1.1  DETAILS OF ACQUISITION                                                     
History and nature of business of Ububele                                       
Ububele Holdings commenced business in October 2002, initially as a privately   
owned company.  In order to ensure compliance with BEE requirements, the        
majority shareholding, (now being 27.33%), was held by Mentele Investments      
(Proprietary) Limited, a consortium of black investors.                         
Ububele`s business is best described as one of beneficiation. Agricultural      
compounds are supplied to the farmer to protect and so maximise crops. Once     
harvested, fruit and vegetables are returned to Ububele by the farmer for       
beneficiation and export (e.g. fruit and vegetable juice concentrates to        
Japan). Ububele will remain on the value adding sides of the beneficiation      
process. It will not enter the mass food market i.e. production of staple       
foods such as bread.                                                            
In 2007 Ububele became a public company as one of the first steps towards a     
possible listing on the Alternative Exchange of the JSE Limited.                
1.2  Product and service description                                            
1.2.1     Agriculture                                                           
Ububele focuses on the development and distribution of high value and top       
quality crop protection chemicals.  In order to minimise risk and maximise its  
edge in the market, the company determined that sustainability would be         
secured through vertical integration - i.e. through Ububele owning both its     
suppliers and distributors.  The combined turnover of the Agricultural          
division was R337 million for the 2009 financial year.  The company outsources  
all foreign currency management to a specialist company.  Most clients are      
situated in irrigated farming areas, and there are rigid debtors finance rules  
in place.

continue and improve service levels.                                            
1.5  Rationale for the offer                                                    
The directors of both Milkworx and Ububele have identified key areas of         
synergy between the two companies, including distribution and marketing         
networks, production facilities and geographic footprint.  It is believed that  
the acquisition of Ububele by Milkworx will result in significant shareholder   
value being unlocked for shareholders of both companies.  The transaction will  
be a reverse listing in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements.                 
1.6  Terms of the offer                                                         
In terms of an agreement signed on 2 July 2009 and a reinstatement and          
addendum dated 7 September 2009, Milkworx has made an offer to acquire 100% of  
the issued share capital of Ububele on the basis of a share swap of 3 465       
Milkworx shares for every 100 Ububele shares held, subject to a minimum of 90%  
of existing Ububele shareholders accepting the offer, which acceptance has      
been received as noted above.  The value of the transaction is estimated at a   
maximum of R173 639 814, depending on the number of Ububele shareholders whom   
accept the offer, and the maximum number of new Milkworx shares to be issued    
in terms of the offer is 7 549 557 142, or 650% of the existing issued share    
capital of Milkworx.                                                            
Subsequent to the successful implementation of the proposed transaction,        
Milkworx will become a division of Ububele.                                     
1.7  Effective date                                                             
The effective date of the transaction is 1 July 2009.                           
1.8  Conditions precedent to the offer                                          
The transaction is subject to the following remaining condition precedent:      
the approval of the offer to Ububele by Milkworx shareholders in general        
meeting by 31 October 2009.                                                     
The JSE Alternative Exchange ("AltX") Advisory Committee has approved the       
listing of Ububele on the AltX.                                                 
1.9  Warranties                                                                 
Normal warranties for a transaction of this nature have been given.  In         
addition, SA Roux, whom is currently a director of Milkworx, will remain on     
the board of the company after the successful implementation of the proposed    
transaction, with responsibility for the performance and profitability of       
Milkworx, which shall be a division of the new company following the            
successful implementation of the proposed transaction.  Roux has provided

