Further information
This Announcement is for information purposes only and is not intended to and does not constitute, or
form part of, an offer to sell or an invitation to purchase any securities or the solicitation of an offer to
buy, or otherwise acquire, subscribe for, sell or otherwise dispose of any securities, or the solicitation of
any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, pursuant to the Combination or otherwise, nor shall there be
any purchase, sale, issuance, transfer or exchange of securities of Capital & Regional or such solicitation
in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law. The Combination is being made solely by means of
the Scheme Document.
The Combination will be subject to the applicable requirements of the Code, the Panel, the London Stock
Exchange, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the FCA.
This Announcement does not constitute a prospectus, prospectus equivalent document or exempted
document.
If you are in any doubt about the contents of this Announcement or the action you should take, you are
recommended to seek your own independent financial advice immediately from your stockbroker, bank
manager, solicitor, accountant or independent financial adviser duly authorised under FSMA if you are
resident in the United Kingdom or, if not, from another appropriately authorised independent financial
adviser.
Overseas Shareholders
This Announcement has been prepared in accordance with, and for the purpose of complying with, the
laws of England and Wales and the Code, and information disclosed may not be the same as that which
would have been disclosed if this Announcement had been prepared in accordance with the laws of
jurisdictions outside England.
The release, publication or distribution of this Announcement in or into jurisdictions other than the United
Kingdom and South Africa may be restricted by law and therefore persons into whose possession this
Announcement comes who are not resident in the United Kingdom or South Africa or who are subject to
the laws of other jurisdictions should inform themselves about, and observe, any applicable restrictions.
Capital & Regional Shareholders who are in any doubt regarding such matters should consult an
appropriate independent adviser in the relevant jurisdiction without delay. Any failure to comply with
such restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
Unless otherwise determined by NewRiver or required by the Code, and permitted by applicable law and
regulation, participation in the Combination will not be made available, and the New NewRiver Shares to
be issued pursuant to the Combination will not be issued, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a
Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and no person may vote,
or procure the vote, in favour of the Combination by any such use, means, instrumentality or form from
within a Restricted Jurisdiction if to do so would constitute a violation of the laws of that jurisdiction.
Accordingly, copies of all documentation relating to the Combination are not being, and must not be,
directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from a Restricted
Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and persons receiving documents
relating to the Combination (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise
distribute or send them in, into or from any Restricted Jurisdictions where to do so would violate the
laws in that jurisdiction. Any person (including, without limitation, any custodian, nominee and trustee)
who would, or otherwise intends to, or who may have a contractual or legal obligation to, forward this
Announcement and/or any other related document to any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom
and South Africa should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory
requirements of their jurisdiction.
If the Combination is implemented by way of a Takeover Offer (unless otherwise permitted by applicable
law and regulation), the Takeover Offer may not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use
of mails or any means or instrumentality (including, without limitation, facsimile, e-mail or other
electronic transmission, telex or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or any facility of a
national, state or other securities exchange of, any Restricted Jurisdiction, and the Takeover Offer may
not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facilities from within any
Restricted Jurisdiction.
The availability of the New NewRiver Shares under the Combination to Capital & Regional Shareholders
who are not resident in the United Kingdom may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in
which they are resident. Persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or who are subject to the
laws and/or regulations of another jurisdiction should inform themselves of, and should observe, any
applicable legal and/or regulatory requirements.
For those Capital & Regional Shareholders who hold their Capital & Regional Shares on the South African
Register, it is anticipated that, as a consequence of certain South African regulatory requirements which
make it unduly onerous for NewRiver to allot and issue the New NewRiver Shares to which they would
otherwise be entitled pursuant to the terms of the Combination, such Capital & Regional Shareholders
will not receive such New NewRiver Shares and will instead receive a cash sum in South African Rand,
further details of which are set out in the Scheme Document. Capital & Regional Shareholders on the
South African Register who wish to receive New NewRiver Shares can do so by transferring their
shareholding to an equivalent interest on the UK Register, provided that their foreign exposure falls
within their foreign portfolio investment allowance or foreign allowance, respectively. The costs
associated with the removal of shares from the South African Register to the UK Register will be borne
by the Capital & Regional Shareholder concerned.
Each Capital & Regional Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser
immediately regarding the tax consequences of the Combination.
The statements contained in this Announcement are not to be construed as legal, business, financial or
tax advice.
Notice to US investors in Capital & Regional
Capital & Regional Shareholders located in the United States should note that the Combination relates
to the securities of an English company with a listing on the London Stock Exchange and is proposed to
be implemented pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under English law. A transaction effected by
means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules
under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Scheme is subject to procedural and disclosure
requirements and practices applicable to a scheme of arrangement involving a target company in England
listed on the London Stock Exchange, which are different from the disclosure requirements of the US
tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.
The Combination may, in circumstances described in the Scheme Document, instead be carried out by
way of a Takeover Offer under English law. If in the future NewRiver exercises its right to implement the
Combination by way of a Takeover Offer, such Takeover Offer will be made in compliance with applicable
US tender offer and securities laws and regulations, including the exemptions therefrom. Such Takeover
Offer would be made in the United States by NewRiver and no one else. In addition to any such Takeover
Offer, in accordance with normal practice in the United Kingdom, NewRiver, certain affiliated companies,
and their nominees or brokers (acting as agents) may make certain purchases of, or arrangements to
purchase, Capital & Regional Shares outside the United States, other than pursuant to the Takeover
Offer, until the date on which such Takeover Offer would become effective, lapses or is otherwise
withdrawn. If such purchases or arrangements to purchase were to be made, they would be made outside
the United States and would comply with applicable law, including the US Exchange Act. These purchases
may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices.
Any information about such purchases will be disclosed, as required in the United Kingdom, will be
reported to a Regulatory Information Service of the FCA and on SENS and will be available on the London
Stock Exchange website: www.londonstockexchange.com.
The financial information included in this Announcement, the Scheme Document and other
documentation related to the Combination has been or will have been prepared in accordance with IFRS
and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial
statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States.
The New NewRiver Shares to be issued pursuant to the Scheme in connection with the Combination will
be issued in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act
provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof Capital & Regional will advise the Court that its sanction of the
Scheme will be relied upon by NewRiver as an approval of the scheme of arrangement following a hearing
on its fairness to Capital & Regional Shareholders at which hearing all such Capital & Regional
Shareholders are entitled to attend in person or through counsel to support or oppose the sanctioning of
the Scheme and with respect to which notification has been given to all Capital & Regional Shareholders.
The New NewRiver Shares to be issued to Capital & Regional Shareholders in connection with the
Combination pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under English law may generally be resold without
restriction under the US Securities Act, except for resales by persons who are or will be affiliates (within
the meaning of Rule 144 under the US Securities Act). "Affiliates" of a company are generally defined as
persons who directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or
are under common control with, that company. Whether a person is an affiliate of a company for purposes
of the US Securities Act depends on the circumstances, but affiliates can include certain officers, directors
and significant shareholders of Capital & Regional or of NewRiver prior to, or of NewRiver after, the
Effective Date. Capital & Regional Shareholders who believe that they may be or will be affiliates for
purposes of the US Securities Act should consult their own legal advisers prior to any resale of New
NewRiver Shares received under the Scheme.
None of the securities referred to in the Scheme Document have been approved or disapproved by the
SEC or any US state securities commission, nor have any such authorities passed judgment upon the
fairness or the merits of the Combination or the Scheme or determined if the Scheme Document is
accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.
US holders of Capital & Regional Shares also should be aware that the transaction contemplated herein
may have tax consequences in the United States and that such consequences, if any, are not described
herein, as well as foreign and other tax consequences. US holders of Capital & Regional Shares are urged
to consult with independent professional advisers regarding the legal, tax and financial consequences of
the Combination applicable to them.
It may be difficult for US holders of Capital & Regional Shares to enforce their rights and claims arising
out of the US federal securities laws since NewRiver and Capital & Regional are organised in countries
other than the United States and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of, and
some or all of their assets may be located in, jurisdictions other than the United States. US holders of
Capital & Regional Shares may have difficulty effecting service of process within the United States upon
those persons or recovering against judgments of US courts, including judgments based upon the civil
liability provisions of the US federal securities laws. US holders of Capital & Regional Shares may not be
able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities
laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to
a US court's judgment.
Forward-looking Statements
This Announcement, any oral statements made by Capital & Regional or NewRiver in relation to the
Combination, and other information published by Capital & Regional or NewRiver may contain statements
about Capital & Regional and/or NewRiver and/or the Combined Group that are or may be forward-

