3. Shell policy of embracing Black Economic Empowerment in South Africa is driven by the imperatives to address the imbalances of the past and to secure the long-term sustainability of our business in a sustainable socio-economic environment

4.  The long term objective of BEE is the normalisation of South African society and it therefore has a number of facets all of which are included in the Oil Industry charter.  The main criteria for success of the transaction are - whether it is aligned with the equity objectives of the Oil Industry Charter -whether it is sustainable  Because of FDI considerations any action on BEE must be perceived positively by the international investment community and that includes the shareholders of multinationals.  The equity element of the charter was transacted by the parties, assisted by their professional advisors on a willing buyer/willing seller basis.  To achieve a successful transaction, two key variables need to be balanced and traded off -sources of capital -where risk is carried The principles underpinning the discussions of the Equity Deals Equity Ownership

13. Crude Procurement: we purchase locally where availability and economics are attractive Challenges: To be sustainable, crude trading (as opposed to purchasing) needs to be a global activity. No BEE trading house consistently offers crude on the global market. Shell South Africa, as a refiner, does not do true crude trading i.e. buy and sell for profit. In line with most oil companies, crude trading is a globalised central activity. Preferential Procurement SHELL LOCAL PURCHASES
