SALE OF GOEDEHOOP NORTH

1. Introduction and Rationale for the Transaction

Thungela is pleased to announce that, subject to regulatory approvals, we have entered into a sale of
assets agreement ("the Agreement") with GHN Resources Proprietary Limited ("GHN"), a private company
with limited liability incorporated in South Africa, and Bisichi PLC ("Bisichi"), which holds a controlling
shareholding in GHN, (collectively "the Purchasers"), in terms of which inter alia Thungela, through its wholly
owned subsidiary, Thungela Operations Proprietary Limited ("the Seller"), will sell Goedehoop North Mining
Area Assets and Liabilities (the "Transaction", as further defined below). Bisichi is acting as guarantor and
co-principal debtor for GHN's consideration payments, which are due on or after completion.

The Group's South African portfolio is currently in a period of transition, with the closure of select operations
as economical reserves are mined out. These operations, however, continue to have infrastructure that
have value-in-use and provide an opportunity for neighbouring operations with long-life resources to
continue to utilise the economic benefit of the infrastructure for a longer period. This transaction provides
an opportunity for the Group to optimise the South African portfolio and continue to strengthen the balance
sheet, as the sale will also include the transfer of the rehabilitation liability associated with the Goedehoop
North Mining Area.

2. The Transaction

2.1 The Seller has entered into the Agreement with the Purchasers to acquire the Goedehoop North Mining
Area Assets and Liabilities which includes the following:
- Rapid Load-out Coal Terminal
- Coal Beneficiation Plant
- Surface Rights
- Mine Residue Dump
- Mining Rights
- Rehabilitation liabilities

2.2 The purchase price consideration payable by the Purchasers to the Seller of the sale of the assets is
up to ZAR700 million, excluding value added tax ("VAT"), that includes a cash portion of ZAR50 million
("Cash Portion"), excluding VAT (the "Consideration"). The Cash Portion of the Consideration will be paid
as follows:
2.2.1 a non-refundable cash deposit of ZAR15 million, plus VAT, is to be paid to the Seller within 15
business days of the date of the Agreement;
2.2.2 ZAR15 million, plus VAT, which is payable upon registration of the transfer of the last of the
Immovable Property as set out in the Agreement in the Purchasers' names;
2.2.3 ZAR20 million, plus VAT, which is payable after the Seller receiving a copy of the granted Section
11 Consent;
2.2.4 the balance of the Consideration ("Deferred Amount"), up to ZAR650 million, excluding VAT, is
payable to the Seller in cash in quarterly instalments. The Deferred Amount is contingent on the
access and utilisation of the Rapid Load-out Terminal, the Coal Beneficiation Plant and coal
resources extracted from the Mining Rights should the licenses be successfully amended. If the Deferred
Amount paid to the Seller is less than ZAR60 million, plus VAT, within three years of completion of
the Transaction, the Purchasers are required to pay the shortfall.

2.3 As part of the acquisition of the Mining Rights, the Purchasers will assume all rehabilitation liabilities of
the Mining Area, including the replacement of rehabilitation financial guarantees to the Department of
Mineral and Petroleum Resources currently provided by the Seller for approximately ZAR41 million plus
any shortfall. As part of the Transaction, an Environmental Trust will be established and transferred to the
Purchasers for the specific rehabilitation and environmental obligations of the Mining Area.

2.4 The closing date for the Transaction will be the fifth business day after the date on which the last of the
suspensive conditions as defined in the Agreement, are fulfilled or waived, or such later date as may be
agreed in writing by the parties.

2.5 The proceeds from the Consideration will be deployed in line with the Group's capital allocation
framework.


3. Conditions precedent

3.1 Completion of the Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
- The Purchasers to provide the Seller confirmation of the replacement of the Rehabilitation Guarantee.
- Obtain consent of the Minister, in accordance with Section 11 of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources
Development Act, to the cession of the Goedehoop North Mining Rights from the Seller to the
Purchasers.
- Approval from the relevant South African Competition Authorities.

3.2 If the conditions precedent are not satisfied, waived or extended by the first anniversary of the execution
of the Agreement, the Agreement will terminate. The payment of the Purchase Price, other than the cash
deposit, is conditional on completion and, in the case of the Deferred Amount, is subject to the
commencement of rail operations, the processing of third-party material, and mining activities.

3.3 The Agreement contains the customary warranties in favour of the Purchasers and is governed by South
African law.
