Company Announcement Officer Australian Securities Exchange

IEC REPORTS STRONG IMPROVEMENT IN SEPTEMBER OPERATIONS

Intra Energy Corporation Limited (“IEC”) is pleased to announce a strong increase in sales and improvement in pricing for the month of September. This follows the reduction in stockpiles of imported coal following the Tanzanian Government's ban on imported coal (Refer ASX announcement on 12 August 2016). It is expected that this trend will continue with strong sales orders for October.

Sales increased by 25% to 27,552 tonnes in September over August 2016. Generally, thermal coal prices rose strongly in Tanzania reflecting the strengthening in coal prices from South Africa.

The operating company, Tancoal Energy Lt), which is 70% owned by IEC has moved to ensure sufficient production by increasing working capital through the increased overdraft approved by KCB Bank of Tanzania, (Refer ASX announcement on 29 September 2016) and by engaging Effco Solutions (T) Ltd, a local mining contractor to produce approximately 15,000 tonnes per month. The Company has also increased its production capacity by the hire of an additional excavator from Ramani Contractors.

A detailed update will be provided in the Quarterly Activities Report later this month.
