•Production Target Assumptions: The following are key assumptions used to achieve the ODP first year target of 5Mtpa of marketable coking coal. 1) In the eight months prior tocommencement of first year ODP production, a 23 million BCM waste removal programme to pre‐strip overburden to top of coal; 2) A strip ratio of 7.7:1 (BCM waste: tonne of coal); 3)Preferentially targeting the Upper Seam with a relatively high proportion of low ash coal; 4) Mining of 5.2Mt of ROM coal (at a 2% moisture on an as received basis) producing 5Mt ofsaleable coal. This is made up of 40% of washed coal and 60% of by‐pass coal meeting a 13% ash cut‐off; 5) Higher ash coal totalling 2.1Mt will be washed in a 300 tonne per hour washplant to be constructed at the Ovoot Project; and 6) Overall product yield of 90% to be achieved averaging 9% moisture for a less than 10% ash product. 7) The mine design is that usedto support the announced Coal Resource and Reserve update for the Ovoot Project (refer ASX announcement dated 31 July 2013). 8)All capital and operating costs are in 2013 dollars.•Development Timeline: Aspire’s development timeline for its Ovoot Project relies primarily on i) the provision of a rail concession and other approvals from the Government ofMongolia for Northern Railways to build, and operate the Northern Rail Line, connecting the Ovoot Project to the Trans‐Mongolian Railway at Erdenet; and ii) financing of the NorthernRail Line. The timing with respect to the grant of a rail concession is outside of the control of Aspire. Certain activities to further progress the Ovoot Project and Northern Rail Linedevelopment, and which will follow the grant of the rail concession licences, include the completion of detailed engineering work to support definitive financing negotiations. TheCompany’s development timeline to achieve first production by 2018 is indicative and assumes the grant of necessary Government licences, agreements and approvals in 2014.•Competent Persons Statement:In accordance with the Australian Securities Exchange requirements, the technical information contained in this announcement in relation to the JORC Compliant Coal Reserves andJORC Compliant Coal Resource for the Ovoot Coking Coal Project in Mongolia has been reviewed by Mr Ian De Klerk and Mr Kevin John Irving of Xstract Mining Consultants Pty Ltd.The Coal Resources documented in this release are stated in accordance with the guidelines set out in the JORC Code, 2004.

Nuurstei potential for road based operation (pre‐rail)

22

• Located close to infrastructure ~10km from Khuvsgul province capital of Moron

• ~ 317 km from railway (at Erdenet), along the proposed Northern Rail Line

• Sealed road completion between Erdenet and Moron expected 2015

• Land at Erdenet available to Aspire can act as a coal stockpile and train load out area

• Pre‐feasibility study to be considered dependant on results from NuursteiExploration programme

Infrastructure solution is the catalyst for future Ovoot development

23

1. The Ovoot project will produce a quality coking coal product required in Mongolia and export markets

2. Recent progressive legislative and policy changes shows GOM support of minerals sector and infrastructure developments

3. Significant infrastructure, trade and financing agreements between Mongolia, Russia and China will benefit the growth of resources industry in Mongolia

4. Over 2.5Bt of coal reserves (Ulug Khem Basin) to the north of Ovoot can also access the proposed Northern Rail Line

5. Northern Rail Line will be part of an international rail network

6. Capacity of Northern Rail Line could be increased to over 30mt capacity for this combined freight task for Mongolian and Russian freight

7. Aspire working with UBTZ to facilitate tie‐in of Northern Rail Line to existing rail and negotiate capacity allocation

8. Additional freight from Northern Rail Line is needed to meet planned UBTZ capacity upgrades

9. Non‐binding financing interest received for US$1.3bn to construct Northern Rail Line

Northern Rail Line is an important link for Russian/Chinese trade and for the future development of the Ovoot Coking Coal Project
