10 KEY MESSAGES: CHANGES IN ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT The global recession cause both commodity prices and inflation to ease further on the back of weak demand International trade is projected to decelerate sharply, with global trade volumes falling by 2.8% in 2009. Commodity prices have fallen sharply since September 2008. Oil has fallen more than 60% from its peak and is forecast to increase to an average of $60 -$70/barrel in 2009. Iron Ore price had declined by almost 70% before recovering slightly. Thermal coal price has fallen by more than 50% since July 2008 The Baltic Dry Index has fallen over 90% in the past 6 months Drewry forecasts container growth of only 2.8% in 2009 Container volumes through US ports have been negative for 17 consecutive months Lower ocean freight rates benefit SA The financial crisis sparked the worst worldwide recession since the Great Depression. Expectations of a quick resolution to the credit crisis have not been realised The IMF has revised its global GDP 2009 forecast to 0.5%, from 2.2% in November 2008 Transnet’s short term focus will shift towards sustaining the business Transnet is well equipped to weather the storm The growth strategy will continue to provide the strategic framework The timing of the implementation of the growth strategy will be delayed as a result of revisions to volume forecasts The short term focus is on protecting volumes and preserving cash 9 -6.4% -1.8% 0.2% 5.0% GDP (%) 2008/09 08/09 CP = 4% Baltic Dry Bulk Index $000/Tonne Week 9 11.5 Week 8 11.5 Week 11 11.6 Week 10 11.4 GFB Volumes (mt) Containers (000TEUs) Q4Q3Q2Q1 Q3Q2Q4 -9% -20% Q4Q3Q2 +4% -14% 2008/09 Budget 2009/10

14 GOVERNANCE – MEDIA REPORTS 13 Article attempted to conflate two different issues both apparently the subject of leaks from employees with their own agendas Succession Totally incorrect and without foundation Capital Projects Report has neither served at Board or provoked discussion at prior Board meetings therefore has of course no bearing on succession discussion Acting CEO, Chris Wells informed Board in January 2009 that he was not available to be appointed as CEO. This also is in Public Domain. Board united on process. Capital Project Internal Audit Report Alleged evidence of financial mismanagement Transnet Internal Audit outsourced to Ernst & young Strong control environment in line with best international practice Audit report in question was the result of a normal audit and evidence of proactive and very thorough governance processes Senior Ernst & Young partner responsible issued press release saying that issues are “not material” and are part of normal process. Normal forensics in place to find source of leaks as this was a breach of Transnet’s ethics and employment contract and sought to bring harm to Transnet Other Transnet has an independent tip-offs line for any anonymous reports of alleged corruption or malpractice.

35 Investment Criteria CostTimeQualityLocal Content SafetyRisk Overview The aim of this project is to build a 550 km new trunk line from Durban to Jameson Park (Gauteng), 24 inch in diameter, addressing the increased demand for fuel in Gauteng and surrounding areas. The trunk line will connect an inland and coastal terminal with significant storage capacity. The existing pipeline is 40 years old and needs replacing. With the front-end engineering design phase completed, Transnet was granted licence to construct the NMPP by NERSA. It also entails the replacement of two northern network pipelines that have outlived their sustainable life. Given the energy problem facing South Africa, the Board has granted unconditional approval to commence construction in February 2008. This project is considered a strategic project for the Company, and is of national importance. Current Status In May 2008 a R3.3 Billion contract was awarded to Spiecapag Group 5, a South African French Consortium for the construction of the NMPP. Favorable Environmental Approvals for the project scope has also been received. Manufacturing for the 16” pipe commenced in April 2008 and all 105 000 tons of steel for the main 24” pipe has arrived in South Africa. As at end March 2009, the first 6 out of a total of 170 km of 16” pipe had been laid in the Kendall/Waltloo area. It is expected that the last phase of this project will be completed at the end of 2011.

Group revenue (all commodities) is estimated to be 4.7% below budget for the 2009/10 year, mainly due to limitation on petroleum tariff increases, container volumes and negative price mix, export coal volumes and other bulk commodities. The Group revenue variance for 2009/10 would only be 2.0% below budget if the impact of TPL’s tariff increases are excluded. 447 Liquid Bulk (TNPA) 872 -49% 109,400 Break Bulk (TPT) 166,613 -34% 358,376 Other Bulk (TPT) 369,753 -3% % Volume Variance % Revenue Variance Size -8%-6%-42%-4%-2%-10%6%4%2%0% Gas Petroleum Other Bulk Liquid Bulk Automotives Containers Iron Ore (TPT) Coal (TNPA) Iron Ore (TNPA) Coal (TFR) Iron Ore (TFR) GFB Spot Price $/Tonne Coal Spot Price $/Tonne Iron Ore Baltic Dry Bulk Index $/Tonne Current Year Prior Year Global Bulk Indicators TRANSNET STATUS Level 1 Negative 2% revenue variance, excluding TPL tariffs Negative 4.7% revenue variance, including TPL tariffs Extract of Week 11 Report 41

44 CONCLUSION - 2009/10 STRATEGIC PRIORITIES Increasing export iron ore volumes by 11.6% above the budget to contractual levels (47.9mt compared to budget of 43mt); Increasing current throughput in domestic coal to at least achieve the budgeted volumes of 21.5mt; Containers on rail to increase by 10% above the current budget of 544 460 TEUs to 600 000 TEUs; To maintain at least the current trends in magnetite and cement volumes which are on average 70% and 20% in excess of budgets respectively. Volume and revenue opportunities Whilst most divisions have made good progress on committing to cost savings initiatives, we have only managed to obtain plans to substantiate R1bn savings compared to the R1.4bn (level 1) required. It is essential that the cost structures must be reduced through efficiency improvement and elimination of non-revenue related costs. The Group minimum requirement remains R1.4bn reduction in costs and operating divisions will be measured monthly against these targets going forward. Cost savings Focusing on the execution of the capex plans with optimal phasing Committed to investing R80.5bn over the next 5 years Capital optimisation We will drive to achieve “a world-class” (otherwise known as best-in-breed) operational performance in each key area of operations, in the near future. Accordingly, the KPI project will be driven hard this year with the focus on at least achieving the KPIs set out in the Corporate Plan Operational efficiencies 43 The objective is to reduce the number of incidents and the cost of losses by 33% from 2009/08 actual levels (approximately R200m reduction at Group level). Environmental compliance has been elevated as a key priority in Transnet and we agreed to perform the following at all main areas of operations: Review of maintenance and implementation of proper and structured maintenance programmes Getting housekeeping up to standard and comply with all environmental requirements To start with a compliance review/audit to identify areas of non-compliance/unsatisfactory standards Safety and environment
