Angel Diamonds Proprietary Limited (“Angel Diamonds”) (in liquidation)

Shareholders are referred to the announcements released on SENS on 1 December 2011 and 9 December 2011 and are advised that additional theft charges have been brought against Messrs Peter Mosebo and Neels Engelbrecht on 13 January 2012 for the unauthorised removal from site of substantially all of Angel Diamonds’ plant and equipment, which it appears occurred prior to 30 September 2011 when a second provisional liquidation (Case Number CIV/PET/01/2011 – “the Case”) was brought and granted against Angel Diamonds. The Case will be heard in the High Court of Lesotho on 30 March 2012.

Thabex and other interested parties have to date not received any feedback from the Lesotho Royal Mounted Police, Diamond Squad Headquarters in Maseru, about the first theft charge concerning the disappearance of approximately 1000 carats of rough diamonds. The Company and other interested parties have requested the Public Prosecutor of Lesotho to determine the reasons for the delay in investigating and prosecuting the theft of the rough diamonds and have also brought to his attention the additional theft charges.
