union with its principal place of business at Block C, 242 Jean Avenue, Centurion, Pretoria. It is cited herein as a representative of the employees of the Second Respondent.

PURPOSE OF THE APPLICATION

15

The purpose of this application is to seek the assistance of the Honourable Court to prevent the Applicant from being destroyed

to the irreversible detriment of its ultimate shareholders, being mainly the staffof the Second Respondent and to the irreversible

detriment of the Second Respondent, of which the Applicant is a creditor and in fact a business associate. ln addition, some or

all of the employees of the Applicant may be left with no employment in the event of the demise of the Applicant.

16.

The threat to the Applicant's continued existence has arisen as a result of what I consider to be not only the misguided conduct, but also illegal acts and malicious conduct on the part of the First

Respondent. The First Respondent on behalf of the Second Respondent presently repudiates and

is in the

process of

withdrawing from a contractual relationship that exists between

the Applicant and the Second Respondent for more than 20 years already. The First Respondent at present for no good reason attempts

to unlawfully establish a rival pharmacy to

Iw r

t

/r\


14

Founding Affidavit - Page 7 of 33

7

replace the longstanding arrangement between the Applicant and the Second Respondent.

17.

The abovementioned contractual arrangement was and still is extremely favourable for the Second Respondent. ln fact the Applicant made no profit over the many years during which the arrangement was in place, but served the Second Respondent by effectively supplying it with medicines at cost, as will appear below.

18.

The continued existence of the Applicant is also vital for the survival and future success of the Second Respondent.

19

I will set out reasons why it should be concluded that the First

Respondent is not pursuing the best interests of the Second Respondent and is thus no longer a fit and proper person to continue as the Practitioner of the Second Respondent. The

Applicant asks for his removal in terms of section 139(2)(a) and/or (b) and/or (c) and/or (e) of the Companies Act No 71 of 2008, alternatively section 131(b) thereof.

20.

It is obvious that the First Respondent will not grant leave to the

applicant to launch this application. However I contend that it is in the interests of not only the Applicant but also of all affected

persons

of the Second Respondent and the Second

IrK IA


Founding Affidavit - Page B of 33

15 8

Respondent itself that the serious allegations against the First

Respondent be considered by this Honourable Court. The Applicant thus asks for an order that the Applicant be granted leave by the above Honourable Court in terms of section 133

(1 )

(b) of the Companies Act, Act 71 of 2008 to institute this application and to proceed therewith.

21

.

The Applicant offers, as in the past, to continue to provide supplies to the Second Respondent at cost for the foreseeable future. This is betterthan anything that the First Respondent can

possibly obtain from another supplier or can put together, as

I

wil! spell out below.

22.

The Applicant urgently requires the relief as set out in the notice

of motion in order to survive. It is in the interest, not only of the Applicant, but also

of the Second Respondent and all the

affected persons of the Second Respondent that the Practitioner

in control of the Second

Respondent should conduct the

business of the Second Respondent in such a way that both the

Applicant and the Second Respondent can survive.

THE NATURE OF SECOND RESPONDENT'S BUSINESS AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE APPLICANT

$..4-'S

f

'ilA


Founding Affidavit - Page 9 of 33

16 I

23

The Second Respondent conducts a hospital business. I am advised that it is a legal requirement for any hospital to have

within the same vicinity a pharmacy. As matters stand the Applicant operates a pharmacy in the same building where the

hospital is conducted that provides medication and surgical supplies to the Second Respondent, as would be required

-

on

a continuous24 hour basis.

24.

It is common cause between the Applicant and the First Respondent that his primary duty as a practitioner is to prevent

the Second Respondent from being liquidated by rescuing the Second Respondent and thereby return it to solvency by among

others producing a viable business rescue plan without undue delay.

25

The First Respondent has published a so-called final business

rescue plan on 19 November 2018 but has postponed the meeting of creditors to consider and vote on the proposed plan to 22 January 2019.1 am informed that the First Respondent is

obliged to seek condonation from

a court in the event

that

business rescue proceedings exceed three months. The First Respondent is also obliged to deliver an update at the end of each month pertaining to the proceedings to, among others, all affected persons. I contend that the First Respondent has not complied with its obligations in this regard. I annex a copy of this

|^"IU


Founding Affidavit - Page 10 of 33

proposed plan as Annexure

"C".

This plan does not mention

that the Applicant will be replaced by a new pharmacy to make supplies to the Second Respondent, nor does it mention that the relationship between the Applicant and the Second Respondent

contributed

to the difficulties

Respondent.

experienced

by the Second

I am informed that the directors of the Second

Respondent through the chairman of the board have written a

Ietter to the First Respondent in which they have raised fundamental flaws on the contents of the business plan. I have attached a copy of the letter marked Annexure "D".

26

A fully functional pharmacy is essential to the operations of a hospital because medical supplies are required on a continuous

basis and on some occasions on an urgent basis. lt is and was

therefore at all stages essentia! that the Practitioner should

ensure that the pharmacy that supplies medication to the Second Respondent is enabled, as far as the First Respondent

could do so, to function in an efficient manner. The First Respondent has not only failed to maintain this situation, but,

believe, embarked upon

a process

intended

to destroy

I

the

Applicant for an ulterior purpose. For a considerable time the Applicant and I remained unaware of this strategy.

27.

The recent conflict that has come to the fore between the Applicant and the Practitioner may well cause doctors to prefer

rt^-p


18

Founding Affidavit - Page 11 of 33

11

to make use of other hospital facilities

-

to the ineversible

detriment of both the Second Respondent and the Applicant.

I

suspect that some such damage has already started to materialise. For this reason alone the present application is very urgent.

28

The Second Respondent operates in

a

highly competitive

environment. The pricing of pharmaceutical products is thus of

prime importance for the successful rescue of the Second Respondent, as well as for the future profitability thereof. lt should be clear that the Applicant is best placed to ensure that

medical supplies as required are available to the Second Respondent at the Iowest possible cost.

29

The Practitioner would therefore not be in a good position to turn around and save the business of the Second Respondent if he destroys the Applicant or if the Second Respondent loses the benefit of the favourable contractua! relationship between it and the Applicant that existed over so many years.

30.

The Practitioner over an extended period of time since

his

appointment has not paid the Applicant fully for the products

supplied. The Practitioner has only paid certain amounts to employees and some suppliers of the Applicant. The lack of full

payment for the supplies that the Applicant provided to the

[A"D

12

Second Respondent over time gave rise to the Applicant experiencing serious cash flow problems. By October 2018

I

discussed that with the Practitioner, but this did not bear any fruit.

31

The Applicant is licensed to and operates a pharmacy in a portion of the same building as the Second Respondent. The relationship between the Applicant and the Second Respondent

is a longstanding one which has over the years resulted in an intimate understanding of each other's business. An illustration

of the interdependent nature of the Applicant and the Second Respondent's business is situated therein that the parties have

shared services in respect of amongst others the following: accounting and financial management, information technology

and infrastructure services, leave administration

services,

pension and retirement services administration, and salary and payroll services (l refer to these as "shared services"). Due to the Second Respondent having a significantly higher number of employees who require the shared services, the personnelwho

provided these services are primarily employed by the Second Respondent. This is, of course, a cost effective arrangement.

32

The Applicant many years ago, on or about 1 March 1996, entered into an informal contractual agreement with the Second Respondent in terms of which the Applicant has over the years

f{'fr


20

Founding Affidavit - Page 13 of 33

13

supplied medication and surgical supplies Respondent

to the

Second

- effectively at cost. The Second Respondent on

behalf of the Applicant paid all the Applicant's expenses in operating the pharmacy on its behalf and made available to it

the premises as part of the deal on a nominal rental basis. ln

turn the Second Respondent on

a regular basis levied a

management fee for the services rendered by it to the Applicant,

which amounted thereto that the Applicant made no profits. Sometimes this objective was partly attained by fixing an amount

for rental payable by the Applicant.

I

have attached the

Applicant's financial statements indicating payment of rental in respect of the business premises marked Annexure "E". This

fact is confirmed in the financia! statements of the Second Respondent attached marked Annexure "M". The fact is thus

that the Applicant over the years existed for the benefit of the Second Respondent and the Second Respondent was thus enabled to offer

a highly

competitive service to doctors and

patients.

33

!n confirmation of the above alrangement that existed over the years I refer to the confirmatory affidavit of Frederick Herselman Lloyd, being Annexure

34.

"F"

hereto.

Some years ago there was a restructuring of the ultimate holding

companies of the Second Respondent and the Applicant with

M"a -/ ).

(A


Founding Affidavit -

e L4 of 33

14

the result that the staff of the Second Respondent were given the bulk of the shareholding in the ultimate holding company

(

Louis Pasteur Empowerment Consortium Ltd "LPEC" )-of the Applicant and LPEC was also given 16.10/o ( Sixteen point one

Percent)

of the shareholding of Louis Pasteur

Medical

lnvestments Ltd which is a major shareholder in the Second Respondent holding 74o/o of the shareholding of the Second Respondent.

35.

After this restructuring the arrangement that the Second Respondent could levy a management fee to be determined by the Second Respondent up to an amount that would remove all profit from the Applicant, remained in place. Any profits that the

Second Respondent would allow the Applicant to retain would

then be to the advantage of the ultimate shareholders of the Second Respondent as they as the ultimate shareholders would receive value. This again would benefit the Second Respondent

in that it would promote loyalty on the part of the Second Respondent's staff towards the Second Respondent. However such a situation, namely where profits would be allowed to be

retained by the Applicant, has not materialised: the Second Respondent continued to levy management fees that drained all

the profits of the Applicant.

yp 1=nA


22

Founding Affidavit - Page 15 of 33

15

36.

Nevertheless the plan was and still is that the staff should in future benefit from the shareholding, however that is on the basis

that

it should not detract from the Second

Respondent's

enjoyment of the advantage of receiving supplies at cost.

37

As pointed out above the Applicant's finances are in essence managed by employees

of the Second Respondent.

This

ensures complete transparency for the Second Respondent and

enables that any inefficiency that may be perceived

to be

present can be addressed by the Second Respondent.

3B

The Second Respondent is presently overwhelmingly the main client of the Applicant. However, some patients purchase their prescribed medicine from the Applicant, which is sold to them at

retail pricing. So far the benefit of this was also reaped by the Second Respondent in the final analysis.

39

The Applicant's competitive advantage is that it has traded for more than 20 years and has earned a good reputation amongst its suppliers. lt belongs to a large buying group namely UPD. A

new pharmacy or a small pharmacy will not in practice qualify for

membership of such

a buying group. ln the result the

new

pharmacy that the Practitioner wishes to set up in collusion with

the Applicant's suspended head pharmacist, Ms Maria Jacoba

Aletta van Rensburg ("Ms Van Rensburg") will not be able to

r\,\a n1


Founding Affidavit -

Pag

e 16 of 33

16

render supplies to the Second Respondent at the same low pricing structures.

40

Having ordered various medical supplies from the Applicant since his appointment, the First Respondent has refused without

any cause to make payment in full for these supplies. The Applicant procures medical supplies from various suppliers on

strict payment terms. Because the Second Respondent

in

recent times failed to supply the cash flow for the expenses of

the Applicant and payment of medical supplies procured from

the suppliers, the Applicant incurred a huge

indebtedness

towards its suppliers. The failure on the part of the Applicant to pay the suppliers has led to various suppliers serving letters of

demand on the Applicant and some already refuse to provide

further supplies to the Applicant. This wil! in the foreseeable future lead to the inability of the Applicant to procure adequate supplies, with the resultant inability to supply medication to the

Second Respondent. The letters

of demand are attached

marked annexure 'G". A situation will soon be reached where the Applicant will no longer enjoy the trust of its suppliers and may Iose the favourable pricing structures that it presently still

enjoys and which were built up over many years. lrreparable harm as a result of the breach of the contractual relationship between the Applicant and the Second Respondent by the

Second Respondent under control of the First Respondent is developing.

41

.

The practitioner commenced with his strategy to replace the Applicant in a secretive manner. As pointed out above the Practitioner

did not in the Business Rescue Plan that

developed which

is dated I

September 2018, nor

subsequent amended plan dated and published

he

in

the

on

19

November 2018, mention that there was any problem with the quality or cost of the supplies rendered by the Applicant. Nor was it mentioned that there would be any reason, as part of the

rescue process, to effect any changes to the relationship between the Applicant and the Second Respondent. Nor did the

Practitioner

at any stage complain to the directors or

management

of the Applicant about any aspect of

the

relationship unti! after the Applicant by the end of October 2018 placed the Second Respondent on terms to pay for the medical

supplies on a cash on delivery basis.

42.

Yet it appears from the Practitioner's own version of events, as contained in his letter of 14 December 2018, to which I will refer below, that he sometime during October 2018 already decided

to terminate the relationship between the Applicant and the Second Respondent and decided, as from 1 November 2018 to stop to make payments to suppliers of the Applicant

-

as was

Y*


25

Founding Affidavit - Page 18 of 33

18

the arrangement prior to that date. This, as far as it concerned payments to suppliers of the Applicant, and termination of the relationship with the Applicant were secret decisions on the part of the practitioner .. without prior consultation with the Applicant

and were only communicated to the Applicant by the First Respondent in his Ietter of 14 December 2018.

43.

What the Practitioner did can be summarised as follows:

43.1

.

he starved the Applicant of cash flow;

43.2.

he secretly decided to set up a rival pharmacy;

43.3.

he however continued to obtain supplies from the Applicant without full payment for these, in concert with Ms Van Rensburg,

the applicant's employee -r who

ignored the instructions

of the Applicant to her to

withhold supplies unless paid for in cash (with the exception of medicines required on an urgent basis, which she was instructed to continue to supply without immediate payment).

44.

The Applicant only on 7 December 2018 became aware of the First Respondent's strategy to set up a riva! pharmacy. I learnt

about this when the First Respondent informed doctors about

f\A/0 !f.

A


Founding Affidavit -

Pag

25

e 19 of 33

19

this. I attach a copy of the communication dated 6 December 2018 from the First Respondent to the doctors as Annexure "H".

45.

On learning that the Applicant was continuing to medication

supply

to the Second Respondent on credit terms

I

immediately confronted Ms Van Rensburg. She contended that

she could not refuse to supply to the Second Respondent because that could cause her to be liable in case of a patient suffering as a result of lack of medical supplies. I cannot accept

this explanation. The fact is that the Second Respondent could

obtain medical supplies validly from the Applicant by making

payment

or payment arrangements with the Applicant or

alternatively could have sourced

its supplies from other

pharmacies. Genuine emergency situations would under such

circumstances be few and far between.

It is clear that she

collaborated with the first respondent to bring the applicant to its knees so that they could establish a new pharmacy.

46

In the result the Applicant addressed a letter to the said Ms Van

Rensburg, suspending her and setting out the charges against

her. See Annexure "1" hereto.

47.

From the letter by the First Respondent to the Applicant dated

14 December 2018 it now appears that the First Respondent attempts to use the suspension of the said Ms Van Rensburg as

N^/# ?

n


Founding Affidavit -

Pag

27

e 20 of 33

20

an excuse for officially employing her and to take the stance that

the applicant can no longer trade Iegitimately. That obviously cannot hold water.

48

I contend that the conduct of the First Respondent is in stark contrast to what could be expected of a practitioner who acted

bona fide. I refer now to the First Respondent's letter of 14 December 2018, a copy of which is attached hereto asAnnexure ..Jrr.

48.1

.

Firstly, a bona fide practitioner would have conducted a

thorough investigation of the situation before making any decisions. The First Respondent in his letter of 14 December 2018 alleges that he did

so. However, it is

now the first time that this is alleged. Furthermore, such

investigation would have consisted of the Practitioner seeking cooperation and information from me and the

other representatives of the Applicant. That never happened. I therefore contend that the alleged thorough investigation never took place. A bona fide and thorough

investigation in any event would have brought to light

that the said relationship serves the interests of the Second Respondent excellently.

il\Afr i

A


28

Founding Affidavit - Page 21 of 33

21

48.2.

However should a practitioner, despite what I contend

for above, have concluded (incorrectly) during October

2018 that the relationship was detrimental for the Second Respondent and should be terminated, a bona

fide practitioner would immediately have written to the Applicant informing the Applicant of the finding and inviting the applicant to comment thereon.

48.3.

Should that not have resulted in a positive response a bona fide practitioner would have given a formal notice

of his intention to terminate the relationship.

48.4.

Such

a

cooperation

of the Applicant to

terminate the

relationship in an orderly manner, allowing time for the practitioner

to set up a new pharmacy or to

source

supplies, preferably by asking for tenders from reputable

pharmacies

in order to replace the service of

the

Applicant. At the same time the applicant would have

been given time to seek alternative clients or to wind down its business

The practitioner would have given the Applicant notice to vacate the premises occupied in the hospital or would

have put it on terms in future to pay a market related rental for the occupation of the premises.

49.

I

contend that the First Respondent's conduct is in stark contrast

to the above.

