(4)		▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ BANK LUXEMBOURG S.A., acting through its office at ▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇-▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ as paying, transfer and conversion agent (the “Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent” and, together with the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, the “Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents”, which expression shall wherever the context so admits include any successor paying, transfer and conversion agent for the time being so appointed) and as registrar (the “Registrar” which expression shall wherever the context so admits include any successor or additional Registrar for the time being so appointed).

Whereas:

(A)		The Issuer proposes to issue ZAR 1,700,000,000 4.875 per cent. Convertible Bonds due 2009 (the “Bonds”). The Bonds will be convertible into fully paid ordinary shares in the Issuer (the “Shares”).

(B)		The Bonds will be issued in registered form, in principal amounts of ZAR 1,000,000 or integral multiples thereof (“authorised denominations”), represented on issue by a Global Bond (the “Global Bond”).

(C)		The Bonds will be constituted by a trust deed dated 21 May 2004, and made between the Issuer and the Trustee (the “Trust Deed”) and will be issued subject to the conditions (the “Conditions”) set out in Schedule 4 to the Trust Deed.

Now it is hereby agreed and declared as follows:

1		Definitions

1.1		Terms defined or construed in the Conditions or the Trust Deed shall, unless the context otherwise requires, have the same meanings when used herein. Reference herein to amounts payable in respect of the Bonds shall include all redemption moneys and/or interest and any additional amounts expressed to be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the Conditions. In addition:

1.2		“Agents” means the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents and the Registrar.

1.3		“Business Day” means in relation to any place any day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday) on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets are open for business in London.

1.4		“Conversion Notice” means a notice of conversion substantially in the form for the time being current and which initially shall be in the form appearing in Schedule 1.

1.5		The expression “approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed” or like references mean, in relation to the Trustee, that, in determining whether to give such approval, the Trustee shall have regard to the interests of the Bondholders only and any determination as to whether or not its approval is unreasonably withheld shall be made on that basis.

1.6		References in this Agreement to Clauses and Schedules shall be construed as references to the Clauses of and Schedules to this Agreement.

2		Appointment

2.1		Upon and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Conditions, the Issuer hereby appoints (i) the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents as its agents for making payments in respect of the Bonds (including in respect of any Further Bonds) and (ii) the Agents as its agents in relation to any transfer and conversion of the Bonds (including in respect of any Further Bonds) at their respective offices specified above, and the Agents hereby accept such appointments. Except where the context otherwise requires, references hereafter in this Agreement to the Agents are to them acting solely through their respective specified offices.

2.2		Each Agent shall perform the duties required of it by the Conditions and this Agreement, and shall carry out such other acts and perform such other duties as may be necessary to give effect to the Conditions, this Agreement and the Trust Deed.

2.3		The obligations of the Agents hereunder are several and not joint.

2.4		The Agents agree to act as such for any Subsidiary of the Issuer or (in the case of a Newco Scheme) Newco (the “Substituted Issuer”) which for the time being is substituted as principal debtor in place of the Issuer pursuant to Clause 15.2 of the Trust Deed and accordingly each of the Agents agrees with the Trustee and the Issuer to act as such and to enter into any agreement supplemental to this Agreement which in the opinion of the Trustee is necessary or desirable in connection with such substitution subject only to:

2.4.1		the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent being satisfied that the Substituted Issuer has been accepted as such by the Trustee; and

2.4.2		the Substituted Issuer being bound by all the provisions of this Agreement in place of or in addition to the Issuer or any predecessor Substituted Issuer.

3		Authentication; Transfer and Exchange of Bonds

3.1		Immediately before issue, the Issuer shall deliver to the Registrar a duly executed Global Bond. The Registrar (or its agent on its behalf) shall authenticate the Global Bond and return it to, or to the order of, the Issuer for delivery to a depositary common to Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg.

3.2

3.2.1

If the Global Bond is, pursuant to its provisions, to be exchanged for definitive registered Bonds, the Issuer will cause sufficient individual definitive registered Bonds to be executed and delivered to the Registrar in sufficient quantities and in

		sufficient time for such Bonds to be issued as provided in the Global Bond, and the Registrar will authenticate the same.

