(“MiX Telematics” or “the Company”)


FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT AND SALIENT DATES REGARDING THE SPECIFIC ISSUE OF SHARES FOR CASH


Successful pricing of specific issue

With reference to the circular dated 3 July 2013 (the “circular”) posted to shareholders and the announcements
released over SENS on each of 23 July 2013 and 1 August 2013, the board of directors of MiX Telematics is pleased
to announce the pricing of its specific issue of 110 000 000 ordinary shares to Bank of New York Mellon for cash and
its offering of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), which are to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange in the
United States.

Terms defined in the circular shall bear the same meaning in this announcement.

4 400 000 ADSs (each representing 25 ordinary shares in the Company) will be placed with foreign investors at an
issue price of US$16.00 each which equates to a specific issue price per new MiX Telematics share of R6.33 (using a
Rand:US Dollar exchange rate of R9.8878 to US$1, being the exchange rate published by the South African Reserve
Bank as at 8 August 2013). The ADS placement was fully underwritten and the underwriters’ commission equates to
7% of the issue price.

Pro forma financial effects

The issue price of R6.33 per MiX Telematics share represents a premium of 84.0% to the 30 day volume weighted
average traded price of MiX Telematics shares to 21 June 2013, being the last practicable date prior to the finalisation
of the circular.

The pro forma financial effects of the specific issue of shares for cash on MiX Telematics’ net asset value and net
tangible asset value at 31 March 2013 and on earnings, diluted earnings and headline and diluted headline earnings per
share for the year ended 31 March 2013 are set out below.

The pro forma financial effects are the responsibility of the directors of MiX Telematics and have been prepared for
illustrative purposes only, to provide information on how the specific issue of shares for cash would have impacted on
the financial position of MiX Telematics at 31 March 2013 and on the historical financial results of MiX Telematics
for the year ended 31 March 2013 based on the assumptions in the notes to the table below.

The pro forma financial effects information is for illustrative purposes only and may not give a fair reflection of MiX
Telematics’ financial position and results of operations subsequent to the specific issue of shares for cash.
