    THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) NO. 596/2014. 30 April 2019 Proposed Strategic Transaction with Equity Group Holdings Atlas Mara Limited ("Atlas Mara" or the "Company" and including its subsidiaries, the “Group”), the sub- Saharan African financial services group, announces that it has entered into a binding term sheet with Equity Group Holdings Plc (“EGH”) for the exchange of certain banking assets of the Company in four countries for ordinary shares in EGH (the “Proposed Transaction”). The Proposed Transaction is subject to confirmatory due diligence, definitive transaction documentation, relevant regulatory approvals, and other conditions precedent customary for transactions of this nature. As part of the Proposed Transaction, EGH would acquire for shares in EGH Atlas Mara’s 62% shareholding in Banque Populaire du Rwanda (BPR) and, via the Company’s subsidiary ABC Holdings Limited, all of Atlas Mara’s indirect interests in African Banking Corporation Zambia (BancABC Zambia), African Banking Corporation Tanzania (BancABC Tanzania), and African Banking Corporation Mozambique (BancABC Mozambique). The parties would anticipate mergers of their respective banks within each of Rwanda and Tanzania. The Company expects to receive as consideration approximately 252,482,300 ordinary shares of EGH representing approximately 6.27% of the pro forma share capital of EGH post-closing. This implies the consideration to be paid is the equivalent of approximately USD 105.4 million. The aggregate consideration ultimately payable will be that set out in the definitive agreements negotiated following confirmatory due diligence, and may be subject to adjustment (positive or negative), based on the performance of the banks through consummation of the transactions, and on the net asset value of the banks at the time of closing relative to the net asset value they reported as at 31 December 2018.
