Company Profile
Introduction
CCP 12J Fund Limited (“CCP 12J” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated as a private company in the
Republic of South Africa under the name CCP Mining Investments Proprietary Limited on 29 August 2017. The
Company changed its name to CCP 12J Fund Proprietary Limited on 12 December 2017 and then converted
to a public company on 24 January 2018. The Company is a Venture Capital Company as defined in section
12J (1) of the Income Tax Act, and is licensed as a Financial Services Provider in terms of section 8 for the
Financial Advisory and Intermediary Services Act No. 37 of 2002 under license number 48868. It has been a
shelf company from its date of incorporation until just prior to the end of the financial year ended 28 February
2018.
No significant business activity occurred during the 6-month period ended 28 February 2018 other than the
equity capital raising completed in February 2018. As such, the annual financial statements only contain
business activities pertaining to the issuing of new shares. All commentary in this annual report should be thus
read taking this into account.
Corporate Governance
CCP 12J is committed to the highest standards of corporate governance. The board of directors supports the
King IV Report on Corporate Governance (“King Code”). However, as mentioned above, CCP 12J has been in
operation for less than 6 months and processes are being implemented to appropriately comply with the
recommendations of the King Code.
Good corporate governance is an integral part of CCP 12J’s business philosophy and will guide the way in
which CCP 12J interacts with all its stakeholders. Accordingly, CCP 12J aims to comply with the provisions
and the spirit of the King Code to the extent that these are practical and appropriate for an unlisted public
company of its nature and size.
CCP 12J is chaired by an independent non-executive director. It does not have a Chief Executive Officer or a
Managing Director.
As at 28 February 2018, the board of CCP 12J comprised three non-executive directors. It is the board’s
objective to nominate an additional 2 independent directors.
When appointing directors, the board will consider its needs in terms of skills, experience, diversity, and size
to ensure board effectiveness. The directors have a duty and responsibility to ensure that the principles set out
in the King Code are observed. The directors have a fiduciary duty to act in good faith, with due diligence and
care and in the best interests of the Company and all stakeholders.
As at 28 February 2018, the company did not have an Audit Committee in place. However, the Company has
subsequent to year-end commenced a process of identifying suitable candidates with the objective of
establishing an audit committee.
The Investment Committee is not a sub-committee of the board, however, all current board members are
members of the committee together with two additional independent members co-opted for their independence
and industry expertise.

The agenda for the annual general meeting is set by the Company Secretary and communicated to all
shareholders in the notice of the annual general meeting, which accompanies this report.
The Company recognises the importance of its shareholders’ attendance at its annual general meeting.
Explanatory notes setting out the effect of all proposed resolutions accompany the notice of meeting. Adequate
time will be provided by the chairman in the annual general meeting for the discussion of any proposed
resolutions. The conduct of a poll to decide on any proposed resolutions is controlled by the chairman at the
meeting and takes account of the votes of all shareholders, whether present in person or by proxy. A proxy
form is included in the annual report for this purpose.

