Further update on Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (“B-BBEE”) annual compliance report ELLIES HOLDINGS LIMITED (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number: 2007/007084/06) JSE share code: ELI ISIN: ZAE000103081 (“Ellies” or “the Company”) FURTHER UPDATE ON BROAD-BASED BLACK ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT (“B-BBEE”) ANNUAL COMPLIANCE REPORT Shareholders are referred to the announcement published on 6 September 2019 wherein the Company advised that the submission of the B-BBEE annual compliance report to the B-BBEE Commission would take place by the end of September 2019. Shareholders are advised that the B-BBEE verification process has been completed, however the Company has appealed the outcome of the verification results. Ellies is of the belief that some of the B-BBEE elements has been incorrectly interpreted and Ellies is therefore not in a position to submit its B-BBEE compliance report to the B-BBEE Commission at this stage. The formal appeal process will be concluded within 21 days and it is expected that the Company will be in a position to submit the B-BBEE compliance report to the B-BBEE Commission before the end of October 2019 and a further announcement will be made in due course. 30 September 2019 Sponsor Java Capital Date: 30/09/2019 05:00:00 Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
