                     THE UNITED ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH AFRICA

            (HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS "THE EMPLOYEE ORGANISATIONS")

1.    PREAMBLE

As part of the Section 189 and Section 189A (of the Labour Relations Act)
processes that were initiated by the company on 28 June 2004, the Commission for
Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) was approached to facilitate
meetings between the parties.

This agreement serves to conclude the CCMA's facilitation process and to record
the parties' agreement regarding the September 2004 rationalisation exercise at
the company. The parties note that this agreement is entered into in exchange
for the company's agreement on severance benefits which is contained in the
retrenchment agreement dated 2 September 2004 which has been concluded between
the parties.

2.    RATIONALE FOR RETRENCHMENT

The parties agree that the retrenchment of the affected employees has become
unavoidable due to the underachievement of the company's financial and
production targets, which has resulted in the company experiencing significant
financial losses during the past 8 (eight) months. The parties acknowledge that
it is not economically sustainable for the company to continue making losses
into the future.

3.    BUSINESS PLAN

The parties acknowledge that, as a closure avoidance measure, the company has
tabled a 6 (six) month business plan dated 1 September 2004.

Although this business plan involves the retrenchment of +/-2,000 (two thousand)
affected employees, it is designed to return the company initially to a
break-even point, then to work towards operating profitably over the next 6
(six) months.

The sustainability thresholds of the company's business plan are as follows:

-     440 (four hundred and forty) kilograms of gold produced per month

-     at a maximum cost of R80,000 (eighty thousand rand) per kilogram

-     with revenue received of at least R82,000 (eighty two thousand) per
      kilogram

-     Working costs in line with budget

The parties acknowledge that these thresholds will only be sustainable if the
company meets its monthly targets in terms of:

-     Recovered grade;

-     Square metres mined;

-     Development metres blasted;

-     Tonnes hoisted; and

-     Kilograms of gold produced.

<PAGE>

The parties acknowledge that a consequence of the company's business plan will
be that certain working areas and infrastructure will be placed on "care and
maintenance" until such time as they can contribute profitably to the company's
performance.

4.    ENABLING ENVIRONMENT

The parties acknowledge that it is critical to the successful implementation of
the business plan to create an operating environment that is conducive to
achieving and/or surpassing the business plan's sustainability thresholds.

In order to secure such an enabling environment, the parties commit themselves
in good faith to support the flawless implementation of the plan. To this
extent, the employee organisations undertake not to disrupt the normal
operations of the company in any way during the implementation of the business
plan.

5.    PRESERVATION OF THE SECTION 189 (1) PROCESS

In support of clause 4 (above), the parties agree to preserve the current
Section 189 process for 6 (six) months, during the implementation of the
business plan.

However, in the event of the company being unable to achieve the sustainability
thresholds contained in the business plan during this period, the current
Section 189 process will continue under the auspices of the CCMA in order to
ensure the survival of the company.

Should the company contemplate the continuance of the Section 189 process, it
will request the CCMA to facilitate at least 2 (two) meetings within 2 (two)
weeks in order to consult with the employee organisations on the reasons for
such continuance. Thereafter, after the 2 (two) week period either party will be
able to exercise their rights in terms of S189A(7).

                                       2

6.    MONITORING COMMITTEE

The parties agree that the Blyvoor Forum will monitor the progress of the
implementation of the Business Plan on a weekly basis (after normal working
hours) for the first 2 (two) months (or until the parties agree otherwise) and
on a monthly basis thereafter.

THIS LOAN AGREEMENT is dated 15 September 2004

BETWEEN

(1)   INVESTEC BANK LIMITED (incorporated in South Africa with registered
      number: 1969/004763/06) whose registered office is at 100 Grayston Drive,
      Sandown, Sandton ("IBL")

(2)   DURBAN ROODEPOORT DEEP LIMITED (incorporated in South Africa with
      registered number: 1895/000926/06) whose registered office is at 45 Empire
      Road, Parktown, Johannesburg ("DRD")

WHEREAS

IBL has agreed to make a loan of ZAR 100,000,000.00 (One Hundred Million Rand)
to DRD subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Loan Agreement.

1.    FACILITY

      1.1   IBL agrees to make available a loan facility (the "Facility") to DRD
            subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Loan Agreement.
            Reference to the `Facility' herein shall be to that part of the
            Facility that is drawn down at any time.