Letter to Shareholders

24 July 2018
Dear Shareholders
CCP 12J is just 6 months old. It was incorporated as a private company on 29 August 2017 and converted to
a public company on 24 January 2018.
The Company is registered with the Financial Services Conduct Authority (FSCA) as a Financial Services
Provider (Licence number 48868), and received approval to conduct business as a Venture Capital Company
in terms of Section 12J of the Income Tax Act (Section 12J) on 7th February 2018.
At the same time, a “soft” equity offer was made to the public in order to raise the equity capital required in
order to commence operations. R 44 million was raised from the public and a further amount of some R 11
million was raised from DRA (part of its seed commitment of R 150 million). This was a commendable effort
in a very short time period by a team of specialists from Stockdale Street and DRA’s Concentrate Capital
Partners.
The company continues to build capacity with a permanent full time Managing Director, Paul Miller, being
appointed by CCP Managers 12J (Pty) Limited, our management company, on 1 May 2018. Paul has a unique
combination of strong mining finance skills and operating mining experience. Mike Clare, a seasoned financial
product distribution specialist, has also been contracted to drive the effort to build the distribution channel (and
thus enhance the Company’s ability to raise equity capital) via Independent Financial Advisers and Wealth
Managers.
Considerable effort has gone in to preparing for additional equity capital raisings in August 2018 and February
2019, and into building our pipeline of potential investments.
Our investment strategy remains unchanged from that communicated in the prospectus issued in February
2018 i.e. CCP 12J will pursue mining related equity investment opportunities which meet all of the following
criteria:
the transaction meets the criteria of a Qualifying Investment under section 12J of Income Tax Act;
the DRA Group has a high level of confidence in the underlying project;
the transaction involves a high calibre (bankable) project owner and/or product off-taker;
substantially all other material identified underlying project risks can be significantly mitigated or
transferred;
the investment exit strategy serves both the interests of the project owner and CCP 12J; and
10
the Investment Committee has a high level of confidence that an appropriate risk adjusted return could
be earned by the Investors.
Tailings, dump retreatment projects and the expansion of existing high quality mining operations would
typically, but not exclusively, meet the above criteria.
Since launching in late February 2018, our management company has reviewed a total of 35 possible
investments in the Platinum Group Metals, Gold, Chrome and Coal sectors, of which 26 remain active.
Potential individual investment amounts range between R40m and R200m. Formal proposals have been
issued to a number of potential investee companies, and transaction origination and evaluation procedures
continue. We expect our first investment(s) to be presented to the Investment Committee for consideration
before the end of 2018.
We will report regularly to shareholders via email and our website (www.ccp12j.co.za), which we encourage
all of our shareholders to visit.
Yours faithfully
Michael Golding

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2018
DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT AND APPROVAL OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
The directors are required in terms of the Companies Act, to maintain adequate accounting records and are
responsible for the content and integrity of the financial statements. It is their responsibility to ensure that the
financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the company as at the end of the financial year and the
results of its operations and cash flows for the six months then ended, in conformity with International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The external auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on these
financial statements.
The financial statements set out on pages 9 to 24 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and are based on
appropriate accounting policies applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates.
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. To enable the
directors to meet these responsibilities, the board of directors sets standards for internal control aimed at reducing
the risk of error or loss in a cost-effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities
within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure
an acceptable level of risk. 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 identifying,
assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the company. While operating risk cannot be
fully eliminated, the company endeavors to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems
and ethical behavior are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints.
The directors are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system
of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of
the financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not
absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. The directors have reviewed the company's cash flow
forecast for the 12 months from date of approval, in light of this review and the current financial position, they are
satisfied that the company has access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the
foreseeable future. The external auditors, BDO South Africa Incorporated, are responsible for independently
auditing and reporting on the company's financial statements for the six months ended 28 February 2018. These
financial statements have been audited by the company's external auditors and their unmodified report is presented
on pages 7 to 8.
The financial statements set out on pages 9 to 24, which have been prepared on the going concern basis, were
approved by the board of directors on 13 June 2018 and were signed on their behalf by:
JJ Nel, Director

The primary investment objective of the company is to secure and manage a portfolio of mining related equity investments that comply with the terms of section 12J of the Income Tax Act. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. (a) Basis of preparation The financial statements of the company have been prepared on the going concern basis in accordance with, and in compliance with, International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee interpretations issued and effective at the time of preparing these financial statements and the Companies Act of South Africa. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, unless otherwise stated in the accounting policies. These financial statements are presented in South African Rand, which is the company's functional currency. (b) Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards In the current period, the company has applied all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards (“IASB”) and the International Financial Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) of the IASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for accounting periods beginning after 29 August 2017 (date of incorporation).
New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective As at 28 February 2018, the following standards and interpretations had been issued but were not mandatory for annual periods ending 28 February 2018: IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – New standard that replaces IAS 39 comprising guidance on

