3 LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK

4 Legislative Framework LEGISLATIVE PROCESS Delegated Legislation  The Revised Codes of Good Practice is sub-ordinate or delegated legislation. ( i.e. legislation that is not made by the primary legislator but in terms of authority delegated to the executive, the Minister of Trade and Industry in this case. )  The executive’s authority to legislate is limited by act that gives him such authority.  Section 9(5) Public Commentary  +-500 pieces of commentary received  Only then publish final Revised Codes i.t.o.section 9(1)

5  Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act 53 of 2003  6 Pages – gives wide powers to Minister to issue Codes and Regulations  Section 9(1) and 9(5) interaction, also section 14  Section 10 - mandatory application of any Codes  The Codes of Good Practice on Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment, 9 February 2007 (Gazette nr.: 29617)  Code 000 to 800  Various Sector Codes – promotion from charter to Code  Statement 005 – Verification Professionals  Revised Codes of Good Practice on B-BBEE, 11 October 2013 (Gazette nr.: 36928) From the Codes Legislative Framework

6 Code 000 – General Principles and the Generic Scorecard

7 Defining Black  “Black people” is as defined in the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act no. 53 of 2003, (Africans, Coloured and Indians) Please note that this is limited to natural persons who are South African citizens by birth or descent or who acquired citizenship prior to 27 th April 1994 by naturalization or thereafter but who would have qualified had it not been for Apartheid legislation.  Population Registration Act 30 of 1950

9 When do the codes become effective? Notice Page of Gazette 36928 I, Dr Rob Davies, Minister of Trade and Industry, hereby: a)Issue the following Codes of Good Practice (the codes) under section 9 (1) of the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act, 2003 (Act No. 53 of 2003); and b)Determine that these Codes will come into operation within twelve (12) months from date of this publication. (i.e. 11 October 2014) Statement 000, Section 10 – Transitional Period 10.1For the first year after the gazette of this Statement, a Measured Entity may elect to use: 10.2The Amended Codes of Good Practice; or 10.3The Generic Scorecard in Code series 000, Statement 000 issued on 9 February 2007, notwithstanding the repeal of that Statement. 10.4Thereafter the first year, as per paragraph 10.1, all B-BBEE compliance measurement will be in accordance with this Statement. Problem: Section 10 only effective after 11 October 2014

10 What of Old Codes remains after they become effective?  What is clear is that the Existing Codes (Gazette 29617) is still active and has not been repealed.  Even after 11 October 2014 several of the old Statements or Codes will remain active as the revised Codes does not purport to amend, substitute or repeal them:  All Sector Codes until they are aligned to revised Codes  Statement 003: Guidelines for developing and gazetting of transformation charters and sector Codes  Statement 004: Scorecards for Specialised Enterprises  Statement 005: Requirements for Verification Agencies  Statement 102: Recognition of Sale of Assets  Statement 103: Recognition of Equity Equivalents for Multi Nationals  Code 800: QSE Scorecard?

11 Impact on Sector Codes  Statement 000, section 3.2.3 “A Measured Entity in a sector in respect of which a sector code has been issued in terms of Section 9 of the B-BBEE Act as amended, may only be measured for compliance in accordance with that code.”  All thresholds for distinction between EME’s, QSE’s and Generic Enterprises will therefore remain in tact for those entities that falls within a particular sector Code. EME’s Construction Sector Code: BEP’s < R1.5 mil Tourism Sector Code < R2.5 mil Property Sector Code: Asset Based Businesses – Net Assets <R30 mil QSE’s Construction Sector Code: BEP’s R1.5 mil - R11.5 mil Tourism Sector Code R2.5 mil - R35 mil Property Sector Code: Asset Based Businesses – Net Assets R30 mil – R280 mil  Existing Codes Gazette 29617 will remain the basis for resolving ambiguity, uncertainty or gaps within any particular Sector Code even after the effective date of the Revised Codes. That is until the that Sector Codes itself is aligned to the revised Codes.

12 Concept of a Empowering Supplier  All 25 points for procurement require that the suppliers are Empowering Suppliers.  For B2B Procurement the B-BBEE Status level of the business will therefore mean nothing unless it is also an Empowering Supplier.  Definition: Empowering Supplier " B-BBEE compliant entity, which is a good citizen South African entity, comply with all regulatory requirements of the country and should meet at least three if it is a large enterprise or one if it is a QSE of the following criteria: (a) At least 25% of cost of sales excluding labour cost and depreciation must be procured from local producers or local suppliers in SA, for service industry labour cost are included but capped at 15%. (b) Job creation – 50% of jobs created are for Black People provided that the number of black employees since the immediate prior verified B-BBEE Measurement is maintained. (c) At least 25% transformation of raw material/beneficiation which include local manufacturing, production and/or assembly, and/or packaging. (d) Skills transfer – at least spend 12 days per annum of productivity deployed in assisting black EMEs and QSEs beneficiaries to increase their operation or financial capacity. All EME's automatically qualify as an Empowering Suppliers.

