(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)

(“enX” or “the Company”)


DECLARATION OF A SPECIAL DISTRIBUTION OF R1.50 PER SHARE


enX has closed the disposal of two businesses in the past 14 months, namely Impact Fork Trucks Ltd and EIE Group
Proprietary Limited. These disposals collectively realised net cash proceeds of c.R1,338million. Of these proceeds,
c.R350million has been applied to recapitalising Eqstra Fleet Management and Logistics, c.R364million as a distribution
and R50million to repay debt, while c.R220million is restricted – a result of collateral related to warranties and
indemnities and to secure capital commitments. The directors of enX regard the balance of these proceeds as surplus to
the requirements of enX. Accordingly, it has resolved to declare a special distribution of R1.50 per enX share (the
“Distribution”) which will be implemented by way of a reduction of contributed tax capital, as defined in the Income
Tax Act No. 58 of 1962 (as amended), to enX ordinary shareholders that are recorded as such on Friday, 19 August 2022.
Distributions from contributed tax capital which are not dividends as defined, do not attract withholding taxes in South
Africa. Application has been made to the exchange control division of the South African Reserve Bank for approval of the
Distribution. Once received, the finalisation information pertaining to the payment of the Distribution will be communicated
to shareholders.
