    The adjustments detailed above are comprised of the following:              
    1.   IFRS 2: Share Based Payments charge relating to the acquisition of     
         shares in TCS by Mvela and the subsequent issue of preference shares   
in settlement of the specific repurchase;                              
    2.   the impact of costs incurred on the cancellation of the management     
         contracts;                                                             
    3    STC on the share repurchase from Mvela; and                            
4.   STC on the dividend of R18 million declared.                           
    Notes:                                                                      
    1.   The pro forma weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue at   
         28 February 2007 is based on the increase in and the sub-division of   
the ordinary shares in issue at the last practicable date as set out   
         in paragraph 23.3 of the prospectus after taking into account the      
         repurchase of shares from Mvela and issue of new shares to Labat,      
         Mvela and the vendors, as set out in paragraph 23 of the prospectus.   
2.   The pro forma earnings per share are based on the consolidated profit  
         of the group, consequently including the minority interest.            
    3.   The assumptions on which the forecast income statements are based are  
         set out in paragraph 12.2 of the prospectus.                           
4.   The above forecast income statements take into account the effects of  
         the anticipated issue of ordinary shares detailed in paragraph 12.3 of 
         the prospectus.                                                        
    5.   The acquisition of the minority interests took place during the 2008   
financial year in terms of the restructuring and listing. The dividend 
         payable is in terms of the shareholders and listing agreements.        
    6.   The anticipated dividend policy of TCS will initially be to maintain a 
         dividend cover of 6.                                                   
Unaudited pro forma income statement and balance sheet assuming                 
The unaudited pro forma income statement and balance sheet are provided for     
illustrative purposes only to provide information about how, subsequent to the  
LTS transaction, the acquisition and the regional partner agreement, the        
subscription of 6 565 659 ordinary shares in terms of the private placement may 
impacted on TCS` results and financial position. Due to the nature of the       
unaudited pro forma financial information, it may not give a fair presentation  
of the company`s results and financial position after the private placement. The
unaudited pro forma income statement and balance sheet are based on the reviewed
interim results of TCS at 31 August 2007 as set out in Annexure 3 of the        
prospectus and reported on by the independent reporting accountants` report in  
Annexure 5 of the prospectus subsequent to the LTS transaction, the acquisition 
and the regional partner agreement. The unaudited pro forma income statement and
balance sheet are presented in a manner consistent with the basis on which the  
historical information has been prepared in terms of accounting policies. The   
unaudited pro forma income statement and balance sheet should be read in        
conjunction with the independent reporting accountants` report thereon as set   
out in Annexure 7 of the prospectus. The directors of TCS are responsible for   
the preparation of the unaudited pro forma financial information of TCS.
