MODIFICATION OF SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 1 TO BE PROPOSED FOR ADOPTION AT THE
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF EQUITES


Shareholders are referred to the Equites notice of annual general meeting which was distributed to shareholders on
30 June 2022, and in particular to special resolution number 1 proposing the approval of the
non-executive directors fees for their services as directors.

In addition to the annual fee and per meeting fee proposed to be paid to non-executive directors, special resolution
number 1 proposed an additional amount of R2000 per hour to be paid to non-executive directors in respect of work
performed by then as required by extraordinary circumstances, provided that the payment in respect of any such
additional work is approved by the Company’s remuneration and nomination committee.

Shareholders are advised that following feedback received from shareholders, Equites has decided to remove the
proposal for the payment of such additional amount from special resolution number 1.

Accordingly, Equites has modified special resolution number 1, as set out below, for shareholders to consider and, if
deemed fit, adopt with or without modification, at the annual general meeting.

SPECIAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 1

executive directors be and are fixed as follows:

* Note the chairperson of the board only receives a base fee and does not receive any fees for serving on any of the
committees.”.
