Electronic participation

Given the risks arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the General Meeting, convened in terms of the Notice of General Meeting, will be held entirely by electronic communication, as permitted by the JSE, the provisions of the Companies Act and the MOI on Monday, 29 November 2021, commencing at 10:00.

In this respect, the Company has retained the services of the Transfer Secretaries, Computershare, to facilitate the General Meeting on an interactive electronic platform in order to facilitate remote participation and voting by Shareholders. The Transfer Secretaries will also act as scrutineer.

Shareholders who wish to participate in the General Meeting, including proxy holders, will be required to submit the duly completed Electronic Participation Form, found on page 23 of this Circular, together with the relevant documents to Computershare at [email protected], as provided for on the form by no later than 10:00 on Friday, 26 November 2021. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to complete their verification well ahead of time.

Once your shareholding, identity and authority (if the shareholder is not an individual) have been verified by Computershare, you will be provided with details on how to join the General Meeting. A live voting function will not be available and shareholders will be required to send their duly completed proxy forms to Computershare via email by 10:00 on Friday, 26 November 2021 for administrative purposes. Any proxy forms not delivered by this time may be forwarded to the Transfer Secretaries at any time prior to the commencement of voting on any resolutions proposed at the General Meeting.

Shareholders that choose not to participate in the General Meeting can still submit their proxy forms as usual.

The Transfer Secretaries will assist Shareholders with the requirements for electronic participation at the General Meeting. The Transfer Secretaries are further obliged to validate (in correspondence with the Company), each such Shareholder’s entitlement to participate at the General Meeting before providing such Shareholder with the necessary means to access the General Meeting. For further information in this regard, please see the details contained in the Notice of General Meeting.

While the Company will incur all costs for the hosting of the General Meeting by way of a remote interactive electronic platform, Shareholders will be liable for their own network charges in relation to electronic participation at the General Meeting. Any such charges will not be for the account of the Company or the Transfer Secretaries. None of the Company or the Transfer Secretaries can be held accountable in the case of loss of network connectivity or other network failure due to insufficient airtime, internet connectivity, internet bandwidth and /or power outages which prevents any such Shareholder from electronically participating at the General Meeting.

If you have dematerialised your Shares other than “own-name” registration:

(a) Voting at the General Meeting

  • i. Your CSDP/broker is obliged to contact you in the manner stipulated in the agreement concluded between you and your CSDP/broker to ascertain how you wish to cast your vote at the General Meeting and thereafter to cast your vote in accordance with your instructions.

  • ii. If you have not been contacted, it would be advisable for you to contact your CSDP/broker and furnish it with your voting instructions.

  • iii. If your CSDP/broker does not obtain voting instructions from you, it will be obliged to vote in accordance with the instructions contained in the agreement concluded between you and your CSDP/broker.

  • iv. You should NOT complete the attached proxy form.

1

(b) Attendance and representation at the General Meeting

  • i. If you wish to attend the General Meeting, you must advise your CSDP/broker in accordance with the agreement concluded between you and your CSDP/broker, and your CSDP/broker will issue you with the necessary letter of representation for you to attend the General Meeting.

  • ii. Unless you advise your CSDP/broker, in accordance with the terms of the agreement concluded between you and your CSDP/broker, that you wish to attend the General Meeting and have been provided with a letter of representation from it or instructed it to send its proxy to represent you at the General Meeting, your CSDP/broker may assume that you do not wish to attend the General Meeting and act in accordance with the agreement between you and your CSDP/broker.

If you have not dematerialised your Shares or you have dematerialised your Shares with “own-name” registration:

(c) Voting, attendance and representation at the General Meeting

  • i. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to submit votes by proxy before the General Meeting.

  • ii. You are, however, entitled to attend the General Meeting by electronic communication and may speak at the General Meeting.

  • iii. For clarity, a live voting function will not be available and shareholders will be required to send their duly completed proxy forms to Computershare via email by 10:00 on Friday, 26 November 2021 for administrative purposes. Any proxy forms not delivered by this time may be forwarded to the Transfer Secretaries at any time prior to the commencement of voting on any resolutions proposed at the General Meeting.

  • iv. If you are unable to attend the General Meeting, you may appoint a proxy to represent you at the General Meeting by completing the attached proxy form in accordance with the instructions it contains and returning it to the Transfer Secretaries to be received by email at [email protected] by no later than 10:00 on Friday, 26 November 2021, for administrative purposes. Any proxy forms not delivered by this time may be forwarded to the Transfer Secretaries at any time prior to the commencement of voting on any resolutions proposed at the General Meeting. Where there are joint holders of Shares, any one of such persons may vote at the General Meeting in respect of such Shares as if that person is solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders are present or represented at the General Meeting, the person whose name appears first in the Register in respect of such Shares or its/his/her proxy, as the case may be, shall alone be entitled to vote in respect of such Shares.

