Commenting on the proposed Acquisition:
Indra Bakrie, proposed Chairman of Vallar, said:
"Today's announcement will bring together the world class assets of both Bumi and Berau to create an Indonesian global mining champion and the
only major Indonesian company to be listed on the London Stock Exchange. This will enhance our international profile, provide a currency and
platform for development in the region and puts us in a much stronger position to build on the organic growth that our combined assets already
provide. As a result, we expect to unlock significant value for shareholders."
Nathaniel Rothschild, proposed Co-Chairman of Vallar, said:

"We are delighted to have taken this important step to deliver on the strategy that we set out at the time of Vallar's IPO in identifying and acquiring
these attractive assets. The structure that we established through the IPO has enabled us to act quickly to secure these high quality assets, which we
believe will create value for our shareholders. I am also particularly pleased to be welcoming to the Board representatives of two such dynamic
Asian business families and look forward to developing our strategy with them over the coming years."
Ari Hudaya, proposed Group CEO of Vallar, said:
"It is a very exciting time to be a mining company in Indonesia. The fundamentals of the metals and mining sector are compelling, given the
strength of demand from China and India, and we are ideally located to capitalise on that growing demand. Indonesia itself also offers us many
exciting growth opportunities as power consumption continues to grow in this politically stable and economically strong country."

Vallar Plc ("Vallar" or the "Company") announces acquisition of holdings in PT Bumi Resources Tbk ("Bumi") and PT Berau Coal Energy Tbk
("Berau")

Creation of London-listed Indonesian coal champion
Introduction
Vallar is pleased to announce its intention to create a London-listed Indonesian resources champion through the proposed purchase of 25% of
Bumi and 75% of Berau for a combined consideration of approximately US$3.0 billion. The proposed Acquisition will create a diversified
international mining company built around a significant coal production base in Indonesia and a project pipeline of coal, base metals and other
minerals across Asia and Africa.
Together, Bumi and Berau will have 2010 calendar year expected production of 78Mt6
of coal and over 12bn tonnes of resources6.
The Company
intends to be the first major Indonesian focused company to achieve a Premium Listing on the Official List of the Financial Services Authority and
trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities and also, subject to applicable laws, will explore a potential listing on the
Indonesia Stock Exchange. The Company will be renamed Bumi Plc.
Vallar believes that the proposed Acquisition will create a vehicle with exposure to the fast growing Indonesian and pan-Asian region.
Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia and is the third fastest growing country in the G20, behind China and India. Coal production in
Indonesia has increased nearly 40% over the last five years and both domestic and export demand is expected to grow significantly. As the world's
largest exporter of thermal coal, Indonesia is ideally positioned to benefit from growing import demand from Asian economies, particularly China
and India. Indonesia's proximity to these key end markets facilitates reduced transportation costs for exporters relative to those in other major coal
exporting countries such as Australia and Colombia.
Through Bumi's base metals subsidiary, PT Bumi Resources Minerals Tbk ("BRM"), Vallar will also have exposure to interests in copper, gold, iron
ore, lead, molybdenum and zinc assets with the most significant of these being an effective 18% stake in the Batu Hijau copper/gold mine on the
Indonesian island of Sumbawa. BRM is currently seeking a listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange as part of its IPO.

The proposed Acquisition will be treated as a "reverse takeover" for the purposes of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, following the release of this
announcement, the Company understands that the Ordinary Shares will be suspended from trading on the Official List and on the London Stock
Exchange. The Company and its advisers intend to work closely with the FSA to provide the required information for trading in the Ordinary
Shares to re-commence at the earliest possible date. The Company will provide updates to the market as appropriate.

1. The Acquisition
The proposed Acquisition will consist of:
· Consideration of US$1,584 million paid by Vallar to Mutiara, a subsidiary of Recapital for 75% of Berau (at Rp.540 per Berau Share),
comprising:
- US$739 million cash consideration for 35% of Berau (US$639 million will be paid to Mutiara shortly after the signing of the Berau
Transaction with the balance being subject to the escrow arrangement described below); and
- 52.3 million new Vallar Shares, issued at a value of £10.00 per Vallar Share, in consideration for 40% of Berau
· Consideration of 90.1 million new Vallar Shares, issued at a value of £10.00 per Vallar Share, for 25% of Bumi from the Bakrie Group
(comprised of approximately 62.7 million new Ordinary Shares and 27.4 million new Suspended-voting Ordinary Shares).

