ACCELERATED BOOK BUILD
NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES,
CANADA, JAPAN OR ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH IT WOULD BE UNLAWFUL TO DO SO.
EPP announces an equity raising of approximately ZAR 1 650 million through the issue of new ordinary shares (the “equity raise”).
The equity raise is subject to the requirements of the Company’s Constitution, the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited (“JSE”)
and the rules and regulations of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (“LuxSE”).
The equity raise will be offered to qualifying investors through an accelerated book build process (the “book build”) conducted on
the JSE and LuxSE. Investors may elect to subscribe for ordinary shares on the South African register in ZAR or elect to subscribe for
ordinary shares on the Luxembourg register in EUR. The new shares, when issued, will be credited as fully paid and will rank
pari passu in all respects with the existing shares and will be fully fungible with effect from listing.
In anticipation of the book build, the Company has successfully hedged EUR 110 million at an average EUR:ZAR exchange rate of
14.47.
The book build is now open and the Company reserves the right to increase the size of the equity raise and close it at any time. The
equity raise is subject to pricing acceptable to EPP.
Pricing and allocations will be announced as soon as practicable following the closing of the book build.
Java Capital is acting as sole bookrunner.
