1 Reliable Power for Mining industry in DRC

2 AGENDA 1) Power is critical at every stage of mine s life 2) Different power solution for mining companies in DRC 3) Interest of rental power solutions 4) Brief introduction to Aggreko 5) Case study 6) Q&A

3 Power is critical at every stage - During exploration - Cost and reliability of power is key for the investment decision - Construction and commissioning are impacted by power situation - To secure the full production and revenue from operations - Extend the operation and profitability

4 Different type of solutions for mining companies in Katanga 1) Rely on the grid 2) Import power 3) Become a self power producer 4) Rely on the expertise of a rental power company

5 Interest of Rental Power solutions at Every Stage of a Mine s Life Early Explorations Make even remote locations feasible with Aggreko s complete & reliable power solution Feasibly Stages Why buy when you can receive expert engineering solutions that improve cash flow and avoid capital expenditure? Construction & Commisioning Fast-track mine construction and commissioning with rapid, ontime delivery of temporary power Early Production Early power, early production, early cash flow Full Production Avoid downtime and maintain production targets with safe, continuous power Mine Expansion Commercially engineered solutions to support project feasibility and rapid expansion Ramp-down Extend the life time and profitability of your project with Aggreko s flexible solutions Closure & Rehabilitation Achieve optimum mine closure performance by minimising costs, fuel consumption, enviromental and social impact

6 Introduction to Aggreko The world s largest fleet of containerised generator sets Over 45 years global experience Strategically located international service centres Strong network of over 165 service centers in 38 countries 4,500 highly skilled and experienced personnel Aggreko plc is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a member of the FTSE- 100 index

7 Introduction to Aggreko Local entity established 50 MW of installed capacity in DRC 3 different customers ( MMG, Ruashi, Banro) Pure Rental Approach, or BOOT approach Proven capability in working synch with national grid and reduce fuel consumption

8 Aggreko Equipment in Action

9 Fuel Management Aggreko provides a full range of fuel management equipment including: High capacity fuel tanks Fuel filtration systems Highly accurate fuel meters Fuel heating systems for projects in cold climates

10 MMG Case study - MMG production was highly impacted by unreliable power from grid - In end 2012 Aggreko and MMG entered in formal agreement for a 12MW/33KV power plant in continuous and 4MW/33 KV in standby, all diesel powered - End of 2013 this agreement has been extended to a further 8 MW/33 KV diesel to reach a total of 24 MW capacity. The entire power is planned to run at least up to end This capacity can be ramp up of down depending of quality of power from grid MMG Kinsevere DRC production Report Energy delivery August 2014 PLANT NUMBER PLANT 1 PLANT 2 PLANT 3 POWER PER PLANT 0 TO 12 MWH 12 TO 16 MWH EQUIVALENT RUNNING HOURS NUMBER OF RUNNING HOURS 16 TO 24 MWH >24 MWH <14.47 PER HOUR >14.47 PER HOUR >24 MWH LUMP SUM EXTRA $ N/A Total Production MWh Fuel Consumption August 2014 Total Fuel (Liters) Fuel rate L/MWh

11 MMG: testimonial MMG request that Aggreko maintain a minimum of 5 generators on line in order to keep power to the site following a trip of the utility supply. Load shedding disconnects the main productive loads at these times and retains light & power to the plant. There is a significant SAFETY benefit in keeping the lights on after these outages. This also allows a restart of the plant very quickly after an outage. Aggreko power is used initially with a swap over to utility power as soon as it becomes available. The ability of the Aggreko station to synchronise additional generators immediately following an outage certainly allows us to ramp up the power draw and get back to producing copper. The primary benefit where production is impacted is any time that Aggreko operates more than these first 5 sets. All MWh produced by these extra generators will be utilised to produce copper. A conservative estimate of copper produced would be one tonne of copper for every 3MWh. The cash flow impact for Kinsevere would be approximately 50% of the LME price for this extra copper produced Donald Stevens Senior Electrical engineer MMG Kinsevere

12 Sum up, Q&A - Reliable power generation is critical for mining companies - Uncertainty on power quality and availability from grid and import - Issues of grid are temporary - You are expert in mining, not power producers - Aggreko is the world and DRC leader for this type of services Q&A
