1.   Legal Proceedings                                                          
     As advised via SENS on 22 August 2003 the legal proceedings between the    
     Group, a former director and entities controlled by that director were     
resolved during the period under review.                                   
     Pursuant to this settlement, an entity controlled by the former director   
     was paid an amount of R550 000 and he was appointed to the Board of the two
     listed Companies.                                                          
2.   Board of Directors                                                         
     In the period under review P K Germishuizen resigned as a director of      
     Vaalauto Limited and S F Germishuizen (Snr) was appointed as a director of 
     both Companies.                                                            
The Boards of the two Companies now consist of:                            
     Executive Directors: C J Esterhuizen and S F Germishuizen (Jnr).           
     Non-executive Directors: G A J Germishuizen, S F Germishuizen (Snr),       
     O I Goldstuck (Chairman) and D J Miller.                                   
3.   GAAP                                                                       
     At the request of the JSE Securities Exchange South Africa ("JSE"), we     
     advise that there were breaches of South African Statements of Generally   
     Accepted Accounting Practice ("GAAP") in the 2003 Annual Financial         
Statements of the Company, identified by the JSE after consultation with   
     the GAAP Monitoring Panel, which will be detailed and corrected in the 2004
     Annual Financial Statements. We further advise that the 2003 reported      
     earnings and assets were not materially affected by the matters identified.
These matters will be correctly dealt with in the 2004 Annual Financial    
     Statements.                                                                
4.   Results                                                                    
     The above results have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, in a manner  
consistent with that used in the prior year.                               
By order of the Board
