    Atlas Mara Repurchase of Shares and Total Voting Rights Update



    Atlas Mara Limited ("Atlas Mara" or the "Company"), the sub-Saharan African
    financial services group, today announces that on 27 November 2015, the
    Company repurchased 20,000 shares at a high price of $5.73 and a low price
    of $5.65, all of which were purchased to be held as treasury shares.

    Atlas Mara repurchased shares pursuant to the authority granted by its
    Board of Directors to re-initiate the Company's previously suspended share
    repurchase program. As communicated in its Q3 results announcement on 29
    October 2015, the Company, by way of its nominated brokers, to whom it has
    granted discretion, will seek to acquire up to $10 million of its ordinary
    shares in the market.

    As a result of the repurchase of shares, Atlas Mara's total number of
    ordinary shares in issue is 72,458,524 of which 1,788,559 are now held in
    treasury.

    In accordance with rule 5.6.1 of the Financial Conduct Authority's
    Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTRs"), Atlas Mara hereby notifies the
    market that the total number of voting rights in Atlas Mara is 70,669,965.
    This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
    calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify
    their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Atlas Mara under the
    DTRs.
