Change to the Board of directors of Karooooo (“Board”)

Ms Siew Koon Ong (Ms Siew Koon Lim) has been appointed as an independent non-executive director to
the Board and member of the Audit and Risk Committee with immediate effect.
Siew Koon Ong (Siew Koon Lim) holds a Bachelor of Accountancy degree from the National University of

Siew Koon has 37 years of experience in providing audit and business advisory services to local companies
as well as major public listed companies in a wide range of industries, including banks. She has led initial
