Friday 14 August 2020: Cut-off date for new information. Information available prior to the end of day on 14
August 2020 will be considered when determining September’s shares and free float updates.

Friday 21 August 2020: The shares and float files will be released on 21 August 2020 (and will be available on the
FTSE/JSE website on 24 August 2020). Clients are welcome to query the data included within these files and FTSE
Russell will review appropriately. Any changes will be visible within the files which will be published daily between 21
August and 04 September 2020. These files are strictly indicative until end of day on 04 September 2020 and are
subject to daily changes.

The FTSE/JSE Index Review files will be released on Wednesday 02 September 2020.

Friday 21 August to Friday 04 September 2020: Query period. Clients are welcome to query the data visible
within the files between 24 August 2020 and end of day on 04 September 2020.

The quarterly updates will be considered final at end of day on Friday 04 September 2020.

Monday 07 September 2020: Effective start of trading on 07 September 2020, the scheduled changes will be
“locked down” across the FTSE/JSE Indexes, with no further corrections applied this quarter*.
*During the quarterly review / annual reconstitution lock-down period, FTSE Russell will generally avoid implementing corrections to ensure stability during
the period prior to the review / reconstitution implementation. However egregious shares and free float errors discovered within the lock-down period or during
the week following the review / reconstitution may be corrected if an erroneous change compromises the replicability of the index OR if the change places
potential price pressure on the company OR if there is a material error of 50% or greater (relative) to index shares. An y corrections during the lock-down
period or the week following the review will be implemented with appropriate notice. All other shares and free float errors will be corrected at the following
quarterly index review.


Monday 21 September 2020: From start of trading on 21 September 2020 the quarterly changes will become
effective within the FTSE/JSE Indexes.
   Additional Clarifications

   Stocks Suspended during the Review Period: Constituents which are suspended on Friday 04 September 2020*
   will not have their scheduled review changes implemented regardless of a resumption of trade prior to the review
   effective date. The scheduled review changes will be implemented T+2 after the review effective date, at the earliest,
   upon resumption of trade.

   If an active constituent suspends on or prior to Wednesday 16 September 2020, the scheduled review changes will
   be reversed and applied T+2 after the resumption of trade (T+2 after the review effective date, at the earliest). If a
   suspension occurs on 17 September 2020 or 18 September 2020, the review changes will proceed as previously
   communicated**.
   *If there is a confirmed resumption of trade date which occurs prior to the review effective date, the review changes
   will proceed as scheduled.
   **in exceptional circumstances, it may be deemed necessary to reverse the review changes when a company suspends
   on 17 or 18 September 2020.

   Long Term Suspended Stocks: Constituents that have been suspended for 60 or more days on or before Friday 21
   August 2020, will be deleted from the index in conjunction with the index review (at zero price). However, if the
   constituent subsequently resumes trading on or prior to Friday 04 September 2020 the deletion will be rescinded
   and the constituent will remain within the index if otherwise eligible. If the constituent resumes trading on or after 07
   September 2020, it will still be removed in conjunction with the review (at market price if an active replicable market
   exists – otherwise it will be removed at zero).

   Equity Offerings: In accordance with standard methodology, primary and secondary offerings will continue to be
   applied with two days’ notice when discovered after the review announcement date. However, offerings which would
   ordinarily become effective at the open on the Tuesday - Friday prior to the review will instead be implemented
   simultaneously in conjunction with the review effective date on 21 September 2020 (open). Offerings discovered on
   the Thursday and Friday prior to the review will be implemented with two days’ notice and therefore subsequent to
   the review.
