Update on extraordinary general meeting and withdrawal of cautionary announcement Group Five Limited (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number: 1969/000032/06) Share code: GRF ISIN: ZAE000027405 ("Group Five” or "the Company" or "the Group") UPDATE ON EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING AND WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT The Board of directors of Group Five (the “Board”) wishes to provide an update on the request from a major shareholder to call an extraordinary general meeting. As outlined in the SENS announcements released on 18 May and 29 May 2017, the Company has been notified by its shareholder, Allan Gray, that it seeks to call an extraordinary general meeting (“EGM”) to reconstitute the Board. Engagements with Allan Gray in an attempt to address its concerns have unfortunately been unsuccessful. The Company therefore advises that an EGM of shareholders has been scheduled for Monday, 24 July 2017. The relevant notice of the EGM and form of proxy for voting will be issued by no later than Friday, 23 June 2017. Shareholders are accordingly advised that they no longer need to exercise caution when dealing in the Company's securities. A further announcement setting out full details of the EGM of shareholders will be released on Friday, 23 June 2017.