1.11 Prospects of Ububele                                                       
Ububele operates in a market that is poised for tremendous future growth with   
emphasis on food security, poverty alleviation and job creation.  With the      
growth of the middle class in South Africa and resultant growth in disposable   
income, the demand for more convenient, healthier and "fashionable" foods is    
growing at an unprecedented rate.                                               
On a global scale, the World Bank has recognised the needs of an ever growing   
world population and vast investment will be required in the production and     
distribution of food world wide.                                                
1.11.1    Trends that are likely to surface in the food industry                
Increase in demand for "wellness" foods e.g. lower salt, less fat, organic      
New foods sourced from "new" places e.g. Acai berries, goji berries             
Environmentally friendly and responsible production and consumption             
Upsurge in ethnically themed cooking                                            
Growth in bottled water industry, together with flavoured waters, enhanced and  
oxygenated waters                                                               
Rebranding and packaging of standard stapled to make them exciting e.g.         
flavoured salts, salts from different places, water                             
Portion control and healthy eating habits                                       
Consumer awareness and demand for information regarding production of demand    
1.11.2    Industrial chemical industry                                          
It is the opinion of Ububele that the size of the market in South Africa has    
grown in rand value terms due to price increases.  The estimated size of the    
market on supplier level is as follows:                                         
-    Industrial market at Dealer cost R180 450 395                              
(Survey performed by Enviro and BASF, March 2008);                              
The market is not growing in volume, but due to price increases and exchange    
rate fluctuations, the rand value of the market will grow.  The market is in a  
generic trend regarding products as more and more patent products are lapsing.  
Major changes are currently underway regarding groupings of suppliers and       
dealers.  Supply chains will be formalized in the future and access to all      
products all of the time would be something of the past.                        
The largest competitors in the primary industry are as follows:                 
-    Volcano Agro Sciences; and                                                 
-    Ecoguard Distributors / Dow Agro Sciences;                                 
The above competitors control 80% of the industrial market.                     
Barriers of entry into the market are mainly brand loyalty from both client     
and salesmen together with existing relationships between clients and           
salesmen.  Price will initially be a method of first entry, where after         
relationships, technical knowledge and new product brands are important in      
retaining the client.  The merger between Enviro Industries and RT Chemicals    
is inevitable because of current duplication as well as cross backup systems    
that could be in place.                                                         
1.11.3    Agricultural chemical industry                                        
The Agricultural chemical industry is influenced by internal and external       
elements. Internal elements that affect the industry are aspects like the cost  
of formulation, transport cost, actions by competitors in the market and        
patents owned by multinationals on specific products. External elements that    
affect the industry are aspects like weather patterns, the availability of a    
specific commodities; bio-fuel production and international commodity prices.   
Internal elements                                                               
Agricultural chemicals reached all time high prices during the 2008/09 season.  
Most suppliers in South Africa formulate approximately 65% of their product     
currently in China. The following factors therefore had a serious influence on  
the cost price of products during the last season:                              
-    The Chinese Government cancelled all subsidies to manufacturing companies  
in China;                                                                       
-    The Chinese Government closed numerous formulation plants due to           
pollution before the Olympics; and                                              
-    The Olympic Games that were hosted by China.                               
The indication is that prices will be much lower during the 2009/10 season as:  
-    The Chinese Government is expected to reinstate subsidies as part of       
their assistance plan to local enterprises due to the world economic crisis;    
and                                                                             
-    Transport costs are currently at approximately 21% off their high during   
the 2008/09 season.                                                             
Many of the competitors have already started to reduce their prices to the      
farmer.  Ububele is in a favourable position that the company currently has     
very little of the affected products in stock and will accordingly not suffer   
losses as result of the devaluation of stock.                                   
External elements                                                               
World stock                                                                     
In 2007 the World Bank announced that they expect a food shortage during the    
next 20 years.  This was before the real effect of the current world economic   
crisis was felt. In January 2009 Wasde (World Agricultural Supply Estimates)    
announced that the expected world wide carry over of wheat from the 2008/09     
season to the 2009/10 season will be 1 million tons more than expected as       
world wide consumption was 1.3 million ton less than expected. The expected     
world wide carry over of maize from the 2008/09 season to the 2009/10 season    
will be 12.2 million tons more than expected. This is mainly due to the low     
oil prices which made the production of bio-fuel not cost effective.            
The South African commodity market (Safex) is linked to the Chicago market.     
The price of wheat dropped from US$ 7.79 / scoop on 8 June 2008 to US$ 4.12 /   
scoop for delivery in July 2009. The price of transport for maize from the USA  
to South Africa dropped from US$ 128/ton to US$ 22/ton in the last six months.  
Local prices are as a result under serious pressure while the production cost   
for the current season was the highest in history. At the current local maize   
price of R 2000/ton a farmer needs to harvest 4 ton/ha on non-irrigated land    
to break-even.                                                                  
Most of the North West, Northern Cape and Free State Provinces had good rains   
in the past months which should assist farmers on non-irrigated land to         
harvest almost 5 ton/ha, although the current maize prices are only             
R1,700/ton. Sunflower farmers will harvest more than the required 1.5 ton/ha    
at R3,800/ton.                                                                  
The 2008/09 season was an exceptional season as it is unlikely that input       
costs will be as high as they were during the past season which will result in  
an even better year next year, weather permitting. The Ububele Chemical Group   
is fortunate that its clients are situated over 3 provinces with different      
weather patterns and that at least a third of them are on irrigated land.       
Clients are farming mainly maize, wheat, sunflowers, potatoes and sorghum       
which gives an additional spread in risk profile.                               
During the 2009/10 Budget speech by Minster Manuel he indicated that the        
development program for upcoming small farmers is a priority and allocated      
R1.8 billion to this.  This creates a huge opportunity for the Ububele          
Chemical group as the only real BEE Company in this sector.                     
CHANGE IN CONTROL AND WAIVER OF MANDATORY OFFER                                 
As a result of the offer, a maximum of 7 549 557 142 (or 650%) new Milkworx     
shares will be issued, resulting in a change in control of the company, and in  
terms of Rule 8.1 of the Code, a mandatory offer to shareholders must be made.  
In terms of Rule 8.7 of the Code, the SRP may dispense with the requirement of  
a mandatory offer where the approval of independent votes has been obtained.    
Shareholder approval will therefore be sought at the general meeting from the   
independent votes, to waive their rights to require Ububele to make a           
mandatory offer in terms of Rule 8.1 of the Code.  In accordance with Rule      
20.3 of the Code, shareholders are advised that the directors of Milkworx       
accept responsibility for the information contained in this announcement and    
the circular to shareholders, which contains details of the change in control   
and waiver of mandatory offer and that such information is, to the directors    
knowledge and belief (having taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is   
the case) the information is in accordance with the facts and does not omit     
anything likely to affect the import of such information.                       
Milkworx shareholders may provide the SRP with written submission by no later   
than 26 October 2009 as to why the SRP waiver should not be granted.  Written   
submissions may be delivered by hand, posted or faxed to +27 11 482 5635 and    
addressed to the Executive Director at the Securities Regulation Panel as       
follows:

