The Mineral Reserves were originally prepared, classified and reported according to SAMREC, 2016. For the purposes of this TRS, the Mineral Reserves have been classified in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K). The Qualified Person responsible for the estimate is Mr A Louw, who is Ore Reserve Manager at Tshepong North, and a Harmony employee. 2. Tonnes, grade, and gold content are declared as net delivered to the mills. 3. Figures are fully inclusive of all mining dilutions, gold losses and are reported as mill delivered tonnes and head grades. Metallurgical recovery factors have not been applied to the reserve figures. 4. Gold content has not taken metallurgical recovery factors into account. 5. Mineral Reserves are reported using a cut-off grade of 800cmg/t determined using a gold price of USD1,582/oz gold. In the opinion of the QP, given that Tshepong North is an established operation, the modifying factors informing the Mineral Reserve estimates would at a minimum, satisfy the confidence levels of a Pre-Feasibility Study. The declared Mineral Reserves are depleted to generate Tshepong North cash flows. The economic analysis of the cash flows displays positive results and are deemed both technically and economically achievable. Capital and Operating Cost Estimates The capital cost estimates for Tshepong North is determined at a corporate level, using the business plan as the basis. The capital costs are associated with major equipment outside the main operating sections which is termed abnormal expenditure (“AE”), infrastructure development, as well as ongoing capital development (“OCD”). Costs associated with the Mining Charter Compliance (“MCC”), as per South Africa’s Social Labour Plan (“SLP”) requirements are also included in the capital estimates. The capital costs are presented in Table 1-3. for the LOM business plan and for Mineral Reserves. The operating cost estimates for Tshepong North are categorised into direct and total costs. The operating cost estimates are shown in Table 1-4. for the LOM business plan and for Mineral Reserves. The capital and operating costs are reported in ZAR terms and on a real basis. The economic analysis, including the capital and operating costs are reported for the period comprising financial year (“FY24”) July – June. Both, the capital and operating estimates are accounted for in the economic analysis of Tshepong North. The results of the economic analysis demonstrate positive returns over the LOM and for Mineral Reserves. Permitting Requirements The permits held by Tshepong North are presented in Table 1-5. Tshepong North have the necessary valid permits, administered and managed by various departments, and do not require any additional permits to continue with their mining operations, except for the application which have been submitted to amend the Water Use Applications. An application to renew and amend water use licence was submitted to the respective regulator. The approval for WULA is pending at the effective date of this TRS. Based on current industry norms, a realistic timeframe to obtain relevant authorisations is estimated between 12 and 18 months. There is no material litigation (including violations or fines) against the Company as at the date of this report which threatens its mineral rights, tenure, or operations.

Conclusions UnderThe QP’s opinion is that the mine plan is achievable under the set of assumptions and parameters used in this TRS,. Tshepong North show a positive cash flow over the life-of-mine which supports the Mineral Resource andlife of mine (“LOM”) and for the Mineral Reserve estimates. The mine plan is achievable under the set of assumptions and parameters used. Recommendations The gold output can be optimised through improvement of quality of mining and this will result in achieving planned shaft call factor. This impact will be realised through our currently implemented Business Initiative programme that will look at driving quality of mining through measures such as in-stope water controls and better fragmentation during blasting to contain the gold.

Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 5 Figure 6-1: Regional Geology of the Witwatersrand Basin Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 15 The B Reef at Phakisa is located about 170m stratigraphically above the Basal Reef and varies in thickness from 30cm to 170cm. The conglomerate varies in character depending on the facies, with B1 being a small to medium pebble conglomerate and usually no more than 30cm thick with abundant carbon. The B2 facies is a small pebble lag in an argillaceous quartzite, with little to no mineralisation. B3 facies is a 20 to 150cm thick conglomerate, mature, well packed, with pebble sizes varying from small to cobble size, very polymictic, normally with abundant pyrite and some carbon. This is the most common facies Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 20


