| 1 2 3 4 5 6 Chemicals Business at a glance (CONTINUED) Delivery on asset divestment programme We made significant progress in delivering on our previously announced asset divestiture programme with approximately R36,6 billion of transactions completed during the year. The largest divestments occurred in America with the divestment of a 50% interest in Sasol’s Base Chemicals Business in Lake Charles to LyondellBasell for US$2 billion on 1 December 2020. In addition, we divested our 50% interest in the Gemini HDPE joint venture to INEOS for US$0,4 billion on 31 December 2020. Smaller divestments also occurred in Eurasia associated with the sale of our share of the ARG ethylene pipeline and in Africa associated with a further sell-down of our % shareholding in Enaex Africa to a Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) partner. Lastly, we announced in July 2021 an agreement to sell our sodium cyanide business for a consideration of R1,5 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of CY22 subject to the fulfillment of various conditions precedent. Sustainability Global momentum behind the energy transition is growing, impacting the chemicals industry but also creating opportunities. The urgency to respond to climate change is being felt throughout our value chain and collaboration with our suppliers and customers is critical. We aim to reduce our absolute scope 1 and 2 emissions by 30%# by 2030 in all our regional operating segments with an ambition to be net zero by 2050. # Off 2017 base. CCR For more detail refer to our Climate Change Report Performance summary The Chemicals Business delivered a strong financial performance in FY21 with adjusted EBITDA almost 70% higher than the previous year. This was despite adverse weather events in both the United States and South Africa impacting production and the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The average sales basket price (US$/t) was 17% higher compared to the prior year while sales volumes were only 3% lower. Strict cost control and disciplined capital management were maintained, while the asset divestiture programme was further advanced with a number of divestments completed across all the regional segments. Chemicals Africa Sales volumes from our South African-based assets were 1% higher compared to the prior year despite the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic and a power outage at the Sasolburg site caused by a severe storm at the end of December 2020. The average sales basket price (US$/t) for the financial year was 14% higher compared to the prior year due to a combination of improved demand, higher oil prices and reduced market supply from the weather-related events in the United States and global supply chain challenges due to the continued COVID-19 pandemic. EBIT for the year of R7 billion increased by more than 100% compared to prior year largely due to the aforementioned increase in the US$/ton basket sales price, sales volumes and a reduction of impairments recognised from FY20. We recognised a total of R9 billion of impairments related to both our Wax (R7,9 billion) and Chlor-Vinyls (R1,1 billion) cash-generating units (CGU) in FY21 largely due to higher costs associated with gas feedstocks in future years, lower planned sales volumes, stronger rand/US dollar exchange rate and planned divestment of the sodium cyanide business. We recognised a net reversal of impairments (R4,5 billion) in FY21 largely associated with the Ethylene Oxide/Ethylene Glycol (EO/EG) unit following a reassessment of the CGU within America. Safety In a year of significant change and challenges, we continued our relentless focus on zero harm. There were no fatalities or life-altering injuries in the year. Our recordable case rate (RCR) remained the same as previous year at 0,29 while the fires, explosions and releases severity rate (FER-SR) increased from 9,9 to 10,8. On the positive side, our transporter indicator of performance (TiOP) improved from 1,56 to 0,72. We prioritised employee wellbeing with an attitude of care and empathy particularly evident from leadership during our Sasol 2.0 transformation programme. Chemicals Eurasia Sales volumes from our Eurasian-based assets for the financial year were 4% higher than the prior year, despite the divestment of Sasol’s share in the Sasol Wilmar Joint Operation in the 2020 financial year. The increase in sales volumes continued to be driven by improved market demand, mainly for our Essential Care Chemicals and Performance Solutions products, especially surfactants and wax, whereas demand for other product applications (notably Advanced Materials) continues to be negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and associated restrictions in certain markets. The average sales basket price (US$/ton) increased by 13% compared to the prior year. EBIT for the year of R4,7 billion increased by more than 100% compared to the prior year largely due to the aforementioned increase in both the basket sales price, sales volumes and absence of impairments (R2,4 billion) recognised in FY20. available on our website, www.sasol.com We are advancing the development of renewable and circular drop-in feedstocks in collaboration with our customers and supply partners, which will support reduction of scope 3 GHG emissions over time. Renewable electricity plays a critical role in our GHG reduction plans. With increasing electrification of energy markets comes the need for increasingly demanding chemistry in battery, automotive and power markets. Our growth and innovation efforts are aligned with these powerful megatrends and focused on developing solutions for our customers using our unique chemistry. Operating segment contribution to adjusted FY21 EBITDA Rand billion Chemicals America Sales volumes from our America-based assets for the year ended 30 June 2021 were 16% lower than the prior year, impacted by two hurricanes, the arctic winter storm and divestment of the US Base Chemical assets. The average sales basket price (US$/ton) for the financial year was 24% higher compared to the prior year. EBIT for the year of R8,1 billion increased by more than 100% compared to the prior year largely due to the afore-mentioned higher prices, a reduction of impairments and gains from the aforementioned asset divestitures. 6,4 Africa America Eurasia R29,2 bn l8,3 Sasol Integrated Report 2021 NELC12 D:20210915213942+02'00'9/15/2021 12:39:42 AM --------------------------------------------Please delete section indicator NELC12 D:20210915214001+02'00'9/15/2021 12:40:01 AM --------------------------------------------Please delete page number and report name NELC12 D:20210915214028+02'00'9/15/2021 12:40:28 AM --------------------------------------------Please delete symbol and reference sentence 48 Salient features • Sound safety performance with no fatalities or life-altering injuries during the year. • Strong FY21 financial performance with adjusted EBITDA almost 70% higher than previous year. • Last unit at the LCCP declared beneficial operation in November 2020, and units continue to ramp-up. • Significant progress in delivering on our previously announced asset divestiture programme. • Completed organisational redesign as part of Sasol 2.0 transformation programme. • Further developed our GHG reduction roadmap. • Displayed resilience in managing the COVID-19 pandemic and innovation in using our unique chemistry to develop solutions for a better world.

