NOTIFICATION OF A CHANGE TO THE COMPANY’S CREDIT RATING: EVENT - DRIVEN
RATING ACTION

Senior Unsecured Floating Rate Noteholders are advised that Standard & Poor’s Global
Ratings (“S&P”) downgraded the credit rating of WHL with effect from 15 April 2020. The
event-driven rating action, prompted by the effects of COVID-19 and the South African
Sovereign ratings downgrade, has resulted in the credit rating being revised from ‘zaA+’ to
‘zaA- (Credit Watch Negative)’ on a long term national scale basis.
