     RESULTS OF THE CAPITALISATION AWARD                                        
In the announcement regarding the company"s reviewed results for the year  
     ended 30 June 2006, published on SENS on 4 September 2006 and in the       
     press on 6 September 2006, shareholders were advised that the directors    
     have resolved to distribute to ordinary shareholders a portion of the      
share premium account in lieu of a dividend to ordinary shareholders       
     ("the distribution").  The distribution amounted to 9.0 cents per          
     ordinary share (the maximum possible amount being R17 803 798) to          
     ordinary shareholders recorded in the register on Friday, 13 October 2006  
("the record date"). Shareholders were entitled and were given the         
     opportunity to decline the distribution and elect to receive an award of   
     new capitalisation shares in respect of all or part of their               
     shareholding.  Shareholders were entitled to 2.90 new ordinary shares for  
every 100 ordinary shares held. Fractions of shares were to be rounded     
     and were not to be issued.  The last day to trade to participate in the    
     capitalisation share award was Friday, 6 October 2006.                     
     AGI ordinary shareholders holding 159 347 263 AGI ordinary shares elected  
to receive the capitalisation share award, resulting in the issue of 4     
     621 070 new shares. Accordingly,                                           
     R3 462 544 was paid in respect of a cash capital distribution.             
     The table below summarises the pro forma financial effects of the capital  
distribution and share award on the published reviewed financial results   
     of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2006.  The pro forma             
     information is the responsibility of the directors.  The pro forma net     
     asset value figures illustrate the possible financial effects if the       
capital distribution and share award had been effected on 30 June 2006,    
     whereas the pro forma earnings figures illustrate the possible financial   
     effects if the capital distribution and share award had been undertaken    
     on 1 July 2005.  Due to their nature, the pro forma financial effects are  
for illustrative purposes only and may not fairly present the financial    
     position, changes in equity and results of operations or cash flows of     
     the Company after the capitalisation award:
