Ladies and Gentlemen,

We are in receipt of your letter of February 10, 2025 to Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (the “Company”), asking that the Company respond to your inquiry within ten business days or inform you of when the Company will provide you a response. The Company will require further time to formulate the requested response in coordination with its independent auditors and other advisors due to current business processes and corporate activity limiting the availability of key collaborators. The Company will be able to provide a response on or before March 10, 2025.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Yours sincerely,

/s/ Boipelo Lekubo
