DEALINGS IN SECURITIES BY A DIRECTOR

In compliance with paragraphs 3.63 to 3.74 of the JSE Limited (“JSE”) Listings Requirements and paragraphs 6.45
to 6.56 of the JSE Debt and Specialist Securities Listings Requirements, the following information is disclosed.

Shareholders and noteholders are referred to the announcements released on the Stock Exchange News Service
(“SENS”) of the JSE, with the most recent being on 24 June 2024, related to hedging transactions entered into by
Mr Adrian Gore over a portion of his shareholding in Discovery. The hedging arrangements were established to
fund participation in various rights offers and subscriptions for Discovery ordinary shares over time.

The collar arrangement forming part of these hedging transactions, which included call options on Discovery
ordinary shares as announced on SENS on 24 June 2024, was approaching maturity. As the current Discovery
share price exceeds the strike price of the call options, Mr Gore has terminated the collar early and replaced it
with a new collar arrangement (see Transactions 2 and 3 below). The termination of the collar has led to the sale
of a portion of Discovery shares (see Transaction 1 below). Importantly these sales relate solely to a portion of
Mr Gore’s shareholding that was subject to the maturing collar.
