Dear Fellow Shareholder:

On behalf of Tronox’s entire Board of Directors, I am pleased to invite you to the 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Tronox Holdings plc (“Tronox” or the Company”) in London, England.

From the perspective of myself and the entire Board, our primary focus during 2024 was severalfold:

•Supporting and mentoring Mr. John D. Romano in his first full year as Tronox’s sole CEO following the retirement of Jean-Francois Turgeon as co-CEO at the beginning of 2024.
•Navigating difficult market conditions characterized by subdued demand for our principal products --- titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zircon --- coupled with excess supply caused primarily by Chinese dumping of TiO2 in every jurisdiction other than the United States.
•Continuing to refresh the Board by retaining and onboarding highly qualified board members, with an emphasis on increasing the representation of women on the Board.
•Exercising oversight of the principle risks of a mining and chemical business like Tronox which we regard as the health and safety of our workers and contractors and the communities in which we operate and the long-term sustainability of our processes.

As we communicated last year at this time, it was the Board’s intention to have 30% female representation by the time of the 2025 annual general meeting of shareholders. In the last year we have recruited two highly qualified individuals with the right balance of experiences, skills and perspective. In 2024 we onboarded Lucrèce Foufopoulos-De Ridder, an individual with extensive international executive leadership experience in the chemicals industry, particularly related to technology and innovation coupled with a passion for sustainability. At the February 2025 Board meeting, we appointed another new Board member, Julie Beck, who as the former CFO of Terex Corporation, brings strong finance and accounting skills together with relevant industry experience. You can read more about Lucrèce, Julie and our other director nominees beginning on page 10 of the Proxy Statement.

Shareholders will have an opportunity to express their support for the Board and our executive leadership team at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Tronox Holdings plc, which will be held at 10:00 a.m. BST on May 7, 2025.

We encourage you to read the Proxy Statement which describes the matters to be voted on at the meeting. Shareholders may vote via the Internet, by telephone or by completing and returning a proxy card. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR all the proposals set forth in the accompanying notice of meeting and Proxy Statement.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, we want to thank you for your continued support of Tronox.

Sincerely,

Chair of the Board
