In accordance with the King Code of Governance Principles for South Africa 2009,
companies need to publish an integrated annual report from 2011 onwards. However
companies in this year`s survey were recognized for their pioneering spirit in  
producing integrated reports a year before becoming mandatory.                  
Paul Stuiver CEO said: "We appreciate the recognition as it highlights one of   
our key objectives - running a long-term, sustainable business."                
PPC was placed first out of a total of 57 JSE listed companies that were        
reviewed. Companies that were constituents of either the JSE Top 40 and/or the  
JSE`s SRI index were selected for survey.                                       
The company`s integrated annual report for 2010 is available on its website at
