----- Start of picture text ----- Retirement of Ken Severs----- End of picture text -----

Intec Ltd (ASX code: INL) advises that Mr Kenneth John Severs, aged 72, has retired from the Intec Board of Directors, effective upon completion of its most recent meeting on 25 February 2009.

Ken’s chemical engineering career spans 50 years in the mining and metals industries, during which era he was Group Metallurgical Executive of Rio Tinto Corporation from 1990 to 1999 and held senior executive positions with the Anglo American Group from 1964 to1988.

Ken has served Intec in a range of roles over the last 15 years, starting as Managing Director of Intec Copper Pty Ltd (representing Rio Tinto’s participation in the syndicated development of the Intec Copper Process) from 1995 to end-1998. He was then known affectionately by the Intec team as “the Twins”, because no single person could have worked the tireless hours that he contributed.

Ken was appointed as a Non-executive Director of Intec Ltd in March 2001 and became its Chairman later that year. Due to his U.K. residency, he stepped down from the position of Chairman in 2004, but continued to serve as the Company’s Non-executive Director, European-based representative, projectbased metallurgical consultant and ever financially supportive shareholder.

Ken’s personal contributions to Intec’s people have been manifold, but particularly included career mentoring of Intec’s professional staff, warm generosity of spirit to junior staff and a rigorous level of integrity, conscientiousness and intellect in the Board room.

Therefore, on behalf of all of the Directors and staff of Intec, and personally as a very close friend, I offer Ken our very best wishes for his happy and well deserved retirement, though we fully expect the benefit of his continuing counsel.

Given the current adverse financial climate and INL’s ongoing minimisation of overheads, Ken’s position as Non-executive Director will not be replaced at this time.

Yours faithfully

Intec Ltd