If you wish to dematerialise your Shares, please contact your broker.

Identification of Shareholders and proxies

In terms of section 63(1) of the Companies Act, before any person may participate in the General Meeting, that person must present reasonably satisfactory identification and the person presiding at the General Meeting must be reasonably satisfied that the right of the person to participate and vote at the General Meeting, either as an Invicta Shareholder, or as a proxy or a representative for an Invicta Shareholder, has been reasonably verified. Acceptable forms of identification include a valid green-bar coded or smart card identification document issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs, a South African driver’s licence or a valid passport. Only those Shareholders who are fully verified (as required in terms of section 63(1) of the Companies Act) and subsequently registered at the commencement of the General Meeting with the Transfer Secretaries in accordance with what is set out above, will be allowed to participate by electronic means.

CIRCULAR TO INVICTA SHAREHOLDERS

1. INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE OF THE CIRCULAR

Shareholders are advised that the Board proposes, subject to Shareholder approval, the Specific Repurchases.

The purpose of the Circular is to provide Shareholders with relevant information relating to the Specific Repurchases, as well as to convene the General Meeting, to be held virtually for the purposes of considering and, if deemed fit, passing, with or without modification, the resolutions contained in the Notice of General Meeting, to approve and implement the Specific Repurchases.

2. DETAILS OF THE SPECIFIC REPURCHASES

2.1 Background

In terms of clause 15 of the MOI, the Company may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act and the JSE Listings Requirements, acquire Shares issued by the Company.

The Companies Act requires the following resolutions to approve the Specific Repurchases:

  • a Board resolution in terms of section 48(2)(a) of the Companies Act;

  • a Board resolution in terms of section 46 of the Companies Act of the kind described in paragraph 9.2 hereunder; and

  • the adoption of Special Resolution Number 1 described in the Notice of General Meeting in terms of section 48(8)(a) of the Companies Act.

The Board has in terms of section 48(2)(a) of the Companies Act, subject to the adoption of the Special Resolutions, determined that Invicta concludes the Specific Repurchases.

The JSE Listings Requirements that must be complied with and the resolutions required in terms of section 46 of the Companies Act, are dealt with hereunder.

9

2.2 Terms of the Specific Repurchases

  • 2.2.1 Share Repurchases

    • 2.2.1.1 The Share Repurchases will be undertaken at a Repurchase Price of R28.00 per Repurchase Share.

    • 2.2.1.2 L Sherrell is a non-executive director of Invicta, and therefore the Share Repurchase as it relates to him is a repurchase from a “related party” as defined in the JSE Listings Requirements. D Samuels, who resigned from Invicta with effect from 31 July 2020, is no longer classified as a “related party” in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements.

    • 2.2.1.3 The Repurchase Price represents a 0.99% discount to the 30-day VWAP up to and including 7 September 2021 for the Share Repurchases, being the day before the Repurchase Agreements were concluded. As the Repurchase Price is at a discount to the 30-day VWAP, and the Share Repurchase from L Sherrell is from a “related party”, no fairness opinion is required in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements.

    • 2.2.1.4 As L Sherrell is a Director of Invicta, in terms of section 48(8)(a) of the Companies Act, the Share Repurchase as it relates to him requires a Special Resolution to be approved by the Shareholders of the Company.

    • 2.2.1.5 In terms of the addenda to the Repurchase Agreements dated 15 October 2021, each of D Samuels and L Sherrell shall be entitled to nominate any associate of theirs, as such term is defined in the JSE Listings Requirements, to sell any or all of the Repurchase Shares in their stead.

  • 2.2.2 Treasury Share Repurchase

    • 2.2.2.1 The Treasury Share Repurchase will be undertaken at a Repurchase Price of R31.72 per Repurchase Share.

    • 2.2.2.2 The Repurchase Price represents a 5.42% premium to the 30-day VWAP up to and including 22 September 2021 for the Treasury Share Repurchase, being the day before the Board resolved to proceed with the Treasury Share Repurchase.

  • 2.2.3 The Repurchase Shares in terms of the Specific Repurchases represent 4.81% of all the issued Shares as at the date of the Circular, including Treasury Shares.

  • 2.2.4 Subsequent to the approval of the Specific Repurchases by Shareholders, the Repurchase Shares will revert to authorised but unissued Shares in the Share capital of the Company and application will be made to the JSE for the cancellation and delisting of the Repurchase Shares.

  • 2.2.5 There will be no Invicta Shares held in treasury after the Specific Repurchases.

  • 2.2.6 The date upon which the Specific Repurchases are to be made will be as soon as possible after fulfillment of the conditions detailed in paragraph 2.3 of this Circular, and is expected to be on or about 29 November 2021, with the Repurchase Shares being delisted and cancelled on or about 30 November 2021.

