RULING PUBLISHED BY THE SOUTH AFRICAN COMPETITION COMMISSION

Shareholders are advised that Distell takes note of the ruling
published by the South African Competition Commission regarding the
investment that SABMiller plc ("SABMiller") owns in Distell.

The ruling states that SABMiller will have to dispose of its
investment in Distell within three years of the conclusion of the
proposed merger with Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV.

As SABMiller does not have any representation on the board of Distell
and has never been involved in the management of Distell, the
disposal will not impact the way Distell operates. Distell will work
closely with all parties involved to ensure the most appropriate
outcome for all its shareholders.
