1 The restructuring reserve arose as a result of the restatement of group comparatives, as required in terms of the principles of predecessor accounting. This reserve represents the difference between the fair value of the entities under the group’s control and their respective net asset values, as at the assumed restructure date of 1 June 2006.

2 The transaction with minority reserve relates to goodwill arising on transactions with minority shareholders as these are treated as equity participants.
