ODD LOT OFFER
PSG Capital Limited is authorised to announce that the board of Capitec intends
to propose an odd-lot offer to shareholders at the annual general meeting of the
company to be held at the House of JC le Roux, Devon Valley, Stellenbosch on
Wednesday, 26 May 2004 at 12:00.
Subject to approval by shareholders and registration of the requisite special
resolutions by the Registrars of Companies and Banks, all ordinary shareholders
who hold less than 500 Capitec shares (odd-lots) at the close of business on
Friday, 23 July 2004, may elect one of the following three options :
- to subscribe for/purchase a sufficient number of additional Capitec shares
at the offer price to increase their odd-lot holdings to 500 shares
(purchase alternative); or
- to sell their odd-lot holdings to Capitec Bank at the offer price plus a
premium of 10% (`cash alternative); or
- to retain their odd-lot holdings.
Shareholders holding less than 100 ordinary shares in the issued capital of
Capitec should note that, unless they inform the transfer secretaries (in the
case of a shareholder holding certificated shares) or their CSDP or stockbroker
(in the case of a shareholder holding dematerialised shares) of their election,
their odd-lot holdings will be sold to Capitec Bank and the net proceeds
remitted to them.
The offer price per share will be determined using the volume weighted average
traded price of Capitec shares on the JSE over the five trading days commencing
on Friday, 2 July 2004 and ending on Thursday, 8 July 2004.
