AGENDA
  • To consider and, if deemed fit, approve, with or without modification, the special resolution and ordinary resolution set out below. The special resolution relates to an amendment to the Company's Memorandum of Incorporation and the ordinary resolution relates to enabling any director of the Company to do all things and sign all documents necessary in order to give effect to the special resolution.

Special Business: SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 1: AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY'S MEMORANDUM OF INCORPORATION Resolved that clause 20.4 of the Company's Memorandum of Incorporation, which read as follows:

"20.4 In addition to other meetings of the Company that may be convened from time to time, the Company shall convene an annual general meeting of its Shareholders once in each calendar year. An annual general meeting shall be held within 6 (six) months after the expiration of the financial year of the Company."

be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following clause:

"20.4 In addition to other meetings of the Company that may be convened from time to time, the Company shall convene an annual general meeting of its Shareholders once in every calendar year but no more than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting or within an extended time allowed by the Companies Tribunal on good cause shown."

Voting requirement

Special Resolution Number 1 will, in terms of the Companies Act and the Company's Memorandum of Incorporation, require the support of at least 75% of the total number of votes exercised by shareholders, present or by proxy and entitled to vote on such resolution at the General Meeting, to be approved.

Explanatory note

The board of directors of the Company is of the view that the current provisions of clause 20.4 of the Company's Memorandum of Incorporation, prescribing, inter alia, that an Annual General Meeting shall be convened once every calendar year and within 6 (six) months after the expiration of the financial year of the Company is overly burdensome and restrictive, and that it would be in the best interest of the Company to align clause 20.4 with section 61(7)(b) of the Companies Act, 2008, prescribing that such Annual General Meeting be held once in every calendar year but no more than 15 months after the date of the previous Annual General Meeting or within such extended time allowed by the Companies Tribunal, on good cause shown.

Ordinary Business: ORDINARY RESOLUTION NUMBER 1: AUTHORITY GRANTED TO DIRECTORS AND COMPANY SECRETARY

"Resolved that any director of the Company and/or the Company Secretary be and is hereby authorised to do all such things and sign all such documents as may be necessary for or incidental to the implementation of Special Resolution Number 1.

Voting requirement

Ordinary Resolution Number 1 will, in terms of the Companies Act and the Company's Memorandum of Incorporation, require the support of a simple majority, which is more than 50% of the votes exercised by shareholders, present or by proxy and entitled to vote on such resolution at the General Meeting, to be approved.

Explanatory note

The adoption of Ordinary Resolution Number 1 will authorise any director and the Company Secretary to do all such things as may be necessary to implement Special Resolution Number 1.

QUORUM

The quorum for the purposes of considering the resolutions above shall consist of at least three Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on at least one matter at the General Meeting. In addition, a quorum shall comprise 25% of all the voting rights that are entitled to be exercised by Shareholders in respect of at least one matter to be decided at the General Meeting.

Identification

Section 63(1) of the Companies Act requires meeting participants (including proxies) to provide the person presiding the meeting with satisfactory identification. The Company will regard the presentation of participants' original drivers' licences, identity documents or passports to be satisfactory "documentation".

Attendance and Voting at the General Meeting and Proxies

A shareholder of the Company entitled to attend, speak, and vote at the General Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy or proxies to attend, speak and, on a poll, vote in his stead. The proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A form of proxy is attached for the convenience of any certificated shareholder and own name registered dematerialised shareholder who cannot attend the General Meeting, but who wishes to be represented.

Additional forms of proxy may also be obtained on request from the Company's registered office. Proxy forms may be presented any time prior to or at the General Meeting and also at the Company's registered office, 46 Eden Park Drive, Mkondeni, Pietermaritzburg, or the Company's transfer secretary, Computershare Investor Services (Pty) Ltd, Rosebank Towers, 15 Bierman Avenue, Rosebank, Johannesburg, 48 hours before the commencement of the General Meeting, being by 15:30 on Thursday 14 September 2017. Any member who completes and lodges a form of proxy will nevertheless be entitled to attend and vote in person at the General Meeting should the member subsequently decide to do so.

On a show of hands, every shareholder of the Company present in person or by proxy shall have 1 (one) vote only, irrespective of the number of shares he holds or represents, provided that a proxy shall, irrespective of the number of members he represents have only 1 (one) vote. On a poll, every shareholder of the Company who is present in person or represented by proxy, shall have one vote for every share held in the Company by such shareholder.

Shareholders who have dematerialised their ordinary shares through a CSDP or broker, other than own name registered dematerialised shareholders, and who wish to attend the General Meeting must request their CSDP or

broker to issue them with a Letter of Representation. Alternatively dematerialised shareholders other than own name registered dematerialised shareholders, who wish to be represented, must provide their CSDP or broker with their voting instructions in terms of the custody agreement between them and their CSDP or broker in the manner and by time-frame stipulated.

Any shareholder of the Company may authorise any person to act as its representative at the General Meeting. Please also note that section 63(1) of the Companies Act, requires that persons wishing to participate in the General Meeting (including the aforementioned representative) provide satisfactory identification before they may so participate.

Voting will be performed by way of a poll so that each shareholder present or represented by way of proxy will be entitled to vote the number of shares held or represented by them.

Equity shares held by a share trust or scheme will not have their votes at the General Meeting taken into account for the purposes of resolutions proposed in terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE.

Unlisted shares (if applicable) and shares held as treasury shares may not vote.
