(3) During December 2024, the Geita revolving credit facility was cancelled and repaid.
(4) During July 2024, the multi-currency revolving credit facility (RCF) was extended by one year to June 2029. Extension options of borrowing facilities are treated
as loan commitments. In terms of the RCF agreement, the leverage ratio of Adjusted net debt to Adjusted EBITDA should not exceed 3.5 times. The RCF
agreement also makes provision for the ability of the Group to have a leverage ratio of greater than 3.5 times but less than 4.5 times, subject to certain
conditions, for one measurement period not exceeding six months, during the tenor of the RCF. The Group is required to demonstrate compliance with its
financial maintenance covenant requirement every six months (i.e., at the end of each financial year and each half-year of each financial year). At 31 December
2024, the Group was in compliance with its financial maintenance covenant per the RCF agreement.