8 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
The proposed Acquisition is expected to complete on or around 8 April 2011.
Purchase of 75% holding in Berau
Vallar's proposed purchase of 75% of Berau will trigger a Mandatory Cash Offer ("MCO") for the remaining issued share capital of Berau. The
MCO will be made on the same terms as Vallar's acquisition at Rp.540 per Berau Share. Mutiara has undertaken not to accept the MCO in respect
of those Berau Shares that it will continue to own following the closing of the Berau Transaction. The MCO will be triggered upon transfer of the
registered title to the Berau Shares to Vallar by Mutiara, which is expected to take place on or around 8 April 2011 after the expiry of BCE
Lock-up pursuant to which Mutiara is restricted from transferring its holding of Berau Shares until 7 April 2011. Prior to the release of the BCE
Lock-up, with effect from the Initial Berau Closing (which is expected to occur on or around 18 November 2010) Vallar will hold an indirect
economic and voting interest in Berau through arrangements entered into with Mutiara. Completion of the Berau Transaction will take place on, or
shortly after, the expiry of the BCE Lock-up
A portion of the Berau Shares proposed to be purchased will be acquired by the Vallar Subsidiary rather than Vallar itself and the Berau Shares
proposed to be purchased by Vallar are expected to be transferred to the Vallar Subsidiary in due course.
J.P. Morgan Cazenove acted as financial adviser to Vallar in relation to the Berau Transaction and provided a fairness opinion. Credit Suisse acted
as financial adviser to Berau in relation to the transaction.
Purchase of 25% holding in Bumi
Due to the size of its current shareholding in Bumi and the size of the interest it will acquire in Vallar following the closing of the Bumi Transaction,
the Bakrie Group has agreed that part of the consideration it receives will be in the form of Suspended-voting Ordinary Shares in order to ensure
that the Bakrie's Group's aggregate holding in Vallar will not exceed 29.9%. The Suspended-voting Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into
Ordinary Shares in the event of further equity issues by Vallar provided that following conversion the Bakrie Group's holding of Ordinary Shares
does not exceed 29.9% of the total number of issued Ordinary Shares. Bakrie Group will be the largest combined shareholder in Vallar with 43.0%7
of Vallar Shares and will have the right to nominate three directors including the position of Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and the Chief

Financial Officer and will continue to control the management, operations and policy of Bumi
7 Voting interest limited at 29.99% with balance held in Suspended-voting Ordinary Shares
The transfer by B&BR (one of the members of the Bakrie Group) of Bumi Shares to Vallar is required to be approved by shareholders of B&BR at
a shareholders' meeting which is expected to convene on or around 14 January 2011. The Bakrie family have irrevocably committed to exercise or
direct the exercise of a sufficient number of the voting rights attaching to B&BR shares to ensure that the required shareholders' resolution to be
put to B&BR's shareholders is passed at that shareholders' meeting. Completion of the Bumi Transaction will take place on, or shortly after, the
passing of the aforementioned shareholders' resolution.
Under the terms of the Bumi Transaction, the Bakrie Group has agreed to pay US$150 million if the Bumi Transaction fails to complete in
accordance with its terms as a result of their default. Of this US$150 million, US$100 million will be paid into an escrow account with J.P.Morgan
Chase.
Subject to market conditions, applicable laws and regulations, a potential exchange offer on terms to be confirmed, issuing new Ordinary Shares in
return for Bumi Shares, is being considered for the outstanding Bumi Shares not acquired by Vallar pursuant to the Acquisition.
J.P. Morgan Cazenove acted as financial adviser to Vallar in relation to the Bumi Transaction and provided a fairness opinion. Credit Suisse acted
as financial adviser to Bumi and the Bakrie Group in relation to the transaction.
The shareholding structure of the Company following the completion of the both the Transactions is expected to consist of:
Bakrie Group 43.0%

