SALE OF DRA SETTLEMENT SHARES

DRA Global Limited (ASX / JSE: DRA) (‘DRA’ or ‘the Company’) advises that it has entered into a binding unconditional 
agreement to place the residual holding of 4,648,606 settlement (treasury) shares for approximately R92.97 million at 
a price of R20 per share.

The settlement shares have been purchased by Apex Partners (Apex), an investment holding company with interests in 
diversified industrials, which accordingly becomes a 8.54% shareholder in DRA. Apex’s existing portfolio comprises 
businesses that distribute equipment and industrial products, provide engineering solutions, and offer various types 
of critical services and support functions in the mining, energy and infrastructure sectors.

The investment by Apex (through purchase of the settlement shares) demonstrates its confidence in the Company, its management, 
and the revised strategy of the business following its recent rationalisation.

Under the settlement shares arrangements, the sale of the settlement shares results in an inflow of funds to the DRA Group, 
which will be used to fund working capital and broader business optimisation purposes, as well as simplifying the Company’s 
capital structure. The disposal of the settlement shares does not result in any change to the Company’s total shares on issue 
(54,410,498). A summary of the establishment and terms of the arrangements governing the settlement shares is available in 
section 9.5.11 of the Company’s IPO Prospectus, which was released to the ASX on 7 July 2021.

The Company’s corporate adviser for the settlement shares transaction was Rand Merchant Bank.

This announcement was approved for release by the Board of Directors of DRA Global Limited.
