Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights

Further to the approval of Resolution 2 at the AGM, the Company is proceeding with the issue of the Second Fundraising Shares pursuant to the terms of the Fundraising, full details of which were announced on 26 October 2021.

Accordingly, application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the 5,434,676 Second Fundraising Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission") and to the Johannesburg Stock Exchange for quotation on AltX. It is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Second Fundraising Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 1 December 2021.

Following Admission, the Company's total issued ordinary share capital will comprise 79,130,649 Ordinary Shares with voting rights. This figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company's share capital pursuant to the Company's Constitution.

Further to the approval of Resolution 3 at the AGM, the Company will shortly proceed to issue 1,500,000 adviser options to Bennelong Corporate Limited on the terms and conditions contained within Annexure A to the Explanatory Statement (the "Adviser Options"). The Adviser Options are exercisable at 5 pence per share up to and including 30 November 2023.
