NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER
Nothing in this announcement or the Tender Offer Memorandum constitutes an offer of securities in the United
States of America. The securities referred to above have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the
United States and may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The New Issue, and the guarantee
thereof, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other
jurisdiction of the United States. The New Issue is being offered and sold in the United States only to qualified
institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States to certain
non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.
Subject to applicable law, the Company or any of its affiliates may at any time and from time to time following
completion or cancellation of the Tender Offer purchase or exchange or offer to purchase or exchange remaining
outstanding Securities or issue an invitation to submit offers to sell Securities (including, without limitation, those
tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer but not accepted for purchase) through open market purchases, privately
negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, in each case on terms that may be more or less
favorable than those contemplated by the Tender Offer.
This announcement must be read in conjunction with the Tender Offer Memorandum. This announcement and the
Tender Offer Memorandum contain important information which must be read carefully before any decision is made
with respect to the Tender Offer. If any holder of Securities is in any doubt as to the action it should take, it is
recommended to seek its own legal, accounting and financial advice, including as to any tax consequences,
immediately from its stockbroker, bank manager, attorney, accountant or other independent financial adviser. Any
individual or company whose Securities are held on its behalf by a broker, dealer, bank, custodian, trust company or
other nominee or intermediary must contact such entity if it wishes to participate in the Tender Offer. None of the
Company, the Dealer Managers, the Information and Tender Agent and any person who controls, or is a director,
officer, employee or agent of such persons, or any affiliate of such persons, makes any recommendation as to
whether holders of Securities should participate in the Tender Offer.
OFFER AND DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTIONS
This announcement and the Tender Offer Memorandum do not constitute an invitation to participate in the Tender
Offer in any jurisdiction in which, or to or from any person to or from whom, it is unlawful to make such offer or
invitation or for there to be such participation under applicable securities laws. The distribution of this
announcement and the Tender Offer Memorandum in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into
whose possession this announcement or the Tender Offer Memorandum comes are required by each of the
Company, the Dealer Managers and the Information and Tender Agent to inform themselves about and to observe
any such restrictions.

relating to the Tender Offer are not being made by, and such documents and/or materials have not been approved by,
an authorized person for the purposes of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. Accordingly,
such documents and/or materials are not being distributed to, and must not be passed on to, the general public in the
United Kingdom. The communication of such documents and/or materials as a financial promotion is only being

persons falling within Article 43(2) of the Order, or to other persons to whom it may otherwise lawfully be made in
accordance with the Order.
Italy
None of the Tender Offer, this announcement, the Tender Offer Memorandum or any other documents or materials
relating to the Tender Offer have been or will be submitted to the clearance procedures of the Commissione
Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa ("CONSOB") pursuant to Italian laws and regulations. The Tender Offer is
being carried out in the Republic of Italy ("Italy") as an exempted offer pursuant to article 101-bis, paragraph 3-bis
of the Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998, as amended (the “Financial Services Act”) and article 35-
bis, paragraph 4 of CONSOB Regulation No. 11971 of May 14, 1999, as amended.

20307 of February 15, 2018, as amended from time to time, and Legislative Decree No. 385 of September 1, 1993,

any other Italian authority. Each intermediary must comply with the applicable laws and regulations concerning

France
Neither this announcement, the Tender Offer Memorandum nor any other document or material relating to the
Tender Offer have only been and shall only be distributed in France to qualified investors as defined in Article 2(e)
of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129. This Tender Offer Memorandum has not been and will not be submitted for
clearance to nor approved by the Autorité des Marchés Financiers.
General
The Tender Offer does not constitute an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell Securities (and Offers to
Sell will not be accepted from Holders) in any circumstances in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful. In those
jurisdictions where the securities or other laws require the Tender Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer or
similar and any of the Dealer Managers or any of the Dealer Managers' respective affiliates is such a licensed broker
or dealer in any such jurisdiction, the Tender Offer shall be deemed to be made by such Dealer Manager or such
affiliate, as the case may be, on behalf of the Company in such jurisdiction.
Each Holder participating in the Tender Offer will be deemed to give certain representations in respect of the
jurisdictions referred to above and generally as set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum. Any tender of Securities
for purchase pursuant to an Offer to Sell pursuant to the Tender Offer from a Holder that is unable to make these
representations may be rejected. Each of the Company, the Dealer Managers and the Information and Tender Agent
reserves the right, in its absolute discretion (and without prejudice to the relevant Holder's responsibility for the
representations made by it), to investigate, in relation to any tender of Securities for purchase pursuant to the Tender
Offer, whether any such representation given by a Holder is correct and, if such investigation is undertaken and as a
result the Company determines (for any reason) that such representation is not correct, such Offer to Sell may be
rejected.
The Company has a primary listing on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and secondary
listings on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, the Botswana Stock Exchange, the Namibia Stock
Exchange and the SIX Swiss Exchange.
