RESULTS OF GENERAL MEETING


1. INTRODUCTION

   Shareholders of Tower are referred to the firm intention announcement published on SENS on
   7 October 2021, and the circular dispatched to shareholders on 25 October 2021 (“Circular”), relating to:

   -   a scheme of arrangement in terms of section 114 of the Companies Act, No. 71 of 2008 to be
       proposed by Tower to its shareholders, and to which RDC will be a party, in terms of which RDC (or
       a nominated RDC group company) shall acquire all of the issued ordinary shares in Tower that RDC
       does not already own, for a purchase consideration of R3.776 per Tower share, on a cum distribution
       basis.

   -   a concurrent, but separate, standby general offer by RDC to Tower shareholders, to acquire their
       Tower shares for the Cash Consideration, which general offer is conditional on, inter alia, (i) the
       Scheme failing to become operative and (ii) a sufficient number of acceptances of the general offer
       being received to result in RDC obtaining control of the majority of the Tower shares in issue; and

   -   the delisting of all Tower shares from the JSE pursuant to the Scheme becoming operative; or the
       potential delisting of all Tower shares from the JSE pursuant to the general offer being implemented
       and the delisting being approved by Tower shareholders

   Tower shareholders are advised that at the general meeting held on Wednesday, 24 November 2021 to
   consider and, if deemed fit, pass the Resolutions required to authorise and approve the Scheme and
   Delisting (“General Meeting”), the Resolutions set out in the notice convening the scheme meeting (which
   were attached to the Circular), were passed on a poll by the requisite majorities (being those set out in
   the notice convening the scheme meeting in respect of each resolution).

   Capitalised terms used in this announcement that are not otherwise defined, bear the meaning ascribed
   to them in the Circular.
