TREVO CAPITAL LTD ( Trevo Capital or the Company ) Incorporated in the Republic of Mauritius Registration number 091521 C1/GBL ISIN Code MU0505P00006 SEM Code TREV.P0000 NSX Ticker: TRVP Directors: Roshan Nathoo Ajay Kumar Jeetoo Uday Gujadhur Johannes Calitz Daniel Romburgh 1. Introduction As set out in the announcement published on the 20 th July, the Board passed a resolution on the 10 th July authorizing the Buyback of up to 63,292,534 Preference Shares at the Buyback Price during the Buyback Period. As at the Last Practicable Date there were 316,462,672 Preference Shares in issue. The Buyback therefore encompasses up to 20% of the Preference Shares in issue as at the Last Practicable Date. The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with the relevant information relating to the Buyback and the action required by Shareholders to approve the Special Resolution required to implement the Buyback. 2. Rationale for the Buyback In the Company s original listing particulars dated 23 November 2015, the investment strategy of the Company was communicated to investors as,.to establish a strategically selected global selection of assets that will consist of various listed and unlisted investment securities across a range of asset classes (including retail and property). The execution of the strategy was subject to obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals for the externalisation of its existing assets which, at the time, comprised shares listed on the JSE in South Africa. Since the listing of the shares of the Company on the SEM and the NSX, the Company managed to secure the approval for the externalisation of 80% of its assets. The externalisation occurred during January 2017 leaving circa 20% of the total assets of the Company as JSE listed shares ( the SA Assets ). The SA Assets therefore no longer constitute part of the core business starategy of the Company and the Board has decided to dispose of the SA Assets and to utilise the proceeds to fund a specific share buyback on the listed shares. 3. Pricing Parameters The Board resolved to recommend to Shareholders that the Buyback be undertaken subject to the availability of Buyback Shares at the SEM Buyback Price for Preference Shares held on the Mauritian Register and at the NSX Buyback Price for Preference Shares held on the Namibian Register during 6

the Buyback Period, and that those Preference Shares be held as treasury shares following the Buyback. 4. Special Resolution In order to implement the Buyback, the Company requires Shareholder approval in terms of 3(d)(i) of the Buyback Rules. It is proposed that the Special Resolution is passed in writing in terms of Section 117 of the Companies Act, 2001 of Mauritius and Clause 11.1.3 of the Company s Constitution. We therefore enclose as an annexure hereto a Shareholders Special Resolution authorising the Buyback. Kindly note that the Special Resolution, once passed, will take effect from 28 July 2017. 5. Action to be taken 5.1 Shareholders recorded on the Mauritius share register 5.1.1. Dematerialised shareholders 5.1.1.1. Dematerialised shareholders are required to: 5.1.1.1.1. complete the enclosed Special Resolution in accordance with the instructions contained therein and lodge with the company secretary, Globefin, via email to, on or before 28 July 2017. Special Resolutions received after this date and time will not be accepted; or 5.1.1.1.2. notify their stockbroker of their vote in the manner and the time stipulated in the agreement governing the relationship between such shareholders and their stockbroker. 5.2. Shareholders recorded on the NSX share register 6. Explanatory Statement 5.2.1. 1. Certificated shareholders Certificated shareholders must complete the enclosed Special Resolution in accordance with the instructions contained therein and lodge with the company secretary,, via email to, on or before 28 July 2017. Special Resolutons received after this date and time will not be accepted 5.2.2. 2. Dematerialised shareholders Dematerialised shareholders are required to notify their duly appointed CSDP, broker or custodian of their vote in the manner and the time stipulated in the agreement governing the relationship between such shareholders and their CSDP, broker or custodian. The format and the content of this section 6 of this document comprises the specific requirements of the Explanatory Statement required by the Buyback Rules for a document of this nature. i. The Board approved the Buyback on 10 th July 2017 ii. In the Company s original listing particulars dated 23 November 2015, the investment strategy of the Company was communicated to investors as,.to establish a strategically selected global selection of assets that will consist of various listed and unlisted investment securities across a range of asset classes (including retail and property). The execution of the strategy was subject to obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals for the externalisation of its existing assets which, at the time, comprised shares listed on the JSE in South Africa.. Since the listing of the shares of the Company on the SEM and the NSX, the Company managed to secure the approval for the externalisation of 80% of its assets. The externalisation occurred during January 2017 leaving circa 20% of the total assets of the Company as JSE listed shares ( the SA Assets ). The SA Assets therefore no longer constitute part of the core 7

business starategy of the Company and the Board has decided to disposed of the SA Assets and to utilise the proceeds to fund a specific share buyback on the listed shares. iii. iv. It is proposed that Buyback Shares held on both the NSX Register and the Mauritian Register, representing 20% of the Preference Shares in issue and held by the public as at the Last Practicable Date, be repurchased by the Company at the NSX Buyback Price for Preference Shares held on the Namibian Register and at the SEM Buyback Price for Preference Shares held on the Mauritian Register during the Buyback Period. It is intended that the Buyback will be funded out of proceeds from the disposal of certain assets in Trevo s existing investment portfolio. Accordingly, there will be no direct cost of financing the Buyback. There will be brokerage fees and other costs, fees and charges incurred in the Buyback. v. The Company will proceed with the Buyback pursuant to the Buyback Rules. vi. The proposed timetable from opening until the close of the purchase operation is as follows: Commencement Date Tuesday, 1 August 2017 Closing Date Saturday, 30 September 2017 vii. viii. There has been no offer to sell Buyback Shares to the Company by any member of the Board of Directors or any substantial Shareholder (to the best of the knowledge of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries). The Company was incorporated on 9 November 2009 but was dormant for the period from incorporation until 30 June 2015. It was listed on SEM on 8 December 2015 and on the NSX on 9 December 2015. An extract of the audited financial statements for 28 February 2016 and 29 February 2017 is enclosed as Appendix 1 to this Explanatory Statement. 1. The present capital structure and shareholding pattern is as follows: Substantial Shareholders - Vista Holdings Ltd Others 315,862,672 Preference Shares representing 99.8% of the capital of the Company 450,000 Preference Shares representing 0.17% of the capital of the Company 100,100 Ordinary Shares representing 0.03% of the capital of the Company 2. The price has remained unchanged at ZAR 13 for the past 12 months and there have been no transactions. 8
