              Notes:
       1.     The “before” column is extracted from the audited results of RBA for the year ended 31 December 2012.
       2.     The earnings and headline earnings per share were calculated as if the issues took place on 1 January 2012.
       3.     The figures in the “after” column assume that the 28 128 105 shares were issued and the cash was received on 31
              December 2012.
       4.     The net asset value and net tangible asset value per share were calculated as if the issues took place on 31
              December 2012.
       5.     The "after” column net asset value and net tangible asset value per share have been adjusted to include the
              estimated costs which have been charged to the statement of financial position in an amount of R 10 567 .

            The pro forma financial effects above are the responsibility of the company?s directors and
            have been prepared for the purposes of illustrating how the general issues for cash would
            have affected the relevant financial results and position of RBA for the historical financial
            period indicated and on a pro forma basis. Accordingly, such effects do not necessarily
            represent a true reflection of the financial effects of the general issues on RBA?s current and
            future earnings.



3.            RATIONALE FOR THE GENERAL ISSUES FOR CASH

            Funds raised from the general issues for cash will be used to pay outstanding creditors and
            will assist in improving the statement of financial position of the company.
