PROSPECTUS 3 Chairman’s Letter

ORPHEUS ENERGY LIMITED ACN 121 257 412 Level 5, 44 Miller St North Sydney NSW 2060

Dear Investor,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to offer you this opportunity to invest in Orpheus Energy Limited (Orpheus), a company whose focus is on coal production, exploration and development of coal deposits into production in Australia and Indonesia.

Orpheus Energy Group Pty Ltd (OPL), an entity which will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Orpheus following completion of the offer, is already pre stripping overburden to expose coal at its B26 project for a trial mining program supporting its feasibility study.

In this exciting growth phase, Orpheus is raising capital to fund the development and acquisition of its project portfolio, namely: the Indonesian B26 Project (B26), Hodgson Vale Coal Project in Queensland, the Ashford Limestone Project and the Wingen Bentonite Project in New South Wales. Specifically the funds will be used to:

p Drive aggressive project development to achieve early production at the B26 Coal Project in Kalimantan;

p Conduct resource assessments and project evaluation on the Hodgson Vale Coal Project;

p Proceed to develop the Ashford Lime deposit and potentially produce high value products;

p Proceed with the joint venture to drill and develop a trial mine for bentonite clay at Wingen.

Results from an initial drilling program conducted by Orpheus’s local Indonesian partner at B26 were impressive. Drilling at Block 2 has identified a JORC resource of approximately 1.13 Mt of thermal coal. Further, a coal exploration target of 1.3 Mt to 2 Mt is identified at Block 2 and trial mining has commenced.♦ Orpheus now plans to achieve trial production of coal as part of its feasibility study to construct a coal mine at Block 2.♦

Drilling is underway at Block 6 with a coal exploration target of 1.5 Mt to 2.5 Mt.♦

Going forward, Orpheus will utilise the strategic alliance framework with its local Indonesian partner to develop further coal projects in Indonesia, including in Kintap.

Orpheus’s focus on coal provides an exciting basis for future growth.

I recommend that you consider our Prospectus and I look forward to welcoming you as a shareholder.

Yours sincerely

Mr Wayne Mitchell Chairman & CEO

Indonesian Coal Industry lower calorific value. Industry experts predict that much of Indonesia is the second largest thermal exporter of coal in the coal industry’s growth will be from sub bituminous coal. the world producing 198 million tonnes per annum in 2008 The coal at B26 is of export quality and bituminous in rank. which is forecast to rise. The major coal producing areas of Indonesia are in Kalimantan and Sumatra which are less Indonesia Coal Quality based on Specific Energy populated than Java. The coal industry in Indonesia has experienced high growth and is an important contributor (kcal/kg) to the Indonesian economy. Pricewaterhouse Coopers has reported that economic returns from coal in Indonesia were above the global sector average. In addition, it is encourag- ing that a new Indonesian mining law has replaced the 1967 mining law replacing the contract of work and kuasa pertambangan (mining concession) system with a more foreign investor friendly IUP system. The essence of the IUP system, which applies to both coal and minerals, is that it treats both local and foreign investors equally. Very High Quality (>7100 kcal/kg) – 1% Kalimantan is Orpheus’s initial focus which is part of Borneo, the third largest island in the world. Kalimantan is divided High Quality (6100–7100 kcal/kg) – 13% into the Indonesian provinces of East, South, West and Medium Quality (5100–6100 kcal/kg) – 62% Central Kalimantan.

Ashford Limestone Project Wingen Bentonite Project Orpheus is acquiring from Coalworks the Ashford Limestone Deposit (EL 6511 (NSW).) The Ashford Limestone Project is stated to have an exploration target of between 20 and 40 million tonnes to a depth of 20 metres of high quality calcium carbonate which is an estimate based on two reports by Associate Professor Peter Flood of the University of New England (Ref GS 1992/203).♦ Licence holder, Coalworks previously commissioned international mining consultants, SRK Consulting in 2006 regarding whether a market exists for lime products who advised that Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) and other lime products would command a ready market.

Orpheus plans technical studies aimed at producing a mineral process flow sheet and progressing the studies to feasibility stage upon establishing a limestone resource with special emphasis on the market for GCC and other value added limestone products. In the south of Orpheus’s EL area previous work by another company Kallengur Lime Pty Ltd in 1989 suggests the limestone could also be used for decorative aggregate, glass manufacture and whiting manufacture. The potential market strategies for high value lime and general discussion of the lime market appears below.

Limestone Product Markets The Ashford Limestone deposit is a high purity limestone with results of up to 56%CaO (ie 99.9% CaCO3) and accordingly has the potential to produce the highly sought industrial filler, GCC. The strong market for GCC is demonstrated by this extract from Roskill: Wingen Bentonite Project Location Map “The market for ground calcium carbonate (GCC) expanded from around 56Mt in 2004 to almost 72Mt OPL has an option to establish a joint venture with in 2007, an average annual growth rate of nearly 9%.

PROSPECTUS 55 SECTION 7 Independent Geologist’s Report – Australia

23 March 2011

The Directors Orpheus Energy Limited Level 5, 44 Miller Street North Sydney NSW 2060

Dear Sirs

Independent Technical (Geologist’s) Report

This Independent Geologists Report has been prepared by Minarco-MineConsult (‘MMC’) at the request of the directors of Orpheus Energy Limited referred as (‘the Company’ or ‘Orpheus’). for inclusion in a Prospectus to be released in April 2011 for the issue of shares in the Company upon listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’).

The report, in the form of an independent technical assessment, sets out MMC’s independent review of the geology, mineralisation and resources within three exploration tenements within Australia at Hodgson Vale in Queensland and Ashford and Wingen in New South Wales, that are to be divested by Coalworks Limited (‘Coalworks’) to Orpheus for the consideration of 25 million shares and 12.5 million options in Orpheus Energy.

