    • $0 5m. first tranche received 31[st] January 2012

    • o $1-1.5m second tranche in progress

  • Cost reduction to delay need for further capital

    • Exec Directors now on capped hourly rate arrangements

    • Overheads being reduced

  • Progress on key projects

Canning Basin – interest has soared over the last 12 months

==> picture [141 x 60] intentionally omitted <==

  • EIA identified the Canning as having the largest

  • unconventional potential in Australia

  • High domestic gas prices (~$8/GJ) with emerging

  • routes to market including LNG

  • Intense interest in the basin with majors taking

  • positions

    • Mitsubishi with BRU

    • Conoco Philips with NSE in Goldwyer Shale

    • o Hess on southern margin

  • Substantial share price uplifts over last 12 months:

  • BRU +415% and NSE +225%

  • Exploration success by Buru confirms the potential

  • of Green Rock’s interests in the Laurel shale gas play in the Fitzroy Trough / Gregory sub-basin: o Yullerro-2 – gas and condensate flowed to surface from Laurel sands/shales following reservoir stimulation o Valhalla-2 – gas and condensate naturally flowed to surface from Laurel sands/shales o Valhalla North-1 has confirmed regional

    • extent of accumulation o Ungani -1 – significant oil column in Laurel carbonate section, flowed to surface at peak rates of 1,650 bopd
