APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Clicks Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Richard Inskip as an
independent non-executive director with effect from 1 July 2023.

Richard is a highly experienced senior executive and entrepreneur whose 35-
year career in the retail sector included serving as chief operating officer for both

roles, including operations and financial services director with responsibility for

strategy. He served as an executive director of Woolworths Holdings for seven
years.

He spent several years as an independent consultant and entrepreneur, during
which time he co-founded two businesses in the retail and logistics sectors. After
consulting to Massmart, he joined the company as a full-time executive in 2017
and retired as chief operating officer in 2022.

Richard is currently a non-executive director of listed property group Hyprop
Investments Limited and previously served as a non-executive director of AVI

Goods Council of South Africa.

Clicks Group chairman David Nurek said: “Richard is an experienced board
director with wide-ranging experience in specialist areas of retail across
technology, e-commerce, data management, supply chain, strategy and
operations. He has current and highly relevant retail expertise, having retired
from his most recent executive role last year, and we believe he will add
significant value to our board deliberations and debate.”

The Clicks Group board will now comprise eight independent non-executive
directors and two executive directors, with 60% black and 40% female
representation on the board.
