Dear Sir/Madam

APPENDIX 4C - QUARTERLY CASH FLOW REPORT

MEC Resources Ltd (ASX: MMR, ACN 113 900 020) (“MEC” or “the Company” ) is pleased to provide its Appendix 4C (Quarterly Cashflow Report) for the quarter ending 30 June 2018.

The Company is pleased to advise that the total funds raised from the Rights Issue announced on 10 May 2018 were $1,064,065. Further Shortfall Shares may be placed at the discretion of the Directors within a three month period after the close of the Rights Issue.

Funds raised from this issue will be used to support the Company’s investments. In particular, to support MEC investee Advent Energy in achieving the proposed well intervention program in EP386 in the onshore Bonaparte Basin, where Advent Energy is looking to commercialise its significant gas resources in this highly prospective basin. Further funds raised are expected to be used to support Advent Energy in the final costs incurred associated with acquisition of its 2D seismic survey in PEP 11 which was completed in April 2018. Funds will also be used for working capital purposes.

The Directors once again wish to thank all eligible shareholders for their continued support of MEC Resources and its activities.

In addition, the Company is pleased to report that with the financial assistance of MEC, Advent Energy Ltd (“ Advent ”) completed the acquisition of a 2D seismic survey in PEP11, as a work commitment for the petroleum title. During the last quarter MEC provided further loan funds to the amount $461,000 to its investee Advent to further the development of Advent’s assets. In addition, the Company estimates that another $35,000 of services has been provided through the provision of staff in this quarter

Management are continuing to minimise all costs of the Company with the operating costs of the Company slightly reduced during this quarter. A cost reduction plan previously developed by the Board continues to remain in place within the organisation to ensure costs are continually scrutinised and where possible reduced.

We welcome your questions and comments regarding the Company. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Company on 08 9 245 6187 or [email protected].
