This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide certain information to you for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 3,705,036,500 Shares in issue.

Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 370,503,650 Shares, being 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the AGM, during the period ending on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable law to be held; and (iii) the revocation or variation of the authority given under this resolution by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase its Shares on the Stock Exchange. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or its earnings per share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Repurchases made pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate would be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Company’s memorandum of association and Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. Under the Cayman Islands laws, any repurchases by the Company may only be made out of profits of the Company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of the repurchase or, if so authorised by the Articles and subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, out of capital and, in the case of any premium payable on a repurchase, such premium must be provided for out of the profits of the Company or from sums standing to the credit of the share premium account of the Company or, if authorised by the Articles and subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, out of capital.

4. IMPACT OF REPURCHASES

There might be material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report for the period ended 31 December 2010) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as

– 13 –

would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which, in the opinion of the Board, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. SHARE PRICES

The following table shows the highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have been traded on the Stock Exchange during the period from 13 October 2010, being the date of the listing of the Shares on the Stock Exchange, to the Latest Practicable Date:

6. GENERAL

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates, has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will only exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

The Company has not been notified by any connected person that such a person has a present intention to sell, or has undertaken not to sell, any Shares to the Company, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

7. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If, as a result of a repurchase of Shares, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholders’ interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, the following persons are interested in 10% or more of the Shares of the Company:

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX II

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, then, (if the present shareholdings otherwise remain the same) the interests of the above persons in the Company would be increased respectively as shown above. Such increase would give rise to an obligation of MCS Mining Group Limited to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code but would not reduce the amount of Shares held by the public to less than 22.3% of the issued share capital of the Company, which is the minimum prescribed public float as accepted by the Stock Exchange pursuant to the waiver granted by the Stock Exchange to the Company in September 2010. The Directors have no intention to repurchase Shares to such an extent which would result in an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

Save as disclosed above, the Directors are not aware of any Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert, who may become obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any purchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.
