UPDATE ON MIX TELEMATICS COMPETITION COMMISSION MATTER


Johannesburg, South Africa – 16 April 2019 – MiX Telematics, a leading global provider of fleet and mobile asset
management solutions delivered as Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS"), informs shareholders that the South African
Competition Commission ("Commission") has referred its investigation, which was initiated in November 2016, to
the South African Competition Tribunal ("Tribunal").

MiX Telematics has cooperated fully with the Commission throughout its investigation and is currently studying the
contents of the referral to the Tribunal, received late yesterday afternoon.

"MiX Telematics has worked closely with its legal advisors during this process and are disappointed at the
Commission's decision to refer the matter," commented Stefan Joselowitz, CEO of MiX Telematics. "As previously
disclosed to shareholders, the investigation concerns MiX Telematics' relationship with some of our channel partners
in South Africa. We remain of the opinion that the relationship with our channel partners is entirely in line with
accepted competition principles."

Should the Tribunal rule against MiX Telematics, the Company may be liable to an administrative penalty in terms of
the Competition Act.

"We continue to believe that the referral from the Commission is without merit. While the Company cannot predict
the timing of a resolution or the ultimate outcome of the matter, we are confident that we have consistently adhered to
all applicable laws and regulations," added Mr. Joselowitz.

Shareholders will be informed of the outcome of the referral to the Tribunal.
