by not later than 20 October 2016, the Debt Package has become effective and has been made available to the Subscriber, save for any condition requiring this Agreement to become unconditional; and

by not later than 12 December 2016, to the extent required, the Shareholders in general meeting have approved the Subscription.

The Subscriber shall use reasonable endeavours to procure the fulfilment of the Condition Precedent set out in clause 4.1.1 as soon as reasonably possible after the Signature Date and shall to the extent that such Condition Precedent has been fulfilled, prior to the expiry of the period set out in clause 4.1.1, furnish to the Company documents evidencing the fulfilment of such Condition Precedent.

The Company shall use reasonable endeavours to procure the fulfilment of the Condition Precedent set out in clause 4.1.2 as soon as reasonably possible after the Signature Date and shall to the extent that such Condition Precedent has been fulfilled, prior to the expiry of the period set out in clause 4.1.2, furnish to the Subscriber documents evidencing the fulfilment of such Condition Precedent.

The Condition Precedent –

set out in clause 4.1.1 has been inserted for the benefit of the Subscriber which will be entitled to waive fulfilment of such Condition Precedent, in whole or in part, on written notice to the Company at any time; and

set out in clause 4.1.2, cannot be waived.

In the event that a Party requests any reasonable extension of the due date and/or time of fulfilment of a Condition Precedent, the other Party shall be required to grant such extension, provided that the request is accompanied by sufficient documentary evidence of the fact that substantial progress has been made by the requesting party in pursuing fulfilment of the applicable Condition Precedent and that there is a reasonable prospect that the applicable Condition Precedent will be timeously fulfilled with reference to such extended date and/or time (should it be granted).

Unless the Conditions Precedent have been fulfilled by not later than the time and date for fulfilment thereof set out in clause 4.1 (or such later date as may be agreed in writing between the Parties before the aforesaid date) the provisions of this Agreement, save for clauses 1 to 4 (both inclusive) and clauses 8 to 20 (both inclusive) which will remain of full force and effect, will never become of any force or effect and the status quo ante will be restored as near as may be possible and neither of the Parties will have any claim against the other in terms hereof or arising from the failure of any of the Conditions Precedent, save for any claims arising from a breach of clause 4.2.

On the Subscription Date, the Subscriber shall pay the Aggregate Subscription Price by electronic funds transfer (free of withholding, deduction or set-off) into the Designated Account, and furnish the Company with proof of such payment.

In compliance with the Financial Markets Act, and against payment of the Subscription Price, the Subscription Shares will be issued in dematerialised form and will be credited to and reflected in a CSDP or authorised user account of the Subscriber's choice, on or as soon as practicable after the Subscription Date (but in any event by no later than the 5^th business day after the Subscription Date).

Without prejudice to the rights of the Company in terms of this Agreement or at law, the Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement should the Subscriber fail to comply with the provisions of 6.1 and fail to remedy such breach within 5 (five) business days of written demand therefor by the Company being made.

Notwithstanding the aforegoing provisions of this clause 6, upon the fulfilment or waiver of the Condition Precedent contained in clause 4.1.1 the Parties may nevertheless agree to dispense with the obligations imposed on the Subscriber in terms of clause 6.1, provided that such agreement shall have been reduced to writing and signed by the Parties.

be a separate warranty and will in no way be limited or restricted by reference to or inference from the terms of any other warranty or by any other words in this Agreement;

insofar as it is promissory or relates to a future event, be deemed to have been given as at the date of fulfilment of the promise or future happening of the event, as the case may be;

be given as at the Signature Date and the Subscription Date and every day between those dates; and

be deemed to be material and to be a material representation inducing the Subscriber to enter into this Agreement.

It is recorded that the Subscriber has entered into this Agreement on the strength of the warranties set out in clause 7.1.

CONDITIONS TO SUBSCRIPTION AND SUBSCRIBER'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including the fulfilment or waiver, as the case may be, of the Condition Precedent), the Subscriber will only be obliged to subscribe for the Subscription Shares if, as at 23h50 on the day immediately preceding the Subscription Date -

neither the Group nor any Group Company has disposed of any of its material assets outside of the ordinary or usual course of business;

no Group Company has been liquidated or placed under judicial management, whether provisionally or finally (and no application has been launched in this regard);

no Group Company has commenced business rescue proceedings under the Companies Act;

no Group Company has, in respect of the 18 (eighteen) month period prior to the Signature Date, committed an act which, if it were a natural person would constitute an act of insolvency as defined in the Insolvency Act, No 24 of 1936, or any other applicable Act;

no Group Company has, in respect of the 18 (eighteen) month period prior to the Signature Date, compromised with its creditors generally, or attempted to do so;

each of the warranties contained in clause 7.1 is true and correct in all respects; and

no interdict, judgment or other order or action of any court or governmental authority restraining, prohibiting or rendering illegal the implementation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in effect, and no legal proceeding shall have been instituted by any person (including any governmental authority) seeking to prohibit, restrict or delay or declare illegal the implementation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

Without derogating from the Subscriber's right not to subscribe for the Subscription Shares in accordance with the provisions of clause 8.1, the Subscriber shall also be entitled to terminate this Agreement summarily by giving written notice to that effect to the Company at any time upon the happening of any event described in clause 8.1. The aforegoing provisions of this clause 8.2 should not be construed as limiting the Subscriber's rights arising from a breach of this Agreement, as contemplated in clause 13.