3.2.2		To receive such individual definitive registered Bonds, a person with an interest in the Bonds represented by the Global Bond must provide the Registrar with:

	(i)		a written order containing instructions and such other information as the Issuer and the Registrar may require to complete, execute and deliver such individual definitive registered Bonds; and

	(ii)		a certificate to the effect that such person is not transferring its interest at the time of such exchange.

3.2.3

Upon receipt of the documents referred to in Clause 3.2.2, the Registrar shall arrange for the execution and delivery to or upon the order of the person named in such order referred to in Clause 3.2.2 (i) of an individual definitive registered Bond registered in the name or names requested by such person or persons and the Registrar shall alter the entries in the Register in respect of the Bonds accordingly.

3.3		Subject to the provisions of Schedule 2 hereto, no other restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer of Bonds.

4		Payment

4.1		The Issuer will by 10.00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately preceding each date on which any payment in respect of the Bonds becomes due, transfer to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent such amount as may be required for the purposes of such payment. The Issuer shall irrevocably confirm to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent by authenticated SWIFT not later than 10.00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day in Johannesburg immediately prior to the due date for any such payment that it has given instructions to its Bank to make such transfer. In this Clause 4, the date on which a payment in respect of the Bonds becomes due means the date on which the relevant payment becomes due under the Conditions.

4.2		The Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent will forthwith notify by facsimile transmission each of the other Agents, the Trustee and the Issuer if it has not by the due date for any payment due in respect of the Bonds received the full amount so payable on such date or it has not on the relevant Business Day received the confirmation from the Issuer referred to in Clause 4.1.

4.3		If it has received by the due date for any payment in respect of the Bonds the full amount so payable on such date, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, subject to and in accordance with the Conditions, shall pay on behalf of the Issuer the relevant amounts due in respect of the Bonds on the due date therefor. If any payment provided for in Clause 4.1 is made late but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, shall nevertheless pay such amounts. However, unless and until the full amount of any such payment has been made to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent it will not be bound to make such payments. If the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent pays any amounts to Bondholders at a time when it has not received payment in full in respect of the Bonds (the excess of the amounts so paid over the amounts so received being, for the purposes of this Clause 4.3, the “Shortfall” and certified by it to be such), the Issuer will, in addition to paying amounts due under Clause 4.1, pay to the Principal Paying, Transfer and

		Conversion Agent on demand interest (at a rate per annum determined by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent to represent the cost to it of funding the Shortfall) on the Shortfall (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) until the receipt in full by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent of the Shortfall.

4.4		Subject to receipt of funds pursuant to Clause 4.1, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent will on demand promptly reimburse the Agents for payments in respect of the Bonds properly made by them in accordance with the Conditions and this Agreement. If the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent pays out on or after the due date therefor, or becomes liable to pay out funds on the assumption that the corresponding payment by the Issuer has been or will be made and such payment has in fact not been so made by the Issuer, then the Issuer shall on demand reimburse the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent for the relevant amount, and pay interest to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent on such amount from the date on which it is paid out to the date of reimbursement at a rate per annum equal to the cost to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent of funding the amount paid out, as certified by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, no amounts will be payable by the Issuer in respect of interest under this Clause 4.4 to the extent that interest has already been paid or is payable under Clause 4.3 in respect of the relevant amount.

4.5		If the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent has not received by the due date for any payment in respect of the Bonds the full amount payable on such date but receives such full amount later it will forthwith:

	4.5.1		so notify the other Agents and the Trustee and

	4.5.2		upon request by the Trustee, give notice to the Bondholders in accordance with the Conditions that it has received such full amount.

4.6		With the exception of fees and expenses payable under Clause 19 in sterling, all sums payable to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent hereunder will be paid in Rand in immediately available funds to such account and with such bank in Johannesburg as the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent may from time to time notify to the Issuer.

4.7		The Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent may deal with moneys paid to it under this Agreement in the same manner as other moneys paid to it as a banker by its customers except that (1) it may not exercise any lien, right of set-off or similar claim in respect of them and (2) it shall not be liable to any person for interest on any sums held by it under this Agreement.

