The board extends its sincere gratitude to Kgomotso and John for their exemplary leadership and immense contribution during their tenure as non-executive directors and committee chairman of the company.

Atedo Peterside will complete his ninth year in office as a director of the company on 22 August 2023, resulting in his reclassification in terms of the South African Reserve Bank Prudential Authority's Directive as not being independent with effect from 23 August 2023. Considering his imminent reclassification, the board agreed to withdraw Atedo's nomination as a member standing for re-election for the Group Audit Committee and therefore, resolution 2.5 was withdrawn at the AGM. Accordingly, Atedo Peterside ceased to be a member of the Group and SBSA Audit Committees effective 12 June 2023.
