On 13 May 2004 Tiger Brands announced that, as part of its ongoing focus on its
core activities, and in order to maximise shareholder value, it intended to
unbundle its investment in Spar to Tiger Brands shareholders, and to make an
application for the separate listing of Spar on the JSE Securities Exchange
South Africa. In addition to obtaining the approval of the relevant regulatory
authorities, as may be necessary, the unbundling will be subject to the approval
of Tiger Brands shareholders in general meeting.
Shareholders are advised that the proposed unbundling and subsequent listing of
Spar is anticipated to take place towards the end of October or early November
2004. Further details of the unbundling and the listing will be contained in
the relevant circular to Tiger Brands shareholders and Spar pre-listing
statement, which are expected to be published in late September or early October
2004.
