FURTHER CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING AME`S OFFER TO PURCHASE A 24,9%
INTEREST IN KAYA FM FROM NEW AFRICA INVESTMENTS LIMITED ("Nail")
Further to the initial cautionary announcement dated 13 July 2005, and those
subsequent thereto, shareholders are reminded that, during January 2006, AME
increased its offer for Nail`s 24,9% interest in Kaya FM by R4 million to
R25 million.
On the bases that:
- this offer is materially higher than the R19,1 million (15,1 cents per
Nail share) offered by Primedia Limited ("Primedia") as appears from the
Primedia announcement dated 17 December 2004 of its firm intention to
make an offer to acquire all the shares in Nail for Nail`s 24,9% interest
in Kaya FM;
- the Competition Commission has unconditionally approved the proposed
merger between AME and Kaya FM;
- the Competition Appeal Court is currently considering the Review and its
decision is awaited;
- the board of AME still expects a positive response from Nail to its
increased offer.
Shareholders are accordingly advised to continue to exercise caution in
dealing in their shares until a further announcement in this regard is made.
By order of the board
