Notes:
1. The dates and times set out in this announcement are subject to change, with the approval of the JSE and the TRP, if
required. Furthermore, the Offerors reserve the right to extend the General Offer as envisaged in Regulation 103. Any
change in the dates and times will be published on SENS, ANS and in the South African press.
2. The dates and times have been determined based on certain assumptions regarding the date by which certain regulatory approvals
will have been obtained and that Shareholders will not (i) exercise their rights in terms of section 115(3) of the Companies Act nor
(ii) give notice objecting to the Scheme Resolution as contemplated in section 164(3) of the Companies Act and vote against the
Scheme Resolution at the General Meeting, in respect of 1% (one percent) or more of all of the Peregrine Shares in issue (excluding
Treasury Shares).
3. All times given in this announcement are local times in South Africa.
4. The Supplementary Offer Documents will be published to the Peregrine Shareholders as at the record date as set out above, as well
as to the Peregrine Shareholders to whom the Circular and the InvestCo Prospectus were published, in order to ensure compliance
with clause 5.7.2 of the memorandum of incorporation of Peregrine and section 59 of the Companies Act.
5. Shareholders should note that, since trades in Peregrine Shares are settled by way of the electronic settlement system used by Strate
Proprietary Limited, settlement will take place 3 Business Days after the date of a trade. Therefore, persons who acquire Peregrine
Shares after the General Meeting LDT, namely, Tuesday, 4 August 2020, will not be entitled to attend, speak or vote at the General
Meeting, but may nevertheless:
• if the Scheme becomes operative, participate in the Scheme, provided that they acquire Peregrine Shares on or prior to the
Scheme LDT; or
• if the General Offer is implemented, participate in the General Offer, provided that they acquire Peregrine Shares on or prior
to the General Offer LDT.
6. No Dematerialisation or rematerialisation of Peregrine Shares may take place:
• on or after the Business Day following the General Meeting LDT until the Business Day following the General Meeting
Record Date; and
• on or after the Business Day following the Scheme LDT (if applicable); or
• on or after the Business Day following the General Offer LDT (if applicable).
7. Dematerialised Shareholders, other than those with “own name” registration, must provide their Broker or CSDP with their
instructions for voting at the General Meeting by the cut-off date and time stipulated by their Broker or CSDP in terms of their
respective custody agreements.
8. Any Form of Proxy not delivered to the Transfer Secretaries by the stipulated date and time may be delivered to the chairman of
the General Meeting before such Peregrine Shareholder’s voting rights are exercised at the General Meeting.
9. Subject to the terms of withdrawal of voting instructions or proxies in respect of the Resolutions, as detailed in paragraph 5.2 of
the Supplementary Circular, Forms of Proxy submitted for the General Meeting convened in terms of the Notice of General
Meeting, initially proposed to be held on Tuesday, 21 July 2020 and which has been postponed to Tuesday, 18 August 2020
pursuant to the Initial General Meeting Postponement Notice (as defined in the Supplementary Circular), remain valid in respect
of the General Meeting. Any Proxy Form Withdrawal Notice not delivered to the Transfer Secretaries by the stipulated date and
time may be delivered to the chairman of the General Meeting before the start of the General Meeting.
10. If the General Meeting is adjourned or postponed, the Forms of Proxy submitted in respect of the General Meeting will remain
valid in respect of any adjournment or postponement of the General Meeting.
11. Shareholders who wish to exercise their Appraisal Rights are referred to annexure 23 to the Circular.
12. The dates pertaining to the Scheme have been determined on the assumption that all Scheme Conditions will be fulfilled or waived
by Friday, 4 September 2020 and that Shareholders will not (i) exercise their rights in terms of section 115(3) of the Companies
Act nor (ii) give notice objecting to the Scheme Resolution as contemplated in section 164(3) of the Companies Act and vote
against the Scheme Resolution at the General Meeting, in respect of 1% (one percent) or more of all of the Peregrine Shares in
issue (excluding Treasury Shares). The actual dates will be confirmed in the finalisation announcement if the Scheme becomes
unconditional.
13. The dates pertaining to the General Offer have been determined on the assumption that all General Offer Conditions will be fulfilled
or waived by Friday, 11 September 2020. The actual dates will be confirmed in the finalisation announcement if the General Offer
becomes unconditional.
5. REVISED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE OFFER ON AN OFFER PARTICIPANT
5.1 Peregrine Shareholders are referred to the Circular, which includes the pro forma financial effects of
the Offer on an Offer Participant who receives the Share Consideration. The pro forma financial effects
have been revised based on the FY2020 Results, as detailed in annexures 1 and 2 to the Supplementary
Circular.
5.2 The remainder of this paragraph 5 and the table below set out the pro forma financial effects of the
Offer on an Offer Participant who receives the Share Consideration, as extracted from paragraph 3 of
the Supplementary Circular.
5.3 The pro forma financial effects have been prepared for illustrative purposes only in order to provide
information on how the Offer may affect the financial performance and position of an Offer
Participant who receives the Share Consideration, by illustrating the effect thereof on the basic and
diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) and basic and diluted headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) for
both continuing and discontinued operations, and the net asset value per share (“NAVPS”) and
tangible net asset value per share (“TNAVPS”) of an Offer Share that an Offer Participant will be
exchanging for the EPS, HEPS, NAVPS and TNAVPS per one InvestCo A Share or one InvestCo B
Share, presented separately for an InvestCo A Share and an InvestCo B Share.
