Notice of Currency Exchange Rate
Dividend No. 29

AB InBev shareholders are referred to the announcement published on the Stock Exchange News Service of the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange (“JSE”) (“SENS”) on Thursday, 25 February 2021 and are advised that the final dividend
of €0.50 per share (the “Dividend”) proposed by the board of directors of AB InBev was approved by AB InBev
shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on Wednesday, 28 April 2021.

The exchange rate applicable for the conversion of Euro to SA Rand for the Dividend will be €1.00 to ZAR 17.4669440,
as calculated on Monday, 3 May 2021. Accordingly, the gross amount of the Dividend is 873.34720 SA cents per share
and will be subject to a Belgian Withholding Tax of 30% (equalling 262.00416 SA cents per share) which will be withheld
from the gross Dividend paid to shareholders.

After the Belgian Withholding Tax has been withheld, the net Dividend will be 611.34304 SA cents per share. This
withholding tax is reduced to 15% in terms of the double tax treaty in force between Belgium and South Africa. A rebate
of the additional Belgian Withholding Tax of 15% which is withheld in Belgium must be claimed by SA shareholders in
accordance with the relevant reimbursement process noted in the announcement published on SENS on Thursday,
25 February 2021.

The Dividend may also be subject to SA Dividends Tax at the rate of 20%, unless a shareholder qualifies for an
exemption. Any shareholder that receives a Dividend which is subject to SA Dividends Tax (i.e. where no exemption is
available) will qualify for a 15% rebate from SA Dividends Tax, being the Belgian Withholding Tax of 15%.

The ultimate result is that the Dividend will be subject to a reduced Belgian Withholding Tax rate of 15% and subject to
SA Dividends Tax at a rate of 5% (unless a shareholder qualifies for an exemption from SA Dividends Tax, in which
case only Belgian Withholding Tax of 15% will be applicable).
