DEALINGS IN SECURITIES BY EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS, PRESCRIBED OFFICERS AND COMPANY
SECRETARY: GRANT OF RESTRICTED SHARES

In terms of paragraphs 3.63 - 3.66 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, the following
information is disclosed in respect of the grant and acceptance of Restricted Shares in off-market
transactions to the executive directors, prescribed officers and company secretary of Nedbank Group
Limited on 17 and 18 March 2022.

This grant is in terms of the Nedbank Group (2005) Share Option, Matched Share and Restricted Share
Scheme first approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting on 4 May 2005, with updated
rules thereafter being approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting on 10 May 2018. The
Restricted Shares are Nedbank Group ordinary shares that are issued at no cost to eligible employees
at the volume-weighted average price (R218.16) for the three trading days ended 11 March 2022,
being the three trading days immediately after the publication of Nedbank Group’s 2021 results.
These Restricted Shares are held on an indirect beneficial basis and participants are eligible for
dividends from the date of grant thereof.

In terms of the Nedbank Group (2005) Share Option, Matched Share and Restricted Share Scheme,
the executive directors, prescribed officers and company secretary have no discretion in relation to
the number of Restricted Shares awarded nor the price at which such Restricted Shares are awarded.

                                                    ---

From 2014, 100% of awards of Restricted Shares to Executive Directors have been subject to
performance conditions, and from 2019 100% of awards to all other Group Exco members have also
been subject to performance conditions.

Upon careful consideration of the exceptional circumstances during the COVID-related environment,
in 2021 the Nedbank Group Remuneration Committee reviewed the mix of performance and time-
based awards and decided that for all Group Exco members (including executive directors and
prescribed officers) 80% of the 2021 grants of Restricted Shares (which were issued on 25-26 March
2021) would be subject to performance-based vesting criteria and 20% would be subject to time-
based vesting criteria that collectively will determine the proportion of the grant that finally vests on
26-27 March 2024.

For the grant of Restricted Shares in 2022, awards to Group Exco members will revert to being 100%
subject to performance-based vesting criteria. In addition, the Nedbank Group Remuneration
Committee increased the percentage of awards to Cluster Exco members that is subject to
performance-based vesting criteria from 60% to 75%.

The March 2022 Restricted Share awards for the executive directors, prescribed officers and company
secretary are set out below:
