Pursuant to the acquisition by Newshelf 1005 (Pty) Limited ("Newshelf") of a    
majority shareholding in the company, the board of directors was reconstituted  
on 26 February 2010.                                                            
Commentary                                                                      
Introduction                                                                    
The 18 months to December 2010 reflect a period of significant change for       
Andulela. With effect from 1 May 2010, as a result of the exercise of the AMI   
and JBPH put options previously reported and detailed below, Andulela took      
control of Abalengani Mining Investments (Pty) Ltd ("AMI") and JB Platinum      
Holdings (Pty) Ltd ("JBPH"), resulting in an 83.6% (previously 41.8%)           
controlling interest in Kilken Platinum (Pty) Ltd ("Kilken"). Consequently, AMI,
JBPH and Kilken have been consolidated into the results of Andulela with effect 
from 1 May 2010.                                                                
Additionally, in order to align the reporting periods of the newly formed       
Andulela Group, the year-ends of Andulela, AMI and JBPH have been changed to 31 
December, which has resulted in an 18 month reporting period ending 31 December 
2010.                                                                           
Investment in subsidiaries and goodwill                                         
As set out in the circular to shareholders dated 1 September 2008, the company  
acquired 50% of the issued share capital in Abalengani Mining Investments (Pty) 
Limited ("AMI") and JB Platinum Holdings (Pty) Limited ("JBPH") respectively to 
gain a 41.8% effective stake in the sole investment held by AMI and JBPH, namely
Kilken Platinum (Pty) Limited ("Kilken"). As detailed in the circular of 1      
September 2008 Andulela was granted a call option and Abalengani Platinum       
Holdings (Pty) Limited ("Abalengani Platinum") a put option over the remaining  
50% of the shares in, and all of Abalengani Platinum`s claims on loan account   
against each of, AMI ("the AMI option equity") and JBPH ("JBPH option equity"). 
As announced on SENS on 29 October 2009, Abalengani Platinum issued a letter to 
the company on 27 October 2009 exercising each of the put options granted to    
Abalengani Platinum to sell the AMI option equity and the JBPH option equity to 
the company.                                                                    
On 1 May 2010, the group acquired the remaining 50% of shares in AMI and JBPH   
and an effective controlling interest in Kilken of 83.6% (previously 41.8%). The
purchase consideration in respect of the options exercised, being an aggregate  
of R425 million, was settled by the issue and allotment of 3 531 660 296        
ordinary shares at a 30-day Volume Weighted Average Traded price of 12,034 cents
each on 4 May 2010, perfecting the put option transaction. At acquisition, the  
previously held associates were fairly valued, based on a Competent Persons`    
Report which gave rise to the goodwill on acquisition of the controlling        
interest in the now wholly owned subsidiaries and the resulting impairment of   
goodwill by an amount of R219,5 million.                                        
Financial review                                                                
For the period 1 July 2009 to 30 April 2010, the results of Kilken, AMI and JBPH
were equity accounted as associate investments. From 1 May 2010, upon completion
of the put option transaction, the abovementioned companies were consolidated   
into the results of Andulela.                                                   
The long-term liability of R5.3 million was repaid during the period and        
replaced with a working capital facility of R5.0 million.                       
Preference dividends on the cumulative redeemable preference shares due to the  
holder thereof (Newshelf) in the amount of R7.4 million were accrued and        
expensed as finance costs in the current period in accordance with the rights   
attaching to the preference shares. R2.1 million was paid towards the arrear    
preference dividends owing and a cumulative arrears amount of R10.1 million     
remains unpaid and is included in current liabilities.                          
The value of Kilken has been recorded at fair value in terms of IFRS 3 for the  
purpose of recording the business combination of AMI, JBPH and Kilken. As a     
result of the business combination, goodwill of R419 million has been raised in 
the financial statements of Andulela, net of an impairment of R219 million. In  
accordance with IFRS, management will continue to assess the fair value of the  
investment.                                                                     
In accordance with IAS and IFRS, management recognised a reversal of impairment 
of R26 million to the carrying value of the indirect investment in Kilken at 30 
April 2010 to reflect the fair value of the investment based on a valuation     
presented in the Competent Persons` Report dated 29 January 2010.               
Kilken                                                                          
Andulela owns an effective 83.6% stake in Kilken, a Platinum Group Metals       
("PGM") tailings retreatment facility that delivers PGM concentrate to          
Rustenburg Platinum Mines (Pty) Ltd.                                            
The results of Kilken have been consolidated into the accounts of Andulela for  
the period 1 May 2010 to 31 December 2010. The balance sheet and the results of 
operations of Kilken for the eight months ending 31 December 2010 have been     
summarised in note 4.                                                           
Events subsequent to the year-end                                               
With reference to the announcement on SENS on 10 December 2010, Andulela will   
acquire the entire issued share capital of, and all claims against Pro Roof     
Steel Merchants (Pty) Limited ("PRSM"), a steel processing, distribution and    
services group with six branches in South Africa, from The Rafik Mohamed Family 
Trust. The purchase consideration of a maximum of R252 million and a minimum of 
R168 million, based on the consolidated tangible net asset value ("NAV") of PRSM
and its subsidiaries, will be settled by the issue of a maximum of 630 million  
and a minimum of 420 million Andulela shares, as the case may be, at an issue

by way of the issue of a maximum of 112.5 million Andulela ordinary shares at an
issue price of 40 cents per share. The effective date NAV of GIBB Steel is
