  DEALINGS BY EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS, PRESCRIBED OFFICERS AND COMPANY SECRETARY

  In accordance with paragraph 3.63 of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, shareholders are advised
  that the following ordinary shares have been awarded to executive directors, prescribed officers and the
  company secretary of Absa Group:

  1.     Absa Group Share Incentive Plan (SIP) – Share Incentive Plan Performance Award/s (SIPP)

  The Share Incentive Plan (“SIP”) Long-Term Performance Award is designed to incentivise long-term
  performance with vesting of awards, subject to fulfilment of a combination of financial and non-financial
  Absa Group performance targets (as disclosed in the Group’s Remuneration Report for 2022) measured
  over a three-year performance period. Award will vest on or around the third anniversary of the grant date,
  subject to the achievement of the performance targets, and continued employment requirements, as set
  out in the SIP rules. Dividend equivalents may be added to the Awards at the vesting of an Award in terms
  of the Share Incentive Plan Rules and will be paid to the extent that the shares vest.

  The number of shares under the Award was fixed with reference to the 20-day volume-weighted average
  price preceding the grant date (being 3 April 2022). The Awards were granted as set out in the table below,
  and have since been accepted on the date indicated below.

  Awards at the vesting of a Deferred Award tranche. The Deferred Award is subject to continued
  employment at date of vesting.
