1 010 cents per share (ordinary dividend). The final ordinary dividend is payable on 13 May 2024 to

profits generated during the year ended 31 December 2023 and has been declared from income
reserves. The final ordinary dividend is subject to dividend withholding tax at a rate of 20% for all
shareholders who are not exempt from or do not qualify for a reduced rate of dividend withholding tax
