Quarterly Activities Report: Appendix 4C March 2013

On behalf of Intec Ltd (ASX code: INL, Intec or the Company), I now attach the March 2013 Quarterly Report for Entities Admitted on the Basis of Commitments (Appendix 4C).

Operations Update

IRC Project

Stage 1 of the IRC Project involves the processing of 25,000tpa of zinc/lead bearing residues to generate Special High Grade zinc metal and lead metal together with other by-products as appropriate. The Final Milestone 1 Report, describing the results of the laboratory testing and development programme in Australia, was submitted to the client in August 2012. During the March 2013 Quarter, the Company completed an engineering design package for a pilot plant to be located near the project site. The pilot plant engineering design package forms a significant component of the second milestone for Stage 1 of the IRC Project with the other component being the construction of the pilot plant by a local service provider. The completion of the engineering design package largely completes Intec’s component of Milestone 2. Milestone 3 is the operation of the pilot plant.

The completed engineering design package will be delivered to the client upon receipt of an overdue payment due to Intec International Projects Pty Ltd (IIP, the 50/50 joint venture between Intec and Mr Reza Maghzian). Subsequent to the end of the Quarter, Mr Maghzian conducted extensive meetings with the client in Iran on behalf of IIP and set out the contractual difficulties arising from the long overdue payment. The Company is hopeful that the commercial aspects of the IRC Project contract will now proceed in a more predictable manner.

Other

During and subsequent to the March 2013 Quarter, the Company continued discussions with EPA Tasmania and the Hellyer site owners regarding the identification of suitable material to remediate the former EAF Dust storage site. The remediation work is expected to be completed during the current Quarter.

Subsequent to the end of the Quarter the Company has sold, for a nominal amount, a 1,800 tonne parcel of Zeehan slag that remained at Burnie following the completion of previous blending operations relating to the disposal of EAF Dust stockpiles.

Corporate

The Company’s total cash available at the end of the quarter was $3,674,000. During the March 2013 Quarter the Company received an R & D Tax Offset for an amount of $497,000 relating to eligible R & D expenditure undertaken during the 2011/12 financial year.

The Company continued to review corporate and asset acquisition opportunities and also options for the Burnie Research Facility.

As previously advised, the Company completed the sale of unmarketable parcels of shares. In total, 1,964 shareholders holding in aggregate 15,507,624 shares declined to retain their shareholdings. The aggregated shareholding was sold on-market on 18 January 2013. The proceeds from the sale have been distributed to relevant shareholders after deduction of certain costs of the sale in accordance with the Company’s Constitution.