While technology enabled this, the personal relationships that we have with our stakeholders sustained us and ensured that product was produced, supplied and sold to customers all over the world. The pandemic reinforced the value of producing and selling product across the globe as we were able to continue selling despite global supply chain challenges. The breadth of our portfolio allowed us to pivot our products in diverse applications and markets, supporting our robustness and resilience in uncertain times. Looking ahead • Overall sales volumes for the FY22 are expected to be in line with FY21 levels despite the impact of the asset divestitures and lower planned production at Chemicals Africa, largely due to the continued ramp-up of LCCP units, absence of FY21 adverse weather events and improved market demand. • Continued oil price volatility and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may impact volumes and prices during the FY22. • Delivery of benefits associated with Sasol 2.0 transformation programme. • Completion of previously announced asset divestiture programme. • Further development and implementation of our sustainability ambitions.

Our revised sustainability plan aims to reduce emissions across expenditure and manage the pace of execution. Our scenarios indicate that by EBIT increased by 20% to R6,7 billion compared to the prior year. The gas value chain benefitted from higher external gas sales in South Africa, the stronger closing rand/US dollar exchange rate on translation of our Mozambique foreign operations and lower depreciation on various assets classified as held for sale. This was partially offset by a provision of R1,4 billion for the potential retrospective application of the final determination by NERSA of the maximum gas price. Natural gas sales volumes in South Africa were 16% higher than the prior year due to higher demand from resellers and customers as COVID-19 restrictions were eased. Methane rich gas sales volumes however were 5% lower compared to the prior year due to operational issues experienced by key customers. Midstream operations Secunda Operational volumes of 7,6mt for FY21 were 3% higher than the prior year with the benefit of the September 2020 phase shutdown which was replaced by a ‘pitstop’ shutdown in May 2020. However, the increase in volumes was partly offset by some operational challenges. At Natref, together with our partner, we reduced our run rates to respond to lower market demand. Fuels The Fuels segment benefitted from stronger demand as COVID-19 restrictions were eased. Demand for diesel has recovered to above pre-COVID 19 levels, while petrol demand remains between 90 – 95% of pre-COVID-19 levels. Jet fuel demand continues to remain constrained. Liquid fuel sales volumes of 54,2 million barrels were 3% higher than the prior year. We recorded a LBIT of R18,2 billion compared to the prior year of R11,6 billion. The LBIT for the financial year includes an impairment of R24,5 billion relating to our Secunda liquid fuels refinery cash generating unit, resulting mainly from a stronger rand/US dollar exchange rate outlook and higher cost to produce gas in the longer term. Excluding remeasurement items, our profitability increased more than 100% and gross margin increased from 31% to 38% compared to the prior year, mainly due to higher production at Secunda Operations and the benefit of Natref procuring crude oil at much lower prices at the start of the year. ORYX GTL contributed R719 million to EBIT, improving by more than 100% compared the prior year due to a solid operational performance post the extended shutdown during the first half of the financial year. Gaining momentum on asset divestment We made strong progress in concluding our planned divestments. The sale of Sasol’s 16 Air Separation Units in Secunda was completed with Air Liquide taking full operational control of the assets, effective from 24 June 2021. A long-term gas supply agreement (15 years) will ensure the continuous supply of oxygen and other gases to Sasol’s fuels and chemicals production units. We sold of our interest in the Gabon oil producing asset during February 2021 and successfully completed the divestment of our interest in the Canadian shale gas assets on 29 July 2021. The divestment of our 30% equity interest in the Republic of Mozambique Pipeline Investment Company (Pty) Ltd (ROMPCO) is well underway for a consideration value of approximate R4,2 billion. Sasol will retain a 20% equity interest in the pipeline. Looking ahead • Maintain safe and reliable operations. • Deliver Sasol 2.0 to reset the resilience of our profitability. • Deliver our differentiated retail loyalty programme and improve convenience offerings. • Deliver first green hydrogen in 24 months. • Sign power purchase agreements for 600 MW of renewables (jointly with Air Liquide) for delivery before 2025. • Leverage our FT technology, iconic brand, technical talent and innovation muscle to lead the energy transition in South Africa, building new capabilities through partnerships, digitalisation and commercial excellence. • Secure affordable gas supply and implement identified renewable energy projects as well as pursue opportunities in green hydrogen and Sustainable Aviation Fuel. • Increasingly blend in sustainable carbon sources and gas