1.    INTRODUCTION

1.1       PSG Group Shareholders are referred to the detailed cautionary announcement
          published by the Company on SENS on 1 March 2022 (“Detailed Cautionary
          Announcement”) in terms whereof, inter alia, PSG Group Shareholders were

          unlocking of value for the benefit of PSG Group Shareholders, through the steps
          detailed in that announcement.

1.2       PSG Group Shareholders are advised that, following the above investigation, the
          PSG Group Board (excluding any directors who have, or are deemed to have, a
          personal financial interest in terms of section 75 of the Companies Act) has resolved
          to proceed with the PSG Group Restructuring, as set out in this Firm Intention
          Announcement.

          Conditions to which the PSG Group Restructuring is subject.

          Restructuring from its shareholders.

2.    PSG GROUP RESTRUCTURING

2.1       PSG Group Shareholders are hereby advised that, subject to the fulfilment (or where
          permissible, waiver) of the PSG Group Restructuring Conditions, PSG Group will as
          one indivisible arrangement:

2.1.1       implement the PSG Group Unbundling by unbundling –

2.1.1.1        the PSG Konsult Unbundled Shares, comprising approximately 60.8 percent of
               the total issued share capital of PSG Konsult, to PSG Group Shareholders by
               way of a pro rata distribution in specie, in the ratio of 3.86921 PSG Konsult
               Shares for every PSG Group Share held on the PSG Group Unbundling record
               date;

2.1.1.2        the Curro Unbundled Shares, comprising approximately 63.6 percent of the
               total issued share capital of Curro, to PSG Group Shareholders by way of a pro
               rata distribution in specie, in the ratio of 1.81597 Curro Shares for every PSG
               Group Share held on the PSG Group Unbundling record date;

2.1.1.3        the Kaap Agri Unbundled Shares, expected to comprise approximately 34.9
               percent of the total issued share capital of Kaap Agri, to PSG Group
               Shareholders by way of a pro rata distribution in specie, in the ratio of 0.12364
               Kaap Agri Shares for every PSG Group Share held on the PSG Group
               Unbundling record date;

2.1.1.4        the CA&S Unbundled Shares, comprising approximately 47 percent of the total
               issued share capital of CA&S, to PSG Group Shareholders by way of a pro rata
               distribution in specie, in the ratio of 1.03650 CA&S Shares for every PSG Group
               Share held on the PSG Group Unbundling record date;

2.1.1.5        the Stadio Unbundled Shares, being a portion of PSG Group’s shareholding in
               that company, comprising approximately 25.1 percent of the total issued share
               capital of Stadio, to PSG Group Shareholders by way of a pro rata distribution
               in specie, in the ratio of 1.02216 Stadio Shares for every PSG Group Share
               held on the PSG Group Unbundling record date,

            in terms of section 46 of the Companies Act and section 46 of the Income Tax Act,
            and amounting to a disposal of the greater part of PSG Group’s assets or
            undertaking in terms of section 112 of the Companies Act;

2.1.2       implement a number of internal restructuring steps to be undertaken by PSG
            Group to facilitate the PSG Group Unbundling;

2.1.3       propose that, inter-conditionally with the PSG Group Unbundling, Exiting
            Shareholders dispose of their shareholding in PSG Group to PSG Group by way
            of a scheme of arrangement under section 114 of the Companies Act, in terms of
            the PSG Group Scheme, for a cash scheme consideration of R23.00 per PSG
            Group Share, following which the Remaining Shareholders of PSG Group will be
            the only shareholders of PSG Group; and

2.1.4       be delisted from the JSE following implementation of the PSG Group Unbundling
            and the PSG Group Scheme.

2.2       The purpose of this Firm Intention Announcement is to provide PSG Group
          Shareholders with detailed information regarding the terms and conditions of the PSG
          Group Restructuring and to advise PSG Group Shareholders that PSG Group is
          ready, able and willing to proceed with the PSG Group Restructuring.

3.    RATIONALE FOR THE PSG GROUP RESTRUCTURING

3.1       PSG Group is an investment holding company consisting of underlying investments
          that operate across a diverse range of industries, which include financial services
          (PSG Konsult), education (Curro and Stadio), food and related businesses (Zeder
          and Kaap Agri), route-to-market services for fast-moving consumer goods in southern
          Africa (CA&S), as well as early-stage unlisted investments in select growth sectors.

