SHARE INCENTIVE SCHEMES VESTING: DEALINGS IN SECURITIES BY DIRECTORS AND

Datatec announces the following in relation to its share incentive schemes:
1) CONDITIONAL SHARE PLAN (“CSP”)
The CSP was approved by shareholders at the Company’s annual general
meeting held on 14 September 2017.
The CSP awards granted in June 2020 had two performance conditions: an
underlying EPS growth condition applying to one-third of the award and a
Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) condition applying to two-thirds of the
award.
The Remuneration Committee has determined that 100% of the June 2020 CSP
awards would vest on 1 June 2023 as both performance conditions have been
achieved.
Accordingly, the off-market transfer of 2,974,217 Datatec shares to
participants in the June 2020 CSP has been initiated on 1 June 2023.