50

In addition, and subsequently to the above, the First Respondent

then promptly employed the Applicant's Ms Van Rensburg

-

instead of encouraging her to explain her conduct during a disciplinary hearing. Furthermore she ordered, on or about 14 December 2018 further supplies from a supplier of the Applicant in the name and on the account of the Applicant. She however requested that when the delivery would be made she should be

phoned on her cell phone so that she could alrange for the delivery not to be made to the Applicant's pharmacy but to a location which she would indicate. Upon being informed of this

telephoned one

I

of the employees of UPD, the Applicant's

suppliers, who informed me that the First Respondent had discussions with them at which he negotiated an increase in the

Applicant's credit facility and urged them to support endeavours to turn the hospitalaround. They could not refuse the request as in their view the hospital and the pharmacy constitute the same entity.

The Applicant was fortunate enough to discover the above secret order and to draw the attention of the supplier to what was

happening.

correspondence in this regard which shows the underhand conduct of the new rival pharmacy.

52

I contend that the First Respondent, not being a pharmacist, is in no position to set up a new pharmacy which could realistically

expect to be more effective than the Applicant is or could become (should any adjustment of its business be required). ln

this regard I point out that as the employees of the Second Respondent have full insight into the business of the Applicant at allstages, the Second Respondent is obviously in an excellent

position to suggest and to implement any improvements in the effective running of the Applicant's business, to the extent these

are required.

53.

Under the circumstances I contend that what happened in reality

is that the First Respondent pursued a hidden agenda, it appears, in conjunction with the said Ms Van Rensburg to create

a new business opportunity

-

but clearly not in the interests or

the benefit of the Second Respondent.

54

The First Respondent in his letter of 14 December 2018 denies that the Second Respondent owes the Applicant any money for

"L"

a summary

of medical supplies provided to and invoiced by the Second Respondent to its patients together with a summary of payments

that were made by it to the Applicant. I contend this denial cannot possibly be bona fide.

55.

However the situation is viewed, it must be clear that it cannot be denied that the Applicant presently owes amounts in excess

of R 20 million to its suppliers. ln terms of the arrangement refened to above such a situation should never have occurred more particularly under the watch of a bona fide practitioner. !t

is thus clear that the Second Respondent

breached the

contractual obligation towards the Applicant, namely to fund the cash flow of the Applicant adequately in order that the Applicant

could maintain its good reputation and obtain the best possible

56.

all for the benefit of the Second Respondent.

discounts

-

I contend

that it is in the interest of the Second Respondent that

the status quo be restored and that the Second Respondent should take responsibility to ensure that all the suppliers of the Applicant are paid in respect of arrears in order to prevent the relationship between the Applicant and the distributors to be irretrievably destroyed.

I point out that all and any profits that the Applicant might have made since the Iast occasion when management fees or rent in respect of the premises were levied have long been depleted by now.

58

As appears from the letter from the First Respondent dated 14 December 2018,

the First Respondent admits that

the

Second Respondent owes the Applicant a sum of more than R9 million for pre-rescue

debt. ! contend that this amount is in

fact much larger in that a further amount of R4 783 620.00 is also due in respect of the period prior to the commencement of

rescue. As the Second Respondent, and thus the

First

Respondent, has full access to all the relevant documentation

any denial of this fact cannot be bona fide. An extract of the financial statements of the Second Respondent which have been accepted as correct by the First Respondent is attached marked annexure "M".

59.

Furthermore

the position since rescue

commenced has

deteriorated. The First Respondent never made arrangements

with the Applicant

any

to furnish the Second

Respondent with post-commencement finance. He simply did

not comply with the obligations in terms of the contractual relationship. I am informed that the Second Respondent owes the Applicant for purchases since rescue commenced at Ieast R

60

In respect of the conduct of Ms Van Rensburg I attach hereto a

letter dated 25 October 2018 from the Applicant to the said Ms

Van Rensburg marked annexure "O". I point out that

I

personally discussed this with her at the time to refrain from supplying products to the Second Respondent without receipt of

payment other than in respect of emergency medication which

could be supplied on credit. ln any event,

if the Second

Respondent chose to obtain medical supplies from third party suppliers it would in all probability have to pay for such upon

delivery. However, knowledge

it

now appears that she, without

the

of myself or the other director of the Applicant

continued to supply goods for millions of Rands to the Second Respondent in violation of this instruction on the pretext that such supplies were for emergency supplies.

61.

I point out that the First Respondent has now illegally occupied premises on the ground floor of the building for purposes of the

new pharmacy.

I have been informed that Louis Pasteur

Holdings Proprietary Limited, who has signed a headlease in respect of the premises, is about to take steps to enforce its

rights in this regard. However, whether or not the First Respondent wil! have premises available for the conduct of a

l\^/k

pharmacy in competition with the Applicant is unclear at this stage. The fact remains that the First Respondent planned this obviously in advance of the Applicant suspending the said Ms

Van Rensburg. ln fact the Applicant only suspended Ms Van Rensburg

on 07 December 2018 a day after the

First

Respondent's communication of the plans to partner with a new pharmacy on 6 December 2018.

62

The First Respondent also takes the attitude in his letter of 14 December 2018 that the Applicant is trading illegally because it suspended the services of the said Ms Van Rensburg and as a result of her now joining the First Respondent in setting up a new

pharmacy. This is devoid of any substance. The position is that although the said Ms Van Rensburg was the senior pharmacist she obviously could not always be available. The fact is that the

Applicant in fact has six other registered pharmacists

in its

employ. The First Respondent's allegation that the Applicant has no registered pharmacists in its employ is totally incorect.

There at all stages existed a hierarchy of pharmacists in the employ of the Applicant and as soon as the one in charge is not

available the

ne*

senior person must take charge. This

arrangement is common and established at the pharmacy. As at this stage, and as far as ! could verify the said Ms van Rensburg had not yet officially reported her departure from the applicant to

f'A-S

28

the South African Pharmacy Council, which would open the way

for the applicant to register

a

new permanent head of

pharmacists.

63

The First Respondent at this stage still continues to obtain medical supplies from the Applicant for the Second Respondent.

64.

What the First Respondent also did was to make payment during November 2018 to certain of the Applicant's staff. The Applicant also paid those employees because the Applicant was under the

impression that the First Respondent refused to do

so.

Some

employees thus received double payment under circumstances

where the Applicant's cash flow was already under serious pressure.

65

What the First Respondent further does is to offer employment

to some of the Applicant's employees. I suppose that is the reason why the First Respondent effected payment to certain of

the Applicant's employees and not all of them. I contend that what the First Respondent thereby attempts to do is to abuse

the situation: he causes a serious breach of contract by not

paying the Applicant's suppliers and by not funding the Applicant's cash flow and then

to offer certain employees

employment under circumstances where the Applicant finds it extremely difficult to pay them their salaries. ln this way the First U\^"4Pr

\

A


Founding Atridavit -

Pag

36

e 29 of 33

29

Respondent attempts to obtain an improper advantage, based on his own breach of contract and unethical conduct, for the new pharmacy that he is in the process of setting up. The Applicant has made payment of salaries to all its employees for the month

ending December 2018 following which its cash resources have been depleted.

66

A further example of the unfair trading in competition with the

Applicant

is situated in the way in which the Applicant's

relationship with

the suppliers were utilised by the

new

pharmacy to obtain its supplies.

67.

I point out that the first respondent alleges in his letter of December 2018 that

14

it is the applicant that repudiated the

contract when the applicant informed the first respondent on 10

November 2018 that it would temporarily withhold performance

of certain administrative functions until payment is received.

I

contend that this is without foundation as it ignores the fact that

such is justified on the basis of the reciprocity of performance

and where the first respondent has caused the

second

respondent to repudiate the agreement in no uncertain terms.

I

contend this defence is also not bona fide. ln any event it still does not justify the termination of a relationship that is required

to be continued with in the best interests of the Second Respondent.

The Applicant has since suspension of Ms van Rensburg communicated

to its employees, through the

administration

manager, Yaseera Amod to continue supplying the Second Respondent with all medical supplies, despite its failure to make

payment,

to avoid a possible impression that it intends

to

repudiate its existing agreement with the Second Respondent.

URGENGY

69

As spelt out above the Applicant has no furtherfunds and cannot

survive unless the relief prayed for is granted as a matter of extreme urgency. I point out that the Applicant over all the years

existed and traded solely for the benefit

of the Second

Respondent and there is no question of the Applicant having benefited at the cost of the Second Respondent as the First Respondent attempts to portray. Any profits that the Applicant might have made can in fact be recovered from the Applicant by

the Second Respondent in terms of the existing arrangement in

terms whereof any such profits can be recovered from the Applicant by way of a management fee or rental payments that the Second Respondent can levy on the Applicant.

70

I have been informed that the First Respondent has not paid rental for the hospital building occupied by the Second Respondent since assuming duties as

a practitioner. !

further informed that the Second Respondent should have

surplus funds

to pay for medical

supplies

as the

First

Respondent, since the commencement of business rescue, has

not made payments in respect for the hospital premises and management fees previously paid by the Second Respondent in addition to the amounts not paid to the Applicant.

71.

I am informed that the First Respondent is involved in various disputes with the board of directors of the Second Respondent

over among others his failure to account for funds

and

transparency in his management of the affairs of the Second Respondent.

72,

I

point out that in the letter

of 14 December 2018 the First

Respondent takes the attitude that one of the reasons why he would refuse to pay the Applicant is because the Applicant owes money to SARS and should he make payment to the Applicant

then SARS would be in a position to obtain payment thereof.

I

contend that this illustrates the unethical approach of the First Respondent.

73

In the result the balance of convenience, insofar as that may be

of importance is that the status quo, as it existed prior to the Second Respondent repudiating the contractual relationship

NA/o,/

between the parties should be restored as a matter of urgency and be maintained going forward.

CONGLUSION

74

Under the circumstances

I

contend that

it is clear that the

Applicant is entitled to an order that the First Respondent be removed as practitioner. Further, that the Second Respondent

should be interdicted from establishing a rival pharmacy

-

in

whatever name or form it intends to do so.

75.

ln the result I contend that the Applicant has made out a proper case for the relief prayed

for. lnsofar as the Applicant

prays for

an interdict I contend that the Applicant has a clear right, not only

in contract, but also on the basis that it is the duty of the First Respondent, as a practitioner and as an officer of Court, only to

pursue the best interests of the Second Respondent whilst he clearly is not doing

so. Furthermore, the irreparable harm

that

the Applicant is suffering and stands to suffer is beyond doubt. The Applicant clearly has no other remedy if it can no Ionger rely on the Second Respondent as its main customer to comply with

its obligations towards the Applicant, then the Applicant faces demise.

In the result I pray for an order as set out in the notice of motion

INTRODUCTION

r..L

This is the business rescue plan prepared for Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings

(Pty) Ltd (1992/001696/07) (in Business Rescue) by the business rescue practitioner of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6 of the Companies Act No. 7L of 2008;

L.2

The business rescue plan will be presented to all affected persons by the BRP

and the affected persons will have the opportunity to consider the business rescue plan and, if deemed fit, adopt the business rescue plan with or without modification;

1".3

The business rescue proceedings commenced on 0& June 2018;

L,4

Etienne Naude was subsequently appointed as the senior business rescue practitioner (BRP) of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd;

L.5

Corpnrate Governance and Social Responsibility

ln attempting to successfully rescue the business, it would be the aim and

purpose

of the appointed

practitioner

encompass the social responsibility

to

publish

of the

a

plan that would

business and which shall

capitulate to the economic, legal, ethical and discretionary expectations that

the comrnunity may have of the business.

1.6

Evidently, an adopted business rescue plan properly implemented, will therefore constitute an agreement between the business, various stakeholder

groups and the broader community it serves.

wn ,^

L.7

The practitioner will therefore apply the following strategies in his plan:

L.7,L

Engagement wherehy he shall identify areas for improvement in the ethical, social and environmental policy of the company;

L.7.2

Preference: work

to a list of

guidelines that the affected

7.3

Screening: decisions to trade, invest and operate be lirnited to

the econornic, legal, ethical and discretionary expectations of the cornrnunity and relevant stakeholders;

1-.8

ln recognizing thatthe business must ultimately be managed bythe directors for the benefit of the shareholders, the practitioner shall place a firm emphasis in his plan to rescue the business, taking into consideration the interests of all

stakeholders relevant to the business, Full disclosure will be made with regards to the risks affecting the business as well as an interim projection of

the performance of the business over the ensuing few months.

1S

The overriding focus of shareholder value will therefore become less selfevident.

r..r-0

The practitioner will consequently seek to enhance the

business's

competitive advantage, create a win-win relationship with its stakeholders,

and to realize gains from cost and risk reduction and legitimacy and reputation benefits.

A successful plan will further achieve an enlightened value maximization over

the long run establishing it as the criterion for making the requisite trade-offs amongst Stakeholders, which will solve the problems that may have arisen from multiple objectives that accompanied and contributed to the business's cu rrent financial distress.

L"L2

Effective Chanfr e manaffi ement

ln compiling the business rescue plan the practitioner considered Porter's

forces

of change

management which requires consideration

of

the

competitiveness of the business environment relevant to the business to ensure growth and irnprovernent of the associated business Structure.

These considerations are:

1,.LZ.L

Competitive Rivalry: hlarket research has shown that a major issue to be addressed

in the business is the quality of service and treatrnent that patients recsive at the hospital. This must improve to give the busines$ a competitive advantage in the rnarket.

L,L2,2

Supplier Power:

A further obiective will be to establish the busines$ as the preferred health care facility to which patients are referred to, and to onsure that the appropriate fee structures are in place

and aligned with the prescribed rnedical aid tariffs, to ensure bills are settled on tirne. The practitioner will be required to

L.T2,3

Buyer Power It is anticipated that oncf; the quality of service and treatment improve$, p?tients will prefer the healthcare facility as a costeffective alternative to its competitors.

Considering the history of the business the practitioner will be required to

implement certain effective change management strategies:

These strategies are:

Cultural Values:

The ernployees' skills (doctors, nurses, etc.) and relationship

is one of the

cornerstones

Act your way into new thinking

Many actions have been taken by the business rescue practitioner as $et out in section 34.3 of the plan. One of the actions still need to be taken is the upgrading of the systeffis,

which will create cost effectiveness and will be less tirne consuming, leaving staff to tend to patients and bther pressing matters.

EVENTS LEA:D|Ng TO THE FINANCIAL DISTRESS.. OF LOUIS PASTEUR HOSPITAL HOLDTNGS (PTY) LTD

6.1

According to the affidavit deposed to by a director in support of the resolution

to place Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) ttd under business rescue proceedings, Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd was experiencing severe cash flow difficulties and was unable to meet its payment obligations

to its creditors as and when such payments fell due. Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd did not have funds wherewith to pay its creditors and to fund the continuance on of its business activities;

s,2

The current reasons for the financially distressed business are

s"2,1

A long standing dispute between the two rnain shareholders of

the company which has resulted in litigation which has had a harmful effect on the company.

fi.2"2

The dispute has led to lack of financial support by financial institutions who were awaiting the outcome of the litigation.

A^0


67

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 2018 - Page23 of 87

23 6.2.3

As a result of inter alia the dispute, the Bankers of the LpHH have reduced the overdraft facilities of LPHH leading to cash flow constraints,

6,2,4

The dispute in this matter concerns the terms of a funding agreement and the right to proceeds of policies ceded in terms of two sessions. The terms of the funding agreement together

with the cession$ determine the rights to the proceeds to two Sanlam investment policies, which were paid to Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd on maturity. ln particular, the parties

dispute whether the cession was an out-and-out cession (as contended by the Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd) or

a cession in securitatem debiti (as contended by Bonitas Medical Fund (Pty) Ltd), An out-and-out cession is made to affect an alienation of a right, and effects a cornplete transfer nf

the right to the cessionary. A cession in securitatem debiti resembles a pledge, and the cedent is not wholly divested of an

interest in the asset it provided as security to the cessionary, because, notwithstanding the cession, the cedent retains what has been descrihed as reversionary interest.

6,2.5

The High Court, in Pretoria, in effectively finding that the cession was a cession in securitat*m dabiti. lt resolved the dispute with

reference to both interpretation of the agreement and by inferring a tacit terrn. That taclt term contradicted the express terms of the cession.

fqp


68

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page24 of 87

24, 6.2 6

The result of the High Court's judgment, and the effect of the SCA upholding that judgment, is one of the reasons why the

Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (pry) Ltd is now financially distressed.

6.2.7

The Louis Pasreur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd has now lodged

and filed a Notice of Application for Leave to Appeal to the Constitutional Csurt which appeal is pending.

6,3

Subsequently Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd has lost the case in

the SCA in Bloemfontein and is now indebted to Bonitas in the amount of approximately R88 000 000,00 with costs.

6.4

At the commencement date, Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd was

indebted to its primary creditor, namely SARS, in a sum of approximately R76 000 000,00 and Bonitas in a sum of approximately R88 000 000,00. The BRP has now received a further claim has now been lodged by SARS for the VAT of the period ending May 2018 that was not paid by LPHH. The BRP and SARS have a difference of opinion as to whether this claim is a pre-business

rescue claim or a post-business rescue claim. The BRP proposes that this

claim be treated separately from the claims of the other creditors.

6"5

Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd's business activities prior to the commencement date did not generate sufficient cash to settle its creditors on an ongoing basis, more specifically SARS and later on Bonitas.