2. Background to and Reasons for the Acquisition
Creation of Indonesian national champion in natural resources
Through the proposed Acquisition the Company will gain an exposure to Indonesia's largest and fifth largest coal producers by production.
Together, Bumi and Berau are expected to produce 78Mt in calendar year 2010, rising significantly going forward with over 12bn tonnes of
resources between them. EBITDA of US$350m8
and US$1,431m9
was generated by Berau and Bumi over the last twelve months respectively.
Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia and the third fastest growing country in the G20, behind China and India. Coal production in
Indonesia has increased nearly 40% over the last five years and both domestic and export demand is expected to grow significantly going forward.
The Pacific seaborne thermal coal market has grown at over 9% CAGR in the past 23 years. As an exporter, Indonesia is ideally positioned to meet
the growing demand from Asian economies, particularly China and India. Indonesia is already the largest thermal coal exporter globally and its
proximity to these key end markets facilitates reduced transportation costs.
Vallar is therefore ideally located to capture this growth through its high quality assets and coastal locations. The combined entity is expected, via
its London listing, to have the financing capacity to pursue future growth opportunities through acquisitions of additional licenses and operations.

Opportunity to benefit from growing industrialisation of emerging markets
The Directors believe that the long-term global macroeconomic outlook for the global metals, mining and resources sector is positive. With limited
new supply of target commodities coming on-line against the background of growing demand from the industrialisation of emerging economies, the
Directors believe the fundamentals of this sector are compelling.
Strong demand, in particular from India and China, is expected to account for a major part of the international trade flow. Growth in Chinese
consumer demand is resulting in incremental power consumption and domestic supply is likely to be constrained by recent small mine shutdowns
and inadequate transportation networks. Indian coal imports could potentially reach approximately 100Mt by 2012 as the government looks to add
90GW of new generating capacity and is unable to tap into domestic supply due to inadequate infrastructure to exploit its coal reserves.
Indonesia is the largest thermal coal exporter globally and is ideally located to service both of these markets, with a significantly shorter average
freight distance than Australian or other non-Asian producers. For example, the freight cost differential between Indonesian and Australian
producers is approximately US$5.00 per tonne.
Attractive domestic growth opportunities, with low cost production advantage
Demand for Indonesian coal is being driven both by its Asian neighbours and the domestic market. Coal production in Indonesia has grown from
152Mt in 2005 to 208Mt in 2009. The Indonesian economy is strong and growing at the third fastest rate in the G20 behind China and India. It
currently has a population of 222m people, which is expected to grow by nearly 15% over the next decade. In order to ensure sufficient electricity
for this growing population, the Indonesian government has announced a 20,000MW capacity power programme to include the development of
hydroelectric, gas combined-cycle, geothermal and coal fired power plants. Power generation growth is forecast to increase above GDP growth
over the next five years.

12 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
Indonesia is also one of the lowest cost thermal coal producers globally, with a cash cost per tonne of US$33. It is the third lowest cost producer
behind South Africa and China, which puts it in a strong position through the cycle and gives it a clear competitive advantage over other
international producers.
Delivery on strategy set out at time of Vallar IPO
The potential of the proposed Acquisition represents the delivery of the Vallar strategy announced at the time of its IPO to seek to create
shareholder value through establishing a business with significant operations in the global metals, mining and resources sector with the intention of
increasing its scale and profitability by efficiently deploying capital to expand and enhance current operations and by recruiting and retaining
experienced and specialist industry personnel for key management positions.
The Founders established a flexible structure that would facilitate an acquisition through Vallar's ability to transact quickly and access the available
funds from existing resources or through an issue of new shares. The Group's structure has enabled it to secure these high quality assets, which the
Company believes will create value for Vallar's shareholders.
The Company intends to seek a Premium Listing on the Official List of the Financial Services Authority and trading on the London Stock
Exchange's main market for listed securities which will give it increased liquidity and visibility for any future equity raising, debt refinancing or
other capital markets transaction. The Company will also, subject to applicable laws, seek a potential listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.
It is the intention to combine the existing strong management teams of Bumi and Berau with key individuals from Vallar to provide local expertise
with detailed knowledge of the operating assets and international strategic experience. The proposed Acquisition also provides the opportunity for
Vallar to partner with two of the most dynamic Asian business families.
Strategy for Vallar

