Change in logistical arrangements for Annual General Meeting

1. Introduction
   1.1 As set out in the announcement of the notice of the annual general meeting on 27
       May 2020, the annual general meeting was to be held at the offices of the group, Block
       1, Townsend Office Park, 1 Townsend Avenue, Bedfordview on Tuesday, 18 August 2020
       at 08h00 to transact the business as stated in the annual general meeting notice.

   1.2 As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak in South Africa and its declaration as a "national
       disaster" in terms of the Disaster Management Act, 2002 (and accordingly, the
       restrictions imposed thereby on public gatherings), it is no longer advisable to hold the
       annual general meeting in person at the group's offices.

2. Change in logistical arrangements for the annual general meeting
   2.1 The annual general meeting will proceed at 08h00 on Tuesday, 18 August 2020, and
       will only be accessible through electronic communication, as permitted by the JSE
       Limited and the provisions of the Companies Act and the company's memorandum of
       incorporation.

   2.2 To this end, the company has engaged the services of The Meeting Specialist
       Proprietary Limited ("TMS") to host the annual general meeting on an interactive
       electronic platform remotely, in order to facilitate remote participation and voting by
       shareholders. TMS will also act as scrutineer.

   2.3 Shareholders who wish to participate electronically in and/or vote at the annual
       general meeting are required to contact TMS on proxy@tmsmeetings.co.za or
       alternatively contact their office on +27 11 520 7950/1/2 as soon as possible, but in any
       event, for administrative purposes only, by no later than 08h00 on Monday, 17 August
       2020. However, this will not in any way affect the rights of shareholders to register for
       the annual general meeting after this date, provided, however, that only those
       shareholders who are fully verified (as required in terms of section 63(1) of the
       Companies Act) and subsequently registered at the commencement of the annual
       general meeting, will be allowed to participate in and/or vote by electronic means.

   2.4 Shareholders are strongly encouraged to submit votes by proxy before the annual
       general meeting. If shareholders wish to attend the annual general meeting, they
       should instruct their CSDP or broker to issue them with the necessary letter of
       representation to attend the annual general meeting, in the manner stipulated in their
       respective custody agreements. These instructions must be provided to the CSDP or
       broker by the cut-off time and date advised by the CSDP or Broker for instructions of
       this nature.

   2.5 TMS will assist shareholders with the requirements for electronic participation in, and/or
       voting at, the annual general meeting. TMS is further obliged to validate (in
       correspondence with the company and, in particular, the transfer secretary,
       Computershare Limited (“Computershare”), and your CSDP) each such Shareholder's
       entitlement to participate in and/or vote at the annual general meeting, before
       providing it with the necessary means to access the annual general meeting and/or
       the associated voting platform.

   2.6 Shareholders will be liable for their own network charges in relation to electronic
       participation in and/or voting at the annual general meeting. Any such charges will
       not be for the account of the JSE, the company and/or TMS. None of the JSE, the
       company or TMS can be held accountable in the case of loss of network connectivity
       or other network failure due to insufficient airtime, internet connectivity, internet
       bandwidth and/or power outages which prevents any such shareholder from
       participating in and/or voting at the annual general meeting.

3. Voting by Proxy

   3.1 Notwithstanding the above, shareholders are reminded that they are still able to vote
       normally through proxy submission, despite deciding to participate either electronically
       or not at all in the annual general meeting. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to
       submit votes by proxy in advance of the annual general meeting.

   3.2 Kindly ensure that TMS is copied when submitting all completed proxy forms and/or
       letters of representation to Computershare (proxy@computershare.co.za).
