TRADING STATEMENT


In terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, companies are required to publish a trading statement as soon as
they are satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the financial results for the period to be
reported upon next will differ by at least 20% from the financial results for the previous corresponding
period.

Shareholders are referred to the company’s provisional results announcement for the year ended
31 December 2013 released on SENS on 31 March 2014, wherein the company mentioned that the Kilken
Platinum Proprietary Limited (“Killen”) operations would be affected by the strike in the platinum industry.
Kilken receives its tailings feed directly from the Amandelbult mine in Limpopo and the protracted strike in
the platinum industry resulted in a significant decrease in Kilken’s production since the strike commenced
on 23 January 2014.

Accordingly, shareholders are advised that for the six months ending 30 June 2014 the company expects to
be severely affected by the strike and expects that its basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and its headline
earnings per share (“HEPS”) will decline by more than 20% compared to EPS and HEPS for the six months
ending 30 June 2013 (“the comparable period”).

There is not a reasonable degree of certainty, at this stage, as to the range by which the EPS and HEPS will
be lower than the EPS and HEPS for the comparable period. An updated trading statement will be released
as soon a reasonable degree of certainty is obtained.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed or reported on by
the company`s auditors.
