I am busy finalizing our investor calendar for early in the New Year and I would like to make sure that we meet with you if at all possible. I am sure your calendar is also filling up rapidly.

Listed below are the events that we have so far scheduled for January, February and March of 2010.

It would be great if we could arrange to meet with you at one of these.

The presentation will be from 10:00am local time at Summerplace in Johannesburg. The presentation is open to anybody who would like to attend. The presentation will also be webcast live and there will be a global teleconference at 16.30 Johannesburg time. Full details of the teleconference will be sent out early in January. The full executive team will participate in the presentation and teleconference.
