RESULTS OF THE SCRIP DISTRIBUTION AND THE CASH DIVIDEND ALTERNATIVE
Shareholders are referred to the Company’s unaudited interim financial results for the six months
ended 31 December 2016, released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 1 March 2017 and in the
press on 2 March 2017 in which they were advised of the Company’s declaration of an interim
distribution for the six months ended 31 December 2016 from retained earnings of 24.21000 cents per
share, by way of the issue of fully-paid Clover ordinary shares with a par value of 5 cents per share
(“the Scrip Distribution”) or a cash dividend alternative to ordinary shareholders (“Shareholders”)
recorded in the register of the Company at the close of business on the Record Date, being Friday, 21
April 2017 (“the Record Date”).
As set out in the announcement, Shareholders not electing to receive the Cash Dividend in respect of
all or part of their shareholding were entitled to receive that number of Scrip Distribution Shares
determined in the ratio of 1.2682 Scrip Distribution share for every 100 ordinary shares held on the
Record Date.
Where a Shareholder’s entitlement to Scrip Distribution Shares, calculated in accordance with the
above ratio, gave rise to a fraction of a new ordinary share, such fraction of a new ordinary share was
rounded down to the nearest whole number, resulting in allocations of whole ordinary shares and a
cash payment for the fraction. The applicable cash payment was determined with reference to the
volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of an ordinary Clover share traded on the JSE on
Wednesday, 19 April 2017, (being the day on which an ordinary Clover share begins trading ‘ex’ the
entitlement to receive the Scrip Distribution or the Cash Dividend alternative), discounted by 10%. The
applicable cash payment was announced on SENS on Thursday, 20 April 2017.
In terms of the Scrip Distribution, 482 617 new ordinary shares were issued today to Shareholders
who did not elect to receive the Cash Dividend in respect of all or part of their shareholding, resulting
in a capitalisation of the distributable retained profits of the Company of R9,213,158.53. Shareholders
recorded in the register of the Company at the close of business on the Record Date holding 152 294
689 ordinary shares elected to receive the gross Cash Dividend of 24.21000 ZAR cents per ordinary
share, resulting in a total gross Cash Dividend of R36,870,544.21, which was paid out of the
distributable retained profits of the Company.
Share certificates, where applicable, were dispatched to certificated Shareholders at their own risk,
and the Cash Dividend payments were made/Central Securities Depository Participant/broker
accounts of dematerialised Shareholders were credited, today.
