DRDGOLD SUSPENDS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO BLYVOOR

DRDGOLD shareholders are advised that the board of directors of DRDGOLD (“DRDGOLD
Board”) has decided to suspend financial assistance to DRDGOLD’s 74%-owned subsidiary,
Blyvooruitzicht Gold Mining Company Limited (“Blyvoor”).

The decision follows the promulgation of the new Companies Act, No.71 of 2008, as amended
(“the Act”) that requires directors of parent companies to seek the consent of the parent company
shareholders and then to consider the effects on the solvency and liquidity of the parent company as
conditions precedent to the provision of financial assistance to subsidiaries.

Blyvoor’s production has been trending down as a result of a drop in grade, public holiday
interruptions and seismicity-related work stoppages, while costs have increased due mainly to
higher electricity charges, and particularly power utility Eskom’s winter tariff which adds R11
million a month to overhead costs.

Blyvoor requires an estimated R80 million in financial assistance through to December 2011.
DRDGOLD has maintained an internal revolving credit facility for Blyvoor since it came out of
judicial management in April 2010, but this facility is now fully drawn down.

The board of directors of Blyvoor (“Blyvoor Board”) has, in response to the DRDGOLD Board’s
decision, resolved to begin business rescue proceedings for Blyvoor in terms of Chapter 6 of the
Act. The business rescue process provided for in Chapter 6 of the Act replaces the judicial
management process in the previous Companies Act, No. 61 of 1973, as amended.

The DRDGOLD Board supports the decision of the Blyvoor Board, and expressed the view that the
business rescue proceedings are an improvement on judicial management in a number of key
respects. Most notable is the fact that the business rescue practitioner is a professional appointed by
the distressed company from a pool of certified rescue practitioners, whose function it is to rescue

the business. Judicial managers, by contrast, were appointed by the Master of the High Court from a
pool of people whose main business involved the liquidation of companies.

The Act also provides clear guidelines on the business rescue process, which is designed to run for
a pre-determined three-month period, unless extended by a court application. During this time, the
rescue practitioner must formulate and implement a rescue plan with the co-operation of the
distressed company’s board of directors. Blyvoor would enjoy a moratorium against civil claims
while under rescue proceedings.

Blyvoor’s Board will appoint the rescue practitioner as soon as it receives a list from the
Commissioner of Companies of accredited practitioners.

Commenting on DRDGOLD’s previously-announced intention to dispose in whole or in part of its
74% interest in Blyvoor, Chief Executive Officer Niël Pretorius said that discussions are ongoing
with three parties, and that business rescue proceedings will not interfere with these.

“In fact the business rescue process will preserve the asset while it seeks a solution for its cash flow
issues. It will also provide Blyvoor with an opportunity to make submissions to The Industrial
Development Corporation for development capital, canvass Eskom to reconsider cancellation or
deferral of winter tariffs, and continue negotiations with neighbouring mines on the development of
shared opportunities,” Pretorius said.
