*The total annual remuneration of the executive directors for 2024 was R54,6 million.

1Other Benefits include security services, long service awards, private travel and other once off costs on which fringe benefit tax is levied where required.
2Short-term incentives approved based on the Group results for 2026 and payable in the 2027 financial year. Incentives are calculated as a percentage of total guaranteed package/base salary as at 30 June 2026 x role category % x [(Group STI achievement x 80%) + (Individual Performance Achievement x 20%) – fatality penalty].
3Long-term incentives gains for 2026 includes the Renewable energy (RE) grant awards made during financial year 2021 (where measurement was postponed to a day no later than 31 December 2026), the annual and retention (Mr Bruns) awards made in August 2023 and EVP Restricted (RLTI) award made in September 2021. The illustrative amount is calculated in terms of the number of LTIs x Corporate performance target achieved where relevant (RLTI and RE: 100%; Performance GEC: 72%) x June 2026 average share price. The actual vesting date for the awards is between 28 August 2026 and 27 September 2026 subject to the company being in an open period. Dividend equivalents accrue at the end of the vesting period, to the extent that the LTIs vest. 50% of the vested LTIs and accrued dividends will be released in 2026 and the balance in 2028, subject to the rules of the LTI plan. As there are no further performance conditions attached to the balance of the 50%, the full amount is disclosed in the total earned remuneration table.
4The Remuneration Committee approved market-related salary adjustments, where appropriate and in line with the Policy, in addition to annual salary increases, to support the continued competitiveness of the Group’s remuneration structure.
5Mr Bruns was appointed as CFO from 1 September 2024. The disclosed prior year remuneration is thus apportioned.
6Mr Rossouw stepped down as executive director and CFO effective 31 August 2024. All unvested LTIs were forfeited upon his resignation.

*The total intrinsic value of the executive directors' unvested LTI holdings for 2024 was R46,5 million.

1Intrinsic values at the beginning and end of the year have been determined using the closing price of:

30 June 2026 R161,66

30 June 2025 R78,76

Change in intrinsic value for the year results from changes in the share price.

2LTIs granted on 8 September 2025.
3Long-term incentives settled represent long-term incentives that vested with reference to the group results for 2025 that was settled in the 2026 financial year. The full amount of the remaining 50% that vested in the current year is disclosed in the total earned remuneration table. It also included the second tranche of awards which vested in 2023(on which there were no further performance conditions) and the restricted awards, both granted in 2020. The difference between the long-term incentive gains disclosed in 2025 and the amount settled in 2026 is due to difference in actual share price at vesting date and the share price at date of disclosure.
4The balance includes 22 761 awards granted in 2021, with the associated renewable energy CPT deferred to 31 December 2026.

A non-taxable payment to her previous employer with respect to a work-back agreement is included in the amount to the value of R5,4 million. The Sasol buy-out agreement for all payments is linked to a work-back period.

1Fees exclude VAT.
2Board and Committee fees are denominated in US dollars and are therefore subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. For Non-Executive Directors permanently resident outside Europe, the United Kingdom and North America, the Rand/US$ exchange rate applicable to Board and Committee fees was fixed for the first half of 2026 using the average exchange rate for the period July 2023 to December 2024. The exchange rate applicable to the second half of 2026 was fixed using the average exchange rate for the period July 2024 to December 2025. In addition, a cost-of-living adjustment is applied to the fees of these directors.

To reduce the impact of currency volatility on Non-Executive Directors permanently resident in Europe, the United Kingdom and North America, the US$/EUR and US$/GBP exchange rates applicable to Board and Committee fees were fixed for quarter 2, quarter 3 and quarter 4 using the prevailing average exchange rates at the time the fees were approved. The approved fee values were thereafter converted to US dollars for payment.
