Letter from the Executive Chairman

11 March 2014

Dear Shareholder

The Directors of PPK Group Limited would like to invite you to participate in PPK's Share Purchase Plan ( SPP ).

Summary of the SPP

As announced to the ASX on 19 February 2014, the SPP is being made in conjunction with a placement of Shares at 75 cents per Share ( Placement ).

The Placement is being made in two tranches. The first tranche, comprising the issue of 3,285,320 Shares to professional or sophisticated investors to raise approximately $2.46 million, was completed on 7 March 2014. The second tranche comprises a further 2,094,912 Shares to raise approximately a further $1.57 million, which subject to shareholder approval at a meeting of shareholders to be held in mid April 2014, will be issued to the Directors (or their associated entities).

The SPP is capped at $2 million. If applications for New Shares exceed $2 million, PPK may in its discretion undertake a Scaleback to the extent and in the manner it sees fit. The SPP is not underwritten.

PPK is seeking to raise a combined amount of approximately $6.03 million (before costs) under the Placement and the SPP. These funds will be used to provide working capital for the COALTRAM mining services business to be acquired by PPK and to retire some short term debt associated with the acquisition of that business.

We invite you to read this document thoroughly in conjunction with the publically available information relating to PPK available from our website at www.ppkgroup.com.au , including the recently released half year report for the 6 months ended 31 December 2013, and the ASX website at www.asx.com.au (ASX: PPK).

SPP Details

Under the SPP, you can acquire up to $15,000 worth of New Shares (namely, 20,000 New Shares) without paying brokerage, commission or other transaction costs.

The Issue Price is 75 cents. This is the same as the placement price and represents a 8.09% discount to the average closing price of PPK's Shares on the ASX over the last 5 days on which sales of those shares were recorded prior to the announcement of the SPP on 19 February 2014.

The New Shares will be entitled to the fully franked interim dividend of 1.5 cents per Share for the half year ended 31 December 2013.

The Offer opens on 17 March 2014 and will remain open until 5:00pm (Sydney time) on Monday, 7 April 2014.

Participation in the Offer is optional and entirely voluntary. The Offer is only open to Eligible Shareholders who were registered as holders of Shares in PPK at 7:00pm (Sydney time) on 18 February 2014 and whose registered address is in Australia or New Zealand. The rights of Shareholders to participate in the SPP are not transferrable.

Full details of the Offer and how to participate are contained within this SPP document.