CONDUCT

INGS

LTD'S BUSINESS

SUBSEQUENT TO THE COMMENCEMENT DATE

7.1

The BRP investigated Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd's records and

business affairs to establish whether or not Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings

(Pty) Ltd has a commercially viable business which is capable of being rescued by taking appropriate restructuring measures aimed at returning

Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd to

a

profitable status or which

rneasures would result in a better return for Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd's creditors than its immediate liquidation;

7.2

The entire cash flow situation of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd is exacerbated by Bonitas and SARS claims;

7,3

Pursuant to the above investigation, the BRP concluded that for Louis Pasteur

Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd to be rescued as contemplated in Chapter 6 of the Act, it is necessary for SARS and Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pb7) Ltd to

settle the disputes arising from SARS claim on the terms set out in this plan'

which plan inter aliacontemplates a reduction of SARS claim.

7,4

ln addition the BRP has in terms of clause 7.1 appointed an expert

(ACT

Solutions) to advise it of the benefits to be obtalned from a restructuring of

the Business of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd both from a ta,r and corporate structure and operational efficiency point of views.

Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd and allow that creditor to share in the success of

LPHH. Should such a financial restructuring of LPHH be acceptable to the creditors of LPHH who are also shareholders in LPHH it will be an imrnense vote of confidence of the shareholders of LPH H i n the future success of LPHH.

Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd did not file or register with CIPC, a

MANAGEMENTAGREEMENT BETWEEN LPHH AND FCPO

The BRP is in the possession of a Management Agreement between LPH and LPHH which was signed on the 30" August 201L.

2L.L

I have been informed by Adam that this agreement has been cancelled but

was not handed a cancellation agreement.

2L,1.1

Therefore a new Management Agreernent was entered into

between FCPO and LPHH on 3'MaY 2016.

2L.2

It is not clear from the hospital license that LPHH has any clear right what so

ever in terms on which it is entitled to appoint FCPO to manage the hospital. It is not clear on what basis LPHH has the right to enter into an agreement

with FCPO for purposes of management of the hospital, especially as the sub-

lease agreement was only entered into after the new management agreement,

2l- 3

At my appointrnent date FCPO had no staff and never tendered to assist me as they have no staff.

2L.4

It also appears from the

document setting out the resolutions entered into the

agreement that the resolution of LPHH was only taken by the Exco of the Board of LPHH. The agreement was therefore not authorized by the Board of Directors,

r^ t.

ft

il


82

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 20L8 - Page 38 of 87

3B

agreement is void from lack of authority.

21.5

I am therefore of the view that the

2r_.6

An agreement such as this managernent agreement, for the reasons Set out above, that lead to an illegality, and that has illegality as its purpose, will be

found by a court to be void and valid.

?,2.

SUB.LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN FCPO AND LPHH

22.1

An agreement of sub-lease between LPH and LPHH was signed on 28' March 2O12at Pretoria. This agreement has lapsed and I can only assume that as a

result of this a new sub-lease agreement Was concluded between LPHH and FCPO on

22.2

2b September

2OL7.

The new sub-lease agreement should now be considered in the light of the above mentioned.

22.3

The same principle pertaining to the authority of LPHH to enter into the agreement of sub-lease as referred to above applies in respect of this sublease agreement. lf the board of directors did not take a proper decision to enter into the agreement, the lack of authority will cause the agreement to be

void, on the basis of my interpretation of section 20(1Xb) of the Companies Act above.

2?.,4

The provisions of this sub-lease agreement indicate that the main intention of this agreement as well as the management agreement is to transfer funds

from LPHH to

FCPO.

^/\fr \

83

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 2018 - Page 39 of 87

39 22,4.1

ACT Solutions prepared a report for the BRP in respect of a

claim whereby FCPO claimed an amount of R99 084 L26 owed to them by LPHH. I shall elaborate on this claim further in this

report. I annex a copy of the report as annexure "8RP16".

ln

their report they state that no resolutions where handed to them.

2?.5

lf regard is had to the very high amounts payable in respect of rentals in

terms

of this agreement, it appears to me that the intention of the agreement was

not really a rental agreement, but simply an agreement to constitute a basis for expenses in LPHH, which could be deducted from income from LPHH.

22.6

The management agreement also has that effect if one has regard to the

remuneration referred to in that agreement. The remuneration in that agreement appears

to be exorbitant as it is based on 7,5o/o of the gross

turnover of the hospital including the pharmacy turnover plus VAT, and a fee

equal to

l-,50lo

of the gross turnover of the hospital including the pharmacy

turnover for its services to market the hospital plus VAT.

?2.7

Such percentages on gross turnover do not appear to me to be reasonable and justifiable, and I have been informed that it is not market related at all.

22.8

It therefore appears also that the management agreement

was intended to

create high expenses for LPHH, to offset such expenses against the income of LPHH.

fArft t

{


Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 -

Pag

84

e 40 of 87

40 ?2"9

ln any event, the lease agreement also intends to create a situation whereby LPHH rents the hospital premises from FCPO, and whereby it is intended that LPHH should conduct the hospital business. This again will be contrary to

the regulations referred to above as LPHH would not be a party who would be entitled to the rights in the hospital license.

22.10

For the same reasons therefore as raised above

in

respect

of the

management agreement, this agreement also has an illegal purpose.

22.r1.

I am furtherrnore of the view that both agreements read together with reference to the abovementioned issues are vague.

22.12

A court would not apply a benevolent interpretation to such an extent that it

would be making a contract for the parties and finding consensus ad idem by mere conjecture.

7,2.r3

lf the contracts were also entered into with a view to create an incorrect impression in respect of the financial statements, and to create expenses to

deduct from incorne in the books of account of LPHH, the agreements will also suffer the same fate as it will mean that the agreements are then not what they are supposed to be.

22_14

Parties may arrange their affairs to avoid statutory provisions, provided their

arrangement does not result in a simulated transaction, which is in fraudem legis.

l\A fr \

\

,fl


8s

Annexure C - Business Rescue PIan dated 19 Nov 20L8 - Page 4T of 87

4L 22.L5

ln my view, these contracts were never really intended to provide FCPO with the right to conduct the business of the hospital, as the facts show that LPHH at all relevant times conducted the business of the hospital. There was also

not a real intention of LPHH to hire the hospital from FCPO for purposes of conducting the hospital business. I am of the view that both agreements are therefore simulated transactions with a view to create higher expenses than market related expenses for LPHH, to be able to offset same against incorne for tax purposes.

22.1,6

The main principle to be applied is whether a transaction serves a legitimate

commercial purpose, and a court must examine the transaction as a whole,

including surrounding circumstances, unusual features of the transaction

and the manner in which the parties intend to implernent it, before determining whether a transaction is simulated or not.

22.L7

ln my view, the commercial purpose of any of the two agreements is not clear

at all, both transactions have extremely unusual

features, and the

transactions aS a whole are vague to such an extent that it cannot be determined on the basis of interpretation thereot what the parties really wanted to achieve.

22.1_B

The only possible end result that can be deduced from the agreements is the extremely high expenses created for LPHH, with reference to the rental in the sub-lease agreement being huge and much higherthat market related rental, and the payment of the management service fee in terms of the management

agreement also being much higher than market related or reasonable prices.

B-fr i

*2 22.r9

An important further fact that contributes to the abovementioned conclusions is the fact that FCPO and LPHH are interrelated companies, with the Same

directors and boards of directors, and they are controlled by the same parties. These transactions are therefore not really arms-length transactions'

22.?0

It makes no sense that FCPO lets the property to LPHH, who then contract FCPO again to manage the hospital. There is no clear sense of purpose in that.

22.2r

The BRP is in the process of negotiating with FCPO to reduce the rental amount. The BRP shall report further on this aspect at the creditors rneeting.

BONITAS CLAIM

34.7.L

The Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd lost both cases in

the High Court in Pretoria and the Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein,

34.7.2

The effect rhereof is that Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) t

Ltd owes Bonitas an amount of RBB 000 000 being capital and

interest. Bonitas hold no security for its claim.

34.7.3

Louis pasreur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd has filed

an

application for Leave to Appeal to the Constitutional Court.

947.4

The application for Leave to Appeal is still pending

34,7.5

Until the Constitutional Court has rnade its ruling Bonitas remains a creditor that has to be paid.

34.7.6

Cornpanies frequently enter

into complicated financial

arrangements in order to raise funds, either by borrowing (deb$ or through issuing shares (equity). Debt can be either secured

or unsecured. Where significant

arnounts

of money are

borrowed from third party financiers, those financiers will

p A,A /\


Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 20L8 - Page57 of 87

101 57

typically require security for the funds. The type of security provided affects the financiers' risk, and consequently the size of funds advanced aS well as the payment terrns'

34.7 7

As I will explain in more detail, below the debt in this mafier was

secured by rneans of a cession-

34.7.8

ln this matter, the dispute between Bonitas and LPHH concerns

the terms of the cession. The terms of the cession determine

the rights of the proceeds of the two Sanlarn investments policies, which were paid to IPHH on rnaturity. ln particular, the

party's disputes whether the cession was an out-and-out cession (as contended by LPHH) or a cession in securitatem

debiti, An out-and-out cession is rnade to affect an alienation

of a right, and effects a complete transfer of the right to the cessionary. A cessio n in securitatem debitiresembles a pledge, and the cedent is not wholly divested of an interest in the asset he provided a$ security to the cessionary, because,

notwithstanding the cessiotl, the cedent retains what has been described as a reversionary interest.

34 7.9

Debt financing arrangements are almost invariably reduced to

writing, as it is necessary for the terms of the often-complex arrangements to be clear and unequivocal. Third parties may rely on the express written terms of the agreernent, in order to determine the strength of the security, their risk and so forth.

THE DEED OF SALE OF DEBENTURES

34.8.2.L

Section 43 of the Companies Act provides for "debt instruments", which in terms of the old L973 Act were inter alia referred to as debentures.

34.82.2

A debt instrument is defined in section 43(1)(a) as

to include any securities other than the shares of a company irrespective of whether or not issued in terms of a security document such as a trust deed, but does not include prornissory notes and loans.

34.8.2.3

Because the word "debenture" is not defined in the Cornpanies Act, a debenture as defined in the

cornmon law may be issued by the company in addition to a debt instrument and the provisions

A4 -fu


103

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 20L8 - Page59 of 87

59

of section 43 should then apply to such a debentu re.

34.8.2.4

The meaning of a debenture is imprecise, but it

has been interpreted to mean any document however it may be described, ?ffd whatever form

it may take, which creates or acknowledges in the company to another for monies advanced or to be advanced to the

indebtedness company.

34.8.2,5

A debenture has some aspect and type of loan as

element or as causa for the debt, and it may be argued that it is not a debt instrurnent as rneant in section 43. lt is, however, argued by acadernic

writers that it does constitute a debt instrument. 34.8.2.6

It is also irnportant to note that a debentu re can

also be

a credit

agreement

in terms of

the

National credit Act, Nr 34 of 2005. ln this regard,

the company should be considered as

the

consumer (borrower). lf the consumer is a juristic person, the National Credit Act does not apply if the asset value or turnover of the juristic person is in excess of RL million. Although I have not been

provided with information in this regard, there should be no doubt that LPH has an asset value

of rnore than RL million and also a turnover of more than R1 million. 34.8,2.7

Furthermore, the National Credit Act will also not apply to credit agreernents where parties are not deali ng at arrns-length,

f\/L re :,

-'A


104

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page 60 of 87

60 34.8.2.8

A shareholder's loan for instance is a transaction

that is not a deal at arms-length and that

is

excluded from the National Credit Act. ln rny view

the debenture transaction under discussion

is

also not an arrns-length deal, because of inter alia the similarity of directors.

34.8.2.9

Section 43(2) of the Companies Act provides that

the board of a company rnay authortse the company to issue a secured or unsecured debt

instrument at any tirne except to the extent provided otherwise by the mernorandum of incorporation and must determine whether each such debt instrument is secured or unsecured.

34.8,2.1_0

Section 43(3) provides that a debt instrument issued by a company may for instance grant special privileges.

34.8.2.1L

It is therefore clear that the board of directors of a

cornpany may authorise the issue

of a

debt

instrurnent such as a debenture. 34.8.2.12

The following is to be noted in respect of the structure in terms of the agreement:

34.8.2,L2.1,

L.So/o

interest on the value of the 600

debentures must be paid out in cash every year;

34.8.2.L2.2 the net effect therefore over a long period of time is a transfer of value per annurn from LPH to LPHH;

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page 6I of 87

6l34.8,2.L2.3

LPH on the other hand in respect of

the loan account may subordinate the claim against LPHH to improve its balance sheet;

34,8.2.L2.4

therefore, LPH obtains capital growth on the loan account and because the loan can be

subordinated in LPHH, it would not

lead

to any insolvency

issues or

other issues in respect of LPHH: 34,8.2.L2.5

the intention is to create a

net

rnovement of wealth apparently from LPH to LPHH without it being done in terrns of a straight fonruard loan;

34.8.2.12.6

the interest rate on the

loan

account in respect of the amount owed by LPHH to LPH is 8%o;

34.8.2.L2.7 on the other hand the interest rate on the debentu res is 970;

34.8.2.L2.8

there is therefore a transfer of wealth from LPH to LPHH in this regard.

34.8.2.r.2.9

the loan account shall be convertible at the end of 15 years to

in LPHH, which will require a special convertible debentures

resolution and the approval of the board of directors;

106

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page 62 of 87

if the approvals are not obtained, the loan account shall be redeernable at the deerned value on the conversion date or such later

date agreed to in writing between LPHH and LPH:

34 8.2.r2.1L

the LPH

debentu

re shall

be

convertible to LPH preferent shares at the option of LPHH or any holder

thereof at any time after the

15"

anniversary of the effective, date by

giving written notice to LPH such shares shall be unsecured and earn

a return equal to 9o/o per annum, and shall be transferable and assignable; 34.8.2.L2.L2

h it may be converted it is not perernptory and it is at the option of the holder of the LPH althoug

debentures namely LPHH or any other holder at the time.

34.8.2.J-3

The whole transaction must therefore analysed, and

it

be

appears that the following

disconcerting aspects must be considered: 34.8,2.13.1

there is no legal causafor either the

issue of the debentures or the creation of the loan account; 34.8.2.L3.2

the 3..5o/o income interest that

is

payable on the debentures per year

is paid in cash by LPH to

LPHH

every year;

f-,\-fr \

{


107

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 N ov 2018 - Page 63 of 87

63 34.8,2.J-3.3

the wealth transfer therefor lies in the amounts in cash Paid every year by LPH to LPHH in resPect of the debentures;

34.8.2,13.4

a causa is therefore artificiallY rposes of transfer of

created for

pu

the

on the value of

L.SYo

the

debentures every year, which did not exist before;

34.8.2 13.5

this creates a transfer of wealth from LPH to LPHH on the basis of the afiificially created legal causa narnely the issue of the debentures;

34.8"2.13.6

a conversion of the debentures to preference shares after 15 Years would have the effect that LPHH obtains preference shares in LPH in return forthe transfer of wealth frorn LPH

34.8.?.r4

to LPHH every month.

There is therefore an enrichrnent of at least l-% of

the value of the debentures between LPH and LPHH, which may lead to LPHH owning shares in

LPH after 15 years.

34.8.2.L5

LpH therefore contributes financially to LpH H obtaining shares in LPH, should the debentures be converted.

/Vfr \

108

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page 64 of 87

Such financial assistance for purposes of the subscription of an option (to convert the debentures into shares), may not be done save in

the event of a special resolution of shareholders as referred to in sections 44(2) and (3) of the Act. 34,8,?,T7

It appears that the ultimate goal of the transaction

is to transfer wealth from LPH to LPHH without

any causa having existed for it, before

the

debentures were issued and the transaction was entered into, which may eventually result in LPHH

owning preferent shares in LPH. 34.8.21-8

This aspect rnay be arguable in the sense that the

main object may not be the acquisition of shares

by LPHH, but rather the transfer of wealth for no causa or reason. ln that regard the transaction

will not fall foul of section 44 of the Companies

Act, regarding the provision of assistance

financial

in the acquisition of shares by a

company. 34.8.2.19

It rnust be determined what the direct object of the transaction was and whether it is equivalent

or sufficiently similar to the prohibited purpose. The fact that the giving of financial assistance was incidental to the purchase or obtaining of shares, would not justify a conclusion that the prohibition has been contravened.

109

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 20L8 - Page 65 of 87

65 34.8.2.20

Although I do not have any documentation indicating the purpose of the issue of the debentures and of the transaction, it appears to me that the main purpose of the transaction is to

transfer wealth, from one company to another, through creating an apparently legal causa that did not exist before. 34.8.2.2L

lf that is so, it will be arguable whether the transaction is void in terms of section 44 of Cornpanies Act.

34.8.2.22

It is important to note that 7.5a/o of the interest on

the debentures would be regarded as capital, which would mean that it is not incurred in the production of income and for purposes of trade. Such interest of a capital nature would therefore not be regarded as incorne by LPHH, but cannot be deducted as an expense by LPH. No income tax will be payable on the

7.5o/0,

but possibly only

on the L.5% paid in cash every year by LPH to LPHH.

