In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Issuer's 7.25% senior unsecured convertible
registered bonds due Wednesday, 24 July 2019, as amended on Tuesday, 3 July 2018 (the "Conditions")
and the trust deed dated 23 July 2014 between the Issuer and TMF Corporate Services (South Africa)
Proprietary Limited, then known as GMG Trust Company (SA) Proprietary Limited, relating to such
convertible bonds (the "Trust Deed"), the Issuer hereby gives notice, in accordance
with Condition 10.2(d) of the Conditions, that the Issuer will early redeem (the "Early Bond
Redemption") the convertible bonds then still outstanding (the “Convertible Bonds”) on Tuesday,
25 September 2018 (the "Specific Optional Redemption Date") at an amount for each such
Convertible Bond equal to 100% of its Principal Amount plus any capitalised and accrued interest
(the “Redemption Amount”) up to the Specific Optional Redemption Date.
Aveng shareholders passed the necessary resolutions at a General Meeting held on Monday,
10 September 2018, to give effect to the specific issue of Aveng Limited ordinary shares (“Ordinary
Shares”) (the “Specific Issue”), pursuant to the Early Bond Redemption, and the matters incidental
thereto.
Having received the approvals necessary to give effect to the Specific Issue, the Issuer hereby gives
notice, in accordance with Condition 10.2(d) of the Conditions that the Redemption Amount payable
by the Issuer in respect of each Convertible Bond so to be redeemed shall be discharged by the Issuer
allotting and issuing, on the Specific Optional Redemption Date, to or for the benefit of the relevant
holder of such Convertible Bonds such number of Ordinary Shares as is determined by dividing the
relevant Redemption Amount of each Convertible Bond by ZAR0.10 (10 cents), being the price at
which the Issuer issued Ordinary Shares pursuant to the rights offer implemented by the Issuer on
Friday, 29 June 2018.
A detailed breakdown of the Redemption Amount per Convertible Bond is provided in the table