CCP 12J FUND LIMITED (Registration number: 2017/386112/06) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2018 (CONTINUED) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (c) Significant judgements In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts presented in the financial statements and related disclosures. Use of available information, historical experience and the application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the financial statements. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future period affected. There were no areas of significant judgement in the current period. (d) Key sources of estimation uncertainty Taxation Judgement is required in determining the provision for income taxes due to the complexity of legislation. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the course of business. 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 realise in the foreseeable future. Assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets requires the company to make significant estimates related to expectations of future taxable income. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecasted cash flows from operations and the application of existing laws. 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. (e) Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the company’s statement of financial position when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial Assets All financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date where the purchase or sale of a financial asset is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the financial asset within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus the transaction costs, except those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) which are initially measured at fair value.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (e) Financial instruments (continued) Loans and receivables Trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and other receivables including loans receivable from related entities that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as “loans and receivables”. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, are measured for indicators of impairment at each reporting date. Financial assets are
impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been adversely affected.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. Trade payables Accounts payable are measured at fair value net of transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on the basis of the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Financial liabilities are derecognised when they are discharged, cancelled or when they expire.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(f) Stated capital and equity An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the company are recognised at the proceeds received. The costs directly attributable to the issuing of equity instruments are accounted for as a deduction from equity, net of any related income tax benefit. (g) Taxation Current tax assets and liabilities Current tax for the current period is, to the extent unpaid, recognised as a liability. If the amount already paid in respect of current period exceeds the amount due for the period, then the excess is recognised as an asset. Current tax assets and liabilities for the current period is measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is charged or credited to profit or loss, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. (h) Interest income Interest is recognised, in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.

CCP 12J FUND LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2018 (CONTINUED) 13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT 13.1.1 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 shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. The capital structure of the company consists of cash and cash equivalents disclosed in Note 5 and equity as disclosed in the statement of financial position. 13.1.2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk and liquidity risk. The company's overall risk management programme focuses on unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the company's financial performance. Liquidity risk The company's risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available to cover future commitments and that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations when due, under both normal and stressed conditions. The company manages liquidity risk through an ongoing review of future commitments. The board of directors further monitors liquidity risk by forecasting future cash inflows and outflows and reviewing actual cash flows. The liquidity risk is minimal as there are no borrowings. Interest rate risk The company has significant cash resources and invests these with banks at the most competitive interest rates. As a result of the timing of inflows the interest rate risk at year-end was not significant. Credit risk Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits, cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the company. The company only deals with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The company’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored, and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties as deemed appropriate by the board.