3.2       As a JSE-listed investment holding company, the main objective of PSG Group
          remains to create wealth for PSG Group Shareholders on a per share basis.
          However, the share price of PSG Group has unfortunately been trading at a
          significant discount of approximately 30% to the value of its underlying investments
          (or the so-called sum-of-the-parts value) in recent years, despite significant value-
          unlock initiatives undertaken, such as the Company’s unbundling of nearly its entire
          shareholding in Capitec during the financial year ended 28 February 2021, in terms
          of which approximately R21bn was unlocked for PSG Group Shareholders, based on
          Capitec’s closing share price on 21 April 2022.

3.3       Given the significant discount at which PSG Group has been trading to its sum-of-
          the-parts value in recent times, the PSG Group Board has investigated and decided
          on a value-unlock initiative by way of the PSG Group Restructuring.

3.4       The PSG Group Restructuring will entail the unbundling by PSG Group of its JSE-
          listed investments in PSG Konsult, Curro, Kaap Agri, CA&S and 25.1% of the total
          issued shares in Stadio to PSG Group Shareholders and thereafter the repurchase
          for cash of all the PSG Group Shares held by Exiting Shareholders by way of a
          scheme of arrangement in terms of section 114 of the Companies Act. The
          Remaining Shareholders will then hold 100 percent of PSG Group, with its remaining
          assets comprising mainly its investments in Zeder and PSG Alpha (the latter which
          holds predominantly early-stage investments and a remaining shareholding in
          Stadio).

3.5       The relevant steps to give effect to the PSG Group Restructuring as described in this
          Firm Intention Announcement are indivisible. Ultimately, it will result in the delisting
          of PSG Group from the JSE, allowing the Remaining Shareholders to focus on the
          remaining investments, most notably the early-stage investments that require further
          capital, management oversight and strategic input. The PSG Group Restructuring will
          accordingly ease the Company's administrative and regulatory compliance
          obligations, whilst at the same time unlocking significant value for Exiting
          Shareholders.

3.6       The PSG Group investments forming part of the PSG Group Unbundling are mainly
          established businesses with strong balance sheets and no immediate requirement
          for additional capital and which no longer require an anchor shareholder.
          Furthermore, they have exceptional management teams and experienced boards.
          This allows the PSG Group Board to propose the PSG Group Restructuring. The
          reason why the entire indirect shareholding of PSG Group in Stadio will not be
          unbundled, is that PSG Group is of the view that it can still add value and support the
          business operations of Stadio, even though Stadio has substantially grown and
          consolidated over the last few years. This will be to the benefit of Stadio and will
          therefore also benefit Exiting Shareholders. In order to achieve this goal, PSG Group
          needs to retain a significant enough shareholding in Stadio following the PSG Group
          Restructuring.

4.    SALIENT TERMS AND MECHANICS OF THE PSG GROUP RESTRUCTURING

4.1       Implementation of the PSG Group Restructuring

4.1.1       PSG Group will, subject to the fulfilment (or, where permissible, waiver) of the PSG
            Group Restructuring Conditions, unbundle the Unbundled Shares to PSG Group
            Shareholders, by way of a pro rata distribution in specie in terms of section 46 of
            the Companies Act and section 46 of the Income Tax Act.

4.1.2       The PSG Group Unbundling will be implemented in the distribution ratios set out
            in paragraph 2.1.1 above, based on the number of PSG Group Shares held by
            PSG Group Shareholders on the PSG Group Unbundling record date.

4.1.3       Inter-conditionally, but following the PSG Group Unbundling, the PSG Group
            Scheme will be implemented.

4.1.4       Thereafter, following the implementation of both the PSG Group Unbundling and
            the PSG Group Scheme, PSG Group is to be delisted from the JSE.

4.2       Anticipated Value Unlock

4.2.1       The table below illustrates the anticipated value to be unlocked by way of the PSG
            Group Restructuring for Exiting Shareholders, calculated as at the close of

            Cautionary Announcement on 1 March 2022) and on Thursday, 21 April 2022 –

                approval. The closing share prices presented in the table above are the closing
                share prices on the Botswana Stock Exchange on 28 February 2022 and
                21 April 2022, respectively, converted from Botswana pula into South African
                rand at the ruling exchange rate on those dates.

