GENERAL REPURCHASE OF ORDINARY SHARES: SUBSEQUENT 3% REPURCHASE

1.     Introduction

Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on SENS on 2 September 2026
(“Previous Announcement”), in which Aspen advised that it had cumulatively repurchased
13 330 879 ordinary shares, representing approximately 3.0% of the Company’s issued share
capital as at 4 December 2025, being the date on which the general authority to repurchase
shares was granted by shareholders (“General Authority”).

In compliance with paragraph 7.90 of the JSE Listings Requirements and pursuant to the General
Authority, Aspen advises that, since the Previous Announcement, the Company has repurchased
a further 14 992 000 ordinary shares, representing a further approximately 3.3% of the
Company’s issued share capital as at 4 December 2025 (“Subsequent Repurchase”).

Accordingly, Aspen has now cumulatively repurchased 28 322 879 ordinary shares, representing
approximately 6.3% of the Company’s issued share capital as at the date on which the General
Authority was granted.

The share repurchases reflect Aspen’s disciplined capital allocation approach and confidence in
the Company’s long-term value creation prospects.

     -   the Company and the Group will be able to pay their debts in the ordinary course of
         business;
     -   the total assets of the Company and the Group will be in excess of the liabilities of the
         Company and the Group. For this purpose, the assets and liabilities were recognised and
         measured in accordance with the accounting policies used in the latest audited annual
         group financial statements;
     -   the share capital, reserves and working capital of the Company and the Group will be
         adequate for ordinary business purposes; and
     -   the Company and the Group have passed the solvency and liquidity test and since the test
         was performed there have been no material changes in the financial position of the Group.

5.       Impact of the General Repurchase on Financial Information

The Subsequent Repurchase and related transaction costs have had no material impact on the
financial information of Aspen and will result in a decrease in the Company’s cash balances
corresponding to the approximate value of the ordinary shares repurchased.
