Articles Of Association

Special Investment Shares are not dividend-focused instruments but are designed to offer investors a clearly defined redemption premium if the company chooses to buy them back. The premium increases each year they are held, up to a maximum of 100%, providing a transparent framework for potential return.

The Special Investment Shares (SIS) are a bespoke class of shares created specifically to reward early supporters of Driscoll Ltd with a strong, measurable return on investment. Unlike ordinary shares, which depend solely on future dividends or valuation growth, these shares include a guaranteed redemption premium — meaning they can be bought back by the company for more than their original purchase price.

For each year that the shares are held, the redemption value increases by 10% of the original purchase price, up to a maximum of 100% (a doubling in value). This gives investors a clear, predictable path to potential returns — while still allowing them to benefit from the overall success and profitability of the company.

It offers investors a balance between security and opportunity: the potential for substantial gains through redemption, combined with the pride of helping to build a forward-thinking, innovation-driven technology company.

With Driscoll Ltd’s expanding portfolio — spanning artificial intelligence, automation, cloud computing, and financial technology — the company is positioned at the intersection of multiple fast-growing markets. By investing through Special Investment Shares, supporters can take part in this journey from an early stage, with the potential for both meaningful impact and compelling financial reward.

Questions

As per the Articles of Association, the company is under no obligation to buy back any of the shares. However the Special Investment Share is designed to be relatively short lived and should the company decide to buy back a quantity of shares, it is bound by the Articles of Association to pay the buy back premium shown in the table above. Until such time as the company decides to buy back the shares, any holder will be a shareholder of the company with the relevant rights assigned to the SIS share class.