13 Changes to Thresholds  The Thresholds for EME’s, QSE’s and Generic Entities have been amended:  B-BBEE Status Level of EME’s & Black Owned QSE’s  EME’s = Level 4 BEE Status  EME’s = Empowering Supplier status  EME’s or QSE’s that are 51% Black Owned = Level 2 BEE Status  EME’s or QSE’s that are 100% Black Owned = Level 1 BEE Status  Black Owned QSE’s are not automatically Empowering Suppliers  Sworn Affidavits attesting to turnover and black ownership will be sufficient evidence for EME’s and Black Owned QSE’s. Empowering Supplier status for Black owned QSE’s still needs to be verified though.  The term 51% Black Owned is defined and requires:  that the economic interest and voting rights of the business is at least 51% owned by black people as determined in Code 100. (modified flow through applicable)  All net value points are earned

14 Don’t expect wide use of the affidavit  Lacks professional appeal of a certificate;  Not independent confirmation like certificate;  Risk of Inadvertent misrepresentation in affidavit with could be met with fines of up to 10% of rvenue and/or imprisonment of up to 10 years;  Tender Boards of Government may not rely on affidavits ( 2011 Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act Regulations );  Affidavit only used to attest to black ownership and turnover, but aspects which have become relevant in terms of the new Codes, such as the EME’s ‘designated group status’ and ‘enterprise and suppliers development beneficiary status’, can only be attested to by means of a certificate.

15 QSE Scorecard  3.2.2 of Statement 000 refers to the Generic Scorecard and QSE scorecard  The Revised Codes contains no separate QSE scorecard  5.2 of Statement 000: QSE must comply with all the elements of B-BBEE for the purposes of measurement.  Code 800: not expressly repealed, one has to infer that it was substituted by generic scorecard.  Rumors abound that the Dti will shortly gazette a QSE scorecard.  At the moment therefore no distinction between QSE and Generic Scorecard.  Non-Black Owned QSE’s only have two priority elements in stead of 3 to comply with:  Ownership is compulsory priority element  They then have to choose between either Skills Development or Enterprise and Supplier Development as priority elements.

16 Generic Scorecard

17 Who can verify  Schedule to Statement 005, The Codes – (23 September 2011) has not been repealed  Section 4.5, Statement 000, The Codes has not been repealed “ Sufficient proof of qualification as an EME is and auditor’s certificate or similar certificate issued by an accounting officer or verification agency”

18 Mixed Acceptance – next 12 months  Vast majority of large businesses will not opt into Revised Codes. Whoever goes first will not have any suppliers that are Empowering Suppliers;  Existing Codes only recognises measurement in terms of itself and its aligned Sector Codes. Companies that opt out of the Revised Codes and those rated on Sector Codes would therefore not be able to accept certificates in terms of the Revised Codes;  PPPF Act and its 2011 regulations are not aligned to Revised Codes. Tender boards would be opening themselves up to immense legal risk in accepting affidavits or certificates in terms of the Revised Codes until such time as PPPFA is aligned.  Even white owned EME’s between R5 mil and R10 mil turnover will have little incentive to be rated in terms of Revised Codes as they now have to compete with Level 2 and 1 black owned entities.

21 Ownership Calculation Normal Formula A = x D A = the score B =the actual contribution by the measured entity C = the target D = the weighting B C

22 Ownership Calculation A = B/C WhereA = % black shareholding B = Issued share in the hands of black participant (26 shares) C = Total Issued Share Capital of ME (100 shares) BEE participant Current Shareholders Measured Entity (Pty) Ltd 74 shares 26 shares 100 issued shares 1000 authorised shares A = B/C = 26/100 = 26%

23 Calculating Net Value Deemed Net Value A = A = the deemed net value B =the value of the shares C = the carrying value of the acquisition debts of the black participants D = the value of the SA operations of the measured entity on date of measurement Net Value = higher of formula A or B Formula AFormula B: normal formula A = B x x 8 A = the score B =the deemed net value C = the time based graduation factor: 10% year 1; 20% year 2; 40% year 3&4 etc. BC D 25% x C 1