34.82.23

The

L.So/o

interest payable per year in cash by LPH

to LPHH rnay be taxable as income by LPHH and

may be deducted by LPH as an

expense

depending on whether, and for what purposâ‚Ź, the debentu res were issued.

34.8.2.24

lnterest may

in certain circumstances

regarded as capital and not income,

be


110

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 20T8 - Page 66 of 87

66 34.8.2.25

Especially if the debentures are to be converted in shares, it would rnean that the interest paid was

for purposes of obtaining shares and not to bring in any income and therefore the interest would be

of a capital nature. ln that event it would not be taxable as incorne by LPHH.

34.8.2,26

lf the purpose of the transaction is simply to transfer wealth between LPH and LPHH, at least

the

1.5Y0

interest component that is regarded as

income and not as capital, would constitute a transfer of wealth without any causa whatsoever, and may be taxable as incorne. 34.8.2.27

Such transfer of wealth with no real cause in turn

would incur donations tax in terms of section 54 of the lncome Tax Act, Nr 58 of L962. Section 54(1) defines a donation to mean any gratuitous

disposal

of property including any gratu itous

waiver or renunciation of a right. 34.8.2.28

The payment of donations tax on the calculated

transfer

of wealth, at the very least the

difference between the

9o/o

LVo

interest payable on

the debentures and the 8% interest payable on the loan account, would constitute a donation. 34.8.2.29

However, if the whole nature of the transaction

and the changes to be made after 1-5 years is taken into account, the transfer of wealth really constltutes the 7 .\Vo capital interest as well as the 1.5V0

incorne interest on the debentures from LPH

to LPHH, which would contribute to the value of the shares to be created as a result of the conversion of the debentures into shares after

rA d


Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page 67 of 87

111 67

IlVo. Value and wealth will therefore be transferred over a lS-year period resulting into preference shares in LPH.

34.8.2.30

Presumably LPHH will pay income tax on the 1,,5Vo income interest, but no tax will be payable

in respect of the transfer of wealth of the 9o/o interest on the debentures, which are to be converted to shares eventually, especially in the

light of the fact that

7.5o/o

of that interest is to be

regarded as capital and not incorne. 34.8.2 31

Apart from the transfer of wealth referred to above, the transaction also has a tax benefit in the

sense of avoiding paying donations tax on the value of the transfer of wealth in respect of the debentures, in the form of 9% on the value of the

debentures per year, after

7.So/a

interest is also

capitalised every year. 34.8.2.32

Section 54 of the lncome Tax Act provides that, subject to the provisions of section 56, it shall be

paid on the value of any property disposed, whether directly or indirectly, under any donation by any resident.

34.8.2.33

A donation is made indirectly where the cost of donation is born by the ultimate donor and the ultimate donor must suffer a dirninution in his/her estate to the extent of the donation. That exactly the case in this matter.

34.8.2.34

is

ln terrns of section 64 of the lncome Tax Act the rate of donations tzu< chargeable under section 54

in respect of the value of any property disposed of under a donation, shall be

20o/o

of such value.

112

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 20L8 - Page 68 of 87

6B

34 8.2.3s

ln rny view therefore, the transaction has been structured to give effect to a donation, because there was no legal causa in existence for the transfer of the interest on the debentures before the creation of the agreement, and the total of the transfer eventually in the form of interest paid as well as the value added to the shares, into which

the debentures could be converted eventually, constitutes a gratuitous disposal of property by LPH to LPHH.

34,8.2.36

As I have indicated above, only L.So/o of the 90/o interest could possibly attract income tax to be payable by LPHH. That will be much less than the 20o/o

payable on the total amount transferred by

way of interest from LPH to LPHH every year and after 15 years, with

7.5o/o

being capitalised every

year.

34 8.2.37

Therefore, the transaction is a simple donation, if

it is stripped from all its difficult provisions and conditions by LPH to LPHH, spread over 15 years. 34.8.2.38

It is a well-known principle of our law that courts

of law will not be deceived by the form of

a

transaction. They will rend aside the veil in which the transaction is wrapped and examine its true nature and substance.

34.8.2.39

The cornmercial sense of a transaction must be deterrnined narnely its real substance and purpo$e, lf the purpose of a transaction is only to achieve an object that allows for the evasion of tax or of a peremptory law, then it will be regarded as simulated. The mere fact that the parties

perform in terms of the contract does not show that it is not simulated,

34.8.2.40

$uch a simulated transaction will be invalid if it is determined to be in fraudem legis and designed

to avoid certain consequences of the true transaction. lt will be unenforceable, however only if the true nature of the relationship is one that the law forbids.

34.8.2.4L

Whether a particular transaction is simulated, is in each case a question of fact and involves an

examination of the transaction as a whole, including it contexts and any features unusual in relation to the form given to it, and the manner in which the parties intend to perform it. 34,8.2.42

It it is determined that one of the purposes of the

transaction is to avoid paying donations tax in respect of the wealth transfer to occur over a period of 15 years, it will be a transaction that is

intended

to avold tax and a court will in all

probability declare it as void and invalid.

34"8.2.43

A further aspect of concern is the conversion of LPH debentures to LPH preferent shares at the option of LPHH or the holder of the LPH debentures at any tirne after the 15* anniversary of the effective date,

r\\0


Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 20L8 - Page70 of 87

11 70

34.8.2.44

Such LPH preferent shares will have to be issued in terms of section 38 at that ttrne and it will have

to cornply with section 39(2) of the Companies Act with reference to the right of first refusal of each shareholder. The shareholding in LPH may

be completely different at that time than it

is

today. 34.8.2,45

It will also be subject to a special

resolution

required in terms of section 41 when it is issued. 34.8.2.46

At this point in time, there has been no special resolution authorising such conversion by LPH and there has been no decision of the board of directors of LPH to issue such shares at that time, if LPHH or the holder would decide to convert the

debentures into shares.

34.8.2.47

FURTHER GROUNDS FOR INVALIDITY:

Any conversion of the debentures to preference shares after 15 years would have the effect that LPHH would obtain preference shares in LPH, against return for the transfer of wealth from LPH to LPHH every month, 34.8.2.48

There is therefore an enrichment of at least l-70 of

the value of the debentures which may lead to LPHH owning shares in LPH after 15 years. LPH therefore contributes financially to LPHH

obtaining shares in LPH should the debentures be converted eventually,

DEBENTURE AGREEMENT

35.1

On27 May 20L6 a deed of sale of debentures was entered into between Louis Pasteur Holdings (Pty) Ltd (LPH) and LPHH.

35.2

ln terms of that agreement LPHH subscribed for and agreed to purchase 6 000 (six thousand) debentures

of R100 000.00 each at par value thereof in

LPH.

3s3

The LPH debenture shall be unsecured, transferable, cumulative, convertible LPH debentures having a total return of 9Vo, divided into 1.5% income and 7,5o/o

capital growth per annum. The LPH debenture shall be convertible to

LPH preference shares at the option of the holder of the LPH debentures at any time after 15' anniversary of the effective date and shall be unsecured but be transferable and assignable.

35.4

The subscription price is the sum of R600 million for the payment of 6000 debentures of R100 000.00 each and the effective date of the agreement was agreed to be 30 June 2016.

35.5

8o/o

capital growth per annum.

35.6

Section 43 of the Companies Act provides for "debt instruments", which in terms of the old 1973 Act were inter aliareferred to as debentures.

35.7

A debt instrument is defined in section a3(1Xa) as to include any securities other than the shares of a company irrespective of whether or not issued in

terms of a security document such as a trust deed but does not include promissory notes and loans.

35.8

Because the word "debenture" is not defined in the Companies Act, a debenture as defined in the common law may be issued by the company in

addition to a debt instrument and the provisions of section 43 should then apply to such debenture.

359

The meaning of a debenture is imprecise, but it has been interpreted to mean any document however it may be described, and whatever frorn it may take,

which creates or acknowledges indebtedness in the company to another for monies advanced or to be advanced to the company.

35.1"0

A debenture has some aspect and type of loan as elernent or as causator

the debt, and it may be argued that it is not a debt instrument as meant in section 43. lt is, however, argued by academic writers that it does constitute a debt instrument.

35.11

It is also important to note that a debenture can also be a credit agreement in terms of the National Credit Act, Nr 34 of 2005. ln this regard, the company

should be considered as the consumer (borrower). lf the consumer is a juristic person, the National Credit Act does not apply if the asset value or

rftR \'i:

,t


Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated L9 Nov 2018 - Page75 of 87

119 75

turnover of the juristic person is in excess of RL million. Although I have not been provided with information in this regard, there should be no doubt that LPH has an asset value of more than R1 million and also a turnover of more

than Rl million.

35.12

Furthermore the National Credit Act will also not apply to credit agreements

where parties are not dealing at arms-length.

3s.13

A shareholder's loan for instance is a transaction that is not a deal at arms-

length and that is excluded frorn the National Credit

Act. ln my view the

debenture transaction under discussion is also not an arms-length deal, because of inter aliathe similarity of the directors.

35.14

Section 43(2) of the Companies Act provides that the board of a company rnay authorise the companyto issue a secured or unsecured debt instrument

at any time except to the extent provided otherurise by the memorandurn of

incorporation and must determine whether each such debt instrument is secured or unsecured.

35.r"5

Section 43(3) provides that a debt instrument issued by a company may for instance grant special privileges.

35.16

It is therefore clear that the board of directors of a company may authorise

the issue of a debt instrument.

35.17

The following is to be noted in respect of the structure in terrns of the agreement:

$w


120

Annexure C - Business Rescue Plan dated 19 Nov 2018 - Page76 of 87

76 35.1-8

1.5%o

interest on the value of the 600 debentures must be paid out in cash

every year;

35.19

the net effect therefore over a long period of time is a transfer of value per annum from LPH to LPHH:

35 20

LPH on the other hand in respect of the loan account may subordinate the

claim against LPHH to improve the balance sheet of LPHH;

35.21

therefore LPH obtains capital groMh on the loan account and because the loan can be subordinated in LPHH, it would not lead to any insolvency issues or other issues in respect of LPHH;

35.22

the intention is to create a net movement of wealth apparently from LPH to LPHH without it being done in terms of a straight fonruard loan;

35 23

the interest rate on the loan account in respect of the amount owed by LPHH

to LPH is 8olo;

35.24

on the other hand the interest rate on the debentures is

35.25

there is therefore a transfer of wealth from LPH to LPHH in this regard;

35.26

the loan account shall be convertible at the end o{ 15 years to convertible

9026;

debentures in LPHH;

35.27

The whole transaction must therefore be analyzed

[I'{

35.27.0I

the

1.59/o

income interest that is payable on the debentures per

year is paid in cash by LPH to LPHH per year;

35.27.02

the wealth transfer therefore lies in the arnounts in cash paid every year by LPH to LPHH in respect of the debentures;

35 27 03

The BRP is of the view that the agreement is of benefit to LPHH provided that the interest is payable in cash by LPH which will have a po$itive impact on the cashflow of LPHH.

36.

GENERAL DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE BRP'S

36.1

The BRP shall have all those powers as conternplxed in law;

36.2

The BRP shall be entitled to deal with all and any claims not specifically provided for in this Plan in accordance with common law and all applicable statutory provisions.

ACTIONS TAKEN BYTHE BU$INEsS RESCUE PRACTITIONER

36.3. L

When the BRP took control of the Business, the rental with City

Property was

in arrears in the amount of approxirnately

R2 800 000.00, This

has been rectified and the rental has now

been paid up to date.

Various agreernents with the Unions have not previously been finalised and have now been finalised and signed.

36.3.3

At night time the hospital may rnake use of a company called

Allnred to supply the hospital with specialized nursing staff during the night. Their account was in arrears in a $ubstantial

arnount. An urgent arrangement has been concluded with them and they are satisfied with the solution. The nurnber of temporary staff have been reduced substantially from the

previous year (expense approximately R22 000 000) to approxirnately R1B 000 000 for the current year.

36.3.4

The LPHH has for some years not paid VAT and PAYE to SARS

36.3.4.1

ln terms of section

of the cornpany I have

to file a repoft to deal with this aspect and other matters and

I shall deal with the SARS

non-payment in that report.

36.3.5

By L0 November 2018 I would have paid an amount of approxirnately Rg 338 078,09 to SARS in VAT and LBS and will continue to do so.

36.3.6

A moratoriurn was placed on the appointment of staff by previous management. The effect of this was that the account

of Allmed who provides us with nurses, was way out

of

proportion.

Dear All Creditors and Affected Persons of LPHH,

ln the matter of the Flnal Business Bescue Pl,an for Louls Pasteur

Hospltal Holdings (Pqr) Ltd ( "LPHH" ) dated thel9s Nouember2ol8.

We refer to the proposed FinalBusiness Rescue Plan for LPHH published by the Business Rescue Practitioner ("BRP" ) of LPHH ( the "BRP's Plan" ) submitted by

the BRP for approval by creditorc and affected parties of LPHH on the 12th December 2018.

We object to its approva! in its present form for the following reasons:

1

Paragraph 1 .18 needs serious detail and clarification

2

At paragraph 8.3.1 of page 26, the BRP concludes his reasons for the fact that Bonitas is not a related party. This is contradicted by the fact that:

a)

In the Bonitas Medical Fund ("Bonitas" ) audited and approved annual

financial statements for the period ending 31 December 2018 at 95 and 96 of its Report (Note 25 to the financialstatements.), the Board of Trustees and Auditors of Bonitas conclude that LPHH is a related party.

133

Further in paragraph 30 of the Financial Statements of LPHH signed by the BRP on the 12th November 2018 on page 126 of the BRP Plan of 19 November 2018 the BRP himself confirms that Bonitas is a related Party. (See Annexure A )

3

The BRP Plan is not correct as it makes no reference of a counter disclosure of the Related Par$ transaction.

4

In Paragraph 15.1 , at page 30 reference is made to annexure 6 for the liability

to SARS. This is confusing as in annexure 5 and annexure 7 the liability is substantially different. There is no breakdown of how this sum is computed, i.e Income Tax, PAYE, VAT, UIF and other levies managed by SARS.

This issue is further complicated by the fact that no indication is provided regarding the situation of tax liability upon which the BRP's opinion is based, namely that the Sub-lease and ManagementAgreements are invalid. There are

various implications to this. lf correct there will be substantial claw back of income etc. applicable. No mention of such Contingent Claims is found should

the plan be adopted as set out in paragraph 33 and 34.6 on page 53 and page 55.

5

ln Paragraphs 34.8.2.37 and 34.2.8.38, the BRP determines thatthe debenture

is a simple donation but does not state what the financial effect of this will be and how such should be disclosed in the financial records. This opinion has the further effect that donations tax is payable at a rate of 2tr/o which is not

referred to or nor provided in the BRP's Plan if adopted and the extremely negative effect this will have on the SARS liability. The BRP also does not state

what his intentions are to enforce his opinion as the transactions have been concluded and can only be set aside by a Court.

7

ln paragraph 35 and the final assessment of the BRP in paragraph 35.27.03 relating to the Debentures transaction, the BRP finds it beneficial to LPHH. He admits that can bring cash as wellas long term benefits for LPHH, but he regards it as a donation and fails to make any provision

forthe debenture transaction and

the donations tax related to it in the signed financial statements of LPHH. 8

ln Paragraph 36.3.9.1, despite the alleged shortcomings of the previous Hospital Manager, there are yet

no budgets presented, nor reports circulated as

determined and prescribed by Section 132(3) of the Gompanies Act. 9

!n Paragraph 36.3.9.2, the CV of the accountant has not been submitted. The Board has no knowledge of the latte/s skills, qualifications and experience.

10

Paragraph 36.3.11.6 is not reflected in the Annexure 9 (page 148) concerning the cash flow and who will be authorized to acquire such equipment. Further there is

no indication how the capita! expenditure wish list was established and who signed it off. This is relevant as the Clinical Engineer in corroboration with the Specialist medical practitioners is required with the directors'approval.

11

Paragraph 22.4.1 (page 39) refers to the ACT report. lt alleges that there are no

resolutions to the effect of the lease. This is not correct. The resolutions of the Exco of the Board are annexed to the agreement of sub-lease as confirmed in

the BRPs own plan. Further the Board of Director of LPHH had on the 6th May 2016 met and approved the decisions of the Exco of the Board. The Board of Directors also met on the 12th October 2017 to take decisions relating inter alia

to the Agreement of Sub-Lease and Management Agreements. The directors were never asked by ACT Solutions for their input in this regard. The ACT Report was by admission of the author done in haste to meet a deadline set by the BRP.

12

The ACT report contains a material non-disclosure on the fact that LPHH did occupy the premises since 1996 and continued with its operational activities as a

Hospital ostensibly evidencing that al! parties had ratified and agreed to the

continuation of the lease. See Annexure B for further detailed Background information on the origin of the Agreement of Sub-Lease as the basis of an agreed Business Model agreed to by the shareholders of LPHH when they signed the shareholders agreement. 12.1 The argument regarding the sub-lease is questionable. ln paragraph 22.5,

no actual industry standard is advanced for the determination of rental. The only basis is the BRP's opinion which is unsupported.

13

Annexure 1 of the BRP Plan, page 88:

13.1

The report is a draft, undated, incomplete and unsigned.

