Dear Shareholder

NON-RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS ISSUE

On 26 May 2015 Korab Resources Limited ( Korab or Company ) announced a partially underwritten pro-rata entitlement share issue to eligible shareholders.

Terms of Rights Issue

Shareholders who are registered with an address in Australia or New Zealand at 5.00 pm AWST on Monday, 1 June 2015 ( Eligible Shareholders as at Record Date ) will be eligible to participate in a pro-rata non-renounceable rights issue on the basis of one fully paid ordinary share in the Company ( New Share ) for every three (3) shares held at an issue price of $0.03 per share ( Rights Issue ).

The Rights Issue will result in the issue of up to approximately 50.75 million New Shares to raise up to $1.522 million before costs of the Rights Issue.

The Rights Issue is partly underwritten up to $600,000 by Rheingold Investments Corporation Pty Ltd ( Underwriter ) which is an associated entity of Mr Andrej K. Karpinski, a director of the Company.

Proceeds received from the Rights Issue will be applied to the costs of the Rights Issue, the Company’s ongoing working capital requirements, consistent with its strategy disclosed to date and to reduce the Company’s debt (currently approximately $2.3 million). Korab’s strategy includes progressing Winchester magnesite deposit towards development as a direct shipping ore quarry, securing offtake and sale agreements for Geolsec phosphate quarry and exploration and evaluation of other Korab’s properties. The Directors reserve the discretion in respect of this. The exact allocation of amounts will depend on how much is raised under the Offer and how much is underwritten (as the Underwriter may offset subscription monies against the debt owed to it).

In accordance with the requirements of the ASX Listing Rules, the following information on the Rights Issue and the Company is provided:

Principal Terms of issue
of securities
New Shares will rank equally in all respects with the existing class of quoted fully paid ordinary
shares on issue.
Record Date The record date for determining entitlements is 5:00pm (AWST) on Monday, 1 June 2015
Fractional entitlements Any fractional entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Non Renounceable The Rights Issue is non-renounceable. Accordingly, there will be no trading of the rights. If you
do not take up your Entitlement, it will lapse and will be dealt with as part of the shortfall.
Eligibility Only shareholders with registered addresses in Australia or New Zealand as at the record date
will be eligible to participate in the Rights Issue.
Fees
The Underwriter will receive a fee of 1.0% of the underwritten portion of the amount raised
under the Rights Issue.

No handling fees will be paid to brokers who lodge acceptances on behalf of security
holders.
