RECOMMENDED CASH ACQUISITION

DX (GROUP) PLC

TRANSIT BIDCO LIMITED

an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of funds advised or managed by H.I.G. Capital LLC or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP

(to be implemented by way of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006)

Summary

· The boards of Transit Bidco Limited ("Bidco") and DX (Group) plc ("DX") are pleased to announce that they have reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition by Bidco, an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of funds advised or managed by H.I.G. Capital LLC ("H.I.G.") or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP, of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of DX (the "Acquisition"). It is intended that the Acquisition be implemented by way of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act.

· Under the terms of the Acquisition, DX Shareholders will be entitled to receive:

for each DX Share 48.5 pence (the "Acquisition Value")

· The Acquisition Value comprises, for each DX Share:

47.5 pence in cash (the "Cash Consideration")

and

a final dividend of 1 penny for DX's financial year ended 1 July 2023,

which is not conditional on the Acquisition becoming effective (the "Permitted Dividend")

· DX announced the Permitted Dividend on 3 October 2023 and DX Shareholders on DX's register of members at the relevant record date will be entitled to receive the Permitted Dividend regardless of whether the Acquisition becomes Effective (and without any reduction in the Cash Consideration if the Acquisition does become Effective). The Permitted Dividend, if approved by DX Shareholders at DX's Annual General Meeting on 23 November 2023, will be paid by DX on 7 December 2023 to DX Shareholders on DX's register of members at 17 November 2023.

· The Acquisition Value values DX's entire issued and to be issued share capital at approximately £314.8 million.

· The Acquisition Value represents a premium of approximately:

· 32.9 per cent. to the Closing Price per DX Share of 36.5 pence on 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period);

· 34.8 per cent. to the volume weighted average Closing Price per DX Share of 36.0 pence for the one-month period ended on 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period);

· 67.0 per cent. to the volume weighted average Closing Price per DX Share of 29.0 pence for the twelve-month period ended on 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period); and

· 30.0 per cent. to the highest Closing Price between 13 November 2015 and 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period) of 37.3 pence per DX Share.

Background to, and reasons for, the Acquisition

· Bidco believes that there is a compelling strategic and financial rationale for undertaking the Acquisition. DX operates in attractive niche markets with supportive secular market trends to continue its trajectory of growth.

· Bidco recognises the strong performance and progress made by DX in recent years, with the operational and financial improvements being a testament to the strong execution capabilities and service delivery of the management team.

· However, Bidco believes that DX's Shares continue to suffer from limited secondary market liquidity, which disincentivises potential new investors to take interest in the stock and prevents existing DX Shareholders from recognising value for their investments.

· Bidco believes that DX can better reach its full potential in a private market setting with a greater focus on longer term value creation, enabled by the acceleration of investment in growth to continue building on the progress that the management team has achieved to date.

· The Acquisition presents H.I.G. with the opportunity to enter new markets. H.I.G. has a strong track record in the Business Services and Logistics sectors deploying capital and expertise into growth-oriented businesses and supporting their management teams in achieving their strategic ambitions. H.I.G. has considerable capital resources and deep industry-specific knowledge, allowing it to support driving the next phase of growth for DX.

Recommendation

· The DX Directors, who have been so advised by Moelis as to the financial terms of the Acquisition, consider the terms of the Acquisition to be fair and reasonable. In providing its advice to the DX Directors, Moelis has taken into account the commercial assessments of the DX Directors.

· Accordingly, the DX Directors intend to recommend unanimously that DX Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting, as the DX Directors who have an interest in DX Shares have irrevocably undertaken to do in respect of their entire beneficial holdings of 8,777,914 DX Shares, in aggregate, representing approximately 1.5 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

Irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent

· Bidco has also received irrevocable undertakings to vote (or, in relation to DX CFDs, to use reasonable endeavours to procure votes) in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn in respect of 177,864,992 DX Shares and 13,250,000 DX CFDs. The total number of DX Shares which are subject to irrevocable undertakings received by Bidco from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn is 177,864,992 DX Shares, representing approximately 29.4 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement). The total number of DX Shares and DX CFDs which are subject to irrevocable undertakings received by Bidco from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn is 191,114,992 DX Shares and DX CFDs, representing approximately 31.6 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

· Bidco has also received letters of intent to vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from Canaccord Genuity Asset Management and Lombard Odier Asset Management (Europe) Limited in respect of 130,102,908 DX Shares, in aggregate, representing approximately 21.5 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

· In aggregate, therefore, Bidco has received irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent to vote (or, in relation to DX CFDs, to use reasonable endeavours to procure votes) in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from the holders of 316,745,814 DX Shares and 13,250,000 DX CFDs. The total number of DX Shares which are subject to irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent received by Bidco from holders of DX Shares is 316,745,814 DX Shares, representing approximately 52.4 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement). The total number of DX Shares and DX CFDs which are subject to irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent received by Bidco from holders of DX Shares and DX CFDs is 329,995,814 DX Shares and DX CFDs, representing approximately 54.6 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

In such circumstances, DX Shareholders shall be entitled to retain any such dividend, distribution or other return of value.

