Dear Shareholder

Montec International Limited Rights Issue

As announced to the ASX on 15 March 2007, Montec International Limited (Montec or Company) intends to raise capital via a pro-rata, renounceable 1 for 1 rights issue of ordinary shares at an issue price of \$0.05 per share. Attaching options to subscribe for ordinary shares with an exercise price of \$0.10 and expiry date of 30 June 2008 will also be issued for each share subscribed (Offer). The Company proposes to raise a total of approximately \$3.7 million from the issue of approximately 74.316.002 million new shares under the rights issue (assuming none of the current option holders exercise their options before the record date). A copy of the prospectus is available for your information on the Company's website www.montecinternational.com.au.

The prospectus was lodged with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission on 20 March 2007. Offers of shares and attaching options will be made in the prospectus. Shareholders eligible to participate in the Offer will need to fill out an Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany the prospectus.

After carefully considering the following in accordance with listing rule 7.7.1(a) of the Australian Stock Exchange (Listing Rules):

  • The number of holders in the countries where the Offer would be made; $\blacksquare$
  • The number and value of securities the shareholders resident outside of Australia and New Zealand would be entitled to under the Offer; and
  • The cost of complying with the legal requirements, and the requirements of regulatory authorities in countries other than Australia and New Zealand.

the directors decided that it would be unreasonable for Montec to make the offer to shareholders with registered addresses outside Australia and New Zealand. Accordingly, the Offer is not being made to shareholders with registered addresses outside of those countries.

Listing Rule 7.7.1(c) requires Montec to appoint a nominee to arrange for the sale of the entitlements of those shareholders who reside outside of the places where the Offer is being made and to account to them for the net proceeds of the sale.

In order to comply with Listing Rule 7.7.1(c) the directors have appointed Patersons Securities Limited (Patersons) as nominee to arrange for the sale of the entitlement that would have been offered to you had you had a registered address in Australia or New Zealand (Your Entitlement). Patersons will sell Your Entitlement for the best possible price. If Your Entitlement is sold, the Company will send the net proceeds of the sale to you at the address in Montec's register of shareholders. Patersons is unable to quarantee that it will be able to sell Your Entitlement

The contact details of Patersons are as follows:
