EXCHANGE RATE FOR CASH PAYMENT ARISING FROM THE DEMERGER

Altron Shareholders are referred to the cash payment announcements released on SENS on 2 December
2020 and 15 December 2020 in relation to the GBP proceeds due to Altron Ordinary Shareholders as a
result of the Demerger.

Further to those announcements Altron wishes to advise that the GBP proceeds due to Altron Ordinary
Shareholders have been converted into ZAR at an exchange rate of GBP1 = ZAR19.87895. The GBP/ZAR
exchange rate is the average of the exchange rates achieved during the 2-day GBP to ZAR conversion
process from 17 December 2020 to 18 December 2020. The total cash amount due to Altron Ordinary
Shareholders is GBP280,489,767.30 which based on the exchange rate above represents
ZAR5,575,842,059.66892. This amount will be allocated to Altron Ordinary Shareholders based on the
elections which they made on the Record Date and any fractional entitlements arising on the Distribution.
A worked example has been provided below.

The settlement date for the cash proceeds due to Altron Ordinary Shareholders as a result of the Demerger
is 23 December 2020.

Example of cash payment:

Altron Shareholders are referred to the cash payment announcement released on 2 December 2020 and
the Rounding Convention explained therein. The example below has been taken from the 2 December
2020 announcement and updated to show the ZAR cash payment now that the GBP/ZAR exchange rate
and Offer Price has been established.

This example assumes that an Altron Ordinary Shareholder held 101 Altron Ordinary Shares on the Record
Date for the Distribution and that no election was made, such that its Convertible Notes were redeemed for
cash and converted into Converted Shares in the Default Ratio.

Step 1: Convertible Note entitlement and arising fractional entitlement
Convertible Notes distribution entitlement based on Entitlement Ratio = (101 x 0.5) = 50.5 Convertible Notes

The Rounding Convention is then applied and the Altron Ordinary Shareholder will receive:
50 whole Convertible Notes in respect of the 101 Ordinary Shares held and a cash payment for the fractional
entitlement of 0.5 Convertible Notes multiplied by the Offer Price of GBP2.70 converted at the GBP/ZAR
exchange rate provided above. This represents a cash payment for the fractional entitlement of 0.5
multiplied by GBP2.70 multiplied by 19.87895 which equals ZAR26.83658.

Step 2: Cash/share election
The number of Converted Shares the Altron Ordinary Shareholder receives due to a 75% share conversion:
75% x 50 Convertible Notes = 37.5.

The Rounding Convention is then applied and the Altron Ordinary Shareholder will receive:
37 Bytes Technology Group plc shares (Bytes Technology Group plc shares were allocated on 17
December 2020) in respect of the 50 Convertible Notes, and a cash payment of 13 Convertible Notes
multiplied by the Offer Price of GBP2.70 converted at the GBP/ZAR exchange rate provided above. This
represents a cash payment for the redemption election in the Default Ratio of 13 multiplied by GBP2.70
multiplied by 19.87895 which equals ZAR697.75115.

Based on the above example an Altron Ordinary Shareholder who held 101 Altron Ordinary Shares at the
Record Date would receive a total cash payment of ZAR724.58773.

The above example has been provided purely for illustrative purposes and the cash payment attributable
to each Altron Ordinary Shareholder will depend on the number of Altron Ordinary Shares held at the
Record Date, whether fractional entitlements arose on the Distribution and the election which was made by
the Altron Ordinary Shareholder.

Capitalised terms not defined in this announcement shall have the meanings given to them in the Circular.