Conditions and timetable

· The Acquisition is conditional on, among other things: (i) the approval of DX Shareholders at the Court Meeting and the passing of the resolutions by DX Shareholders at the General Meeting; and (ii) the sanction of the Scheme by the Court; and (iii) merger control clearance in Ireland. The Acquisition is also subject to the other terms and Conditions set out in Appendix I to this Announcement, and to the full terms and conditions to be set out in the Scheme Document.

· The Acquisition is expected to become Effective in Q1 2024, subject to the satisfaction (or, where applicable, waiver) of the Conditions set out in Appendix I to this Announcement. An expected timetable of principal events will be included in the Scheme Document.

· Further details of the Acquisition will be contained in the Scheme Document which is intended to be published along with notices of the Court Meeting and General Meeting and the Forms of Proxy within 28 days of the date of this Announcement, unless DX and Bidco otherwise agree, and the Panel consents, to a later date.

· Commenting on the Acquisition, Tobias Borkowski, Managing Director of H.I.G., said:

"We are delighted to be announcing this recommended cash acquisition of DX. DX has long established itself as a leading provider of specialist delivery services in the UK, supported by a strong management team, diligent workforce and well-invested infrastructure. We look forward to partnering with the DX management team in accelerating DX's next phase of growth."

· Commenting on the Acquisition, Mark Hammond, Chair of DX, said:

"Since the introduction of its turnaround plan in 2018, DX has demonstrated a strong track record in sales growth, profitability, and margin improvement. This progress has been most recently evidenced in our latest full year results which recorded the highest revenue in our 48-year history. Furthermore, in addition to our strong financial and operational performance, in the last eighteen months, the Board has successfully settled its claim in relation to Tuffnells, resolved its internal corporate governance inquiry, achieved the re-admittance of its shares to trading, and deepened the bench of executive and non-executive talent. Viewed in conjunction with its turnaround and financial momentum, DX is a company reinvigorated and ready for the next phase of growth.

Nonetheless, the Board recognises the challenges that companies of DX's size and shareholder structure face in raising further capital for expansion or acquisitions and the challenges that major shareholders have in crystallising value for their holdings. Furthermore, DX is dependent on UK demand growth across its operating sectors, and thus exposed to potential economic and global investment sentiment headwinds.

The offer from Bidco recognises the value of the platform that has been built, offers shareholders an opportunity to crystallise an attractive value for their holdings and provides DX with an excellent partner for the next stage of its development."

This summary should be read in conjunction with, and is subject to, the full text of this Announcement (including its Appendices).

The Acquisition will be subject to English law and to the applicable requirements of the Code, the Panel, AIM Rules, the London Stock Exchange and the FCA.

The Acquisition will be made solely by the Scheme Document (or, in the event that the Offer is to be implemented by means of an Offer, the Offer Document), which will contain the full terms and conditions of the Acquisition, including details of how to vote in respect of the Scheme. Any voting decision or response in relation to the Acquisition should be made solely on the basis of the Scheme Document. DX Shareholders are advised to read the formal documentation in relation to the Acquisition carefully once it has been published. Each DX Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser regarding the tax consequences of the Acquisition.

This Announcement does not constitute a prospectus or a prospectus equivalent document.

If you are in any doubt about the contents of this Announcement or the action you should take, you are recommended to seek your own independent financial advice immediately from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or from an independent financial adviser duly authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended).

Overseas shareholders

The release, publication or distribution of this Announcement in jurisdictions other than the United Kingdom may be restricted by law and therefore any persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or who are subject to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom (including Restricted Jurisdictions) should inform themselves about, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements. In particular, the ability of persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or who are subject to the laws of another jurisdiction to vote their DX Shares in respect of the Scheme at the Court Meeting, or to execute and deliver Forms of Proxy appointing another to vote at the Court Meeting on their behalf, may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located or to which they are subject. Any failure to comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements of any jurisdiction may constitute a violation of securities laws or regulations in that jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law or regulations, the companies and persons involved in the Acquisition disclaim any responsibility or liability for the violation of such restrictions by any person.

This Announcement has been prepared for the purpose of complying with English law and the Code and the information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this Announcement had been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside England.