as feedstocks, while exploring offsets and keeping a watchlist of options to reduce our carbon footprint, including hydrogen blending as well as carbon capture, utilisation and storage. • Achieve net zero emissions by 2050. • Maintain flexibility and optionality of choices, allowing us to quickly adapt the trajectory of our reductions and adopt new technologies as they become economically attractive. Safety Our commitment to safety and the reinforcement of our high-severity incident (HSI) programme aimed at preventing fatalities, HSIs and process safety incidents gained momentum. Leadership and teams worked hard to embed our new safety practices, rules and change behaviours. Regretfully, we tragically lost two colleagues who passed away in word-related incidents – one at Natref before year end and the other at Mining after year end. Our recordable case rate (RCR) plateaued at 0,26 from 0,27 in 2020. The fires, explosions and releases severity rate (FER-SR) improved by 2% to 4,1 compared to 4,2. Performance summary The Energy Business delivered a satisfactory performance. The strong integrated value chain benefitted from higher oil prices in the last quarter of the 2021 financial year, and strict cost control and disciplined capital expenditure. However, this performance was hampered by COVID-19, inconsistent coal quality and plant instability. Mining Our productivity of 1 131 tons per continuous miner per shift (t/cm/s) was lower than expected, which necessitated more external coal purchases to meet demand from Secunda Operations (SO). To improve productivity sustainably going forward, we have implemented the Fulco integrated shift system across all Secunda mines, with the last mine rollout completed in June 2021, two months earlier than planned. We expect our productivity to increase and external purchases to decrease as we fully ramp-up the Fulco integrated shift system. EBIT increased by 17% for the year to R3,2 billion compared to the prior year, mainly due to higher sales volumes, higher export sales prices and lower external coal purchases, offset by higher depreciation and an unfavourable stock movement. Our normalised mining unit cost increased by 8% to R376/ton due to higher labour, maintenance and depreciation costs, partially negated by cash conservation measures. Gas In Mozambique, our gas operations were stable despite several operational challenges due to COVID-19. Production volumes of 114,5 bscf were 2% higher than the prior year. Our drilling campaign was suspended due to COVID-19 restrictions and started up on 7 August 2021. Sasol Integrated Report 2021 51 We remain committed to preserving value for our stakeholders, acknowledging working closely with several strategic partners, under the direction of the Board, to develop an accelerated decarbonisation plan that is balanced across People, our South African Operations by 30%# by 2030 using transition gas, renewable and plant efficiency as key levers. We will implement these incrementally such that we optimise capital 2030, we can achieve a ROIC that exceeds weighted average cost of capital by at least two times. Key to this delivery is the successful implementation of Sasol 2.0 transformation programme and the growth of our mobility business through enhancing convenience offerings and targeting higher margin channels. We are taking action to enhance our capabilities to win in this area and supplementing our skills with external, globally experienced teams who have done this before. In the year we progressed work to secure large-scale renewable energy, with plans to have 1200 MW by 2030. We signed an agreement with Air Liquide to jointly procure 900 MW, issuing a request for proposals for the supply of an initial 600 MW of renewable energy by 2023/24. We plan to pursue a further 300 MW before the end of 2022 for delivery by 2026/27. Gas is central to our plans. By securing affordable gas feedstock, we aim to reduce our GHG footprint and supply sustainable lower-carbon products in Southern Africa. As we expect supply from our PPA reserves to start declining from 2025, we are investigating options to optimise our Mozambique upstream assets and secure new gas supplies through importing liquefied natural gas. In 2021, the Board approved FID on the development of the Mozambique Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) licence area. The US$760 million project will supply 546 bcf of gas to the CTT in Mozambique to enable a 450 MW gas power plant; the supply of 30 000 t pa of LPG to the Mozambique Government; production and export of 12 m bbl of oil and 292 bcf of gas to South Africa. We are pursuing opportunities to take advantage of technology breakthroughs to ensure we play a leading role in a green hydrogen economy in South Africa. These include a partnership with Toyota Motors South Africa through which we will develop a proof-of-concept demonstration for a green hydrogen mobility ecosystem. Together, we intend to develop a mobility corridor and expand the demonstration to a pilot project using one of South Africa’s main freight corridors, such as the N3 route between Durban and Johannesburg, for hydrogen-powered heavy-duty long-haul trucks. This partnership aims to build a sustainable end-to-end infrastructure for hydrogen mobility. # Off 2017 base and excluding Natref.