13 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
Management expect to create shareholder value through a two-pronged strategy:
First, the Company will seek to maximise the potential of the largest portfolio of coal producing assets in Indonesia. In order to do this,
management intends to deliver the strong organic growth profile from current operations and projects. In addition, efforts to create near-term
shareholder value will focus on identified efficiency gains, the potential to share marketing services and procurement and the possible refinancing
of existing borrowings. In the medium-term, portfolio optimisation should yield additional benefits.
Second, Vallar intends to leverage its combined management experience, industry relationships and access to capital in order to capture exciting
regional growth opportunities from China, India, Asia and beyond. The Company's ability to execute on this strategy will be supported by
partnership with two of the most dynamic Asian business families and will be facilitated by the acquisition currency of a London listing enabling
consolidation.
3. Board of Directors and Senior Management
The Board of Directors welcomes several new members who provide a powerful combination of local expertise and industry knowledge and
strategic relationships. These individuals will further enhance the already strong Board of Directors in an effort to maximise shareholder value.
Indra Bakrie will be appointed Chairman and Rosan Roeslani will be appointed a non Independent Non-Executive Director from 18 November
2010. Sir Julian Horn-Smith will be appointed as Deputy Chairman and Senior Independent Non-Executive Director.
In addition, Ari Hudaya and Andrew Beckham will be appointed to the Board as soon as reasonably practicable after the Nomination Committee of
the Board has identified appropriate candidates to join the Board in order to maintain a majority of Independent Non-Executive Directors on the
Board.
Following the completion of the proposed Acquisition, it is anticipated that the persons named below will sit on the Board of Directors:

Vallar was formed through an IPO in July 2010 to acquire to acquire a major company, business or asset that has significant operations in the global
metals, mining and resources sector.
Vallar PLC is admitted to the Official List and is listed on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities (ticker: VAA.L), and as at
the end of August 2010, has over US$1.0 billion in cash resources.
Vallar set out the following strategy at the time of its IPO.
"In recent years, significant consolidation in the sector has created a number of large complex conglomerates, which contain non-core operations
that are not operating to their full potential. In addition, the global recession together with a reduction in finance available on acceptable terms, has
meant a more conservative approach to financial leverage and an increased focus on portfolio optimisation. Our team, with its significant
experience and knowledge of the sector, intends to identify such situations, structure an acquisition and realise previously unrecognised value.
Increasing global urbanisation and industrialisation, is, in our view, likely to lead to increased demand for commodities worldwide. At the same
time, we believe that the supply of high-quality commodities may become more constricted; the recession has resulted in delays to capital
investment, and resources companies are having to turn to more complex topographies and geographies to develop new sources of production. We
see a number of mid-sized independent producers and emerging market-based owners which are looking to secure finance, and we believe that
there are opportunities to acquire controlling interests in partnership with existing owners and management, and bring much needed additional
investment, management and financial expertise to maximise the potential value."