Repayment and Early Redemption

5.1

As soon as practicable after any Bond being deposited with the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent upon the exercise of a Conversion Right, or being redeemed by the Issuer or being purchased or cancelled, or becoming void by prescription pursuant to the Conditions, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall repay to the Issuer any amount held by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent in respect of such Bond (or such claim as the case may be). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall not be obliged to make any repayment to the Issuer so long as any amounts which under this Agreement should have been paid to or to the order of the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent by the

		Issuer shall remain unpaid. The Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall not, however, be otherwise required or entitled to repay any sums received by it under this Agreement.

5.2		If the Issuer intends to redeem the Bonds pursuant to Condition 7(b), it shall, at least 14 days before the latest date for publication of the notice of redemption required to be given to Bondholders, give written notice of its intention to the Agents and the Trustee stating the date on which such Bonds are to be redeemed.

5.3		Following receipt of written notices from the Issuer pursuant to Clause 5.2, the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall publish the notice required in connection with such redemption, specifying those matters set out in Condition 7(b).

5.4		Each Agent will keep a stock of notices in form similar to that set out in Schedule 3 (“Bondholders Tax Election Notice”) and will make such notice available on demand to Bondholders. At the end of the period for exercising the option in Condition 7(c), each Agent shall promptly notify the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent of the principal amount of Bonds in respect of which Bondholders Tax Election Notices have been deposited with it and will forward such Bondholders Tax Election Notices to the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent. The Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall promptly notify such details and details of the principal amount of Bonds in respect of which the option in Condition 7(c) has been exercised to the Issuer and the Trustee.

6.2		Subject as provided herein and in the Conditions, Bondholders may exercise Conversion Rights by delivering Bonds for conversion to the specified office of any Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent during its usual business hours, together with a duly completed and signed Conversion Notice (the form of which shall be furnished upon request to any Bondholder by such Agent) and each Agent shall:

	6.2.2		require, as a further condition precedent to an exercise of Conversion Rights by or on behalf of a Bondholder (i) compliance by the Bondholder with any applicable fiscal or other laws or regulations as provided in the Conditions, and (ii) that such Bondholder pays all taxes and capital, stamp, issue and registration duties (if any) arising on conversion in respect thereof (other than any taxes or capital duties or stamp duties payable in the Republic of South Africa in respect of the issue and delivery of Shares on such conversion (which shall be paid by the Issuer)) and any taxes arising in any jurisdiction by reference to any disposal or deemed disposal of a Bond or interest therein in connection with such disposal provided that no other charge shall be made and in particular no charges in respect of the despatch of the share certificates (if any) to the person(s) entitled to the Shares (unless, at the request of the person(s) entitled thereto, they are to be sent otherwise than by ordinary mail, uninsured and at the risk of such person(s)).

6.2.3

on the date of delivery of such Conversion Notice send a copy of such Conversion Notice to the Issuer by facsimile.

6.3		Conversion Rights attaching to Bonds represented by the Global Bond shall be exercised in the manner set out in Clause 6.2, provided that (i) where appropriate, references to “Bondholders” shall be construed as references to the holders of the Global Bond, (ii) the Global Bond shall be annotated to take account of such exercise and returned to the holder thereof, and (iii) the holding of a beneficial interest in the Global Bond by an accountholder of any clearing system in which the Global Bond is held at such time in respect of which Conversion Rights are exercised will be confirmed by the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent with the relevant clearing system.

6.4		Upon the conditions referred to in Clause 6.2 being fulfilled, the relevant Conversion Notice shall be endorsed and held, subject to Clause 6.5, by the relevant Agent.

6.5		Within two Business Days of the conditions being fulfilled in accordance with Clause 6.2, the relevant Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent shall:

		effective, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the successor Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless otherwise required by the Issuer or the Trustee, and after the said effective date all references in this Agreement to such Agent shall be deemed to be references to such corporation. Notice of any such merger or consolidation shall forthwith be given to the Issuer and the Trustee.

18.6		The Issuer shall, not less than 30 days prior to the termination of the appointment of any Agent, the appointment of any new Agent or the resignation of any Agent taking effect, or, if later, as soon as it is aware that such appointment or registration will take effect, give to the Bondholders notice thereof in accordance with Condition 17.
