RIGHTS OFFER FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT
1. Introduction
Fountainhead unitholders are referred to the rights offer declaration
announcement released on the Securities Exchange News Service ("SENS") of the
JSE Limited ("JSE") on 21 February 2011 and in the South African press on 22
February 2011 in which Fountainhead announced the terms of its R1.0 billion
rights offer (the "Rights Offer").
2. Terms of the Rights Offer
In terms of the Rights Offer, 166 666 667 new Fountainhead units ("Rights
Offer Units") will be offered for subscription to Fountainhead unitholders
recorded in the register at 17h00 on the record date for the Rights Offer,
being Friday, 18 March 2011 ("Qualifying Unitholders"), on the basis of
16.73288 new Fountainhead units for every 100 Fountainhead units held by such
unitholders, at 600 cents per Rights Offer Unit.
Applications for additional Rights Offer Units will be allowed.
The Rights Offer has not been underwritten.
The Rights Offer price has been calculated on the basis that the Rights Offer
Units will qualify for the full distribution in respect of the six-month
period ended 30 March 2011, notwithstanding the date of the allotment and
issue of such Rights Offer Units.
The Rights Offer price accordingly includes a prepaid distribution of 27.71
cents, being an estimate of the distribution that will be paid for the six-
month period 1 October 2010 to 31 March 2011. This estimate has not been
reviewed by nor reported on by Fountainhead`s external auditors.
This has been done to ensure that the Rights Offer does not dilute
Fountainhead`s distribution to existing unitholders for the period in
question. The amount received in respect of prepaid distributions will be
recognised as income to Fountainhead.
3. Conditions precedent
All conditions precedent to the Rights Offer have now been fulfilled:
- approval of the Rights Offer circular has been obtained from the Registrar
of Collective Investment Schemes;
