NORTHAM SECURES R1 BILLION OF ADDITIONAL FUNDING FACILITIES

Northam is pleased to announce that it has increased its existing revolving credit facilities (“RCF”) by R500
million, from R3 billion to R3.5 billion. In addition a new R500 million general banking facility (“GBF”) has been
secured.

The maturity date of Northam’s existing R1 billion RCF has been extended to match that of its existing R2
billion RCF and both of these facilities, as well as the R500 million increase, have been combined into a single
R3.5 billion RCF maturing on 29 November 2021. The interest rate on the total RCF remains unchanged and
the GBF will accrue interest at a variable rate of prime less 1.5%.

Paul Dunne, Northam’s Chief Executive said “The R1 billion increase in available facilities is in addition to
the placement of R1.65 billion of domestic medium term notes announced on 16 April 2019, and further
strengthens Northam’s balance sheet. This additional funding flexibility will enable Northam to further return
value to shareholders, in due course, through a repurchase of ordinary shares and/or a purchase of Zambezi
preference shares”.
