CHANGES TO THE BOARD AT THE UPCOMING ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING


Shareholders are referred to the announcement published on SENS on 13 October 2023,
notifying shareholders of the Company’s annual general meeting, scheduled for
7 December 2023 (“AGM”), and the notice of AGM distributed to shareholders, dated
13 October 2023 (“Notice”).

In compliance with paragraph 3.59 of the JSE Listings Requirements, shareholders are hereby
advised that Mr Mark Olivier (“Mark”), who will retire by rotation at the AGM (in terms of the
Company’s memorandum of incorporation and the JSE Listings Requirements), has indicated
that he will no longer be making himself available for re-election as a director of Trellidor.
Mark’s aforementioned retirement will occur with effect from the conclusion of the AGM.

Mark has served the Company as the chairman of its board of directors (“Board”) for over
16 years, and the Board is indebted to him for his exemplary leadership over this period. The
Board would like to thank Mark for his valuable contribution to the Company and wishes him
well in his future endeavours.

While the Board believes that continuity in the leadership of the Company is of critical
importance, it also recognises the need to introduce fresh ideas and perspectives in relation
to the Company’s businesses.

The Board has identified a suitable candidate to fill the vacancy which will result from Mark’s
retirement, and it intends to appoint Mr Kevin Hodgson (“Kevin”) as a non-executive director
of the Company following the conclusion of the AGM. Shareholders will be advised of Kevin’s
formal appointment via SENS.

Kevin is a qualified charted accountant who gained commercial experience working for
Goldfields and Murray & Roberts before entering the private equity sector where he was
involved in multiple transactions in retail. In 1998, Kevin was appointed as CEO of the
Holdsport Group, where he led the growth and expansion of the business under private and
listed ownership, until 2018. Kevin is currently a director and the chairman of the investment
committee of Fortuna Investments Holdings and serves on the board of directors of a number
of private companies.

Kevin’s experience and skills in managing the Holdsport Group, which incorporates retail,
wholesale, manufacturing, distribution and e-commerce businesses, will be particularly
relevant to the Company and will further bolster the Board’s expertise. The Board looks
forward to Kevin’s future contributions to the Company.

In light of the above, ordinary resolution number 1 (relating to Mark’s re-election as a non-
executive director of the Company) and ordinary resolution number 4 (relating to Mark’s re-
appointment as a member of the audit, risk and compliance committee of the Company) as
included in the Notice, will be withdrawn at the AGM. The resulting vacancies on the relevant
Board committees will be filled in due course and announced on SENS. For the avoidance of
doubt, all duly completed forms of proxy, in the form attached to the Notice, will remain valid
for purposes of the AGM.
