<p style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On 8 March 2004, at the release of Sasol&#146;s
interim results for the six months to 31 December 2003, our Chief Executive
announced that Sasol was considering the potential for modest hedging in
respect of its exposure to the oil price in order to improve the stability of
cash flows. An analysis of this potential hedging strategy has been completed
and, given the opportunity to hedge an element of Sasol Synfuels&#146; income at the
current relatively high oil prices, the decision was taken to proceed. An
amount of 30,000 barrels a day (equivalent to approximately 20% of Synfuels&#146;
production) for financial year 2004/05 has therefore been sold forward at a
weighted average price of US$31.85. </font><font face="Times New Roman">Appropriate disclosure of this hedging will also be made in our 2004
annual report and Form 20-F.</font></p>

make statements that are not historical facts and relate to analyses and other

identify such forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of
identifying such statements.&#160; By their
very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and
uncertainties, both general and specific, and there are risks that predictions,
forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be
achieved.&#160; If one or more of these risks
materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results

The factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially
from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in
