The Land and Agricultural Development Bank of South Africa
(JSE Code: BILB)
(“Land Bank” or the “Issuer”)
For release: Monday 11 January 2021
Land Bank Buy-Back Offer Invitation: Offer to buy back 10% of nominal amount outstanding on notes issued in terms of Domestic Medium Term Note
(“DMTN”) programmes listed on the JSE
Defined terms used in this SENS announcement shall bear the meaning as defined in Land Bank's ZAR20 Billion DMTN Programme dated 18 October 2010
(“2010 DMTN Programme”) and its ZAR30 Billion DMTN Programme dated 13 March 2017 (“2017 DMTN Programme”) listed on the Interest Rate Market of the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange, unless inconsistent with the context or separately defined herein.
In the SENS announcements of 22 September 2020 and 23 November 2020, Land Bank confirmed that it would be making payment of the (5%) Part Capital Reduction
Repayment (as defined in, and) on the basis described in the SENS of 22 September 2020. The payment would be made by the end of February 2021.
Increase in Capital Repayment
Land Bank has certain semi-annual capital amortisation loan repayments that it is obliged to pay to its international funders during February and March 2021, and to
uphold the INSOL principles and align the South African lenders, Land Bank has decided to make an additional repayment of 5% of the nominal capital outstanding to
financial creditors who are not receiving such an amortisation loan repayment. A commitment was provided to South African Lenders that the first 5% Part Capital
Reduction Repayment would be paid out before end February 2021. The next of these semi-annual capital amortisation payments to Land Bank’s international funders
are due during February and March 2021 and Land Bank has therefore decided to increase the 5% capital repayment amount to a 10% capital repayment amount and
to implement such payment before end February 2021.
Land Bank is therefore hereby offering to buy back, directly from each holder of the Buy-Back Offer Notes (as defined below), 10% of the Nominal Amount of all Buy-
Back Offer Notes, held by each Noteholder, plus provide as additional consideration, any accrued, but unpaid interest (calculated in accordance with the Terms and
2
Conditions of the relevant Notes) from the last Interest Payment Date to the Settlement date (“Accrued, but Unpaid Interest”) on such 10% of the aggregate Nominal
Amount of the relevant Buy-Back Offer Notes held by each Noteholder (“Purchase Price”) (the Purchase Price shall be determined on Trade Date for each relevant
Buy-Back Offer Note), subject to certain terms and conditions set out below (the “Buy-Back Offer Invitation”).
Land Bank has today, via the CSD, and annexed hereto, issued a buy-back instruction form (the “Buy-Back Instruction Form”) relating to an invitation to noteholders
of listed, non-matured, notes issued by Land Bank under the 2010 DMTN Programme and the 2017 DMTN Programme (together the “Noteholders”).
