- this authority will only be valid until the Company's next AGM or for 15 months from the date of this resolution, whichever period is shorter;
- the number of shares which may be acquired pursuant to this authority may not in the aggregate exceed 20% (twenty percent) in any financial year.

In accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, the directors record that although there is no immediate intention to effect a repurchase of shares of the Company, the directors would utilise the general authority to repurchase shares when suitable opportunities present themselves, which opportunities may require expeditious and immediate action.

- the Company and the Group will be able, in the ordinary course of business, to pay their debts;
- the assets of the Company and the Group will be in excess of the liabilities of the Company and the Group;
- the stated capital and reserves of the Company and the Group will be adequate for ordinary business purposes; and
- the working capital of the Company and the Group will be adequate for ordinary business purposes.

Please note that your proxy may delegate his/her authority to act on your behalf to another person, subject to the restrictions set out in the attached form of proxy. Please also note that the attached form of proxy must be delivered to the registered office of Resilient or to the office of the transfer secretaries or handed to the chairperson of the AGM or the transfer secretaries, before your proxy may exercise any of your rights as a shareholder of the Company at the AGM.
Please note that any shareholder of the Company that is a company may authorise any person to act as its representative at the AGM.
Please also note that section 63(1) of the Companies Act requires that persons wishing to participate in the AGM (including the aforementioned representative) must provide satisfactory identification before they may so participate.
Notice to owners of dematerialised shares
Please note that if you are the owner of dematerialised shares held through a Central Securities Depository Participant ("CSDP") or broker (or their nominee) and are not registered as an "own name" dematerialised shareholder, then you are not a registered shareholder of the Company, but your CSDP or broker (or their nominee) would be.
Accordingly, in these circumstances, subject to the mandate between yourself and your CSDP or broker as the case may be:
- Should you wish to attend the AGM, you must contact your CSDP or broker and obtain the relevant letter of representation from it; alternatively
- If you are unable to attend the AGM but wish to be represented at the AGM, you must contact your CSDP or broker and furnish them with your voting instructions in respect of the AGM and/or request them to appoint a proxy. You must not complete the attached form of proxy. The instructions must be provided in accordance with the mandate between yourself and your CSDP or broker, within the time period required by your CSDP or broker.
CSDPs, brokers or their nominees, as the case may be, recorded in the Company's sub-register as holders of dematerialised shares should, when authorised in terms of their mandate or instructed to do so by the owner on behalf of whom they hold dematerialised shares, vote by either appointing a duly authorised representative to attend and vote at the AGM or by completing the attached form of proxy in accordance with the instructions thereon. For administrative purposes, forms of proxy should be submitted to the registered office of the Company or to the office of the transfer secretaries by 13h00 on Monday, 23 June 2025. Alternatively, the form of proxy may be handed to the chairperson of the AGM or the transfer secretaries at the AGM at any time prior to the commencement of the AGM or prior to voting on a resolution.

