1The final number of shares to be settled in cash could only be determined once employees had elected whether to sell their shares upon vesting. Accordingly, at the modification date of 20 August 2025, the cash-settled portion was estimated based on the expected elections, subject to the R350 million cap approved by the Remuneration Committee. The movement in the estimated cash-settled liability between 20 August 2025 and the vesting date of 6 September 2025, when the actual employee elections became available, was not material. The liability was ultimately recognised and settled based on the actual amount paid.