MMC is part of Runge Limited, a global mining and software consulting group. Specialists from within Runge have contributed to this report and have the appropriate experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposits under consideration to qualify as Competent Persons as defined in the 2004 edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.

MMC has conducted its technical review in recognition of the requirements of Code for the Technical Assessment and Valuation of Mineral and Petroleum Assets and Securities for Independent Expert Reports (the Valmin Code, 2005).

This Independent Technical (Geologist’s) Report has been prepared in accordance with the relevant requirements of the listing rules of the ASX and the regulatory guidelines RG111 and RG112 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (‘ASIC’) in relation to the preparation of independent expert reports.

MMC has not been requested to provide an independent valuation nor has it been asked to provide an opinion on the fairness or reasonableness of the offer. The experts whose signatories are attached to this report do not hold an AFS licence and the opinions expressed in this report are solely of a technical nature. MMC has been paid, and has agreed to be paid, professional fees, by the Company for its preparation of this Report. None of MMC or its directors, staff or specialists who contributed to this report has any interest or entitlement, direct or indirect, in the Company, the relevant Assets; or the outcome of this report or the results of the stock exchange listing.

56 INDEPENDENT GEOLOGIST’S REPORT – AUSTRALIA Figure 1 Location of Relevant Exploration Areas

PROSPECTUS 57 Coalworks holds a 100% interest in coal exploration tenement EPC 1145 at Hodgson Vale in the Clarence-Moreton Basin of Queensland and a 100% interest in a limestone prospect EL 6511 at Ashford in the New England district of New South Wales. A third exploration area EL 7142 at Wingen in the Upper Hunter Valley of New South Wales containing bentonite targets is to be obtained by the Company in assocoiation with Plasminex Pty Ltd a company associated with the share - holders of Coalworks. All exploration areas have been explored to varying stages and the occurrence of target minerals identified although no resources have yet been defined. The location of these exploration areas is shown on Figure 1.

In general MMC has found that:

p Exploration to date has not been sufficient to define resources for the deposits, however exploration targets have been identified within each area. The Company has in place suitable exploration programmes to confirm the likelihood of resources.

p The Hodgson Vale coal exploration permit (EPC 1145) covers an area of 5,100 ha south of Toowoomba, Queensland. This EPC was formerly part of a larger exploration permit held by Millmerran Coal Pty Ltd. Exploration to date has concentrated in the northern area where coal horizon targets up to 22 m have been identified although these horizons are splintered by numerous stony bands. Drilling by Coalworks shows the coal horizons to be variable in thickness but there is a central area showing combined coal sections up to 16 m that will be the subject of further in fill drilling to confirm the coal targets.

p A coal target of 20–38 million tonnes appears reasonable for open cut mining potential within the northern area of the Hodgson Vale deposit.

p The EPC 1145 exploration area is covered by a Tertiary basalt layer of varying thickness tending to be shallower in the north where the exploration has been concentrated and thicker to the south which has seen no exploration interest to date due to the emphasis on potential open cut mining areas. The Company will further explore the target area but will also drill a number of speculative holes in the south to test the presence of deeper coal. Earlier exploration campaigns by others over a wider area external to EPC 1145 have inferred the potential for underground mining targets.

p The coal, with stone bands excluded, has an ash of 37% (adb) and a specific energy of 19 MJ/kg. Beneficiation would be required for export markets. Alternate uses are to be assessed.

p The exploration targets over the EPC 1145 will also be investigated for underground coal gasification (UCG) potential. Indications are that depth and seam thickness, although a highly splintered seam, may satisfy the use of this technology. Permission has been granted by the Queensland Department of Mines and Energy to investigate the application of this coal utilisation. It has been demonstrated that the coal within the Walloon Coal Measures can support UCG and coal to liquids technology.

p The Ashford limestone tenement (EL 6511) covering an area of 1,149 ha contains an identified ribbon of outcropping limestone running north-south through the licence area. Exploration to date has identified a location of bright limestone of high purity CaO that will be targeted in a planned exploration programme over the next two years. Limestone targets of 40 million tonnes as well as extensive lower grade limestone are identified. Further investigation of markets will need to be completed to confirm commercial exploitation of the deposit.

p The Wingen bentonite exploration area is adjacent to and north of the Cressfield bentonite operation northwest of Scone in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales and contains identified near surface areas of up to six bentonite horizons separated by erosional gullies. Limited sampling to date from outcrops indicates the cation exchange capacity of the bentonite clays to be at least equivalent to those currently being mined in the region. An exploration programme to determine the thickness of the bentonite horizons and their extent will be conducted over the next two to three years. Markets available for the product will need to be ascertained.

p The exploration programmes and budgets that have been allocated to support these programmes are deemed reasonable and sufficient for the purpose of confirming the presence of resources.

Each of the exploration areas has been subject to varying degrees of historical exploration activity and show potential target locations that will be the subject of more detailed exploration by the Company.

Yours sincerely,

Available-for-sale financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” category are presented in the income statement within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise.

Income from financial assets at fair value through profit and loss is recognised in the income statement as part of income from continuing operations when the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

(n) Asset retirement obligations The Group’s mineral exploration and development activities are to be subject to various Australian and Indonesian laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. As a result of these, the Group is expected to incur expenses from time to time to discharge its obligations under these laws and regulations.

Reclamation and closure costs are estimated based on the Group’s interpretation of current regulatory and operating licence requirements and measured at fair value. Fair value is determined based on the net present value of future cash expenditures expected upon reclamation and closure and subsequent annual recognition of an accretion amount on the discounted liability. Reclamation and closure costs are capitalised as mine development costs and amortised over the life of the mine on a unit-of-production basis.

