SA OUTLOOK

Trans Hex Group • Interim Results Presentation

Increased stripping of overburden in the main channel at Baken during the first six months of the year has opened up new blocks for mining in the second half. These blocks are expected to yield higher grades and a higher proportion of special stones than during the first half of the year. South African production for the 2014 financial year is now expected to be approximately 61,000 carats. Rough diamond prices are expected to remain stable during the rest of the 2014 financial year.

NAMAQUALAND MINES TRANSACTION

Trans Hex Group • Interim Results Presentation

Emerald Panther Investments (EPI) was formed to purchase NM. Status of transaction The DMR has formally approved the transfer of the applicable prospecting and mining rights in respect of Namaqualand Mines from DBCM to EPI. All necessary statutory and regulatory approvals required for entering into and implementing the transaction have been obtained. Trans Hex and DBCM have reached agreement on how the State’s 20% interest will be addressed.

NAMAQUALAND MINES TRANSACTION

Trans Hex Group • Interim Results Presentation

A Special Purpose Vehicle (“SPV”) capitalized by DBCM will hold the 20% interest on behalf of the State or its nominee. The SPV will be a 20% shareholder in EPI. Equity of all EPI shareholders will reduce pro-rata and Trans Hex will therefore hold 40% of EPI’s share capital. Trans Hex will engage directly and expeditiously with the State to agree the manner in which the State will hold its housed 20% interest in NM. Trans Hex will be the operator and receive management and marketing fees totalling 5,5% of sales.

NAMAQUALAND MINES TRANSACTION

Trans Hex Group • Interim Results Presentation

Funding of transaction EPI has secured funding of R189 million from the Industrial Development Corporation. A rehabilitation insurance instrument approved by the Department of Mineral Resources of R166 million has been secured. Trans Hex’s own direct financial commitment to the NM transaction will now be in the order of R60 million.

CONCLUSION

Trans Hex Group • Interim Results Presentation

Successfully concluding the acquisition of Namaqualand Mines from De Beers remains a priority for the Group as the assets included in the transaction will add at least 10 years to the life of the South African operations. Tight controls over cash and costs will continue to be exercised in all areas of the Group’s business. In respect of new business opportunities, the Group continues to evaluate potential new ventures on an ongoing basis.
