the Registrar of Companies on Wednesday, 3 July 2002.
Accordingly, all of the conditions precedent to the scheme have been
fulfilled and the scheme will become operative on Monday, 15 July 2002 ("the
operative date").
In terms of the scheme, scheme participants, will receive a scheme
consideration of R4,00 in cash, seven new CAM shares issued at R0,45 each,
and four CAM debentures of R1,25 each for every JCI Gold share held by them
on Friday, 12 July 2002 ("the record date"). Until Wednesday, 10 July 2002,
