DISTRIBUTION OF CIRCULAR AND NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS


1.   Introduction

Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 28 October 2020, in which
Hulamin proposed to extend its broad-based black economic empowerment (“B-BBEE”) transaction implemented in 2015 (“BEE
Extension Transaction”) . The BEE Extension Transaction will encompass the following:

-    the extension of the vesting date of the B1 Ordinary Shares, B2 Ordinary Shares and B3 Ordinary Shares to 27 February 2026;
-    the removal of the Caps with the result that there will no longer be a limitation on the potential economic benefit derived by
     the BEE SPV and the ESOP Trust upon vesting;
-    the removal of the 3-year post vesting lock-in period in relation to the Funded Shares; and
-    the creation and issue of 4 721 600 new A3 Ordinary Shares to the ESOP Trust. The new A3 Ordinary Shares will have a 5-year
     and two-month vesting period, with no post-vesting lock-in and will be entitled to receive dividends to the extent that
     dividends are declared on no par value ordinary shares.


2.   Distribution of Circular

Shareholders are advised that the Circular, setting out, inter alia, the terms of the BEE Extension Transaction and incorporating a
notice to convene general meetings for the purpose of considering and, if deemed fit, passing with or without modification, the
relevant resolutions required to authorise and implement the BEE Extension Transaction, has been distributed to shareholders
today, Tuesday, 17 November 2020. The Circular is also available on the Company’s website at www.hulamin.co.za
