(1)                                 Defined as earnings before interest and tax (EBIT), depreciation and amortization, share-based payments, remeasurement items and unrealized hedging losses/(gains).  Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.  We have presented this non-IFRS measure in this prospectus supplement because we consider it to be an important supplemental measure for investors, analysts and our management to evaluate our profitability and operating performance.

 

The reconciliation of earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

The Preliminary Prospectus Supplement shall be further amended by inserting the following text under the heading entitled “CAPITALIZATION” on page S-41:

 

2



 

Since June 30, 2018, our total debt has increased by approximately R13 billion, as a result of (i) a weakening in the US dollar/South African rand exchange rate to R14.92 to $1.00 as of September 17, 2018, and (ii) we have drawn an additional $575 million under our revolving credit facility to finance capital expenditures related to the LCCP.

 

***

 

It is expected that delivery of the securities will be made against payment therefor on or about September 27, 2018, which will be five business days (as such term is used for purposes of Rule 15c6-1 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) following the date hereof (such settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on the date of pricing or the next two succeeding business days may be required, by virtue of the fact that the securities initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement. Purchasers of the securities who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisors.
