Chairman’s Report

IT’S OUR 5TH ANNIVERSARY…

… and we are proud of what has been achieved.

PETCO understands that the whole is greater than the

sum of its parts

The result of hard work by all concerned is a successful network of people involved in PET Plastic Recycling

This network improves economies, lives and the

environment

It grows stronger and benefits all concerned

Petco has become part of the success story of

post-consumer PET recycling around the

world

GROWTH OF PET RESIN MARKET

PETCO TOP 10 ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR 2009

29,048 tons (957 million bottles) post consumer PET bottles collected & recycled in SA

6311 tons up from 2008 32% of beverage PET in 2009 (local market size:130 000 tons) Achieved despite extremely tough market conditions

Contracted recycler Extrupet upgraded their recycling plant to accommodate 2000MT+ of bottles per month

Extrupet installed & commissioned a new wash plant to produce a quality of flake suitable for Bottle-2-Bottle

Sen li Da Chemical Fibre Company commissioned

integrated Bottle-2-Fibre plant in Newcastle (22 737 ton capacity) to produce fibre for the domestic market

Signed up 16 new Associate Members: part of broadening stakeholder network

PETCO TOP 10 ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR 2009

Hosted 3 membership workshops in Cape Town & 3 in Johannesburg including one that focused on “Design for Recycling”

Despite economic recession & closure of SANS, collection of recycling levies invoiced to end Dec. 2009 maintained as percentage of market size - largely due to voluntary import declarations

Invited to join the Global Alliance for Recycling and Sustainable Development (GARSD)

PETCO & partners in Recovery Action Group developed a collective recycling brochure (part of a combined communication strategy) Inserted into the Pick 'n Pay Fresh Living Magazine

The new Waste Management Act came into effect 01 July 2009. PETCO has been involved in all public participation processes

CEO’s Review

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR:

Even though 2009 was a very difficult year for PET recycling globally, we

still managed to achieve our recycling targets

This was possible through increased voluntary financial support from bottlers, converters, raw material

producer & Coca-Cola South Africa

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR: COMMODITY PRICES

During the period of collapsed commodity prices, recycled PET struggled to compete with virgin alternative Crude oil crashed from $150/barrel to $50/barrel in global recession downstream market for PET chip fell sharply to Nov 2008 low (recovered

thereafter) 30% lower cost of virgin polyester versus using recyclate previously viable schemes plunged back to poor economics before 2004 the levels of subsidy required to sustain the buying, collecting & recycling of

post consumer PET bottles, shot up PETCO battled to support its “Category A” projects & maintain PET

recycling targets: had to dig into its reserves. During late 2009 prices recovered: relief, inter alia, for recyclers Strong rand resulted in PET industry struggling to compete with

imported products (cost base US $)

PETCO would like to see price levels stabilise where recycling becomes viable in its own right.

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR: LIMITED LEVY INCREASE

Limited financial support acquired from the PET industry - companies tried to cut operating costs

In early 2009, PETCO implemented a limited levy increase of R250/ton for those buying PET resin

Brand owners, notably Coca Cola, have increased their grant in aid

Reduced levels of business volumes: increased competition in all sectors (virgin producers unwilling to relinquish volumes to recyclers)

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR:B2B

On the upside, recent advances in PET recycling technology makes it possible to “close the loop” by recycling bottles and containers back into bottles

The “used bottle-to-fibre end-use” market saturated & limits PETCO‘s performance

In future an increasing amount of post-consumer bottles back into PET bottle resin

Extrupet (Pty) Ltd now produces around 24,000 t PET recyclate annually, mostly from post-consumer PET beverage bottles

Extrupet can produce food-safe rPET to North American FDA standards & likely to production material that comply to requirements of European EFSA soon.

We hope Extrupet & possibly Hosaf will invest in more Bottle-2-Bottle capacity in next 1-2 years

PETCO still needs to encourage and improve sorting among the collectors to improve the quality of post consumer PET.

