UPDATE ON SASOL BOARD REVIEW, DELAY OF THE FINANCIAL RESULTS
ANNOUNCEMENT AND UPDATE ON THE LAKE CHARLES CHEMICALS
PROJECT

In the Company’s Trading Statement of 25 July 2019, updated guidance was
provided on the independent review commissioned by the Board to ascertain the
factors that impacted the cost and schedule changes for the Lake Charles Chemicals
Project (LCCP).

A preliminary report from the independent review was presented to the Board on

14 August 2019. The report contains observations which point to possible LCCP control
weaknesses. Management and the Board will assess such control weaknesses and
identify whether any further remedial actions are required. In addition, the
Company’s auditors are required to consider these assessments in terms of
International Standards on Auditing and the Auditing Standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board.

As a consequence, the Board has decided to delay the announcement of Sasol’s
2019 financial results until the independent review and external audit has been
completed. The Board therefore expects to announce the 2019 financial results on
19 September 2019. At that time, Sasol will also release its suite of reports including
the Annual Financial Statements, Annual Integrated Report, Sustainable
Development Report, Climate Change Report and Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Notwithstanding the independent review, the Board remains confident that the
guidance on the earnings ranges provided in the Trading Statement and the previous
cost guidance for the LCCP of $12,6-12,9 billion remain unchanged.

LCCP UPDATE

Sasol provided an update on the LCCP in its Trading Statement of 25 July 2019, in
which the Company stated that beneficial operation of the Ethane Cracker was
expected at the end of July 2019 or soon thereafter.

The final stages of the Ethane Cracker startup were initiated in July 2019. As is
often the case with major plant startups, a technical challenge relating to a large heat
exchanger was encountered. As a result, the Cracker startup was interrupted for
several days to resolve this issue. The startup has now resumed and an update on
the achievement of beneficial operation will be provided on or before 26 August
2019.

Sasol may, in this document, make certain statements that are not historical facts and relate
to analyses and other information which are based on forecasts of future results and estimates
of amounts not yet determinable. These statements may also relate to our future prospects,
developments and business strategies. Examples of such forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, statements regarding exchange rate fluctuations, volume growth,
increases in market share, total shareholder return, executing our growth projects (including
LCCP), oil and gas reserves, cost reductions, our Continuous Improvement (CI) initiative and
business performance outlook. Words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “intend",
“seek”, “will”, “plan”, “could”, “may”, “endeavour”, “target”, “forecast” and “project” and similar
expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive
means of identifying such statements. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve
inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and there are risks that the
predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved.
If one or more of these risks materialise, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated. You should understand that a
number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans,
objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking
statements. These factors are discussed more fully in our most recent annual report on Form
20-F filed on 28 August 2018 and in other filings with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission. The list of factors discussed therein is not exhaustive; when relying
on forward-looking statements to make investment decisions, you should carefully consider
both these factors and other uncertainties and events. Forward-looking statements apply only
as of the date on which they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or
revise any of them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
