In accordance with paragraph 4 of Section 1 of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the “UK Code”),
the company notes the votes cast against Resolutions 5, 12 and 15 were greater than 20% of those
exercised in total by the Company’s shareholders. The Board has been engaging with shareholders
and proxy agencies in the lead up to the Meeting and has a good understanding of the concerns of
some of our major shareholders. It is, however, the intention to extend the consultation process and
report to shareholders in line with the requirements of the UK Code.

Similarly, the JSE Listings Requirements require that, as the non-binding advisory vote on the
Remuneration policy of the Company, was voted against by 25% or more of the votes exercised by the
Company’s shareholders, the Company extends an invitation to shareholders to engage with the
Company. Should shareholders wish to contact the Company with any concerns, they are requested
to send their concerns in writing to the Company Secretary at abennett@siriusfacilities.com, by not
later than close of business on Monday, 12 August 2019. Sirius will address those concerns in its
consultation process identified above.

The full text of the resolutions can be found in the Investor Relations section of the Company website,
