Recent market activity has demonstrated
considerable appetite for hybrid equity
issuances
- Capital is in short supply, so it is expensive if
it is available - Users of capital either pay higher margins or
issue equity - Interest bearing senior debt where the interest
is tax deductible is the cheapest form of capital - Equity is issued where debt is not available
- Convertible debt is a hybrid between debt and
equity cheaper than equity and more expensive
than debt - Convertible debt has a low cash cost and could be
cheap if conversion never happens
4Introduction
- Current capital market response
- the market response to the Aquarius Platinum
Limited (Aquarius) convertible bond issue
(April 2009) and indicative feedback from the
marketing of the Anglo American plc (Anglo)
exchangeable bond (August 2009) indicate strong
investor appetite for hybrid equity instruments - international market responses support the
evidence seen in the local market - The purpose of this presentation is to provide
an overview of convertible bonds - instrument overview
- indicative terms
- case studies

A convertible bond offers a number of advantages
to the issuer over straight debt and equity
funding
Convertible bond advantages
Convertible bond disadvantages
- Allows cash flow relief relative to term debt
(lower coupon and bullet profile) - Share price volatility monetised to reduce
funding cost - Soft and hard call options can provide issuer
some dilution protection - High level of structuring and pricing flexibility
- Greater quantum of funding may be available than
vanilla debt - May help maintain or improve credit rating
- Lower financial and cash flow risk
- Conversion premium allows issuer to obtain better
equity issue value - Increased pool of potential investors (debt and
equity)
- Greater potential for equity dilution than
vanilla debt - Option value typically not fully discounted in
pricing - More complex than vanilla debt and equity
- Additional administrative burden
- Potentially complex tax treatment
- Complex accounting treatment
- Less flexibility than bank loans

9Convertible bond issue pricing
Convertible bond pricing components
- Main parameters used in pricing the convertible
- Volatility
- Conversion premium
- Issuer call
- Term to maturity also impacts option value
- The convertible bond coupon is determined by
valuing the embedded equity option and deducting
this from the coupon that would be paid on a
vanilla bond. - The primary factors affecting the pricing are
- Volatility of the underlying equity
- Conversion premium
- Terms of Issuer call option on the bond
- Maturity
Convertible
Debt
- The higher the volatility the more valuable the
option and the lower the coupon - Market soundings and past issuances indicate that
investors will price in a significantly lower
volatility to the actual share price volatility
Volatility of underlying equity
- The greater the conversion premium the lower the
value of the option
Conversion premium
- To protect against giving away equity too cheaply
through the convertible an issuer can often force
conversion after a specified date if the share
price increases by more than a specified
percentage - The longer the term the more valuable the option
and the lower the coupon
Terms of issuer call option (soft call)
Maturity
10Potential long-term savings of convertible bonds
- Any maturity share price below c.R115 will result
in savings from the convertible bond over vanilla
term debt - If no conversion takes place - a permanent
pre-tax interest saving of c.R38.7 million - Key assumptions include
- Reference price R88.70
- Conversion premium 25
- Convertible rate 3m JIBAR 170 bps (midpoint of
range) - 3 year bullet term debt rate 3m JIBAR 3

Share price in 3 years time (R)
- Note
- This graph depicts the present value if
conversion happens after year 3. If conversion
happens before three years, the coupon savings
will be less
- Based on the assumptions, the present value range
of the pre-tax interest saving is as follows
11Overview of redemption and conversion features

and conversion features, including
- Redemption

Issuer soft-call
- issuer soft-call

- The soft-call gives the issuer the right to
redeem all Bonds outstanding at face value within
a specified time period, subject to
pre-determined share price performance the
holder is given the chance to convert before
redemption (forced conversion) - Redemptions can be cash or in shares
- Conversion
- Face value divided by conversion price gives the
number of shares into which each Bond can be
converted - The Bondholder has the right to convert each Bond
into the shares within a specified time period - The Conversion Price will be adjusted if various
events occur which dilute the interests of the
Bondholders these are standard for an

placement and rights issue - The transaction was fully underwritten by RMB and
shareholders were effectively granted pre-emptive
rights - Despite being the first listed convertible in
South Africa and local investors being required
to utilise offshore investment allowances, it was
very well received and RMB exercised the R150m
greenshoe
In the current environment, pre-marketing is
successfully applied - Minimises market risk -
Allows fine tuning of launch terms Opportunistic
financing with the aim to refinance upcoming
redemption or generate liquidity were the key
motivation for issuers We expect the market
activity to continue near-term

- Opportunistic funding in the convertible market
for a company in arguably one of the toughest
sectors, on the back of three well-received
transactions - 12 accounts were wall-crossed over the four days
prior to launch which enabled Morgan Stanley to
assess investor appetite and sensitivity to
coupon being greater than to premium level
pre-marketing enabled to have the book entirely
covered at the mid-point of the marketing range - Books were c.9 times oversubscribed with c. 80/20

16Anglo Tongaat equity placement and exchangeable
bond
On 12 August 2009, Anglo announced a secondary
offering of Tongaat ordinary shares in
conjunction with an exchangeable bond issue
Due to the strong demand for the Tongaat
ordinary shares, Anglo American sold all of its
shares in the equity placing and therefore the
exchangeable bond was not issued However, this
transaction highlighted significant local and
international demand for convertible instruments
Highlights
Proposed terms of the exchangeable bond
- Placement of Anglo American plcs (Anglo)
entire holding of 51.2 million Tongaat Hulett
Limited (Tongaat) ordinary shares, representing
approximately 49.5 of Tongaats listed shares
through a secondary offering - Launched as a simultaneous equity placement and
exchangeable bond issue (with R2 billion of the
bond underwritten by RMB) - structure of the transaction allowed for the size
of the exchangeable and equity placing components
to be adjusted based on market demand and
achievable pricing for the respective offerings - a complete solution for Anglo allowing one-stage
exit from a sizeable position in a listed company - Due to the strong demand for the Tongaat ordinary
shares, Anglo sold all of its shares through the
equity placing and therefore the exchangeable
bond was not issued - However, market feedback on August 12, 2009
indicated a strong demand from both local and
international investors for exchangeable
instruments