4.3       Classification

4.3.1       As all the Unbundled Shares will be listed on the JSE on the implementation of the
            PSG Group Unbundling, the PSG Group Unbundling will not require the approval
            of PSG Group Shareholders in terms of paragraph 5.85 of the JSE Listings
            Requirements. However, the PSG Group Unbundling is deemed to constitute a
            disposal of the greater part of the assets or undertaking of PSG Group in terms of
            section 112 of the Companies Act and therefore requires the approval of the TRP
            and the approval of PSG Group Shareholders by way of a special resolution, in
            terms of the provisions of section 115 of the Companies Act.

4.3.2       As the PSG Group Unbundling constitutes a disposal in terms of section 112 of
            the Companies Act, it qualifies as an “affected transaction” as defined in section
            117(1)(c)(i) of the Companies Act.

4.3.3       The PSG Group Scheme will involve the repurchase of PSG Group Shares from
            the Exiting Shareholders by way of a scheme of arrangement requiring
            shareholder approval in terms of sections 114 and 115 of the Companies Act and
            the Companies Regulations.

4.3.4       As the PSG Group Scheme constitutes a scheme of arrangement in terms of
            section 114, it also qualifies as an “affected transaction” as defined in section
            117(1)(c)(iii) of the Companies Act.

4.3.5       Consequently, both the PSG Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme are
            regulated by the Companies Act and the Companies Regulations and require the
            approval of the TRP.

4.4       Independent Board and Independent Expert’s Report

          PSG Group has constituted the Independent Board for purposes of the PSG Group
          Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme. The Independent Board is in the process
          of appointing an Independent Expert in order to, inter alia, prepare a fair and
          reasonable opinion for PSG Group Shareholders. The Independent Expert’s fair and
          reasonable opinion, as well as the Independent Board’s recommendation to PSG
          Group Shareholders in relation to the PSG Group Unbundling and the PSG Group
          Scheme, will be set out in the Circular as required in terms of the Companies Act and
          the Companies Regulations.

4.5       PSG Group Restructuring Conditions

          The PSG Group Restructuring is to take place on a composite and indivisible basis
          and all of the conditions pertaining to each step need to be fulfilled (or where
          applicable, waived), otherwise the PSG Group Restructuring will not go ahead. This

               Resolution”) and the PSG Group Scheme (“Scheme Resolution”) in terms of

               115(8) of the Companies Act, in relation to the PSG Group Unbundling or the

               restructure steps have become unconditional and are implemented in
               accordance with their terms; and

4.5.1.10       by no later than Friday, 29 July 2022, the shares of CA&S (which are currently
               listed on the CTSE) be listed instead on the JSE.

4.5.2       The PSG Group Restructuring Conditions in –

4.5.2.1        paragraphs 4.5.1.3 and 4.5.1.8 have been inserted for the benefit of PSG
               Group, which will be entitled, in its sole discretion, to waive fulfilment of such
               conditions precedent, in whole or in part; and

4.5.2.2        the remainder of the PSG Group Restructuring Conditions cannot be waived.

4.5.3       PSG Group may, at any time, extend the date for fulfilment of the PSG Group
            Restructuring Conditions.

4.6       Fractional Entitlements in respect of the PSG Group Unbundling

4.6.1       Where a PSG Group Shareholder’s entitlement to the Unbundled Shares in terms
            of the PSG Group Unbundling, calculated in accordance with the respective
            distribution ratios, gives rise to a fraction of any Unbundled Shares, such fraction
            will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, resulting in allocations of whole
            Unbundled Shares and a cash payment in respect of the fraction to such PSG
            Group Shareholders. The remaining fractions of Unbundled Shares will be
            bundled and sold on the market for the benefit of the relevant PSG Group
            Shareholders to fund the cash payment referred to above.

4.6.2       In accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, the weighted average traded
            price for the Unbundled Shares on the last day to trade, plus one business day,
            less 10%, will be used to calculate the cash value for the respective fractions of
            the Unbundled Shares to be paid to the applicable PSG Group Shareholders.

