Note that:

- In terms of the company's Memorandum of Incorporation, dividends will only be
  transferred electronically to the bank accounts of shareholders, while dividend cheques
  will no longer be mailed. If you have in the past received dividend cheques, please
  contact the Transfer Secretaries to provide them with confirmation of your banking
  details. In the instance where shareholders do not provide the Transfer Secretaries with
  their banking details, the dividend will not be forfeited but will be marked as “unclaimed”
  in the share register until the shareholder provides the Transfer Secretaries with the
  relevant banking details for payout.
- As no secondary tax on companies' credits are available, dividend withholding tax at
  the rate of 15% will be applicable to shareholders who are not exempt from this tax,
  which will result in a net dividend of 165,75 cents per share to these shareholders;
- Trencor's tax reference number is 9676002711; and
- Trencor's issued share capital at the declaration date is R885 340 (177 068 011 ordinary
  shares of 0,5 cent each).

Financial instruments carried at fair value

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses the recurring fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities.
These fair value measurements are categorised into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on
the inputs to valuation techniques used. The different levels are defined as follows:
       
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the group
         can access at measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
         liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Details of the determination of Level 3 fair value measurements during the year ended
31 December 2014 are set out below:

Long-term receivables and amounts due to third parties in respect of long-term receivables
are valued by discounting future cash flows. The discount rate applied to the long-term
receivables (denominated in US$) is 8,5% per annum (2013: 8,5%), and amounts attributable
to third parties in respect of long-term receivables is 10% per annum (2013: 10%). An
appropriate fair value adjustment is made to the net investment for the estimated timing
of receipt and the possible non-collectability of these receivables, and the related effect
on the payment to third parties. The net present value of the long-term receivables
and the related fair value adjustment were translated into SA rand at US$1=R11,54
(2013: US$1=R10,46).

The fair value of the obligations under instalment sale agreements is determined by
discounting expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current assessments
of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing
balances for fair value measurements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

Although the group believes that its estimates of fair value are appropriate, the use
of different assumptions could lead to different measurements of fair value. For fair
value measurement in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, changing one or more of the
unobservable inputs used, to reasonably possible alternative assumptions, would have
the following effects:

been calculated has been changed from contractual cash flows to free cash flows.

In order to provide a better appreciation of the results of the group's activities, a condensed consolidated income statement and a condensed consolidated statement of financial position are also
presented in US dollars, as virtually all of the group's consolidated revenue and assets and much of its expenditure are denominated in that currency. The amounts stated in US dollars have been
