In accordance with paragraph 3.59 of the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited, the board of directors
of Cognition (“the Board”) hereby notifies its shareholders that the independent non-executive Chairman
of the Company, Mr Ashvin Mancha will step down as Chairman of the Company with effect from 12