13.2 Paragraph 3 of the report which is unnumbered states that the directors have not provided a cash flow forecast. The directors were never requested

to provide a cashflow forecast and were unaware of any such action to be completed. Had the request been received it would have been complied with.

13.3

lt is not possible for the directors to compile a cash flow forecast as the Business Rescue Practitioner has not provided the directors with any

management accounts for such an exercise.

13.4

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and

no director is aware of any such action taking place. The preparation was

done by the BRP without reference to the directors.

13.6

Paragraph

5

states that no representations were received from the

directors.

None of the directors was asked or aware that representations were required. The BRP undertook this action solely

at his own behest

without involving the directors.

14

On page 96, annexure 2, the BRP who signed the Directors Responsibili$ report

states that:

14.1 the financial statements have been compiled in terms of IFRS, 14.2 the directors approved the financial statements; and 14.3 the BRP signed on their behalf

15

All of the three statements in point 14 above are factually incorrect and deliberately misleading. Neither the directors met on the

12th November 2018

as a Board, nor were the auditors informed of such a meeting, nor was such a meeting ever held and neither were any representations made by directors per the report in 15.6 above.

15.1

The directors were, in any event, not aware of the fact that financial

statements were presented representations were req

ui

to the auditors and what

red.

15.2

The directors only became aware of the financial statements when

the BRP published his plan.

15.3

The directors report includes the Bonitas directors represented in LPHH, although they did not aftend any such meeting as well. The so-called

signed Directors Responsibility Report is thus not only misleading to the directors of Bonitas and its memberc but also a fiction.

15.4

Paragraph 5 states that the directors have reviewed the cash flow. This

statement is false. The BRP has to date, notwithstanding repeated requests, refused to disclose any information regarding income and expenditure to the

directors.

1

5.5

r

The BRP has, without the director's knowledge and approval, opened

a bank account in the name of his own legal practice where he has sole

discretion

to

dispense the funds. To date, despite repeated

requests, he has refused to disclose any such bank statements and bank reconciliation.

15.6

ln the 6th paragraph of the said report, the BRP states that he was not in control of the companyand cannottake any responsibility fortransactions

passed

in the financial

records. He has passed substantial

transactions which have a substantial and material effect on the interpretation of the financial statements, without any referral to the

directors or notification. lt calls into question his knowledge and objection to the Business Rescue Plan for

and experience of corporate governanoe and understanding of the appropriate accounting standards and conventions.

15.7

He further states that he will sign off the financial statements should the

Creditors approve the BRP plan on the 29th November 2018 but in truth

and in fact signs off the financia! statements of LPHH on the 1lh November 2018. This is misleading.

15.8

The statement thatthe directors approved the financial statements on the 12s November is false. As stated above, the directors did not

meet and were not requested to meet. lt was signed by the BRP

without any

of their

knowledge

or consent. lt is not without

significance that the BRP deposed to a founding affidavit seeking the

removal of some of the directors on the very same day (the 12th November) that he alleges the directors approved the financials, which founding affidavit he signed off on the 13th November.

His nondisclosure of such action and misleading statements in a statutory document warrants investigation and censure.

15.9

The BRP has not informed any director of the claim for medical negligence nor the status of such claim, as per paragraph 4 of the Directors report.

15.10. The entire paragraph regarding going conoern is confusing and cannot be interpreted in a commercially intelligent manner. On the one hand there is doubt as to the continuation of the business as a going concern

yet on the other hand there is a statement that adequate financial resources exist

to

continue without providing details.

This is also

contradicted by the financial statements.

15.11 The cash flow drafted and aftached by the BRP on page 148 is not indicative of this opinion.

15.12

The cash flow on that page does not indicate any provision for the BRP's fees. Neither does it include any interest cost for SARS should no settlement be reached. !n any event, any seftlement wil! include a reduction of the claim, which will include interest to date of settlement and

which will attract interest on the amount settled during payment of the settlement. The cost of such settlement will be substantial and is not included in the Profit and Loss.

15.13 The profit and loss statement on page 149 states it is a comprehensive statement whereas it is only a summary and cannot be interpreted.

15.14. Referring to total revenue, this does not compare with the figures submitted in a letter to the attorneys and is substantially lower for the months of July, August and September 2018. No further information is available, and no assumption is provided as

to how the increased

revenue will be achieved.

15.15 On 31 December 2016, the Accumulated loss was R115 393 720. On 31 December 2018 the assumed starting date

of the BRP plan, the

Accumulated loss is R89 061 256. The implication is that

a profit of

some R35 million was achieved in the 2017 and 2018 financial years with no explanation and for 2019 a profit of R37 million will be made. This is not supported by any facts or assumptions.

15. 16

The BRP promised in his previous meeting with creditors that he would set out all the assumptions etc. of the plan on the budget to put the viability in context. None has been forthcoming to date.

15.17 lt appears

that the "comprehensive" profit and loss and the cash flow

is based on the presumption that the sub{ease is invalid including the management agreement. No impact assessment is done. The plan makes it clear that the opinion of the BRP is that it is invalid although it is

silent on the figures relied upon.

16

these at the appropriate time. All our rights in this regard are strictly reserved. We have set out the more important and salient number of them

to indicate the seriousness of our objections to the adoption of the BRP's Plan.

We trust that the Business Rescue Practitioner will consider his statutory

16.1

Adjourn the meeting set for the approval to a date in the last week of January 2019 or the first week of February 2019;

January 2019 to interact and discuss with the BRP the various conoerns raised above.

Accounting Policies 1.

Presentation of Financial Statements

The linancial statements have been prepared in accordance with lnternational Financial Reporting Standards, and the Companies Act of South Africa. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the Statement of Cash Flows which is prepared on a cash basis and incorporate the principal accounting policies set out below They are presented in South African Rands.

These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.1 Significant

judgements and sources of estimation unceftainty

ln preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimales and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the linancial statements and related disclosures. Use of available information and the application of judgement is inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the financial stalements. Significant judgements include: Loans and receivables The company assesses its loans and receivables for impairment at the end of each reporting period. ln determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in profit or loss, the company makes judgements as to whether there is observable data indicating a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a financial asset.

Allowance for slow moving, damaged and obsolete stock An allowance for stock to write stock down to the lower of cost or nel realisable value. Management have made estimates of the selling price and direct cost to sell on certain inventory items. Fair value estimation The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimaled by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the company for similar financial instruments.

lmpairment testing The recoverable amounts of cash-generating units and individual assets have been determined based on the higher of valuein-use calculations and fair values less costs to sell. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions. lt is reasonably possible that the assumption may change which may then impact our estimations and may then require a material adjustment to the carrying value of tangible assets. The company reviews and tests the carrying value of assets when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped at the lowesl level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of cash flows of other assets and liabilities. lf there are indications that impairment may have occuned, estimates are prepared of expected future cash flows for each group of assets. Expected future cash flows used to determine the value in use of tangible assets are inherently uncertain and could materially change over time. They are significantly affected by a number of factors.

Taxation Judgement is required in determining the provision for income laxes due to the complexity of legislation. There are many transactions and calculalions for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. The company recognises the net future tax benefit related to deferred income tax assets to the extent that it is probable that the deductible temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future. Assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets requires the company to make significant estimates related lo expectations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the company to realise the net deferred tax assets recorded at the end of the reporting period could be impacted. 10

Accounting Pollcies 1.2

Financial instruments

Classification The company classifies financial assets and financial liabilities into the following categories: Loans and receivables Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

. r

Classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were obtained / incurred and takes place at initial recognition. Classification is re-assessed on an annual basis.

lnitial recognition and measurement Financial instruments are recognised initially when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. The company classifies financial instruments, or their component parts, on initial recognition as a linancial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contraclual arrangement. Financial instruments are measured initially at fair value. For financial inslruments which are not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the instrument. S

ubsequent meas urement

Loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amorlised cost, using the effective interest method, less accumulated impairment losses. Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Loans to {from} group companies These include loans to and from holding companies, fellow subsidiaries, subsidiaries,.ioint ventures and associates and are recognised initially at fair value plus direct transaction costs. Loans to group companies are classified as loans and receivables and measured initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost. Loans from group companies are classified as financial liabilities and measured initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost.

Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amorlised cost using the effective interest rate method. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounls are recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The allowance recognised is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition. Trade and other receivables are classified as loans and receivables. Trade and other payables Trade payables are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interesl rate method.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These are initially measured at lair value and subsequently recorded at amortised cost.

Bank overdraft and borrowings Bank overdraffs and borrowings are initially measured al fair value, and are subsequently measured al amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

1.3

Tax

Current tax assets and liabilities Current tax for current and prior periods is, to the extent unpaid, recognised as a liability. lf the amount already paid in respect of current and prior periods exceeds the amount due for those periods, the excess is recognised as an asset. Current tax liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amoun! expected to be paid to (recovered from) the tax authorities, using the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities A deferred lax asset is recognised for the carry forward of unused lax losses to ihe extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilised. Defened tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rales that are expected to apply to the period when the assel is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacled by the end of the reporting period.

Tax expenses Current and deferred taxes are recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from: a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, to other comprehensive income, or a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, directly in equity.

r r

Current tax and deferred laxes are charged or credited to other comprehensive income if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a differenl period, to olher comprehensive Income. Current tax and deferred taxes are charged or credited directly to equity if the tax relates to items that are credited or charged, in the same or a different period, directly in equity.

1.4

Leases

Operating leasea

*

lessee

Accounting Policies 1.5

lnventories

lnventories are measured at the lower of average cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The cost of inventories comprises of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to nel realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, are recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

1.6 lmpairment

of assets

The company assesses at each end of the reporting period whether lhere is any indication that an asset may be impaired. lf any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. lf there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amounl is estimated for the individual asset. lf it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs is determined.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is lhe higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. lf the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss.

An impairment loss of assets carried at cost less any accumulaled depreciation or amortisation is recognised immediately in profit or loss. An impairment loss is recognised for cash-generating units if the recoverable amount of the unit is less lhan the carrying amount of the units. The impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the assets of the unit. An entity assesses al each reporting dale whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised in prior periods for assets that may no longer exist or may have decreased. lf any such indication exists, the recoverable amounts of those assets are estimated.

The increased carrying amount of an asset attributable to a reversal of an impairment loss does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss of assets carried at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortisalion is recognised immediately in profit or loss,

Where some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement shall be recognised when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the entity settles the obligation. The reimbursement shall be treated as a separate asset. The amount recognised for the reimbursement shall not exceed the amounl of the provision. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. lf an entity has a contract that is onerous, the present obligation under the contract shall be recognised and measured as a provisioa. Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised.

New Standards and lnterpretations (continued)

2.2

Standards and interpretations not yet effective

The company has chosen not to early adopt the following standards and interpretations, which have been published and are mandatory for the company's accounting periods beginning on or afler 1 January 2015 or later periods: IFRS 7 Financial lnstruments: Disclosures

Annual lmprovements 2O12-2014 Cycle: Amendment clariling under what circumstances an entity will have continuing involvement in a transferred financial asset as a result of servicing contracts. Annual lmprovements 2012-2014 Cycle: Amendment clariffing the applicability of previous amendments to IFRS 7 issued in December 2011 with regard to offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities in relation to interim financial statements prepared under IAS 34.

The effective date of the standard is for years begining on or affer 01 January 2016. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impacl on the company's financial statements. IFRS 9 Financial lnstruments A finalised version of IFRS t has been issued which replaces IAS 39 Financial lnstruments: Recognition and Measurement. The completed standard comprises guidance on Classification and Measurement, lmpairment Hedge Accounting and Derecognition:

.

IFRS 9 introduces a new approach to the classification of linancialassets, which is driven by the business modelin which the asset is held and their cash flow characteristics. A new business model was introduced which does allow certain financial assets to be categorised as "fair value through olher comprehensive income" in certain circumstances. The requirements for financial liabilities are mostly carried forward unchanged from IAS 39. However, some changes were made to the fair value option for financial liabilities to address the issue of own credit risk.

.

The new model inlroduces a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments, as well as an "expected credit loss" model for the measurement of financial assets.

.

IFRS 9 contains a new model for hedge accounting that aligns the accounting treatment with the risk management activities of an entity, in addition enhanced disclosures will provide better lnformation about risk management and the effect of hedge accounting on the financial statements.

.

IFRS 9 carriers forward the derecognition requirements of financial assets and liabilities from IAS 39.

The effective date of the standard is for years begining on or afier 01 January 2018 It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the company's financial statements.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial $taternents llnvestment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception: Narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 introduce clarifications to the requirements when accounting for investmenl entities. The amendments also provide relief in particular circumstances, which will reduce the costs of applying the Standards. The effective date of the standard is for years begining on or after 01 January 2016. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the company's financial slatements.

IFRS 12 Disclosure of lnterests in Other Entities lnvestment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception: Narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 introduce clarifications to the requirements when accounting for investment entities. The amendments also provide relief in particular circumstances, which will reduce the costs of applying the Standards. 17

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts from Customers

.

The new standard will also resull in enhanced disclosures about revenu, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively and improve guidance for mulliple-element arrangements.

.

The new standard supersedes:

(a) IAS 11 Contruction Contracts; (b) IAS 18 Revenue; (c) IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes;

(d) IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate; (e) IFRIC 18 Tranfers of Assets from Cuslomers; and (0 SIC-31 Revenue-Barter Transactions lnvolving Advertising Services.

forward the derecognition requirements of financial assets and liabilities from IAS 39.

The effective date of the standard is for years begining on or after 01 January 2017. It is unlikely that the slandard will have a material impact on the company's financial statements.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure lnitiative: Amendments designed to encourage entities to apply professional judgement in determining what information to disclose in their financial statemenls. For example, the amendments make clear that materiallty applies to the whole of flnancial statements and that the inclusion of immaterial information can inhibit the usefulness of linancial disclosures. Furthermore, the amendments clarify that entities should use professional judgement in determining where and in what order information is presented in the financial disclosures. The effective date of the standard is for years begining on or after 01 January 2016. It is unlikely lhat the standard will have a material impact on the company's financial statements.

Risk management

Capital risk management The company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholder and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

Financial risk management The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The company's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the company's financial performance. Risk management is carried out under policies approved by the board of directors. The director provides principles for overall risk managemenl, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as interest rate risk, credit risk and investment of excess liguidity.

Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. The company's risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available to cover future commitments. The company manages liquidity risk through an ongoing review of future commitments and credit facilities. Cash flow forecasls are prepared and adequate utilised borrowing facilities are monitored. The table below analyses the company's financial liabilities inlo relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the slatemenl of financial position to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual cash flows.

lnterest rate risk The company's interest rate risk arises from loans to group companies, cash and cash equivalents and borrowings. Loans issued at variable rates expose the group to cash flow interest rate risk. Loans issued at fixed rates expose the company to fair value interest rate risk.

At 31 December 2014, if interest rates on Rand-denominated borrowings had been 1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been R 87,319 (2013: R15,724) lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings. Deposits and cash balances attract interest at a rate that varies with prime. The company policy is to manage interest rate risk so the fluctuations in variable rates do not have material impacl on profit and loss.

Credit risk Credit risk is managed on a company basis. Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits, cash equivalents, and loans and trade debtors. The company only deposits cash with major banks with high quality credit standing and limits exposure to any one counter-party.

Trade receivables comprise a widespread customer base. Management evaluated credit risk relating to customers on an ongoing basis. lf customers are independently rated, these ratings are used, Otherwise, if there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. lndividual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the board. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Financial assets exposed to credit risk at year end were as follows:

SUBJECT

FESTIVE SEASON MESSAGE BY HOSPITAL MANANGEMENT AND BUSINESS RESCUE PRACTITIONERS

The festive season is almost upon us again, and it is time to be Merry in the company of loved ones and friend. An entire year has come and gone, and it seems as if it was oniy a short while ago that the festive season of 2017 had been with us. As we prepare to unwind, relax and celebrate, it is important to pause for a moment and reflect on the year that has passed. This moment of reflection will help us gauge how far we have come and what still needs to be done in order to accomplish the objectives we had set for 2019. To face the future with confidence, we need to draw from lessons of the past. For Louis Pasteur private Hospital, 2018 has been an eventfulyear, and also one that produced some daunting moments-from which we have learnt, acted and had been praised for our quick response. I refer in particular to the theatre equipment and many other challenges that needed our attention, our relationship with the customer lurched from excellent to challenging, but we have happily overcome this and have various projects that will remove supply bottlenecks.

ln recent weeks we also experienced interference in the hospital operations by hospital directors, which created uncertainty in staff members and clients, however on the 4h of December the Business Rescue Practitioners managed to secure a court order that prevent directors from interfering with hospital management and business operations.

Stratesic Support The hospital has partnered with a new Pharmacy that will be situated on the ground floor opposite Badehnhorst , which will be responsible for supplying medication to the hospital. this will ensure that the curent disruption of medical supply is completely eradicated.

We also partnered with various departments as part of our organizational growth, which includes; Road Accident Fund, CPIS, National Defense Force, Botswana government, Angola Government, Mamelodi Sundowns football team and All medical aids to mention the few.

RUBICON

We refer to your recent letter dated 12 December 2018 as well as your previous letters of 10 December 2018 and 25 October 2018.