SUBSCRIBER'S RIGHT TO BOARD APPOINTMENT

The Subscriber shall have the right (but not the obligation), at any time after the Subscription Date and subject to the Company having received the Aggregate Subscription Price in accordance with 5, to deliver a written notice to the Company, requesting the Company to procure the appointment of any person nominated by the Subscriber ("Subscriber's Nominee") to the Company's Board. Such notice shall be accompanied by all necessary documents required to enable the Company's Board to give effect to such appointment.

Upon receiving the notice referred to in clause 9.1, the Company shall be required to procure the exercise by the Company's Board of its powers in terms of the provisions of clause 25 of the Company's memorandum of incorporation in such manner so as to give effect to the Company's request contemplated in clause 9.1. The Company warrants that it has provided the Subscriber with a complete and accurate copy of the Company's memorandum of incorporation and that the Company shall not permit any variation of such memorandum of incorporation which would in any way prevent or frustrate the exercise by the Subscriber of its rights contained in this clause 9.

The Subscriber's Nominee shall not be a person who is disqualified from occupying the office of director in terms of applicable law, the listings requirements of the JSE and the Company's memorandum of incorporation and shall be required to undergo any induction training which any other appointee to the Company's Board would be required to undergo.

The Subscriber's right contained in this clause 9 shall fall away and no longer be of any force or effect in the event that: (i) the Agreement is cancelled or terminates for any reason; or (ii) upon having subscribed for the Subscription Shares, the Subscriber no longer holds at least 10% (ten percent) of all of the Shares in issue for any reason whatsoever, whichever occurs first. For the avoidance of any doubt, should the Subscriber hold less than 10% (ten percent) of all of the Shares in issue for any reason whatsoever resulting in it losing the aforesaid right, but thereafter acquires further Shares resulting in the Subscriber holding at least 10% (ten percent) of all of the Shares in issue, the aforesaid right shall not be reinstated and the aforesaid right is lost as soon as the Subscriber holds less than 10% (ten percent) of all of the Shares in issue for any reason whatsoever.

Should the Subscriber's right contained in this 9 fall away as contemplated above, the Subscriber -

shall forthwith be obliged to procure the removal or resignation of the Subscriber's Nominee from the Company's Board and from any other office within the Group, including the unconditional and irrevocable resignation of the Subscriber's Nominee, which resignation shall confirm that such Subscriber's Nominee does not have any claims against the Company or other members of the Group as a result of such removal and/or resignation and shall waive any such claims which the Subscriber's Nominee might otherwise have; and

hereby irremovably and unconditionally indemnifies the Company against any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense which may be suffered or incurred by the Company as a result of any removal or resignation of such Subscriber's Nominee from the Company's Board.

the execution of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder does not and shall not –

BREACH AND TERMINATION

to claim immediate specific performance of any of the Defaulting Party's obligations under this Agreement, with or without claiming damages, whether or not such obligation has fallen due for performance and to require the Defaulting Party to provide security to the satisfaction of the Aggrieved Party for the Defaulting Party's obligations; or

to cancel this Agreement, with or without claiming damages, in which case written notice of the cancellation shall be given to the Defaulting Party, and the cancellation shall take effect on the giving of the notice.

Neither Party shall be entitled to cancel this Agreement unless the breach is a material breach. A breach will be deemed to be a material breach if -

it is capable of being remedied, but is not so remedied within the Notice Period; or

it is incapable of being remedied and payment in money will compensate for such breach but such payment is not made within the Notice Period.

The Aggrieved Party's remedies in terms of this clause 13 are without prejudice to any other remedies to which the Aggrieved Party may be entitled in law.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

In the event of there being any dispute or difference between the Parties arising out of this Agreement (including but not limited to any dispute or difference as to the validity or otherwise of this Agreement, or as to the enforceability of this Agreement), the said dispute or difference shall on written demand by any Party be submitted to arbitration in Johannesburg in accordance with the AFSA rules, which arbitration shall be administered by AFSA.

Should AFSA, as an institution, not be operating at that time or not be accepting requests for arbitration for any reason, then the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AFSA rules for commercial arbitration (as last applied by AFSA) before an arbitrator appointed by agreement between the Parties or failing agreement within 10 (ten) business days of the demand for arbitration, then any Party shall be entitled to forthwith call upon the chairperson of the Johannesburg Bar Council to nominate the arbitrator, provided that the person so nominated shall be an advocate of not less than 10 (ten) years standing as such.

Any party to the arbitration may appeal the decision of the arbitrator or arbitrators in terms of the AFSA rules for commercial arbitration.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit any Party from applying to the appropriate court for urgent relief or for judgment in relation to a liquidated claim.

Any arbitration in terms of this clause 14 (including any appeal proceedings) shall be conducted in camera and the Parties shall treat as confidential details of the dispute submitted to arbitration, the conduct of the arbitration proceedings and the outcome of the arbitration, save as may be required in law (including, where applicable, by the rules of any securities exchange on which the shares of any of the Parties, or the shares of a holding company of any of the Parties, may be listed).

This clause 14 will continue to be binding on the Parties notwithstanding any termination or cancellation of the Agreement.

The Parties declare that it is their intention that this clause 14 will regulate the manner in which they will resolve any dispute or difference regarding the validity or otherwise of this Agreement, regardless of the fact that one of the parties may dispute the validity or enforceability of the Agreement.

The Parties agree that the written demand by a party to the dispute in terms of clause 14 that the dispute or difference be submitted to arbitration, is to be deemed to be a legal process for the purpose of interrupting extinctive prescription in terms of the Prescription Act, 1969.