The Acquisition will not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into or by use of the mails or any other means or instrumentality (including, without limitation, telephonic or electronic) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of, a Restricted Jurisdiction, and the Acquisition will not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facility or from within a Restricted Jurisdiction. Copies of this Announcement and any formal documentation relating to the Acquisition are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in or into or from any Restricted Jurisdiction or any jurisdiction where to do so would constitute a violation of the laws of such jurisdiction and persons receiving such documents (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise forward, distribute or send them in or into or from any Restricted Jurisdiction. Doing so may render invalid any related purported vote in respect of acceptance of the Acquisition.

Further details in relation to DX Shareholders in overseas jurisdictions will be contained in the Scheme Document.

Additional information for US investors in DX

The Acquisition relates to the shares of an English company and is being made by way of a scheme of arrangement provided for under Part 26 of the Companies Act. The Acquisition, implemented by way of a scheme of arrangement, is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Acquisition and the Scheme will be subject to the disclosure requirements and practices applicable to a scheme of arrangement involving a target company incorporated in England with its securities admitted to trading on AIM, which differ from the disclosure requirements of US tender offer and proxy solicitation rules. If, in the future, Bidco exercises its right to implement the Acquisition by way of an Offer and determines to extend the Offer into the United States, the Acquisition will be made in compliance with applicable US laws and regulations.

The financial information included in this Announcement has been prepared in accordance with the accounting standards applicable in the UK and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.

It may be difficult for US DX Shareholders to enforce their rights and any claim arising out of the US federal securities laws, because DX is located in a non-US country, and some or all of its officers and directors are residents of a non-US country. US DX Shareholders may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of the US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court's judgment.

US DX Shareholders also should be aware that the Acquisition may have tax consequences for US federal income tax purposes and under applicable US state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws, and, that such consequences, if any, are not described herein, US DX Shareholders are urged to consult with legal, tax and financial advisers in connection with making a decision regarding the Acquisition.

Forward-looking statements

This Announcement contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of DX and certain plans and objectives of Bidco and DX

These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. These statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by DX, H.I.G. and/or Bidco in the light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, future developments and other factors they believe appropriate, and therefore are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements often use words such as "anticipate", "target", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", "believe", "hope", "aim", "will", "continue", "may", "would", "could" or "should" or other words of similar meaning or the negative thereof. Forward-looking statements include statements relating to the following: (i) future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, economic performance, synergies, financial conditions, market growth, dividend policy, losses and future prospects; (ii) business and management strategies and the expansion and growth of the operations of the Bidco Group or the DX Group; and (iii) the effects of government regulation on the business of the Bidco Group or the DX Group. There are many factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward looking statements. Among such factors are changes in the global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates and future business combinations or disposals.

These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding the present and future business strategies of such persons and the environment in which each will operate in the future. By their nature, these forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. The factors described in the context of such forward-looking statements in this Announcement may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of any such person, or industry results and developments, to be materially different from any results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct and persons reading this Announcement are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of this Announcement. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to Bidco or DX or any persons acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. Neither of Bidco nor DX undertakes any obligation to update publicly or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.

No profit forecasts, estimates or quantified financial benefits statements

No statement in this Announcement is intended as a profit forecast or estimate for any period or a quantified financial benefits statement and no statement in this Announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings or earnings per ordinary share, for Bidco or DX, respectively for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings or earnings per ordinary share for Bidco or DX, respectively.

Right to switch to an Offer

Bidco reserves the right to elect, with the consent of the Panel, and subject to the terms of the Co-operation Agreement, to implement the Acquisition by way of an Offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of DX as an alternative to the Scheme. In such an event, the Offer will be implemented on the same terms or, if Bidco so decides, on such other terms being no less favourable (subject to appropriate amendments), so far as applicable, as those which would apply to the Scheme and subject to the amendment referred to in Part C of Appendix I to this Announcement.

UK Market Abuse Regulation

This Announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of UK MAR. Market soundings (as defined in UK MAR) were taken in respect of a potential offer with the result that certain persons became aware of inside information (as defined in UK MAR) as permitted by UK MAR. This inside information is set out in this Announcement. Therefore, those persons that received inside information in a market sounding are no longer in possession of such inside information relating to DX and its securities.

Electronic communications

Addresses, electronic addresses and certain other information provided by DX Shareholders, persons with information rights and other relevant persons for the receipt of communications from DX may be provided to Bidco during the Offer Period as required under Section 4 of Appendix 4 of the Code to comply with Rule 2.11(c) of the Code.

Disclosure requirements of the Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the Offer Period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified.

An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) of the Code applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day (as defined in the Code) following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day (as defined in the Code) following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8 of the Code. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) of the Code applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the business day (as defined in the Code) following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3 of the Code.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4 of the Code).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the Offer Period commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure.

