RESULTS OF DIVIDEND ELECTION

RDI shareholders are referred to the announcement released on 21 May 2018 regarding the election being offered to receive the interim dividend of 1.35 pence per share in respect of the six months ended 28 February 2018 as either a cash dividend or a scrip dividend by way of an issue of new RDI shares (of the same class as existing shares) credited as fully paid up ('Scrip Dividend').

The Company is pleased to announce that election forms for 282,107,974 ordinary shares of 8 pence each in the Company ('Ordinary Shares') have been received, representing a 14.9 per cent take up by shareholders, for which 9,371,173 Scrip Dividend shares are to be issued, being 0.5 per cent of the current issued share capital of the Company.

An application will be made for the Scrip Dividend shares, which will rank pari passuin all respects with the Company's existing issued Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to the Premium Segment of the Official List of the United Kingdom Listing Authority, to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed securities and to be listed on the JSE ('Admission'). It is expected that Admission will occur on Monday, 25 June 2018.

This announcement is being made ahead of the proposed schedule, prior to Admission.

Following Admission, and further to the share buyback programme which has now completed, the total number of voting rights will be 1,900,449,536. All shares acquired under the buyback programme have been cancelled and no Ordinary Shares are held in treasury. The figure of 1,900,449,536 Ordinary Shares may then be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