      1.2   The total amount of the Facility is ZAR 100,000,000.00 (One Hundred
            Million Rand) which may be drawn down subject to the terms hereof.

2.    PURPOSE

      The Facility shall be used by DRD for general funding purposes.

3.    CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

      DRD shall not be entitled to draw down any part of the Facility until IBL
      has received as conditions precedent, in each case in the form and
      substance satisfactory to it, the documents, items and evidence specified
      in the Schedule to this Loan Agreement.

4.    DRAWDOWN

      4.1   Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in
            Clause 3, DRD may draw down up to ZAR20,000,000.00 (Twenty Million
            Rand) of the Facility on the day after signature hereof or any time
            thereafter but not later than the third day following signature
            hereof provided that DRD has given to IBL on the Business Day before
            the date of the proposed drawdown, notice of the proposed drawdown,
            such notice to be irrevocable and in a form acceptable to IBL.

      4.2   The balance of the Facility may be drawn down at IBL's discretion.
            Any draw down notice shall be given in the form referred to in
            clause 4.1.

                                       2
<PAGE>

      4.3   IBL may refuse to honour any draw down notice in its sole
            discretion.

5.    REPAYMENT

      5.1   IBL shall be entitled at any time to call for repayment of such
            portion of the Facility as is drawn down at the time, by delivering
            a notice (the "Repayment Notice") to this effect in accordance with
            the terms hereof. The date of delivery of this notice shall be the
            `Recall Date' for the purposes of this Loan Agreement.

      5.2   Upon receipt of the Repayment Notice DRD may elect to repay the
            Facility in cash or by the issue of Shares (as defined below) to IBL
            or DRD may elect to repay the Facility partly in cash and partly by
            the issue of Shares. This election shall be exercised by the
            delivery of a notice (the "Election Notice") to IBL within one
            business day of the Recall Date. A failure to deliver an Election
            Notice shall be deemed by IBL to be an election by DRD to repay the
            Facility in cash.

      5.3   In the case of a repayment of the Facility in cash or any part
            repayment in cash such repayment shall be made together with accrued
            interest thereon within 3 Business Days of the Repayment Notice.

      5.4   The delivery of an Election Notice that the Facility shall be
            redeemed by the issue of Shares or partly by the issue of Shares
            shall be irrevocable.

      5.5   In the case of a repayment by the issue of Shares, the provisions
            relating to interest shall not apply. Where repayment is partly in
            cash and partly by the issue of Shares the provisions relating to
            interest shall apply solely to that part of the Facility repaid in
            cash.

6.    PREPAYMENT

      6.1   DRD may prepay the Facility without premium or penalty in whole or
            in part (but if in part, any prepayment shall be in integral
            multiples of Five Million Rand) and shall be paid solely on the last
            day of any Interest Period, provided that DRD shall have given IBL
            not less than 3 Business Days' prior notice (which shall be
            irrevocable and binding). Such prepayment shall be made together
            with accrued interest on the amount prepaid.

      6.2   DRD may not make any prepayment except in accordance with this
            Clause.

7.    INTEREST PERIODS

      7.1   The period during which the Facility is outstanding will be divided
            into successive periods (each an "Interest Period"). The first
            Interest Period relating to the Facility shall commence on the
            drawdown date and each subsequent Interest Period shall commence on
            the expiry of the preceding Interest Period. Each Interest Period
            will be of a duration of one month provided that:

                                        3
<PAGE>

            7.1.1 if any Interest Period ends on a day which is not a Business
                  Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next
                  Business Day unless that would extend that Interest Period
                  into the next following calendar month, in which event that
                  Interest Period shall be shortened so as to end on the
                  immediately preceding Business Day.

8.    INTEREST

      8.1   Subject to Clause 9 below the rate of interest applicable to the
            Facility during each Interest Period shall be the rate per annum
            determined by the Calculation Agent to be the:

      8.1.1 Three month - JIBAR - Reference Banks plus 300 interest basis
            points.

      8.2   Interest is payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest
            Period and is calculated on the basis of the actual number of days
            elapsed and a 365 day year.

      8.3   Any certificate or determination by IBL as to any rate of interest
            payable in respect of the Facility shall (save for manifest error)
            be prima facie proof of the amount owing.

9.    ADDITIONAL INTEREST

      If DRD fails to pay any sum payable under this Loan Agreement on its due
      date, it will pay to IBL interest on such sum from the date of such
      failure to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgement) at
      3 per cent per annum over the cost of funds to IBL for such period as it
      remains in default. Such interest shall be payable at any time on demand.