RECOMMENDED CASH ACQUISITION

DX (GROUP) PLC

TRANSIT BIDCO LIMITED

an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of funds advised or managed by H.I.G. Capital LLC or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP

(to be implemented by way of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006)

1. Introduction

The boards of Bidco and DX are pleased to announce that they have reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition by Bidco, an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of funds advised or managed by H.I.G. or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP, of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of DX. It is intended that the Acquisition be implemented by way of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act.

2. The Acquisition

Under the terms of the Acquisition, DX Shareholders will be entitled to receive:

for each DX Share 48.5 pence (the "Acquisition Value")

The Acquisition Value comprises, for each DX Share:

47.5 pence in cash (the "Cash Consideration")

and

a final dividend of 1 penny for DX's financial year ended 1 July 2023,

which is not conditional on the Acquisition becoming effective (the "Permitted Dividend")

DX announced the Permitted Dividend on 3 October 2023 and DX Shareholders on DX's register of members at the relevant record date will be entitled to receive the Permitted Dividend regardless of whether the Acquisition becomes Effective (and without any reduction in the Cash Consideration if the Acquisition does become Effective).

The Acquisition Value values DX's issued and to be issued share capital at approximately £314.8 million.

The Acquisition Value represents a premium of approximately:

· 32.9 per cent. to the Closing Price per DX Share of 36.5 pence on 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period);

The DX Shares will be acquired by Bidco (or its nominee) with full title guarantee, fully paid and free from all liens, equitable interests, charges, encumbrances, rights of pre-emption and any other third party rights or interests whatsoever and together with all rights existing at the date of this Announcement or thereafter attaching thereto, including (without limitation) the right to receive and retain, in full, all dividends and other distributions (if any) declared, made or paid or any other return of capital (whether by way of reduction of share capital or share premium account or otherwise) made on or after the date of this Announcement and prior to the Effective Date in respect of the DX Shares.

Save for the Permitted Dividend, if any dividend, distribution or other return of value in respect of the DX Shares is announced, authorised, declared, made or paid in respect of the DX Shares on or after the date of this Announcement and prior to the Effective Date, Bidco reserves the right to reduce the consideration payable for each DX Share by the amount of all or part of any such dividend or other distribution. In such circumstances, DX Shareholders shall be entitled to retain such dividend, distribution or other return of value.

3. Background to, and reasons for, the Acquisition

Bidco believes that there is a compelling strategic and financial rationale for undertaking the Acquisition. Bidco recognises the strong performance and progress made by DX in recent years, and the opportunity to continue its positive trajectory despite the more uncertain economic environment. However, Bidco believes that DX's Shares continue to suffer from limited secondary market liquidity, which disincentivises potential new investors to take interest in the stock and prevents existing DX Shareholders from recognising value for their investments. Bidco believes that DX can better reach its full potential in a private market setting with a greater focus on longer term value creation, enabled by the acceleration of investment in growth to continue building on the progress the management team has achieved to date.

The Acquisition presents H.I.G. with the opportunity to enter new markets. H.I.G. has a strong and complementary track record in the Business Services and Logistics sectors deploying capital and expertise into growth-oriented businesses and supporting their management teams in achieving their strategic ambitions. H.I.G. has considerable capital resources and deep industry-specific knowledge, allowing it to support driving the next phase of growth for DX.

4. Recommendation

The DX Directors, who have been so advised by Moelis as to the financial terms of the Acquisition, consider the terms of the Acquisition to be fair and reasonable. In providing its advice to the DX Directors, Moelis has taken into account the commercial assessments of the DX Directors.

Accordingly, the DX Directors intend to recommend unanimously that DX Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting, as the DX Directors who have an interest in DX Shares have irrevocably undertaken to do in respect of their entire beneficial holdings of 8,777,914 DX Shares, in aggregate, representing approximately 1.5 per cent. of DX's issued share capital as at 15 November 2023, being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement.

5. Background to, and reasons for, the recommendation

DX is a well-established provider of a wide range of delivery services to business and residential addresses across the UK and Ireland. It has developed from its roots as a Document Exchange service to the legal sector, into a UK leader in a wide range of overnight delivery and logistics services. In recent years, DX has successfully executed a highly-successful turnaround and capitalised on favourable market tailwinds, with strong momentum in sales, profitability and margin improvement.

In 2018, DX had revenue of £300m and negative operating profit. The DX Board is proud of the substantial improvement in revenue and profitability that followed, supported by a revised commercial strategy, increased local management responsibility, substantial investment in the business, and an emphasis on driving service levels. In 2023, DX reported revenue of £471m and adjusted operating profit of £31m (before share-based payments charge), as well as a strategic agreement to secure 15 sites from the administrators of one of its key competitors, Tuffnells.

