Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 10, 2023, MiX Telematics Limited, a public company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of South Africa (the “Company”), entered into an Implementation Agreement (the “Agreement”), by and among the Company, PowerFleet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Powerfleet”), and Main Street 2000 Proprietary Limited, a private company incorporated in the Republic of South Africa and a wholly owned subsidiary of Powerfleet (“Powerfleet Sub”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Powerfleet Sub will acquire all of the issued ordinary shares of the Company, including the ordinary shares represented by the Company’s American Depositary Shares (collectively, the “MiX Telematics shares”), through the implementation of a scheme of arrangement (the “Scheme”) in accordance with Sections 114 and 115 of the South African Companies Act, No. 71 of 2008, in exchange for shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Powerfleet (each, a “Powerfleet share”). As a result of the transactions, including the Scheme, contemplated by the Agreement, the Company will become an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Powerfleet.
On March 27, 2024, the Company issued a press release to the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (the “JSE”) announcing the cash payment applicable to fractional entitlements in relation to the Scheme. The consideration payable to the Scheme Participants (as defined in the Scheme Circular attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on January 30, 2024) is 0.12762 Powerfleet shares for every MiX Telematics share held by each Scheme Participant. In the event that a Scheme Participant is entitled to a fraction of a Powerfleet share, such fractional entitlement will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, resulting in the allocation of whole Powerfleet shares and a cash payment for the fraction. Scheme Participants are advised that, in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, the value of a Powerfleet share to be utilized in determining the fractional cash payment due to scheme participants is 8 161.24032 ZAR cents, being the weighted average traded price of a Powerfleet share traded on the Nasdaq on Tuesday, 26 March 2024 and converted from USD at the prevailing exchange rate on the day of USD:1.00:ZAR18.9312, discounted by 10%. The full text of the press release, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this Item 7.01, including the information contained in the presentation furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

CASH PAYMENT APPLICABLE TO FRACTIONAL ENTITLEMENTS |
Unless otherwise indicated, capitalised words and terms contained in this announcement shall bear the same meanings ascribed thereto in the joint firm intention announcement published by MiX Telematics and Powerfleet, Inc. (“Powerfleet”) on SENS on 10 October 2023.
Shareholders are referred:
•the circular published on 30 January 2024 relating to a proposed merger between MiX Telematics and Powerfleet to be implemented by way of a Scheme between MiX Telematics and MiX Telematics shareholders, in terms of which Powerfleet (via Merger Sub) will acquire all of the MiX Telematics shares held by Scheme Participants (“Scheme Shares”), in issue in exchange for the Scheme Consideration; and
•the finalisation announcement, published on Friday, 15 March 2024, confirming that the Scheme has become wholly unconditional.
CASH PAYMENT APPLICABLE TO FRACTIONAL ENTITLEMENTS IN RELATION TO THE SCHEME
As set out in the circular, the consideration payable to the Scheme Participants is 0.12762 shares of Powerfleet common stock for every MiX Telematics share held by each Scheme Participant. Where the Scheme Consideration results in a Scheme Participant becoming entitled to a fraction of a Powerfleet share, such fractional entitlement will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, resulting in the allocation of whole shares and a cash payment for the fraction.
Scheme Participants are advised that, in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, the value of a Powerfleet share to be utilised in determining the fractional cash payment due to scheme participants is 8 161.24032 ZAR cents, being the weighted average traded price of a Powerfleet share traded on the Nasdaq on Tuesday, 26 March 2024 and converted from USD at the prevailing exchange rate on the day of USD:1.00:ZAR18.9312, discounted by 10%.
By way of example:
Assuming that a Scheme Participant holds 1 000 Scheme Shares at the close of business on Thursday, 28 March 2024, the record date by which MiX Shareholders must be recorded in the share register of MiX Telematics in order to be eligible to receive the Scheme Consideration, such Scheme Participant will be entitled to receive 127.62000 Powerfleet shares in terms of the Scheme. However, applying the rounding principle detailed above, such Scheme Participant will, following the implementation of the Scheme, receive 127 Powerfleet shares and a cash payment in respect of the fractional entitlement of 0.62000 in the amount of 5 059.96900 ZAR cents (“cash payment”), being 8 161.24032 ZAR cents x 0.62.
The tax treatment of the cash payment is dependent on an individual shareholder’s circumstances and the jurisdiction applicable to each Scheme Participant. It is recommended that Scheme Participants who are uncertain about the tax treatment of the receipt of the cash payment should seek appropriate advice in this regard.
The salient dates and times announced on Friday, 15 March 2024 remain unchanged.