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEARNEW CONTRACTED RECYCLER

PETCO started to engage with a new recycler Sen Li Da Chemical Fibre (Pty) Ltd. (15 000 sq m plant):

Vertically integrated Uses all of its PET flakes for fibre conversion Two collection points (Jhb & Durban) Provides income opportunities for +/- 200 people (120 are local, 80

from overseas)

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR: LEGISLATION

New Waste Management Act effectively makes Extended Producer Responsibility a legal requirement going forward

Packaging industry (including PETCO) developing a Paper and Packaging Industry Waste Management Plan (IWMP) as required by Minister

In future there will be a compulsory packaging and paper levy of some kind

A new structure will be needed to manage inter-alia the funding and monitor progress - consistent with current good practice globally

Our challenge at PETCO is to ensure that the levy is as low as possible & that all players in packaging & paper industry share the responsibility

We don’t want to jeopardise existing initiatives such as the current PETCO levy, but to support it & extend it to other packaging sectors

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY OF THE YEAR: PARTNERSHIPS

Our partnership with the Plastics Federation of South Africa (PFSA) in creating awareness continues to be close & mutually beneficial

Our target for 2010 is 30 380 tons or 31% beverage PET

We believe that high rates of recycling can only be achieved through the separation of waste at household level

This year PETCO supported projects (cost: almost R1m) with a strong focus on public & consumer-based education and awareness

programmes

CATEGORY “A” PROJECTS

PETCO spent R26.2m (87%) of its 2009 budget on Category “A” projects from January to December 2009

Three Category “A” projects approved to date:

Extrupet: 5-year agreement with PETCO: 5676 tons of PET recycled in

2005; 12 333 tons in 2007, 14 000 in 2008, 14 295 in 2009 and rising to approx 26 000 tons by 2010 (depends on market conditions)

Hosaf Recycling: 5-year agreement with PETCO; 2164 tons of PET

recycled in 2005; 3901 tons for 2007, 4091 for 2008, 3371 for 2009 and

rising to +6000 by 2010 (depends on market conditions)

Kaytech Engineered Fabrics: 4-year contract with PETCO: 7800 tons of

RPET over the period

Two additional projects due to come on stream in 2010: Extrupet's new Bottle-to-Bottle Recycling Plant ramping up to 9000 tpa through

2010, and State-of-the-art bottle-to-fibre plant by SenLi Da Chemical Fibre (Newcastle,KZN).

Will take approx 12 000 tons of bottles in 2010 (capability of up to 22 000 tons in the periods following)

INCOMING CHAIRMAN’S ROAD AHEAD

8 STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES FOR PETCO: 2010/2011

Further bottle-2-bottle recycling

Stakeholders are encouraged to invest in B2B rPET capacity to match rPET growth targets.

PETCO will continue to support new “end use” development for rPET (B2B recycling is an international trend – THE FINAL FRONTIER)

Strive towards inclusion of ALL pet industry role players

We want companies that are still not members of PETCO to become participants in PETCO (Become a member, there are many membership categories)

Re-evaluate collection strategy

The current collection strategy should be re-evaluated. The possibility of direct support of collectors could start new collection initiatives and improve the quality of the collected bottles.

Develop an understand pet bottle end-use economics

The detailed economics of competing end-use solutions to be set out

and assessed.

8 STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES FOR PETCO: 2010/2011

Reaffirm and ensure ongoing stakeholder commitment

Buy-in and continued support from PETCO shareholders, recyclers, suppliers and municipalities is essential: a strategy required

Get the retailers on board

Retailers could support end-use markets & assist in expanding collections, assist with funding & take up their percentage shareholding

Changed financial management practices

Given increased market volatility, we are re-assessing & balancing both income and expenditure more frequently

Increased consumer awareness, marketing and PR

Continue existing education and awareness work

Seek integration with corporate social investment programmes

Develop an improved strategy to communicate with municipalities

4 THREATS TO SUCCESSFUL EXECUTION OF STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES

Funding pressure

Due to the market conditions of 2009, PETCO has used reserves to fund recycling through the recent adverse economic cycle.

Government legislation

Deposit or Levy on NRPET bottles

PET could be labelled a priority waste in terms of the new act

PET converters who do not belong to PETCO may be asked to prepare their own industry waste management plan (IWMP)

Legislation is potentially positive:

DEA is looking to industry to put IWMP together

Legislation could also support PETCO's levy collection efforts

Lack of leverage…

…with some key stakeholders within the PET industry who do not participate in PETCO

Inadequate collection infrastructure: The current method of collection largely from dumpsites may not be

capable of yielding the volumes as targeted Efforts in curb side collection, MRF's & separation at source may be

stalled due to lack of funding

4 THREATS TO SUCCESSFUL EXECUTION OF STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES

WHERE TO FROM HERE?

PETCO is committed to

work with our partners in

government, industry and civil society in South Africa to

diverting plastics from landfill

in order to

reduce climate change impact,

address the

energy deficit,

and achieve a step change in

efficient use of resources

It will be an exciting process to watch, and we hope that you'll be involved
