The listing of BK is subject to the JSE receiving confirmation that the Company has achieved both the required spread of shareholders as prescribed in the JSE Listings Requirements and the minimum subscription of R200,000,000 (two hundred million Rand) referred to in paragraph 3.3 below.

BK has been established to meet the demand created by the increasingly compelling investment case for private equity which is being experienced locally and globally. This is being driven by a growing appetite for private equity as part of a diversified investment portfolio. It is believed that the demand for private equity is found in a broad spectrum of investors from private individuals to institutional investors. Basileus Capital is a proprietary investment house focused on investing its own capital. Kwanda Capital, through a co-investment model with Basileus Capital, will provide investment advice on the portfolio construction, pricing and exit strategies in respect of BK. Basileus Capital, as the first principal investor, applies its own robust investment processes to ensure that the best opportunities it reviews are included in its own investment portfolio. This process is founded upon rigorous research, a large and experienced team and supported by the fact that Basileus Capital invests its own capital into its portfolio of diverse investments. Basileus Capital plays a significant role in the operations of the underlying companies through actively deploying its people in these companies and assisting them through a comprehensive support structure that comprises of the following areas: finance, legal, compliance, project management, human resources, secretarial, corporate advisory, technical, risk and internal audit. Kwanda Capital, acting as investment advisor to the Company, is able to propose to BK a portfolio of investments based on a unique co-investment relationship with Basileus Capital which allows it to have unrestricted access to review all deals in Basileus Capital`s portfolio. Kwanda Capital undertakes its own independent research of underlying companies and projects identified as potential investments to develop an understanding of the unique business opportunities of each company, the sector and business risk profiles of each opportunity as well as the pricing structure of each deal and proposed exit strategies. 2 Purpose of listing on the JSE BK has been set up as a closed ended investment vehicle. The capital raising and subsequent listing will provide BK with long-term capital required to generate acceptable long-term returns. This process affords investors the opportunity of participating in the investments to be made by BK and any proceeds thereof, by subscribing for Preference Shares. This capital raising process provides BK with long-term capital which is not subject to short-term changes in investor demand and which is positioned to cater for investors` potential liquidity requirements. 3 The private placement This private placement is not an invitation to the general public to subscribe for Preference Shares.
