The Company reminds shareholders that due to the divergent treatment of changes to CoAL's International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) arising from the share consolidation and name change resolutions, shares on the United Kingdom register will be suspended from Tuesday 28 November 2017 to Wednesday 6 December 2017. During this period Computershare will be unable to transfer any shares between the Australian, United Kingdom and South African registers and shareholders are advised to consult with their investment advisors should they have any queries regarding the process.
