Letter from the Chairman of East African Breweries Limited

To all shareholders of East African Breweries Limited 30th April 2015

Dear Shareholder,

Proposed Sale of Shares in Central Glass Industries Limited

On 1 April 2015, your Board announced that it had approved the Company entering into a conditional agreement for the sale of the entire issued share capital in CGIL to Consol. Under paragraph G.06 of the Fifth Schedule to the Capital Markets (Securities) (Public Offers, Listing and Disclosures) Regulations, 2002 issued under the Capital Markets Act (chapter 485A of the laws of Kenya), it is a requirement for the Company to seek and obtain your approval of the Sale because it involves the disposal of a subsidiary of the Company. The purpose of this Circular is to provide you with information on the reasons for, and the terms of, the Sale.

Background to and Reasons for the Sale

Initially a joint venture between EABL and an international development fund, CGIL produced its first products in April 1987 from its newly completed furnace whose construction had been commenced two years earlier. CGIL produces glass containers in flint, amber and green to internationally required standards and is now one of the leading container glass manufacturer in the East African region, with a fully integrated glass container manufacturing plant with printing facilities for bottle labelling in Kasarani, Nairobi. CGIL currently supplies its products to customers in Kenya, primarily the EABL group, and sells the extra capacity to local customers such as the Coca Cola group as well as a number of other customers primarily based in Uganda, and .

Following a thorough strategic review of its business operations and assets, EABL decided to exit the glass business in order to focus more on its core business of manufacturing, marketing and distributing alcoholic beverages and in order to unlock additional value for its shareholders by using the proceeds of sale to reduce existing debt in the Company. Following receipt of a number of offers from selected prospective purchasers, EABL concluded negotiations with Consol by agreeing to the Sale on the terms set out in the Share Purchase Agreement on 31st March 2015.

The Company, based on the above, believes that the Sale will allow for increased investment in its core beverage business, thereby ensuring that EABL remains on a strong and profitable growth trajectory. This Sale will also enable the Company to reduce its existing debt.

Further information on CGIL and Consol and their businesses are set out in Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 to this Circular respectively.

The Principal Terms of the Sale

The Company has entered into the Share Purchase Agreement with Consol under which Consol will acquire 100% of the issued share capital of CGIL, subject to satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions set out below. The Share Purchase Agreement contains certain indemnities and warranties, which are subject to customary limitations on liability and disclosures. During the interim period between signing and completion, EABL is required to run CGIL’s business in the ordinary course and to form a joint interim committee (comprising EABL and Consol representatives) to ensure a seamless hand over.

Following completion of the Share Purchase Agreement, CGIL will cease to be a member of EABL’s group and will become a member of Consol’s corporate group.

Consideration Payable for CGIL

It has been agreed between the Company and Consol that the consideration payable in respect of the Sale is KES. 4,491,215,200, subject to a purchase price adjustment mechanism to calculate the price to be paid in cash by Consol on completion of the Share Purchase Agreement.

- 4 -

Effect of the Sale on Existing Shareholders

The purchase price will be used by the Company to reduce existing debt and in investing in its core beverage business. The Sale will also enable the Company to divest of a non-core asset enabling increased focus on core business activities with a view to increasing its profits and returning value to shareholders.

Approvals for the Sale

Completion of the Share Purchase Agreement is conditional on the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions, including obtaining approval from the shareholders of the Company pursuant to paragraph G.06(b) of the Fifth Schedule to the Capital Markets (Securities) (Public Offers, Listing and Disclosures) Regulations, 2002, obtaining approval from the CAK pursuant to the Competition Act (chapter 504 of the laws of Kenya), obtaining consent from the South African Reserve Bank to enable Consol to make the relevant payments under the Share Purchase Agreement, and other conditions relating to CGIL’s business operations. At the date of this Circular, an application to the CAK for merger consent has been made and EABL shareholder approval is being sought in accordance with the terms of the Notice. The other conditions remain outstanding but are expected to be satisfied or waived prior to completion of the Share Purchase Agreement.

Risks Relating to the Sale and Material Adverse Change

As noted above, the Sale is conditional on a number of approvals from third parties. The Sale is also dependent on (a) there being no corruption investigation launched in relation to CGIL or no material adverse change to the business and operations of CGIL during the period between signing and completion, and (b) there being no material adverse change in the business and operations of Consol which results in Consol’s providers of financing not providing adequate funds to enable Consol to satisfy its payment obligations under the Share Purchase Agreement. In the event that Consol does not receive adequate funds due to a material adverse change in its business and operations, Consol has agreed to pay EABL a break fee of KES 102,224,304.

Ancillary Agreements

The terms of a number of ancillary commercial agreements have also been agreed as between EABL and CGIL, which will be entered into on completion, including a Framework Supply Agreement which will ensure continuity of supply of glass bottles to EABL and its group for a term of five years and in respect of which CGIL has agreed to pay EABL a success fee of KES 420,000,000. Pursuant to a management services agreement which will also be entered into on completion, EABL has agreed to provide certain management and general assistance services to CGIL for fees of KES 200,000,000 for an initial period of two months after completion, and a monthly fee of KES 100,000,000 for additional services to be provided for twelve months following completion.

Additional Information

Additional information and disclosures are included in Schedules 1 to 2 to this Circular. These are as follows:

Schedule 1 - Information on CGIL

Schedule 2 - Information on Consol

Copies of the following documents will be available for inspection by shareholders, free of charge, at the Company's offices at House, Ruaraka, P. O. Box 30160-00100, Nairobi, Kenya between 9.00 a.m. and 5.00 p.m. Monday to Friday (except public holidays) from the date of this Circular until the conclusion of the EGM:

(b) Framework Supply Agreement; and

(C) Management Services Agreement.

Advisers’ Consents

- 5 -

Each of the advisers to EABL, whose names appear on page 1 of this Circular, have separately given and have not withdrawn their consent to the issue of this Circular with the inclusion of their own names and references to them in the form and context in which they appear.

Responsibility Statement

The Directors of the Company, whose names appear on page 1 of this Circular, accept responsibility for the information contained herein. To the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors (who have taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case) the information contained in this Circular is in accordance with the facts and does not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information.

Recommendation

The Board has considered and believes that the Sale is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The purchase price payable by Consol is reflective of market value and constitutes a fair value for CGIL. The ability of CGIL to continue the supply of glass bottles to the Company for many years to come is an attractive feature, ensuring that the Company obtains high quality glass produced by CGIL enhanced by Consol’s vast experience and know-how. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend that the shareholders vote in favour of the resolution that will be proposed at the EGM as they intend to support the resolution in respect of their own shareholdings.

If you are in any doubt as to what action to take, you may seek independent advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, lawyer or other professional adviser of your choice.

Yours sincerely,

______

Charles Muchene Chairman