While the DX Directors are highly confident in the long-term prospects of the business as an independent listed company, the DX Board also notes the compelling proposition offered to DX shareholders by the Acquisition against a backdrop of macroeconomic uncertainty. The DX Board did not solicit an offer for DX, but regularly considers all options for driving and improving shareholder value. Bidco's offer of an Acquisition Value of 48.5 pence per share followed the Directors having received and rejected a series of unsolicited proposals, with the first approach made in June 2023. Prior proposals were not at a level that the DX Board felt adequately reflected an appropriate valuation for DX, whereas the DX Directors believe that the terms of the Acquisition are at a level that they can recommend to shareholders to accept.

In evaluating the financial terms of the Acquisition, and determining whether they reflect an appropriate valuation for DX and proposal for DX Shareholders, the DX Board considered a number of factors, namely that:

· Bidco's offer of an Acquisition Value of 48.5 pence per share represents an opportunity for shareholders to crystallise their holdings in cash and in full at a significant premium to both recent and long-term trading levels, against a backdrop of historically limited trading liquidity;

· it represents a premium of 32.9 per cent. to the Closing Price, and 67.0 per cent. to the volume weighted average price in the 12 months to 8 September 2023 (being the last Business Day prior to the date of the commencement of the Offer Period);

· it implies an enterprise value of approximately 8.8 times DX's EBITDA for the 52 weeks to 1 July 2023 on a pre-IFRS 16 basis;

· the certainty of the Acquisition should be weighed against the inherent uncertainty of the delivery of future value that exists in the business, given an unsure and weakening macroeconomic backdrop in the UK;

· after careful consideration together with its advisers, Moelis, the DX Board believes that the Acquisition reflects the strength of the business today and its prospects, whilst delivering immediate value to shareholders; and

· two large shareholders, representing in aggregate approximately 31.6 per cent. of DX's issued share capital, indicated their willingness to provide, and have subsequently provided irrevocable undertakings to vote in favour of the Acquisition at the Court Meeting and the General Meeting (or, if the Acquisition is implemented by way of an Offer, to accept such offer).

The DX Directors also acknowledge the benefits of private ownership, including greater access to capital to pursue new growth opportunities, such as M&A-led growth.

In considering the Acquisition, the DX Directors have taken into account Bidco's stated intentions for the business and its employees. The DX Board believe that the Acquisition represents an opportunity which results in a positive outcome for all its stakeholders, including customers, employees, and shareholders.

Accordingly, after careful consideration of the above factors, the DX Directors are pleased to confirm their intention to recommend unanimously that DX Shareholders vote in favour of the Acquisition at the Court Meeting and the General Meeting (or in the event that the Acquisition is implemented by way of an Offer, accept or procure acceptance of such Offer), as the DX Directors have committed to do in respect of their DX Shares (where applicable).

6. Irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent

Bidco has received irrevocable undertakings to vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from the DX Directors who have an interest in DX Shares, in respect of their entire beneficial holdings, amounting to 8,777,914 DX Shares, in aggregate, representing approximately 1.5 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

Bidco has also received irrevocable undertakings to vote (or, in relation to DX CFDs, to use reasonable endeavours to procure votes) in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn in respect of 177,864,992 DX Shares and 13,250,000 DX CFDs. The total number of DX Shares which are subject to irrevocable undertakings received by Bidco from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn is 177,864,992 DX Shares, representing approximately 29.4 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement). The total number of DX Shares and DX CFDs which are subject to irrevocable undertakings received by Bidco from Gatemore Capital Management LLP and Lloyd Dunn is 191,114,992 DX Shares and DX CFDs, representing approximately 31.6 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

Bidco has also received letters of intent to vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting from Canaccord Genuity Asset Management and Lombard Odier Asset Management (Europe) Limited in respect of 130,102,908 DX Shares, in aggregate, representing approximately 21.5 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

In aggregate, therefore, Bidco has received irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent to vote (or, in relation to DX CFDs, to use reasonable endeavours to procure votes) in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the resolutions relating to the Acquisition at the General Meeting in respect of 316,745,814 DX Shares and 13,250,000 DX CFDs. The total number of DX Shares which are subject to irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent received by Bidco from holders of DX Shares is 316,745,814 DX Shares, representing approximately 52.4 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement). The total number of DX Shares and DX CFDs which are subject to irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent received by Bidco from holders of DX Shares and DX CFDs is 329,995,814 DX Shares and DX CFDs, representing approximately 54.6 per cent. of the issued share capital of DX as at 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement).

Further details of these irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent are set out in Appendix III.