 
The B Reef at Phakisa is located about 170m stratigraphically above the Basal Reef and varies in thickness from 30cm to 170cm. The conglomerate varies in character depending on the facies, with B1 being a small to medium pebble conglomerate and usually no more than 30cm thick with abundant carbon. The B2 facies is a small pebble lag in an argillaceous quartzite, with little to no mineralisation. B3 facies is a 20 to 150cm thick conglomerate, mature, well packed, with pebble sizes varying from small to cobble size, very polymictic, normally with abundant pyrite and some carbon. This is the most common facies. 6.3.3 Structure At Tshepong, the Dagbreek Fault that strikes north-south bisects the mine into western and eastern domains. The shaft infrastructure itself is situated largely within the zone of fault loss associated with the Dagbreek Fault (Figure 6-3 and Figure 6-4). The fault has a variable down throw to the west of approximately 350m, with no significant lateral displacement. It is interpreted as an early compressional structure that has experienced later Platberg age relaxation and subsequent extension. Reef in the eastern domain dips to the east at an average of 23° and extends from 55 Level (1,674m depth) to 66 Level (2,010m depth), which is the lowest working level of the Main shaft. Tshepong is currently developing the Sub 71 Decline Capital Project, which extends access down dip to 75 Level (2,286m depth), the lowest planned working level of the Sub 71 Decline Project. Relative to the eastern domain, the western domain at Tshepong is more structurally deformed. This is prevalent to the north where major block rotation has occurred resulting in the reef dipping to the west. The structural complexity of this western domain necessitates an intensive, ongoing drilling programme to locate fault bounded reef blocks. A second structural family of faults and dykes occurs on a NW-SE trend and are thought to be conjugate to and thus of a similar age to the Dagbreek Fault system, but this direction of faults tends to be associated with lateral shifts. Many faults shown signs of lateral displacement, but the amount of this displacement is often difficult to determine. These faults are typically oriented between N-S and NNW-SSE. Maximum displacement identified thus far is approximately 200m on the Thelma Fault. At Phakisa, there are several major faults and dykes present interpreted from surface drill holes and intersected in the development and stoping. Among these are the Enrico, Zero, Zindaba, Eland and Savannah Dykes, as well as the Southern and Phakisa Faults. The easterly limit of the ore body is not clearly defined but appears to cut off at approximately 3,000m below surface on a major component of the north-south striking Arrarat Fault. Two principal age-based divisions in Phakisa’s intrusive structures have been identified, namely; Ventersdorp and post-Ventersdorp eras. Various subdivisions within each of these two categories have also been observed. Yellow porphyry, acicular and quartz diorite dykes are found in the Ventersdorp suite of intrusives, while Karoo dolerites and lamprophyres occur in the post-Ventersdorp suite of intrusives. These intrusives tend to utilise any plane of weakness in their passage. It is therefore not unusual to find an intrusive infill along the various fault planes and other faults within the mine area. Accompanying gouge material, showing slicken- siding along the contacts of the intrusions, indicates that movement has taken place after these rocks were intruded. 6.4 Mineralisation The gold mineralisation in the Witwatersrand deposits is believed to have followed an episode of deep burial, fracturing and alteration. The mineralisation model is that Archean gold bearing hydrothermal fluid was introduced into the conglomerates and circulated throughout in hydrothermal cells. The fluids precipitated gold and other elements through reactions that took place at elevated temperatures along the reef horizons, which was the more favourable fluid conduit. The generic mineralisation model for Tshepong North Basal Reef is based on structurally controlled fluid flow within a conglomerate hosted lithology. Fluid flow is dependent on the permeability of the host rock mass Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 21 individual drill holes at inclinations ranging from -15° to +30° of vertical, or as dictated by local geological structures. 7.6.2 Collar and Downhole Surveys The drill holes used for reef delineation at Tshepong North are surveyed to confirm both collar position and trajectory. Drill hole collar and downhole surveys are conducted on long inclined borehole (“LIBs”) or long vertical boreholes (“LVBs”), as well as on most of the groundwater boreholes (“GBH”) and dewatering boreholes (“DBH”) drilled on the mine. Surveying of exploration drill holes at Tshepong is outsourced to Digital Surveying (Pty) Limited. All underground drill hole surveys are conducted using an Electronic Multishot Survey instrument. Downhole surveys are conducted on all LIB/LVB drill holes for verification purposes, and the results are submitted together with the primary survey data used to determine the drill hole trajectories and are checked for quality and then captured on Microsoft ExcelTM and transferred to DatamineTM database. At Phakisa, exploration holes are normally not surveyed as the maximum length of the holes are 120m and stabilisers are used to minimise the risk of deflections. LIBs drilled for the Phakisa Sub 75 Capital Project and the B reef initial drilling project before footwall development was established were all surveyed, including the deflections. All records received from the survey company are checked for quality and then captured and stored in the electronic databases. 7.6.3 Logging Procedures Upon arrival at the core yard located on-site, drill core is marked at every meter interval. The core is then orientated so that the low point of bedding is coincident with the edge of the angle iron. The cut line is defined by the low point of the bedding at the base of the reef zone, when viewed as per convention, from left to right in the direction of increasing depth, is drawn parallel to the core. The core is then rotated through 90° and a yellow line was then drawn parallel to the core, to define the retention half core. All drill cores are photographed prior to logging and sampling. The geologist conducts the core logging. Drill core logging is quantitative and qualitative. The following information is recorded: • lithology; • packing density; • roundness; • sorting; • contact type, grain/pebble size; • sediment maturity; and • mineralisation; and alteration. The geologist responsible for logging the core stores the original paper record. Core logging is also stored electronically using both DeswikTM and DatamineTM software. Internal peer reviewing is undertaken on the interpretation of the stratigraphy and spatial correlation of drill holes. Observations are captured on the diamond drilling database by geologists. The logs are checked by the Senior Geologist prior to sampling. Logging procedures are conducted as per the Harmony company standards, which are used on all underground mines and are best practice and have been in place since 2001. 7.6.4 Drilling Results The location of the underground drill holes intersecting the Basal and B reefs are presented in Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 30 With over 182,862 Basal Reef and B Reef samples having been taken since 2003, the results indicated various geological information regarding facies, depositional environment and grades which is useful in identifying and delineating areas of economic interest. The results have, however, been included into the geological modelling and Mineral Resource estimation process. The recent Basal Reef and B Reef underground drilling results for Phakisa are summarised in Table 7-4 and Table 7-5. A total of 32 underground drill holes were drilled in 2022 which included 29 Basal Reef intersections, two Leader Reef (minor reef) and a single B Reef intersection. A total of 230 underground drill holes were drilled in 2023. The Basal Reef and B Reef underground drilling results for Tshepong for 2022 are summarised in Table 7-3 and Table 7-4. 7.6.5 Core Recovery Upon delivery to the core yard, and prior to logging and sampling, the drill core is checked to ensure 100% core recovery. Core recovery is determined by dividing the measured length of the recovered core by the total length of the core run. An intersection is complete and representative if core recovery is greater than 99%. Drillholes with poor recovery are not sampled. Extra caution is taken during the drilling process to ensure maximum core recovery on reef intersections, to prevent sample bias. Reef intersection “acceptability” is categorised as per the criteria summarised in Table 7-2 and is determined by geologists based on, amongst others, drill core condition and faulting. The acceptability is verified for each reef intersection before the assay results are used for Mineral Resource estimation. 7.6.6 Sample Length and True Thickness Mineralisation of the reefs is perpendicular to or at an angle to the drill holes. As such, all drill hole reef intersection widths are corrected to true thickness for gold value calculation. 7.7 Hydrogeology Harmony has a surface and groundwater monitoring program, managed regionally by the central environmental department to monitor the impacts of our operations on the local water resources. Water sampling is done as per approved water sampling program for surface and groundwater, that specify type, frequency and analysis of the sampling required, i.e. surface water sample, frequency is monthly and parameters analyzed Ph, TDS, SO4, U, etc. The sampling program is aligned with the requirements of the pending Water Use License Applications submitted to DWS. Water Quality samples is collected by external consultant (Aquatico), as per the sampling program, that follow a strict sampling procedure defining the sampling protocol and quality controls required when taking a water quality sample. Attached a copy of the sampling procedure. The water analysis is done at a external SANAS accredited laboratory according to SANAS approved procedure. All water quality data is emailed in pdf format analysis certificate and captured on a water quality database. Water quality data is compared against different public water quality standards to and exceedances investigated. The water quality results is also communicated to DWS on 6 monthly basis. Harmony have a good understanding of the local geology and geohydrology through numerous geohydrological and mass transport models done over the years. 7.8 Geotechnical Data Geological exploration drilling is not typically used to gather geotechnical data – these data are gathered independently by the Geotechnical Engineer. Geotechnical issues related to underground workings are discussed in more detail in Section 13.3.

