INVESTMENT IN A PROPERTY PORTFOLIO AND WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY                 
1. Introduction                                                                 
Further to the joint cautionary announcement dated 23 October 2006,             
shareholders are advised that a new entity, Amrich 58 Properties                
(Proprietary) Limited ("Amrich"), which will focus on income producing          
properties and property development, has been formed. In terms of the           
shareholders agreement, ERM and SABLE each hold 50% of the issued share         
capital of Amrich.                                                              
Shareholders are further advised that agreement has been reached with one of    
the vendors of Rotaflex Investments (Proprietary) Limited ("Rotaflex"),         
being Saprop Investments (Proprietary) Limited, in terms of which Amrich        
will acquire 34% of the issued share capital of Rotaflex. Rotaflex is a         
company with a diversified portfolio of retail, commercial, residential         
and industrial properties.                                                      
2. Rationale for the acquisition                                                
As previously reported, ERM has indicated its intention to pursue property      
transactions in order to enhance shareholder value. SABLE has been              
involved in the property industry in excess of 40 years and both                
companies have a common vision to develop their property interests.             
3. Salient terms of the acquisition                                             
The purchase consideration, which amounts to R32,30 million, will be settled    
by way of a cash contribution of R16,15 million each by ERM and SABLE to        
Amrich. These contributions will be treated as shareholders" loans. No          
arrangement for a deferred payment exists. The net value of the Rotaflex        
portfolio of properties is approximately R95 million. The effective date        
of the acquisition is 1 December 2006.                                          
4. Conditions precedent                                                         
The acquisition is conditional upon inter alia:                                 
-the delivery of the share certificates in respect of the shares sold           
to Amrich; and                                                                 
-delivery of a resolution passed by the directors of Rotaflex approving         
 the transfer of the shares sold to Amrich.                                     
5. Pro forma financial effects                                                  
The pro forma financial effects of the acquisition, being less than 3%, are     
insignificant on both ERM and SABLE"s net asset value, earnings per             
share and headline earnings per share.
