The company"s Annual General Meeting ("AGM") is to be held at 11:00 on Friday,  
29 September 2006. In the lead-up to the AGM, the company has consulted         
extensively with its advisers, empowerment partners, and institutional          
shareholders regarding the composition of its board. The consensus of those     
consulted was that the board is unwieldy for a company the size of Simmers and  
could operate more effectively with a smaller number of persons and with more   
focused representation.                                                         
Following the consultation process, the directors unanimously agreed that Messrs
GJ Jacobs, VA Mkele, GP Wanblad and VM Watson will stand down from the board    
with effect from today, and in the case of Messrs Jacobs, Wanblad and Watson    
would not offer themselves for re-election at the forthcoming AGM. Messrs Jacobs
and Wanblad will remain as executive employees of Simmers. Assuming all other   
members of the board who are retiring in terms of the company"s Articles of     
Association are re-elected, the board will comprise the following categories of 
director:
