PSG Capital Limited announced on SENS on 14 June 2004 and in the press on 15
June 2004, that the election period for the odd-lot offer, approved by Capitec
shareholders at the annual general meeting held at Stellenbosch on 26 May 2004,
had opened and that the offer price per share would be determined using the
volume weighted average traded price of Capitec shares on the JSE Securities
Exchange South Africa over the five trading days commencing on Friday, 2 July

Shareholders are advised that the offer price per share has been determined as

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 Limited at the offer price plus
a premium of 10%, which is equal to a rounded value of 690 cents per share
(`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