2

After a full investigation of the relationship benrueen Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd (LPHH) and your client Rubicon, I came to the conclusion

that there was no business agreement or contractual relationship between LPHH and Rubicon for purposes of pharmacy related services, nor was there

any lease agreement between LPHH and Rubicon for purposes of the premises occupied by Rubicon.

I also

185

determined that LPHH paid most, if not all, of the expenses of Rubicon,

including salaries of employees and payments for purchases on a retail basis. All the discounts on wholesale purchases were also given to Rubicon. On the other hand, Rubicon did not share any profits with LPHH, nor did it

make any payments to LPHH for these benefits. 4.

I

came to the conclusion that the arrangement is not in the best interests of

LPHH and I therefore determined to end the relationship during October

20L8. LPHH therefore terminated all the above payments from effect of 1 November 20t8.

5.

As a result, thereof, Rubicon attempted to suspend its only pharmacist registered with the Pharmacy Board Mrs Alta van Rensburg, with reference to Rubicon's pharmacy licence.

6.

She took the view that this constituted constructive dismissal and reported her dismissalto the Pharmacy Board.

7

The effect thereof is that Rubicon does not currently have in its employ a registered pharmacist and it cannot therefore dispense medicine under its licence. lnsofar as it is doing so, it is doing so illegally and unlawfully.

B

LPHH also cannot therefore conduct any business with Rubicon under these

circumstances. 9.

On 25 October 2018 you wrote a letter to me on behalf of Rubicon claiming certain payments and stating the following: "Future supply of medication and equipment to LPHH is hereby suspended

with immediate effect until the amount of R6 622 75t.0O in respect of post

(\t

(I)

business rescue obligations has been paid."

As a result, thereof, writer had no other alternative but to make the necessary

plans to source medication and equipment somewhere else. Writer has done so and your client has no basis or grounds for complaining in respect thereof.

11.

Your client's actions in this regard put the lives and the health of patients in danger and prejudiced the business operations of LPHH and the hospital.

12.

Writer answered your letter in terms of a letter dated 26 October 2018, which I

annex hereto, in which I denied the allegations of the amounts claimed by

Rubicon, and wherein it was recorded that by agreement between your Mr Dingaan and myself, LPHH would not pay any further salaries to the staff of Rubicon, and that as from November 2018 Rubicon would pay its own staff.

13.

Further requests to meet with your client and/or yourselves to negotiate a satisfactory resolution to the situation fell on deaf ears and were ignored.

L4.

Writer has rejected as business rescue practitioner the claim of R4 783 620.00, as there are no supporting documents for this claim.

L5.

The amount of R9 A22 764.00 has been recognised by myself and it will be included in the business rescue plan. ldenythatthe amount of R6 622751,.00 is outstanding. Writer has access to the books of account of Rubicon and there is simply no basis for this claim.

16

Furthermore, your client has refused to provide any supporting documents for this claim.

17

Writer has also suggested that an independent auditor should be appointed by the parties to do a reconciliation and investigation of these claims. This

cno

was refused by your client.

Your client owes SARS approximately R1 million and any amount that LPHH

would pay into the bank accounts of Rubicon, is in danger of being attached by SARS. LPHH is therefore simply not in a position to do anyfurther business

with your client and is in law not obliged to do so. 19

Mrs Alta Janse van Rensburg, the pharmacist, has now been employed by LPHH, LPHH is currently sourcing its medical supplies and equipment from designated suppliers who are supplying LPHH and who are invoicing LPHH directly.

20.

On 10 December 2018 you wrote a letter claiming the abovementioned amounts to which I have answered above, as well as an amount on loan account of R233 280 000.00.

21,.

I deny the allegation that the alleged amount of R233 280 000.00 exists on loan account with LPHH in favour of your client. There is simpty no basis for

such a claim and no basis, grounds or supporting documents have been provided to me substantiating such a claim. 22

I have also rejected this claim and the reasons for rejection of the claim are

set out in the business rescue plan. 23.

On 10 December2018 an email was sent by your client indicating that Rubicon Pharmacy have been instructed by its directors to temporarily discontinue all the admin support it provides to the hospital with immediate effect. lt included processing of credits on payment accounts, capturing of invoices and verifying prices, maintaining the price file, all audit queries and ordering and issuing of theatre stock. The email stated that it will continue therewith until proof of payment is received.

I

thereafter wrote a letter on

lL

188

December 2018 to yourselves indicating that

insofar as any agreement may have existed between LPHH and Rubicon,

which is denied. this constituted a repudiation of any such possible agreement, which I accepted and therefore I cancelled any possible agreement that may have existed between LPHH and your client, Rubicon. 25.

I have now received a letter dated 12 December

2018 from yourselves

alleging that I am trying to maliciously harm Rubicon's business, which is not

true and incorrect. LPHH has no agreement with Rubicon and cannot be forced to do business with Rubicon, lt is in fact Rubicon that has refused to do further business with LPHH. 26.

It is further alleged that suspension of the shared services is done with the intention of diverging business from Rubicon to a proposed new pharmacy. This allegation is ludicrous, as I have shown above, it is your client that has suspended its servicesto LPHH, which has caused me to take the necessary emergency measures to protect the hospital and its patients.

27

As I have mentioned Alta Janse van Rensburg has been constructively dismissed by yourselves and she is currently in the ernploy of LPHH. LPHH is entitled to purchase medical supplies from any medical supplier and is not

bound to do business with Rubicon.

28.

Your client required certain undertakings, which I will not provide.

2S.

I have no

obligation to make any payments as requested and I have diverted

no medical supplies from Rubicon. Mrs Alta van Rensburg is now working for LPHH. There is no question of a new pharmacy being created by LPHH. LPHH is simply taking emergency measures to maintain its required supply

of medical supplies and equipment, which it is entitled to do.

You threaten with an urgent court application. Firstly, the sequence of the correspondence and events that happened as set out above, clearly illustrate

that no application can or will be regarded by any court as urgent, that your client may wish to bring. 3L.

Secondly, LPHH has no binding agreement in terms of which it has to conduct business with your client, There is no amount that LPHH has to pay to your client at this point in time, and payment of any alleged outstanding amount, can never be dealt with on an urgent application basis.

32.

Your client is further occupying premises to which it is not entitled at all as it

has no lease agreement with LPHH or for that matter anyone else. lt is therefore unlawfully in the premises it currently occupies. 33

It was your client itself that suspended all services and decided to discontinue services to LPHH, and therefore no courtwill entertain any urgent application or your clients behalf contrary to your clienfs own actions.

34.

A court would regard the actions of your client as having created its own urgency and having been the cause of its own problems. There is therefore clearly no basis for any urgent application and there is also no legal basis for any relief that your client may wish to seek against LPHH and/or myself.

35.

I have now properly and in detail set out the position of LPHH and myself, and this letter will be disclosed to the urgent court, should your client nevertheless want to bring an urgent application. ln such an event, I will not

only seek an attorney and client costs order against your client, but also a cost order de bonis propriis against yourself, on the basis that any urgent application will be totally irresponsible, malicious and vexatious under the circurnstances.

We re-iterate our instruc{ons set out in our letters dated 7 December 2018 in which we brought the following to your attention: 2.1.Your recent communication to the effect that the hospital has partnered with a new pharmacy to be set up is a clear indication to Rubicon Group Proprietary Limited ("Rubicon") of your continued efforts to maliciously harm its business; and 2.2. Your refusal to make payments of the amounts owing, suspension of the shared services and continued interference in the management of Rubicon is done with the intention of diverting business from Rubicon to the proposed new pharmacy;

Dear All

Please take note Alta has been suspended from Rubicon Group Pty ltd (The Hospital Pharmary) on the 7th of December.. Marina is also no longer an employee of Rubicon and UPD should not be taking any unlawful instructions from either of them regardimg the cunent pharmacy account. They are not authorised to place orders using this account as well. I am very upset as to how a big company as yourself will change the name on an invoice without ffg proper procedures..

legal team and necessary action will be taken against guitly and lunawful parties. Enjoy your weekend. Yaseera Amod Pharmacy Admin Manager

The pdncipal accounting policies appllsd in the preparation of lhese annual financial statemenb aro set out below'

1,1

Bacls of preparatlon

ThE annual fnancial statements have been prepared on the going concem basis in accordance wifi, and in compllanoe with, lntemational Financiat Reporting Standards (IFRS') and Intemational Flnancial Reporting lnterpretations Committee flfRlC') interpretations issued and effecthe at the time of preparing these annual financial statâ‚ŹmenB and ths , and 0te Companies Act of Souflr Africa of South Africa, as amended.

The annua!financial stataments have been prcpared on the historicalcost basis, unless othenvise stratd in the accounting policies which bllor and inoorponatathe priircipal acoounting policies set out below. They are presented in Rands, which is the company's fu nc{ional cunency. These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period. 'l

.2

Signllicant JudgemenE and aources of estlmaton uneertalnty

The preparation of annual financial statomenb in conformity with lfRS requires management from time to time, to make iudgim6nts, estirnates and assumptions that affect the applicalion of policies and rcported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. These estimates and associated assumplions ane based on experience and various other fa6:tors that are believed to be reasonable under thE circumstances. Acttral results may difier trom these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions ara revierrnd on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any trtura periods affuded. CrlUcal ludgementa ln applylng accountlng pollcler Tha critical iudgements made by management in applying accounting policios, apartfttm those invoMngestimations, that have he m6st iignifcant elfect on the amounts recognised in thE financial etalements, are ouUined as follows:

Falrvalue estmation The fair value of financial instruments traded in aclive markeb (such as trading and availabl+.fur-sale securites) is based on quoted martet pricas at the end of lfie reporting pedod. The quoted market prie used br financial assets heH by the company is the current bid Pdce. The fair value of financial instruments that are not baded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The company uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are basad on ma*et conditions existing attre end of each reportn! period. Quotdd market prices or deabr quotes br sirnilar instruments are used for longterm debt' Oher techniques, srjdt as-eitimated discounted calsh florrs, are used to debrmine fair value br the remaining financial instrumentE. The fair valua of fonnrard foreign exchange aontrac.ts is determined using quobd fonrard exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivaHes and payables arc assumed to approximate lhelr fair values. The hir valie of finansial liabitiUes for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounling the future contractual cash frows at the cunent market interest rate that is arrailable to tre company fur similar financial inslrumenb.

lmpalmenttesting The recoverable amounb of cashgenerating unib and individual aesets harre been determined based on the higher of. value-in+rse calculations and falr ialue less-cose !o sell. Theso calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions. lt is rEasonably possible thatthe assumption may c*range wlrich may then impad our estimations and may then rEquirc a material adjustment to the carrying value. The company rEviews and tests the carrying value of assek when ewnb or changes in circumstances suggest &at the carrying imount may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped at the lowest lerrel forwhich identifiabla cash ffowe are largely inAepenOEnt of cash ilows of othEr assets and liabili[es. lf thare are indications that impalrment may have occunad, estimateg are irepared of expecled futura cash flows for aach group of assets. Expected future cash fows used to determine tha value in use'of tangibte assets are inherently uncertain and could materially change over lime. They are significanfly af{ected by a number of factors.

Useful llves and rcoldual valuet The useful lirres and residual values of property, plant and equipment as well as the useful lives of the intangibles are reviewed at eadr reporting date, The useful lives are estimated by management, baced on historic analysis and other available informatioir. The residual values are estimated based on useful lives as wEll as other availabh information.,

Provlclont and conUngent liabllltlec Various estimaps and assumptions havâ‚Ź been applied by management in ariving at the carrying mlue of provisions that are recognised in terms of the relevant accounting policy. Management further relies on input frorn the comparyrs hwyers is assesslng the probability of items of a contingent nature.

Loant and rccelvables The company assesses its toans and recoivables for impairment at the end of eadl reporting period. ln determinlng whether an impairment liss should be recorded in profit or loss, the company makes judgemen! as to whether there ls observable data indicating a measurable decrease in the astimabd future cash flows ftom a financial asset. The impairment for loans and receivables is calculabd on a portfolio basis, based on hlstorical loss ratios and other indicators present at the reporting date that conelate with defaulb on the portfolio.

Taxation Judgement is required in determining the proMsion for income taxes due to the complexity of leg_lslation. There arB many traniactions and calculations for whiih the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary courss of business. The company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on eslimatee of whather additional taxes will be due'

Whire tlre nnal tax outcome of these matters is difierenl kom the amounts that were initially recorded. such differences will impact the income tax and debned tax provisions in the period in whicft such determination is made.

The company recognises the net future tax benefit related to dehened income tax assets to the extent that it is probable that the deductibb temporary diffurences will re\rerse in the breseeable future. Assessing the reooverability of de{ened income tax asseb requires thd company to mak6 signifcant estirnatss related to expeclations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flols lrom operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the exlent that future cash fons and taxable incorng differsignificanily ftom estimates, the ability of the company lo realise the net defened tax assets recorded at the end of the reporting period could ba impaded.

Standards and lnterprctatlons not yet effective

IAS

'12

Uncedalnty ovar lncome Tax Treahents

The interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and mEasurement requirements in IAS 12 when there ls uncertainty over income ta< Eeatments. Specificaliy, if it is probable that fte tax authoritias will accept the uncertain tax treatment, then all tax related items are measured according to tha planned tax trEatnEnl lf it is not probable that the tax audrorities will accept the uncertsin tax treatnen( then the tax related items are measurcd on the basis of pmbabilities to refed he uncertainty' Changes in fac{s and circumstances are requircd to bs Seatâ‚Źd as changes in estimatss and applied prospeciivaly. Tha efiec{ive date of the interpretatlon is for years beginning on or after 01 January 20'19. The company expects to adopt tha interpretation for the first time in the 2019 annual financial statements. It is unliltely trat the interpretation will have a material impact on the oompant's annual financial staternents.

IFRS 16 Lsases IFRS 16 Leases is a new standard whicfi replaces IAS 17 Leases, and inEoduees a single lessee accounting model. The main changes adsing from the issue of IFRS 16 wfrich are likely to impacil the comPany are as tullops: Company as lessee:

. .

. . . . .

Lessees are required to recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability br all leases, except short term leases or leases whero the underlying isset hasa lo,v value, whiuh are expensed on a straight line or other systematic basis. The cost of the right+f-use asset includes, whers appropdate, the initial amount of ltra lease liability; lease payrnenb made friorto commen@ment of the lease less incentives reejved: initial direct costs of the lessee: and an-estimate for any provision for dismanding, restoration and removal related to the underlying asset. The leaso liab:lity takes into consideration, where appropriate, fixed and variable lease payments; residualvalue guarantees to be made by the lessee: exercise price of purchase options; and payments of penalties br terminating

the lease. The right-of-use asset is subsequenfiy moasured on the cost model at cost less accumulated depreciation and impaiinent and adJusted for any re{leasurement of the lease liability. However, right-of-use assets are rneasured at iair value wten they meet the definition of investnent property and all other inveshent property is accounted fur on the fair value model. lf a right of-use asset relates to a dass of properU, plant and equiprnent which is measured on the revaluatisn model. then thal right-of-use asset may be measured on the revaluation model. The lease tiability is subsequently increasad by interest reduced by lease payments and re-measured br reassessments or rnodifications. Re-measurements of lease liabilities are affeded against right+f-use assets, unless lhe assets have been reduced to nil, in which case further adiustments are recognised in profit or loss. The lease liability is re.measured by discounting ravised payments at a revlsed rate when there is a change in the leaso term or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the undarlying assEt. 22

2.

New Stendarde and lntetpretations (confaued) The lease liability is rs'measured by discounting revisad lease payments at the originaldiscount rate when there is a change in the amounts expected to be paid in a residual value guarantee or when there is a drange in ftrture paymenB because of a change in indax or rate usEd b detormine those payments. Certain lease modifications are accounted for as separate lEases. When leaso modifications which decrcase the scope of the lease arc not required to be accounted for as separate lease$, then the lessee re-measures the lease lhbility by deaeasing the carrying amount of the right of lease asset to refiec1 lhe tull or partial termination of the lease. Any gain or loss rehting to the full or partial termination of the lease is recognised in proit or loss, For all othEr lease modifications whidr arc not required to be accounted fur as separde leases, the lessae re-measurss the lease liability by making a conesponding adjustnent io the dghtof-use assst Right-of-use assets and leasa liabilities should bE presented separately from other aesets and liabilities. lf not, then the line item in whlch they are induded must be disdosed. Thls does not apply to right-of-use asseb meeting tha defnition of investrent property which must bs presented within investnent property. IFRS 10 contains different disdosure requiremenb compamd to IAS 17leases.

The Efiective date of the standard is for years beglnning on or after

The company epects to adopt the standard for the firet time in the 2019 annual financialstatamenb. The company is unable to reliably estimate the impact of the standard on the annua!financial statements.

