COVID-19 LOCKDOWN

Implats notes South African President Cyril Ramaphosa’s directive for a 21-day national shutdown
of all non-essential businesses and services, effective midnight Thursday 26 March 2020.

The Group supports the decisive action taken to help bring the COVID-19 pandemic under control
and flatten the curve of the infection rate. The health and safety of our employees and host
communities is of paramount importance to Implats.

The Group is working systematically to ensure an orderly transition to a period of care and
maintenance at our mining, smelting and refining operations, as directed by the South African
government.

Implats plays a key role in the economy of South Africa, is a major employer, and our operations
support multiple businesses and families in our host communities. As such, the Group is engaging
with the South African government to ensure the sustainability of the Group and mitigate, where
possible, the negative socio-economic outcomes of the shutdown.

The Implats Board and executive are engaged in detailed analysis and planning related to the impact
the shutdown will have on the Group. Further details will be communicated once the Group has more
certainty.

Implats CEO Nico Muller said: “These are unprecedented and extraordinary times and we all need
to make sacrifices for the greater good. Implats will do what is necessary to protect our employees,
communities and the South African economy.”
