8.7.1      Protocol Covid-19
                        The Board noted that a woman at the architect firm had visited the
                        SAPPO office and was afterwards diagnosed with Covid-19, without
                        symptoms.  The SAPPO office was notified.

                        Enquiries were made as to how to handle the situation correctly.
                        The protocol was followed to address any risks.  The office was not
                        closed  down  as notification of the case was  received before  a
                        weekend, which meant no-one was in the office for 48 hours.

                        SAPPO took into account those who were at higher risk, for example
                        Anne Calitz and Monique Groenewald, who were asked to work
                        from home for a certain period.  The office was doing well under the
                        circumstances.  All staff members have notebooks and access to
                        data and can therefore work remotely.

                        The Board noted that Johann Kotzé was doing a course through the
                        University of Stellenbosch and was  using  SAPPO  as  object  of his
                        studies.  SAPPO was doing well from corporate governance side.

                  8.8  CEO Summary

                        8.8.1      Report back to National Council
                        Johann Kotzé reminded the Board members that although the AGM
                        had been  postponed,  a meeting  with the  National Council
                        members had to take place during 2020.

                        He proposed that  2 webinars  be  held to empower  the pork
                        producer with information.

                        The first 60-minute webinar will not be interactive, and the focus will
                        be on the National Council and producers.  The financial statements
                        and the budget for 2021 will be presented.  Visuals of the past year’s
                        activities will also be presented.

                        The financial statements will be circulated to the National Council.
                        If they have any questions, they can table them before the webinar.
                        The questions will  then be  addressed in the pre-recording of  the
                        presentation.

                        The first webinar will be conducted on 2 September and the second
                        on 3 September, with three speakers providing information to the
                        producers.
