The exchange rates applicable to the BHP dividend being paid in other

NOTE: Additional information required by the JSE Listing Requirements

 

1.         The divided per ordinary share in local currency in the
table above is stated as a gross dividend.

 

2.         The dividend should be regarded as a 'foreign dividend' for
the purposes of South African income tax and South African dividends tax
(Dividend Tax). Payment of the dividend to shareholders on the BHP Group
Limited South African branch register will be made from the United Kingdom.

 

3.         Dividend Tax will be withheld from the amount of the gross
final dividend paid to shareholders on the BHP Group Limited South African
branch register at the rate of 20 per cent, unless a shareholder qualifies for
an exemption.

 

4.      After the Dividend Tax has been withheld, the net dividend will be
846.03024 South African cents per ordinary share.

 

5.        BHP Group Limited had a total of 5,075,992,235 ordinary shares
in issue at the dividend determination date of 19 August 2025.

 

6.         The dividend will be paid out of retained earnings.

 

7.         For the avoidance of doubt, Dividend Tax, and therefore the
information provided in this announcement, is only of direct application to
shareholders on the BHP Group Limited South African branch register.