8.7 Assaying Methods and Analytical Procedures For the period 1 January to 30 June 2023 a total of 36,516 samples were submitted for analysis of gold. Gold is analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish, while uranium is analyzed by XRD. For a period ranging from 2010 up to March 2020, the development and drill hole reef samples were also assayed for uranium. After the preparation stage the samples are packed into trays and transported to the fluxing-room. A catch weight aliquot of ±25g and a flux aliquot of ±100g is placed into a fire assay crucible and thoroughly mixed. The samples are then transferred to the ovens for the fusion process. The cupellation process is where the precious metals are collected in a lead button and then separated from the lead by means of oxidation fusion. The gold prill is then added to a nitric acid solution to dissolve the silver and thereafter the remaining gold prill is weighed to determine its mass relative to the original sample mass. To ensure that a high standard of analysis is maintained, each step of the analytical process and procedure, including the adherence to safety standards, is checked by a supervisor. 8.8 Sampling and Assay Quality Control (“QC”) Procedures and Quality Assurance (“QA”) The assessment of assaying accuracy and precision is carried out using certified Standard Reference Materials (“SRM”), blanks and duplicates. SRMs, blank samples and duplicate samples are added with the underground chip sample and drill hole core sample streams prior to being sent to the assay laboratory. In addition, regular audits of the laboratory processes and facilities are conducted by mine evaluators and regional experts to monitor compliance and quality controls. 8.8.1 Standards A range of SRMs were sourced from African Minerals Standards (“AMIS”) and inserted into the sample sequence by the logging geologist. For analysis of surface and underground drill holes, a minimum of one gold SRM is required for every 20 drill hole samples assayed. This equates to approximately 5% of the total drill hole samples analyzed for Tshepong North, and approximately 6% for Phakisa. Laboratory statistical control is deemed acceptable should SRMs be within two standard deviations of the recommended value. Investigative action is taken when reference materials returned exceed the standard deviation limit. If the SRM or blank sample has been deemed to have failed, the entire batch of samples re-assayed with the failed QAQC sample having to be identified. A request must then be sent to the laboratory requesting the laboratory to repeat the assay procedure on all samples within the batch. A second SRM or blank sample is provided to the laboratory to include with the batch of samples. Should the batch of samples fail the QAQC standards again, these samples are excluded from the sampling database (not captured in the sampling system), and the panel/drill hole will have to be resampled if necessary. A total of 1,238 SRMs were submitted to Harmony Assay Laboratory for Tshepong between January 2022 and June 2023. The results are summarised in Table 8-1. Seventeen out of 1238 samples (0.1%) failed, and the respective sample trays deleted from the system and do not form part of model.

