The Board of Steinhoff International Holdings Limited ("the Company" or "SIL")
herewith and pursuant to all formalities having been completed, which included

approvals by the Board and Human Resources and Remuneration Committee, wish to
announce that:
1. incentives relating to 18,903,653 shares have been granted in terms of the
new Share Incentive Scheme to 20 participants, at effectively a nominal value of
0,5 (half) cent per share;
2. the effective date for the granting of the rights is 1 December 2003 ("the
effective date") and the incentives will mature in 1/3 (one third) tranches per
annum from the third anniversary of the effective date, provided the following
performance criteria have been achieved:
2.1 a compound growth in headline earnings per share ("HEPS") equal to or
exceeding the average growth of companies included in, and comprising the INDI
25 Index ("INDI 25") over a three-year period from the effective date; and
2.2 the volume weighted average traded share price of the Company over the 30
trading days immediately preceding the date of measurement ("the measurement
date") to exceed the results of the following formula:
(((a - b) b) + 1) x c
where

weighted average share price at the effective date.
In the event of the criteria not being satisfied by the 3rd anniversary of the