Resolution 6 related to the Orpheus Acquisition as noted below for the consideration of the issue of 25,000,000 post consolidated shares and 12,500,000 share options to Coalworks Limited. Resolution 7 related to a change on the nature and scale of activities of the Company and resolution 8 related to the proposal to allow an Equity Loan (up to $1,000,000 to be advanced by Coalworks) to be converted into shares and share options in Orpheus Energy as noted below. Resolution 9 sought the approval under Section 611(Item 7) of the Corporations Act 2010 relating to the issue of 25,000,000 shares (“Orpheus Acquisition Shares”) and 12,500,000 share options (“Orpheus Acquisition Options”), the issue of 5,000,000 shares (“Coalworks OE Shares”) by Orpheus Energy (and 2,500,000 share options(“Coalworks OE Options”) and the possibility of issuing a further 5,000,000 shares (“Additional Coalworks OE Shares”) by Orpheus Energy and allowing the exercise of up to another 2,500,000 share options (“Additional Coalworks OE Options”) to Coalworks. Further details are noted below. Resolution 10 related to the approval to allow the conversion of up to 30,000,000 Converting Notes that may be issued by Orpheus Energy Group Pty Ltd (“OEG”) a wholly owned subsidiary of Coalworks (all of the shares in OEG are being acquired pursuant to the Orpheus Acquisition) (along with up to 15,000,000 free attached Converting Share Options) to be converted into up to 30,000,000 ordinary shares (Converting Shares) in Orpheus Energy (and possibly the up to 15,000,000 share options being converted into up to 15,000,000 ordinary shares in Orpheus Energy at 20 cents each, on or before 31 December 2011). To 31 December 2010, OEG had issued 34,500,000 Converting Notes and thus 34,500,000 Converting Shares (and 17,250,000 Converting Share Options) are to be issued. Resolution 11 related to the proposal to issue up to 35 million post consolidated Placement Shares at not less than 20 cents each (this was part of the planned capital raising and the final issue price is to be 25 cents per Placement Share) and 17,500,000 post consolidated share options (exercisable at a price of 20 cents each, on or before 31 December 2011 (“Placement Options”) to investors to raise an initial up to $7,000,000 (now to be up to $15,000,000 including funds from a rights issue as noted below). On 23 March 2011, the shareholders approved the Placement of up to 55,600,000 shares at 50 cents each which effectively replaced the Resolution 11 approval which has been superseded by the resolution approved by shareholders on 23 March 2011. However in May 2011, due to changed circumstances, the Directors have now resolved to issue up to 60,000,000 shares at 25 cents each. Resolution 12 related to the proposal to issue up to 2,500,000 post consolidated shares at 20 cents each (“Issue Shares”) and 1,250,000 post consolidated share options (exercisable at 20 cents each, on or before 31 December 2011 (“Issue Options”) to various parties as consideration for the re-organisation and recapitalisation of Orpheus Energy. Resolution 13 related to the

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

PROSPECTUS 91

proposal to issue 12,750,000 share options (“Promoter Options”) exercisable at 20 cents each, on or before 30 September 2014. Resolution 14 related to the issue of 337,500 shares and 168,750 share options, (exercisable at 20 cents each on or before 31 December 2011) payable to certain directors and past directors of Orpheus Energy. Resolution 15 related to the issue of 1,750,000 post consolidated shares (“Corporate Shares”) and 875,000 share options exercisable at 20 cents each on or before 31 December 2011 (“Corporate Options”) to parties that have provided corporate services to the Company and assisted in its recapitalisation and the proposed acquisition of a 51% effective interest in the B26 Coal Project as further noted below and in the Prospectus. Resolutions 16, 17 and 18 related respectively to the appointments as director of Orpheus Energy, Messrs Wayne Mitchell, Wes Harder and Anthony King (all since appointed). It was also planned to undertake a 1 for 1 rights issue (“Rights Issue”) to all shareholders registered before the issue of any shares and share options proposed to be issued pursuant to resolutions 5 to 14 at 20 cents each (“Rights Issue Shares”) of which $500,000 (2,000,000 post consolidated shares) would be underwritten by Coalworks. The Rights Issue will now be undertaken at 25 cents per share on an adjusted 10,760,493 rights issue offering to raise up to a gross $2,690,123 but now forms part of the Capital Raising of up to $15,000,000 (minimum capital raising of $12,500,000 noted in section 1 of this report). However, the original shareholders will be entitled to one free attached share option for every two shares applied for, exercisable at 20 cents per share, on or before 31 December 2011. In the event that not all Rights Issue Shares (and free attached share options) are taken up by the original shareholders, the unsubscribed Rights Issue Shares will revert to the public issue without the share options. New investors who take up shares in the Placement will not be entitled to any free attached share options.

3.3 All original resolutions were approved by Orpheus Energy shareholders on 30 November 2010. Resolutions 6 and 9 in part related to Orpheus Energy acquiring from Coalworks, Coalworks legal and beneficial interest in:

x the Hodgson Vale Coal Project comprised in EPC 1145 (100%); x the Ashford Lime Project comprised in EL 6511; x a right to earn a 50% interest in the Wingen Bentonite Joint venture (Wingen Maid Project”) entered into by OEG and x 100% of the issued capital of OEG that has acquired rights to participate in further coal and industrial minerals projects (which includes a potential 51% interest in the B26 Coal Project in Indonesia.

