The above Issuers are currently suspended due to various reasons of non-compliance with the JSE’s Listings Requirements. Although the above Issuers have been suspended, each Issuer is still obliged to comply with the provisions of the JSE Listings Requirements and issue updated reports to the JSE on the status of the affairs of the Issuer. The JSE engages with the issuers regularly to establish whether there is any prospect of the suspension being lifted and whether any value could be returned to investors (in the case of liquidation). Where the JSE has received confirmation that no value will be returned to shareholders or there is no reasonable prospect of the suspension being lifted, it will only then consider the removal of the listing of the issuer. Process Before the listing of an Issuer may be removed from the JSE, the JSE must, pursuant to the provisions of the Financial Markets Act No. 19 of 2012 and the JSE Listings Requirements – - inform the Issuer of its intention to remove the listing; - give the Issuer the reasons for the intended removal of listing; and - call upon the Issuer to show cause, within a period specified by the JSE, why the removal of listing should not be effected. After engagement with the above mentioned issuers, the JSE followed the above due process and provided all the issuers with an opportunity to make written representations to the JSE as to why the removal of the issuers should not be effected. After a decision of removal was made by the JSE, issuers were notified and no objections to the removal of their listings were received and the JSE will commence with the removal of the listings. Shareholders are therefore advised that the listings of the respective Issuers will be removed from the commencement of business on Monday, 5 March 2018 and that shareholders will remain shareholders in unlisted companies. Accordingly, the last day to trade will be Tuesday, 27 February and the record date will be Friday, 2 March 2018. 23 February 2018 Date: 23/02/2018 04:00:00 Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
