DECLARATION OF DIVIDEND

Shareholders are advised that the board has resolved to declare a final gross cash dividend of R10.50 per ordinary share amounting to R8.9 billion at the date of declaration, for the financial year ended 30 June 2022. The dividend has been declared from retained earnings. In terms of the approved dividend policy, a minimum dividend of 30% of free cash flow pre-growth capital should be declared. The board has the discretion to vary this percentage depending on the current and forecast financial performance, as well as market and other factors, including sufficiently capitalising the business to allow the Group to take advantage of future value-accretive growth opportunities. As a result of improved profitability and strong cash flow generation on the back of strong metal pricing and sustained operational performance, the board has increased the dividend to approximately 45% of adjusted free cash flow, in line with its commitment to prioritise returns to shareholders.

Implats has 850 702 822 ordinary shares in issue and the Company's tax reference number is 9700178719. The cash dividend will be subject to a 20% dividend withholding tax for shareholders who are not exempt from, or do not qualify for, a reduced rate of withholding tax. Therefore, the net dividend amount is R8.40 per ordinary share for shareholders liable to pay the dividend withholding tax and R10.50 per ordinary share for shareholders exempt from dividend withholding tax. Shareholders are advised to complete the requisite declaration form to make the Company aware of their tax status.
