CHANGES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Mr S Young and Ms CF Hendricks did not make themselves available for re-election at the
AGM and voluntary elected to step off the board (“the Board”) and accordingly the requisite
resolutions were withdrawn.

Furthermore, the Board wishes to advise that Ms N Gamieldien voluntary elected to step off
the Board as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company but will continue in a senior executive
role.

Accordingly, in compliance with paragraph 3.59(b) of the JSE Listings Requirements, the
Company advises that Mr S Young, Ms CF Hendricks and Ms N Gamieldien were not available
for re-election to the Board and are therefore no longer directors to the Board with effect from
22 January 2019.
The Board wishes to thank Mr Young, Ms Hendricks and Ms Gamieldien for their tenure on
the Board and its Committees. The Board wishes to take this opportunity of wishing Mr Young
and Ms Hendricks all of the very best and success going forward.

The Board further advises that with effect from 22 January 2019, Mr H Plaatjes has taken up
the role of Chief Executive Officer, Mr IT Bundo has been appointed to the Board of Directors
as an executive in the capacity of Chief Financial Officer, Mr AM Salie has been appointed
as an executive in the capacity of Chief Investment Officer and Mr I Amod has been appointed
as an independent non-executive director.

Messrs Bundo and Salie both hold a Bachelor of Commerce Degree in Accounting and are
both chartered accountants.

In addition, the Board further wishes to advise that Mrs AB Amod has been appointed to the
Audit and Risk Committee effective 22 January 2019.

The Board welcomes Messrs Bundo, Salie and Amod and looks forward to their contribution
to the Company.