10.   FEE

      DRD shall pay to IBL a fee determined to be 5% of the Facility which is
      drawn at any time and from time to time. This Fee shall be payable upon
      draw down of the respective portion of the Facility.

11.   REPAYMENT BY THE ISSUE OF SHARES

      11.1  Any issue of Shares under these terms shall be subject to and in
            compliance with the shareholder approval requirements of the Nasdaq
            Marketplace Rules 4350 (i)(B), C and (D).

      11.2  All Shares to be issued in repayment of the Facility or part of the
            Facility shall become issuable no later than the 60th calendar day
            following the Recall Date. For the purposes hereof, the period from
            the Recall Date to and including the 60th calendar day following the
            Recall Date shall be referred to as the `Redemption Period' and the
            final day of this period shall be referred to as the `Final
            Redemption Day'.

                                        4
<PAGE>

      11.3  IBL may elect to have the Facility redeemed in tranches (each a
            "Redemption Tranche"), subject to each Redemption Tranche
            representing a repayment of at least Five Million Rand.

      11.4  During the Redemption Period IBL shall telephonically notify DRD of
            the terms of a Redemption Tranche and confirm this notification by
            facsimile (the "Redemption Notification"). The date of any such
            telephonic notification shall be a `Redemption Notification Date'.

      11.5  Upon the delivery of a Redemption Notification the number of Shares
            determined in accordance with 11.6 shall be immediately issuable and
            be issued and delivered to IBL within 10 days of the Redemption
            Notification Date.

      11.6  The number of Shares to be issued in respect of any Redemption
            Tranche shall be determined by dividing the Rand Facility Redemption
            Amount by the Rand Purchase Price, where;

            "Rand Facility Redemption Amount" means the amount of the Facility
            being redeemed in any Redemption Tranche as specified in the
            Redemption Notification relating thereto.

            "Rand Purchase Price" means an amount in Rand equal to the simple
            average of the Daily Volume Weighted Average Price of the Shares on
            the Exchange for the 10 Exchange Business Days immediately preceding
            the Redemption Notification Date.

            "Daily Volume Weighted Average Price" means an amount in Rand,
            calculated to the 4th decimal place, determined to be the total
            daily value of all main board trades on the Exchange divided by the
            total daily volume of all main board trades on the Exchange.

      11.7  Any part of the Facility remaining to be repaid on the Final
            Redemption Date shall be deemed to be the subject to a Redemption
            Notification deemed to be delivered on the Final Redemption Day.

12.   FEES AND EXPENSES

      12.1  DRD will pay to IBL on demand all expenses (including legal and
            out-of-pocket expenses and together with Value Added Tax if any
            thereon) on a full indemnity basis incurred by IBL in connection
            with the enforcement of or preservation of any rights under this
            Loan Agreement or otherwise in respect of any monies owing
            hereunder.

      12.2  DRD will pay all stamp, documentary registration and other similar
            duties (including any payable by IBL) in connection with this Loan
            Agreement and/or any document entered into pursuant hereto.

                                        5
<PAGE>

      12.3  Each party shall bear its own expenses in connection with the
            preparation and finalisation of this Loan Agreement.

13.   PAYMENTS

      13.1  DRD will make all payments and deliveries under or in respect of
            this Loan Agreement on the due date for value and immediately
            available funds to IBL at such account as IBL may from time to time
            instruct DRD.

      13.2  If any payment becomes due on a day which is not a Business Day, the
            due date of such payment will be extended to the next Business Day
            unless such business day is in a new calendar month in which case
            such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business
            Day.

      13.3  DRD will make all payments under the Facility without set-off or
            counter-claim and free and clear of any withholding or deduction
            (save as required by law) for any present or future taxes, levies,
            duties or other charges. If DRD is obliged by law to make any such
            withholding or deduction, DRD will pay to IBL in the same manner and
            at the same time additional amounts to ensure that IBL receives a
            net amount equal to the full amount which it would have received if
            no such deduction or withholding had been required. DRD shall
            deliver to IBL on demand a certificate of deduction or other
            evidence satisfactory to IBL that any amount withheld or deducted
            has been paid to the appropriate authority.

