The special resolutions will be lodged with the Companies and Intellectual Property Registration Office for registration. Sasol elected to convene the general meeting knowing that the proposed amendments to the JSE's rules and requirements and the proposed amendments to the Strate rules and directives ("Proposed New Requirements") have not yet been formally approved and understanding that as a result, if there are material  changes, the JSE may request Sasol to issue a supplementary circular or additional announcement/s. Sasol also appreciates that until the Proposed New Requirements are approved, legally the JSE cannot approve the listing of the Sasol BEE Ordinary Shares on the BEE Segment. However, the JSE has indicated that it has no reason at this time to consider that there will be material changes to the Proposed New Requirements, and if there are no such changes, it will after the Proposed New Requirements have come into force, approve the listing of the Sasol BEE Ordinary Shares on the BEE Segment.

A further announcement will be made when the JSE formally approves the listing of the Sasol BEE Ordinary Shares on the BEE Segment and the necessary Proposed New Requirements are formally approved.
