Forfeiture and Sale of Unquoted Partly Paid Shares

Dart Mining NL ( Dart ) announced on 8 December 2009 that its Board had resolved to make a call of 9 cents per partly paid share on issue (being 8,875,000 unquoted partly paid shares).

Calls in respect of 1,813,332 partly paid shares have been paid, with calls on 7,061,668 partly paid shares remaining unpaid. Accordingly, those 7,061,668 partly paid shares are now forfeited.

Sale by Public Auction

The Company will now proceed to sell by public auction the 7,061,668 forfeited unquoted partly paid shares on Tuesday, 2 February 2010, further details of which will be advertised in The Australian . This number of forfeited partly paid shares proposed to be sold is provisional, as the Corporations Act provides that shareholders may redeem their partly paid shares up to or on the last business day before the proposed auction by paying all calls due on the shares and a proportionate share of any expenses incurred by Dart in relation to the forfeiture and the proceeding taken in respect of the forfeiture.