The lowest detection limit at the laboratory is 0.063g/t. Ten samples plotted outside the 3x detection limit. Failed samples were queried from the lab and re-assays were requested. If the re-assays failed the sample sheet was deleted from the system. 8.8.3 Duplicates For the samples analysed at Harmony Assay Laboratory during January 2022 to June 2023, results of duplicate analysis indicated correlation at lower grades. A total of 2,187 duplicate samples were analysed for Tshepong and, out of the analysis, a total of 835 samples (38%) were outside the average required mean value. Failures were queried during the central QA/QC meetings held every six months. 8.9 Comment on Sample Preparation, Analyses and Security In the opinion of the QP that: • the drill core sampling method is appropriate for the mineralisation styles encountered at Tshepong North; • all underground chip sampling is representative of the channel sampled; • the sample preparation, security and analytical procedures followed for gold grade determination are adequate; and • the results of the QAQC assessment have been appropriately addressed to ensure that the assay results of the primary samples are adequate for Mineral Resource estimation. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 37 9 Data verification Section 229.601(b)(96) (9) (i-iii) 9.1 Databases Tshepong North drill hole and underground channel sampling data was previously captured and stored in AuBIS electronic database. Upon acquisition of the mine, Harmony has migrated to data capture in the GMSITM system. Geological core logging is stored using both Deswik CADTM (“Deswik”) and DatamineTM Fusion (“Datamine”). This database is protected through administration rights allocated to an authorised administrator. 9.2 Data Verification Procedures Data verification procedures included the following: • the drill hole database was checked against the original logs; • the database was integrated with DeswikTM and DatamineTM software to check for missing collar coordinates, collar position and elevation errors, downhole survey errors, interval errors and duplicate sample records; • when assay results were returned from the laboratory, they were captured into the electronic database by the Senior Evaluator and Geologist. The QC sample results were assessed for performance before the primary sample results could be used for Mineral Resource estimation; • the primary assay results captured in the database were validated by spot checking a selection of drill holes used in the current Mineral Resource estimate; and • the assays captured in the electronic database were checked against the original laboratory certificates. The QP did data verification and did not identify any critical errors in the database. 9.3 Limitations to the Data Verification Previous data has been verified through various methodologies i.e. a “post plot” of all sample points relative to the mine workings are made in order to locate any co-ordination errors. When “manual” capturing (re- digitising old assay tracings) of data occurs, there is a risk that entire sample sheets may plotted incorrectly due to the use of incorrect projections and or scales/constants. All co-ordination errors are identified and corrected. 9.4 Comment on Data Verification The QP is of the opinion that the Tshepong drill hole and sample databases are reliable and adequate for the purposes Mineral Resource estimation. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 38 10.4 Commentary of Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing The metallurgical test work showed the potential to upgrade the ore through HLS. Notwithstanding there being insufficient material mass of Beatrix Reef to conduct gold fire assays, the QEMSCAN data showed that there was an upgrading of the gold grains. The QEMSCAN data further showed that most gold grains are associated with the sulphides. It is a particularly useful analysis method for determining losses of sulphides and precious metal phases to silicate-rich tails. The process efficiency was determined to have total gold recovery typically ranging c.95% - 97% and gold not dissolved, typically c.4 %. The test work was representative of the ore being treated at Tshepong North. The reader is referred to the Modifying Factors Section 12.2.2, respectively, which contain the recoveries used for the LOM Plans for Tshepong North. A detailed description of the processing facilities is provided in Section 14. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 40


