The Disposal will become effective on or about 1 July 2018 (the “Effective Date”). 2. OVERVIEW OF INTIBANE COMPLEX The Intibane Complex comprises opencast coal mining operations at Intibane 1 and Intibane 2 collieries. The Intibane Complex is located approximately 14km west of Ogies in Mpumalanga and comprises portions of the farm Vlakvarkfontein 213 IR.

The R555 road passes to the north of the property and the Kendal Power Station is situated 13km east of Intibane Complex. At Intibane 2, production which commenced during the 2016 financial year has progressed well with the crushed ROM being partially upgraded through a XRT plant. Infrastructure from Intibane 1 is currently still in place and is utilised by Intibane. 2. Mining at Intibane Complex is contracted out to an opencast mining contractor and the crushing, screening and XRT plants are operated on contract. 3. THE DISPOSAL 3.1.

Application of sale proceeds The Consideration will be utilised to reduce short term borrowings of the group and to fund strategic growth options. 3.4. Suspensive conditions There are no outstanding suspensive conditions to the Disposal. 3.5. Value of the net assets and profits attributable to the net assets of the Disposal The value of the net assets that are the subject of the Disposal is R39 million and the profits attributable to the net assets that are the subject of the Disposal, is R37 million for the year ended 31 March 2018. 4. CATEGORISATION OF THE DISPOSAL The Disposal is classified as a Category 2 transaction in terms of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, and accordingly no shareholder approval is required. 5.
