   (1) Expressed as a percentage of the total number of shares voted at the Annual General Meeting.
   (2) Expressed as a percentage of Libstar Issued Ordinary Shares, being 681 921 408.


   The Board notes, with disappointment, the outcome of the voting on the 2020 Remuneration Policy and
   Implementation Report.

   “We have engaged with shareholders in regard to Libstar’s remuneration policy and practices and will
   continue to do so, in order to understand the exact issues and concerns of shareholders. The outcomes
   of these engagements have and will be taken into account in formulating the appropriate remuneration
   policy and approach for Libstar” said Sandeep Khanna, Chairman of the Remuneration Committee.


   As ordinary resolution number 5, relating to the non-binding advisory endorsement on Libstar’s
   Remuneration Policy, and ordinary resolution number 6 relating to the remuneration implementation report
   have been voted against by shareholders exercising more than 25% of the voting rights exercised, Libstar
   extends an invitation to dissenting shareholders to engage with the Company by forwarding their
   concerns/questions to Mr CB de Villiers on email compsecretary@libstar.co.za by close of business on
   30 June 2021.
