED (Formerly METROPOLITAN HOLDINGS LIMITED) (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 2000/031756/06) ISIN: ZAE000149902 JSE Share code: MMI NSX Share code: MIM ("MMI") DEALING IN SECURITIES BY DIRECTORS: IMPLEMENTATION OF SHARE PURCHASE TRANSACTION BETWEEN DIRECTORS AND SENIOR EXECUTIVES OF MMI, FIRSTRAND AND RMBH MMI shareholders are referred to an announcement by FirstRand Limited ("FirstRand") and RMB Holdings Limited ("RMBH") shareholders on 23 December 2009 in which their shareholders were advised of a private transaction in which RMBH and FirstRand directors G T Ferreira, L L Dippenaar and P K Harris (collectively "the Founders` Consortium") had agreed to sell 1,2 million RMBH and 22,8 million FirstRand ordinary shares to a group of senior executives in RMBH and FirstRand (the "Executive Share Purchase Transaction"). To implement the Executive Share Purchase Transaction, the Founders` Consortium needed to sell RMBH ordinary shares and acquire FirstRand ordinary shares in the market. While the terms, rights and obligations of the Executive Share Purchase Transaction were fixed at that stage, delivery of the underlying RMBH and FirstRand ordinary shares has to date not taken place as, up to 15 December 2010, either FirstRand and/or RMBH had been trading under a cautionary as a result of their respective restructurings. In this period FirstRand also unbundled its interest in MMI to its shareholders. On 15 December 2010, following the RMBH SENS release of the detailed terms of the RMBH restructuring, Remgro Limited announced that it had reached agreement to sell FirstRand ordinary shares and MMI ordinary shares to the Founders` Consortium in exchange for RMBH ordinary shares (the "Remgro Exchange Transaction"). All of the conditions of the Remgro Exchange Transaction have now been fulfilled. The Founder`s Consortium will use all FirstRand ordinary shares and MMI ordinary shares acquired in the Remgro Exchange Transaction to meet their delivery obligations under the Executive Share Purchase Transaction. Consequently, in compliance with the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, the following information relating to the implementation of the Remgro Exchange Transaction is disclosed: Director : Lauritz Lanser Dippenaar Company : MMI Holdings Date of transaction : 4 February 2011 Nature of transaction : Off market purchase of securities Number of securities : 1,490,864 Class of securities : Ordinary shares Purchase price : R17.12 (Note 1) Total value of transaction : R25,523,587 Nature and extent of interest : Non-beneficial, for delivery in terms of the Executive Share Purchase Transaction
