Please ensure your question is received by us no later than 5:00pm (UK time) on Friday 17 May 2024 if you would like your question answered before the proxy voting deadline. Your questions and answers will be published on our GM Hub at plc.quilter.com/gm in advance of the proxy voting deadline.

We also recommend that shareholders appoint a proxy and register a voting instruction online or using their Proxy Form/Voting Instruction Form in advance of the meeting. Please follow the instructions, including voting deadlines, on the documents sent to you.
There is a telephone line for shareholders to be able to join the meeting and also have the opportunity to ask any questions on the business of the meeting.

Guidance Notes
When reading these notes, please take into account the arrangements for this year's meeting which are set out in Your Questions Answered in the Notice. Please ensure you check our GM Hub at plc.quilter.com/gm for up to date information about our AGM arrangements.
1. Eligibility to attend and vote
You will have the right to attend, speak and vote at the AGM if your name
appears on the register of members of the Company as at 6:30pm (UK time) on Tuesday 21 May 2024. Changes to the register of members after this time will be
disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend, speak and vote at the AGM. A member is entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. A proxy need not be a member
of the Company.
We have made arrangements for shareholders to join the meeting by telephone. Please see Information for shareholders above for more information including how you can ask a question in advance of the meeting. Please note that
shareholders joining by telephone will not be able to vote during the meeting
and are encouraged to appoint the Chair of the meeting, or other named individual of your choice, as proxy, with voting instructions.
2. Notice and Resolutions
Details of the resolutions and the biographies setting out the skills and experience of each of the Directors standing for re-election are set out in the Notice.
3. Vote Withheld
The "Vote Withheld" option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "Vote Withheld"
is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.
4. Appointing multiple proxies
If you wish to appoint more than one proxy contact our Registrar, JSE Investor Services, whose contact details are below.
5. Proxy discretion
If you have not given specific instructions on how your proxy should vote
in respect of any resolution, your proxy will have discretion to vote or abstain on that resolution, as they see fit.
Your proxy can vote, or abstain from voting, as they decide on any other business (including any motion to amend a resolution or adjourn the meeting) which may validly come before the meeting.
6. Corporate representatives
If a shareholder is a corporation, the proxy should be given under the common seal or under the hand of an officer or attorney duly authorised in writing.
7. Joint shareholders
In the case of joint holders, any joint holder may sign this Proxy Form, but the vote of the person whose name appears first in the register of members in respect of the holding or his/her proxy will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of other joint holders or their proxies. If someone signs on your behalf, they must return with this Proxy Form the authority under which it is signed (or a copy of the authority certified by a solicitor or notary).
8. Submission of proxy appointment online
You may submit the appointment of your proxy online by visiting plc.quilter.com/vote and following the on-screen instructions. For security purposes, shareholders will need to provide their Postcode/Country code and SRN which are printed on their Proxy Form to validate the submission of their
proxy online.
9. Returning paper Proxy Forms
You should return your signed, dated and completed Proxy Form to JSE Investor Services, at the address below, to reach their office by no later than
12:00 noon (SA time) on Tuesday 21 May 2024.
Please do not use this Proxy Form to communicate a change of address or any other notifications. Please contact JSE Investor Services separately and they will
be pleased to help you.
10. Attending in person after submitting a Proxy Form
Submitting a Proxy Form in advance does not prevent you from attending and voting at the meeting in person.
11. Electronic communications
Please note that any electronic communication, including an electronic Proxy Form, found to contain a computer virus will not be accepted.
