CHANGE OF NAME OF THE COMPANY
During April 2020, the Company concluded an agreement with Gaia Infrastructure Partners (Pty) Ltd
(“ManCo”) that sought to terminate a contract in terms of which ManCo had been rendering certain
management services to the Company. One of the conditions of the termination agreement is that
the Company and its subsidiaries is required to change their registered names so as to remove all
references to Gaia.
This proposed naming convention will not only ensure that the Company fulfils its contractual
obligations to ManCo but will also align with the Company’s strategy.
Accordingly, shareholders are advised that the board of directors have decided to change the name
of the Company to Mahube Infrastructure Limited and that the proposed name change be presented
to shareholders for approval at the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) on Friday, 16 October 2020.
Mahube is a word in SeTswana that commonly derives from a phrase ‘Mahube a naka tsa kgomo’,
which refers to the dawn of a new day.
The Company has reserved the name with CIPC. In terms of the Listings Requirements, approval was
granted by the JSE on 2 September 2020 for the change of name and for the short name of "MAHUBE"
to be used with the share code "MHB" on the main board of the JSE lists and the ISIN will be changed
to ISIN: ZAE000290763.
The Company will remain in the “Financials-Financial Services-Closed End Investments” sector of the
JSE and will retain its Stat History.
The notice of AGM, which includes the shareholder resolution for the change of name, will be posted
on Thursday, 17 September 2020.
For a period of not less than one year, the Company will reflect the former name "GAIA Infrastructure
Capital Limited" on all documents of title, announcements and circulars issued by the Company in
brackets beneath the new name "Mahube Infrastructure Limited".
Shareholders should take note of the dates set out below, which may change as they are subject to
the confirmation of the filing of the relevant special resolution with CIPC and the provisions of copies
