UKIS 2017 KIBO NotesPolicy Changes -Can you explain the difference between the Tanzanian Energy and Policy Procurement Review that is underway, as per the recent presentation and the MEM Policy Review that is completed as per 23/3/17 RNS?These are two completely diffrent reviews. It's hard to put a linear %, in terms of how much of the TEPPR is completed but it's believed the main components have been completed and these aren't really a dealing factor to the ultimate delivery of the project. There is a gazetting process to ensure any changes don't conflict with any other laws etc before being made official.In your assessment how long will the Tanzainan Energy And Policy Procurement Review take to complete?Unable to accurately say but see above that the main bulk of the work has been completed already. So we should be on the home straight.As discussed last year, can you tell me of which, if either, KIBO have had direct input too?Yes they have had input into both of these. Therefore, I read they must have reasonable knowledge of the processes and there shaping of the future.Overall how do you expect all policy changes to benefit the MCPP?Kibo will be benefit for a more robust, solid and sustainable set of rules within the overall framework of reliability within Tanzania. I.e it will ensure all payments etc will be made as agreed which is important for a project like the MCPP which is going to, run for over 25 years.ESIA -What does the ESIA Certification process involve?Literally just a final check and a signing off process. There could be the odd question that may come back to KIBO or a confirmation of certain elements but basically it is what it is, a signing up process.Given the timelines for ESIA certification acquired by other companies, the ESIA certification for KIBO should be imminent. Is there anything else that is holding this up i.e hanging on outstanding policy changes and should we expect this any day now, by that reasoning?Yes KIBO are awaiting this to drop anytime now with nothing else holding this up.SML -Given the timelines for SML approval acquired by other companies, the SML approval for KIBO should be imminent. Is there anything else that is holding this up i.e hanging on outstanding policy changes and should we expect this any day now, by that reasoning?Again, yes KIBO are awaiting this to drop anytime now with nothing else holding this up.PPA -Given the phrases used in the RNS of the 23/3/17 of 'ensuring that a final PPA can be concluded ASAP'. Can we verify that preliminary PPA tariffs were applied to the facilitate the production of the IBFS and Financial Model?The conversation quickly negated this section of questions. LC explained that we have no figures to plug in anywhere and this method of thought is the direct opposite to what is actually happening in reality in this process. We are working this completely the other way around. We are saying what the tariff figures should be, driven from the independently produced figures via the feasibility studies completed. We have control and push negotiations to where we want them to be not the other way around. To me, this means we guarantee a profitable outcome for the project. If so, we're these preliminary PPA tarriffs agreed with Tanesco?N/AAgain, and if so, are the accuracy of these tariffs still withstanding given the policy reviews?N/AFC -Can we assume once we have an ESIA, SML and PPA we can advance straight to FC or are there any other workstreams that need completing that will hold up going to FC? Yes, although some parallel work means part of FC can already be in progress. It is possible to call a scenario of being in a Preliminary FC.Are SEPCO bound to pay you the $3.6m on entering FC or at the completion of FC?This will be on competition of FC but this is not seen to cause any problems in anyway.Will there be a news blackout during FC due to its sensitive nature?Once we reach FC, or more accurately on signing the PPA, that is when the real figures and detail can be released. LC seemed to allude on more than one occasion to look at the figures for the coal that you can workout to give a good pointer to the value that lies ahead. Therefore I don't see FC as requiring a suspension or news blackout.MCPP General -How our partners feel about the delays induced by the Government?They seem pretty understanding of the region and it's development. Obviously they have huge budgets and can outside these types of delays, so no issue here.Did Sandersons acquisition of part of the MCPP surprise you, especially vs their usual MO?LC agreed that obviously it isn't there normal line of business and that it probsbly surprised Sandersons themselves more than it did himself when they got so deeply involved. They have made a huge commitment that the believe they will benefit from.Are you any closer to knowing whether the project will be separated or integrated?No comment.What is your gut feel on which route you prefer to go down?No comment.Do you feel a 30% retention as previously alluded to is realistic or had that changed +/-?Yes this is entirely still possible and and therefore valid figure to base any calculations on.When Sandersons took their 2.5% valuing the MCPP at a discounted $100m, what was the agreed discount valued at?Although he couldn't recall the discounted figure he interesting said this value was based only on the figures from the mine. This took me back a touch as it was the complete opposite to what I expected. In fact, it may well, give rise to the fact my recent 25p a share figure for u the mine for each 300MW is too low. It puts it back to being more 35p and discounted at that !!! He must be expecting a much better price than $32.7mt for the coal being sold into the plant, imo.Can you confirm this 2.5% of the MCPP includes the mine. N/AHow does the MEN's statement that 30% of Tanzanian Mining Companies Share holding must be floated on the DSE affect all of our projects especially the MCPP?This would only affect projects that require an SML. Therfore only affect the MCPP. That said, LC was of the opinion that this would in all likelyhood NOT apply to us due to the National Strategic Importance of the project. Make of that, what you will.Can we still expect the MCPP to be spun out ala Katoro?It will either be spun out or in all likelyhood hood, Hanetti will be spun out leaving the MCPP on its own with KIBO.If so at what point would you need to initiate this?N/A. As an aside Noel seemed very excited about Hanetti. I had the feeling more work had been going on there than they have let on possibly.Sandersons -Can you give the exact repayment date of the current 2.9m loan facility?There is no set date and this is a very fluid arrangement. The distinct impressions I got was that there is alot more commitment between all these parties towards eachother than we give them credit for. Sandersons are not there to screw KIBO over for missed dates etc. From what LC said it seems very fluid and flexible. He seemed relaxed to the point of dismissing this as any issue whatsoever.