(herein as referred to the Orpheus Acquisition Assets) for the consideration of the issue to Coalworks of 25,000,000 consolidated shares in AMFG (“Orpheus Acquisition Shares”) and 12,500,000 consolidated share options, exercisable at 20 cents each, on or before 31 December 2011 (“Orpheus Acquisition Options”) (since issued). Further details on the Orpheus Acquisition Assets are referred to in the Independent Technical (Geologist’s) Report (“Independent Geologist’s Report”) prepared by Minarco-MineConsult of Sydney NSW (“Minarco”) in Section 6 of the Prospectus. In addition, a valuation of the Orpheus Acquisition Assets (including OEG’s mineral asset interests) by Corvidae as trustee for the Ravensgate Unit trust trading as Ravensgate is forming part of Section 6 of the Prospectus. For the purpose of this report the proposed acquisition of all of the Orpheus Acquisition Assets from Coalworks is known as the Orpheus Acquisition. Resolution 6 referred to the Orpheus Acquisition and resolution 9 (part thereof) related to the proposal to issue the 25,000,000 Orpheus Acquisition Shares and allow the exercise of the 12,500,000 Orpheus Acquisition Options being issued to Coalworks as the consideration to acquire the Orpheus Acquisition Assets. The Orpheus Acquisition shares are being valued at a deemed 20 cents each (total $5,000,000) and the Orpheus Acquisition Options have been valued at $396,500. The Orpheus Acquisition in regard to the Hodgson Vale Coal Project and the Ashford Lime Project is pursuant to a Deed of Option whereby Orpheus Energy has the right to acquire such projects for the consideration noted above. The Option which originally was to be exercised by 30 September 2010 has been extended (twice) to 31 December 2011. The Orpheus Acquisition in regard to the acquisition of all of the shares in OEG was pursuant to a Deed of Option Over Shares whereby Orpheus

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

92 INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

Energy had the right to acquire such OEG shares for the consideration of $2 and the assumption of liabilities of OEG. The Option which originally was to be exercised by 30 September 2010 had been extended to 31 December 2010 and completion must occur by 30 April 2011. The Option was exercised on 15 December 2010 however the completion of the acquisition is subject to Orpheus Energy being admitted to the Official List of the ASX or receives conditional listing approval.

3.4 OEG to 31 December 2010 has issued 34,500,000 Converting Notes at an issue price of $0.10 each to raise a gross $3,450,000 that are to be converted into 34,500,000 ordinary shares in Orpheus Energy (along with 17,250,000 free attached Converting Share Options that may be converted into 17,250,000 shares in Orpheus Energy exercisable at 20 cents each, on or before 31 December 2011). Following the recapitalisation of Orpheus Energy by the consolidation of every 5 shares into 1 share the 34,500,000 Converting Notes issued are to be converted to 34,500,000 post consolidated ordinary shares in Orpheus Energy. Resolution 10 noted above allowed for the issue of up to 30,000,000 shares (and up to 15,000,000 free attached share options) to be issued to the Converting Note holders once Orpheus Energy acquires all of the shares in OEG, however 34,500,000 Converting Shares (and 17,250,000 Converting Share Options in Orpheus Energy) are now to be issued. The issue of the Converting Notes was to partly fund OEG earning up to a 51% interest in the B26 Coal Project (refer paragraph 3.7 below).

The shares in OEG are to be transferred to Orpheus Energy for a nominal consideration of $2 upon completion of the Capital Raising and approval from ASX for re-quotation of the Company’s shares on ASX. As noted elsewhere in this report, the Orpheus Acquisition consideration has been assessed at $5,396,500 being $5,000,000 for the 25,000,000 Orpheus Acquisition Shares and $396,500 for the Orpheus Acquisition Options on the basis that the Orpheus Energy shares to be issued will be issued on relisting (currently Orpheus Energy shares are near worthless).

OEG in April 2010 signed an Option and Joint Venture Deed with Plasminex Pty Ltd (“Plasminex”) whereby OEG had a 6 month option to ascertain the prospectivity of the Wingen Maid Project (a bentonite prospect covered by EL7142 and ELA 3657). Payment of the mining bond on ELA3757 by OEG is also envisaged in the Option. The Option and Joint Venture Deed was re-signed on 26 October 2010 and the option period extended for a further six month period to 26 April 2011 and then to 26 October 2011. OEG, if it exercises the option, must spend $500,000 on stage 1 (as defined) to earn a 50% interest in the Wingen Bentonite Joint Venture. It is proposed that Orpheus Energy will acquire the right by acquiring all of the shares in OEG. To date, commencement of the joint venture has yet to officially commence.

3.5 Resolution 8 and part of resolution 9 referred to the proposal for Orpheus Energy to issue 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares to Coalworks in consideration for Coalworks agreeing to forgive a converting loan (“Equity Loan”) of up to $132,557 that Coalworks has or will make to Orpheus Energy so that Orpheus Energy can repay all existing trade creditors and other liabilities and a further $367,443 of a debt owed by OEG to Coalworks. Coalworks had agreed to convert the Equity Loan Facility made to Orpheus Energy by issuing 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares as noted above. The repayment of the Equity Loan by way of the issue of up to 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares to Coalworks was as noted in resolution 7. Resolution 9 (part thereof) referred to the proposal to allow the issue of up to 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares to Orpheus Energy. OEG owed Coalworks approximately $1,135,837 as at 30 November 2010 but this has been reduced to $1,000,000 as at 28 February 2011 (“OEG Debt”) that includes the $132,557 noted above. Originally it was planned that $500,000 of the OEG Debt would be extinguished by the issue of the 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares and 2,500,000 Coalworks OE Options and the balance (that would be limited to a further $500,000) would either be paid in cash or may, at the election of Coalworks be settled by Orpheus Energy issuing further shares and share options to Coalworks. The limit of the OEG Debt was thus $1,000,000 that was be extinguished by the issue of 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares and either payment of $500,000 cash to Coalworks or the issue of a further 5,000,000 Additional Coalworks OE

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

PROSPECTUS 93

Shares by Orpheus Energy at a deemed issue price of 10 cents each at the option of Coalworks. If Additional Coalworks OE Shares were to be issued, Coalworks would be issued one free attached share option (“Additional Coalworks OE Options”) for every two Additional Coalworks OE Shares issued. Resolution 9 (part thereof) also referred to the proposal to allow the issue of up to 5,000,000 Additional Coalworks OE Shares to Orpheus Energy and up to 2,500,000 Additional Coalworks OE Options. Subsequently Coalworks agreed to extinguish the Equity Loan to its full value of $1,000,000 and 5,000,000 Coalworks OE Shares and 5,000,000 Additional Coalworks OE Shares (in effect ordinary shares in Orpheus Energy) are to be issued to Coalworks (in addition 2,500,000 Coalworks OE Options and 2,500,000 Additional Coalworks OE Options – all in affect ordinary share options in Orpheus Energy are to be issued to Coalworks).

