DEALINGS IN SECURITIES BY SHARE INCENTIVE SCHEME, BY DIRECTORS AND BY THE COMPANY SECRETARY

Datatec announces the following in relation to the Share Appreciation
Rights Scheme ("SAR Scheme"), the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") and the
Deferred Bonus Plan ("DBP"). 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.

1) SAR Scheme – May 2016 grants - outcome

The Share Appreciation Rights ("SARs") awards granted in May 2016 had a
performance condition which required the Company's share price to increase
from 1 March 2016 to 28 February 2019 by more than South African CPI
inflation over the same period. This performance condition was not met.

Accordingly, the SARs granted in May 2016 have not vested and will lapse.

2) LTIP – May 2016 grants - outcome

The LTIP awards granted in May 2016 had two performance conditions each
applying to half the award: an underlying EPS growth condition and a Return
on Invested Capital (ROIC) condition. The number of awards and the
underlying EPS performance condition were both modified, as permitted in
terms of the rules of the LTIP, to take into account the disposal of
Westcon Americas and the special dividend declared in FY18.

Following an evaluation of the Company's performance against the prescribed
conditions in accordance with the rules of the LTIP it was determined that
50% of the LTIP awards granted in May 2016, as modified, have vested.
Accordingly 908,456 Datatec shares have been delivered to participants in
the May 2016 LTIP on 3 June 2019.

who are Directors and the Company Secretary of Datatec are disclosed below,
