In terms of section 7.6 (c) of the Debt Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, investors are
advised of the below restatements in the Annual Financial Statements.
Restatement of investment classes
Sanlam Life Insurance Limited through its Bermuda branch, issued life insurance policies that
were backed by an investment policy issued by a 3rd party with the underlying assets being held
in investment funds. These assets were correctly classified as investment funds until 31
December 2015. This investment policy was terminated effective 1 January 2016 and was
replaced by investments in various asset classes. The administration process for the
classification of these assets in the relevant investment asset classes was not amended
appropriately by the end of 31 December 2016, resulting in an incorrect classification on the
statement of financial position with no impact on the statement of comprehensive income. The 31
December 2016 information is accordingly restated for this error.