7. Information on Bidco and H.I.G.

Bidco

Bidco is a private limited company incorporated in England which is indirectly wholly-owned by funds advised or managed by H.I.G. or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP. It was formed for the purposes of the Acquisition and has not traded since its date of incorporation, nor has it entered into any obligations other than in connection with the Acquisition.

H.I.G.

H.I.G. is one of the world's largest middle-market private equity investment firms with $59 billion of assets under management. H.I.G. invests in companies across a wide range of industries and geographies and combines operational, strategic and financial expertise in partnership with senior management to create significant value to its portfolio companies. H.I.G. provides the resources and capital to execute both organic growth initiatives, as well as strategic, add on acquisitions. Since its founding in 1993, H.I.G. has completed more than 350 control investments.

8. Information on DX

DX is a well-established provider of a wide range of delivery services to both business and residential addresses across the UK and Ireland. First established in 1975 as a Document Exchange service to the legal sector, DX provides a wide range of overnight delivery services, as well as logistics services.

The DX Group operates through two divisions, DX Freight and DX Express.

· DX Express comprises DX Parcels and DX Exchange and Mail, with the Division specialising in the express delivery, including pre-9am, of parcels and documents.

Current Trading

On 3 October 2023, DX announced its final audited results of the year ended 1 July 2023. In that announcement, it announced the following in relation to the DX Group's outlook and opportunities:

"We are encouraged by the progress the Group has made over the past financial year and, in particular, by the strong profit and margin growth at both DX Freight and DX Express, which has been underpinned by our focus on high levels of customer service.

The agreement to take over 15 former Tuffnells depots and the new relationships we have established with former customers of Tuffnells since it entered into administration is a major development for the Group. The process of optimising the depot network and absorbing these new depots is well under way, with six sites now reopened.

We expect to make further progress in the current financial year. This will be supported by our disciplined allocation of capital, which is prioritising ongoing investment in the business to support growth, including our strategic investment in the new regional hub at Nottingham.

The business has secured strong levels of new business in the first quarter of the current financial year and has a good pipeline of opportunities. It is also in a strong financial position, with healthy levels of net cash and good cash flows. While we are conscious of the current economic headwinds, the Board remains encouraged about growth prospects for the Group in the current financial year and beyond."

On 6 November 2023, DX announced that it had reopened 14 of the 15 former Tuffnells depots that DX took over from the administrator of Tuffnells in late June 2023.

9. Financing

Bidco intends to finance the Cash Consideration payable to DX Shareholders pursuant to the Acquisition from a combination of: (a) indirect capital contributions to Bidco by funds advised or managed by H.I.G. or its affiliates, as advised or subadvised by H.I.G. European Capital Partners LLP (in connection with which an equity commitment letter has been entered into with Bidco); and (b) debt to be provided by Nomura International PLC, PGIM Senior Loan Opportunities (Levered) II, L.P. and PGIM Senior Loan Opportunities (Unlevered) II, L.P as Interim Lenders pursuant to the Interim Facilities Agreement.

Deutsche Numis, as financial adviser to Bidco, is satisfied that sufficient resources are available to Bidco to enable it to satisfy in full the Cash Consideration payable to DX Shareholders under the terms of the Acquisition.

Further information on the financing of the Acquisition will be set out in the Scheme Document.

10. Management, employees, pensions, research and development, locations

Bidco's strategic plans for DX

As set out in Section 3 (Background to, and reasons for, the Acquisition), Bidco believes that the Acquisition has compelling strategic and financial rationale.

In line with market practice for a UK public takeover, Bidco completed a short period of confirmatory due diligence on DX prior to the date of this Announcement. However, Bidco has not yet had access to sufficiently detailed operational information to formulate a detailed strategy for DX. As is customary for new H.I.G. acquisitions, H.I.G. intends to review DX's business and operations following the Scheme becoming Effective. Bidco is supportive of DX's strategy and believes there are further initiatives that would help accelerate its existing strategy and which it intends to confirm during the review, including: (i) sourcing and executing financially and strategically accretive incremental M&A opportunities; (ii) continued operational and financial improvements; and (iii) continued investment in the management and employee team.

Bidco expects that the review will be completed within approximately six months from the Effective Date.

Employees, management, existing rights and pensions

Bidco attaches great importance and value to the skills, experience and commitment of the existing management and employees of DX and believes that they will be a key factor in maximising the success and growth of the business going forward. Bidco has no intention to make any changes to the conditions of employment or the balance of the skills and functions of DX's employees or management.

Bidco confirms that, following the completion of the Acquisition, the existing contractual and statutory employment rights, including in relation to pensions, of all management and employees of the DX Group will be safeguarded in accordance with applicable law.

Bidco reiterates its commitment to DX's employees. Whilst Bidco's post-completion strategic review will seek to formulate an optimal strategy for DX within six months, Bidco does not expect the outcome of the review to result in any material reductions to DX's headcount. Any headcount reductions are expected to arise for the most part as a result of DX ceasing to be admitted to trading on AIM and will be carried out in accordance with applicable law.