3.6 OEG had signed a farm in Joint Venture Agreement in Kalimantan that includes an advanced coal project known as “B26” referring to Blocks 2 and 6 west of Balikpapan in East Kalimantan. Additional coal areas are to be reviewed as part of the Strategic Alliance agreement (refer below for further details). It is proposed to progress the existing advanced project to bankable feasibility status. OEG will drive an aggressive project management program to achieve early production at the B26 coal project in Kalimantan. The combination of management teams from OEG and its local Indonesian partner and its associations will focus on a low CapEx project within a short time frame. The B26 Project is held in the name of two Indonesian companies, PT Pola Andhika Realtor (“PAR”) and PT Berkah Bhumi Abadi (“BBA”). The combined carrying costs of the B26 Project in the 31 October 2010 unaudited balance sheets of PAR and BBA total approximately $9,387,600 using 13 December 2010 exchange rates between Australia and Indonesia. 51% represents a carrying value of approximately $4,787,676. Refer note 15 in relation to a lower valuation relating to the B26 Coal Project. In effect, via a Sale and Purchase Agreement of 18 November 2010, OEG is acquiring a 51% shareholding interest in PAR and BBA at a total cost of US$1,500,000. The acquisition of the shares in PAR and BBA are subject to certain conditions that include various regulatory matters that need to occur in Indonesia. To date, US$1,500,000 has been paid by Coalworks or OEG of which US$1,250,000 was paid for and is recorded in the books of OEG and US$250,000 was paid for by Coalworks on behalf of OEG by direction on completion of the transaction. The US$250,000 in the books of Coalworks will be reimbursed by Orpheus Energy subsequent to re-listing on the ASX. In the event that all condition precedents cannot be met by 31 December 2011, the US$1,500,000 is refundable to OEG. Royalties at the rate of US1.50 per tonne are payable on coal production. PAR has entered into a coal mining agreement with PT Tunas Bumi Menggala (PT TBM”) to establish a joint venture operation where PT TBM performs coal mining and coal selling, until 250,000 metric tonnes excavated has been sold and PAR and PT TBM shall receive 50% of the net profit from the coal selling proceeds.

3.7 OEG has signed a strategic alliance agreement with PT Mega Coal International (“Mega”) which is a current producer of thermal coal in Indonesia and has a portfolio of coal projects in Kalimantan which potentially could provide joint venture opportunities for Orpheus Energy. The strategic alliance provides:

¾ identification of synergies and efficiencies with respect to Orpheus Energy’s proposed management and development of the B26 Coal Project; ¾ preparation by Orpheus Energy and Mega of a list of suitable coal projects with a project assessment with respect to potential resource, project scope, CapEx and OpEx, and proposed timing for the various stages of each project, including consideration of the means by which infrastructure and be constructed for each project, and in particular methodologies to construct the mine and infrastructure and expected operating costs of each project; ¾ consideration of potential for the execution of further coal Joint Ventures between Mega and Orpheus Energy; and ¾ review of potential coal projects in Indonesia utilizing coal to liquids technology and potential for creation of a consortium to develop a coal to liquids plant for such projects.

4. Scope of Examination

4.1 You have requested Stantons International Securities to prepare an Investigating Accountant’s Report on:

a) The estimated statement of financial position of Orpheus Energy as at 30 April 2011; and b) Consolidated pro-forma statements A and B of financial position of Orpheus Energy at 30 April 2011 (unaudited) adjusted to include funds to be raised by the Prospectus and the completion of transactions referred to in note 2 of Appendix 2.

4.2 All of the financial information referred to above has not been audited however has been subject to audit review (except for the Statement of Financial Position to 30 June 2010). The auditor of Orpheus Energy (AMFG) qualified the audit report and disclaimed the financial statements to 30 June 2010. The proposed directors of Orpheus Energy are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the historical and pro-forma financial information, including the determination of the pro-forma transactions. We have however examined the financial statements and other relevant information and made such enquiries, as we considered necessary for the purposes of this report. The scope of our examination was substantially less than an audit examination conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Our examination included:

a) discussions with new directors and other key management of Orpheus Energy and OEG; b) a review of contractual arrangements; c) a review of publicly available information; and d) a review of work papers, accounting records and other documents.

5. Opinion

5.1 In our opinion, the pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position as set out in Appendix 2 presents fairly, the pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position of Orpheus Energy as at 30 April 2011 in accordance with the accounting methodologies required by Australian Accounting Standards on the basis of assumptions and transactions set out in Appendix 3. No opinion is expressed on the historical statement of financial position, as shown in Appendix 1, except to state that nothing has come to our attention which would require any further modification to the financial information in order for it to present fairly, the statement of financial position as at 30 April 2011.

5.2 To the best of our knowledge and belief, there have been no other material items, transactions or events subsequent to 30 April 2011 that have come to our attention during the course of our review which would cause the information included in this report to be misleading.

