Our Strategy towards developing the Rolling Stock Industry Getting in early participating in early stage feasibility funding in support of rail and rolling stock projects in the continent. Regional Integration promoting the integration of the SA rail industry into the Rest of Africa to create export opportunities for South Africa s railway goods. Influencing Government Policies - promote policies that deepen industrialisation such as localisation, preferential designation etc. Supporting and developing a strong competitive supplier base - providing competitive and tailor made funding packages to 1st and lower tier component suppliers. Co-operation with key industry stakeholders cooperation agreements with the OEMs, Rail Operators and other industry players on the continent in support of their investment plans. 1 2 3 procurement, sector- 4 5 7

Funding model What makes our funding structure so unique Product offering IDC puts together the most appropriate financial package for the client, taking into account the IDC guidelines and the client s requirements by means of, among others: Capital and interest moratorium: IDC will allow start-up business or expansion of existing businesses a grace period during which capital is not payable, generally one year, but can be up to 5 years e.g. pro- orchards scheme . In certain instances, even interest payments are capitalised for an average period of 18 months Terms of loans : IDC matches the repayment term of the loan with the cash flow generated by the asset acquired or expense incurred. Average term of loans is between 3 and 7 years, but can be up to 15 years (e.g. pro-orchard scheme) or even 25 years (pro-forestry scheme) Equity investments: In certain instances, mostly new projects IDC will share the responsibility for a venture by taking up equity in the business to ensure that it is adequately financed. IDC does not normally seek control in an undertaking but determines the level of participation on an individual basis. It is the IDC's policy to provide the entrepreneur with a buy back option on a mutually acceptable commercial basis. 12
Funding schemes The IDC plays a crucial role in growing the economy and creating jobs. With this in mind, the IDC is investing R10 billion through its Gro-E Scheme 13
Gro-E Scheme Max cost per job of R500 000 Operating / expanding in SA BBBEE certification Loans at prime 3% Up to 5 years 14
Manufacturing Competitiveness Enhancement Scheme Confirmed contract or purchasing order; OR Order related to state-owned competitiveness suppliers programme, OR product is part of the designated products value chain SA entity with existing manufacturing operations Qualify for MCEP Loans Incentives Working capital loan Up to R50 million 4 year term Interest at 4% fixed on 50% of loan 15
Funding model What makes our funding structure so unique Own unencumbered cash contribution: Is determined based on shareholding, capacity to invest, size and assessed risk of the venture and it may be as a low as 2.5% of the transaction value for the BBBEE component of an acquisition transaction Is required from clients to demonstrate commitment to project or venture Pricing and fees: Pricing is based on risk and discounted for development impact (i.e. the higher the developmental impact the lower the price would be). The IDC s fees are generally lower than those of other financial institutions (commitment fee an drawing fee, no fee charged for investigation 16
Funding model (cont.) What makes our funding structure so unique Cash flow: The IDC considers the cash flow of a company and the financial forecasts to demonstrate economic viability and profitability within a reasonable period and sufficient cash flows to repay the investment over a reasonable period of time The cash flows are often weak due to start-up nature of most of the projects Capital security (collateral): Is generally low in comparison with other financial institutions Lack of security does not preclude approval Security by way of underlying assets and/or sureties may be required with the exception of non-profit entities such as workers trust 17
Funding model (cont.) What makes our funding structure so unique Business Support Business support to entrepreneurs: IDC Business Support Programme was established to assist where appropriate: Potential clients in preparing a business plan Existing clients where e.g. shortcomings in the management capacity has been identified, if a short-term intervention is required, if it experiences financial difficulties The funding for the business support is born partly by IDC Approach to entrepreneurial development Business support Funding Training Entrepreneurial Development Training IDC offers and sponsors customized demand driven courses to empower current and prospective clients The courses are aimed at prospective and current clients. Examples of courses offered: Basic Business Skills for SMEs Monitoring developmental impact and financial performance 18

Conclusion - Leverage South Africas Strengths A number of the worlds major rolling stock OEMs including GE, South China Rail, North China Rail, Alstom and Bombardier are all participating in South Africa s rail and rolling stock investment programme bringing foreign technology and expertise into the South African industry. South Africa s deep commercial capital markets and development finance institutions are uniquely positioned to support and co-invest with like minded parties in the African freight growth story. South African public and commercial funders already offer tailor made financing solutions to rail utilities and industry on the continent including amongst other rolling stock leasing, take-or-pay agreements and network operating. 20
Conclusion - Leverage South Africas Strengths South Africa is the continent s leading rail country in terms of both freight and passenger rail infrastructure, as well as rolling stock assets. The South African rail sector has developed capabilities, skills and expertise as manufacturer, assembler and supplier of rail infrastructure, rolling stock and components, including the refurbishment and rejuvenation of aged rail and rolling stock infrastructure and components. South Africa s own substantial investments in its freight and passenger rail and rolling stock infrastructure over the next decade will further strengthen and deepen its participation in important aspects of the rail industry value chain. 21
