    South African Register: Increase in Dividend Withholding Tax by the South
    African Minister of Finance

    The Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan announced on 22 February 2017 during the
    delivery of the 2017 Budget an increase in the Dividend Withholding Tax from
    15% to 20%. The JSE has consulted with the South African Revenue Service and
    National Treasury and we have been advised that the effective date of the new
    rate is in respect of all dividends paid on or after 22 February 2017.

    Further to the above, and with reference to the Company's unaudited interim
    results for the six months ended 31 December 2016 and dividend declaration,
    published on SENS on 22 February 2017, shareholders on the South African
    register are advised to refer to the updated dividend tax information paragraph
    set out below:

    South Africa Register: Dividend tax Information

    South African Dividend Withholding Tax, at a rate of 20%, will be withheld from
    the gross interim dividend of 9.09791 ZAR cents to be paid to shareholders on
    the South African register, unless a shareholder qualifies for an exemption.
    After Dividend Withholding Tax has been withheld, the net dividend will be
    7.27833 ZAR cents per ordinary share.

    The interim dividend is regarded as a 'foreign dividend' for the purposes of
    the South African Dividend Withholding Tax.

    The Company's UK Income Tax reference number is 948/L32120.

    For the avoidance of doubt, Dividend Withholding Tax and the information
    provided above applies only to shareholders on the South African register.