"will", "may", "anticipates", "estimates", "projects", hopes", "continues", "would", "could", "should" or
words or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, are forward-looking statements. Forward-

dividend policy, losses and future prospects; (ii) business and management strategies and the expansion

These forward-looking statements are not based on historical fact and are not guarantees of future
performance. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and
uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and/or the operations of Capital & Regional,
NewRiver or the Combined Group and are based on certain assumptions and assessments made by
Capital & Regional and NewRiver in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends,
current conditions, future developments and other factors they believe appropriate. Many of these risks
and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the entities' ability to control or estimate precisely.
There are several factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected,
expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are the satisfaction of or
failure to satisfy all or any of the conditions to the Combination, as well as additional factors, such as
changes in the global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces,
fluctuations in exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates and future business acquisitions or
disposals, the success of business and operating initiatives and restructuring objectives and the outcome
of any litigation. Such statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties
surrounding future expectations. Except as expressly provided in this Announcement, they have not been
reviewed by the auditors of Capital & Regional or NewRiver.
Neither Capital & Regional nor NewRiver, or any of their respective associates or directors, officers,
employees or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the
events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this Announcement will actually occur.
Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Announcement. All subsequent oral or written
forward-looking statements attributable to Capital & Regional or NewRiver or any of their respective
members, directors, officers, employees or advisers or any persons acting on their behalf are expressly
qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. Capital & Regional and NewRiver disclaim
any obligation to update any forward-looking or other statements contained in this Announcement,
except as required by applicable law or by the rules of any competent regulatory authority, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Disclosure requirements of the Code
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant
securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an
offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must
make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later,
following the Announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening
Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to
subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange
offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no
later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the commencement of the offer
period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following
the Announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal
in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline
for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% or more of any class of
relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing
Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities
exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's
interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the
offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have
previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies
must be made by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the business day following the date of the
relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or
informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities
exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing
Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in
concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).
Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position
Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Takeover
Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities
in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact
the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you
are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure.
