Telkom shareholders are referred to the cautionary announcement published on 2 June 2008 regarding the non binding proposal by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone") to acquire a portion of Telkom's stake in Vodacom Group (Proprietary) Limited ("Vodacom") subject to, inter alia, the Company unbundling its remaining stake in Vodacom to Telkom shareholders and the receipt of a letter from a consortium comprising Mvelaphanda Holdings (Proprietary) Limited, affiliated funds of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group and other strategic funders ("the Consortium"), which states that the Consortium is considering making an offer for the entire issued share capital of Telkom subject to a number of pre-conditions.

The discussions with Vodafone and independently with the Consortium are still ongoing and shareholders are therefore advised to continue to exercise caution when dealing in Telkom securities until a further announcement is made.
