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 1,264.41216 South African cents per ordinary share. |
| 5. | BHP Group Limited had a total of 5,081,391,706 ordinary shares in issue at the dividend determination date of 18 August 2026. |
| 6. | The dividend will be paid out of retained earnings. |
