Preference share certificates may not be dematerialised or
rematerialised between Monday, 20 October 2014 and Friday, 24 October
2014, both days inclusive.

The dividend has been declared from income reserves and no secondary
tax on companies’ credits has been used.

A dividend withholding tax of 15% will be applicable to all
shareholders who are not exempt. The net dividend thus amounts to
331.15482 cents per share.

The issued share capital at the declaration date is 1,500,000
preference shares.

In the event that there is a change to the prime rate between the
preference share dividend declaration date (“the dividend declaration
date”) and the preference share dividend payment date (“the dividend
payment date”), the prevailing prime rate at the dividend declaration
date will be applied from the dividend declaration date to the
dividend payment date.
The effect of the aforementioned will be that the preference share
dividend will not be adjusted for any changes in the prime rate
between the dividend declaration date and the dividend payment date.
