All times indicated in this announcement are SAST. 2. The dates and times indicated in the table above are based on certain assumptions regarding the date by when the Partial Offer Conditions Precedent and A4S Conditions Precedent, respectively, will be fulfilled or, if permitted, waived and are therefore subject to change, subject to the approval of the JSE and/or TRP (in circumstances where such approvals are required). If the relevant dates are required to change, such changes will be announced on SENS. 3. Share certificates in respect of AfroCentric Shares may not be Dematerialised or Rematerialised between the last day to trade in AfroCentric Shares in order to be eligible to participate in the Partial Offer, expected to be on Tuesday, 23 May 2023, and the Offer Record and Offer Closing Date, expected to be on Friday, 26 May 2023, both days inclusive, during which period the certificated securities sub-register of AfroCentric’s Register will be closed. 4. AfroCentric Shareholders should note that, as transactions in AfroCentric Shares are settled in the electronic settlement system used by Strate, settlement of trades takes place 3 Business Days after such trade. Therefore, persons who acquire AfroCentric Shares after the last day to trade in order to be eligible to attend and vote at the General Meeting may, nevertheless, participate in the Partial Offer provided that (i) the Partial Offer becomes unconditional, (ii) such person acquires AfroCentric Shares on or prior to the last day to trade in AfroCentric Shares in order to be eligible to participate in the Partial Offer (expected to be on Tuesday, 23 May 2023), and (iii) holds such AfroCentric Shares on the Offer Record Date. 5. Offer Participants should note that acceptances in respect of the Partial Offer are irrevocable except in circumstances contemplated in regulation 105(2) of the Takeover Regulations, namely if the Partial Offer (i) has not been declared wholly unconditional by midnight on the 65th Business Day after the Offer Opening Date (i.e. Thursday, 16 March 2023), (ii) has not been declared unconditional as to acceptances, and (iii) still remains subject to other conditions. Therefore, once a Partial Offer Participant has accepted the Partial Offer, they will not be able to trade their AfroCentric Shares until the Partial Offer is implemented or, if applicable, their acceptance is withdrawn in circumstances contemplated in regulation 105(2) of the Takeover Regulations. Offer Participants who have withdrawn an acceptance of the Partial Offer in circumstances contemplated in regulation 105(2) of the Takeover Regulations may subsequently again accept the Partial Offer at any time on or prior to the last day to trade in order to be eligible to participate in the Partial Offer, expected to be on Tuesday, 23 May 2023, but should note that, in accordance with regulation 105(4) of the Takeover Regulations, they may withdraw such acceptance and re-accept the Partial Offer only once. 6.
