Shareholders are referred to the 25th annual general meeting to be held on Tuesday 21 July

Vodacom reiterates that the health and wellbeing of our staff and shareholders are paramount.
Notwithstanding the declaration by the South African Government of an advanced level 3
lockdown set of regulations which do allow for conferencing, subject to strict health
requirements, Vodacom has taken note of the continued increase in the infection rate for
COVID-19. To protect shareholders and staff, the 25th annual general meeting will now be held
in electronic form only as permitted by the company’s memorandum of incorporation.

       Shareholders are strongly encouraged to submit votes by proxy before the meeting. If
       shareholders wish to participate in the 25th annual general meeting, they should instruct
       their CSDP or broker to issue them with the necessary letter of representation to

       agreement. These instructions must be provided to the CSDP or broker by the cut-off
       time and date advised by the CSDP or broker, to accommodate such requests.

   3. TMS will assist shareholders with the requirements for electronic participation in, and/or
      voting at, the 25th annual general meeting. TMS is further obliged to validate (in
