#### DIVIDEND
The Board has declared an interim cash dividend of 20 SA cps for the six months ended 31 December

● the local Dividend Withholding Tax rate is 20% (twenty per cent);

● the gross local dividend amount is 20 SA cents per ordinary share for shareholders exempt from

Dividend Withholding Tax;

● the net local dividend amount is 16 SA cents per ordinary share for shareholders liable to pay Dividend

Withholding Tax;

● DRDGOLD currently has 864,588,711 ordinary shares in issue (which includes 3,896,663 treasury

shares); and

● DRDGOLD's income tax reference number is 9160/013/60/4.

In compliance with the requirements of Strate Proprietary Limited ("

#### Strate
") and the JSE Limited Listings

Requirements, given the Company's primary listing on the exchange operated by the JSE, the salient dates

for payment of the dividend are as follows:

● last date to trade ordinary shares

*cum*

-dividend: Tuesday, 7 March 2023;

● ordinary shares trade

*ex*

-dividend: Wednesday, 8 March 2023;

● record date: Friday, 10 March 2023; and

● payment date: Monday, 13 March 2023.

On payment date, dividends due to holders of certificated securities on the SA share register will either be

electronically transferred to such shareholders' bank accounts or, in the absence of suitable mandates,

dividends will be held in escrow by the Company until suitable mandates are received to electronically

transfer dividends to such shareholders.

Dividends in respect of dematerialised shareholdings will be credited to such shareholders' accounts with

the relevant Central Securities Depository Participant (CSDP) or broker.

To comply with the further requirements of Strate and the JSE, between Wednesday, 8 March 2023 and

Friday, 10 March 2023, both days inclusive, no transfers between the SA share register and any other

share register will be permitted and no ordinary shares pertaining to the SA share register may be

dematerialised or rematerialised.

The currency conversion date for the Australian and United Kingdom share registers will be Monday, 13

March 2023.

The holders of American Depositary Receipts ("

#### ADRs
") should confirm dividend details with the depository

bank.

Assuming an exchange rate of R17.00/$1, the net dividend payable on an ADR is equivalent to 9 United

States cents per ADR for ADR holders liable to pay dividend withholding tax. However, the actual rate of

payment will depend on the exchange rate on the date for currency conversion.