      13.4  IBL will maintain an account or accounts evidencing the amounts from
            time to time owing to it under the Facility. Such account or
            accounts shall (save for manifest error) be prima facie evidence of
            the amounts from time to time owing by DRD hereunder.

14.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY DRD

      DRD represents and warrants to IBL on the date of this Loan Agreement and
      on each date that the Facility is available or outstanding (with reference
      to the facts and circumstances then existing), as follows:

      14.1  DRD is duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of
            South Africa and has power to enter into this Loan Agreement;

      14.2  all necessary corporate and other action to authorise the entry into
            and performance of this Loan Agreement has been taken by DRD, except
            for the shareholder approvals that may be required under the Nasdaq
            Market place Rules 4350 (i)(B), (C) and (D) and the regulation of
            any Shares issued pursuant to this Loan Agreement under the US
            Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the
            state securities laws of any US State;

      14.3  this Loan Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding
            obligations in accordance with its terms, has been duly authorised
            and executed by it and does not and will not breach its Memorandum
            and Articles of Association or other

                                       6
<PAGE>

            relevant constitutional documents or any agreement or obligation by
            which it is bound or violate any applicable law;

      14.4  its obligations under this Loan Agreement are its unconditional and
            unsubordinated obligations and rank at least pari passu with all
            other of its unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness; and

      14.5  all approvals, authorisations, consents, licences, permissions and
            registrations which are necessary or advisable to obtain from any
            governmental public or other authority or without limitation any
            third party for the purpose of or relating to the Facility have been
            obtained and all provisions and conditions thereof have been
            complied with.

      14.6  Neither DRD, any of DRD's affiliates nor any persons acting on
            behalf of them have engaged, or will engage in any directed selling
            efforts with respect to the Shares issued under this Loan Agreement
            (it being acknowledged that DRD is not making this representation
            and warranty with respect to actions of IBL or its affiliates).

15.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY IBL IN THE CASE OF ANY REPAYMENT BY THE
      ISSUE OF SHARES

      Terms used in this section 15 have the meaning given to them by Regulation
      S under the Securities Act .

      15.1  IBL represents and warrants to DRD as follows:

            15.1.1 IBL is not a U.S. person and if DRD issues Shares to IBL
                   under this Loan Agreement, IBL will acquire those Shares in
                   an offshore transaction pursuant to Regulation S. If IBL

            herein and before the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
            Period, it may not transfer any portion of the Shares issued under
            this Loan Agreement to any party unless such party enters into an

            restrictions on resale substantially similar to those contained
            herein.

16.   RECORDAL

      Any Adjustment by the Calculation Agent for the purposes of this Loan
      Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the provisions contained
      in the Definitions. In this regard, DRD is referred, inter alia, to the
      definition of Potential Adjustment Event therein which, amongst others,
      includes any event that has a diluting or concentrative effect on the
      theoretical value of the Share. Where a Potential Adjustment Event has
      been declared the Calculation Agent shall make an adjustment to the terms
      of this Loan Agreement to reflect the extent to which the theoretical
      value of the Share is affected by the Potential Adjustment Event. This
      provision is not intended to amend the Definitions but is intended to
      record the effect that a Potential Adjustment Event may have to the terms
      of this Loan Agreement.

17.   UNDERTAKINGS

      DRD will provide to IBL such financial and other information relating to
      DRD as IBL may from time to time request.

      calculated on the basis of market practice at the relevant time as
      certified by IBL) which IBL may from time to time certify to be necessary
      to compensate it for any increased costs or reduction in return resulting
      from compliance of any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or
      regulation or any official directive or request (whether or not having the
      force of law) including without limitation any relating to mandatory
      liquid asset and special deposit requirements.

19.   ILLEGALITY

      22.3  IBL is not obliged to exercise any of its rights under this Clause,

24.   CURRENCY

      If, under any applicable law or regulation or pursuant to a judgment or
      order being made or registered against or the liquidation of DRD or
      without limitation for any other reason, any payment under or in
      connection with this Loan Agreement is made or falls to be satisfied in a
      currency ("the payment currency") other than the currency which such
      payment is expressed to be due under or in connection with this Loan
      Agreement ("the contractual currency") then, to the extent that the amount
      of such payment actually received by IBL, when converted into the
      contractual currency at the applicable rate of exchange, falls short of
      the amount due under or in connection with this Loan Agreement DRD as a

      of exchange including any taxes incurred by reason of any such exchange.
