One Asia Resources Equity Raising

Lion has agreed to partly underwrite an upcoming rights issue for One Asia for $7.5 million, with this investment being settled in early September. One Asia’s rights issue is seeking to raise approximately $21 million at $0.65/share. Lion and other underwriters have committed to underwrite $15.5 million of this rights issue. For the purposes of Lion’s Net Tangible Asset (NTA) backing as at 31 August 2013 One Asia was valued at $0.75/share. Lion believes this valuation continues to be appropriate, reflecting that the rights issue pricing represents a small discount to this valuation as would normally be the case for a listed company, and noting that the rights issue is largely an internal raising from existing shareholders. In addition, One Asia is having outstanding exploration success at the Pani project where an initial JORC Resource of 1.88 Moz was announced on 13 June 2013.
