                                    STATES

1.      Final Increased Cash Offer

Prosus N.V. (Prosus) is pleased to announce the terms of an increased and final cash offer by its
wholly-owned indirect subsidiary MIH Food Delivery Holdings B.V. (MIH) for the entire issued and to be
issued share capital of Just Eat plc (Just Eat) (the Final Increased Offer).

Under the terms of the Final Increased Offer, Just Eat Shareholders will be entitled to receive:

                             800 pence in cash for each Just Eat Share

The terms of the Final Increased Offer value the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital
of Just Eat at approximately £5.5 billion and represent a premium of approximately:

•       36 per cent. to the Closing Price of 589 pence per Just Eat Share on 21 October 2019 (being
        the last Business Day before the date of the Offer Announcement);

•       35 per cent. to the value of the Takeaway.com Offer of 594 pence per Just Eat Share based
        on Takeaway.com’s Closing Price of €71.00 on 21 October 2019 (being the last Business Day
        before the date of the Offer Announcement); and

•       26 per cent. to the Closing Price of 636 pence per Just Eat Share on 26 July (being the last
        Business Day before the commencement of the Offer Period).

The financial terms of the Final Increased Offer are final and will not be increased. The closing date of
the Final Increased Offer has been extended to 1.00 p.m. on 10 January 2020 and will not be extended
beyond that time (save with Panel consent).

Save as set out in this announcement, the Final Increased Offer is subject to the same terms and
conditions as the Increased Offer. The Final Increased Offer is a revision to the Increased Offer and
should be construed accordingly.

Just Eat Shareholders are urged to accept the Final Increased Offer as soon as possible and, in
any event, by no later than 1.00 p.m. (London time) 10 January 2020.

Commenting on the Final Increased Offer, Bob van Dijk, the Group CEO of Prosus said:

“We have been very clear from the beginning about our ambition to build the world’s leading Food
Delivery business. The acquisition of Just Eat, which brings its portfolio of good market positions, would
be a meaningful step in realising this goal. Following extensive discussions with Just Eat’s and Prosus’s
shareholders, we have decided to make a final increase in our cash offer to 800p per share. This level
delivers outstanding and certain value to Just Eat shareholders while also providing an appropriate
return for our own shareholders, given strong levels of competition and significant investment required
to reinvigorate growth. We urge Just Eat shareholders to accept this final offer and bring the uncertainty
around Just Eat’s future to a close.”

2.      MIH seeking to acquire Just Eat Shares

MIH is seeking to make market purchases of Just Eat Shares at a price of up to 800 pence per share.

Eligible Just Eat Shareholders, who are institutional investors outside the United States, interested in
selling their shares at the price of up to 800 pence per Just Eat Share should contact J.P. Morgan
Cazenove / Morgan Stanley (using their normal sales and trading contacts), who have authority from
Prosus and MIH to purchase Just Eat Shares other than pursuant to the Offer such as in the open
market or through privately negotiated purchases. Such purchases shall comply with the City Code, the
rules of the London Stock Exchange and Rule 14e-5(b) under the US Exchange Act. Information about
such purchases will be disclosed as and if required by applicable securities laws. Retail investors should
contact their broker.

Due to regulatory requirements, MIH is unable to purchase Just Eat Shares from shareholders
incorporated or located in the United States, or where the Just Eat Shares would be sold from the United
States.

3.      Overview of the Final Increased Offer

Following further investor engagement, and in the context of strong equity market performance and
consolidation in the sector since Prosus’s Increased Offer, Prosus is today pleased to announce a Final
Increased Offer of 800 pence in cash per Just Eat Share.

The Final Increased Offer represents a compelling proposition for Just Eat Shareholders with the
certainty of a cash exit at a substantial premium to Just Eat’s unaffected share price and to the value
of the Takeaway.com Offer.

The Final Increased Offer represents a premium of 36 per cent to Just Eat’s Closing Price on 21 October
2019 (the last Business Day before the date of the Prosus Offer Announcement), which already includes
a premium from the Takeaway.com’s Offer and which Prosus believes compares favourably with
precedent premia for such transactions in a UK context.