RESILIENT REIT LIMITED
Notice of the annual general meeting for the year ended 31 December 2024
NOTES TO THE FORM OF PROXY
-
Only shareholders who are registered in the register of the Company under their "own name" on the record date for voting purposes, being Friday, 20 June 2025, may complete a form of proxy or attend the AGM. This includes certificated shareholders or "own name" dematerialised shareholders. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.
-
Certificated shareholders wishing to attend the AGM have to ensure beforehand with the transfer secretaries, JSE Investor Services Proprietary Limited, that their shares are registered in their "own name".
-
Beneficial shareholders whose shares are not registered in their "own name", but in the name of another, for example, a nominee, may not complete a form of proxy, unless a form of proxy is issued to them by a registered shareholder and they should contact the registered shareholder for assistance in issuing instructions on voting their shares, or obtaining a proxy to attend, speak and vote at the AGM.
-
Dematerialised shareholders who have not elected "own name" registration in the register of the Company through a CSDP and who wish to attend the AGM, must instruct the CSDP or broker to provide them with the necessary letter of representation to attend.
-
Dematerialised shareholders who have not elected "own name" registration in the register of the Company through a CSDP and who are unable to attend, but wish to vote at the AGM, must timeously provide their CSDP or broker with their voting instructions in terms of the custody agreement entered into between that shareholder and the CSDP or broker.
-
A shareholder may insert the name of a proxy or the names of two or more alternative proxies of the shareholder's choice in the space, with or without deleting "the chairperson of the AGM". The person whose name stands first on the form of proxy and who is present at the AGM will be entitled to act as a proxy to the exclusion of those whose names follow.
-
The completion and lodging of this form of proxy will not preclude the relevant shareholder from attending the AGM and speaking and voting in person thereat to the exclusion of any proxy appointed, should such shareholder wish to do so. In addition to the aforegoing, a shareholder may revoke the proxy appointment by:
7.1. cancelling it in writing, or making a later inconsistent appointment of a proxy; and
7.2. delivering a copy of the revocation instrument to the proxy, and to the Company.
- The revocation of a proxy appointment constitutes a complete and final cancellation of the proxy's authority to act on behalf of the shareholder as of the later of the date:
8.1. stated in the revocation instrument, if any; or
8.2. upon which the revocation instrument is delivered to the proxy and the Company as required in section 58(4)(c)(ii) of the Companies Act.
- Should the instrument appointing a proxy or proxies have been delivered to the transfer secretaries, as long as that appointment remains in effect, any notice that is required by the Companies Act or the Memorandum of Incorporation of the Company to be delivered by the Company to the shareholder must be delivered to:
9.1. the shareholder; or
9.2. the proxy or proxies if the shareholder has in writing directed the Company to do so and has paid any reasonable fee charged by the Company for doing so.
-
A proxy is entitled to exercise, or abstain from exercising, any voting right of the relevant shareholder without direction, except to the extent that the Memorandum of Incorporation or the instrument appointing the proxy provides otherwise.
-
If the Company issues an invitation to shareholders to appoint one or more persons named by the Company as a proxy, or supplies a form of instrument appointing a proxy:
11.1. such invitation must be sent to every shareholder who is entitled to receive notice of the meeting at which the proxy is intended to be exercised;
11.2. the Company must not require that the proxy appointment be made irrevocable; and
11.3. the proxy appointment remains valid only until the end of the relevant meeting at which it was intended to be used, unless revoked as contemplated in section 58(5) of the Companies Act.
-
Any alteration or correction made to this form of proxy must be initialled by the signatory/ies. A deletion of any printed matter and the completion of any blank space(s) need not be signed or initialled.
-
Documentary evidence establishing the authority of a person signing this form of proxy in a representative capacity must be attached to this form unless previously recorded by the transfer secretaries or waived by the chairperson of the AGM.
-
A minor must be assisted by his/her parent/guardian unless the relevant documents establishing his/her legal capacity are produced or have been registered by the transfer secretaries.
-
A company holding shares in the Company that wishes to attend and participate at the AGM should ensure that a resolution authorising a representative to act is passed by its directors. Resolutions authorising representatives in terms of section 57(5) of the Companies Act must be lodged with the transfer secretaries prior to the AGM.
-
Where there are joint holders of shares, any one of such persons may vote at any meeting in respect of such shares as if he/she were solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders wishes to be present or represented at the AGM, that one of the said persons whose name appears first in the register or his/her proxy, as the case may be, shall alone be entitled to vote in respect thereof.
RESILIENT REIT LIMITED
Notice of the annual general meeting for the year ended 31 December 2024
NOTES TO THE FORM OF PROXY continued
-
The chairperson of the AGM may reject or accept any proxy which is completed and/or received other than in accordance with the instructions, provided that he shall not accept a proxy unless he is satisfied as to the manner in which a shareholder wishes to vote.
-
A proxy may not delegate his/her authority to act on behalf of the shareholder, to another person.
-
A shareholder's instruction to the proxy must be indicated by the insertion of the relevant number of shares to be voted on behalf of that shareholder in the appropriate space provided. Failure to comply with the above will be deemed to authorise the chairperson of the AGM, if the chairperson is the authorised proxy, to vote in favour of the resolutions at the AGM or other proxy to vote or to abstain from voting at the AGM as he/she deems fit, in respect of the shares concerned. A shareholder or the proxy is not obliged to use all of the votes exercisable by the shareholder or the proxy, but the total of votes cast in respect whereof abstention is recorded may not exceed the total of the votes exercisable by the shareholder or the proxy.
-
Forms of proxy are requested to be delivered to the transfer secretaries, JSE Investor Services Proprietary Limited at 5th Floor, One Exchange Square, Gwen Lane, Sandown, 2196, or posted to PO Box 4844, Johannesburg, 2000, or emailed to [email protected], so as to arrive no later than 13h00 on Monday, 23 June 2025. Forms of proxy not lodged with the transfer secretaries in time may be handed to the chairperson of the AGM immediately before the commencement of the AGM or prior to voting on a resolution. Any shareholder who completes and lodges a form of proxy will nevertheless be entitled to attend, speak and vote in person at the AGM should the shareholder decide to do so.
-
This form of proxy may be used at any adjournment or postponement of the AGM, including any postponement due to a lack of quorum, unless withdrawn by the shareholder.
-
The aforegoing notes include a summary of the relevant provisions of section 58 of the Companies Act, as required in terms of that section.
Forms of proxy must be lodged at, posted or emailed to the transfer secretaries, JSE Investor Services Proprietary Limited:
