OUR CAPITAL BUSINESS PRIVATE EQUITY MANAGEMENT Our private equity business will consists of proprietary influential equity investments across Africa and other emerging markets, for we believe that building proprietary investment position is a first step and, that needs to be complimented with a strong human capital such as we have mobilised over the past 5yrs in private equity investing in emerging markets, in this regard we have discovered unique opportunities in building a private equity fund management business in Southern Africa. We have made considerable progress in laying the foundation for this exciting space and we expect to see this adding to value creation for our clients in the near future. We apply a three “tier” Investment Process as follows:

ORIGINATION EXECUTION PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

Our target Internal Rate of Return (“Target IRR”) on our investments is 30% over an investment period spanning between 3 to 5 years. The AB Approach We seek to create value by directing capital towards strong companies operating in Zimbabwe seeking local equity partners and capital to support growth. We engage in friendly transactions and aim to be investment partners of leading regional and global brands operating in or planning to operate in Zimbabwe and whose objective is achieving exceptional performance over time. We strive to achieve improvements in growth and global competitiveness that benefit not only our investors, but all of society’s stakeholders. We apply a rigorous investment approach which is consistent across all investment types and is under-pinned by extensive due diligence.

We have a strong understanding; We have potential to achieve our Target IRR; and Target investment has potential market-size and profitability that is attractive at a

regional level. Portfolio Management Our team of professionals has significant experience in portfolio management and are mostly tasked with managing and monitoring our and client investments. This process also requires amongst others, various technical skills ranging from financial, risk management, business, devising and negotiating exit. Once we make an investment, the most effective members of our management team in that particular investee company sector will play an on-going role as board members and strategic advisers to the business, to ensure that our investment thesis, which we develop at due diligence and execution phase, is properly executed. We have significant experience in portfolio management and some of the activities that we undertake when managing or monitoring our and client investments include:

Quarterly review of Investee Company’s financial performance with management;

Review of investee companies performance against investment thesis; Participation in board/shareholder meetings; and Timing and execution of exit.
