1. INTRODUCTION
Shareholders are referred to the various announcements released on SENS and the
circular to African Life shareholders dated 7 September 2005 relating to:
- a scheme of arrangement in terms of section 311 of the Companies Act, No. 61
of 1973, as amended, proposed by Sanlam between African Life and the African
Life ordinary shareholders, other than Sanlam (in respect of African Life
ordinary shares held by the Sanlam Group Companies in shareholders funds), the
African Life Employee Shareholders Scheme Trust and African Life Investments
(Proprietary) Limited (the scheme); and
- the disposal by African Life of ALH to Momentum (the ALH disposal).
2. THE ALH DISPOSAL AND THE ALH ADDITIONAL DISPOSAL PAYMENT
On 2 February 2006 the Competition Appeals Court approved the ALH disposal
unconditionally. All the suspensive conditions relating to the ALH disposal have
therefore been fulfilled and the ALH disposal has become unconditional. In
addition to the base offer consideration which was paid on 12 December 2005,
scheme participants will receive payment of R0.45 per African Life ordinary
share (the ALH additional disposal payment) on the basis set out in paragraph
3 below.
3. SALIENT DATES RELATING TO THE ALH ADDITIONAL DISPOSAL PAYMENT
Payment of the ALH additional disposal payment will be made to scheme
participants who were recorded in the register of African Life on
9 December 2005, as follows:
Date on which the ALH additional disposal payment
will be transferred or posted, as the case may be,
to certificated scheme participants (if documents of
title have been surrendered) on Thursday, 16 February 2006
Date on which dematerialised scheme participants
will have their accounts held at their CSDP or
broker credited with the ALH additional disposal
payment on Thursday, 16 February 2006
4. TERMINATION OF LISTING
The listing of the African Life ordinary shares
on the JSE Limited will be terminated at
commencement of trade on Friday, 17 February 2006.