They have made a huge commitment that the believe they will benefit from.Are you any closer to knowing whether the project will be separated or integrated?No comment.What is your gut feel on which route you prefer to go down?No comment.Do you feel a 30% retention as previously alluded to is realistic or had that changed +/-?Yes this is entirely still possible and and therefore valid figure to base any calculations on.When Sandersons took their 2.5% valuing the MCPP at a discounted $100m, what was the agreed discount valued at?Although he couldn't recall the discounted figure he interesting said this value was based only on the figures from the mine. This took me back a touch as it was the complete opposite to what I expected. In fact, it may well, give rise to the fact my recent 25p a share figure for u the mine for each 300MW is too low. It puts it back to being more 35p and discounted at that !!! He must be expecting a much better price than $32.7mt for the coal being sold into the plant, imo.Can you confirm this 2.5% of the MCPP includes the mine. N/AHow does the MEN's statement that 30% of Tanzanian Mining Companies Share holding must be floated on the DSE affect all of our projects especially the MCPP?This would only affect projects that require an SML. Therfore only affect the MCPP. That said, LC was of the opinion that this would in all likelyhood NOT apply to us due to the National Strategic Importance of the project. Make of that, what you will.Can we still expect the MCPP to be spun out ala Katoro?It will either be spun out or in all likelyhood hood, Hanetti will be spun out leaving the MCPP on its own with KIBO.If so at what point would you need to initiate this?N/A. As an aside Noel seemed very excited about Hanetti. I had the feeling more work had been going on there than they have let on possibly.Sandersons -Can you give the exact repayment date of the current 2.9m loan facility?There is no set date and this is a very fluid arrangement. The distinct impressions I got was that there is alot more commitment between all these parties towards eachother than we give them credit for. Sandersons are not there to screw KIBO over for missed dates etc. From what LC said it seems very fluid and flexible. He seemed relaxed to the point of dismissing this as any issue whatsoever.

UKIS 2017 KIBO NotesPolicy Changes -Can you explain the difference between the Tanzanian Energy and Policy Procurement Review that is underway, as per the recent presentation and the MEM Policy Review that is completed as per 23/3/17 RNS?These are two completely diffrent reviews. It's hard to put a linear %, in terms of how much of the TEPPR is completed but it's believed the main components have been completed and these aren't really a dealing factor to the ultimate delivery of the project. There is a gazetting process to ensure any changes don't conflict with any other laws etc before being made official.In your assessment how long will the Tanzainan Energy And Policy Procurement Review take to complete?Unable to accurately say but see above that the main bulk of the work has been completed already. So we should be on the home straight.As discussed last year, can you tell me of which, if either, KIBO have had direct input too?Yes they have had input into both of these. Therefore, I read they must have reasonable knowledge of the processes and there shaping of the future.Overall how do you expect all policy changes to benefit the MCPP?Kibo will be benefit for a more robust, solid and sustainable set of rules within the overall framework of reliability within Tanzania. I.e it will ensure all payments etc will be made as agreed which is important for a project like the MCPP which is going to, run for over 25 years.ESIA -What does the ESIA Certification process involve?Literally just a final check and a signing off process. There could be the odd question that may come back to KIBO or a confirmation of certain elements but basically it is what it is, a signing up process.Given the timelines for ESIA certification acquired by other companies, the ESIA certification for KIBO should be imminent. Is there anything else that is holding this up i.e hanging on outstanding policy changes and should we expect this any day now, by that reasoning?Yes KIBO are awaiting this to drop anytime now with nothing else holding this up.SML -Given the timelines for SML approval acquired by other companies, the SML approval for KIBO should be imminent. Is there anything else that is holding this up i.e hanging on outstanding policy changes and should we expect this any day now, by that reasoning?Again, yes KIBO are awaiting this to drop anytime now with nothing else holding this up.PPA -Given the phrases used in the RNS of the 23/3/17 of 'ensuring that a final PPA can be concluded ASAP'. Can we verify that preliminary PPA tariffs were applied to the facilitate the production of the IBFS and Financial Model?The conversation quickly negated this section of questions. LC explained that we have no figures to plug in anywhere and this method of thought is the direct opposite to what is actually happening in reality in this process. We are working this completely the other way around. We are saying what the tariff figures should be, driven from the independently produced figures via the feasibility studies completed. We have control and push negotiations to where we want them to be not the other way around. To me, this means we guarantee a profitable outcome for the project. If so, we're these preliminary PPA tarriffs agreed with Tanesco?N/AAgain, and if so, are the accuracy of these tariffs still withstanding given the policy reviews?N/AFC -Can we assume once we have an ESIA, SML and PPA we can advance straight to FC or are there any other workstreams that need completing that will hold up going to FC? Yes, although some parallel work means part of FC can already be in progress. It is possible to call a scenario of being in a Preliminary FC.Are SEPCO bound to pay you the $3.6m on entering FC or at the completion of FC?This will be on competition of FC but this is not seen to cause any problems in anyway.Will there be a news blackout during FC due to its sensitive nature?Once we reach FC, or more accurately on signing the PPA, that is when the real figures and detail can be released. LC seemed to allude on more than one occasion to look at the figures for the coal that you can workout to give a good pointer to the value that lies ahead. Therefore I don't see FC as requiring a suspension or news blackout.MCPP General -How our partners feel about the delays induced by the Government?They seem pretty understanding of the region and it's development. Obviously they have huge budgets and can outside these types of delays, so no issue here.Did Sandersons acquisition of part of the MCPP surprise you, especially vs their usual MO?LC agreed that obviously it isn't there normal line of business and that it probsbly surprised Sandersons themselves more than it did himself when they got so deeply involved.

Coatzee Sling your hook and p--s off as you obviously can't do the job in hand.
