For investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in South Africa, the Offer Price has been converted into South African rand at today's WM/Reuters 5:00 a.m. (London) FX fixing rates, resulting in an Offer Price for investors in South Africa of 25.88 South African rand per Ordinary Share.

Each of Merrill Lynch International, Goldman Sachs International, J.P. Morgan Securities plc (which conducts its UK investment banking activities under the marketing name J.P. Morgan Cazenove) (together, the 'Joint Global Coordinators'), is authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated in the United Kingdom by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority. BNP PARIBAS (and together with the Joint Global Coordinators, the 'Joint Bookrunners') is lead supervised by the European Central Bank ('ECB') and the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution ('ACPR'). BNP Paribas London Branch is authorised by the ECB, the ACPR and the PRA and subject to limited regulation by the FCA and PRA. Avior Capital Markets (Pty) Limited (the 'Lead Manager' and together with the Joint Bookrunners, the 'Underwriters') is authorised by the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in South Africa. Merrill Lynch South Africa Proprietary Limited ('Merrill Lynch SA') is regulated by the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, the South African Reserve Bank and the Financial Services Board of South Africa. Each of the Underwriters and Merrill Lynch SA (together, the 'Banks') is acting exclusively for the Company and no one else in connection with Admission and the Global Offer. None of the Banks will regard any other person (whether or not a recipient of this announcement) as a client in relation to the Global Offer and will not be responsible to anyone other than the Company for providing the protections afforded to their respective clients or for the giving of advice in relation to the Global Offer, the contents of this announcement or any transaction, matter, or arrangement referred to herein.

In connection with the Global Offer, each of the Banks and any of their respective affiliates, may take up a portion of the Shares in the Global Offer as a principal position and in that capacity may retain, purchase or sell for its own account such securities and any Shares or related investments and may offer or sell such Shares or other investments otherwise than in connection with the Global Offer. Accordingly, references in the Prospectus, Q1 Results Supplement and/or the Price Range Supplement to Shares being offered or placed should be read as including any offering or placement of Shares to any of the Banks or any of their respective affiliates acting in such capacity. In addition certain of the Banks or their affiliates may enter into financing arrangements (including swaps or contracts for differences) with investors in connection with which the Banks and any of their affiliates may from time to time acquire, hold or dispose of Shares. None of the Banks intend to disclose the extent of any such investment or transactions otherwise than in accordance with any legal or regulatory obligation to do so.

In connection with the Global Offer, Merrill Lynch International and/or Merrill Lynch SA, as the context requires (the 'Stabilising Manager'), or any of its agents, may (but will be under no obligation to), to the extent permitted by applicable law, over-allot Shares or effect other transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Shares at a higher level than that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. The Stabilising Manager is not required to enter into such transactions and such transactions may be effected on any securities market, over-the-counter market, stock exchange or otherwise and may be undertaken at any time during the period commencing on the date of the commencement of dealings of the Shares on the London Stock Exchange plc and ending no later than the 30th calendar day thereafter. However, there will be no obligation on the Stabilising Manager or any of its agents to effect stabilising transactions and there is no assurance that stabilising transactions will be undertaken. Such stabilisation, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time without prior notice.

Except as required by law or regulation, neither the Stabilising Manager nor any of its agents intends to disclose the extent of any over allotments made and/or stabilisation transactions conducted in relation to the Global Offer.

In connection with the Global Offer, the Stabilising Manager may, for stabilisation purposes, over-allot Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of Shares comprised in the Global Offer (the 'Over-allotment Shares'). For the purposes of allowing the Stabilising Manager to cover short positions resulting from any such overallotments and/or from sales of Shares effected by it during the stabilising period, it is expected that the Selling Shareholder will grant the Stabilising Manager an over-allotment option pursuant to which the Stabilising Manager may purchase or procure purchasers for additional Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of Shares comprised in the Global Offer at the Offer Price (the 'Over-allotment Option'). The Over-allotment Option will be exercisable in whole or in part, upon notice by the Stabilising Manager, at any time on or before the 30th calendar day after the commencement of dealings of the Shares on the London Stock Exchange plc. Any Over-allotment Shares made available pursuant to the Over-allotment Option will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares, including for all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the Shares, will be purchased on the same terms and conditions as the Shares being issued or sold in the Global Offer and will form a single class for all purposes with the other Shares.

Accordingly, apart from the responsibilities and liabilities, if any, which may be imposed on the Banks by FSMA or the regulatory regime established thereunder, each of the Banks and each of their respective affiliates disclaim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all and any liability whether arising in tort, delict, contract or otherwise which they might otherwise be found to have in respect of this announcement or any such statement. No representation or warranty express or implied, is made by any of the Banks or any of their respective affiliates as to the accuracy, completeness, verification or sufficiency of the information set out in this announcement, and nothing in this announcement will be relied upon as a promise or representation in this respect, whether or not to the past or future.

Any investor should only rely on the information in the Prospectus, the Q1 Results Supplement, the Price Range Supplement, the Pricing Statement and in any other prospectus supplements to be issued by the Company in connection with the Global Offer. None of the Company, the Selling Shareholder (as defined in the Prospectus), the Banks or any of their respective representatives, is making any representation other than those contained in the Prospectus, the Q1 Results Supplement, the Price Range Supplement, the Pricing Statement and in any other prospectus supplements to be issued by the Company in connection with the Global Offer and, if given or made, such information or representations must not be relied on as having been so authorised. Neither the delivery of the Prospectus, the Q1 Results Supplement, the Price Range Supplement, the Pricing Statement nor any other prospectus supplements to be issued by the Company in connection with the Global Offer nor Admission nor any subsequent subscription or sale shall, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the affairs of the Company set forth in these documents or that the information in them are correct as of any date subsequent to the date thereof.

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ('MiFID II'); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the 'MiFID II Product Governance Requirements'), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any 'manufacturer' (for the purposes of the Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the 'Target Market Assessment'). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Global Offer. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Underwriters will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