INCREASE IN AUTHORISED SHARE CAPITAL                                            
As a result of the proposed transaction, the authorised share capital of        
Milkworx will need to be increased.  It is proposed that the authorised share   
capital of the company be increased from 3 000 000 000 ordinary shares of 1     
cent each, to 15 000 000 000 ordinary shares of 1 cent each, by the creation    
of 12 000 000 000 new ordinary shares of 1 cent each, to rank pari passu in     
all respects with all existing ordinary shares in the share capital of the      
company.                                                                        
RESTRUCTURE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS                                           
Subsequent to the approval of the proposed transaction, the board of directors  
of Milkworx shall be restructured as follows:

He also completed his bar exams and practiced as an Advocate at the Pretoria

S Roux (Existing CEO of MIlkworx)                                               
Stephan has always operated as an entrepreneur and started his business career  
in the 1970s with a contract to run the SST Cable Cars at the Pretoria Zoo.     
Thereafter, he entered into the catering business, running the main restaurant  
at the same venue for an eventual contract period of twelve years.  The         
catering business expanded into an opportunity to run one of the cafeterias at  
the University of Pretoria, where-after he was approached by Dairy Maid to      
become this agent for the Pretoria area.  He identified a potential             
opportunity to manufacture ice-cream for the informal sector market and in      
1986, co-founded Cream Star Ice Cream.  In 1990, Stephan established Avondale

for the luxury products market.  Avondale and Creamstar are currently listed    
on the AltX under the name of Milkworx of which he is the CEO.  Stephan is      
also involved in the plastics and packaging operations of two Cape Town-based   
companies as well as in property development in the Plettenberg Bay area.       
Stephan owns industrial properties in Pretoria, which are rented out to         
industrial companies.  In 2005 Stephan established a Bottle Blowing Facility    
in Silverton, Pretoria which manufactures plastic bottles for the Ice-cream     
and Dairy industry.                                                             
In Cape Town he has a Guesthouse Tourist Business which consists of a           
Guesthouse, and two Cottages in Cape Town near the Waterfront, two Cottages on  
the Breede River, Bonnievale area, and two Cottages in the Baviaanskloof in     
the Eastern Cape.                                                               
CHANGE OF NAME OF THE COMPANY                                                   
As a result of the acquisition of Ububele, it is proposed that the company      
change its name from Milkworx Limited to Ububele Holdings Limited.              
The name will be changed by way of a simultaneous name change and will be       
processed through CIPRO.  The abbreviated name of the company for the purposes  
of the JSE trading system will be UBUBELE, the JSE alpha code shall be UBU and  
the new ISIN will be ZAE000140182.                                              
The change of name will result in certificated shareholders of the company      
having to exchange their existing share certificates for new share              
certificates reflecting the new name of the company.                            
The old name of the company will be stated below the new name on all official   
correspondence for a period of one year from the date of the name change.
