UPDATE FROM THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER

Dear Sasol follower,

I am pleased to report that Sasol’s profitability has improved
further in the third quarter of our 2011 financial year. This is
due to our sustained focus on factors within our control – such
as enhancing operational efficiencies, delivering on our business
improvement plans and strict cost management. Robust global
commodity prices have countered the impact of the strong rand,
supporting healthy margins. Improved production volumes have
sustained good cash generation and a solid balance sheet.

After carrying out its largest planned maintenance outage ever in
the first half of the financial year, Sasol Synfuels improved its
production performance significantly. Oryx GTL maintained good
operating rates and Arya Sasol Polymer Company exceeded expected
utilisation rates in the third quarter. Increased sales volumes
ensured that the chemicals businesses continued to perform well,
contributing almost one third to the group’s operating profit.

We are excited about our growth prospects in Canada and have
already started to benefit from the production of our shale gas.

In South Africa, we continue to engage with the South African
Government on cost-recovery solutions related to the capital
investment required to meet the proposed more stringent national
fuel specifications. Together with organised business, we are
also engaging with the Government on climate change policy
initiatives with the view to ensuring that all inputs are
carefully considered.

We remain committed to increasing shareholder returns through
accelerating our gas-to-liquids (GTL) growth strategy and
enhancing the operational efficiencies of our foundation
businesses, while delivering on our progressive dividend policy.
Our strategy to increase natural gas reserves through exploration
and acquisitions that complement our GTL value proposition
remains on track.

Sasol is well positioned to deliver solid financial and
operational results for the full financial year.

Strong commodity prices counter rand strength

For the third quarter of the 2011 financial year, the average
dated Brent crude oil price of US$105/barrel (bbl) at an average
exchange rate of R7,01/US$1 resulted in a 27% increase in
domestic fuel prices compared with the first half of the
financial year.

The price of crude oil remains volatile. If the unrest in the
Middle East and North Africa continues, it risks further
compromising the stability of the oil-rich region and so the risk
premium (estimated at US$10-20/bbl) is unlikely to decline. The
converging financial, fundamental and geopolitical trends suggest
that oil prices will be well supported above US$100/bbl in the
near future, with risk to the upside.

Debt sustainability issues in the major developed economies have
created an overhang of the world’s main currencies and have
encouraged capital flows into the currencies of peripheral
developed and emerging markets. Against this backdrop, it is
difficult to make a strong case for a weakening of the rand
despite some evidence of overvaluation from a fundamental
perspective. Our near term forward planning incorporates only a
marginally weaker average R/US$ exchange rate compared to that in
the 2011 financial year.

Chemical margins widen

Chemical product margins improved significantly in the third
quarter of the financial year, with international polymer and
solvent commodity prices increasing by approximately 15% in US
dollar terms from their first half levels.

At current oil prices, polymer prices still appear to trade below
the industry trend. We do, however, anticipate an improvement in
global polymer capacity utilisation from 2012, when we expect the
rate of increase in demand for polymers to start to overtake the
rate at which new capacity is coming on stream. This should
support polymer prices but is dependent on there being no ‘double
dip’ in global GDP.

Operational improvements enhance the bottom line

We are pleased to report that capacity utilisation at Sasol
Synfuels has improved significantly from the first half of the
financial year.

In the third quarter, we produced 1,9 million tons of saleable
product due to higher planned plant availability after the large
maintenance shutdown in the first half. Total production for the
first three quarters of the financial year amounts to 5,3 million
tons.

Oryx GTL in Qatar delivered a positive production performance
over the first three quarters of the financial year, when the
average daily production was 25 600 bbl/day (bbl/d). Planned
plant availability during the third quarter was, however, lower
than that of the first six months, as integrity improvements and
de-bottlenecking initiatives continued. Since then, plant
utilisation has improved significantly and in May 2011 the
average daily production was 32 000 bbl/d, or 99% of nameplate
capacity.

The Polymers business continues to increase plant utilisation at
our low-cost Middle East operations. During the third quarter of
the financial year, the ethane cracker at the Arya Sasol Polymers
joint venture produced high-quality ethylene at 81% of the
nameplate capacity. As previously guided, the cracker had been
constrained at 80% of nameplate capacity due to a design
limitation in the demethaniser column. In May 2011, the cracker
was shut down for design modifications to overcome these
limitations. The unit has since been commissioned and the focus
is now on ramping up the plant to design capacity and to prove
sustainable operability at higher rates. This ramp-up is expected
to last until the end of the second quarter of the 2012 financial
year.