24 THE DEFINITION OF ‘CURRENT EQUITY INTEREST DATE The term current equity interest as used in the graduation factors in Formula A of the Net Value calculation in Annexe 100 (C), is not defined in the Codes. Revised Codes did not fix this omission. ABVA’s technical committee interprets the term ‘current equity interest date’ in line with the term “Net Value date” which is defined as meaning: “..the later occurring of the date of commencement of statement 100 and the date upon which the earliest of all still operative transactions undertaken by the Measured Entity in order to achieve black rights of ownership, became effective and unconditional.” Example: Timeline Deal 1 Deal 2 9 Feb 2007 3 Jan 20052 Apr 2009 Date of Commencement statement 100 OTHER BEST PRACTICE NOTES

25 MAJOR DIFFERENCES Increase of overall points from 23 to 25 Black new Entrants  Threshold increase from R20 mil to R50 mil  Target dropped from 10% to 2%  Points increased from 1 to 2 Realisation point moved to Net Value category Modified Flow through principle  BEE controlled or owned company now ≥51%  Can only apply once in entire ownership structure  Cannot apply exclusion principle if you apply MFT

26 MODIFIED FLOW THROUGH PRINCIPLE The Modified Flow-Through Principle applies to any a juristic person in the chain of ownership of the ME, in which black people have a flow-through level of participation of at least 51%. Then, according to this principle, only once in the entire ownership structure (use to be chain) may such black participation be treated as if it were 100% black. Only applies to “Black People” indicators therefore not to any other indicators including female, net value or bonus points. Example on left: Old Codes % BEE = (100% x 15%) + (100% x 10%) = 15% + 10% = 25% Revised Codes % BEE = (100% x 15%) + (60% x 10%) = 15% + 6% = 21% Prior to Transaction Post Transaction Measured Entity Co ACo B BEE 1BEE 2 MFT 51% 60% 15% 10%

27 MAJOR DIFFERENCES Mandated Investments – only South African Continued recognition of Sale of Shares limited Private Equity Fund treatment corrected Definitions of BBOS’s; ESOS’s and Trusts amended to:  Defining of participants and their proportion of entitlement  Limitation of fiduciaries’ discretion with this (except family trusts)  Compulsory AGM’s (disclosure of financials)  Constitution must be available upon request to participants in their language.

28 ANNEXURE 100 (B) VEHICLES BROAD BASED OWNERSHIP SCHEMES Substantive definitions removed in final draft e.g. > 50 people Only objective factual criteria - Management Fees not to exceed 15% - Constitution must record rules for distribution of Econ. Interest - At least 85% of value of scheme to accrue to black people - 50% of fiduciaries must be independent - 50% of fiduciaries must be black people and 25% black female - Chairperson must be independent - On winding up all accumulated econ. interest transferred to beneficiaries or entity with similar objectives. Now Added - Defining Participants and entitlement - Limitation of Fiduciaries discretion - Compulsory AGM and disclosure of financials

29 EMPLOYEE SHARE OWNERSHIP SCHEMES A Worker or Employee Scheme Objective Rules paragraph 2 of Annexe 100 (B) - Constitution must define Participants and the proportion of their entitlement to receive distributions. - Fiduciaries must have no discretion on the above. - Participants must take part in - appointing 50% of fiduciaries. - managing the scheme at a level similar to shareholders in company. - The Constitution must be available in an official language of the requester. - Winding up all interest payable to participants - Financial reports to be presented at annual general meeting of scheme. ANNEXURE 100 (B) VEHICLES

30 TRUSTS Constitution must define Participants and the proportion of their entitlement to receive distributions. - Written record of beneficiaries or reference to defined class of natural person satisfies the requirement for identification. - Written record of fixed % of entitlement or formula satisfies the need for defining proportion of benefit. Fiduciaries must have no discretion on the above (except in case of family trust) On winding up all interest to beneficiaries or similar entity representing interests of beneficiaries. Additional criteria for 100% recognition – certificate by competent person. ANNEXURE 100 (B) VEHICLES

34 MANAGEMENT CONTROL. Key Measurement Principles The Measured Entity must use its current payroll data in calculating its score Collapsing Rules: - If no distinction between Other Executive Management and Senior Management, then Executive Management is measurable as a single indicator with a Weighting of 6 points under paragraphs 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 split as 4 and 2 point respectively. - No provision for collapsing in case of no distinction between other categories.

35 MANAGEMENT CONTROL General Principles Executive Management positions include: CEO, COO, CFO and other Executive Managers that serve on the Board. Other Executive Management positions include: - all executive management that do not serve on the board, e.g. human resource executive, transformation executive; and - other people holding similar positions.

