CHANGE STATEMENT
Shareholders are further advised that RH Bophelo’s Integrated Annual Report, incorporating the audited
Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 29 February 2020 has been published and is available on the
Company’s website: https://www.rhbophelo.co.za/investment/for-our-investors, and contains modifications
to the reviewed results which were announced on SENS on 31 July 2020. The annual financial statements were
audited by the Company’s auditors, Deloitte & Touche and their unmodified report which includes Key Audit
Matters is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office.

2. BROAD-BASED BLACK ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT ACT (“THE ACT”): ANNUAL COMPLIANCE
REPORT
In accordance with paragraph 16.20 (g) and Appendix 1 to Section 11 of the JSE Listing Requirements, notice
is hereby given that the Company’s annual compliance report in terms of section 13G(2) of the Act has been
published and is available on the Company’s website: https://www.rhbophelo.co.za/investment/for-our-
investors
3. CHANGE IN AUDITORS
The Board wishes to inform shareholders that, following a comprehensive tender process, Mazars South Africa,
with Rochelle Murugan as the designated registered audit partner, has been nominated as the new external
auditor effective 31 August 2020. This appointment is subject to shareholders’ approval at the AGM scheduled
for 30 September 2020. Consequently, Deloitte & Touche will not be re-appointed as the Company’s external
auditor and has therefore resigned on 31 August 2020.
The change in the auditor was due mainly to less than desirable commercial value following internal
discussions about the size, nature and economic considerations with Deloitte South Africa; as well as Deloitte’s
view that Companies structured in the construct of RH Bophelo would not, in their experience, be able to
implement financial reporting systems that meet the kind of expectations they have for their listed clients.
RH Bophelo thanks Deloitte & Touche for their services to the Group, and wishes them well in their future
engagements.
