with Masimo Share Scheme (Proprietary) Limited ("Masimo") and the Public
Investment Commissioners ("PIC") regarding the potential repurchase of a
maximum of 7 500 000 BJMH shares from Masimo at R2,60 per share. These
shares will arise from the conversion of 7 500 000 compulsorily convertible
debentures in BJMH currently held by Masimo, on a one-for-one basis, on 20
March 2002 ("the conversion shares').
The specific repurchase
Shareholders are advised that BJMH has, in terms of the abovementioned
agreement, received written notice from the PIC to repurchase the conversion
shares at R2,60 each with effect from 20 March 2002. Accordingly these

cost of R19,5 million.

Application will be made to the JSE Securities Exchange South Africa for the
listing of the conversion shares with effect from Wednesday, 20 March 2002.
