CHANGE IN DIRECTORATE – APPOINTMENT OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

The Board of Directors of Control Instruments has much pleasure in announcing the
appointment of Mr. Harry Coetzee as a non-executive director to the Group’s Board of
Directors, with effect from 2 August 2012.

Mr. Coetzee has been appointed to represent Kanthu Nkhama Automotive (Proprietary)
Limited, the empowerment company that acquired 25.1% of the total number of Control
Instruments shares in issue in June 2012. Mr. Coetzee has appointed Mr. Stephen
Smithyman as his alternate director.

Harry Coetzee recently retired as Group Chief Executive of the Aberdare Cables Group, a
position he held from August 2007. Prior to that he was Group Chief Executive of
Powertech IST Holdings for six years. Other positions he has held include managing director
of Toyota SA Manufacturing; managing director of Bosal Afrika (Pty) Limited; and executive
director of Dorbyl Limited, TOSA division.

Mr. Coetzee’s diverse experience at operational and Board levels will add significant value to
the Group’s Board. This will be particularly beneficial to Control Instruments as it changes its
focus to become a business focused primarily on the South African and sub-Saharan African
automotive market.
