Arrangements for the AGM and Shareholder Event
The AGM will be held on Tuesday, 27 July 2021 at 15:00 BST at
Rosewood London Hotel, 252 High Holborn, London, WC1V 7EN, United
Kingdom ("UK"). Due to continued uncertainty regarding the UK
Government's restrictions on large indoor public events and travel,
as well as the higher potential COVID-19 transmission risk of
indoor events, the AGM will be scaled back.
It is expected to be purely functional, principally putting the
resolutions to shareholders and calling the poll. Shareholders and
corporate representatives are strongly encouraged not to attend in
person and not to appoint any proxy other than the chair of the AGM
to attend.
However, to ensure that all shareholders have the opportunity to
engage with the Board before submitting their proxy votes, there
will be a live online shareholder engagement event on Monday, 19
July 2021 at 14:00 (BST). Further information can be found in the
notice of AGM.
Mediclinic will continue to closely monitor the latest COVID-19
legislation and guidance issued by the UK Government. The Company
will notify shareholders as soon as reasonably practicable of any
proposed changes to the arrangements for the AGM through an
announcement to the London Stock Exchange ("LSE") and JSE and on
investor.mediclinic.com/events/event-details/2021-agm .
In compliance with JSE requirements, for shareholders on the
South African Branch Register: (i) the record date for the purpose
of determining which shareholders are entitled to participate in
and vote at the AGM is Friday, 23 July 2021; and (ii) the last day
to trade in the Company's shares in order to be recorded as a
shareholder by the voting record date is therefore Tuesday, 20 July
2021.

Key:
Increase: Risk exposure has increased due to change in business
environment; increased investments; increased dependency
of operations on information technology; information
sensitivity; and associated cost.
Decrease: Proactive and continuous monitoring; favourable
results of negotiations; effective treasury; and
risk management processes have resulted in lowering
of risk exposure.
Stable: Risk exposure has remained largely unchanged as
the operating and regulatory environments have
remained stable, and enhanced risk mitigation measures
have kept the risk at the same level.
B. STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The Statement of Directors' Responsibilities In Respect of the
Financial Statements below is extracted from page 182 of the 2021
Annual Report. This statement relates solely to the 2021 Annual
Report and is not connected to the information presented in this
announcement or the preliminary results announcement released on 26
May 2021.
The directors are responsible for preparing the annual report
and the financial statements in accordance with applicable
legislation and regulations.
The Act requires the directors to prepare financial statements
for each financial year. Under the Act, the directors have prepared
the Group annual financial statements and the Company annual
financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU.
Under the Act, the directors must not approve the financial
statements unless they are satisfied that these give a true and
fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and Company and of
the profit or loss of the Group and Company for the reporting
period. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are
required to:
-- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them
consistently;
-- state whether applicable IFRS as adopted by the EU have
been followed for the Group annual financial statements
and for the Company annual financial statements, subject
to any material departures disclosed and explained in
the financial statements;
-- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable
and prudent; and
-- prepare the financial statements on the going concern
basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the
Group and Company will continue in business.
The directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets
of the Group and Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for
the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting
records that are sufficient to show and explain the Group and
Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any
time the financial position of the Group and Company and enable
them to ensure that the financial statements and the Remuneration
Committee Report comply with the Act and the Group financial
statements with Article 4 of the IAS Regulation.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity
of the Company's website.
Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and
dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation
in other jurisdictions.
DIRECTORS' CONFIRMATIONS
The directors consider that this Annual Report, and accounts,
taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable and provides
the information necessary for shareholders to assess the Group and
Company's position and performance, business model and
strategy.
Each of the directors, whose names and functions are listed from
page 107 of this Annual Report, confirm that, to the best of their
knowledge:
-- the Company annual financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU,
give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities,
financial position and profit or loss of the Company;
-- the Group annual financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU,
give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities,
financial position and profit or loss of the Group; and
-- the Directors' Report includes a fair review of the development
and performance of the business and the position of the
Group and Company, together with a description of the
principal risks and uncertainties that these entities
face.
In the case of each director in office at the date the
Directors' Report is approved:
-- so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant
audit information of which the Group and Company's auditors
are unaware; and;
-- they have taken all the steps that they ought to have
taken as a director in order to make themselves aware
of any relevant audit information and to establish that
the Group and Company's auditors are aware of that information.
