3.   CHANGE STATEMENT

     The Full Announcement contains no modifications to that which was announced on SENS
     on 31 May 2021, save for the following adjustments made to align the Summarised
     Financial Statements with the Audited Annual Financial Statements:

     Segmental report reclassifications –

     Reclassifications of segment assets and liabilities between Corporate Services and Food
     Division:

     -   The change in segment assets is due to the reclassification of R3,000 from
         Corporate Services to the Food Division. This has no impact on the total assets of
         the group; and

     -   The change in segment liabilities is due to the reclassification of R1,547,000 from
         Corporate Services to the Food Division. This has no impact on the total liabilities of
         the group.

     Statement of changes in equity –

     Updated statement of changes in equity:

     -   The change is due to the omission of the equity-settled share-based payments
         reserve information, which balance at 28 February 2021 total R3,863,000, in the
         statement itself. This inclusion has no impact on the total equity balance of the
         group.

     No other balances or amounts within the Summarised Financial Statements were
     affected by this reclassification, and furthermore, no changes were made to the Audited
     Annual Financial Statements.