6. Other Matters

6.1 At the date of this report, Stantons International Securities or Stantons International does not have any material interest in Orpheus Energy either directly or indirectly, or in the outcome of the offer. Stantons International Securities were not involved in the preparation of any other part of the Prospectus, and accordingly, make no representations or warranties as to the completeness and accuracy of any information contained in any other part of the Prospectus. Stantons International Securities consents to the inclusion of this report (including Appendices 1 to 2) in the Prospectus in the form and content in which it is included. At the date of this report, this consent has not been withdrawn.

INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

APPENDIX 2

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION

1. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Accounting The condensed consolidated Statements of Financial Position have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Corporations Act 2001 and mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia (including the Australian equivalents of International Financial Reporting Standards) and we have made such disclosures as considered necessary. They have also been prepared on the basis of historical cost and do not take into account changing money values. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis that is dependent on the Placement Capital being successful and/or the Company raising additional capital to continue in business.

(b) Income Tax The charge for current income tax expense is based on the profit for the year adjusted for any non assessable or disallowed items. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or are substantially enacted as at balance date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxation profit or loss. Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the future tax profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences will be utilised. The amount of the benefits brought to account or which may be realised in the future is based on the assumption that no adverse change will occur in the income taxation legislation and the anticipation that the economic unit will derive sufficient future assessable income to enable the benefits to be realised and comply with the conditions of deductibility imposed by law.

(c) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure Exploration, evaluation and acquisition expenditure on areas of interest are assessed on a case by case basis and may be capitalised to areas of interest and carried forward where right of tenure of the area of interest is current and they are expected to be recouped through sale or successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. When an area of interest is abandoned or the directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated acquisition costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest is also reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated costs written off to the extent that they will not be recoverable in the future. Where projects have advanced to the stage that directors have made a decision to mine, they are classified as development properties. When further development expenditure is incurred in respect of a development property, such expenditure is carried forward as part of the cost of that development property only when substantial future economic benefits are established. Otherwise such expenditure is classified as part of the cost of production or written off where production has not commenced.

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

PROSPECTUS 99

(d) Plant and Equipment Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value, less where applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The carrying amount of the plant and equipment is reviewed annually by the Directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount of these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets employed and their subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present value in determining recoverable amounts.

Depreciation The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, but excluding freehold land, is depreciated on a straight line basis over their useful lives to the Company commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The asset’s residual value and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

An assets’ carrying value is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying value is greater than the estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposal are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement.

(e) Trade and other accounts payable Trade and other accounts payable represent the principal amounts outstanding at balance date, plus, where applicable, any accrued interest.

(f) Recoverable Amount of Non Current Assets The carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewed annually by directors to ensure they are not in excess of the recoverable amounts from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows, which will be received from the assets employed and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been or will be discounted to present values in determining recoverable amounts.

(g) Operating Revenue Revenue represents interest received and reimbursements of exploration expenditures.

(h) Issued Capital Ordinary Shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options, or for the acquisition of a business, are included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.

(i) Principles of Consolidation The pro-forma consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Orpheus Energy and its subsidiary, OEG (“the Group”). The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. The existing subsidiaries of Orpheus Energy are assumed to be no longer part of the Orpheus Energy Group for the purposes of the report.

Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist. All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Subsidiaries are consolidated

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

100 INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and cease to be consolidated from the date on which control is transferred out of the Group. Where there is loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting period during which Orpheus Energy has control.

(j) Employee benefits Provision is made for employee benefits accumulated as a result of employees rendering services up to the reporting date. These benefits include wages and salaries, annual leave, and long service leave.

Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. In determining the present value of future cash outflows, the market yield as at the reporting date on national government bonds, which have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability, are used.

(k) Share Based Payments The Group provides benefits to employees (including directors) of the Group in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (“equity-settled transactions”). The cost of these equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using Black-Scholes or Binomial option pricing models.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (“vesting date”). The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until vesting date reflects (i) the extent to which the vesting period has expired and (ii) the number of awards that, in the opinion of the directors of the Group, will ultimately vest. This opinion is formed based on the best available information at balance date. No adjustment is made for the likelihood of market performance conditions being met as the effect of these conditions is included in the determination of fair value at grant date.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is substituted for the cancelled award, and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification of the original award.

(l) Critical accounting estimates and judgements In preparing Financial Reports, the Company has been required to make certain estimates and assumptions concerning future occurrences. There is an inherent risk that the resulting accounting estimates will not equate exactly with actual events and results.

Significant accounting judgements In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

PROSPECTUS 101

Capitalisation of exploration and evaluation expenditure The Group has capitalised significant acquisition expenditure on the basis either that this is expected to be recouped through future successful development (or alternatively sale) of the Areas of Interest concerned or on the basis that it is not yet possible to assess whether it will be recouped.

Significant accounting estimates and assumptions The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:

Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure The future recoverability of capitalised acquisition expenditure is dependent on an number of factors, including whether the Company decides to exploit the related lease itself, or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, costs of drilling and production, production rates, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices.

(m) Investments and other financial assets The Company classifies its investments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition and, in the case of assets classified as held-to-maturity, re-evaluates this designation at each reporting date.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Assets in this category are classified as current assets.

Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are included in trade and other receivables in the statement of financial position.

Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the reporting date, which are classified as current assets.

Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the statement of financial position date.

Recognition and derecognition Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date – the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are

ORP5379A/IAR Orpheus Energy 17 May 2011 Final

102 INVESTIGATING ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT

initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value and transaction costs are expensed to the statement of financila performance. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

When securities are classified as available-for-sale are sold, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in equity are included in the statement of financial performance as gains and losses from investment securities.

Subsequent measurement Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Available-for-sale financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” category are presented in the income statement within other income or other expenses in the period in which they arise.

