Net1 finalizes recovery of additional SASSA implementation costs Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. Registered in the state of Florida, USA (IRS Employer Identification No. 98-0171860) Nasdaq share code: UEPS JSE share code: NT1 ISIN: US64107N2062 (“Net1” or “the Company”) Net1 finalizes recovery of additional SASSA implementation costs Johannesburg – June 6, 2014 - Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UEPS; JSE: NT1) today announced that it has received approximately ZAR 275 million (or $25.7 million at prevailing exchange rates) from the South African Social Security Agency (“SASSA”), related to the recovery of additional implementation costs incurred during the beneficiary re- registration process in fiscal 2012 and 2013. At the time, SASSA requested Net1 to biometrically register all social grant beneficiaries (including all child beneficiaries), in addition to the grant recipients who were issued with the SASSA-branded UEPS/EMV smart cards. As a result, Net1 performed approximately 11 million additional registrations that did not form part of its monthly service fee. After an independent verification process, SASSA agreed to pay the ZAR 275 million as full settlement of the additional costs incurred. The decision to re-register all 21 million social grant beneficiaries has enabled SASSA, through the use of Net1’s biometric search engine and data analysis tools, to identify and remove any duplicate, invalid and non-existent grant recipients from the grant system. The saving to the South African fiscus to date amounts to approximately ZAR 3 billion per annum due to the elimination of these grants.