IFRS

I issued in November 2009 introduced new requiremenb for the classification and measurements of financial a$ets. I was subsequenty amended in Oclober 2010 to includa requiremenls fior the classification and measurament of

fnancial liabilities and br derecognition, and in November 2013 to include lhe new requiremenb for general hedge accounting. Another revised version of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014 mainly to include a)impairment requirements for financial assets and b) limited emendments to the classification and measurement requlrements by intsoducing a "fair value through other comprehensive incomen (FVTOCI) measurement caEgory for cErtain simple debt instumenb. Key equirements of IFRS 9: All recognised financial assels that are within he scope of !A$ 39 Financial lnsturnents: Recogn'rtion and Measurement are required to be subsequenty measured at amortlsed cost or fiair value. Spacificalty, debt inrrestnents that are held wlthin a business model whose oblec,tive is to collsct the contactual cash flows, and that have contradual cash flows that are solaly payments of principal and interest on the outstanding pdncipal are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent reporting periods. Debt inslrumenb that are held within a business modelwhoso objective is achieved by both collecting confractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms ofthe financial assst give rise on specifed dates to cash iows that are solely payments of principal and interest on oubtanding principal, are measured at FVTOCI. Allother debt ard equi$ investmenb ale measured at fair value at he end of subsequent reporting pefiods. ln addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable electisn to present subsequent changes in the fair value ol an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income with only dividend incoma ganerally remgnised in profit or loss. With regard to the measurement of finandal liabilities designated as at fair value thmugh profit or loss, IFRS requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attibutable to cianges in the credit risk of the liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of lhe effuc{ of the changes of the liability's credit risk ln other comprehensive income would creatâ‚Ź or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the dtange in fair value of a financial liability designated as at fair value through profit or loss is presented in profil or loss.

ln relation to he impairmont of financial assets. IFRS I requires an expeded credit loss model, as opposed to an incuned cradit loss modet under IAS 39. The expected credit loss model requires an enlity to account for expected credit lossos and changes in those etpected credit losses d each reporting date to reflec-t changes in credit risk sinoe initial recognition, lt is thErefore no longer neoessary ior a oedit event to have occuned before credit los$es are recognised. The new general hedge accounting requirements ratain the three $pes of hadge accounting mechanisrns flryenUy available in IAS 39. Under IFRS 9, greater f,exibility has been introduced to the type$ of hansaclionu eligible for hedge accountng, specifically broadening lhe types of instrumenb that qualify for hedging instrumenb andthe typel of dsk comlonents of non-financial ltems that are eligible for hedge accounfing. ln addition, he efiectiveness 63t tras been replacod wi0r the principal of afi "economic relationship". Retrospective assessmsnt of hedge efiec{iveness is also no longer reguired. Enhanced dlsclosure requirements about an entity's risk management activities have also been intoduoed.

The efiective date of the standard is for years beginning on or afrer 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the etandard for the ftrst time in the 201E annual ftnancial statements, The company is unable to reliabty estimate the lmpac't of the standard on frie annual financial statemenb.

Amendments to IAS t2: Recognltlon of Deiprmd Tax Assetr for Unroallsed Los$cs ln terms of IAS 12 tncorne Taxes, debned tax asseb are recognised only when it is probable that taxable profib will be available against which the deduc.tible temporary difrrenes can be utitised. The folloring amendments harre been made, which may harre an impact on the company:

ipe, a dedudlble temporary difierene is assessed in combination only with other deductibte temporary difrrences of the appropriata type.

lf tax law restricts tha utilisation of losses to deductions against income of a specific

Addilional guidetines were prescribed for evaluating whether the cortpany will have sufficient taxable profit in future periods. The company is required to compara the daduciible tBtnporary differences with fttture taxable profit that excludes tax deduclioirs risultin6 from the reversal of those deductible temporary diftrences. This comparison shows he extent to which the ftrtura taxabb plofit is sufficient forthe entity to deduct ttre amounls resulting from the reversal of those deductible tomporary difierences. The amendment also provides that the estimate of probable trUre taxable pmfit may indude the recovery of some of an entity's assets for mora than their carrylng amount if Orcre io sufficient evidence that it is probable fiat the entity will achieve this. The efiective date of lhe amendment is for years bEginning on or after 01 January 2017. The company expect to adopt the amendment for thE first tim6 in the 2017 annual financial statements. !t is unlikely that the amendment will have a material lmpad on the compant's annual financial stiatements.

The company has secured direct overdraft faciliUes which have been reducsd to R4 500 000 with Nedbank. These facilities are secured by a cession by the Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd, any and all ib rights in and to its debtors and of unlimited Suretyships and Guarantees from Louis Pasleur Medical lnvestnents Umited and Louis Pastaur lnvâ‚Źstsnents Limited. Securities include amounts of R10 000 000 tom Dr M Adam and R15 000 000 from First Clinic Properties One Limited.

Credlt quallty of cash at bank and short term deposlts, excludlng cath on hand The credit quality of cash at bank and short tenn deposits, excluding cash on hand that are neither past due nor impaircd can be assessed by rebrance to historical information about counterparty default rates, None of the financial institutions with whlch bank balances are held defaulted in prior periods and as e result a credit rating of high are ascribed to the financial institutions. The company's maximum exposure to credit risk as a result of the bank balances hekl is limited to the carrying value of thase balances as detailed above. All bank balances are held with two banking institutions increasing the related concentration risk. However, to mitigate he risk of loss, the company only transacts wlh highly reputable fnancial instiMions.

Falr value of cash and cash equlvalents The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.

The directors acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the company and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment.

These controls are monitored throughout the company and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the company's business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the company is on identiffing, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the company.

To the directors of Louis Pasteur Hospita! Holdings (Pty) Ltd

Opinion

We have audited the annual financial statements of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd set out on pages 9 to 40, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the annual financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

ln our opinion, the annual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd as at 31 December 20'17, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with lnternational Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 71 of 2O08.

Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with lnternational Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the annual financial statements section of our report.

We are independent of the company in accordance with the lndependent Regulatory Board for Auditors Code of Professional Conduct for Registered Auditors (IRBA Code) and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of annual financial statements in South Africa. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IRBA Code and in accordance with other ethical requirements applicable to performing audits in South Africa. The IRBA

Code is consistent with the lnternational Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code

of

Ethics for Professional

Accountants (Parts A and B). We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of mafter We draw attention to Note x to the annual financial statements which indicates that [insert detail]. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

ndependent Auditor's Report

Responsibilities of the directors for the Annual Financial Statements The directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the annual financial statements in accordance with lnternational Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 71 of 2008, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of annual financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. ln preparing the annual financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as

a going concern,

disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going conoern basis of

accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Annual Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audito/s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with lnternational Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these annual financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with lnternational Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: ldentiff and assess the risks of material misstatement of the annual financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast

.

.

. .

significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as

.

a going concern. lf we conclude that a

material

uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the annual financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our audito/s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the annual financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the annual financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Accounting Policies 1.

Significantaccountingpolicies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these annual financial statements are set out below

1.1

Basis of preparation

The annual financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis in accordance with, and in compliance with, lnternational Financial Reporting Standards ("lFRS') and lnternational Financial Reporting lnterpretations Committee ('lFRIC) interpretations issued and effective at the time of preparing these annual financial statements and the Companies Act 71 of 2008 of South Africa, as amended. These annual financial statements comply with the requirements of the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and the Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council.

The annual financial statements have been prepared on the historic cost convention, unless othenrise stated in the accounting policies which follow and incorporate the principal accounting policies set out below. They are presented in Rands, which is the company's functional currency. These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.2 Significant

judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of annual financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management, from time to time, to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, based on experience and various other factors that may differ from these estimates. The estimates and to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in

income and expenses. These estimates and associated

are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis which the estimates are revised and in any future periods

Critical judgements in applying accounting The critical judgements made by management

in

have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised

1.3

the

policies, apart from those involving estimations, that statements, are outlined as follows

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are tangible assets which the mmpany holds for its own use or for rental to others and which are expected to be used for more than one year.

An item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company, and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Property, plant and equipment is initially measured at cost. Cost includes all of the expenditure which is directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset, including the capitalisation of borrowing costs on qualifying assets and adjustments in respect of hedge accounting, where appropriate.

The initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing an item and restoring the site on which it is located is also included in the cost of property, plant and equipment, where the company is obligated to incur such expenditure, and where the obligation arises as a result of acquiring the asset or using it for purposes other than the production of inventories. Expenditure incurred subsequently for major services, additions to or replacements of parts of property, plant and equipment are capitalised if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company and the cost can be measured reliably. Day to day servicing costs are included in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred. Major inspection costs which are a condition of continuing use of an item of property, plant and equipment and which meet the recognition criteria are included as a replacement in the cost of the item of property, plant and equipment. Any remaining inspection costs from the previous inspection are derecognised. Major spare parts and stand by equipment which are expected to be used for more than one year are included in property, plant and equipment.

Accounting Policies 1.3 Propefi, plant and equipment

(continued)

Depreciation of an asset commences when the asset is available for use as intended by management. Depreciation is charged to write off the assets carrying amount over its estimated useful life to its estimated residual value, using a method that best reflects the pattern in which the asset's economic benefits are consumed by the company. Leased assets are depreciated in a consistent manner over the shorter of their expected useful lives and the lease term. Depreciation is not charged to an asset if its estimated residual value exceeds or is equal to its carrying amount. Depreciation of an asset ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale or derecognised. The useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment have been assessed as follows: Item

Average useful life 6 - 15 years 6 - 10 years 5 years 5 years 3 - 7 years period of lease 4 years

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method of each asset are reviewed at the end of each reporting year. lf the expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a co^$hat is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated

separately.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its continued use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant and equipment, determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, is included in profit or loss when the item is derecognised.

1.4

lntangible assets

An intangible asset is recognised when: it is probable that the expec{ed future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

. .

lntangible assets are initially recognised at cost. Expenditure on research (or on the research phase of an internal project) is recognised as an expense when it is incurred.

lntangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets are reviewed every period-end. Reassessing the useful life of an intangible asset with a finite useful life after it was classified as indefinite is an indicator that the asset may be impaired. As a result the asset is tested for impairment and the remaining carrying amount is amortised over its useful life. Amortisation is provided to write down the intangible assets, on a straight line basis, to their residual values as follows: Item

Financial instruments

Classification The company classifies financial assets and financial liabilities into the following categories: Loans and receivables Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

. .

Classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were obtained / incurred and takes place at initial recognition. Classification is re-assessed on an annual basis, except for derivatives and financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss, which shall not be classified out of the fair value through profit or loss category.

lnitial recognition and measurement Financial instruments are recognised initially when the company becomes

a

party to the contractual provisions of the

instruments.

The company classifies financial instruments, or their component parts, on initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.

Financial instruments (continued)

Loans to (from) group companies These include loans to and from holding companies, fellow subsidiaries, subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates and are recognised initially at fair value plus direct transaction costs. Loans to group companies are classified as loans and receivables. Loans from group companies are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortised cost.

Loans to shareholderc, directors, managers and employees These financial assets are classified as loans and receivables.

Trade and other receivables Trade receivables are measured at initial recognition at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default or delinquency in payments (more than 30 days overdue) are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The allowance recognised is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of in profit or loss within operating expenses. When a trade account for trade receivables. Subsequent recoveries of in profit or loss.

Trade and other receivables are classified as loans Trade and other payables

Trade payables are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These are initially and subsequently recorded at fair value. Bank overdraft and borrowings Bank overdrafts and borrowings are initially measured at fair value, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using

the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the settlement or redemption of borrowings is recognised over the term of the borrowings in accordance with the company's accounting policy for borrowing costs.

Accounting Policies 1.7 Tax Current tax assets and liabilities Current tax for current and prior periods is, to the extent unpaid, recognised as a liability. lf the amount already paid in respect of current and prior periods exceeds the amount due for those periods, the excess is recognised as an asset. Current tax liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the tax authorities, using the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities

A deferred tax liability is recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except to the extent that the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). A deferred tax asset is recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the elftent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. A deferred tax asset is not recognised when it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).

A deferred tax asset is recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused STC credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused STC credits can be utilised.

The cost of inventories comprises of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

The cost of inventories of items that are not ordinarily interchangeable and goods or services produced and segregated for specific projects is assigned using specific identification of the individual costs.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories

Accounting Policies I .10 lmpairment of assets

The company assesses at each end of the reporting period whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. lf any such indication exists, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. lf there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount is estimated for the individual asset. lf it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs is determined.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

lf the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. That reduction is an impairment loss.

An impairment loss of assets carried at cost less any accumulated depreciation or amortisation is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease.

An impairment loss is recognised for cash-generating units if the recoverable amount of the unit is less than the carrying amount of the units. The impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the assets of the unit in the following order:

. .

first, to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then, to the other assets of the unit, pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit.

An entity assesses at each reporting date whether there is any assets other than goodwil! may no longer exist or may have of those assets are estimated.

that an impairment loss recognised in prior periods for any such indication exists, the recoverable amounts to a reversal of an impairment loss does not exceed rment loss been recognised for the asset in prior periods

The increased carrying amount of an asset other than the carrying amount that would have been determined

A reversal of an impairment loss of assets carried at recognised immediately in profit or loss. Any reversal

accumulated depreciation or amortisation other than goodwill is impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation

increase.

1.11 Share capitaland equity

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity afier deducting all of its liabilities.

1.12 Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12 months after the service is rendered, such as paid vacation leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted.

The expected cost of compensated absences is recognised as an expense as the employees render services that increase their entitlement or, in the case of non-accumulating absences, when the absence o@urs. The expec{ed cost of profit sharing and bonus payments is recognised as an expense when there is a legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past performance. Defined contribution plans Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are charged as an expense as they fall due.

Payments made to industry-managed (or state plans) retirement benefit schemes are dealt with as defined contribution plans where the company's obligation under the schemes is equivalent to those arising in a defined contribution retirement benefit plan.

The related cost of providing services recognised as revenue in the current period is included in cost of sales.

1.16 Borrowing costs Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifring asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset until such time as the asset is ready for its intended use. The amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined as follows: Actual borrowing costs on funds specifically borrowed for the purpose of obtaining a qualiffing asset less any temporary investment of those borrowings. Weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the entity on funds generally borrowed for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. The borrowing costs capitalised do not exceed the total borrowing costs incurred.

The capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when: expenditures for the asset have occurred; borrowing costs have been incurred, and activities that are neoessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress

2.1

Standards and interpretations effective and adopted in the current year

2016

ln the current year, the company has adopted the following standards and interpretations that are effective for the current financial year and that are relevant to its operations: Amendments to IAS 7: Disclosure initiative The amendment requires entities to provide additional disclosures for changes in liabilities arising from financing activities. Specifically, entities are now required to provide disclosure of the following changes in liabilities arising from financing activities: changes from financing cash flows; changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses; the effect of changes in foreign exchanges; changes in fair values; and other changes.

. . . . .

The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2017. The company has adopted the amendment for the first time in the 2017 annual financial statements. The impact of the amendment is set out in note Changes in Accounting Policy.

Amendments to IAS 12: Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets

realised Losses

ln terms of IAS 12 lncome Taxes, deferred tax assets are available against which the deductible temporary which may have an impact on the company:

only when it is probable that taxable profits will be utilised. The following amendments have been made,

lf tax law restricts the utilisation of losses to assessed in combination only with other deductible

of a specific type, a deductible temporary difference is ifferences of the appropriate type.

Additional guidelines were prescribed for evaluating whether the company will have sufficient taxable profit in future periods. The company is required to compare the deductible temporary differences with future taxable profit that excludes tax deductions resulting from the reversal of those deductible temporary differences. This comparison shows the extent to which the future taxable profit is sufficient for the entity to deduct the amounts resulting from the reversal of those deductible temporary differences.

The amendment also provides that the estimate of probable future taxable profit may include the recovery of some of an entity's assets for more than their carrying amount if there is sufficient evidence that it is probable that the entity will achieve this.

The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2017 The company has adopted the amendment for the first time in the 2017 annual financial statements. The impact of the amendment is set out in note Changes in Accounting Policy

2.2

Standards and interpretations not yet effective

The company has chosen not to early adopt the following standards and interpretations, which have been published and are mandatory for the company's accounting periods beginning on or after 01 January 2018 or later periods:

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture lf a parent loses control of a subsidiary which does not contain a business, as a result of a transaction with an associate or joint venture, then the gain or loss on the loss of control is recognised in the parents' profit or loss only to the extent of the unrelated investors' interest in the associate or joint venture. The remaining gain or loss is eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment in the associate or joint venture. The same treatment is followed for the measurement to fair value of any remaining investment which is itself an associate or joint venture. lf the remaining investment is accounted for in terms of IFRS I, then the measurement to fair value of that interest is recognised in full in the parents' profit or loss. The effective date of the amendment is to be determined by the IASB. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

lnsurance Contracts

nancial statements.

Uncertainty over lncome Tax Treatments The interpretation clarifies how to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12 when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. Specifically, if it is probable that the tax authorities will accept the uncertain tax treatment, then all

tax related items are measured according to the planned tax treatment. lf it is not probable that the tax authorities will accept the uncertain tax treatment, then the tax related items are measured on the basis of probabilities to reflect the uncertainty. Changes in facts and circumstances are required to be treated as changes in estimates and applied prospectively. The effective date of the interpretation is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2019. The company expects to adopt the interpretation for the first time in the 2019 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the interpretation will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 28: Annual lmprovements to IFRS 2014 - 2016 cycle

An entity such as a venture capital organisation, mutual fund or similar institution may elect to measure investments in associates or joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9 rather than by applying the equity method. The amendment to IAS 28 lnvestments in Associates and Joint Ventures now specifies that the election must be made separately per associate or joint venture and at the time of initial recognition of such investment.