4.6.3       Certificated Shareholders whose bank account details are not held by the Transfer
            Secretaries, are requested to provide such details to the Transfer Secretaries to
            enable payment of the cash amount due for the aforementioned fractions of the
            Unbundled Shares. Should no details be on record, the funds will be held by the
            Company in trust until such time as the details have been provided and the cash
            fraction will thereafter be paid to the PSG Group Shareholder upon its request
            without interest, subject to the applicable laws of prescription.

4.7       Implementation of the PSG Group Unbundling

4.7.1       Under the PSG Group Unbundling, PSG Group Shareholders will receive the
            Unbundled Shares in Dematerialised form only.

4.7.2       Accordingly, all Certificated Shareholders wishing to receive their Unbundled
            Shares must appoint a CSDP under the terms of the Financial Markets Act, directly
            or through a Broker, to receive the Unbundled Shares on their behalf.

4.7.3       Should a Certificated Shareholder not appoint a CSDP under the terms of the
            Financial Markets Act, directly or through a Broker, to receive the Unbundled
            Shares on its behalf, such PSG Group Shareholder will be issued with a statement
            of allocation, reflecting its Unbundled Shares, by the Transfer Secretaries. Such
            PSG Group Shareholders can thereafter instruct the Transfer Secretaries to
            transfer their Unbundled Shares, represented by the statement of allocation, to
            their appointed CSDP or can instruct the Transfer Secretaries to issue them, at
            their own risk, with a share certificate(s) at any time following the PSG Group
            Unbundling.

4.7.4       If a PSG Group Shareholder is in any doubt as to what action to take in respect of
            the PSG Group Unbundling, such PSG Group Shareholder should consult its
            Broker, CSDP, banker, attorney or other professional advisor.

4.7.5       The PSG Group Unbundling is subject to the PSG Group Restructuring Conditions
            set out above.

4.8       Implementation of the PSG Group Scheme

4.8.1       The PSG Group Scheme will be proposed by the PSG Group Board between PSG
            Group and the Exiting Shareholders.

4.8.2       The Exiting Shareholders shall receive the cash scheme consideration of R23.00
            per PSG Group Share repurchased from the relevant PSG Group Shareholder by
            PSG Group, subject to a potential adjustment in terms of paragraph 4.14 below.

4.8.3       The PSG Group Scheme is subject to the PSG Group Restructuring Conditions
            set out above.

4.9       Cash Confirmation

         In accordance with Regulation 111(4) and Regulation 111(5) of the Companies
         Regulations, PSG Group has provided an irrevocable bank guarantee to the TRP
         which confirms that PSG Group will have sufficient cash resources in terms of
         Regulation 111 to satisfy payment of the maximum possible consideration in respect
         of the PSG Group Scheme.

4.10      Concert Parties

4.10.1      The Remaining Shareholders may be deemed to be concert parties with PSG
            Group for purposes of the PSG Group Restructuring, as each of the Remaining
            Shareholders has in principle agreed to remain PSG Group Shareholders
            following the implementation of the PSG Group Restructuring.

4.10.2      The Remaining Shareholders hold, in aggregate, 34.6% of the total number of
            issued PSG Group Shares (net of treasury shares).

4.11      Delisting of the PSG Group Shares

           Should the PSG Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme be implemented,
           the listing of the PSG Group Shares on the Main Board of the JSE will be terminated
           immediately thereafter.

4.12      Tax considerations in relation to the PSG Group Restructuring and Foreign
          Shareholders

4.12.1      PSG Group Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding
            the tax consequences of the PSG Group Restructuring.

4.12.2      Insofar as the PSG Group Unbundling is concerned –

4.12.2.1       it is expected that the PSG Group Unbundling will qualify as an unbundling
               transaction for purposes of section 46 of the Income Tax Act and will result in
               rollover relief being provided to PSG Group and the PSG Group Shareholders.
               However, PSG Group will incur capital gains tax (and also dividend withholding
               tax in the case of disqualified person PSG Group Shareholders, if any) in
               respect of the PSG Group Unbundling to disqualified person PSG Group
               Shareholders, as defined in the Income Tax Act. Generally, a disqualified
               person in relation to an unbundling is any person who will not be subject to tax
               on a subsequent disposal of the Unbundled Shares (such as, for example,
               Foreign Shareholders, retirement funds, government and public benefit
               organisations) and who hold 5% or more of the shares in the unbundling
               company, in this case PSG Group. The tax consequences for Foreign
               Shareholders should be confirmed by such Foreign Shareholders with their
               advisors;

