Sappi's Annual General Meeting was held in Johannesburg this afternoon (02 March

respective requisite majorities. Regarding the passing of Ordinary Resolution No

shares, under the control of the directors, the Chairman confirmed before
proposing the resolution that, if the resolution were to be passed with the
requisite majority, the authority will only be utilised to support the raising
