MEETING


Specific Repurchase

1. Introduction

    Brimstone has in place a share incentive plan known as the Brimstone Forfeitable Share Plan ("FSP"),
    in terms of which employees and executive directors ("Participant/s") have an opportunity to receive
    "N" Ordinary shares in the Company through the award of performance shares and/or bonus shares
    ("Forfeitable Shares").

    Shareholders are advised that the board of Brimstone proposes a specific repurchase of vested
    Forfeitable Shares from Participant/s (the "Specific Repurchase"), at the Company's annual general
    meeting ("AGM") to be held at 10:30 on Tuesday, 27 May 2025.

    The Specific Repurchase is subject to the provisions of the Memorandum of Incorporation of the
    Company, the Companies Act, No. 71 of 2008 (the "Companies Act") and the JSE Limited ("JSE")
    Listings Requirements, where applicable.

2. Terms of the Specific Repurchase

    The Specific Repurchase will be effected by Septen Investments Proprietary Limited, a wholly owned
    subsidiary of Brimstone, through the repurchase of vested Forfeitable Shares from Participants for
    cash as follows:

    2.1.   The maximum number of Forfeitable Shares to be repurchased in respect of the Specific
           Repurchase will not exceed 2 349 018 "N" Ordinary shares, being the number of Forfeitable
           Shares that may vest in February 2026, and representing 1.04% of the Company's current
           issued "N" Ordinary share capital.

    2.2.   The exact Specific Repurchase price cannot be determined at this stage as the value of the
           shares in 2026 is unknown, however, the price will be based on the volume weighted average
           price ("VWAP") of Brimstone "N" Ordinary shares traded on the JSE over the 30 business days
           prior to the date of vesting of the Forfeitable Shares and will not be at a premium or a discount,
           as agreed in writing between the Company's wholly owned subsidiary and the relevant
           Participant/s.

    2.3.   Following the Specific Repurchase, the repurchased Forfeitable Shares will be held as treasury
           shares by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary and would be subsequently issued by the
           FSP for settlement of new awards made by the FSP.

    2.4.   After the Specific Repurchase, 20 010 064 "N" Ordinary shares will be held as treasury shares.

    2.5.   The special resolution proposing the Specific Repurchase, which includes full details of the
           Specific Repurchase as required by the JSE Listings Requirements and the Companies Act, is
           contained in the notice of AGM which forms part of the Company's integrated report for the year
           ended 31 December 2024.
3. Impact of the Specific Repurchase on financial information

       3.1.   The maximum Specific Repurchase price cannot be determined at this stage, however based
              on an indicative value of R4.67 per Brimstone "N" Ordinary share (being the VWAP of Brimstone
              "N" Ordinary shares traded on the JSE over the 30 business days up to and including
              Wednesday, 19 March 2025), the maximum Specific Repurchase consideration would be
              approximately R10 969 914.

       3.2.   The Company's cash balance will decrease in the 2026 financial year by the aggregate Specific
              Repurchase consideration as a result of the Specific Repurchase. The repurchased Forfeitable
              Shares will continue to be held as treasury shares and there will be no change to the financial
              information.
