Pallinghurst trading statement

Pallinghurst is reasonably certain that its loss and headline loss per share will be USc 10.6 for the period to 30
June 2017 compared to a loss and headline loss per share of USc 4.3 for the comparative period to 30 June
2016. In ZAR terms the loss and headline loss per share will be ZAR1.39 (ZAR0.67 loss and headline loss per
share for the comparative period).

This is primarily attributable to decreases in the valuation of Pallinghurst’s investments, which are held at fair
value. The fall in the Gemfields share price accounts for the majority of the unrealised loss for the six month
period.

Net Asset Value (“NAV”):            ZAR4.7 billion (31 December 2016: ZAR5.0 billion)
NAV Per Share1:                     ZAR4.36 (31 December 2016: ZAR6.61)

In US$ terms, Pallinghurst expects NAV to be US$363.1 million at 30 June 2017 (US$366.9 million at 31
December 2016) and NAV Per Share1 to be US$0.33 at 30 June 2017 (US$0.48 at 31 December 2016).
