PUBLICATION OF SHAREHOLDER CIRCULAR IN RELATION TO THE PROPOSED EXTRA-ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING (“EGM”) (“EGM CIRCULAR”) TO SEEK AUTHORITY FOR THE SPECIFIC ISSUE OF SHARES TO THE HARMONY GOLD COMMUNITY TRUST AND HARMONY ESOP TRUST

1.Introduction and Rationale
Harmony shareholders (“Shareholders”) are referred to the announcement released by the Company on 11 December 2023, in which it advised that the Company is proposing two broad-based black economic empowerment (“B-BBEE”) transactions involving:
•the specific issue of no par value convertible preference shares (“Preference Shares”) by Harmony to the trustees for the time being of the Harmony Gold Community Trust (“Harmony Community Trust”)(“Harmony Community Trust Share Issue”); and
•the specific issue of no par value ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) by Harmony to the trustees for the time being of the Harmony ESOP Trust (“ESOP Trust”) for the benefit of Eligible Employees, as defined in the EGM Circular (“ESOP Trust Share Issue”),
(together, the “B-BBEE Transactions”).
Consistent with the foregoing, Harmony proposes to:
•issue a further 2,466,103 Preference Shares to the Harmony Community Trust (“Harmony Community Trust Shares”), which, on conversion into Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms of the Preference Shares prescribed in the memorandum of incorporation of Harmony (“MOI”), would constitute approximately 0.4% of the issued Ordinary Shares as at the date of the announcement referred to above; and
•issue 12,651,525 Ordinary Shares to the ESOP Trust (“ESOP Trust Shares”), which would constitute approximately 2% of the issued Ordinary Shares of the Company as at the date of the announcement referred to above.



Following the issue of the aforementioned Harmony Community Trust Shares to the Harmony Community Trust and ESOP Trust Shares to the ESOP Trust, the Harmony Community Trust shall hold 6,866,103 Preference Shares and the ESOP Trust shall hold 12,651,525 Ordinary Shares in the Company.
