   the commencement of the AGM. As a result of the decision to withdraw these ordinary resolutions,

2. Ordinary Resolution Number 2.1 – Ratification of appointment of director – was withdrawn prior to the
   commencement of the AGM, and Ms Prabashinee Moodley retired from the Board from today, 6
   December 2018. The Board wishes Ms Moodley well and thanks her for her service to the Company.

3. Ordinary Resolution Number 4.1 – The appointment of the Audit Committee for the ensuing year – Dean
   Hyde – was withdrawn prior to the commencement of the AGM and subsequent to the withdrawal of
   Ordinary Resolution 1.1.


Following the retirement of Messrs Hyde, Getz and Madders, the Board has approved a restructuring of the
Board committees:

Ms Dineo Molefe was elected to serve as the Chairperson of the Audit Committee and has also been
appointed as a member of the Remuneration Committee.
Mr Mike Bosman has been appointed as a member of the Audit Committee and the Nominations Committee.
Mr Mntungwa Morojele has been appointed as a member of the Risk Committee and the Chairperson of
