MARKET RELEASE

Notification in terms of Section 45(5) of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 - Approval of intercompany funding to facilitate conversion of a USD200,000 convertible bond issued by Sibanye Gold Limited

Sibanye Gold Limited (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) (the "Issuer") is the issuer of the USD450,000,000 1.875 per cent convertible bonds due 2023 (current principal value of USD384,000,000 outstanding) (the "Bonds"). Holders of outstanding Bonds (the "Bondholders") are entitled, under the terms and conditions of the Bonds (the "Bond Terms") to each exercise a right to convert the Bonds into ordinary shares of the Company (the "Conversion Rights") whether on the redemption of the Bonds by the Issuer or otherwise on a voluntary basis from time to time by the issue of a conversion notice to the Issuer.

Pursuant to the corporate reorganisation which was implemented in early 2020, the Company became a guarantor in relation to the conversion and settlement of the Bonds by the Issuer and furthermore undertook to deliver its shares to settle the Issuer's obligations under the Bond Terms. To facilitate this, the Company has entered into a loan facility agreement with the Issuer, in terms of which it will fund any share issues required to settle a conversion event under the Bonds (the "Loan Facility Agreement").

Following receipt of a valid conversion notice in respect of USD200,000 of the Bonds, the Company will issue 127,967 ordinary shares to the Bondholder under the Bond Terms to settle this conversion event and the relevant Bond will be cancelled.

Notice is hereby given that, in terms of the provisions of Section 45(5) of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 (the "Companies Act"), and pursuant to the special resolution passed at the general meeting of the Company held on 26 May 2020, the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") has adopted resolutions to provide financial assistance to the Issuer by advancing loan funding to the Issuer in terms of the Loan Facility Agreement, as required to settle conversion events under the Bonds from time to time, including pursuant to the voluntary conversion notice received. This loan funding constitutes direct and/or indirect financial assistance in terms of the provisions of Section 45(2) of the Companies Act.

Having considered all reasonable financial circumstances of the Company in terms of and pursuant to the provisions of Section 45 as read with Section 4 of the Companies Act, the Board satisfied itself that:

• • immediately after providing the financial assistance referred to above, the Company would satisfy the solvency and liquidity test contemplated in Section 4 of the Companies Act

• • all relevant conditions and restrictions relating to the granting of such financial assistance by the Company contained in the Company's memorandum of incorporation are satisfied

• • the terms and conditions on which such financial assistance is to be given are fair and reasonable to the Company
