Immediate Suspension and Subsequest Termination of Listing of Brian Porter Cummulative Preference Shares on the JSE

Brian Porter Holdings Limited
Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa
Registration number: 1945/019667/06
ISIN: ZAE000005534   Share code: POTP
(“Brian Porter” or “Company”)


IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION AND SUBSEQUEST TERMINATION OF LISTING OF BRIAN PORTER
CUMMULATIVE PREFERENCE SHARES ON THE JSE LIMITED


Immediate Suspension and Subsequent Termination of Listing

Preference holders of Brian Porter are advised that the JSE Limited (“JSE”) has
approved the immediate suspension and subsequent termination of listing of the
Company’s preference shares (“Preference Shares”) from the JSE official list from
commencement of trade on Tuesday, 10 November 2015.


Brian Porter was a holding company which derived its income from the sale of new
and used vehicles, service, parts and the rental of premises through its wholly-
owned retail motor trading and property owning subsidiaries. In the past, the
Company had its ordinary and Preference Shares listed on the JSE until the
delisting of the ordinary shares in 1998 following an offer which was made by
Imperial Holdings Limited (“Imperial”).


Brian Porter remained dormant post the delisting of its ordinary shares on the JSE
and its Preference Shares remained listed. The Company has since been deregistered
with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission, therefore, Brian Porter
has ceased to exist as a legal entity and as such the Preference Shares no longer
meet the primary conditions of listing on the JSE.


Final Redemption Amount

Each Preference Share will be redeemed in cash by Imperial for an amount equal to
its nominal value of R2.00. The listing of the Preference Shares will be terminated
upon redemption.
