JOINT ANNOUNCEMENT - UPDATE RELATING TO SIL´S ACQUISITION OF A MATERIAL SHAREHOLDING IN
GPI SLOTS PROPRIETARY LIMITED ("GPI SLOTS") FROM GPI

SIL and GPI shareholders are referred to the circulars issued by SIL and GPI to their respective shareholders
on 21 July 2014, detailing the agreement reached between SIL and GPI in terms of which SIL agreed to
acquire, on a phased investment basis, up to a 70% equity interest in GPI Slots, as well as to the joint
announcement released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 5 April 2016 wherein shareholders were
advised that SIL had acquired up to a 50.1% equity interest in GPI Slots.

SIL and GPI are now pleased to announce that all the outstanding conditions precedent to the acquisition
by SIL of a further 19.9% equity interest in GPI Slots have been fulfilled and, accordingly this acquisition
has been implemented.

The acquisition consideration was based on an equity value of GPI Slots, determined by applying a 7.5
times EBITDA multiple to the actual GPI Slots EBITDA for the year ended 30 June 2016. The acquisition
consideration payable by SIL for the 19.9% equity interest in GPI Slots equaled R262.1 million.

This latest acquisition results in SIL’s interest in GPI Slots increasing to 70%, with GPI retaining a 30%
interest. The implementation of this acquisition concludes SIL’s phased investment into GPI Slots.