Arya Sasol Polymers’ downstream low-density and high-density
polyethylene plants continue to set new production records, with
third quarter utilisation rates of 104% and 87% of nameplate
capacity respectively. In our South African operations, we have
made progress with the opportunities identified to increase
production through more efficient use of our asset base and the
approval of selected capital projects.

Sasol Olefins & Surfactants continues to improve its financial
performance. Robust demand lifted sales volumes by 8% in the
third quarter, compared with the quarterly average of the first
half of the financial year. High lauric oil prices have allowed
us to improve margins in our synthetic alcohol business. At our
Lake Charles operations in North America, low regional natural
gas prices are enhancing the profitability of our ethane cracker.

Cash fixed costs fall in real terms

We continue to benefit from our focus on cost containment. Group
cash fixed costs for the first three quarters of the financial
year remain lower in real terms than those of the 2010 financial
year. This result is mainly due to energy efficiency initiatives,
as well as benefits realised from our Functional Excellence
programme and business improvement plans.

Strong cash generation funds growth, allows for improved
shareholder returns

Healthy cash generation in the third quarter sustained a strong
balance sheet despite increased capital investments, including
payment of the upfront purchase consideration for our interests
in the Farrell Creek shale gas assets in Canada.

We estimate group capital investments for the full financial year
of R23 billion.

Our progressive dividend policy allows us flexibility to
consistently return value to shareholders while remaining well
positioned to fund investment opportunities.

More clarity on Clean Fuels 2 welcomed

Sasol welcomes the recent release of draft regulations relating
to fuel specifications and standards (Clean Fuels 2) by the South
African Government. They propose that South Africa should move
directly from current fuel specifications and standards, known as
Clean Fuels 1 (which are compatible with Euro 2 emission
standards), to Clean Fuels 2 (which are compatible with the Euro
5 emission standards on targeted key parameters), by 2017.

Sasol supports the objectives of Clean Fuels 2, which are an
improvement in air quality and support for the local motor
industry. We are committed to working with the Department of
Energy (DoE) and other stakeholders towards a reduction in
vehicle emissions, and the consequent improvement in air quality
in South Africa. Sasol also welcomes the lead time proposed to
make the required changes at refineries, as well as the
opportunity to discuss cost-recovery solutions with the DoE and
National Treasury.

Energy efficiency and natural gas help address climate change
challenge

Sasol recognises the challenge posed by climate change to South
Africa in particular.

We welcome the government initiative to develop national policy
aimed at ensuring a coordinated, coherent, efficient and
effective response to this global challenge. We view the release
by National Treasury of the discussion paper “Reducing Greenhouse
Gas Emissions: The Carbon Tax Option”, as an important milestone
in this process. Sasol believes that South Africa must make the
transition to a lower carbon economy while remaining sensitive to
the urgent developmental needs of the country. Sasol understands
that this can only be achieved through an integrated policy that
is appropriate to the unique circumstances of South Africa, is
economically efficient and apportions costs equitably.

It is against this background that Sasol is progressing energy
efficiency initiatives, the further use of natural gas as a
feedstock and other carbon mitigation and adaptation measures.

Second shale gas acquisition drives our GTL growth strategy

We remain focused on accelerating our GTL growth strategy. In
this regard, we completed our second shale gas acquisition on 10
June 2011. This acquisition comprises a 50% interest in
Talisman’s Cypress A acreage for a final purchase consideration
amounting to CAD$1 034 million (ZAR7 162 million at the closing
CAD/ZAR exchange rate of 6,93 on 9 June 2011). It comprises an
initial purchase price for the Cypress A assets of
CAD$246 million (ZAR1 704 million), which was paid in cash on the
closing date, and CAD$788 million (ZAR5 458 million) in the form
of a commitment to fund 75% of Talisman’s 50% portion of certain
future development costs to further develop both the Farrell
Creek and Cypress A assets in terms of a joint development plan
until such time that the aggregate purchase consideration has
been paid in full.

On 1 March 2011, the suspensive conditions relating to the
acquisition of the Farrell Creek assets were fulfilled and the
transaction was completed. We therefore included our first share
of production from the Farrell Creek shale gas operations in the
latter part of the third quarter.

The development of the Farrell Creek operations is progressing
according to the long-term production plan. Talisman currently
has nine rigs operating in the area and plans to mobilise a tenth
soon. This will add momentum to the drilling campaign and will
increase the well inventory for the upcoming well stimulation
campaign. Together with our partners, we are on track to increase
the capacity of our operations to above 200 million standard
cubic feet per day by the end of this calendar year.