36 Normal Formula A = x D A = the score B =the actual % contribution by the measured entity for that sub-category C = the target D = the weighting B C

37 MANAGEMENT CONTROL. Determining the sub-targets 2.1 The compliance targets for 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 of the Management control scorecard are based on the overall demographic representation of black people as defined in the Regulations of Employment Equity Act and Commission on Employment Equity Report, as amended from time to time 2.2 In determining a Measured Entity’s score, the target should be further broken down into specific criteria according to the different race subgroups within the definition of black in accordance with the Employment Equity Act on an equitable representation and weighted accordingly. Formula Annexure 200(A) further states that: C is the compliance target as per the Regulations of Employment Equity Act and Commission on Employment Equity Report for that measurement sub-category.

44 SKILLS DEVELOPMENT CODE 300 Skills Development now a priority element (40% of targets vs. total weighting points?) New pre-requisites:  SETA approved documents: Workplace Skills Plan, Annual Training Report and Pivotal Report  Implemented Priority Skills programmes for black people No enhanced recognition for ABET programmes Skills Spend target increased from 3% to 6%  Skills spend on unemployed black people now also recognised (double counting SED?)  Mandatory sectorial training does not qualify i.e.. health and safety  The following are limited to 15% of the total Skills Development Expenditure (i.e.. inclusive of spend on non- black):  Category F & G learning Programmes  Legitimate training costs e.g.. accommodation, travelling (non-exhaustive list) MAJOR DIFFERENCES

45 SKILLS DEVELOPMENT CODE 300 MAJOR DIFFERENCES Legitimate Recognisable Training Expenses  Costs of training materials;  Costs of trainers;  Costs of training facilities including costs of catering;  Scholarships and bursaries;  Course fees;  Accommodation and travel; and  Administration costs such as the organization of training including, where appropriate, the cost to the Measured Entity of employing a Skills Development facilitator or a training manager.

46 SKILLS DEVELOPMENT CODE 300 Bonus points for absorption of black people at end of learnerships  Absorption = “a measured entity’s ability to successfully secure formal permanent or long-term contract employment for the Learner or to assist the Learner’s proceed with further education and training”  Seems to be only available for people that were on Learnerships  Tracking tool must be developed to score these bonus points  If less than 100% absorbed then still earn proportionate recognition Salaries or wages only recognised if the Learning Programme is a Learnership, Internship and Apprenticeship (category B, C and D) of the Learning Programme Matrix. New Learning Programme Matrix (Annexe 300A) MAJOR DIFFERENCES

54 Procurement recognition from own Supplier Development Beneficiary with min 3 year contract with ME = BEE spend multiplied by 1.2 Procurement recognition from black owned QSE or EME which is not a supplier development beneficiary with min 3 year contract with ME = BEE spend multiplied by 1.2 Procurement recognition from 1 st time suppliers is multiplied by 1.2 PREFERENTIAL PROCUREMENT WEIGHTED BEE SPEND: Key Measurement principles

55 Concept of Empowering Supplier  All 25 points for procurement require that the suppliers are Empowering Suppliers.  For B2B Procurement the B-BBEE Status level of the business will therefore mean nothing unless it is also an Empowering Supplier.  Definition: Empowering Supplier " B-BBEE compliant entity, which is a good citizen South African entity, comply with all regulatory requirements of the country and should meet at least three if it is a large enterprise or one if it is a QSE of the following criteria: (a) At least 25% of cost of sales excluding labour cost and depreciation must be procured from local producers or local suppliers in SA, for service industry labour cost are included but capped at 15%. (b) Job creation – 50% of jobs created are for Black People provided that the number of black employees since the immediate prior verified B-BBEE Measurement is maintained. (c) At least 25% transformation of raw material/beneficiation which include local manufacturing, production and/or assembly, and/or packaging. (d) Skills transfer – at least spend 12 days per annum of productivity deployed in assisting black EMEs and QSEs beneficiaries to increase their operation or financial capacity.” All EME's automatically qualify as an Empowering Suppliers.

68 Concluding Remarks Some Positives: 1.Some technical issues addressed 2.Emphasis on skills and supplier development 3.Local production and procurement 4.ARG done away with Some Negatives: 1.Several more technical flaws 2.Exclusionary approach 3.Over emphasis of black ownership 51% of total scorecard vs. 28% in previous version – contradicts NDP direction 4.Government procurement practice section 217 of Constitution 5.Contradictions, inconsistencies and drafting errors abound Individuals affected by sub-ordinate legislation must know with a reasonable amount of certainty what is expected of them. In cases where a particular provision of sub-ordinate legislation is certain, that provision is valid. Where it is uncertain that provision should be invalid by reason of uncertainty or vagueness.
