2024 to 25 September 2024. Details of the currency exchange rates applicable for the dividend will be announced to the relevant

   of 20% unless a shareholder qualifies for an exemption.

2. After the South African dividend tax has been withheld, the net dividend will be 44.29582 South African cents per ordinary share.

3. Australia is the country of source of income, the dividend is regarded as 'foreign' for the purposes of South African dividends tax.
