QUARTERLY REPORT DECEMBER 2013 PAGE 1

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY

The Directors have reviewed businesses outside of the mineral exploration industry that have the potential to grow shareholder wealth in the medium to long term, for an extended period of time. After a diligent and disciplined search, the Directors were pleased to announce on the 28 October 2015, the acquisition of Linius (Aust) Pty Ltd.

Linius has the rights to a transformative patented technology in video management and broadcasting.

The highlights of the Linius business are as follows;

  • Linius transforms video file management and distribution by indexing and managing data within the video file itself.

  • Linius has the potential to disrupt the entire video value chain.

  • Potential to dramatically reduce the production and supply side costs of video management by, for example, removing the need for transcoding to the myriad of file formats required for broadcasting to different devices.

  • Potential to facilitate truly personalised viewing experiences. No two streams need ever be the same again.

  • In 2013, the Global Broadcasting & Cable TV Market had a Value of $435 Billion (ref: PRNewswire).

  • US and International patents granted.

  • Limited deployment partners identified.

  • 93% of all consumer web traffic and 64% of mobile is video (ref: Cisco).

  • Strong management team in place with extensive experience in the video space.

Linius Background

Linius has designed and patented the world’s first video virtualisation engine. The technology transforms large inflexible video files into small highly flexible data structures. The patented process applies two highly successful techniques to video – data indexing and virtualisation, which means that video can be indexed, spliced and edited in real time.

Content publishing no longer requires transcoding, complex workflow systems or numerous individual streams to personalise video delivery. Instead video files can be virtualised and delivered as required to any standards based device.

Some of the key potential benefits include:

For Content owners:

  • Greater opportunity to monetise content catalogues

  • Almost eliminate transcoding costs

  • Improved security and control of assets

  • Access and manage entire content database

QUARTERLY REPORT SEPTEMBER 2015 PAGE 2

For Broadcasters:

  • Simplified workflow for video play out on standards based devices

  • Capability to truly personalise content viewing experiences

  • Ability to insert specific ads in individuals streams

  • Personalised pricing options

Infrastructure providers:

  • Dramatically reduce transport, storage and broadcast costs

  • Significant capex savings on infrastructure and storage costs

Linius has 7 patents and 12 patent applications across 9 countries including a freedom to operate in the USA.

ENTITLEMENT ISSUE

Firestrike plans to undertake an entitlement issue to raise funds to meet working capital requirements and to pay costs associated with the due diligence and acquisition of Linius.

The entitlement issue will offer all eligible shareholders the right to subscribe for three new FIE Shares for every eleven FIE Shares held by a shareholder on the record date. The entitlement issue will be offered on the basis of $0.02 (2 cents) per new FIE Share to raise up to $500,000.

FUTHER INFORMATION

For further information on proposed acquisition of Linius, please review the ASX announcement dated 28 October 2015 that includes information on the proposed new Directors, the acquisition terms, name change, board changes and proposed capital structure.

Copper Ridge Project – Utah USA. (100% Firestrike Resources Limited)

The Company continues to maintain its mineral asset in meeting its statutory obligations. Initial conclusions form ongoing desk top studies recommended a number of claims may be reduced. This is in order to minimise expenditure with the remaining claims covering the key prospects already defined. The asset remains of value to the Company and the project will continue to be maintained to meet the requirements of State and the Federal legislation in the USA.
