US Disclosures
DRD"s shares have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act and may not
be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons unless they are
registered under the U.S. Securities Act or an exemption from the registration
requirements of the U.S. Securities Act is available.
The offer described in DRD"s Bidder"s Statement dispatched on 13 April 2004 is
made for the securities of an Australian company. The offer is subject to
disclosure requirements in Australia that are different from those of the United
States. Certain financial statements included in the Bidder"s Statement have
been prepared in accordance with South African, Australian and/or International
Accounting Standards that may not be comparable to the financial statements of
United States companies. It may be difficult for Emperor"s shareholders to
enforce their rights and any claim they may have arising under the U.S. federal
securities laws, since DRD is located in South Africa, and all of its officers
and directors are residents of countries other than the United States.
Emperor"s shareholders may not be able to sue DRD or its officers or directors
in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws. It may be difficult
to compel DRD and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court"s
judgment. You should be aware that DRD may purchase securities otherwise than
under the offer in DRD"s Bidder"s Statement, such as in the open market or
privately negotiated transactions to the extent permitted under Australian law.
