2. Related party considerations
The JSE Limited (“JSE”) has ruled that the Leases are deemed to be related party transactions in terms of the JSE
Listings Requirements as a consequence of Mr Gottschalk being a director of Value and the Lessee and furthermore,
as a result of Mr Gottschalk indirectly owning more than 20% of the shares in Value.
The estimated aggregated rental value (assuming annual escalations are applied for the full lease period) amounts
to R32 284 118.76. The aforementioned Leases will therefore be deemed “small related party transactions” in terms
of Section 10.7 of the JSE Listing Requirements.
The board of directors of Value (“the Board”) is required to provide the JSE with written confirmation from an
independent professional expert confirming that the terms of the Leases are fair insofar as Shareholders are
concerned.
Mazars Corporate Finance Proprietary Limited has been appointed as the independent professional expert by the
Board and provided the Board with fairness opinions with regard to the Leases (“Fairness Opinions”) in which they
have advised the Board that they believe that the terms of the Leases are fair to Shareholders.
The Fairness Opinions will be accessible for inspection on Value’s website at https://value.co.za/fairness-opinions/
for a period of 28 (twenty eight) days from the date of this announcement.