 
11 Mineral Resource Estimate Section 229.601(b)(96) (11) (i-vii) The current Mineral Resources for Tshepong North have been estimated using DatamineTM Studio 3 (“Datamine”) modelling software, which is linked to a customised scripting menu. This scripting menu allows for professional and easy managing of the data and building of geostatistical models. The narrow-tabular nature of the reefs lends themselves to the estimation of grade and thickness in two- dimensional (“2D”) block models, without the requirements for geological wireframes. An independent process of building a set of three-dimensional (“3D”) wireframes of the structural interpretation to inform mine planning and the Mineral Reserve estimates is also undertaken. The estimation method used for Measured Mineral Resource estimates at Tshepong North is ordinary kriging (“OK”), while simple macro kriging (“SMK”) is used for Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource estimates. 11.1 Geological Database Tshepong North’s Mineral Resource estimate is based on the surface and underground exploration data obtained up to 30 December 2023. The database was exported from the electronic database to DatamineTM modelling software. The Basal Reef validated database contains a total of 2,198 surface and underground drill holes and 517,796 underground channel (chip) samples. The B Reef validated database contains a total of 310 surface and underground drill holes, and 50,336 underground channel (chip) samples. 11.2 Global Statistics Histograms and statistics of the raw data are calculated for each geological domain for comparison purposes. The Coefficient of Variation ("COV"), calculated by dividing the standard deviation with the mean, gives a measure of the variability of the data. A high COV (>1) represents highly variable or highly skewed data, which may require some form of capping of extreme values to lower the COV to a more reasonable value (c.1). The global statistics for the Basal and B reefs, reported according to geozones, are provided in Table 11-1. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 41 11.6 Capping Outlying values (both for cmg/t and channel width) are calculated per domain at an optimal percentile using the “QUANTILE” process. The capping allows for meaningful Semi-Variogram modelling and avoids potential over-estimation due to extreme sample values. The capping values applied are shown in Table 11-2. 11.7 Variography The experimental semi-variogram is a descriptive statistical diagnostic tool for spatially characterizing regionalized variables. The semi-variogram is a mathematical function that describes how the spatial continuity of the sampled attribute changes as a function of distance and orientation. Either an isotropic or an anisotropic model can be defined, comprising a nugget variance and up to nine individual structures, although it is rarely necessary to include more than three structures. Each structure may be either spherical, power, exponential, Gaussian or De Wijsian, although spherical models are deemed adequate for Tshepong North and Phakisa. Point-support semi-variograms were modelled for closely sampled areas eventually classified as Measured Mineral Resources; 60m x 60m declustered-support semi- variograms are modelled for the Indicated Mineral Resources and 120m x 120m declustered-support semi- variograms are modelled for the Inferred Mineral Resources. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 43 The Measured Mineral Resource model is constrained using the Slope of Regression Estimation Confidence and merged with the Indicated Mineral Resource and Mineral Resource models to produce a combined kriged block model. The channel width is estimated for all block sizes and ranges between 8cm and 34cm, averaging 18cm for Basal Reef. For B Reef, the channel width ranges between 52cm and 94cm and averages 79cm. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 47 The Measured Mineral Resource model is constrained using the Slope of Regression Estimation Confidence and merged with the Indicated Mineral Resource and Mineral Resource models to produce a combined kriged block model. The channel width is estimated for all block sizes and ranges between 8cm and 34cm, averaging 18cm for Basal Reef. For B Reef, the channel width ranges between 52cm and 94cm and averages 79cm. 11.9 Density Assignment The relative density currently used for tonnage calculations at Tshepong North is 2.72t/m³. Reef volume is determined by block area multiplied by the thickness estimate. The tonnage of each reef horizon is determined by multiplying the volume by the relative density. 11.10 Model Validation The QP validated the Tshepong North Mineral Resource model using the following: • visual comparisons with the raw drill hole data; • comparisons of the raw drill hole data statistics with the model statistics; • model volume; and • visual assessment of the block model with drill hole intersections to ensure that the grades are locally honoured by the model. The QP did not identify any critical errors in the block model. 11.11 Mineral Resource Evaluation The Mineral Resource estimate for Tshepong North done by the QP is considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. This is demonstrated by the results of the cash flow for the mines. The cut-off value for the Mineral Resources is determined at 648cmg/t, Tshepong North and 780cmg/t, Phakisa for the gold based on the economic assumptions presented in Table 11-3 at the effective date 30 June 2023. This cut-off value represents typical costs for the mining method and preliminary mining and metallurgical recovery assumptions. Table 11-3: Harmony Economic Assumptions (30 June 2023) Tshepong North Description Unit Value Gold price USD/oz 1 764 FX rate ZAR:USD 16.22 Gold price ZAR/kg 920 000 Plant recovery factor % 95.0 Unit cost ZAR/t 4 075 Notes: Unit cost includes cash operating cost, royalty and ongoing development capital The gold price was derived by the Harmony Executive Committee at Head Office. Based on a market study findings the QP agrees on pricing and considers the price to be appropriate for Mineral Resource estimation and is slightly higher than that used for estimating Mineral Reserves (USD1,582/oz). The operating costs (both mining and processing) are based on historical performance and budget. 11.12 Mineral Resource Classification and Uncertainties The Tshepong North Mineral Resources have been classified into Measured, Indicated and Inferred categories, according to the S-K 1300 definitions. The classification is based on drill hole spacing, geological and geostatistical confidence. For the geostatistical confidence, the Measured Mineral Resource model is constrained by the Slope of Regression Estimation Confidence, and the Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource models are constrained by their kriging estimation parameters. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 48


 
The QP then considers if the geostatistical confidence boundaries require modification based on the geological confidence in an area. The geological confidence could include confidence in the sedimentary facies and mineralisation model, or confidence in the structural model. The application of the classification criteria results in the following set of approximate sample spacings for each Mineral Resource category: • 5m x 5m for Measured Mineral Resources (underground channel sampling); • 100m x 100m for Indicated Mineral Resources; and • 1,000m x 1,000m for Inferred Mineral Resources. Mineral Resources are discounted by a geological loss to account for unknown but anticipated fault loss. The discounts used for the Basal Reef are between: • 1% and 3% for Measured Mineral Resources; • 3% and 11% for Indicated Mineral Resources; and • 7% and 60% for Inferred Mineral Resources. Similar information applies to the for B Reef. Factors that may affect the Mineral Resource estimates include the following: • gold price assumptions; • exchange rate assumptions; • operating and capital cost assumptions; • gold recovery assumptions; • geology-related risks; and • operational risks. 11.13 Mineral Resource Estimate The Mineral Resources for Tshepong North were originally prepared, classified and reported according to SAMREC, 2016. For the purposes of this TRS, the Mineral Resources have been classified in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of Regulation S-K).

