CHANGE IN THE DIVIDEND WITHHOLDING TAX RATE


Shareholders are referred to Resilient’s condensed unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for the six
months ended 31 December 2016 and the dividend tax treatment and salient dates announcements published on
SENS on 2 February 2017, wherein shareholders were advised of the dividend of 270.22 cents per share for the six
months ended 31 December 2016.

Following the Budget Speech delivered by the Minister of Finance, Pravin Gordhan, on 22 February 2017 wherein
the dividends withholding tax rate was increased from 15% to 20%, the draft Rates and Monetary Amounts and
Amendment of Revenue Laws Bill has amended section 64E of the Income Tax Act No. 58 of 1962 and the
increased dividends withholding tax of 20% applies in respect of any dividend paid on or after 22 February 2017.

Non-resident shareholders are accordingly advised that the net dividend amount due to non-resident shareholders,
unless the rate is reduced in terms of any applicable agreement for the avoidance of double taxation (“DTA”)
between South Africa and the country of residence of the shareholder, is 216.17600 cents per share and not
229.68700 cents per share as previously disclosed. The tax position in respect of the dividend received by or accrued
to South African tax residents remains unchanged.

The salient dates and times and other information provided in respect of the dividend declaration announced on
2 February 2017 remain unchanged.
