Note that on the London Stock Exchange: The Associated Record Date will be 12^th August 2022 and the Ex-Dividend date will be 11^th August 2022.

The default currency and options on currency election for the dividend will depend as follows:

•             Shareholders holding their shares on the Nigerian Exchange Limited without a valid Nigerian Certificate for Capital Importation ("CCI") will be paid their dividend in Naira as the default currency.

•             Shareholders holding their shares on the Nigerian Exchange Limited with a valid CCI will be paid their dividend in US dollars as the default currency.  However, those shareholders may instead elect to receive their entire dividend payment in Naira (partial elections are not permissible).  Evidence of the CCI must be provided to Datamax Registrars Limited; and

•             Shareholders holding their shares through depository interests on the London Stock Exchange will be paid their dividend in US dollars as the default currency.  However, those shareholders may instead elect to receive their entire dividend payment in pounds sterling. Partial elections are not permissible.

Shareholders who have a dividend currency option, must make the election to the Company's Registrars by 26^th August 2022, otherwise the dividend will be paid in the default currency.  The election form will be sent out to the relevant shareholders and can also be found on the Company website https://seplatenergy.com/investors/dividend/. Those shareholders holding their shares on the Nigerian Exchange Limited who hold a valid CCI should notify SEPLAT's Nigerian Registrars, DataMax Registrars Limited ("DataMax"), of that fact.

The exchange rate for the Naira or Pounds Sterling amounts payable will be determined by reference to the relevant exchange rates applicable to the US dollar on 11^th August 2022 and will be communicated by the Company on 12^th August 2022.

On or around 9^th September 2022, the interim dividend will be paid electronically to shareholders whose names appear on the Register of Members as of 12^th August 2022, and who have completed the e-dividend registration and mandated the Registrar to pay their interim dividend directly into their Bank accounts.