4.12.2.2       the receipt of the Unbundled Shares in terms of the PSG Group Unbundling by
               PSG Group Shareholders resident in South Africa should qualify for tax rollover
               relief;

4.12.2.3       any PSG Group Shareholder holding PSG Group Shares as trading stock or on
               capital account, as the case may be, will be deemed to acquire the Unbundled
               Shares as trading stock or as capital assets on the same basis. Subject to
               confirmation from SARS, the PSG Group Shareholders must allocate a portion
               of the expenditure or base cost in respect of the PSG Group Shares to the
               Unbundled Shares and reduce the expenditure or base cost in respect of the
               PSG Group Shares accordingly. The PSG Group Shareholders will be deemed
               to have incurred the expenditure or base cost allocated to the Unbundled
               Shares on the same date that it was incurred in respect of the PSG Group
               Shares;

4.12.2.4       subject to confirmation from SARS, the expenditure or base cost, as the case
               may be, to be allocated to the Unbundled Shares on a proportionate basis will
               be determined by applying the ratio that the market value of Unbundled Shares,
               as at the last day to trade PSG Group Shares in order to be recorded in the
               Register to participate in the PSG Group Unbundling, plus one business day,
               bears to the sum of the market value, at the end of that day, of the Unbundled
               Shares and the PSG Group Shares;

4.12.2.5       PSG Group will advise PSG Group Shareholders of the specified ratio at which
               the expenditure or base cost, as the case may be, must be allocated between
               the PSG Group Shares and the Unbundled Shares by way of an announcement
               expected to be published on SENS on the business day immediately preceding
               the record date for the PSG Group Unbundling. The allocated expenditure or
               base cost, as the case may be, must be used in the determination of any profits
               or losses or capital gains or losses, as the case may be, derived on any future
               disposals of the PSG Group Shares and/or the Unbundled Shares;

4.12.2.6       in terms of sections 46(5) and 46(5A) of the Income Tax Act, the distribution of
               the Unbundled Shares must be disregarded for dividends tax purposes and
               must also not be treated as a return of capital for purposes of paragraph 76B
               of the Eighth Schedule to the Income Tax Act;

4.12.2.7       the distribution of the Unbundled Shares to PSG Group Shareholders will be
               exempt from the payment of any securities transfer tax.

4.12.3        Insofar as the PSG Group Scheme is concerned, it is anticipated that the specific
              repurchase will not be funded by PSG Group from contributed tax capital, resulting
              in it being treated as a dividend. In this context, a dividend will be subject to
              dividend withholding tax unless there is a specific exemption that applies to, inter
              alia, resident companies of South Africa. Securities transfer tax will be payable in
              respect of the PSG Group Scheme, which will be funded by the Company.

4.13        PSG Group Shareholders who are non-resident for tax purposes in South Africa are
            advised to consult their own professional tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of
            the PSG Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme in their respective
            jurisdictions, having regard to the tax laws in their jurisdiction and any applicable tax
            treaties between South Africa and their country of residence.

4.14      Potential adjustment to cash scheme consideration

4.14.1      Please note that the cash scheme consideration of R23 per Share may be reduced
            as per the table below. In terms of the relevant tax legislation dealing with
            unbundlings, and particularly insofar it pertains to unbundling distributions made
            to disqualified person shareholders, an unbundling company such as PSG Group
            has no certainty regarding its potential tax exposure unless there is a mechanism
            in place to regulate same and to provide certainty regarding the cash requirements
            to implement a proposed transaction such as the PSG Group Restructuring.
            Following below is the mechanism to be utilised to regulate such exposure, of
            which more detail will be included in the Circular.

4.14.2      At the time of this Firm Intention Announcement, the Government Employees
            Pension Fund (“GEPF”), being a disqualified person shareholder, holds
            approximately 12.9% in the net issued share capital of PSG Group, with the capital
            gains tax (“CGT”) payable pursuant thereto having been taken into consideration
            to derive at the cash scheme consideration of R23 per Share. The calculation of
            the CGT liability of PSG Group is thus based on a percentage equal to 12.9%.
            PSG Group’s tax liability in respect of this transaction, and therefore the PSG
            Group Scheme’s cash consideration, have been based on the aforesaid.