The Qualified Person responsible for the estimate is Mr A Louw, who is Ore Reserve Manager at Tshepong North, and a Harmony employee. 2. Tonnes, grade, and gold content are declared as net delivered to the mills. 3. Figures are fully inclusive of all mining dilutions, gold losses and are reported as mill delivered tonnes and head grades. Metallurgical recovery factors have not been applied to the reserve figures. 4. Gold content has not taken metallurgical recovery factors into account. 5. Mineral Reserves are reported using a cut-off grade of 800cmg/t determined using a gold price of USD1,582/oz gold. 12.2.4 Mineral Reserve Reconciliation The declared Mineral Reserve decreased from 0.771Moz as at 30 June 2022 to 0.602Moz as at 30 June 2023. Decrease mainly as a result in the increase in the cut off grade from 650cmgt to 800cmgt. 12.2 Commentary on Mineral Reserve Estimate The declared Mineral Reserves takes into consideration all Modifying Factors, respective to the mining area. The declared Mineral Reserves are depleted to generate Tshepong North cash flows. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 54 The USD currency and Gold The inverse relationship between the value of U.S. dollar (USD) and that of gold is one of the most discussed about relationships in currency markets. The U.S. Dollar (USD) is the internationally accepted currency and most of the international transactions take place in Dollar/USD equivalent. The major reason behind the relationship of gold and the USD, is that gold is used as a hedge against the adverse exchange value of the USD. As the dollar’s exchange value decreases, it takes more USD to buy gold, which increases the value of gold. Two other factors linked to the USD, or the strength of the USD is inflation and interest rates. Inflation has remained high throughout 2022 and well into 2023 in the U.S. and in many other countries. Central banks like the Fed, ECB, and BoE have already hiked rates to try and bring inflation down. Rates will continue to rise while inflation remains high. High interest rates are generally seen as a negative for gold as a non-yielding asset, though high inflation is usually seen as a positive for gold as a hedge against inflation. 16.4 Gold Price 16.4.1 Historical Gold Price In early August 2020, the London Bullion Market Association (“LBMA”) gold price reached historical highs and remained relatively high for the rest of the year (Figure 16-1). The London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) gold price reached a record annual average price of US$1,800.09/oz in 2022. The upward trajectory continued into the first quarter of 2023 where gold prices averaged 10% higher at US$1,890.2/oz on a quarter-on-quarter basis. According to the World Gold Council’s May 2023 Gold Market Commentary, “Gold prices remain rangebound, having failed to establish a foothold above the psychologically important US$2,000.00 level. It appears that over the past year, gold has been more influenced by the US dollar than on average, as well as taking its cues from the 2-year US TIP yield rather than the more commonly associated 10-year.” 16.4.2 Forecast Gold Price The minimum and maximum consensus gold price range for the year 202122 to year 20254 is presented in FigureTable 16.21. The long-term gold prices are considered from year 2025 onwards by the QP. Forecasts as advised from various financial institutions show that gold is expected to trade in a range of USD1,804/oz - USD1,901/oz, for the period 2022 to 2025 with a long-term outlook of USD1,521/oz. The gold price forecast of USD1,521/ozUSD1,582/oz, used in the Tshepong North LOM planning cashflow, is considered conservative by the QP if corroborated against a long-term broker consensus gold price outlook (Figure 16 2).of USD1,837/oz(Table 16.1).

The key features of the hedging programme are as follows: • the policy provides for hedging (or forward selling) up to a maximum of 20% of expected gold production for a rolling 24-month period; • the policy has no minimum quantity that should be hedged, and if an attractive margin above cost cannot be achieved (i.e., in a low gold price environment) then no hedges are entered into; • Harmony enters into ZAR-denominated gold hedges for its South African operations (for the non- South African assets it enters into USD-denominated hedges); • Individual mines do not enter into hedges in their own name but delivers bullion to Rand Refinery for refining on behalf of Harmony. Rand Refinery is one of the world’s largest single-site precious metals refining and smelting complex in the world. Rand Refinery refine all of Harmony’s gold to at least 99.5% purity, and acting as agent, sells the gold on the daily spot London fixing price and make payment to the Harmony two days later; Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 81


 
18 Capital and Operating Costs Section 229.601(b)(96) (18) (i-ii) Economic parameters for the Harmony Group, including capital and operating costs, are determined, and signed off by the CODM, before distribution to the business units, including Tshepong North. The capital and operating costs are reported in ZAR terms and on a real basis. Rounding of figures may result in minor computational discrepancies. Seperate cash flows are run for LOM business plans and for Mineral Reserves as the LOM business plan can include Inferred Mineral Resources in the schedule which is excluded in the Mineral Reserve. Capital and Operating costs are aligned with the mine design, extraction schedule and estimated Gold production of the two plans. In the case of Tshepong North Operation, certain B-Reef Inferred Mineral Resources were included during the economic assessment of the June 2023 LOM Plan. For the past 15 years, the B-Reef has drawn attention for its economic viability with focus on improving confidence in the geological model, as well as adding and upgrading Mineral Resources to replace the mining depletion and is mined as a secondary reef. The Inferred Mineral Resources included in the LOM Plan are supported by limited drilling and underground sampling, however are within close proximity to the current Proved and Probable Mineral Reserves. The QP has identified that further geological confirmation drilling is required to improve and upgrade the Inferred Mineral Resources into Mineral Reserves. During the June 2023 Mineral Resource assessment, an exploration strategy was approved and comprised of an extensive drilling program to convert the Inferred Mineral Resources into Indicated Resources. Furthermore, as the current mining faces move towards the areas of Inferred Mineral Resources, additional stope sampling information becomes available, which pushes the estimation confidence halos into the Inferred Resource areas. 18.1 Capital Costs The estimated capital costs for Tshepong North are reported according to costs associated with major equipment outside the main operating sections which is termed AE, infrastructure development, as well as operating capital, as presented in Table 18-1. An average contingency of 10% is applied where the capital cost estimates have a level of uncertainty, for example, where a capital project is an isolated occurrence. Where the capital cost estimates have a reasonable basis, there is no contingency applied. The estimated capital costs are carried forward and modelled in the Tshepong North cash flow. 18.2 Operating Costs A summary of the direct and indirect operating costs for Tshepong North as per LOM 2024 are presented in Table 18-2. Operating costs are based on historic performance while applying any changes expected within the new financial year (such as electricity requirements, increased/decreased labour) and are used as an input into the Tshepong North’ cash flow model. 18.3 Comment on Capital and Operating Costs The capital and operating cost estimates for Tshepong North are based on actual historical data, as well as budget forecasts. Therefore, the forecasted costs are reliable, and at minimum meet the confidence levels of a Pre-Feasibility Study. This approach of estimating capital and operating costs is consistent with industry practice. A record of the forecast and budget costs is maintained by the operation, allowing for an assessment of the alignment of the forecast and actual costs.