5.4 Consequently, the pro forma financial effects of the Offer on an Offer Participant reflect a
comparison of (i) the financial information extracted and/or derived from the FY2020 Results, as
adjusted (further details of which are contained in annexure 1 to the Supplementary Circular)
(“Peregrine Pro forma Financial Effects”) and (ii) the financial information extracted and/or
derived from InvestCo’s audited financial statements as at 31 March 2020, adjusted for the Offer
(further details of which are contained in annexure 2 to the Supplementary Circular) (“InvestCo Pro
forma Financial Effects”), by multiplying the InvestCo Pro forma Financial Effects by the exchange
ratio of one InvestCo Share for every one Offer Share, in order to provide the pro forma financial
effects of the Offer on an Offer Participant who receives the Share Consideration.
5.5 The pro forma financial effects have been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Offer on an Offer
Participant who receives the Share Consideration, had the Offer been implemented on 1 April 2019
for purposes of EPS and HEPS and on 31 March 2020 for purposes of NAVPS and TNAVPS.
5.6 The pro forma financial effects set out below are the responsibility of the directors of Peregrine,
InvestCo and BidCo.
5.7 The pro forma financial effects are provided for illustrative purposes only and because of their nature,
may not fairly represent the financial performance and position of an Offer Participant after the
implementation of the Offer.
5.8 The pro forma financial effects have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), the Guide on Pro forma Financial Information issued by the South
African Institute of Chartered Accountants, the JSE Listings Requirements and the Regulations.
5.9 The pro forma financial effects have been presented in respect of the following scenarios:
5.9.1 Scenario 1: Offer Participants Elect to receive the Share Consideration in respect of
30 000 000 (thirty million) Offer Shares (being the Minimum Share Consideration
Election).
5.9.2 Scenario 2: Offer Participants Elect to receive the Share Consideration in respect of
40 327 465 (forty million three hundred and twenty seven thousand four hundred and sixty
five) Offer Shares (being the maximum Share Consideration Elections that may be
received before the Deemed Cash Election calculation is applied).
5.10 The independent reporting accountants’ assurance report on the pro forma financial effects on an
Offer Participant is set out in annexure 3 to the Supplementary Circular.

Notice to US investors in Peregrine
The Offer relates to the shares of a South African company and is being made by means of a scheme
of arrangement provided for under South African company law. A transaction effected by means of
a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer or proxy solicitation rules under the US
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “US Exchange Act”). Accordingly, the Offer is subject to the
disclosure requirements and practices applicable in South Africa to schemes of arrangement which
differ from the disclosure requirements of the US tender offer and proxy solicitation rules. The
financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with
accounting standards applicable in South Africa and thus may not be comparable to financial
information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the US.
If, in the future, BidCo exercises its right to implement the Offer by way of the General Offer, which
is to be made into the US, such Offer will be made in compliance with the applicable US laws and
regulations, including Section 14(e) and Regulation 14E under the US Exchange Act.
It may be difficult for US holders of Peregrine Shares to enforce their rights and any claim arising
out of the US federal laws, since Capitalworks, BidCo, InvestCo and Peregrine are located in a
non-US jurisdiction, and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of a non-US
jurisdiction. US holders of Peregrine Shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its
officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of the US securities laws. Further, it may be
difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s
judgement.
Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has
approved or disapproved of the acquisition, or determined if this announcement is accurate or
complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the US.
US Peregrine Shareholders also should be aware that the transaction contemplated herein may
have tax consequences in the US and, that such consequences, if any, are not described herein. US
Peregrine Shareholders are urged to consult with legal, tax and financial advisers in connection
with making a decision regarding this transaction.
Forward-looking statements
The statements contained in this announcement that are not historical facts are “forward-looking”
statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of substantial risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s, Capitalworks’, InvestCo’s and BidCo’s
control and actual results and developments may differ materially from those expressed or implied
by these statements for a variety of factors. These forward-looking statements are statements based
on the Company’s, Capitalworks’, InvestCo’s and BidCo’s current intentions, beliefs and
expectations about among other things, the Company’s results of operations, financial condition,
prospects, growth, strategies and the industry in which the Company operates. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and
depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Many of these risks and
uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the Company’s, Capitalworks’, InvestCo’s and
BidCo’s ability to control or estimate precisely, such as changes in taxation, future market
conditions, currency fluctuations, the actions of governmental regulators and other risk factors.
Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to vary materially from the future results
indicated, expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking
statements contained in this announcement speak only as of the date of this announcement and the
Company, Capitalworks, InvestCo and BidCo undertake no duty to update any of them publicly in
light of new information or future events, except to the extent required by applicable law or the JSE
Listings Requirements.
No statement in this announcement is intended as a profit forecast or a profit estimate and no
statement in this announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings per Peregrine Share
for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published
earnings per Peregrine Share. Prices and values of, and income from, shares may go down as well
as up and an investor may not get back the amount invested. It should be noted that past
performance is no guide to future performance. Persons needing advice should consult an
independent financial adviser.
