(“Ansys” or “the Company”)
Name change, posting of circular and notice of general meeting
Ansys Limited Group has been implementing a bold new market repositioning and growth strategy over the past
two years. The company identified the evolving technological landscape to which it must adapt, as a driver for
continuous change in the company, in order to remain competitive. The company recognises the need to
constantly move, to reinvent itself and to create new solutions.
As a consequence of the growth strategy, and to align the objectives of the various business units within the
Company with a common vision, Ansys embarked on a re-branding exercise. The exercise has lead the board to
decide that the current name no longer reflects the vision of the company, nor the continuing evolving
technological landscape and proposes that the name be changed. This transition requires energy and action,
which can be captured into a single word, Etion, hence the board’s decision to change the name to Etion Limited
(JSE code: ETO).
Ansys has posted a circular to shareholders today regarding the approval of the name change and the approval
of the remuneration for services rendered by non-executive directors. Notice is hereby given that the General
Meeting of the Company will be held on Monday, 11 June 2018 at the company’s office, 85 Regency Drive,