While Prosus believes Just Eat is an attractive business with strong long-term potential, its historically
strong market positions are being eroded by intensifying competition. Prosus is the right owner for Just
Eat and intends to provide the necessary investment in product, technology, marketing and own-
delivery capabilities to enable Just Eat to shift to an own-delivery focused hybrid model, protect its
market positions, and capitalise on its long-term opportunity. Prosus benefits from a long and successful
track record of investing in and building out market-leading hybrid and own-delivery businesses.

The Offer is an important step towards achieving Prosus’s ambition to build the world’s leading Food
Delivery business and is the logical next step for Prosus’s and Just Eat’s partnership in iFood. Prosus
has the conviction and financial resources to help Just Eat achieve its long-term potential, whilst also
targeting an appropriate risk adjusted return on invested capital for Prosus shareholders.

Prosus believes that the proposed combination with Takeaway.com will not address Just Eat’s issues
and carries significant risk for Just Eat Shareholders. In the context of slowing organic growth,
Takeaway.com’s share price is at an all-time high and trading on a revenue multiple 3 times higher than
Just Eat’s own unaffected multiple.

Takeaway.com has limited experience in competing against own-delivery players operating at scale.
Furthermore, Takeaway.com’s management lacks experience of operating own-delivery operations at
scale, and has repeatedly stated that it believes own-delivery to be an inferior business model that
cannot be profitable. Prosus believes Takeaway.com will not be able to support Just Eat in competing
effectively in many of Just Eat’s core markets including the UK where Uber Eats and Deliveroo have
been operating at scale for years with large and growing market share.

Prosus believes that it is the right owner for Just Eat and Prosus’s Final Increased Offer provides
compelling and certain value to Just Eat Shareholders at a further premium to Takeaway.com’s
all-share offer, which comes with significant risk.

Prosus urges Just Eat Shareholders to accept the Final Increased Offer as soon as possible
and, in any event, by no later than 1.00 p.m. (London time) 10 January 2020.

4.      Financing of the Final Increased Offer

The cash consideration payable by MIH pursuant to the Final Increased Offer will be financed: (a) by a
bridge loan agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, BNP Paribas Fortis SA/NV,
Citibank, N.A., London Branch, Citibank, N.A., Jersey Branch, Deutsche Bank Luxembourg S.A.,
Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. and Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.a., Filiale Frankfurt am Main as original
lenders, providing for a term loan bridge facility; and (b) from the existing cash resources of Prosus.

J.P. Morgan Cazenove, as financial adviser to Prosus and MIH, is satisfied that the resources available
to MIH are sufficient to enable it to satisfy in full the cash consideration payable to Just Eat Shareholders
under the terms of the Final Increased Offer.

5.      How to accept the Final Increased Offer

A revised offer document (the Final Increased Offer Document) containing the full terms of, and
conditions to, the Final Increased Offer together with the associated revised form of acceptance (the
Third Form of Acceptance) will be posted to Just Eat Shareholders and be available, subject to certain

Just Eat Shareholders are urged to accept the Final Increased Offer as soon as possible and, in
any event, by no later than 1.00 p.m. (London time) on 10 January 2020.

Just Eat Shareholders who have accepted the Takeaway.com Offer should be aware that if the
Takeaway.com Offer has not become or been declared unconditional as to acceptances by 1.00
p.m. on 1 January 2020, they can withdraw their acceptance of the Takeaway.com Offer and
accept the Final Increased Offer.

6.      Level of acceptances and disclosure of interests in relevant securities

As at 1.00 p.m. on 19 December 2019, MIH had received valid acceptances of the Increased Offer in
respect of 44,718 Just Eat Shares representing approximately 0.0065 per cent. of the current issued
share capital of Just Eat, all of which may count towards the Acceptance Condition. MIH does not own
any Just Eat Shares.

The percentages of Just Eat Shares referred to in this announcement are based on a figure of
682,985,706 Just Eat Shares in issue on 18 December 2019.