SUMMARY OF RIGHTS CONTAINED IN SECTION 58 OF THE COMPANIES
ACT 71 OF 2008 (“Companies Act”)
In terms of section 58 of the Companies Act, read with the Company’s memorandum of
incorporation –
a shareholder may, at any time and in accordance with the provisions of section 58 of the Companies
Act, appoint any individual (including an individual who is not a shareholder) as a proxy to participate
in, and speak and vote at the meeting on behalf of such shareholder;
a shareholder may appoint two or more persons concurrently as proxies, and may appoint more than
one proxy to exercise voting rights attached to different securities held by the shareholder;
a proxy may delegate his authority to act on behalf of the shareholder to another person, subject to
any restriction set out in the instrument appointing the proxy;
the appointment of a proxy is suspended at any time and to the extent that the shareholder chooses
to act directly and in person in the exercise of any such shareholder’s rights as a shareholder;
the appointment of a proxy is revocable unless the proxy appointment expressly states otherwise;
if the appointment of a proxy is revocable, the shareholder may revoke the proxy appointment by (i)
cancelling it in writing or making a later inconsistent appointment of a proxy; and (ii) delivering a copy
of the revocation instrument to the proxy and to the Company. The revocation of the proxy appointment
constitutes a complete and final cancellation of the proxy's authority to act on behalf of the shareholder
as of the later of (i) the date stated in the revocation instrument, if any, and (ii) the date on which the
revocation instrument was delivered to the proxy and to the Company;
a proxy is entitled to exercise, or abstain from exercising, any voting right of the shareholder without
direction, except to the extent that the instrument appointing the proxy provides otherwise; and
unless revoked, the appointment of a proxy in terms of this proxy form remains valid until the end of
the meeting, even if the meeting or a part thereof is postponed or adjourned.
NOTES TO THE FORM OF PROXY
1 A shareholder may insert the names of a proxy or the names of two alternative proxies of the
shareholder’s choice in the space provided, with or without deleting “the chairman of the annual
general meeting”, but any such deletion must be initialled by the shareholder. The person whose
name appears first on this form of proxy and which has not been deleted shall be entitled to act as
proxy to the exclusion of those names following.
2 A shareholder is entitled to one vote on a show of hands or, on a poll, one vote in respect of each
ordinary share held. A shareholder’s instructions to the proxy must be indicated by either (i) inserting
the relevant number of votes exercisable by the shareholder in the appropriate box or (ii) marking a
cross in the appropriate box, in which case all of the votes held by the relevant shareholder shall be
deemed to have been exercised in respect that instruction. Failure to comply with this will be deemed
to authorise the proxy to vote or to abstain from voting at the annual general meeting as he/she
deems fit in respect of all the shareholder’s votes.
3 A vote given in terms of an instrument of proxy shall be counted in relation to the annual general
meeting, notwithstanding the death, insanity or other legal disability of the person granting it or the
transfer of the ordinary shares in respect of which the proxy is given, unless an intimation as to any
of the aforementioned matters has been received by the company secretary or by the chairman of
the annual general meeting before the commencement of the annual general meeting.
4 The revocation of a proxy appointment shall be effective as of the later of (i) the date stated in the
revocation instrument, if any, and (ii) the date on which the revocation instrument was delivered to
the proxy and to the Company.
5 If a shareholder does not indicate on this form of proxy that his/her proxy is to vote in favour of or
against any resolution or to abstain from voting, or gives contradictory instructions, or should any
further resolution(s) or any amendment(s) which may properly be put before the annual general
meeting, be proposed, the proxy shall be entitled to vote as he/she thinks fit.
6 The authority of a person signing a proxy in a representative capacity must be attached to this form
of proxy unless waived by the chairman of the annual general meeting.
7 A minor or any other person under legal incapacity must be assisted by his/her parent or guardian
as applicable, unless the relevant documents establishing capacity are produced or have been
registered with the company secretary.
8 Where there are joint holders of ordinary shares:
any one holder may sign the form of proxy; and
the vote(s) of the senior shareholders (for that purpose seniority will be determined by the order
in which the names of ordinary shareholders appear in the Company’s register) who tender a
vote (whether in person or by proxy) will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other
joint shareholder(s).
9 It is recommended that proxies and letters of representation be emailed to the company secretary,
Elise Waldeck, [email protected] by no later than 10:00 on Friday, 10 August 2018. This
proxy form must, in any event, be delivered to the Company, or to the chairperson of the meeting,
before the proxy exercises any rights of the shareholder at the meeting.
10 Any alteration or correction made to this form of proxy, other than the deletion of alternatives, must
be initialled by the signatory/ies.
11 The completion and lodging of this form of proxy shall not preclude the relevant shareholder from
attending the annual general meeting and speaking and voting in person thereat to the exclusion of
any proxy appointed in terms hereof.
12 The chairman of the annual general meeting may reject or accept a form of proxy that is completed,
other that in accordance with these instructions and notes, provided that the chairman is satisfied as
to the manner in which a shareholder wishes to vote.
13 Subject to the restrictions set out in this form of proxy, a proxy may delegate the proxy’s authority to
act on behalf of a shareholder to another person.
