Announcement regarding the granting of a call option Notice of preference shareholders’ meeting Cautionary announcem BK One Limited Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa Registration Number: 2011/008103/06 Preference Share Code: BK1P ISIN: ZAE000161352 “BK One” or “the Company” Announcement regarding the granting of a call option Notice of preference shareholders’ meeting Cautionary announcement 1. Introduction BK One preference shareholders (“Shareholders”) are referred to the cautionary announcements published 28 August 2014 and 18 December 2014 and are advised that BK One has entered into a call option agreement in terms of which the Company has granted a call option to Advanced Vacuum Alloys Limited (“the Acquirer”) (“the Call Option”) to acquire the Company’s entire right, interest and title in the shares held in Advanced Vacuum Alloys Proprietary Limited (“AVA”) a (“the Subject Matter”). 2. Rationale for the Call Option As disclosed in the Annual Financials for year ended 28 February 2014, the ability for the company to continue as a going-concern is dependent on the procurement of adequate funding for working capital. Possible sources of working capital were to: · sell part or whole of its respective investments; and / or · recover short-term receivables from its underlying assets; and / or · issue additional shares; and / or · or a combination of the above. The directors are of the view that the out-and-out sale of the whole or part of the Company’s respective investments did not present, at the present time, a realistic alternative. In order to recover short-term receivables from the underlying assets, the underlying assets would need to be fully funded. Various methods to procure funding for the underlying assets were considered and the most favourable option was the Call Option as it was linked to providing working capital and trade finance funding for AVA, the effect of which will stabilise AVA into the future while simultaneously securing the possibility of a liquidity event for the Company through the Call Option. Shareholders are also referred to the preference shareholders’ meeting held on 30 September 2014 in terms of which the authorisation of the subscription for and allotment of 800 authorised but unissued ordinary shares in the ordinary share capital of the Company was granted. The subscription for the aforementioned ordinary shares is subject to certain conditions precedent still to be fulfilled, however it is anticipated that these conditions will be fulfilled shortly. The combination of the Call Option and subscription for ordinary shares will in the opinion of the directors adequately provide for the working capital requirements of the Company for the following year. 3. Terms of the Call Option The terms of the Call Option are as follows: 3.1. BK One has granted the Acquirer the Call Option for a period of two years to purchase the Subject Matter; 3.2. in the event that the Acquirer exercises the Call Option, it shall issue convertible loan notes (“CLs”) to BK One in payment for the Subject Matter (“the Purchase Consideration”); 3.3. the Acquirer shall procure a listing of itself as soon as possible after the exercise of the Call Option; 3.4. the outstanding CLs shall bear interest at a rate of 2% per annum, compounded annually until such time as either: 3.4.1.the market capital of the Acquirer reaches US$68.5 million (“the Conversion Event”); or 3.4.2.the second anniversary of the date on which the CLs were issued by the Company (“the Long Stop Date”); whichever is the earlier (“the Conversion Date”); and 3.5. the Company shall be entitled, at its discretion, at the Conversion Event to serve a conversion notice to the Acquirer to convert all CLs held by the Company into fully paid ordinary shares in the Acquirer at the conversion price on the Conversion Date. 4.