Overseas shareholders

The release, publication or distribution of this announcement in, and the availability of the Final
Increased Offer to persons who are residents, citizens or nationals of, jurisdictions other than England
and Wales and the Netherlands may be restricted by law and regulation and therefore any persons into
whose possession this announcement comes who are subject to the laws of any jurisdiction other than

Netherlands, or who are subject to the laws of another jurisdiction, to participate in the Final Increased

of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located. Just Eat Shareholders who are in any doubt

Further details in relation to Just Eat Shareholders who are resident in, ordinarily resident in, or citizens
of, jurisdictions outside England and Wales is contained in the Offer Document dated 11 November
2019.

Notice to US investors

The Final Increased Offer is being made to Just Eat Shareholders resident in the United States in
reliance on, and compliance with, the applicable US tender offer rules, including Section 14(e) of the
US Exchange Act, and Regulation 14E thereunder. The Final Increased Offer is being made in the
United States by MIH and no one else. None of J.P. Morgan Cazenove, Morgan Stanley or any of their
respective affiliates will be making the Final Increased Offer in or outside the United States.

The Final Increased Offer relates to the shares of a UK incorporated company and is subject to
disclosure and other procedural requirements, which are different from certain United States disclosure
and procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, offer timetable, settlement
procedures and timing of payments.

Furthermore, the payment and settlement procedure with respect to the Final Increased Offer will
comply with the relevant United Kingdom rules, which differ from US payment and settlement
procedures, particularly with regard to the date of payment of consideration.

In accordance with normal UK practice and consistent with Rule 14e-5(b) under the US Exchange Act,
MIH, certain affiliated companies and their nominees or brokers (acting as agents) may make certain
purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, shares in Just Eat other than pursuant to the Final
Increased Offer, before or during the period in which the Final Increased Offer remains open for
acceptance (or, if the Final Increased Offer is implemented by way of a Scheme, until the date on which
the Scheme becomes effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn). If such purchases or arrangements
to purchase were to be made they would be made outside the United States either in the open market
at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices and would comply with applicable law,
including, to the extent applicable, the US Exchange Act. Any information about such purchases will be
disclosed as required in the UK and the Unites States, will be reported to a Regulatory Information
Service     and     will    be    available   on     the    London     Stock   Exchange      website    at
www.londonstockexchange.com. In addition, in accordance with normal UK practice and consistent with
Rule 14e-5(b) under the US Exchange Act, J.P. Morgan Cazenove and Morgan Stanley & Co.
International plc and their affiliates may continue to act as exempt principal traders in Just Eat Shares
on the London Stock Exchange and engage in certain other purchasing activities consistent with their
respective normal and usual practice and applicable law. Any information about such purchases will be
disclosed as required in the UK and the United States, will be reported to a Regulatory Information
Service     and     will    be    available   on     the    London     Stock   Exchange      website    at
www.londonstockexchange.com. To the extent that such information is made public in the United
Kingdom, it will also be publicly disclosed in the United States.

In relation to MIH’s intention to buy Just Eat Shares in the market outside the Final Increased Offer,
MIH and its affiliates and brokers cannot purchase Just Eat Shares from Just Eat Shareholders
incorporated or located in the United States or where the Just Eat Shares would be sold from the United
States. Any purchases will be made to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with Rule 14e-5(b)
under the US Exchange Act and in compliance with the City Code.

Financial information included in this announcement, the Offer Document dated 11 November 2019 and
the Revised Offer Document has been or will have been prepared in accordance with accounting
standards applicable in the UK and the Netherlands, as applicable, and may not be comparable to
financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The receipt of consideration by a US holder for the transfer of its Just Eat Shares pursuant to the Final
Increased Offer may be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes and under
applicable United States state and local, as well as non-US and other, tax laws. Each Just Eat
Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax
consequences of the Final Increased Offer applicable to them, including under applicable United States
federal, state and local, as well as non-US and other, tax laws.