Bumi is a leading natural resources group based in Indonesia, focusing primarily on the coal mining business. Bumi is currently listed on the
Indonesia Stock Exchange with a market capitalisation of approximately US$5.9bn as of 15 November 2010. Its subsidiaries, PT Kaltim Prima Coal
("KPC") and PT Arutmin Indonesia ("Arutmin"), which are its primary coal companies, engage in the surface open cut mining of high quality coal
from mines in Indonesia. Bumi is the largest thermal coal producer in Indonesia, producing approximately 24.9% of Indonesia's total coal
production in 2009, and the largest coal exporter in Indonesia. Bumi holds rights from the Indonesian Government to mine for coal in a concession
area of approximately 90,960 hectares in East Kalimantan until 2021 which is operated by KPC and in another concession area of approximately
70,153 hectares in South Kalimantan until 2019 which is operated by Arutmin. Under the terms of the concessions from the Indonesian
Government for KPC and Arutmin, the Government is entitled to 13.5% of coal production by KPC and Arutmin.
KPC and Arutmin have seven primary mines in commercial operation -the Sangatta and Bengalon mines operated by KPC and the Senakin, Satui,
Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines operated by Arutmin.
As of September 2008, Bumi had 2.9 billion tonnes of reserves with reserves and resources totalling 10.7 billion tonnes. In the years ended 31
December 2007, 2008 and 2009, KPC and Arutmin produced 54.2 million, 52.1 million and 57.5 million tonnes of coal at their mines. In the six
months ended June 2010, KPC and Arutmin produced 31.0 million tonnes of coal, compared to 25.1 million tonnes in the six months ended June
2009. Under its current mine plans, Bumi intends to expand its annual coal production capacity at KPC and Arutmin to approximately 61 million
tonnes in 2010 and approximately 70.0 million tonnes in 2011.
A substantial portion of the coal produced at the Sangatta mine is mined through two mining contractors, PT Thiess Contractors Indonesia and PT
Pamapersada Nusantara, with the remainder mined through Bumi's own operations. Bumi produces coal at the Bengalon site through a mining
contractor, PT Darma Henwa, which is an associated company of the Group. Bumi produces substantially all of the coal at the Senakin, Satui,
Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines through three mining contractors, Darma Henwa, Thiess, and PT Cipta Kridatama, with the remainder
mined through arrangements with smaller local mining contractors.
KPC's and Arutmin's mines are located in close proximity to their coal shipping facilities on the Kalimantan coast. KPC and Arutmin export a
substantial portion of the coal they produce to end-user power plants, steel plants and other industrial end users, primarily in China, Japan, Taiwan,
India, Europe and South Korea. KPC and Arutmin market and sell all of their coal to third party customers through marketing agents.

Primary Coal Mines
Bumi operates seven primary mines: the Sangatta and Bengalon mines at KPC and the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines at
Arutmin.
Sangatta Mine
The Sangatta mine is located near the town of Sangatta, Kalimantan. The Sangatta mine has two distinct coal deposits: the Sangatta deposit and the
Melawan deposit, and eight mining pits in operation. The Sangatta deposit produces bituminous coal, and the Melawan deposit produces
sub-bituminous coal. Bumi management believes that the Sangatta mine is one of the largest excavator and truck open cut surface mines in the
world. As measured by tonnes of overburden removed and coal mined at a single site, they believe that the Sangatta mine is the single largest
thermal coal operation in Indonesia and one of the single largest thermal coal operations in the world.
The coal deposits located at the Sangatta mine occur in the Balikpapan formation within the Kutai Basin of East Kalimantan. The deposits are
located approximately 20.0 kilometres from the East Kalimantan coast in low rainforest and were formed under geological conditions resulting in
largely uncontaminated organic deposits that were converted into thick, clean coal seams containing unusually low levels of ash.
KPC commenced operations at the Sangatta mine in January 1992. KPC extracts the coal from mining pits using excavators, bulldozers, graders
and other heavy equipment. Coal hauling trucks then transport the coal to the coal crushing plant owned by Mitratama which is located at the
Sangatta mine, marking the beginning of the coal chain for the Sangatta mine for the movement of the coal from the coal preparation and
processing area to the coal shipping terminal for the Sangatta mine on the East Kalimantan coast.
The coal chain at the Sangatta mine has three distinct stages:

23 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
· the coal preparation area, consisting of a ROM coal stockpile, a coal crushing and screening plant and a coal washing plant;
· a 13.2-kilometer overland belt conveyor to transport the coal from the coal preparation plants to the coal shipping terminal; and
· a coal shipping terminal, consisting of a stacker, a stacker-reclaimer, a shiploader and port stockpile facilities.
For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and for the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, KPC's coal production at
Sangatta mine was 30.6 million tonnes, 31.5 million tonnes, 33.4 million tonnes, 14.8 million tonnes and 17.1 million tonnes, respectively.
Bengalon Mine
In 1986, KPC identified approximately 60 coal seams at the Bengalon site at a location approximately 35.0 kilometres north of the Sangatta mine.
KPC began further exploration of the Bengalon site in 1991. As of June 30, 2008, each of the proved and probable recoverable reserves and
proved and probable marketable reserves within the Bengalon mine totalled an estimated 146 million tonnes (of which 145 million tonnes were
proved and 1 million tonne was probable). Although KPC undertook a mine feasibility study of the Bengalon site in 1996, the former owners of
KPC decided to defer Bengalon's development due to reduced demand for coal from Indonesian power producers after the onset of the Asian
financial crisis in 1997. In early 2004, after Bumi Resources' acquisition of KPC, Bumi undertook new feasibility studies to confirm the Bengalon
site's suitability for open pit, truck-and-shovel mining.
KPC's Bengalon mine development project involved commencement of mining operations, the development of a coal haulage road from the mining
pit to a barge port and construction and operation of a barge port on the Kalimantan coast. The first phase began in May 2004 with the appointment
of Darma Henwa to develop the Bengalon mine and to construct a coal haulage road. After beginning operations in late 2004, Darma Henwa
temporarily suspended operations in late 2004 when its then Australian parent company announced financial and operational difficulties and was
placed into receivership by its creditors. After being acquired by new shareholders from its previous Australian parent company in May 2005,
Darma Henwa resumed mining operations at the Bengalon mine.
The second phase of the Bengalon expansion project involved the construction of a barge port facility on the Kalimantan coast approximately 20.0
kilometres from the Bengalon mine. In December 2004, KPC appointed Mitratama as its contractor to build the barge loading facility and
appointed PT Inacia Perkasa Abadi to operate the port facility and barges for loading coal onto customers' ships. In late 2005, construction of the
coal processing and barging facility was completed. The coal processing and barging facility at the Bengalon mine has an annual handling capacity

of approximately 8.0 million tonnes of coal. On December 13, 2006, Mitratama became its wholly-owned subsidiary when Bumi Resources
exercised a purchase option held by it to acquire all of the shares of Mitratama. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six
months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, KPC's coal production at the Bengalon mine was 5.7 million tonnes, 6.0 million tonnes, 4.8 million
tonnes, 2.2 million tonnes and 2.4 million tonnes, respectively.
Senakin Mine
Arutmin commenced production at the Senakin mine in 1989. The Senakin mine lies in the Tanjung Formation and the coal seam follows an
anticline stretching approximately 40.0 kilometres from north to south, mining parallel to the southeast coast of Kalimantan approximately 14.0
kilometres inland. The Senakin mine comprises four distinct coal deposits: the Sangsang and Sepapah deposits on the west side of the anticline, and
the North Senakin and the East Senakin deposits on the east side. Arutmin has completed mining at the Sepapah, Sangsang and North Senakin
deposits, and is currently operating two mining pits at the East Senakin deposit. The Senakin mine produces a bituminous coal with high calorific
value. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal production at
the Senakin mine was 3.9 million tonnes, 3.7 million tonnes, 4.4 million tonnes, 3.0 million tonnes and 2.4 million tonnes, respectively.
Satui Mine
Arutmin commenced production at the Satui mine in 1991. The Satui mine lies south and west of the Senakin mine within the Tanjung Formation
on the southeastern slopes of the Meratus mountain range. The Satui seam stretches approximately 40.0 kilometres from northeast to southwest,
running parallel to the southeastern coast of Kalimantan, approximately 20.0 kilometres inland. The Satui mine comprises three deposits: the
Karuh, Satui-Kintap and Bukitbaru deposits. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30
June 2010, Arutmin's coal production at the Satui mine was 5.4 million tonnes, 3.9 million tonnes, 5.0 million tonnes, 2.2 million tonnes and 3.0
million tonnes, respectively.
Mulia Mine
Arutmin commenced production at the Mulia mine in 1999. Bumi markets the cleaner burning sub-bituminous coal produced at the Mulia mine
under the brand name "Ecocoal." The Mulia mine runs parallel to the Satui mine within the Tanjung Formation on the southeastern slopes of the

