As a result, the shareholders have established strong relationships with key external stakeholders and have gathered valuable experience leading companies to growth within the country The shareholders have decades of experience in obtaining permits across Indonesia for their various operating companies including Adaro (portfolio of coal mines), Tower Bersama (tower development in all 34 provinces) and Provident Agro (which had 40,000 Ha of palm oil plantations), demonstrating their ability to resolve community issues and work with national and local governments to develop projects across multiple industries Reputation for maintaining excellent corporate governance and reporting standards (in the case of Merdeka, voluntary adoption of ASX reporting requirements for Reserves and Resources, as well as quarterly reporting) has attracted quality investors globally in both debt and equity capital markets, achieving overall lower cost of funds and strong support The Indonesian Mining Law requires foreign shareholders to gradually divest portions of their shareholdings by making initial offers to the central Government of the Republic of Indonesia, regional or municipal governments. With the major shareholders being 100% Indonesian-incorporated or by citizenship, it minimizes the risk of divestment requirements Note: 1.

Prospective Geology Resources at Wetar are Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) deposits The deposits generally appear in clusters and as such it would not be surprising to discover more resources over time A geophysical survey was completed during 2019 with approximately 20 targets identified within the mining lease. VMS targets are generally easily identified with geophysics Historical regional exploration work done by Billiton shows many targets that are yet to be tested Successful 2019 exploration campaign defines new resource Exploration work has been very successful in finding and developing additional copper and pyrite resources: - - A significant new resource has been defined at Partolang Drilling after the cut-off date for the resource update has intercepted high grade mineralisation that is expected to further expand resources 19#20Wetar Strategic Review MERDEKA COPPER GOLD Copper production at Wetar will remain low while management's strategic review is completed and plan implemented in H2 2020 Historical Performance Strategic Review Conclusions The Wetar resource has delivered higher tonnes and higher grade than forecast since commencement of mining Despite achieving all important KPIs in 2019, the rate of copper leaching has slowed due to increased Total Dissolved Solids ("TDS") levels (predominantly ferrous) in the raffinate solution. At the same time, mining commenced at the high grade Lerokis pit which, due to its mineralogy, leaches poorly in such high ferrous raffinate Wetar Copper Production (tonnes) Wetar Strategic Review 17,071 16,777 2018 2019 Partolang ore is expected to leach with high TDS. Higher recoveries should be achieved with low TDS solutions Lerokis and Kali Kuning ore leaching is expected to improve significantly by lowering TDS in leach solutions 2020 A Neutralisation and Metals Precipitation Plant ("NMP") plant to reduce TDS levels is necessary to allow copper leaching to return to historical production levels. The capital estimate to develop the NMP plant is US$14 to 27 million over a 12-month period The development of Partolang is planned to proceed in Q3 2020. It is expected to significantly improve copper production despite high TDS. The capital associated with the development of Partolang and improving heap leach operations is expected to be US$9 to 12 million Wetar Ore is Intrinsically Valuable Optimisation of Wetar and Integration with AIM Project Management believes Wetar remains an extremely valuable asset because the ore contains high copper grades as well as good gold and silver grades. These metals are housed in very high-grade pyrite (FeS2) ore (typically 70-90%) which generally has high value if the sulphur can be converted to sulphuric acid and sold and the iron can be processed to a saleable product The current Wetar heap leaching process extracts a portion of the copper but none of the gold, silver, iron or sulphuric acid in a saleable form. It is estimated that the current process route delivers revenue of US$40-70 per tonne with a further possible US$200 per tonne of revenue recoverable via the AIM process A desktop study investigating Copper Tank Leaching ("CTL") as a viable alternative to heap leaching is nearing completion. The CTL process could potentially speed up the rate of copper leaching, provide more reliable and predictable recoveries and produce less iron and acid into solution. This process would also produce feedstock concentrate necessary for the AIM process rather than the AIM plant upgrading the pyrite feedstock (see next slide for AIM Project) A study on alternative power supply options to reduce power costs at Wetar has also commenced 20#21AIM Project Overview MERDEKA COPPER GOLD Initial plant to produce 1mtpa of sulphuric acid but expected to increase and demand could be 5 mtpa between IMIP and other sites Wetar (Maluku Province) IMIP (Morowali, Central Sulawesi Province) AIM Joint Venture (60% Merdeka) Merdeka Ship 700km to Process Feedstock Morowali 880 ktpa 1.
