Notice of General Meeting

Notice is hereby given that a General Meeting of Shareholders (“General
Meeting”) will be held at the offices of Numis Securities Limited, The
London Stock Exchange Building,         10 Paternoster Square, London

attendees will be required to show ID in order to gain entry to the meeting
venue.

The resolutions passed at the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on 25
November 2016 did not include the customary resolution to disapply the
statutory pre-emption rights or, as is required in terms of the Listings
Requirements of the JSE Limited (“JSE”), to allow the Company to carry out
a general issue of ordinary shares for cash (“General Issue”).  The
Company now wishes to obtain the rights to provide the board of directors
(“Board”) with the flexibility to proceed with a General Issue, as and
when suitable opportunities arise.

Accordingly, the General Meeting is being convened in order to propose,
amongst other things, a resolution to disapply the statutory pre-emption
rights and a resolution as required by the JSE to allow the Company to proceed
with a General Issue.

A circular to Shareholders (“the Circular”) setting out details of the
proposed resolutions, including the notice convening the General Meeting, will
be posted to Shareholders on Tuesday, 17 January 2017.
