LOGICALIS SELLS SMC CONSULTANCY OPERATION

Datatec Limited ("Datatec”), the international Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
group, announces that its subsidiary Logicalis Group Limited (“Logicalis”), has entered an agreement
to sell its service management consultancy operation, Logicalis SMC (“SMC”), based in the
Netherlands to DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC) for an undisclosed sum.

Logicalis acquired SMC on 4 March 2013 as one of the four European operations purchased from
2e2. Under Logicalis’ ownership, the SMC business has grown significantly and now employs 184
people.

SMC will join the DXC Technology ServiceNow practice within Fruition Partners, a DXC Technology
company and a leading global ServiceNow platform.

The transaction will enable Logicalis to continue to have a trading relationship with SMC whilst
releasing funds to reinvest in Logicalis’ core operations and further mergers and acquisitions (M&A)
activity.

Jens Montanana, Datatec Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“This realisation represented outstanding value for us to divest a non-core business while
allowing Logicalis’ excellent business relationship with SMC to continue under new
ownership.”

This announcement is voluntary in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements and AIM Rules. The
transaction size does not fall within the category requirements of the JSE Listings Requirements or
the AIM class tests.