Income from financial assets at fair value through profit and loss is recognised in the income statement as part of income from continuing operations when the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

(n) Asset retirement obligations The Group’s mineral exploration and development activities are to be subject to various Australian and Indonesian laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment. As a result of these, the Group is expected to incur expenses from time to time to discharge its obligations under these laws and regulations.

Reclamation and closure costs are estimated based on the Group’s interpretation of current regulatory and operating licence requirements and measured at fair value. Fair value is determined based on the net present value of future cash expenditures expected upon reclamation and closure and subsequent annual recognition of an accretion amount on the discounted liability. Reclamation and closure costs are capitalised as mine development costs and amortised over the life of the mine on a unit-of-production basis.

12. Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

OEG entered into a contract with Surge Capital Corporation (“Sure”) in relation to a mandate on capital raisings for up to US$25,000,000 details of which are disclosed in the Material Contracts Section of the Prospectus. Further warrants (share options) may be issued to Surge that is equal to the number resulting from multiplying 5% (plus any applicable taxes) with the gross value of the amount raised and dividing it by the “warrant exercise price”. These share options would be exercisable for a 5 year period. The exercise price is equal to (i) the lowest warrant exercise price of an warrants issued to any name investor in the financing; or (ii) in the event of no warrants being issued to a named investor, the closing price of the company’ common shares on the day prior to financing, less any discount permitted by the rules of the ASX. For amounts over US$25,000,000, share warrants (options) will be issued equal to 3% on the same terms as noted but replacing 5% with 3%. Financing fees are also payable as noted in the Material Contracts Section of the Prospectus. The Company intends to establish a special purpose entity funded with $5,000,000 from the raising to further the objectives of the Strategic Alliance. The Strategic Alliance is constantly reviewing opportunities, such potential projects includes Blocks 5, 8, 9 and 10 at Kintap South Kalimantan in Indonesia amongst others. Based on discussions with the Directors and legal advisors, to our knowledge, the Company has no other material commitment or contingent liabilities not otherwise disclosed in this Investigating Accountant’s Report and in the Prospectus. Investors should read the Independent Exploration Title Report, the Legal Consultants Report on Mining Concessions and the Acquisition Review Report and the Material Contracts Section of the Prospectus for further possible contingencies and commitments. A number of tenements may be subject to royalty payments on production of minerals. For details on proposed exploration commitments on mineral tenements, refer to the Independent Reports and Section 3 in the Prospectus.

13. Rental Of Premises Commitments

The Company has not entered into a lease of premises agreement as at 28 February 2011. OEG had a rental lease agreement that expired on 31 January 2011 at the rate of $27,500 per annum but this was not extended. OEG has signed a new lease agreement to rent premises at the rate of $6,439.15 inclusive of GST for a period of 12 months from 1 February 2011 and a bond deposit of $12,878.25 (inclusive of GST) has been paid. The first two months are rent free. OEG may extend the rental period by 12 months.

14. Management Agreements

The outside equity interests of PAR and BBA would equate to $1,323,000 being 49% of the $2,700,000 valuation attributable to a 100% interest in the B26 Coal Project. The Orpheus Acquisition Assets that include the Indonesian joint ventures/ mining assets may not turn out to be commercially viable and thus losses may be incurred. The 7 June 2010 Heads of Agreement (“HOA”) between OEG, PT Mega Coal Indomine, PT Persada Kharisma Kenanga, PAR and BBA results in US$1,500,000 being paid by OEG so that OEG ends up owning 51% of the share capital of PAR and BBA, that between them own the B26 Coal Project in Indonesia. The funds are due to be paid on the listing of OEG on the ASX (via the re-quotation of all of the Orpheus Energy shares). We have been informed that the loans to the existing shareholders of PAR and BBA are to be forgiven (approximately equivalent to around $10.5 million) and that there are no tax consequences. This assertion has not been verified by us. OEG is able to seek verification of these matters prior to the acquisition by OEG of 51% of the shares in PAR and BBA. No adjustments have been made to account for the potential acquisition of 50% of Pelita and Prima as noted in the Background Section 3.6 of this report. No details have been obtained on the financial information of Pelita and Prima.

On acquisition of a 100% shareholding interest in OEG by Orpheus Energy, the net assets being acquired (using unaudited 30 April 2011 figures) are as follows:

LEGAL CONSULTANT’S REPORT ON MINING CONCESSIONS

Dear Sirs,

1. INTRODUCTION

Orpheus Energy Group Pty Ltd. (“OEG”) has requested Hadiputranto, Hadinoto & Partners, Jakarta to prepare a report regarding the good standing of title to two coal mining concessions in Kalimantan, Indonesia held by PT Pola Andhika Realtor (“PAR”) and PT Berkah Bhumi Abadi (“BBA”).

The scope of this Report is limited to: p a review of the corporate standing of PAR and BBA; p a review of the mining concessions held by PAR and BBA. This Report is not, and should not be considered to be, a full legal audit of or a full due diligence on PAR and BBA or the mining concessions that they hold. We have not sought to investigate any taxation and accounting matters.

The information contained in this Report is prepared based on our review of documents made available to us by PAR and BBA (“Documents Reviewed”). The list of these documents will be provided separately with our Acquisition Review Report dated 29 March 2011.

This report is subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out in Schedule 1 of this Report.

We have not conducted public searches for any litigation actions which may have been commenced against PAR and BBA. We have, however, reviewed all of the Documents Reviewed to determine whether any litigation actions or disputes have been mentioned.

Hadiputranto, Hadinoto & Partners is a member of Baker & McKenzie International, a Swiss Verein.

PROSPECTUS 111 In Indonesia generally “public” searches can take several weeks (depending on the search and on location), and the results are often unreliable due to the fact that the majority of records are kept in manual filing systems, and documents are often lost or misfiled.

