ASX Announcement |6 July 2022

DGR GLOBAL FURTHER ADDS TO STRATEGIC INVESTMENT IN ARMOUR ENERGY

The Directors of DGR Global Ltd (DGR or the 'company') are pleased to announce that DGR has reached agreement with Armour Energy Ltd (ASX Code 'AJQ' or 'Armour') to provide a $4.5M finance facility to Armour Energy Ltd (ASX Code 'AJQ' or 'Armour').

Armour is currently undertaking a strategic overview and executing several initiatives to maximise the value of its substantial asset base against a broader context of surging domestic gas prices. DGR is currently the major shareholder of Armour with a current holding equating to 18.37% of the issued capital of Armour. In addition, DGR holds $2.5M (face value) or 10% of Armour's bonds on issue and has a further $2m invested in MacArthur Oil and Gas (MOG) redeemable exchangeable notes.

The facility being provided by DGR is able to be drawn by Armour over the next three months and the funding is to be provided by way of a placement of redeemable exchangeable notes to be issued by Armour's subsidiary, McArthur Oil and Gas Ltd (MOG), at an issue price per note of $1.00 and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in the Redeemable Exchangeable Note Trust Deed (including those terms as extracted in Annexure A) (MOG Notes). MOG and Armour intend to obtain all necessary approvals and consents to allow for the exchange of the MOG Notes being subscribed for by DGR and the existing MOG Notes already on issue (together with any accrued and unpaid interest) into Armour Convertible Notes on the terms and conditions summarised in Annexure B (Armour Convertible Notes).

Investment Rationale

DGR has long held the view that the East Coast Australian Gas market exhibits compelling long-term fundamentals.

Armour Energy Ltd is well placed over the long term to take advantage of these fundamentals with the company's fully integrated reservoir to grid infrastructure centred on and around the Kincora gas processing facility south of Roma in Queensland's prolific Surat Basin.

Armour has a substantial asset base including the Kincora gas processing facility, a substantial upstream gathering system delivering gas to Kincora and a nameplate processing capacity of up to 30 terajoules (Tjs)of gas per day plus condensate and LPG by products, a substantial resource and series of prospective production leases and authorities to prospect in proximity to the Kincora facility to grow both resource inventory and ultimately production.

Additionally, Armour holds the Newstead gas storage facility which ultimately could provide Armour with the capacity to deliver peak period gas into the East Coast market at its discretion and is an asset of significant strategic value.

For personal use only

Beyond its substantial reservoir to grid infrastructure and assets, Armour has a significant suite of assets with considerable value including its substantial acreage position in the highly prospective McArthur and South Nicholson basins with a collective acreage position of 96,000 km.

Armour also holds significant acreage positions in the Cooper Basin in South Australia and the Otway Basin in Victoria where Armour holds a 51% interest in PEP 169 just 3 kms north of Beach Energy Ltd (ASX Code BPT) exciting 160 PJ gas find which recently flow tested at 61 Million Standard Cubic Feet per day (MMCFD).

DGR Global

DGR will be utilising existing cash reserves to meet its obligations to Armour under this financing facility.

DGR remains with a robust balance sheet with over $140M in liquid listed equity holdings and cash reserves.

DGR remains adequately provisioned post this transaction and as has previously announced its preference to fund the company's ongoing activities from its balance sheet as opposed to diluting shareholder equity via placement of equity.

For further information please refer to Armour Energy Ltd ASX announcement dated 5 July 2022 and Annexures A and B below.

DGR Chairman, Mr Peter Wright commented,

"Armour has a portfolio with exceptional long-term potential, set against a broader context of challenging domestic gas supply. Armour has articulated a compelling strategy (Refer Armour announcement 6 July 2022) for the coming period and beyond which we support and believe will accelerate Armour realising this value for all stakeholders.

DGR is a long term and committed investor in not only Armour but all its long-term investments".
