DP Eurasia N.V.

("DP Eurasia" or the "Company")

Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting

DP Eurasia (DPEU.L), the master franchisee of the Domino's Pizza brand in Turkey, Russia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, announces that DP Eurasia will hold an Extraordinary General Meeting (the "EGM") on 3 February 2021, commencing at 14:00 pm (CET).

The business of the EGM will be to consider and, if thought fit, approve certain resolutions including: the appointment of Mr. Neil Harper as non-executive director replacing Mr. Izzet Talu who stepped down early October 2020; the approval of certain changes to DP Eurasia's Long Term Incentive Scheme (the "LTIP") to accommodate certain difficulties for designated employees that have arisen due to the travelling restrictions that are part of local COVID-19 measures; and technical changes to the DP Eurasia's articles of association (the "Articles") in order to facilitate the transfer of its shares to Nederlands Centraal Instituut voor Giraal Effectenverkeer B.V., the central securities depository ("CSD") trading as "Euroclear Nederland". This latter transfer reflects the end of the UK's transition period for leaving the EU on 31 December 2020 and that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited will no longer be recognised as an EU CSD and hence can longer provide central maintenance services in respect of the shares of the Company. Following the transfer and the execution of the deed of amendment of the Articles, the depositary interests of DP Eurasia will continue to be settled via the EUI CREST system.

As part of the COVID-19 measures taken by the Dutch government, the Act on temporary provisions in the field of expertise of the Ministry of Justice and Security in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak came into force on 24 April 2020 (the "Emergency Act"). In accordance with the provisions of the Emergency Act and to protect the health and safety of all our employees and our stakeholders, the EGM (a) can only be accessed by electronic means of communication, (b) shareholders and other persons entitled to attend the EGM will not have physical access and (c) voting can only take place by CREST or by appointing a proxy prior to the EGM.

The notice of the EGM is available on the Investor Relations section of the Group's website at www.dpeurasia.com and copies of the documents have also been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .
