                                        (LSE: VVO / JSE: VVO)

  Update on arrangements for the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") in light of
                                 COVID-19

The Company notes the restrictions on public gatherings imposed by the Government following the
publication of the Company's Notice of AGM and associated announcement on 26 March 2020. The
Company's AGM will still be held at Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP, 28 Tudor Street, London
EC4Y 0BH at 2:00 pm on Wednesday 20 May 2020, but regrettably, in order to comply with
Government measures, it will not be possible for shareholders to physically attend the AGM in person.

The Board encourages shareholders to vote electronically or to appoint the Chair of the meeting as
their proxy with their voting instructions. Shareholders should refer to the voting instructions set out
on pages 8 and 9 of the Notice of AGM. Shareholders are encouraged to submit their voting
instructions as soon as possible. The voting instructions of UK registered shareholders must be
received by the Company's registrars in the UK by 2:00 pm (UK time) on Monday 18 May 2020 and
South African registered shareholders must submit their voting instructions to their Central Securities
Depository Participant or broker by 3.00 pm (SAST) on 14 May 2020.

All valid proxy appointments will be included in the poll to be taken at the AGM. The results of voting
will be announced to the London Stock Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, and published
on the Company's website, as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the AGM.

Despite the challenging circumstances, we remain committed to our engagement with shareholders.
Shareholders wishing to raise any questions relating to the business of the AGM may do so by
submitting them to the Company Secretary ahead of the meeting at cosec@vivoenergy.com. The
Company will publish a summary of responses on its website as soon as possible after the meeting.

Please note that as announced on 30 April 2020, the Board has withdrawn its recommendation to pay
a final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2019, and accordingly that Resolution 3 will not be
put to the AGM. The Board intends to consider the appropriateness, quantum and timing of an
additional dividend payment relating to the financial year ended 31 December 2019 when there is
more clarity around the effects of COVID-19 on the Group's operations.

The situation in relation to COVID-19 continues to develop. The Board encourages shareholders to
monitor the Company's website and regulatory news services for any updates in relation to the AGM.
The Board would like to take this opportunity to thank all shareholders for their support and
understanding in these unprecedented circumstances.


                                                ENDS