With these two shale gas acquisitions adding more than
10 trillion standard cubic feet of contingent resources to
Sasol’s upstream portfolio, Sasol and Talisman have commenced
with a feasibility study on a gas-to-liquids facility in Western
Canada.

SPI advances global exploration activities

Over the past eight months Sasol Petroleum International (SPI)
has stepped up its global exploration and appraisal activities
and participated in drilling campaigns in Papua New Guinea (PNG),
Mozambique and Australia. In this campaign, SPI participated in
the drilling of four exploration wells: Awapa-1 in Papua New
Guinea (SPI operated, cost share 51%), North Save-1 and Falcao-1
in Mozambique (SPI operated, cost share 100%) and La Rocca-1 in
Australia (SPI non-operated, fully carried 18% cost share).

Unfortunately all four wells failed to prove the presence of
commercial hydrocarbons, but were drilled on budget and schedule.
This disappointment should be seen in the light of the upstream
success enjoyed in Mozambique over many years.

While active cost-exposure mitigation measures have been taken in
Australia (via the farm-out of 12% equity to Apache for a “cost
carry” arrangement in La Rocca-1), and in PNG (via a farm-out of
10% cost share to Mitsui, pending government approval), current
indications are that dry well costs totalling US$50-55 million
will impact the 2011 financial results.

On the Mozambique appraisal drilling campaign, we are pleased to
announce that the Inhassoro-9Z horizontal well encountered
hydrocarbon-bearing sands on prognosis. A short-term well test
flowed liquid hydrocarbons to surface and at present SPI is
planning to conduct a long-term well test (LWT). In the event
that the LWT proves sustainable economic rates, we will consider
full-scale development.

Update on growth projects

Uzbekistan GTL

In December 2009, Uzbekistan GTL LLC was incorporated. This is a
joint venture between Sasol, Petronas and Uzbekneftegaz (UNG),
with each party holding a one-third interest. The purpose of
Uzbekistan GTL LLC is to study the commercial and technical
viability of a GTL plant in Uzbekistan with a nominal capacity of
approximately 38 000 bbl/d. The project is nearing the end of the
feasibility study stage, which represents a key decision
milestone. Petronas has indicated its intention to reduce its
participation to 11%.

Securing project finance and currency convertibility will be key
criteria as we consider whether to move to the next stage.

The GTL project has key strategic importance for Uzbekistan and
enjoys the continued support of that government. Sasol and UNG
are currently reviewing the implications of Petronas’s intention
to reduce its shareholding in the joint venture. We expect to
make a decision on the next phase of the project in the second
half of the 2011 calendar year.

India CTL

In February 2009, the Indian Government awarded the North of
Arkhapal coal block in Orissa province (which contains an
estimated 1,5 billion tons of coal) to Strategic Energy
Technology Systems Private Limited (SETSPL), for the purpose of
developing a coal-to-liquids (CTL) plant. SETSPL is a 50:50 joint
venture between Sasol and the Tata Group.

In January 2010, SETSPL launched a pre-feasibility study into
developing a plant with capacity of 90 000 bbl/d, some 200
kilometres from the coast in Talcher, Orissa. The study is
progressing well and a drilling programme to verify coal quality
assumptions is currently being executed to enable decision making
to progress to the next stage.

Improved market conditions, solid operational performance and
cost containment to benefit operating profit in FY 2011

Although Sasol Synfuels achieved an exceptional production
performance in the third quarter, constraints on plant
availability in the fourth quarter will make it difficult to
achieve our full year target of 7,2 million tons of production.
We therefore believe that, at this stage, 7,1 million tons is a
more realistic target for the full year. Oryx GTL remains on
track to achieve a full year utilisation rate of between 80% and
90% of nameplate capacity. Arya Sasol Polymers is expected to
achieve a full year average utilisation rate of approximately 80%
for the ethane cracker as well as the two downstream polyethylene
plants.

Sasol is confident it will meet its full year expectation of an
overall solid operational performance and contain costs to within
inflationary levels. Oil prices are expected to remain firm, but
currencies - to which our earnings are particularly sensitive -
remain volatile. This, as well as any adjustments that may arise
from our year-end closure process, would determine whether we
will issue a trading statement to the market as required in terms
of the JSE Listings Requirements.

Sasol’s results for the 12 months to 30 June 2011 will be
released on Monday, 12 September 2011. The forecast financial
information appearing in this update has not been reviewed or
reported on by Sasol’s external auditors.

Best regards,
