| Notes: |
1. |
A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the general meeting is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to
attend, speak and vote in his/her stead. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the company. |
| 2. |
Every shareholder present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the general meeting of the company shall,
on a show of hands, have one vote only, irrespective of the number of shares such shareholder holds. In the event
of a poll, every shareholder shall be entitled to that proportion of the total votes in the company which the
aggregate amount of the nominal value of the shares held by such shareholder bears to the aggregate amount of
the nominal value of all the shares issued by the company.

| Instructions on signing and lodging this form of proxy: |
1. |
A certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder may insert the name of a proxy or the names of two
alternative proxies of the certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder’s choice in the space/s provided
overleaf, with or without deleting “the chairman of the general meeting”, but any such deletion must be initialled
by the certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder. Should this space be left blank, the proxy will be
exercised by the chairman of the general meeting. The person whose name appears first on this form of proxy and
who is present at the general meeting will be entitled to act as proxy to the exclusion of those whose names follow.
|
2. |
A certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder‘s voting instructions to the proxy must be indicated by
the insertion of an “X”, or, the number of votes exercisable by that certificated or “own name” dematerialised
shareholder in the appropriate spaces provided overleaf. Failure to do so will be deemed to authorise the proxy to
vote or to abstain from voting at the general meeting, as he/she thinks fit in respect of all the certificated or “own
name” dematerialised shareholder’s exercisable votes. A certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder or
his/her proxy is not obliged to use all the votes exercisable by him/her or by his/her proxy, but the total number of
votes cast, or those in respect of which abstention is recorded, may not exceed the total number of votes
exercisable by the certificated or “own name” dematerialised shareholder or by his/her proxy.