On an annual basis, during the period October to November, long-term commodity prices and exchange rates forecasts’, are received from various financial institutions. In addition, a specialist in Economics from a reputable economics company based in South Africa, provides expert views on the global markets, forward looking commodity prices, exchange rates, consumer price index, production price index, electricity cost and consumable increases. All factors are analysed, cognisance is taken of the requirements of the NYSE and JSE markets, and a proposal is presented to the CODM for recommendation and approval. These assumptions are then applied at Tshepong North, along with specific operational considerations. 19.1.1 Gold Price The forecast gold price (USD1,582/oz) is the price that is used by Harmony for the Tshepong North annual planning cycle and forms the basis for the spot gold price assumptions used in the Tshepong North cashflow. The reader is referred to Figure 16-2 for the consensus forecast gold price. The conversions used in the calculation of the various gold prices is presented in Table 19-1. The gold price forecast of ZAR825,000/kg (USD1,582/oz and ZAR:USD exchange rate forecast of R16.22/US$), used in the Tshepong North LOM and Mineral Reserve cash flows, is considered conservative by the QP if corroborated against a consensus view on gold price outlook of ZAR1,064,868/kg (USD1,837/oz and ZAR:USD exchange rate forecast of R18.03/US$).(Table 19-3A and Table 19-3B).

Moving onto the second quarter of 2023, the South African Rand depreciated further by 5.2% to average at R18.67/US$ on a quarter-on-quarter basis. The trade of the South African Rand (ZAR) to the U.S. Dollar (USD) is an important trade, as further weakness in ZAR can be expected in the medium term, after recent comments by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell alluded to further interest rate hikes to curb inflation, giving the USD further upside against the Rand. Recent levels of the Rand (ZAR), which had seen the local currency appreciate by more than 4% against the USD, since the start of June 2023, making it the second-best-performing emerging market currency over this period and in recent trades. The proposed spot exchange rate of 16.22 ZAR:USD is the exchange rate that is used by Harmony for the annual planning cycle and forms the basis for the ZAR:USD exchange rate assumptions used in the company LOM and Mineral Reserve cashflow.

Of that, 5% of total revenue is exempt from taxation while the remainder is taxable at a higher rate (33%) than non-mining income (27%). Accounting depreciation is eliminated when calculating the South African mining tax income. Excess capital expenditure is carried forward as unredeemed capital to be claimed against future mining taxable income. 19.1.5 Summary The key assumptions used in the cash flow are summarised for Tshepong North in Table 19-33C.

