DISTRIBUTION OF A CIRCULAR AND NOTICE OF A GENERAL MEETING

Shareholders are referred to the announcement dated 10 October 2016 relating to the proposed
partially underwritten rights offer by the Company to raise a maximum of R50 million (“the Rights
Offer”) and in which the Company advised shareholders that:
-        the underwriter to the Rights Offer may be required to make a mandatory offer to
         shareholders in terms of section 123 of the Companies Act (“the Mandatory Offer”) depending
         on the outcome of the Rights Offer; and
-        the number of shares to be issued pursuant to the Rights Offer may result in the issue of
         shares with voting rights in excess of 30% of the voting rights currently in issue.

Shareholders will therefore be requested to:
-       waive the Mandatory Offer in terms of regulation 86(4) of the Companies Act Regulations,
        2011 (“the Waiver”); and
-       approve the issue of shares pursuant to the Rights Offer in terms of section 41(3) of the
        Companies Act, 2008 (“the Rights Offer Share Issue”).

Shareholders are accordingly advised that a circular setting out the details of the Waiver and the
Rights Offer Share Issue and containing a notice of a general meeting of shareholders (“the General
Meeting”) to approve the relevant ordinary and special resolutions to approve the Waiver and the
Rights Offer Share Issue (“Circular”), will be posted to shareholders registered as such on Friday,
21 October 2016, today.
