shares, under the general authority to issue shares for cash, with 12       
    offshore investors at 25 cents per share being a 5 cps premium to the       
    current trading price.                                                      
    The table below sets out the pro forma financial effects of the issue of    
shares for cash, based on Wellco"s interim results for the period ended 31  
    August 2006. The financial effects are presented for illustrative purposes  
    only and because of their nature may not give a fair reflection of Wellco"s 
    results, financial position and changes in equity after the transaction. It 
has been assumed for purposes of the pro forma financial effects that the   
    above transactions took place with effect from 1 March 2006 for income      
    statement purposes and 28 February 2006 for balance sheet purposes. The     
    directors of Wellco are responsible for the preparation of the financial    
effects, which have not been reviewed by the auditors.

    1. The "Before" financial information has been extracted, without           
adjustment from the published unaudited interim results of Wellco for the   
    six months ended 30 August 2006.                                            
    2. The "After" column represents the effects after the issue of shares for  
    cash of R3,75 million and issue of an additional 15 000 000 new Wellco      
shares. Earnings and headline earnings per share have not been adjusted for 
    anything else, other than to indicate any dilutionary effect of the new     
    additional shares being issued.                                             
    3. The "After" column assumes that the issue of shares for cash took place  
at the beginning of the six month period ended 30 August 2006, and ignores  
    any effects of the time value of money and interest.                        
    4. The "% Change" column compares the "After" column to the "Before"        
    column.

    Warning: The listing of the ordinary shares in the company is on the ALTX.  
    Shareholders are advised of the risks of investing in a company listed on   
    the ALTX. Shareholders are advised that the JSE does not guarantee the      
viability or the success of a company listed on the ALTX. In terms of the   
    JSE Listings Requirements a designated advisor has to be retained by the    
    company. The designated advisor is required to, inter alia, attend all      
    board meetings held by the company to ensure that all JSE Listings          
Requirements and applicable regulations are complied with, approve the      
    financial director of the company and guide the company in a competent,     
    professional and impartial manner. If the company fails to retain a         
    designated advisor it must make arrangements to appoint a new designated    
advisor within 10 business days, failing which the company faces suspension 
    of trading of its securities. If a designated advisor is not appointed      
    within 30 days of its suspension the company faces the termination of its   
    listing without an offer to minority shareholders.
