(Vancouver/Johannesburg) Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (PTM:TSX; PLG:NYSE American) (“Platinum Group”, “PTM” or the “Company”) announces that Hosken Consolidated Investments Limited (“HCI”) has agreed to make a strategic investment in the Company which will result in HCI owning, through a subsidiary, 10.0% of PTM’s issued and outstanding shares.  HCI has entered into a subscription agreement with the Company, on a private placement basis, for the purchase of 16,767,778 units (the “Units”) at a price of US$0.19 per unit for gross proceeds of US$3,185,878 (the “Private Placement”).  Each Unit will consist of one common share and one-half common share purchase warrant, with each full common share purchase warrant allowing HCI to purchase one further common share of the Company at a price of US$0.24 per share for a period of three years from the date of closing of the Private Placement.

HCI is a South African black empowerment investment holding company with a US$1.1 billion market capitalization, listed on the JSE Securities Exchange.  HCI’s major shareholder is the Southern African Clothing and Textile Workers’ Union.  The group is involved in a diverse group of investments including hotel and leisure; interactive gaming; media and broadcasting; transport; mining; clothing; and properties.

Closing of the Private Placement is subject to customary closing conditions, including stock exchange approvals.  Pursuant to the subscription agreement and upon completion of the Private Placement, HCI will be entitled to nominate one person to be appointed to the board of directors of the Company and will have a right to participate in future equity financings of the Company to maintain approximately a 10.0% interest.

HCI’s nominee to the board of directors of Platinum Group will be Mr. John Anthony Copelyn, B.A. Hons, B.Proc., Chief Executive Officer of HCI.  Mr. Copelyn joined HCI in 1997.  Prior to this he was a member of the South African parliament and general secretary of the Southern African Clothing and Textile Workers’ Union. He is also Chairman of E Media Holdings Ltd., Tsogo Sun Holdings Ltd., Deneb Investments Ltd. and Niveus Investments Ltd.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Private Placement: (i) for repayment of debt due to Liberty Metals & Mining Holdings, LLC; and (ii) as permitted, for general corporate and working capital purposes.  A finder’s fee amounting to US$191,153 is to be paid in connection with the Private Placement.

Securities purchased by HCI pursuant to the Private Placement may not be traded for a period of four months plus one day from the closing of the Private Placement. The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States

The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements by the Company are not guarantees of future results or performance and that actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including the inability to satisfy the closing conditions for the Private Placement; flexibility in the use of proceeds; delays in receipt of, or the inability to receive, the remaining proceeds of the Maseve Investments 11 (Pty) Ltd. (“Maseve”) sale transaction or to realize on the proceeds thereof; additional financing requirements and the uncertainty of future financing; the Company’s history of losses; the Company’s inability to generate sufficient cash flow or raise sufficient additional capital to make payment on its indebtedness, and to comply with the terms of such indebtedness; the Company’s secured loan facility (the “LMM Facility”) with Liberty Metals & Mining Holdings, LLC (“LMM”) is, and any new indebtedness may be, secured and the Company has pledged its shares of PTM RSA, and PTM RSA has pledged its shares of Waterberg JV Resources (Pty) Limited
