IT IS RESOLVED THAT:

Subject to the passing of Extraordinary Resolution 4, the Terms and Conditions of the Group 1 Notes be and
are hereby amended by the insertion of the following new Condition 23 (Subsidiary Guarantee) and the re-
numbering of the existing Condition 23 as Condition 26, including all cross references to Condition 23:

"23.   Subsidiary Guarantee

23.1   The Issuer has procured that the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes issued under the
Programme are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors on the terms and conditions as contained in the
Subsidiary Guarantee. Additional Subsidiary Guarantors may accede to the Subsidiary Guarantee from time
to time. The Issue shall notify the Noteholders in writing of such accession in accordance with Condition 16.

23.2 If, after the Issue Date, any member of the South African Group becomes a wholly-owned Material
Subsidiary, the Issuer must, within 30 days of the date on which such Subsidiary is determined to be a
wholly-owned Material Subsidiary, procure that that wholly-owned Material Subsidiary becomes a
Subsidiary Guarantor by delivering to the Debt Sponsor a duly completed and executed Accession
Agreement, unless it is unlawful for that Material Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and such
unlawfulness is not within the control of the Issuer or the relevant Material Subsidiary.

23.3   If at any time after the Issue Date:
23.3.1 the aggregate contribution of all the Subsidiary Guarantors to the (a) Tangible NAV, (b) the EBITDA
of the South African Group or (c) the Trade Receivables,

is less than

23.3.2 85% of the (a) Tangible NAV, or (b) EBITDA of the South African Group, or (c) Trade Receivables, as
the case may be,

(such shortfall being a "Financial Support Deficit"), then the Issuer must procure, within 30 days of the end
of the month in which such Financial Support Deficit is calculated, that so many additional members of the
South African Group accede to the Subsidiary Guarantee as are necessary to ensure that there is no Financial
Support Deficit, by delivering to the Debt Sponsor a duly completed and executed Accession Agreement.

26.4   The tests referred to in Conditions 23.2 and 23.3 above shall be measured on the last day of each
financial year end and financial half year end of the Issuer (the "Measurement Date"), in relation to each 12
month period (a "Measurement Period") ending on that Measurement Date, by reference to (i) the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Issuer where the Measurement Date is the last day of February, (ii)
the unaudited consolidated reviewed financial statements of the Issuer where the Measurement Date is the
last day of August.

23.5 The Subsidiary Guarantee and each Accession Agreement will be deposited with and held by the Debt
Sponsor. Each Noteholder will, at its cost, be entitled to require the Debt Sponsor to provide a copy of the
Subsidiary Guarantee and each Accession Agreement on request. In holding the Guarantee and each
Accession Agreement, the Debt Sponsor does not act in a fiduciary or similar capacity for the Noteholders
and it does not accept any liability, duty or responsibility to the Noteholders in this regard.

23.6 The Issuer is entitled to request the removal of a Subsidiary Guarantor, as a Subsidiary Guarantor, by
notice in writing to the Noteholders. The Noteholders will not be entitled to refuse such request, if no
amount is then due under the Subsidiary Guarantee and the Issuer delivers a certificate to the Noteholders
confirming that the Subsidiary seeking to be released is no longer a Material Subsidiary and that if such
Subsidiary is released there will not be any Financial Support Deficit. Subject to the terms of the Finance
Documents, such termination shall take effect from the date of approval of such request by Extraordinary
Resolution of the Noteholders. Such termination shall not affect any accrued rights and/or obligations of the
Subsidiary Guarantor at the date of such termination. The Issuer shall notify the Noteholders in writing of
such cessation in accordance with Condition 16."

IT IS RESOLVED THAT:

Subject to the passing of Extraordinary Resolutions 4 and 5, the Terms and Conditions of the Group 1 Notes
be and are hereby amended by the insertion of the following new Condition 27 (Transaction Security
Accession):

"27.   Transaction Security

If, after the Issue Date of any Group 1 Notes, any member of the South African Group becomes a wholly-
owned Material Subsidiary, the Issuer shall ensure that each such wholly-owned Material Subsidiary
accedes to the Indemnity in accordance with the provisions thereof and thereafter forthwith executes such
documents as may be required by the Trustee or the Security SPV in order to accede to or provide Security
on substantially the same basis as contemplated in the Security Documents."
