JSE Code: PNC  ISIN: ZAE000022570

ANNOUNCEMENT                                                                    
Pinnacle is pleased to announce the acquisition of 100% of the issued share     
capital and shareholders loans of Tri Continental Distribution S.A. (Pty) Ltd   
("Tricon").                                                                     
Tricon distributes internationally recognized IBM and Lenovo notebooks, personal
computers, printers and servers in South Africa. The acquisition of Tricon is   
considered strategic as it grants the Group access to marketing channels, market
segments and product sets not available to it previously.                       
Although the transaction falls below the threshold of the categorization of     
transactions which require disclosure in terms of the JSE Limited`s Listings    
Requirements, the directors of Pinnacle have considered the strategic nature of 
the acquisition and deem it appropriate to inform shareholders of the           
transaction.                                                                    
The transaction is subject to various conditions precedent, including the       
approval of the Competition Commission, and should be completed by early next   
year.