  • 2.2.7 Invicta will not undertake the Specific Repurchases during a “prohibited period” as defined in paragraph 3.67 of the JSE Listings Requirements.

  • 2.3 Conditions to the Specific Repurchases

  • 2.3.1 The Share Repurchases are subject to the following outstanding conditions:

    • 2.3.1.1 Invicta Shareholder approval;

    • 2.3.1.2 in respect of the Share Repurchase from L Sherrell, on or before 18h00 on 30 November 2021, Invicta informing L Sherrell that it is proceeding with the Proposed Acquisition and that all the suspensive conditions to the implementation of the Proposed Acquisition have been fulfilled;

    • 2.3.1.3 in respect of the Share Repurchase from D Samuels, (i) by 30 November 2021, Invicta informing D Samuels that all the suspensive conditions to the implementation of the Proposed Acquisition have been fulfilled and (ii) the necessary Invicta Shareholder approval for the Share Repurchase from D Samuels has been obtained; and

  • 2.3.1.4 in respect of the Share Repurchase from D Samuels, if the condition in paragraph 2.3.1.3(i) above is not fulfilled by 30 November 2021, D Samuels shall be entitled to exercise the Put Option and put 500 000 Invicta Shares to Invicta at the Repurchase Price for a period of 5 days after 30 November 2021 provided the condition in paragraph 2.3.1.3(ii) is fulfilled.

  • 2.3.2 The Proposed Acquisition had no influence on L Sherrell’s decision to enter into the Repurchase Agreement as (i) at the time the Repurchase Agreement was negotiated and concluded, Invicta was merely in negotiations as regards the Proposed Acquisition, with no terms having yet been agreed, and accordingly there was no obligation for the Company to trade under cautionary at the time of negotiating the Repurchase Agreement, and (ii) L Sherrell had no involvement in the negotiations relating to the Proposed Acquisition, and recused himself from the Board’s decision to proceed with the Share Repurchases and the Proposed Acquisition. Furthermore, L Sherrell is participating in the Share Repurchase regardless of the impact of the Proposed Acquisition on, inter alia, the share price of the Company. The required clearance to deal was indirectly obtained as a result of the Board considering, and approving, the Repurchase Agreement.

  • 2.3.3 The Treasury Share Repurchase is subject to Invicta Shareholder approval.

  • 2.3.4 The current Treasury Shares will be excluded from voting at the General Meeting.

3. RATIONALE FOR THE SPECIFIC REPURCHASES

The rationale for the Specific Repurchases is as follows:

  • 3.1 in respect of the Treasury Share Repurchase from Humulani, the Treasury Share Repurchase will reduce administration costs and expenses associated with financial reporting and taxation submissions;

  • 3.2 in respect of the Share Repurchases from L Sherrell and D Samuels, these will be earnings per share enhancing should the Share Repurchases be effected, independent of any financial impact of the Proposed Acquisition, and will ameliorate any dilutionary effect of the issue of Shares to be made in terms of the Proposed Acquisition; and

  • 3.3 in respect of the Proposed Acquisition, which is proposed to be settled in cash and through the issue of 16 524 022 Invicta Shares, the issue of all of these Shares is conditional upon Invicta being able to repurchase 5 200 000 Shares from third party Shareholders by way of share repurchases. Should Invicta not be able to acquire all of the aforegoing Shares in the market, the value of any such Shares not acquired in the market will be settled in cash. In this regard, a cautionary announcement was released by the Company on SENS on 13 September 2021 in relation to the Proposed Acquisition and Invicta concluded the Repurchase Agreements, which agreements allow, subject to the fulfilment of conditions set out in paragraph 2.3 above, for the repurchase of up to 3 900 000 Shares from L Sherrell and D Samuels.

4. SOURCE OF FUNDS

  • 4.1 The Share Repurchases will be funded from Invicta’s existing cash resources.

  • 4.2 The Treasury Share Repurchase will be paid by the Company by means of an inter-company loan account and no external borrowings will be utilised.

5. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The impact of the Specific Repurchases on the financial information of Invicta is as follows:

  • 5.1 the Share Repurchases are for cash only and will therefore reduce Invicta’s cash resources by R109.2 million, being the consideration for the Share Repurchases;

  • 5.2 the Treasury Share Repurchase will have no impact as it will be paid by means of inter-company loan account; and

  • 5.3 the Specific Repurchases will result in a decrease of Invicta’s Shares by 5 441 823 Shares.

A vote given in accordance with the terms of a proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or insanity of the principal, or revocation of the proxy, or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, or the transfer of the Shares in respect of which the proxy is given, provided that no intimation in writing of such death, insanity or revocation shall have been received by the Transfer Secretaries by no later than one hour before the commencement of the General Meeting at which the proxy is to be used.
