Sasol is pleased to announce that Sasol South Africa Ltd (“SSA”), a major subsidiary of Sasol,
has concluded a sale and purchase agreement (“SPA”) in terms of which SSA has agreed to sell
a 30% interest (“Sale Shares”) in ROMPCO to an acquisition vehicle beneficially owned by a
consortium, comprising Reatile Group Proprietary Limited (“Reatile Group”) and the IDEAS Fund
managed by African Infrastructure Investment Managers Proprietary Limited (“IDEAS Fund”)
(collectively the "Reatile Consortium") (the “Proposed Transaction”).
SSA will retain a 20% shareholding in ROMPCO and will continue to operate and maintain the
pipeline in terms of the commercial agreement between Sasol and ROMPCO, which is
independent of the Proposed Transaction. Sasol’s agreements with ROMPCO to transport gas to
Secunda are unaffected by the Proposed Transaction and the tariffs remain as per the said
agreements, which were approved by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA)
(or are approved by NERSA from time to time).
The Sale Shares will, subject to certain adjustments, be sold for a consideration comprising an
initial amount of R4,145 billion and a deferred payment of up to R1 billion payable if certain agreed
milestones are achieved by 30 June 2024.
The Proposed Transaction is subject to the pre-emptive rights on the Sale Shares held by the
other shareholders of ROMPCO, being the South African Gas Development Company (SOC)
Limited and Companhia Moçambicana de Gasoduto S.A.R.L.
The Proposed Transaction will thereafter be subject to the fulfilment of customary conditions
