  19. CEO’s Report: Performance Against Business Strategy (…CONT’D) • The 25 October 2006 Cabinet decision brought about a change in focus from creating 6 municipal entity Metro REDs to 6 wall to wall public entity REDs • To implement this decision: • Developed a comprehensive communication and stakeholder engagement strategy • Started the process of developing an implementation strategy and roadmap • Realigned the regional project governance structures to ensure broader participation by municipalities • Developed a new Day One Definition premised on critical mass and representative footprint • We recognize that buy-in from current asset owners and key stakeholders is critical in ensuring that the restructuring process is a success. • To this effect, we believe that a deal that will underpin EDI restructuring will have to be designed and negotiated amongst stakeholders.

  20. LESSONS FROM RED ONE Slide 20

  21. CEO’s Report: Lessons from RED 1 • On 7 December 2006 the City of Cape Town, being the sole shareholder, took a Council Resolution to dissolve RED ONE; liquidation process currently in progress • All agreements were allowed to lapse at the end of December 2006 • The RED ONE eventuality highlighted the challenges of consolidating the industry in a voluntary environment characterised by ambivalent stakeholder support and outstanding policy issues Lessons • An enabling legislative framework is critical to the process • Incompleteness and misalignment of existing legislative regime • The negotiated nature of restructuring makes it impossible to assure the anticipated objectives and results within the stipulated timeframes • Lessons from RED ONE experience will be taken into account in fine tuning our approach, chief of which will be to ensure that DAY ONE is only declared once full business transfer has been effected to the REDs by the current operators
