Index Change Advice - 20130724 Rebasing of FTSE/JSE Consumer Services Index (J550)

               Rebasing of FTSE/JSE Consumer Services (J550)
                        FTSE/JSE Africa Index Series

                                             24 June 2013
The current capital index value of the FTSE/JSE Consumer Services Index (J550) is very
high and the index has a small number of constituents. Changes in constituents' share
prices cause exaggerated fluctuations in the index, making the index more difficult to
track.

To ensure seamless distribution and maintain the transparency of the index, JSE and
FTSE will rebase the J550 index by dividing the index value by 10 after close of business
on 23 July 2013. The index will remain an accurate measure of market activity in this
sector, whilst complying with distribution requirements. The JSE and FTSE believe this
solution will cause minimal disruption to clients and prevent a similar issue arising again.

Clients with historic database values should apply the rebasing after the close of trading
on 23 July 2013 and before start of trading on 24 July 2013, to ensure that records
remain accurate. High, low, open and close value for the index will also be affected. All
TRI index values, earnings yield and dividend yield values will remain unchanged.

No official historic values will be issued.

This change will be implemented from the start of trading on 24 July 2013, provided the
Index level does not reach 100,000 points before then; otherwise this change will have
to be implemented with immediate effect.
