Grant and acceptance of rights to participate in share incentive schemes and
dealing in securities by directors

Datatec announces the following in relation to the Share Appreciation Rights Scheme 2005 (“SAR Scheme”)
and the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"). These share incentive schemes are subject to the rules originally
approved by shareholders at the Company’s annual general meeting held on 16 August 2005 and
subsequently amended and approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 14 September
2011.

Executive directors and the Company secretary have accepted rights granted on 30 May 2016 to participate
in the Group's share based incentive schemes as follows:

SARs in respect of ordinary shares, which are subject to performance conditions and which vest after three
years, at a grant price of R46.16* per SAR:

Name                        Number of SARs              Nature of interest
J P Montanana                  661,325                  indirect beneficial
I P Dittrich                   181,888                  indirect beneficial
S P Morris                     135,344                  direct beneficial

LTIP awards, which are subject to performance conditions and which vest after three years:

Name                 Number of conditional awards       Nature of interest
J P Montanana                  661,325                  indirect beneficial
I P Dittrich                   136,416                  indirect beneficial
S P Morris                     101,508                  direct beneficial

The face value of these awards is R46.16* per award but the value to the participant is nil until (and if) the
awards vest. On exercise of the SARs and on vesting of the LTIP awards a further announcement of the
value received by the participants will be released.

All rights and awards are subject to the rules of the respective share incentive plans, as amended and
approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 14 September 2011.

Approval for the individual allocations and clearance to transact has been given.

All these individual allocations as indicated above have been accepted, off market, by the directors and the
Company secretary respectively on 31 May 2016.
