Withdrawal of cautionary announcement

Shareholders are referred to the cautionary contained in the Announcement relating to information
on the consolidated value of the net assets and the profit before tax of ATS that was not available for
inclusion at the time of the Announcement.


Shareholders are now advised that the consolidated value of the net assets of ATS at
31 December 2020 amounted to R416,2 million. The profit after tax for the year ended
31 December 2020 attributable to ATS was R16,1 million, and not AED416,2 million and AED16,1
million respectively, as erroneously stated in paragraph 5.5 of the Circular. This represents the 100%
value of the ATS group.


The cautionary is hereby withdrawn and caution is no longer required to be exercised by Shareholders
when dealing in the company’s securities.
