DRA Global Intents to Delist from ASX and JSX DRA Global Limited (DRA or Company) announced its intention to delist from both the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX and ASX Delisting) and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE and JSE Delisting) (together, the Delisting's) and undertake an off-market equal access share buy-back (Buy-Back), subject to obtaining the required shareholder approvals. Delisting from the ASX (primary exchange) and the JSE (secondary exchange) and the Buy-Back will be put forward for shareholder approval at an extraordinary general meeting that is proposed to be held on 7 November 2024. The Delisting's are considered by DRA's Board (Board) to be in the best interests of DRA in light of, amongst
others, the low level of trading of DRA's shares on the ASX and the JSE. The Delisting's are conditional on obtaining shareholder approval for the Buy-Back. A key reason for DRA seeking to delist from the ASX and JSE is the relatively low level of trading compared to DRA's current share capital. Further, given the size of DRA and the low level of trading on the ASX and the JSE, the Board believes that the financial, administrative and compliance obligations and costs associated with maintaining an ASX listing and a JSE listing are no longer justified nor is the high level of compliance costs in the best interests of all shareholders. A significant proportion of the Company's management time is currently being dedicated to time-intensive matters relating to the Company's ASX listing and JSE listing. If the Company delists, management's time will be able to be spent on other value- adding matters for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders. DRA has formally applied to the ASX for its removal from the official list of the ASX (Official List) pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 17.11. DRA previously sought in-principle advice from the ASX for its removal from the Official List. ASX advised that it would be likely to agree to DRA's removal, subject to compliance with the following conditions: the request for removal of DRA from the Official List is approved by a special resolution of DRA's shareholders; the notice of meeting seeking shareholder approval for the Company's removal; the removal does not take place any earlier than one month after the date on which the resolution to approve the delisting is passed; DRA must apply for its shares to be suspended from quotation at least 2 business days before its proposed removal date; and DRA releases the full terms of ASX's decision to the market upon making a formal application to ASX to remove DRA from the Official List. The JSE has also provided its approval for the removal of DRA's secondary listing from the securities exchange operated by the JSE pursuant to paragraph 1.14 of the JSE Listings Requirements, subject to compliance with the following conditions: the request for removal of DRA from the list of securities admitted to trading on the JSE is approved by a special resolution of DRA's JSE shareholders2 (that is, at least 75% of shareholders on DRA's South African branch share register who vote on the resolution must vote in favour of the JSE Delisting); the Board confirming that the Buy-Back price is fair, and that the Board has been so advised by an independent expert acceptable to the JSE (with a copy the independent expert's report to be attached to the notice of meeting); and the Buy-Back scale back not being triggered for any shareholders on DRA's South African branch share register. Suspension Date (Date on which shares are suspended from trading on Exchanges): For ASX purposes, from commencement of trading on 2 January 2025; For JSE purposes, from commencement of trading on 31 December 2024. Delisting Record Date (Date for determining Shareholders who will hold unlisted DRA shares): For ASX purposes, 5.00pm (Perth time) 3 January 2025; For JSE purposes, the practical time is market close on the JSE on 3 January 2025. Delisting Date (Date on which delisting from Exchanges is expected to take effect): 6 January 2025 (in respect of the JSE, from commencement of trading). Annonce • Oct 10
