(subject to any applicable exemptions that may apply).
4. Dividends will be paid net of SA DWT, to be withheld and paid to the South African Revenue Service.
Such tax must be withheld unless beneficial owners of the dividend have provided the necessary
documented proof to the regulated intermediary (being a broker, CSD participant, nominee company or
the Company's transfer secretaries Computershare Investor Services (Pty) Ltd., Private Bag x9000,
Saxonwold, 2132, South Africa) that they are exempt therefrom, or entitled to a reduced rate, as a result
of any relevant double taxation agreement between South Africa and the country of tax domicile of such
owner.

dividend" (as defined in the South African Income Tax Act, No. 58 of 1962) for South African resident
shareholders holding shares on the South African register.
6. For the avoidance of doubt, SA DWT, and therefore the information provided in this announcement, is
only of direct application to shareholders on the South African section of the register.
Shareholders are encouraged to consult their professional tax advisers should they be in any doubt as to the
appropriate action to take.