It is expected that, on the Effective Date, each non-executive DX Director will resign with immediate effect.

Following completion of the Acquisition, Bidco does not intend to make any changes with regard to the agreed employer contributions into DX's existing defined contribution pension scheme(s) or other pension schemes. The DX Group does not participate in any defined benefit pension scheme.

Bidco has not entered into, and has not had discussions on proposals to enter into, any form of incentivisation or any other arrangements with members of DX's management. It is the intention to put in place appropriate arrangements for management of DX following completion of the Acquisition.

Headquarters, locations, research and development and fixed assets

Bidco does not intend to change the location of DX's headquarters or places of business or to redeploy the fixed assets of DX.

DX has no research and development functions, and Bidco has no plans in this regard.

Trading facilities

Prior to the Scheme becoming Effective, it is intended that applications will be made to the London Stock Exchange to cancel trading in the DX Shares on AIM, with effect from or shortly following the Effective Date and to re-register DX as a private company.

No statements in this Section 10 (Management, employees, pensions, research and development, locations) constitute "post-offer undertakings" for the purposes of Rule 19.5 of the Code.

11. DX Share Schemes

Participants in the DX Share Schemes will be contacted regarding the effect of the Acquisition on their rights under the DX Share Schemes, and appropriate proposals will be made to such participants in accordance with Rule 15 of the Code. Further details of such proposals will be set out in the Scheme Document and in separate letters to be sent to the participants in the DX Share Schemes in due course.

12. Acquisition-related arrangements

Confidentiality Agreement

DX and H.I.G. entered into a confidentiality agreement on 14 September 2023 (the "Confidentiality Agreement"), pursuant to which H.I.G. has undertaken to keep confidential information relating to DX and not to disclose it to third parties (with certain exceptions) unless required by law or regulation or permitted pursuant to limited carve-outs to the obligations of confidentiality. The Confidentiality Agreement also includes customary standstill and non-solicitation obligations applicable to H.I.G.

The confidentiality obligations will remain in force until the Scheme becomes Effective or, in the event the Scheme does not become Effective, until the date falling eighteen months from the date of the Confidentiality Agreement.

Co-operation Agreement

Pursuant to a co-operation agreement dated 16 November 2023 (the "Co-operation Agreement"): (a) Bidco and DX have agreed to co-operate to assist with the satisfaction of certain regulatory conditions; (b) Bidco has agreed to provide DX with certain information for the purposes of the Scheme Document and to otherwise assist with the preparation of the Scheme Document; (c) Bidco and DX have agreed certain arrangements in respect of the DX Share Schemes; and (d) the parties have agreed to certain provisions if the Acquisition should switch to an Offer.

The Co-operation Agreement will terminate, amongst other things, if: (a) agreed in writing between Bidco and DX; (b) prior to the Long Stop Date, any Condition becomes incapable of satisfaction; (c) the DX Directors withdraw their recommendation of the Acquisition or if the DX Directors recommend a competing proposal by a third party; (d) the Acquisition is withdrawn or lapses; or (e) the Scheme does not become Effective by the Long Stop Date.

13. Structure of the Acquisition

Scheme

It is intended that the Acquisition will be implemented by way of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement between DX and the DX Shareholders under Part 26 of the Companies Act (although Bidco reserves the right to implement the Acquisition by means of an Offer, subject to the consent of the Panel and the terms of the Co-operation Agreement).

The purpose of the Scheme is to provide for Bidco (or its nominee) to become the holder of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of DX. Pursuant to the Scheme, the DX Shares will be transferred to Bidco in consideration for which the DX Shareholders who are on DX's register of members at the Scheme Record Time will receive the Cash Consideration on the basis set out in Section 2 (The Acquisition) of this Announcement.

Approval by Court Meeting and General Meeting

To become Effective, the Scheme requires, among other things:

(a) satisfaction (or, where applicable, waiver) of the Conditions including the receipt of clearances or relevant waiting periods having expired as applicable under the merger control regime in Ireland;

(b) approval by a majority in number of the Scheme Shareholders who are present and vote, either in person or by proxy, at the Court Meeting (and at any separate class meeting which may be required by the Court) and who represent not less than 75 per cent. in value of the DX Shares voted by those Scheme Shareholders;

(c) approval by the requisite majority(ies) of the votes cast, either in person or by proxy, of the resolutions required to approve and implement the Scheme at the General Meeting; and

(d) sanction of the Scheme by the Court and, following such sanction, the delivery of a copy of the Court Order to the Registrar of Companies.