Meratus mountain range. The Mulia seam stretches approximately 40.0 kilometres from northeast to southwest, running parallel to the southeastern
Kalimantan coast, approximately 15.0 kilometres inland. The Mulia mine comprises two deposits: the Mulia and Jumbang deposits. The Mulia mine
shares the same coal chain and the Muara Satui barge port with the operations at the Asam Asam and Satui mines. Coal from the Mulia mine is
crushed at facilities adjacent to the Muara Satui barge port, but, due to its specifications and low ash content does not require washing before
loading. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal production
at the Mulia mine was 2.5 million tonnes, 3.8 million tonnes, 3.8 million tonnes, 1.5 million tonnes and 2.2 million tonnes, respectively.
Asam Asam Mine
Arutmin commenced production at the Asam Asam mine in 2004. Bumi markets the cleaner burning sub-bituminous coal produced at the Asam
Asam mine under the brand name "Ecocoal." The Asam Asam mine runs parallel to the Satui mine within the Tanjung Formation on the
southeastern slopes of the Meratus mountain range. The Asam Asam seam stretches approximately 47.0 kilometres from southwest to northeast,
running parallel to the southeastern Kalimantan coast, approximately 10.0 kilometres inland. The Asam Asam mine has one coal deposit. The Asam
Asam mine shares the same coal chain and the Muara Satui barge port with the operations at the Mulia and Satui mines. Coal from the Asam Asam
mine is crushed at facilities adjacent to the Muara Satui barge port, but, due to its specifications and low ash content does not require washing
before loading. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal
production at the Asam Asam mine was 1.7 million tonnes, 2.1 million tonnes, 7.3 million tonnes, 1.7 million tonnes and 2.7 million tonnes,
respectively.
Batulicin Mine
Bumi commenced production at the Batulicin mine in 2003. The Batulicin mine lies between the Senakin mine and the Satui Mulia and Asam Asam
mines within the Tanjung Formation, approximately 10.0 to 55.0 kilometres inland from the Kalimantan coast. The Batulicin mine comprises five
deposits: the Ata, Mereh, Mangkalapi, Saring and Sarongga deposits. Coal produced at the Batulicin mine is transported by truck from the
operating pits to the Batulicin barge port for shipment to the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal. The Batulicin mine produces bituminous coal. Like
Senakin and Satui coals, Batulicin coal is separated and stockpiled according to quality and then blended prior to barge loading. For the years
ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal production at the Batulicin mine
was 2.1 million tonnes, 1.9 million tonnes, 2.5 million tonnes, 1.4 million tonnes and 1.5 million tonnes, respectively.
At the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines, all contractors at Arutmin extract coal from mining pits using excavators,
http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com...
26 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
bulldozers, graders and other heavy equipment. Following extraction, coal hauling trucks transport the coal approximately 25.0 to 55.0 kilometres
to the mine's coal crushing plant, which marks the beginning of the coal chain for the movement of the coal from the coal preparation and
processing areas for these mines to the coal shipping terminal for those mines, the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, on Pulau Laut island off the
South Kalimantan coast. Bumi operates four coal chains for those mines: two for the Senakin mine, one shared by the Satui, Mulia and Asam Asam
mines and one for the Batulicin mine. Each coal chain has three distinct stages:
· a coal preparation area with a coal crushing and screening plant and a coal washing plant, which are located near each mine's barge ports to
enhance the efficiency of the coal preparation process;
· a system of custom-built, self-discharging barges to transport the coal from the coal preparation plants along the South Kalimantan coast to the
North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal; an
· the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, consisting of a stacker, a stacker-reclaimer, a shiploader and port facilities.
The North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, commissioned in early 1994, is an open seaport designed to process approximately 12.0 million tonnes of
coal per year. The terminal can accommodate cape size vessels of up to 140,000 dead weight tonnes in size and approximately 170 ships (each with
average dead weight tonne capacity of 70,000) and 1,600 barges (each with average dead weight tonne capacity of 75,000) per year. Coal from the
Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines is barged to the coal terminal and either loaded directly onto outbound ships or stored at the
stockpile yard. Operation of Bumi's own coal terminal for these mines has provided us with continuous access to a terminal facility for exporting
coal. To supplement its dedicated port facilities, Bumi has access to coal shipping terminals located at Pulau Laut Island to load our coal offshore
or to ship it directly to its customers using barges. At the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines, its ability to produce, process and
transport coal is limited by the capacity of the four coal chains. The combined handling capacity of the coal crushing plants for our coal chains at
these mines currently limit.
BRM
In addition to coal mining, Bumi has through its subsidiary, BRM, interests in various non-coal minerals mining businesses. BRM owns an effective
interest of 18.0% in PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara ("NNT"), which operates the Batu Hijau copper and gold mine located in Sumbawa, Indonesia.
BRM also owns interests in two gold, silver and copper mining concessions in Sulawesi, Indonesia, through its subsidiaries, PT Gorontalo Minerals
("Gorontalo Minerals") and PT Citra Palu Minerals ("Citra Palu Minerals"). BRM has a 60.0%-owned joint venture through Bumi Holdings SAS
("Bumi Mauritania") to study the feasibility of developing an iron ore mine in northwestern Mauritania, Africa and has a cooperation agreement
with Trinity Business Corporation, a Liberian company, for the exploration for minerals in Liberia, Africa. Through BRM's subsidiary, Herald