This Report may not be copied, circulated, quoted or divulged to, or used by or relied upon by, any person or entity other than OEG without the prior written consent of Hadiputranto, Hadinoto & Partners, Jakarta (Reference: Luke Devine).

2. CONFIRMATION OF CORPORATE STANDING OF PT PAR AND PT BBA

PAR is a limited liability company established under Deed of Establishment No. 1 dated 1 August 1990 made before Tien Norman Lubis, SH., Notary in Bandung, which has been approved by the Minister of Law and Human Rights (“MoLHR”) pursuant to its Decree C2-6321.HT.01.01.TH’91, dated 2 November 1991 which has been registered in the Company Registry and has been announced in the State Gazette No. 13 Supplement No. 626 dated 14 February 1992. We have seen no evidence from the Documents Reviewed that PAR has been liquidated or dissolved.

BBA is a limited liability company established under Deed of Establishment No. 70 dated 23 November 2004 made before Agustinus Sandimin, SH., Notary in Tanah Grogot as been amended by Deed No. 27 dated 14 April 2005, which has been approved by MoLHR pursuant to its Decree No.C-15846 HT.01.01.TH.2005, dated 8 June 2005 and has been announced in the State Gazette No. 93 Supplement No. 27457 dated 20 November 2009. We have seen no evidence from the Documents Reviewed that BBA has been liquidated or dissolved.

Based on the register of shareholders maintained by PAR and our review of the corporate documents of PAR, the current shareholders of PAR are:

Number Nominal Value Percentage Shareholders of Shares (Rp) (%)

PT Persada Kharisma Kenanga 39,930 39,930,000,000 96.4 Jose Rizal Idham 1,500 1,500,000,000 3.6 Total 10,000 10,000,000,000 100

Based on the register of shareholders maintained by BBA and our review of the corporate documents of BBA, the current shareholders of BBA are:

Number Nominal Value Percentage Shareholders of Shares (Rp) (%)

PT Mega Coal Indomine 43,822 43,822,000,000 99.9 PT Mega Coal International 3 3,000,000 1 Total 300 300,000,000 100

3. THE MINING CONCESSIONS

PAR obtained a Operation Production Mining Business Permit (Izin Usaha Pertambangan Operasi Produksi) from the Regent of Paser Regency pursuant to his Decree No.545/14/Operasi Produksi/Ek/

112 REPORT ON MINING CONCESSIONS – INDONESIA V/2010 dated 7 April 2010 (“Operation Production IUP”). This concession is for a period of 5 years. From 5 June 2008 until 4 June 2013, and covers 164.97 Ha (located in the Tiwei Village, Districts of Long Ikis and Paser Regency, East Kalimantan Province). This Operation Production IUP authorizes PAR to undertake construction, mining, processing and refining and transportation and selling activity.

Pursuant to the provisions of the Indonesian mining laws and regulations in force at the time the PAR licences were issued, these licences can be revoked by the issuing authority in the event that the holder of the licences fails to comply with any obligations under those licences and the prevailing laws, and does not remedy within the cure period granted by the issuing authority. We have seen nothing in the Documents Reviewed that indicates that the issuing authority has revoked PAR’s mining concessions. PAR management has confirmed that they have not received any notice of non-compliance from the Regency of Paser. In addition, we have conducted searches of the mining concession maps maintained by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources in Jakarta, and those maps record PAR as the holder of mining concessions matching the details set out above. Under the Law No 4/2009 on Mineral and Coal Mining passed on 12 January 2009 (“New Mining Law”) and its subsequent implementing regulations, all mining concessions issued prior to the introduction of the New Mining Law are required to be adjusted to become Izin Usaha Pertambangan (IUPs), being the form of mining business licence introduced under the New Mining Law, by 30 April 2010. We have seen a recommendation letter from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources to the Regional Government of Paser Regency (the issuer of the previous mining licenses) which confirms that the Regional Government was allowed to proceed with the adjustment of the previous mining license to become an IUP. Although not mandated by the regulations (which are largely silent as to the process of adjustment of pre-existing mining licenses to IUPs), in our experience, the issuance of this letter is a necessary step of the adjustment process prior to the new IUP being issued by the relevant Regional Government. Accordingly PAR has obtained the Operation Production IUP. The New Mining Law and its implementing regulations are silent as to the consequences of a pre-New Mining Law mining licence not being adjusted to become an IUP by 30 April 2010. We are aware, however, that despite the fact that the deadline has passed, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources continues to recognise the validity of IUPs which are issued after the 30 April 2010 deadline.

BBA obtained an exploration mining business license (Izin Usaha Pertambangan Eksplorasi) from the Regent of Paser Regency pursuant to his Decree No. 545/3/Eksplorasi/Ek/2010, dated 27 October 2010 (“Exploration IUP”). This concession is for a period of 1 year i.e. from 27 October 2010 until 27 October 2011, and covers 1,951.57 Ha (located in the Tiwei and Belimbing Village, Districts of Long Ikis and Paser Regency, East Kalimantan Province).

Pursuant to the provisions of the Indonesian mining laws and regulations in force at the time the BBA licences were issued, these licences can be revoked by the issuing authority in the event that the holder of the licences fails to comply with any obligations under those licences and the prevailing laws, and does not remedy within the cure period granted by the issuing authority. We have seen nothing in the Documents Reviewed that indicates that the issuing authority has revoked BBA’s mining concessions. BBA management has confirmed that they have not received any notice of non-compliance from the Regency of Paser. In addition, we have conducted searches of the mining concession maps maintained by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources in Jakarta, and those maps record BBA as the holder of mining concessions matching the details set out above. Similar to the PAR existing mining licence, the BBA mining licence has been adjusted to become an IUP. Unlike PAR, no recommendation letter was issued by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources.

Yours faithfully, Hadiputranto, Hadinoto & Partners
