TOTAL VOTING RIGHTS AND SHARE CAPITAL

In conformity with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules provision 5.6.1R, Drax Group plc (the "Company") advises of the following:

That, as at 31 March 2017, the Company's issued share capital consisted of 406,848,843 ordinary shares of 11 ¹⁶/₂₉ pence each with voting rights (the "Voting Rights Figure").

As at 31 March 2017 and at the time of this announcement, no shares are held in treasury by the Company.

The increase in the issued share capital and Voting Rights figure is due to the allotment of 140,888 new shares to satisfy the vesting of share awards under the rules of the Company's Bonus Matching Plan and the allotment of 5,418 new shares to satisfy the vesting of share awards in accordance with the rules of the Company's Sharesave Scheme.

The Voting Rights figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their voting rights interest, or a change to that interest, in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
