Currency Risk• Rand / Dollar exchange rate
RAIL Performance• RBCT Channel• Eskom Power supply
Port Performance• RB1 grade constraint
for Junior Miners
Economics• Coal prices • Oil Prices • GDP growth • Cleaner coal • Coal availability • Eskom Coal Supply
2014/15 – Proving to be an extremely challenging year

Current Trend Analysis – Rail Volumes Million tons per week
Annual Trend Analysis – Rail Volumes Million tons per FY
Key Success Factors▪ Increased security to reduce cable theft▪ Increased reliability of rolling stock & network▪ Better collaboration from pit to port▪ Proactive deviation management and improved
response times▪ Regular tracking of system balance and actual
position of locos and wagons to avoid bunching▪ Maintaining high balance of the system in order to
create a buffer for potential disruptions▪ High commitment of the cross-functional teams

To achieve 77Mt by end March, we need to maintain weekly tempo of 1.68Mt until week 45 and 1.73Mt from week 46

7 Transnet Projects
• Waterberg
• RichCor 81Mtpa
• Shongololo
• 2nd Overvaal Tunnel
• Swazi Link
• Navitrade RBTG
• Maputo/LCM Increase Capacity
• Expansion and Sustaining Capital
• Efficiency Levers• TVCC – Transnet value
Chain Co ordination• Lean ; Six Sigma• Pit to Port
Waterberg ProjectUpgrade the existing rail infrastructure to accommodate initially an additional 2 x 100-wagon trains and eventually 6 x 200-wagon traversing from Lephalale to Ermelo to connect to with the coal line going to Richards Bay
Why the Waterberg Coalfields?
Waterberg Coalfields• 40% of South Africa’s remaining coal reserves• Strategic shift from Mpumalanga

Broad Scope of Work
• Loop extension and doubling of line to provide 3 x 100 wagon trains at 3 locations
• New Lephalale Yard for 100W trains
• Lengthening of loops at 6 locations for 3 x 200W trains
• Completion of the Lephalale Yard for 200W trains
• Upgrade of substations (6) from single to double units
New loops & extended loops of 6 x 200W trains with mixed diesel/electric locomotives (100 Electric and 100 Diesel) at (4) locations
• Electrification of the Lephalale to Thabazimbi.
• Operate 6 x 200W trains with distributed power (DP) using dual power AC/DC locomotives from mine to destination without any locomotive change over at either Thabazimbi or Pyramid South.

RichCor 81Mtpa Ramp up and sustain tonnage capacity to 81Mtpa
RichCor 81Mtpa
• 18 Locations1_North West1_Gauteng11_Mpumalanga5_Kwa-Zulu Natal
RichCor 81Mtpa
• yard upgrade projects eg Blackhill; Saaiwater; Vryheid • new substations (5 on the DC section and 3 on the AC section)• substation upgrades (6 on the DC section and 2 on the AC section)• Electrical (OHTE) feeder wire projects, covering 99 km• Locomotive workshop in Ogies• Locomotive turntable in Richards Bay• Package of infra and rolling stock condition assessment systems• Two Eskom projects strengthening the transmission line backbones to the AC and DC
Transnet traction power systems, and providing power connections to the new substations• Continue the ~ R37bn expansion and sustaining project to 81mtpa
Project ShongololoOptimize operational efficiencies on the Coal Line and reduce operational costs
14
Project Shongololo
• FEL 2 - Pre Feasibility Development stage,
- Study Contract to be awarded
- Approximately 7 months
• Study to analyze- Entire rail network- Rolling stock- Related systems
• Possible outcomes- Eliminating dwell time at
yards- Running more robust
trains- Improving technology
2nd Overvaal TunnelRemove bottleneck along the coal line by the existing tunnel and improve turnaround time.
16
Second Overvaal Tunnel
• Existing tunnel – 30km South East of Ermeloapprox. 4km long
• Scope of Work:- Construction of 2nd Overvaal tunnel- and Provision of a signaled and electrified double track
• 2nd Overvaal tunnel offset 20m from existing tunnel
• FEL 3 stage – March 2015
Swaziland Rail LinkAlternative route to assist relieve pressure on the Transnet Coal Line to Richards Bay, freeing capacity for heavy haul bulk coal traffic.
18
Swazi Link
• FEL 3 – Feasibility Engineering Complete• FEL 4 Light in progress• Business Case approval – April 2015
Navitrade RBTGUpgrading of the Bhizolo yard in Richards Bay to increase capacity to the RBTG Navitrade Terminal to 6Mtpa
20
Navitrade RBTG
Navitrade Coal – from Mpumalanga and Newcastle/Dundee area to Richards Bay via Vryheid
Service design: 2 shunts per day, 80 – 120 wagons
Actual activity: 1 shunt per day, 50 wagons shortfall :
3 phased Plan - Study- Phase 1: Operational Improvements- Phase 2: Electrify 1 Arrival/Departure Line- Phase 3: Reconfigure Bhizolo yard to introduce
two arrival and two departure lines, and a bypass line.

2014 (currently) 1.8 Mtpa
2015 3 Mtpa 150
2016 4.5 Mtpa 200
2017 6 Mtpa 240