4.14.3      The final tax liability will only be determinable on or about the applicable last date
            to trade prior to implementation of the PSG Group Unbundling, once certainty
            regarding the extent of the disqualified person shareholding in PSG Group at such
            time and the related underlying tax consequences are obtained. If there is no
            change, for example, in the disqualified person shareholding in PSG Group and
            the percentage holding thereof, the cash consideration for the PSG Group Scheme
            will remain unchanged at R23 per Share. However, PSG Group has no control
            over, inter alia, the extent of such disqualified person shareholding. Accordingly,
            should PSG Group’s tax liability increase due to changes as per the above on or
            before the applicable last date to trade prior to implementation of the PSG Group
            Unbundling, the cash consideration of the PSG Group Scheme will potentially be
            adjusted as set out below for illustrative purposes (this will only occur if the tax
            circumstances change):


                        Adjustment to PSG Group Scheme                      PSG Group Scheme cash

No additional                           -                     -                 23.00               23.00

10% additional                      (1.30)                (2.69)                21.70               20.31


   *    Assuming a reduced DWT rate of 15% in respect of disqualified person PSG Group
        Shareholders.

        A detailed schedule of scenarios will be included in the Circular, and factored in the
        independent expert’s report. Please note that, in the unlikely event of an adjustment to
        the PSG Group scheme cash consideration occurring, such reduction will not result in
        the cash consideration reducing to below R20.31 per Share and that this value is
        therefore the minimum amount that Exiting Shareholders will receive in terms of the PSG
        Group Scheme, upon it becoming unconditional and being implemented. PSG Group
        Shareholders will be updated on the state of affairs prior to the General Meeting.

5.    FOREIGN SHAREHOLDERS

5.1       No action has been taken by PSG Group to obtain any approval, authorisation or
          exemption to permit the distribution of the Unbundled Shares and/or the PSG Group
          Scheme or the possession or distribution of this Firm Intention Announcement (or any
          other publicity material relating to the Unbundled Shares) in any jurisdictions other
          than South Africa.

5.2       The PSG Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme are being conducted under
          the procedural requirements and disclosure standards of South Africa which may be
          different from those applicable in other jurisdictions. The legal implications of the PSG
          Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme on persons resident or located in
          jurisdictions outside of South Africa may be affected by the laws of the relevant
          jurisdiction. Such persons should consult their professional advisors and inform
          themselves about any applicable legal requirements, which they are obligated to
          observe. It is the responsibility of any such persons participating in the PSG Group
          Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme to satisfy themselves as to the full
          observance of the laws of the relevant jurisdiction in connection therewith.

5.3       Foreign Shareholders should refer to and take into account the disclaimers set out at
          the end of this Firm Intention Announcement and to be contained in the Circular in
          relation to those jurisdictions.

6.    EXCHANGE CONTROL

6.1       The Company will apply for the requisite exchange control approval from the
          Financial Surveillance Department of the South African Reserve Bank for the PSG
          Group Unbundling and the PSG Group Scheme.

6.2       The Exchange Control Regulations provide for restrictions on the exportation of
          capital from the Common Monetary Area. The Common Monetary Area consists of
          South Africa, the Republic of Namibia and the Kingdoms of Lesotho and eSwatini.
          Transactions between residents of the countries comprising the Common Monetary
          Area and foreigners are subject to Exchange Control Regulations provisions, which
          are administered by the South African Reserve Bank (“SARB”).

6.3       Various reforms have been made to the Exchange Control Regulations with a view
          to relax the rules pertaining to foreign investments. A considerable degree of flexibility
          is built into the system and the SARB has substantial discretionary powers in
          approving or rejecting a specific application that has been submitted through an
          authorised dealer in foreign exchange appointed by the SARB (“Authorised
          Dealer”). The relaxations of the provisions of the Exchange Control Regulations are
          contained in the Currency and Exchanges Manual for Authorised Dealers (“AD
          Manual”). As provided for in the Exchange Control Regulations, the SARB has also
          delegated to Authorised Dealers the power to approve certain transactions, without
          the SARB’s prior approval.

