The grant of options was carefully considered by the Remuneration Committee     
and was made under the Company`s Unapproved Share Option Plan.                  
The grant of options represent, in aggregate, 3.00% of the Company`s existing   
issued share capital. The terms and conditions of options remain the same as    
previously announced options.                                                   
The mid market price on 3rd August 2011 was 16.75p resulting in an option       
price (with an uplift of 10%) of 18.4p for senior management and also for the   
first third of options granted to Executive Directors and a senior              
consultant.                                                                     
The Board considers that the award of these options is in line with the         
Company`s policy of providing incentives to the senior management of the        
Group to achieve its continued growth as a substantial business investing       
across Africa.