The past year’s average gold price is used for testing purposes. A gold price of ZAR825,000/kg is used for forecasting the revenue of the Tshepong North LOM cash flows (Table 19-14A). The discounted cash flow model is used to calculate the Net Present Value (“NPV”) of the LOM investments. The NPV for the spot metal price, for Tshepong North LOM is approximately ZAR -123.958 Ml, at a discount rate of 9%. At a ZERO discount rate the Cash flow is positive at ZAR 8.435Ml The contribution for Reserves is ZAR-894Ml cash negative at a gold price of ZAR825,000/kg (Table 19-4B). Sensitivities were done on commodity price and costs. A 10% upside change on the forward looking long term gold price results into a ZAR 566Ml positive cash flow at a gold price of ZAR907,500/kg (Table 19-5B). This is considered conservative by the QP if corroborated against a consensus view on gold price outlook of ZAR1,064,868/kg (USD1,837/oz and ZAR:USD exchange rate forecast of R18.03/US$). The NPV is calculated on a cash flow that accounts for factors such as: • mining and ore processing working costs; • royalty payments; • capital costs, including costs allocated to ongoing development; • any significant project work considered as major projects; and • costs deemed as abnormal expenditure. 19.3 Sensitivity Analysis The economic assumptions, cash flow breakdown and economic analysis contribute to the basis for the sensitivity analysis. The sensitivities are calculated and analysed, as shown in the accompanying Table 19-5,A&B and Table 19-6 and Table 19-7A&B. Harmony has reviewed its exposure in terms of South Africa’s political instability, the COVID-19 pandemic, the currency exchange rate, and the gold price, on its financial assets and financial liabilities, and has determined the sensitivities for a ±10% variance. Management considers this range to be a reasonable change given the volatility in the market. The sensitivity analysis is completed for the LOM plan and Mineral Reserves for variations in commodity price (ZAR/kg), and total operating costs, which include capital costs and royalties paid (ZAR); and a combined analysis considering variations in commodity price, total operating costs, and changes in production.. Capital investments in Tshepong North are relatively low and not expected to have any significant impact on the NPV and therefore not included in a sensitivity analysis. The base case in the analysis below is the economic results emanating from the LOM plan and Mineral Reserves(Table 19-44A&B). The sensitivity analysis (Table 19-5A&B and Table 19-6A&B) is based on a change in a single assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, as risks and/or opportunities will have an impact on the cash flows, and changes in some of these assumptions may be correlated. The insights that can be provided by this sensitivity analysis is that Tshepong North is mostalmost equally sensitive to changes in the gold price, closely followed byprice (ZAR/kg), as to changes in costs. total operating costs (ZAR). The impact of one or a combination of risks and opportunities occurring at the same time cannot be specifically quantified so an analysis considering multi-parameters is not considered. In this way the general risks, with the aid of the sensitivity table (Table 19-7) are adequately covered. The sensitivity analysis considering the 3 variations of gold price (ZAR/kg), operating costs (ZAR) and variation in production (kg Au) show that the lowering of working costs, improvement in productivity and the benefits of a higher gold price can have positive impacts on the Tshepong North Mine.

Tshepong North adheres to said compliance and regulatory standards and have, in addition, implemented an Environmental Management System in line with the ISO 14001. As part of Harmony, Tshepong North conducts its operations based on policies and systems that are aligned to its corporate sustainable development framework. This is guided by the principles of the framework from the International Council on Mining and Metals or the UN Global Compact. Harmony discloses its sustainable development voluntarily in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Global Reporting Initiative. Further to this, Harmony discloses environmental information on the Carbon Disclosure Project for both climate change and water. Harmony has a good understanding of the environmental and social aspects through baseline and specialist studies previously conducted. Risk management and mitigation measures were adequately addressed in the environmental management plans. Most of the required environmental authorisations are in place and only require amendments to be made to reflect the current infrastructure at Tshepong North. Based on current industry norms, a realistic timeframe to obtain relevant authorisations is estimated between 12 and 18 months. One of the ways Harmony aims to grow and develop the people and assets and provide sustainable value to all stakeholders is through economic regeneration. The economics ofNPV for the LOM spot metal price, for Tshepong North is based on the discounted cash flow model, withapproximately ZAR -123.958 Ml, at a discount rate of 9%. The LOM NPV at 0 % discount is approximately ZAR 8.435 Ml, The contribution for Reserves is ZAR -894Ml cash negative at a metalgold price of ZAR825,000/kg. The NPV forSensitivities were done on commodity price and costs. Considering a 10% upside in the metal price, is ZAR-123,958Ml,commodity price sensitivity on the forward looking long term gold price this results into a ZAR 566Ml positive cash flow at a discountgold price of ZAR907,500/kg. This is considered conservative by the QP if corroborated against a consensus view on gold price outlook of ZAR1,064,868/kg (USD1,837/oz and ZAR:USD exchange rate forecast of 9%. R18.03/US$) and in the opinion of the QP the Tshepong North pre- feasibility study demonstrates economic viability in support of a disclosure of a mineral reserve. The NPV is calculated on cash flow taking into account factors such as: capital and operating costs; and royalties. The capital and operating cost estimates for Tshepong North are based on historical data, as well as budget forecasts. This estimation technique allows for the forecast and actual costs to be aligned. Royalties and taxes are paid to the South African government and accounted for in the Tshepong North cash flow and NPV analysis. There are also specific tax relief benefits that apply to gold mining companies, where 5% of total revenue is exempt from taxation, amongst other benefits. In addition, in response to challenges faced by companies during the COVID-19 pandemic, the government have implemented various stimulus packages to provide some tax relief to companies. The economics of Tshepong North are tested for its sensitivity to commodity price (ZAR/kg), and operating costs (ZAR) gold production (kg).. The insights provided by the sensitivity analysis is that Tshepong North is mostalmost equally sensitive to changes in the gold price (ZAR/kg), closely followed byas to changes in total operating costs (ZAR). This TRS was prepared by a team of experienced professionals. The TRS provides a summary of the material scientific and technical information concerning the mineral exploration, Mineral Resources, Mineral Reserves, and associated production activities of the mineral asset, including references to the valuation for Tshepong North. Each QP was responsible for specific sections of this TRS which they have personally supervised and reviewed. This TRS contains the expression of the QP opinions, based on the information available at the time of preparation. Technical Report Summary for Tshepong North, Free State Province, South Africa Effective Date: 30 June 2023 103 23 Recommendations Section 229.601(b)(96) (23) The gold output can be optimised through improvement of quality of mining and this will result in achieving planned shaft call factor. This impact will be realised through our currently implemented Business Initiative programme that will look at driving quality of mining through measures such as in-stope water controls and better fragmentation during blasting to contain the gold.