6.4       It was announced in the 2020 South African Budget that the Exchange Control
          Regulations will be replaced by a new capital flow management framework and
          regulations. Previously a distinction was made between residents, non-residents and
          emigrants. The concept of “emigration” as recognised by SARB is being phased out
          with effect from 1 March 2021. Exchange Control Circular 6/2021 dated
          26 February 2021 and 8/2021 dated 21 May 2021 set out the changes in relation to
          emigrants with effect from 1 March 2021. From this date, natural person residents
          and natural person emigrants are treated identically. The process of blocking an
          emigrant’s remaining assets fell away and is treated as normal fund transfers in line
          with any other foreign capital allowance transfer. Authorised Dealers can now allow
          the transfer of assets of an emigrant abroad provided the natural person has ceased
          to be a resident of South Africa, has obtained a tax compliance status confirmation
          from SARS and is tax compliant upon verification of such confirmation. To ensure a
          smooth transition from the previous framework to the new framework, natural persons
          that applied to emigrate under the previous framework by obtaining an MP336(b)
          form that was attested to by an Authorised Dealer on or before 28 February 2021, will
          be dealt with under the previous framework should their emigration applications have
          been approved on or before 28 February 2021. PSG Group Shareholders should
          consult their relevant Authorised Dealer should they be unsure of their status or the
          way in which they need to deal with the Unbundled Shares or the proceeds from the
          PSG Group Scheme.

6.5       Securities control with regard to natural persons will continue to apply until
          discussions with various stakeholders have been finalised. There are no restrictions
          on the part of residents to receive their Unbundled Shares. With reference to non-
          residents, generally in the case of Dematerialised shares, the Unbundled Shares will
          be credited directly to the share account of the relevant CSDP or Broker controlling
          their portfolios and an appropriate electronic entry will be made in the relevant register
          reflecting a “non-resident” endorsement. A similar process applies to Unbundled
          Shares held by emigrants as these shares will be credited to the emigrant’s share
          account of the relevant CSDP or Broker controlling their remaining portfolios and a
          similar electronic entry will be made in the relevant register reflecting a “non-resident”
          endorsement (which may be held to the order of the Authorised Dealer concerned
          under whose auspices the person’s remaining assets are held, should it be relevant
          in the case of emigrants).

6.6       In the case of Certificated Shares held by non-residents, the Unbundled Shares will
          be endorsed “non-resident”. In the case of emigrants, the share certificates will
          equally be endorsed “non-resident” (to be deposited with the Authorised Dealer under
          whose auspices the remaining assets are held in appropriate cases in the case of an
          emigrant or where the PSG Group Shares have been restrictively endorsed, it being
          noted that it would be up to the relevant PSG Group Shareholder to notify the
          Authorised Dealer).

6.7       Generally, the CSDP or the Broker will ensure that all requirements of the Exchange
          Control Regulations will be adhered to in respect of their clients, whether the shares
          are held in dematerialised or certificated format.

6.8       Payment of the proceeds of the PSG Group Scheme will be made into the account
          of the relevant CSDP or Broker as the case may be.

6.9       PSG Group Shareholders who are not resident in, or whose registered addresses are
          outside the Common Monetary Area, will need to comply with the Exchange Control
          Regulations as set out at the end of this Firm Intention Announcement in relation to
          those jurisdictions.

6.10      If PSG Group Shareholders are in any doubt as to what action to take, they should
          consult their professional advisors.

7.    BUSINESS, STRATEGY AND PROSPECTS OF PSG GROUP AFTER THE PSG
      GROUP RESTRUCTURING

      Following the PSG Group Restructuring, PSG Group will continue to operate, albeit as
      an unlisted investment holding company, focusing on its remaining assets comprising
      mainly its investments in Zeder and PSG Alpha (the latter which holds predominantly
      early-stage investments and a remaining shareholding in Stadio), as well as making
      further investments as and when opportune, always with the objective of creating wealth
      on a per share basis for Remaining Shareholders.

8.    SALIENT DATES AND TIMES

      The salient dates and times of the PSG Group Restructuring will be announced on SENS
      when the Circular is distributed.

9.    CIRCULAR AND IMPLEMENTATION

9.1       The information contained in this Firm Intention Announcement should be read in
          conjunction with the terms of, and subject to, the disclaimers to be contained in the
          Circular. The Circular will contain full details of the PSG Group Restructuring and will
          incorporate a notice convening the General Meeting of PSG Group Shareholders in
          order to consider and, if deemed fit, to pass, with or without modification, the
