3.   EXCESS APPLICATIONS
     Beige shareholders will have the right to apply for any excess claw-
     back shares and any such excess shares will be attributed equitably,
     taking cognisance of the number of shares and claw-back entitlements
     held by the shareholder just prior to such allocation, including those
     taken up as a result of the claw-back offer, and the number of excess
     claw-back shares applied for by such shareholder.

     If you are a certificated shareholder and you wish to apply for excess
     claw-back shares you must complete the form of instruction attached to
     the claw-back offer circular in accordance with the instructions
     contained therein. If you are a dematerialised shareholder and you wish
     to apply for excess claw-back shares, you must instruct your CSDP or
     broker as to the number of excess claw-back shares for which you wish
     to apply.

4.   FOREIGN SHAREHOLDERS
     4.1 Any shareholder resident outside the common monetary area who
         receives the circular and form of instruction, should obtain advice
         as to whether any governmental and/or any other legal consent is
         required and/or any other formality must be observed to enable such
         a subscription to be made in terms of such form of instruction.

     4.2 The claw-back offer does not constitute an offer in any
         jurisdiction in which it is illegal to make such an offer and the
         circular and form of instruction should not be forwarded or
         transmitted by recipients thereof to any person in any territory
         other than where it is lawful to make such an offer.

     4.3 The claw-back offer shares have not been and will not be registered
         under the Securities Act of the United States of America.
         Accordingly, the claw-back 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. The circular and the accompanying documents are not
         being, and must not be, mailed or otherwise distributed or sent in,

         offer of any securities for sale in the United States or to United
         States persons.

     4.4 The claw-back offer contained in the circular does not constitute
         an offer in the District of Colombia, the United States, the
         Dominion of Canada, the Commonwealth of Australia, Japan or in any
         other jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not
         be lawful to make such an offer. Non-qualifying shareholders should
         consult their professional advisers to determine whether any
         governmental or other consents are required or other formalities
         need to be observed to allow them to take up the claw-back offer,
         or trade their entitlement. Shareholders holding Beige shares on
         behalf   of  persons  who   are  non-qualifying   shareholders  are
         responsible for ensuring that taking up the claw-back offer, or
         trading in their entitlements under that offer, do not breach
         regulation in the relevant overseas jurisdictions.

     4.5 To the extent that non-qualifying shareholders are not entitled to
         participate   in  the   claw-back   offer  as   a result   of  the
         aforementioned restrictions, the allocated entitlement in respect
         of such non-qualifying shareholders shall lapse.
