DEALINGS IN SECURITIES BY DIRECTORS, PRESCRIBED OFFICERS, THE COMPANY SECRETARY AND THE JSE LTIS 2018 TRUST

The JSE LTIS 2018 Trust ("Trust") has acquired 494 170 JSE ordinary shares in the open market on behalf of executive directors, members of the executive committee, the Company Secretary and senior members of staff ("LTIS 2018 participants") to fulfil share awards granted in March 2020 to these staff under the JSE's Long-Term Incentive Scheme ("LTIS 2018").

These ordinary shares are held in trust and are restricted until all vesting criteria are fulfilled whereupon the shares vest. To the extent that the vesting criteria are not fulfilled the share awards are forfeited.

The vesting of these restricted JSE ordinary shares is subject to -

  1. the JSE achieving specified corporate performance targets over the measurement period; and
  2. a LTIS 2018 participant remaining in the employ of the JSE for the vesting term (collectively "the vesting criteria").

These JSE ordinary shares were acquired on-market, with prior clearance, at a volume-weighted average price of R102.7343 per ordinary share. The total transaction value amounted to R50 768 209.03. The daily high, low and volume-weighted average for the various transactions were -
