Note:
The percentage of shareholding above assumes the implementation of all
proposals.
Mr Gary Itzikowitz, the Chief executive officer of Anbeeco, is also the sole
member of Compass Projects CC and accordingly a related party in terms of the
JSE Listings Requirements. Mr Ian Levitt is a non-executive director of Anbeeco
and Mrs Angela Cohen is deemed to be an associate of the Chairman of Anbeeco and
accordingly Mr Levitt and Mrs Cohen are deemed to be related parties in terms of
the JSE Listings Requirements. Opinions have been obtained from an independent
professional adviser in respect of these particular proposed issues of shares
for cash. These opinions are contained in Annexures 8A and 8B to the circular.
The financial effects of the specific issues of shares referred to above are
disclosed below under the heading "Pro forma financial effects of the proposals"
and are set out in Annexure 3 to the circular.
Further to the specific issues of shares for cash, issues of shares will also be
made in part payment of restraint of trade agreements entered into between
Anbeeco and Messrs Gary Itzikowitz and Irwin Steven Schmidt as executive
directors of the company who are deemed to be related parties in terms of the
JSE Listings Requirements. Opinions have been obtained from an independent
professional adviser in respect of the aforementioned proposed issues of shares
and are contained in Annexures 7B and 7C to the circular. The balance of the
aforementioned restraints as well as the restraint entered into between Anbeeco
and Mr Chaim Cohen as Chairman of Anbeeco, will be settled in cash. Mr Cohen is
deemed to be a related party in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements and an
opinion has been obtained from an independent professional adviser in respect of
the restraint concerned and is contained in Annexure 7A to the circular.
A promoter`s fee of R3,6 million plus VAT thereon is payable to Bonheur 92
General Trading (Proprietary) Limited, the management company of Anbeeco for the
promotion of the reverse take-over listing detailed in the circular. The
promoter`s fee will be settled as to R3,6 million by the allotment and issue of
new consolidated shares at R1,80 per share. Bonheur has agreed to renounce its
entitlement to the 2 million consideration shares in favour of the following
parties:
- Chaim Cohen: 400 000 shares;
- Gary Itzikowitz: 1 033 333 shares;
- Irwin Steven Schmidt: 400 000 shares; and
- Mark Raymond Taitz: 166 667 shares.
By virtue of inter alia the directorships of Messrs C Cohen, G Itzikowitz and IS
Schmidt in both Anbeeco and Bonheur, an opinion has been obtained from an
independent professional adviser in regards to the terms of the promoter`s fee.
The relevant opinion is reproduced in Annexure 6 to the circular.
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSALS
The table below summarises the pro forma effects of the proposals and is based
on the published financial results of Anbeeco for the 12-month interim period
ended 29 February 2008 and the adjusted audited results of AMU for the year
ended 29 February 2008.
The pro forma financial effects of the proposals are reported on in Annexure 4
of the circular and are set out in Annexure 3 of the circular.
The unaudited pro forma financial information of Anbeeco has been compiled and
reported on in terms of The Guide on Pro Forma Financial Information, issued by
SAICA. In compliance with the JSE Listings Requirements, the unaudited pro forma
financial information of Anbeeco has been prepared to provide information about
how the proposals might have affected Anbeeco, had the proposals been effected
on 1 March 2007 (i.e. for the 12-month period from 1 March 2007 to 29 February
2008) for income statement purposes and on 29 February 2008 for balance sheet
purposes.
The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared for illustrative
purposes only and, because of its nature, may not fairly reflect Anbeeco`s and
the group`s consolidated financial position, changes in equity, results of
operations or cash flows after the proposals. The unaudited pro forma financial
information is the responsibility of the directors. The independent reporting
accountants` report on the unaudited pro forma financial information of Anbeeco
is reproduced in Annexure 4 to the circular.

Notes:
1. Extracted from the audited interim results of Anbeeco for the 12-month
interim financial period ended 29 February 2008. The shares in issue as at
29 February 2008 numbered 14 675 641, excluding the shares held by the
Anbeeco Share Trust.
2. The "Before" column reflects the number of ordinary shares before the
initial issue of shares for cash, share consolidation, capital
restructuring, acquisition, issue of consideration shares, restraints and
related issue of shares, promoters fee and related issue of shares and the
specific issue of shares for cash. The "After" column reflects the number
of ordinary shares after the conversion of the shares in issue on a 11:100
basis, capital restructuring, acquisition, issue of consideration shares,
restraints and related issue of shares, promoters fee and related issue of
shares and the specific issue of shares for cash.
3. The number of shares in issue is based on the proposed 11:100
consolidation, the share capital restructuring set out in Annexure 11 to
the circular, the issue of 120 000 000 consideration shares, the issue of
20 191 705 new consolidated shares by way of issues of shares for cash, the
issue of 2 000 000 consolidated shares at R1,80 per share in part payment
of a promoter`s fee and the issue of 8 333 340 consolidated shares at R1,80
per share in part payment of restraints of trade.
4. It is assumed that costs incurred and still to be incurred in respect of
the listing, as well as the promoter`s fee, are written off against share
premium, in so far as such writing off is permissible in terms of the
Companies Act 1973.
The pro forma financial information is presented in a manner consistent with the
format and accounting policies of the company as reported in Appendix 4 of the
revised listing particulars. In quantifying pro forma adjustments, the company
applied accounting policies on the same basis as the company would normally
adopt in the preparation of its annual financial statements. In preparing pro
forma financial information applicable to adjustments in respect of material
acquisitions, the company`s accounting policies were applied. The pro forma
financial information was prepared in accordance with the policies adopted in
presenting the unadjusted financial information of the company at the relevant
date and for the relevant period even where new accounting standards may apply
subsequently.
Extracts from AMU`s financial statements are set out in Annexure 1 of the
circular. The independent reporting accountants report on the historical
financial information of AMU is reproduced in Annexure 2 of the circular.
ERRATA
Shareholders are advised that errata occurred on pages 24 and 50 of the circular
and are hereby corrected to accord with the circular formally approved by the
JSE and signed by the directors.
The pro forma financial effects as reported in paragraph 11 of the circular
(page 24) and Annexure 3 to the circular (page 50) are hereby corrected. On page
24, the adjustments in the column headed "Acquisition and issue of consideration
shares" are reflected in brackets, therefore as negative adjustments, whereas
they should all be positive adjustments i.e. without brackets, in respect of
EPS, HEPS, NAV and NTAV. On page 50 under the column headed "Acquisition and
issue of consideration shares" the adjustments in respect of NAV and NTAV are
reflected as negative adjustments whereas they should be positive adjustments
i.e. without brackets. On page 50 the number of shares referred to in the column
headed "Promoter`s fee and related issue of shares" is indicated as 200 000 000
whereas the number of shares should read 2 000 000. Also on page 50 under the
column headed "After all the proposals" the NTAV effect is reflected as negative
whereas it should be positive, i.e. without brackets.
WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY
Further to the announcement dated 11 July 2008 shareholders are referred to the
circular posted on 25 August 2008 containing details of the proposals as well as
the financial effects set out above in respect of the acquisition as well as
material proposals and, accordingly, caution is no longer required to be
exercised by shareholders when dealing in Anbeeco shares. The cautionary is
hereby withdrawn.