Application to Court to sanction the Scheme

Once the approvals of the DX Shareholders have been obtained at the Court Meeting and the General Meeting, and the other Conditions have been satisfied or (where applicable) waived, the Scheme must be sanctioned by the Court at the Court Hearing.

The Scheme will become effective in accordance with its terms on delivery of a copy of the Court Order to the Registrar of Companies. Upon the Scheme becoming Effective, it will be binding on all DX Shareholders, irrespective of whether or not they attended or voted at the Court Meeting or General Meeting, or whether they voted in favour of or against the Scheme.

Full details of the Scheme to be set out in the Scheme Document

The Scheme Document will contain further information about the Acquisition and the notices of the Court Meeting and General Meeting, together with the associated Forms of Proxy. Further details of the Scheme will be set out in the Scheme Document, including the expected timetable and the action to be taken by DX Shareholders.

The Scheme will be governed by English law. The Scheme will be subject to the applicable requirements of the Code, the Panel, the London Stock Exchange, the FCA and the AIM Rules.

It is expected that the Scheme Document, together with the associated Forms of Proxy will be published and sent to DX Shareholders and, for information only, to participants in the DX Share Schemes within 28 days of this Announcement, unless Bidco and DX otherwise agree, and the Panel consents, to a later date.

At this stage, subject to the approval and availability of the Court (which is subject to change), and subject to the satisfaction (or, where applicable, waiver) of the Conditions, Bidco expects the Acquisition will become Effective in Q1 2024.

Subject to certain restrictions relating to persons resident in Restricted Jurisdictions, the Scheme Document will also be made available on Bidco's website at https://delta-offer.com/ and DX's website at investors.dxdelivery.com.

Conditions to the Acquisition

The Acquisition will be subject to the Conditions and further terms set out in full in Appendix I to this Announcement and to be set out in the Scheme Document.

Amongst others, the Conditions include the receipt of clearances or relevant waiting periods having expired as applicable under the merger control regime in Ireland.

The Conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 of Appendix I to this Announcement provide that the Scheme will lapse, and the Acquisition shall not proceed (unless the Panel otherwise consents) if:

(a) it does not become Effective by 11.59 p.m. on the Long Stop Date (31 May 2024);

(b) the Court Meeting is not held on or before the 22nd day after the expected date of the Court Meeting to be set out in the Scheme Document in due course (or such later date as may be agreed between Bidco and DX and the Court may allow);

(c) the General Meeting is not held on or before the 22nd day after the expected date of the General Meeting to be set out in the Scheme Document in due course (or such later date as may be agreed between Bidco and DX and the Court may allow); or

(d) the Scheme is not sanctioned on or before the 22nd day after the expected date of the Court Hearing to be set out in the Scheme Document in due course (or such later date as may be agreed between Bidco and DX and the Court may allow) and a copy of the Court Order is not delivered to the Registrar of Companies,

and such deadlines are not waived by Bidco or otherwise extended by agreement between Bidco, DX, the Panel and the Court.

Right to switch to an Offer

14. De-listing, cancellation of trading and re-registration

Prior to the Scheme becoming Effective, a request will be made by DX to the London Stock Exchange to cancel trading in DX Shares on AIM to take effect on, or shortly after, the Effective Date.

On the Effective Date, share certificates in respect of DX Shares will cease to be valid (and should be destroyed) and entitlements to DX Shares held within the CREST system will be cancelled.

As soon as practicable after the Effective Date and after the cancellation of the admission to trading in DX Shares on AIM, it is intended that DX will be re-registered as a private limited company under the relevant provisions of the Companies Act.

15. Disclosure of interests in DX

As at the close of business on 15 November 2023 (being the last practicable date prior to this Announcement), save for the Irrevocable Undertakings referred to in Section 6 (Irrevocable undertakings and letters of intent), none of Bidco or any of its directors or, so far as Bidco is aware, any person acting, or deemed to be acting, in concert with Bidco had:

· any interest in, or right to subscribe for, relevant securities of DX;

· any short position in (whether conditional or absolute and whether in the money or otherwise), including any short position under a derivative, any agreement to sell or any delivery obligation or right to require another person to purchase or take delivery of, relevant securities of DX;

· procured an irrevocable commitment or letter of intent to accept the terms of the Acquisition in respect of relevant securities of DX; or

· borrowed or lent, or entered into any financial collateral arrangements or dealing arrangements in respect of, any relevant securities of DX.

Furthermore, no indemnity or dealing arrangement (of the kind referred to in Note 11 of the definition of "acting in concert" in the Code) exists between Bidco or DX or any person acting in concert with Bidco or DX in relation to DX Shares.

16. General

The Acquisition will be subject to the Conditions and other terms set out in Appendix I to this Announcement and to be set out in the Scheme Document.
