3. Pro Forma Financial Effects of the Rights Offer

The table below sets out the unaudited pro forma financial effects of the Rights Offer based on the
published unaudited interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2012.

The unaudited pro forma financial effects are the responsibility of Gijima’s directors and have been
prepared for illustrative purposes only to provide information about how the Rights Offer may have
affected Gijima’s statement of comprehensive income had the Rights Offer been undertaken at the
commencement of the six months ended 31 December 2012, being 1 July 2012, and, in the case of
Gijima’s statement of financial position, had the Rights Offer been undertaken on 31 December 2012.

Due to their nature, the unaudited pro forma financial effects may not fairly present Gijima’s financial
position, changes in equity, and results of operations or cash flows after the implementation of the
Rights Offer.

Notes:
1. The unaudited financial information has been extracted without adjustment from the published unaudited
interim results of Gijima for the six months ended 31 December 2012.
2. Pro forma adjustments to basic and diluted earnings per Share (“EPS”) and headline earnings per Share
(“HEPS”) are calculated on the assumption that the Rights Offer proceeds were received on 1 July 2012.
3. Pro forma adjustments to the net asset value (“NAV”) and tangible NAV are calculated on the assumption that
the Rights Offer proceeds were received on 31 December 2012.
4. Estimated expenses of R13.07 million relating to the Rights Offer have been taken into account in determining
the financial effects.
5. The Rights Offers proceeds, net of estimated expenses, are assumed to have been used to repay a portion of
the senior debentures. The effect on interest is as a result of the spread change from 340 and 370 basis points to
450 basis points, relating to the senior debentures as well as the partial recognition of the breakage fees charged
by the holders of the senior debentures.
6. All adjustments with the exception of transaction costs are expected to have a continuing effect.
7. A statutory tax rate of 28% has been applied to the interest adjustment to the statement of comprehensive
income.
8. The closing price of the Company’s Shares as at 8 April 2013 was used as the ‘market value’ in determining
the factor to be used in restating the basic EPS and HEPS for the rights issue in terms of IAS33.

4. Further Notices

It is anticipated that a finalisation announcement in respect of the Rights Offer will be released on
SENS on Friday, 17 May 2013 and published in the South African press on Monday, 20 May 2013.

The Rights Offer circular, incorporating revised listing particulars and a form of instruction in respect
of letters of allocation, where applicable, will be posted to Gijima shareholders recorded as such on
the record date for the Rights Offer, on or about Monday, 3 June 2013.

5. Withdrawal of Cautionary

Given that the final terms, salient dates and pro forma financial effects of the Rights Offer have now
been finalised and announced, Gijima shareholders are no longer required to exercise caution when
dealing in their Gijima shares.
