4. Jurisdiction
The Rights Offer does not constitute an offer in any jurisdiction in which it is illegal to make
such an offer.
The Rights Offer Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of
the United States. Accordingly, the Rights Offer Shares may not be offered, sold, resold,
delivered or transferred, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States or to, or for the
account or benefit of, United States persons, except pursuant to exemptions from the
Securities Act of the United States.
The Rights Offer does not constitute an offer in the District of Columbia, the United States, the
Dominion of Canada, the Commonwealth of Australia, the United Kingdom, Japan or in any
other jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an
offer.
Shareholders resident outside South Africa, the Republic of Namibia and the Kingdoms of
Swaziland and Lesotho (the “Common Monetary Area”) should consult their professional
advisors to determine whether any governmental or other consents are required or other
formalities need to be observed to allow them to take up the Rights Offer, or trade their
entitlement.
Shareholders holding SacOil Shares on behalf of persons who are resident outside the
Common Monetary Area are responsible for ensuring that taking up the Rights Offer, or
trading in their entitlements under that offer, do not breach regulations in the relevant
overseas jurisdictions.
SacOil shareholders should note that the Rights Offer is not being made into the
United Kingdom and holders of SacOil depository interests, as traded on AIM, are not
able to subscribe for shares pursuant to this transaction.
5. Circular
The Rights Offer Circular setting out the detailed terms of the Rights Offer will be posted to
Shareholders on or about Monday, 6 January 2014.

Shareholders are referred to “Annexure C: Major Subsidiary Companies” of the Revised
Listing Particulars, as appended to Circular, and advised that the total amount reflected for
the “Carrying amount 2013” column of R160,918,566 is inaccurate. The correct amount is an
amount of R69,324,186. The Company apologises to Shareholders for this inaccuracy.
