DESTRA CORPORATION LIMITED TRADING IN DESTRA SHARES AND OPTIONS

destra is proud that nearly 40% of its shares are held by directors, officers and employees, giving them a real stake in the Company with its other shareholders.

It is important, however, that the public and other shareholders retain confidence that destra’s directors, executives and employees act responsibly when dealing in destra shares and options.

PROHIBITION OF INSIDER TRADING

Directors and employees will be aware that the Corporations Act imposes substantial criminal penalties, including imprisonment, for insider trading. The definition of insider trading is very technical, but in essence it prohibits insiders, such as directors and employees, from trading in stock when they possess non-public, price sensitive information relating to the company and its affairs. It also prohibits those insiders from passing on that information to third parties (including other employees, family and friends and others). If the third party uses that information to deal in shares or options, both the third party and the insider passing on the information commit offences under the Corporations Act.

Directors and employees may trade in stocks and options only after information has been disclosed, and sufficient time has elapsed for the market to absorb that information.

GUIDELINES FOR TRADING

To assist directors and employees in their dealings in destra shares and options, destra’s Board of Directors recommends that the following guidelines be observed:

1. No director or employee should deal in destra shares or options during the period:

• preceding the release of its interim results (February);
• preceding the release of its preliminary final results (August);
• during any other period designated by the Board or the Chief Executive Officer as a “black out period”.

2. No director or employee should engage in short term trading in destra shares in any circumstances i.e. within a 30 day period.

3. No director or employee should deal in destra shares and options while in possession of inside information.

4. Subject to the above guidelines, a director or employee may acquire shares and/or options pursuant to:

• a rights issue made to all shareholders;
• a bonus issue made to all shareholders;
• a dividend reinvestment or share “top up” plan made available to all shareholders; and
• the employee share plan.

PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

It is the personal responsibility of each director and employee to decide whether it is proper for him or her to buy or sell destra shares and options in the light of:

• the law prohibiting insider trading;
• the position held within the company and its management structure; and
• these guidelines.

If you have any questions with respect to these guidelines, please contact Richard Wingrove, Chief Financial Officer.
