Shareholders are referred to the declaration announcement released by the
Company on 28 February 2012 ("the Declaration Announcement"), in terms of
which the Company advised that it will proceed with a partially underwritten
renounceable rights offer ("the Rights Offer") and a specific issue of

Shareholders are hereby advised that the pro forma financial effects of the
Rights Offer and the Specific Issue are as set out below.
The pro forma financial effects of the Rights Offer and the Specific Issue

The proceeds of the Rights Offer and Specific Issue will be used to repay
debt, to fund the acquisitions referred to in note 4 below ("the
Acquisitions") and to take advantage of new opportunities that the market
presents.
Set out below are the unaudited pro forma financial effects of the Rights
Offer and the Specific Issue, based on the reviewed group results for the
year ended 31 December 2011. The directors of Curro are responsible for the

Notes and assumptions:
1. The "before acquisitions, rights offer and the specific issue" figures
are extracted from the reviewed group results for the year ended 31
December 2011.
2. The net asset value per share and net tangible asset value per share
figures are calculated based on the actual number of shares in issue at
31 December 2011.
3. The earnings per share and headline earnings per share figures are
calculated based on the weighted average number of shares in issue at
31 December 2011. The diluted earnings per share and diluted headline
earnings per share are calculated based on the number of share options
issued at 31 December 2011.
4 On 1 March 2012, Curro acquired the businesses of Wonderland and Embury
College for undisclosed amounts. Curro has also subject to board
approval, following the final due diligence and Competition Commission
approval, acquired Woodhill College (Pty) Ltd and Woodhill College
Property Holdings (Pty) Ltd for an amount of R175 million.
5. The "pro forma adjustments for acquisitions" figures are extracted from
the reviewed financial results of Wonderland, Embury College, Woodhill
College and Woodhill College Property Holdings for the 12 months ended
31 December 2011, as reviewed by the reporting accountants on the
assumption that the acquisitions were on 31 December 2011 for statement
of financial position and on 1 January 2011 for purposes of statement
of comprehensive income.
6. 58 037 069 rights offer shares are assumed to have been issued at a
subscription price of 600 cents per rights offer share in the ratio of
36 rights offer shares for every 100 Curro shares held pursuant to the
rights offer thereby raising capital of R348 222 414.
7. 21 414 497 specific issue shares are assumed to have been issued at a
price of 600 cents to Thembeka Capital thereby raising capital of
R128.5 million.
8. The net proceeds of the rights offer and specific issue after deduction
of estimated costs of R1.263 million have been assumed to have been
utilised for the payment of the acquisitions and the repayment of the
PSG Corporate Services loan account.
9. The "after the rights offer" column is based on the assumption that the
rights offer was implemented on 31 December 2011 for statement of
financial position purposes, and implemented on 1 January 2011 for
statement of comprehensive income purposes
