FEEDBACK GIVEN TO THOSE ATTENDING THE COMPANY`S ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING HELD ON
FRIDAY, 28 JANUARY 2005 AND RESULTS OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
1. Shareholders are advised of the following comments made by the Chairman to
those attending the Company`s Annual General Meeting held on Friday, 28 January
2005 -
Retirement as Executive Chairman -
`It was announced on 15 November 2004 that I would be retiring as Executive
Chairman with effect from 28 February 2005, and that an announcement would be
made regarding a replacement prior to that date. I wish to advise that pursuant
to recommendations of the Board Remuneration Committee at a meeting held on 1
December 2004, it was recommended that I continue in the position of non-
Executive Chairman, an invitation that I have accepted.
In confirming this changed status to non-Executive Chairman, I would like to say
how proud I am to have been involved in Netcare`s conception, its strategy, with
its extraordinary management, its growth, including in so many ways, its
contribution to the health and welfare of South Africa and all South Africans.
In the 40 years I have actively been engaged in commerce, in the institutional
domain and the professions, Netcare must rank overall as the most superior
institution with which I have been associated. May it grow from strength to
strength.`
Welcome to new Directors -
`I would also like to record a special welcome to the newly appointed Netcare
Directors, namely Mr Peter Nelson - Group Financial Director, Dr Victor
Litlahkanyane - Operations Director and Professor Barry Kistnasamy - non-
Executive Director. All of these gentlemen are extremely talented in their
respective areas of specialisation and all are expected to add significant value
to the Netcare Group.`
Prospects -
`I am pleased to report that trading for the first quarter of the financial year
ending 30 September 2005 is in line with budget.`
