<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B>NEW YORK, March 13, 2023</B> &ndash; Luxor Capital Group, LP (&ldquo;Luxor&rdquo;),
as the manager of funds owning 4.7 million shares of Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated (NYSE: RBA) (TSX: RBA) (&ldquo;RBA&rdquo;
or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), representing approximately 4.2% of the Company&rsquo;s outstanding shares, today responded to a letter
released by David E Ritchie, RBA Co-Founder, Former Chairman and Director, and C Russell Cmolik, Former President, COO and Director, calling
on RBA shareholders to defeat the proposed merger with IAA, Inc. (NYSE: IAA) (the &ldquo;IAA Merger&rdquo;), in connection with the March
14, 2023 special meeting of RBA shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Luxor was gratified to read an unequivocal message from the
individuals who created and built Ritchie Bros. that the IAA Merger must be stopped. Their comments are clear and their motivations unquestionable.
They love the Company they built and believe the IAA Merger will cause permanent harm to Ritchie Bros.&rsquo;s business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Mr. Ritchie and Mr. Cmolik, writing as stewards of Ritchie Bros., have
highlighted several aspects of the irreversible damage that the IAA Merger will cause the Company, including the real prospect of&nbsp;customer
loss, the damage to the corporate culture, and a distraction for management from growing its core business. They are also concerned about
long-term prospects of the auto salvage business. Mr. Ritchie and Mr. Cmolik believe these are concerns that should be shared&nbsp;by
all long-term shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The vote on the merger is very close. Despite the proxy deadline having
passed, shareholders can still revoke their proxies (i.e., cancel their votes) cast in favor of the IAA Merger.&nbsp;We call on all shareholders
who voted in favor of this deal to heed the warnings of Ritchie Bros.&rsquo;s co-founder and former president and stop the IAA Merger,&rdquo;
said Doug Snyder, President of Luxor.</P>
