1. Long-Term Incentive Plan ("the LTIP")
Shareholders and noteholders are reminded that on 15 and 16 March 2022, the Executive Directors,
the Prescribed Officer, the Company Secretary and the Directors of the major subsidiaries of the
Company accepted rights to participate in the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) – 2022
allocation.
The specified performance conditions related to this scheme have been met and vesting occurred on
31 December 2024.
The value of the vested performance shares in respect of the LTIP 2022 allocation was based on the
performance outcomes and the 30-day VWAP as at 31 December 2024. The after-tax value has been
utilised to purchase the shares. The number of LHC shares per participant was based on the average
3-day VWAP of 2,3 and 6 January 2025 of R16.6793 (allocation value), which would have been the
LHC share price had the Company been able to purchase the shares at that time.
A total of 5,835,437 of the purchased Life Healthcare shares have been acquired on market and will be
transferred to the trading account of the respective recipients, based on the proportionate value vesting.
The number of shares to be delivered to the personal trading account on an off-market basis for the
Executive Directors, the Prescribed Officer, the Company Secretary and the Directors of the major
subsidiaries of the Company, respectively, which will be held directly beneficial, is as follows:

2. Single Incentive Plan ("the SIP")
As previously communicated to the market, the board of directors of the Company has approved the
introduction of the Single Incentive Plan, to incentivise and retain Eligible Employees. The first vesting
of the FY2024 allocation occurred on 26 November 2024. The participants were awarded restricted
Life Healthcare shares which will vest over the prescribed periods.
The calculation of the SIP was done by utilising the value of the deferral for each participant divided by
the Company's closing share price on 26 November 2024 of R17.66, after the Company's financial year
end results were announced. This would have been the purchase price per share had the Company
not been in a closed period. In terms of this the total number of shares to be allocated to the individuals
was 10,942,813.
A total of 9,855,621 Life Healthcare shares were acquired on market at an average price of R16.146
and a further 1,087,192 LHC shares was allocated from the shares held in trust from previously forfeited
shares.
Below are the restricted shares allocated on an off-market basis to each of the Executive Directors,
Prescribed Officer, Company Secretary and Directors of the major subsidiaries of the Company, which
will be held directly as a beneficial shareholding in accordance with the respective vesting
arrangements.
