Appointment of Danie Meintjes as designated Non-executive Director for engagement with the
Company's workforce

The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Danie Meintjes as designated Non-
executive Director for engagement with the Company's workforce, in line with the provisions of the UK
Corporate Governance Code (July 2018), with effect from 1 April 2019. Danie retired as Chief
Executive Officer ("CEO") on 1 June 2018 and continues to serve as a Non-executive Director.

Dr Edwin Hertzog, Group Chairman, said:

"I am pleased to announce that Danie Meintjes has been appointed as the designated Non-executive
Director for engagement with the Company's workforce. As the former Group CEO and with his prior
experience as Divisional HR Executive, Danie was closely involved with the Company's approach to
engaging with, investing in and rewarding our people. With his wealth of knowledge and experience
gained in different capacities over 30 years at Mediclinic, Danie is extremely well-positioned to
engage effectively with our people. The Board of Directors welcomes Danie’s appointment to this role
and thanks him for taking on this additional responsibility".

Danie Meintjes said:

"I am delighted to be taking on this important role with specific responsibility for Mediclinic’s
workforce. Taking proper account of our peoples’ interests, alongside those of other stakeholders, is
an important part of our Board culture, and this will be strengthened further by creating a specific
responsibility for workforce engagement on the Board, which I feel well-equipped to fulfil, given my
many years of involvement with the Company".