It may be difficult for US holders to enforce their rights, effect service of process within the United States
and/or enforce any claim arising out of the US federal securities laws, since Just Eat is incorporated
under the laws of England and Wales. Prosus and MIH are organised under the laws of the Netherlands
and the majority of the officers and directors of Just Eat, Prosus and MIH are residents of countries
other than the United States. It may not be possible to sue Prosus, MIH or Just Eat, or any of their
respective directors, officers or affiliates, in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. It may
be difficult to compel Prosus, MIH, Just Eat and their respective directors, officers and affiliates to
subject themselves to the jurisdiction and judgment of a US court. There is substantial doubt as to the
enforceability in the United Kingdom of original actions, or of actions for enforcement of judgments of
US courts, based on civil liability provisions of US federal securities laws and judgments of a US court.

Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has
approved or disapproved the Final Increased Offer, or passed upon the fairness of the Final Increased
Offer or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this announcement. Any representation to the
contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.

No offer to acquire securities or to exchange securities for other securities has been made, or will be
made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use of the mails of, or by any means or instrumentality
of interstate or foreign commerce or any facilities of a national securities exchange of, the United States
or any other country in which such offer may not be made other than: (i) in accordance with the tender
offer requirements under the US Exchange Act, or the securities laws of such other country, as the case
may be; or (ii) pursuant to an available exemption from such requirements.

Forward looking statements

This announcement contains certain statements that are or may be forward looking statements,
including with respect to the Final Increased Offer. Forward-looking statements are prospective in
nature and are not based on current or historical facts, but rather on assumptions, expectations,
valuations, targets, estimates, forecasts and projections about future events, and are therefore subject
to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially
from the future results, performance or events expressed or implied by the forward looking statements.
All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this announcement may be forward
looking statements. Without limitation, forward looking statements often include words such as “targets”,
“plans”, “believes”, “hopes”, “continues”, “expects”, “is expected”, “objective”, “outlook”, ”risk”, “seeks”,

“budget”, “strategy”, “would look to”, “scheduled”, “goal”, “prepares”, “forecasts”, “cost-saving”, “is
subject to”, “synergy”, “projects” or words or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, as well
as variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”,
“could”, “should”, “would”, “might”, “probably” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Such statements
are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty, because they relate to events
and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future and the factors described in the context of
such forward-looking statements in this announcement could cause actual results and developments
to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Many factors
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking
statements. Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this announcement. Any forward-
looking statements made in this announcement on behalf of Prosus or MIH are made as of the date of
this announcement based on the opinions and estimates of directors of Prosus or MIH respectively and
no assurance can be given that such opinions or estimates will prove to have been correct.

No forward-looking or other statements have been reviewed by the auditors of Prosus, MIH or Just Eat.
All forward looking statements contained in this announcement and all subsequent oral or written
forward-looking statements attributable to Prosus, MIH or Just Eat or their respective members,
directors, officers, advisers or employees or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in
their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.

Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this announcement. None of Prosus, MIH
or Just Eat, or any of their respective members, associates or directors, officers or advisers and any
person acting on behalf of one or more of them, provides any representation, warranty, assurance or
guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward looking statements in
this announcement will actually occur. Other than in accordance with their legal or regulatory obligations
(including under the City Code, the Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules), no member of the Prosus Group is under, or undertakes, any obligation, and each of the
foregoing expressly disclaims any intention or obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

No profit forecasts or estimates

No statement in, or referred to in, this announcement or incorporated by reference into this
announcement is intended as or shall be deemed to be a profit forecast or estimate for any period. No
statement in, or referred to in, this announcement or incorporated by reference into this announcement
should be interpreted to mean that income of persons (where relevant), cash flow from operations, free
cash flow, earnings or earnings per share for Just Eat, Prosus or the Enlarged Group (as applicable)
for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historic published cash
flow from operations, free cash flow, earnings, earnings per share or dividend for Just Eat, Prosus, MIH
or Naspers or the Enlarged Group (as applicable).

Disclosure requirements of the City Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the City Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant
securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an
offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must
make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of an offer period and, if later,
following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified.

An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person’s interests and short positions in,
and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the offeree company; and (ii) any
securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies
must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the
commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the
10th business day following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first
identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities
exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a
Dealing Disclosure. Under Rule 8.3(b) of the City Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in
