DEMATERIALISATION OF SHARES IN THE CENTRAL SECURITIES DEPOSITORY SYSTEM FOR
SHAREHOLDERS ON THE BOTSWANA STOCK EXCHANGE

Shareholders are referred to the Directive 1 of 2014 from Non-Bank Financial Institutions Regulatory
Authority (NBFIRA) which requires shareholders to open accounts in the Central Depository Company
of Botswana Limited (“CSDB”) and dematerialize their holdings through the process of depositing shares
in the Central Securities Depository (“CSD”) System.

All shareholders on the Botswana Stock Exchange who are still holding their physical share certificates
must dematerialize their shares to the below brokers who are registered with the CSDB to open an
account. Shareholders must also provide their banking details to be used for the purpose of distributing
payments directly into their bank account.

Dematerialization also makes it easier for CSDB to comply with the Know-your-Client (KYC) process as
required by Financial Intelligence Agency (FIA) Act.

Shareholders with shares that have been dematerialized and paid by cheque should liaise with their
broker to provide the bank account details as per the Bank of Botswana and Bankers Association of
Botswana notification that cheques are being discontinued as of 31st December 2023.
The following are the brokers to liaise with:
