Notification of transactions by relevant Directors, Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities and persons closely associated with them, prescribed officers, company secretaries and associates.

As part of the dual listed company structure, Ninety One plc and Ninety One Limited (together "Ninety One") notify both the London and Johannesburg Stock Exchanges of those interests (and changes to those interests) of (i) directors of both entities and the respective company secretaries and such persons' respective associates and persons closely associated with them, (ii) prescribed officers and persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs") and such persons' respective associates and persons closely associated with them, and (iii) in certain instances the directors and company secretaries of major subsidiaries of Ninety One and such persons' respective associates, in the securities of Ninety One plc and Ninety One Limited which are required to be disclosed under Article 19(1) of the Market Abuse Exit Regulations 2019 ("UK MAR"), the Listing Rules, and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the FCA and/or the JSE Listings Requirements. Clearance was obtained for the below dealing in securities.

Forty Two Point Two ("FTPT") is pleased to announce that it has been able to facilitate the acquisition of shares in Ninety One Limited by The Ninety One South Africa Employee Benefit Trust (the "SA EBT") by executing securities transactions with the SA EBT and third parties.  These transactions, which were executed at arm's length, effectively resulted in FTPT exchanging shares in Ninety One Limited for the same number of shares in Ninety One plc.  The net result is that FTPT's beneficial interest in Ninety One remains unaffected by the transactions, the details of which are set out below.
