Exercise of Share Options and Bonus Shares

10 November 2017

The Company announces that certain Directors and senior management have exercised vested options awarded to them under the Sylvania Platinum Limited Share Option Plan ("the Option Plan") as well as the deferred share awards granted in accordance with the Sylvania Platinum Limited Bonus Share Award Plan ("Bonus Shares").

BACKGROUND

As previously disclosed in the Annual Report the Option Plan was approved at the Annual General Meeting on 29 December 2011.

The Options issued under the Plan were granted free of charge and the exercise price (if any) for the options determined by the Board at its absolute discretion. The expiry date of the options, unless otherwise determined by the Board, is ten years after the grant date. The Board at its discretion may apply certain vesting conditions upon any options issued under the plan.

Under the Plan, 10% of issued Share Capital was allowed to be issued as Options. The Company however disclosed that it did not intend to issue more than 5% of issued Share Capital. This was based on the number of Ordinary Shares in issue at the time of the AGM held on 29 December 2011. The full 5% has been granted and the Board does not intend to issue any further Options under the Plan.

Bonus Shares were awarded to selected employees in August 2015 and, in addition to other vesting conditions, held a 12 month vesting period.

RECENT EVENTS

Upon exercising the vested Options and Bonus Shares, these convert to 3,452,900 shares of USD0.01 each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), and shares currently held in treasury will be used to satisfy the exercise of the options.

A further 1,672,100 Options and Bonus Shares converting into the same number of Ordinary Shares were exercised and then simultaneously repurchased by the Company in order to satisfy the tax liabilities of certain employees. These Ordinary Shares are currently being held in treasury.

In addition to the Options and Bonus Shares above, 835,650 Options and Bonus Shares were exercised and the Company has repurchased these shares at the 30 Day VWAP of 10.85 pence. These shares have been placed in treasury.

Of the 5,125,000 Options and Bonus Shares being exercised, the following relate to Directors and senior management of the Company:

   the shares bought back for tax is the 
   price on the day the Options vest.