Further, if an entity is not an investment entity, but has interests in an associate or joint venture which is an investment entity, then the entity may retain the fair value measurement of the associate or joint venture. The amendment now provides that such election must be made separately for each investment entity associate or joint venture. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or afier 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements. 23 - 19 J uly 2018 - 01 :31 PM

New Standards and lnterpretations (continued)

Amendments to IFRS 1: Annual lmprovements to IFRS 2014 - 2016 cycle

The amendment to IFRS 1 First Time Adoption of lnternational Financial Reporting Standards deleted certain short term exemptions concerning disclosures of financial assets, employee benefits and investment entities from IFRS 1.

The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Transfers of lnvestment Property: Amendments to IAS 40 The amendment deals specifically with circumstances under which property must be transferred to or from investment propefi. The amendment now requires that a change in use of property only occurs when the property first meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property and that there is evidence of a change in use. The amendment specifies that a change in managements intentions for use of the property, do not, in isolation, provide evidence of a change in use. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements.

The company expects to adopt the interpretation for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the interpretation will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 4: Insurance Contracts The amendment provides a temporary exemption that permits, but does not require, insurers, under specified criteria, to apply IAS 39 Financial lnstruments: Recognition and Measurement, rather than IFRS 9 Financial lnstruments for annual periods beginning before 1 January 2021. The exemption is only available provided the insurer has not previously applied any version of IFRS 9 (with some exceptions) and that the activities are predominantly connected with insurance.

A further exemption has been provided from IAS 28 lnvestments in Associates and Joint Ventures. ln terms of the exemption,

I

an insurer is exempt from applying uniform accounting policies when applying the equity method, insofar as the IAS 39/IFRS exemption is applied. Thus, the relevant accounting policies of the associate or joint venture are retained if the entity applies the IFRSS/|AS 39 exemption and the associate or joint venture does not apply the exemption, or visa versa. The amendment further permits, but does not require, insurers to apply the "overlay approach" to designated financial assets when it first applies IFRS 9. The overlay approach requires the entity to reclassiff between profit or loss and other comprehensive income, an amount which results in the profit or loss of the designated financial assets at the end of the reporting period being equal to what it would have been had IAS 39 been applied to the designated financial assets. Additional disclosures are required as a result of the amendment. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018.

The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 4: Applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with IFRS 4 lnsurance Contracts

The amendment to IFRS 4 provides a temporary exemption, allowing insurers to apply IAS 39 rather than IFRS 9. The exemption only applies in certain circumstances and only for annual periods beginning before 1 January 2O2'l

.

The exemption also introduces an "overlay approach" in specific circumstances. This approach requires the insurer to reclassiff an amount between other comprehensive income and profit or loss. This results in the profit or loss for designated financial assets being the same as if the insurer had applied IAS 39 rather than IFRS 9. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2017 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 2: Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions The amendment now specifies the treatment of vesting and non-vesting conditions with regards to cash-settled share-based payment transactions. The treatment is essentially similar to of such conditions for equity-settled share-based payment transactions. That is, non-market vesting conditions into consideration when estimating the number of conditions and other non-vesting conditions are awards which are expected to vest (and which ultimately vest) taken into consideration when determining the fair value of the

The amendment further provides guidance in terms of modifications which @nvert cash-settled share-based payment transactions to equity -settled share-based payment transactions. For such modifications, the equity-seftled share based payment transaction is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted at modification date, to the extent to which goods or services have been received. The liability for cash-seftled share based payment transactions is derecognised on the modification date. Any difference between the two is recognised immediately in profit or loss. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2017 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 15: Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customerc The amendment provides clarification and further guidance regarding certain issues in IFRS 15. These items include guidance in assessing whether promises to transfer goods or services are separately identifiable; guidance regarding agent versus principal considerations; and guidance regarding licenses and royalties. The effective date of the amendment is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the amendment for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the amendment will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements.

IFRS

I issued in November 2009 introduced new requirements for the classification and measurements of financial assets. I was subsequently amended in October 2010 to include requirements for the classification and measurement of

financial liabilities and for derecognition, and in November 2013 to include the new requirements for general hedge accounting. Another revised version of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014 mainly to include a)impairment requirements for financial assets and b) limited amendments to the classification and measurement requirements by introducing a "fair value through other comprehensive income" (FVTOCI) measurement category for certain simple debt instruments. Key requirements of IFRS 9:

All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial lnstruments: Recognition and Measurement are required to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objeclive is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent reporting periods. Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on outstanding principal, are measured at FWOCI. All other debt and equity investments are measured at fair value at the end of subsequent reporting periods. ln addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss. as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS I With regard to the measurement of financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit requires that the amount of change in the fair value unless the recognition of the effect of the changes of risk of the liability is presented in other create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or the liability's credit risk in other comprehensive value of a financial liability designated as at fair value loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the through profit or loss is presented in profit or 9 requires an expected credit loss model, ?s opposed to an !n relation to the impairment of financia! credit loss model requires an entity to account for expected incurred credit loss model under IAS 39. losses at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk credit losses and changes in those since initial recognition. lt is therefore no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised. The new general hedge accounting requirements retain the three types of hedge accounting mechanisms currently available in IAS 39. Under IFRS 9, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. ln addition, the effectiveness test has been replaced with the principal of an "economic relationship". Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity's risk management activities have also been introduced.

The effective date of the standard is for years beginning on or after 01 January 2018. The company expects to adopt the standard for the first time in the 2018 annual financial statements. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the company's annual financial statements

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 supersedes IAS 11 Construction contracts; IAS 18 Revenue; IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes; IFRIC 15 Agreements for the construction of Real Estate; IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and SIC 31 Revenue - Barter Transaclions lnvolving Advertising Services. The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

The company has secured direct overdraft facilities of R7 500 000 with Nedbank. These facilities are secured by a cession by the Louis Pasteur Hospital Holdings (Pty) Ltd, any any and all its rights in and to its debtors and of unlimited suretyships and guarantees from Louis Pasteur lnvestments Limited. Securities include amounts of R10 000 000 from Dr M Adam and R25 000 000 from First Clinic Properties One Limited.

Credit quality of cash at bank and short term deposits, excluding cash on hand The credit quality of cash at bank and short term deposits, excluding cash on hand that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings (if available) or historical information about counterparty default rates. None of the financial institutions with which bank balances are held defaulted in prior periods and as a result a credit rating of high are ascribed to the financial institutions. The company's maximum exposure to credit risk as a result of the bank balances held is limited to the carrying value of these balances detailed above. All bank balances are held with two banking institutions increasing the related concentrated risk. However, to mitigate the risk of loss, the company only transacts with highly reputable financial institutions. Fair value of cash and cash equivalents The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates it fair value.

Risk management (continued)

Financia! risk management The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The company's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the company's financial performance. The company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge

certain risk exposures. Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (company treasury) under policies approved by the board of directors. Company treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the company's operating units. The board of directors provides wriften principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. The company's risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available risk through an ongoing review of future commitments and Cash flow forecasts are prepared and adequate utilised

Risk management (continued)

lnterest rate risk The company's interest rate risk arises from loans to group companies, cash and cash equivalents and borrowings. Loans issued at variable rates expose the group to cash flow interest rate risk. Loans issued at fixed rates expose the company to a fair value interest rate risk.

At 3't December 2017, if interest rates on Rand-denominated borrowings had been 0.1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the year would have been R 29,'191 (2016: R 40,065) lower/higher, mainly as a result of higherflower interest expense on floating rate borrowings. Deposits and cash balances attrac{ interest at a rate linked to the prime rate. The company policy is to manage interest rate risk so the fluctuations in variable rates do not have material impact on profit or loss.

Credit risk Credit risk is managed on a group basis. Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits, cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and trade debtors. The company only deposits cash with major banks with high quality credit standing and limits exposure to any one counter-party.

Trade receivables comprise a widespread customer base. Management evaluated credit risk relating to customers on an ongoing basis. lf customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. Othenrvise, if there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. lndividual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the board. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Sales to retail customers are settled in cash or using major credit cards. Credit guarantee insurance is purchased when deemed appropriate. Financial assets exposed to credit risk at year end were as follows: 2017 33,264,695

do hereby make oath and state as follows

:

DEPONENT AND AUTHORITY

1

I

am a major female administration manager of the applicant that

has its principal place of employment at Louis Pasteur Building, 374 Francis Baard Street, Pretoria.

2

The facts herein contained are within my own

personal

knowtedge and belief, save where stated otherwise or appears

different from the context hereof, and are 1o the best of my knowledge, both true and conect.

3

Where I make legal submissions, I do so on the advice of the applicant's legal representatives which I believe to be correct.

4.

I have read and confirm as correct the contents of the draft affidavit of Tendani Muligwe in as far as they relate to me and to

issues within my knowledge.

I have been assured by the

applicants's attorney that should there be any changes to the draft founding affidavit before it is attested to by the deponent thereof my attention will be drawn thereto.

5.

I was employed by the second respondent in 2011 and was transferred to the applicant during 2013. Subsequent to that,

I

left the employ of the applicant in 2015 and rejoined the second

(\,e

Annexure N - Confirmatory Affidavit - Yaseera Amod - Page 3 of 11

3

respondent in 2016 and thereafter I was again transferred to the

applicant in 20'!6. I have remained in the employ of the applicant since 2016.

6

The applicant and the second respondent have shared services comprising of inter alia the following: accounting and financial management, information technology infrastructure, salary and

payroll administration, leave adnrinistration, pension and retirernent benefits adrninistration and staff rneal facilities.

7

The applicant supplies the second respondent with medical supplies and performs support functions in relation to medical

supplies including in respect of invoicing patients for medical supplies consumed.

B

The applicant orders medical supplies primarily for consumption by patients of the second respondent with a small portion going

towards consumption by walk

in

customers. The second

respondent makes payments of the salaries of the employees of

the applicant on the applicant's behalf and performs shared services for the applicant.

I

Prior to the appointment of the first respondent as a business

rescue practitloner

of the second

respondent,

the second

respondent would invoice patients also for all medical supplies

consumed while at the hospital

10.

On a monthly basis a report would be compiled of all the supplies

made by the applicant to the wards of the hospital as well as of all the supplies to patients of the second respondent while they

are hospitalised. When a patient is released the patient may order prescribed medicine from the applicant or from another pharmacy. ln so far as the applicant would render medicine to such persons this is not billed to the second respondent but this kind of supply is treated as transactions of the applicant directly with the patients.

11.

All the records in respect of medical supplies consumed by patients of the second respondent are kept electronically by the

second respondent, as part of its performance of the shared services. The second respondent

is at all times aware of

amounts payable to the applicant in respect of medical supplies

as the relevant records are in its possession. The applicant's employees have access to these records.

12.

Prior to the commencement of business rescue the second respondent at all times was responsible to ensure that the applicant has the required cash flow in order to comply with its obligations, especially towards its suppliers.

13.

The records generated to date indicate that the

second

respondent since rescue commencod has failed to pay all the

amounts payable

in respect of the period from June to

December 2018 for supplies rendered to it, including in respect of patients while in hospital. I have performed calculations which indicate that the total amount outstanding to date is no less than R14 59'l 546.08.

14.

The first respondent cannot say that he was not aware of the arrangement existing between the applicant and the second

respondent

as the second

respondent made substantial

payments in respect of amounts payable to the applicant during

the months of June, July and August 2018. From September 2018 and thereafter there was a drastic reduction in the amounts

paid by the second respondent. Following the removal of the

hospital manager

of the second respondent by the first

respondent he, during September 2018, took charge of the pharmacy, with the support of the pharmacist in charge, Ms

Maria Jacoba Aletta van Rensburg ("Ms Van Rensburg') and excluded me from meetings and decision making activities. I was called into a meeting and informed that Ms Van Rensburg is now in charge and that she will be the link between the applicant and

the second respondent. These instructions were given by Justin Adriaanse who is a member of the first respondent's team.

15.

The first respondent thereafter arranged for new credit terms with the suppliers of the applicant UPD and MMED. UPD credit terms were changed from 30 days to 60 days. The applicant had

been procuring medical supplies ftom MMED albeit on a limited

basis. We were instructed to place all orders in respect of surgical supplies with MMED as from 1 September 2418. The first respondent also negotiated an increased credit facility of R

8 million with MMED. I have on several occasions raised the complaint that MMED is more expensive than the other suppliers

to Ms Van Rensburg, but she insisted that, despite that, supplies should be obtained from MMED. The applicant's account with MMED has been blocked with effect from 7 December 2A18 for non-payment. MMED has opened an account for the second respondent and is now supplying directly to it.

16

During the month of September 2018 the second respondent paid a minimal amount to Rubicon.

17.

MMED soon refused to make further supplies to the applicant

and the practitioner was then forced to allow the applicant to procure from the usual suppliers.

18.

Mr Tendani Muligwe, a director at the pharmacy forwarded a

s

letter requesting that all medical supplies other than emergency

\

supplies should be provided to the second respondent only on a

cash on delivery basis on 25 October 2018. Notwithstanding, Ms

Van Rensburg continued to order and provide all medical supplies to the second responded on credit. During October and

November 2018 the second respondent was still procuring medication ?om the applicant and paying some of the suppliers

on a cash on delivery basis despite refusal to comply with a similar request from the applicant.

19

ln December 2018, after Ms Van Rensburg was suspended on

7 December 2A18 by the directors of the applicant, I became aware that she was employed by the practitioner presumably

with the second respondent. I found out that she continued to instruct the suppliers of the applicant to deliver medical supplies

as if she was still in the employ of the applicant. However, she

directed them

to

make deliveries directly

to the

second

respondent, namely to the eight floor, instead of the pharmacy. I was also informed by one of the drivers that he was informed

by Ms Van Rensburg that the applicant was no longer

in

operation.

20

I then arranged for the products to be intercepted and diverted

to the applicant's premises. Ms Van Rensburg then substituted the address and company details of the applicant with that of the

second respondent causing the suppliers to deliver medical

supplies

to the

second respondent directly.

I

communication$

to the suppliers informing them of

her

suspension and that she is not authorized to order medical supplies on behalf of the applicant as she has been suspended.

21

Ms Van Rensburg continues to order medical supplies on the account number of the respondent notwithstanding that she is

no longer employed with the applicant. This has occurred as recently as 20 December 20'18 when we received medical supplies marked for her attention.

22.

The second respondent has stopped providing some of the shared services from end of October 2018 other than the salaries. At the end of November 2018 the first respondent paid salaries to 13 of the 20 employees of the applicant. The second

respondent during and after October 2018 continued to order medicalsupplies on the account of the applicant notwithstanding termination of some of the shared services for the applicant on

the instructions of Ms Van Rensburg who was occupying the most senior position at the pharmacy and, in terms of the practitioner's instructions, took charge of the management of the pharmacy to my exclusion.

23

I further found out that during November 2018 the practitioner

d

had approached staff rnembers of the applicant to join a planned

new pharmacy. Rumours came to my knowledge which was to

I the effect that the first respondent was planning to set up a new pharmacy with the assistance of one of his friends who is a pharmacist.

24,

On 7

December 2018

I was mistakenly copied in

correspondence addressed by the first respordent to doctors

making use

of the facilities ol the second

respondent

communicating among others that the second respondent has partnered with a new pharmacy.

25

The second respondent is currently still ordering medication from the applicant and the applicant is still supplying medication

to the second respondent notwithstanding non'payment on the

part of the second respondent. I have been instructed by the directors of the applicant to allow such deliveries to continue despite that payment is not effected pending the outcome of the

application that the applicant intends to launch against the first and second respondents. Mr Tendani Muligwe said that we have

a moral obligation to continue to provide medical supplies to the Second Respondent.

26

Following Ms Van Rensburg's resignation another ernployee Marina Schrade walked out to work on the eigth floor with her. Before she walked out, on7 December 2A1B,l instructed Marina

for banking (an amount of

approximately R22

398.20). She was fully aware that since our shared services had

been suspended by the second respondent we were doing our

own banking in the pharmacy. She took the cash to an undisclosed location presumably to the eight floor for the second

respondent to deposit in a separate bank account. She did not inform me of her actions. When I inquired later that day she told me that upon instruction from Ms Van Rensburg she banked the

cash with the hospital banking clerk. I instructed her to get the cash back. She went to the hospital banking clerk and informed that the finance manager said that they cannot return the cash

and the instruclion to send the cash up was given to Ms Van

Rensburg by the first respondent who

is in charge.

The

banking clerk from the hospital then called me on Tuesday

11

December for me to send someone to collect the cash from

them. I asked her to deposit the cash into the applicant's bank account and provide me with proof thereof. The banking clerk

tells me on 21 December 2018 that she deposited it on the 13 December 2018.1 have still not received the proof of deposit.

27.

Recently one of the remaining 6 pharmacists employed with the

applicant has resigned.

I am not aware what her future

employment arrangements are, but understand that she is going

to Mpumalanga and is not going to join the first repondent's new
