    Notes:
     1. The “Before” basic earnings and headline earnings per
     share have been extracted without adjustment from the
     unaudited, published interim results of Muvoni for the 6
     months ended 29 February 2012. The “Before” net asset
     value and tangible net asset value per share have been
     extracted   without   adjustment   from    the   financial
     information presented in the unaudited, published results
     of Muvoni for the 6 months ended 29 February 2012.
     2. The “After pro forma adjustments” earnings per share and
      headline earnings per share assumes:
     o Transaction costs of R480,000 directly relating to
        the transaction. This will not have a continuing
        effect on Muvoni’s financial results.
     o Reduction in royalty expense of R1.2 million paid to
        the Seller in terms of the Royalty Agreement for the
        6 months ended 29 February 2012. This will have a
        continuing effect on the financial results.
     o Reduction in interest income on the portion of the
        Purchase Consideration of R6.5 million paid from
        existing cash reserves based on the average actual
        investment rate of 4.5% for the period and increase
        in finance costs on the portion of the Purchase
        Consideration of R6.5 million paid from overdraft
        facilities based on the average actual overdraft
        rate of 11% for the period, being prime plus 2%.
     o Amortisation of the acquired intangible asset for
        the six months ended 29 February 2012 on a straight
        line basis over the remaining useful life of four
        years. The remaining useful life of the intangible
        asset is commensurate to the remaining term of the
        SAPS contract in respect of the AFISwitch project.
     3. The “After pro forma adjustments” net asset value and net
       tangible asset value per share assumes:
     o Payment of R6.5 million in terms of the Purchase
        consideration.
     o Raising of an intangible asset of R6.5 million for
        the acquisition of the intellectual assets.
     o Once-off transaction costs of R480,000 directly
        relating to the Transaction.

   percentage of the “Before” column.
