FULFILMENT OF CONDITION PRECEDENT
The recommended offer and joint cautionary announcement of 22 April 2002
refers. This announcement detailed the terms of a recommended offer by
Nedcor to acquire the entire issued share capital of BoE (the "Offer"),
which offer is subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions precedent.
One of the conditions precedent was an obligation on Nedcor to raise the
cash funds required to discharge the cash portion of the consideration
offered in terms of the Offer (the "cash consideration") by 29 April 2002.
Nedcor has secured underwriting for the funding required to discharge the
cash consideration, and hence this condition precedent to the Offer has now
been fulfilled. The parties have agreed that the due diligence process,
which is a further condition precedent to the Offer, will commence on
Friday, 3 May 2002 and will end on Friday, 10 May 2002, after which the
parties will agree the final purchase consideration on the basis set out in
the previous announcement.
Shareholders of BoE, Nedcor and NIB are advised to continue to exercise
caution when dealing in their securities until a further announcement, which
will include the financial effects of the Offer on Nedcor and BoE
shareholders, is made.
