RNS Number:7877E Nikanor Plc 01 October 2007 1 October 2007 NIKANOR ANNOUNCES PROJECT FINANCING MANDATE Nikanor PLC is pleased to announce that it has mandated Citi and Standard Chartered Bank to jointly structure and arrange approximately US$800 million of project financing for the development of its KOV Project. The project involves rehabilitating the KOV mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo and building the world's largest copper and cobalt refinery of its type. Citi will act as coordinator under the mandate, with funding expected to include financing support from export credit agencies, development financing institutions and commercial lenders. In due course, Nikanor expects to appoint a core group of Lead Arrangers comprising banks who have already expressed interest in the financing, thus ensuring the optimal financing package for the project. The financing is expected to close in 2008. Commenting on this development, Jonathan Leslie, Executive Chairman of Nikanor said: "This announcement represents a substantial step toward the completion of the funding of our project and we are pleased to be working with such experienced institutions as Citi and Standard Chartered bank. Our current cash balance of $1 billion means that work on the project will continue uninterrupted while we complete this final step in the funding process."