Berau
Overview
Berau Coal Energy is a holding company that indirectly owns 90% of PT Berau Coal ("Berau Coal"), the fifth largest coal producer in Indonesia in
terms of production volume in 2009, according to the Annual Coal Production Report dated December 2009 by Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and
Mineral Resources. Berau Coal engages in open-cut mining of coal in its concession area in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, where it holds coal mining
rights until April 26, 2025. Berau Coal operates three mining areas in Lati, Binungan and Sambarata, where reserves were estimated to be 346
million tons as of December 31, 2009, of which 146 million tons are of the proved category and 200 million tons are of the probable category,
according to Minarco-MineConsult ("MMC"). Berau Coal's concession area of approximately 118,400 hectares also contains three other reserve

locations, namely Kelai, Gurimbang and Punan.
Berau Coal supplies coal, both directly and through marketing agents, to customers in Indonesia and elsewhere in Asia. Its customers are mainly
utility companies and coal trading companies that purchase coal from it for resale. In recent years, Berau Coal has derived approximately 40% of
its total sales revenues from domestic sales and approximately 60% of its total sales revenues from international sales. Berau Coal exports to
customers in China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand.
Berau Coal produces thermal coal at its three mining locations and blends them in order to adjust the overall quality grade of the coal. It markets
the coal under four brand names-"Mahoni," "Mahoni-B," "Agathis" and "Sungkai," with calorific values ranging from 5,000 kcal/kg to 5,600
kcal/kg (on a "gross as received" basis) and appropriate levels of ash and sulfur for use in coal-fired power plants in Indonesia and many other
Asian countries. In 2007, 2008, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010, Berau Coal produced 11.8 million tons, 13.1 million tons, 14.3
million tons and 3.7 million tons of coal, respectively. As of July 1, 2010, Berau Coal had contracts with aggregate commitments to purchase coal
totalling 17.0 million tons in 2010, all of which was at an agreed price.
Berau Coal began producing coal commercially from the Lati and Binungan mines in 1995 and the Sambarata mine in 2001. Lati is the largest of its
three active mining areas and accounted for 56.8% of its production in 2009. Sambarata has the highest quality coal of all three mining areas in
terms of calorific value. The three mining areas are similar in their operations but are independent, with their own separate coal terminals and barge
lines. Berau Coal expects to commence commercial coal production in Gurimbang in 2012 and Kelai in 2013.
Berau Coal subcontracts all of its mining, barging and drilling and blasting operations, which allows it to minimize capital expenditures and working
capital requirements and focus on exploration, mine planning, supervision and sales and marketing. Berau Coal works closely with its two mining
contractors, PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama ("BUMA") and PT Saptaindra Sejati ("SIS"), each of which undertakes land clearing, overburden
removal, coal excavation, hauling activities and road maintenance. However, pursuant to Indonesia's new mineral and coal mining law and one of
its implementing regulations, by September 29, 2012, Berau Coal will need to amend its existing contracts with its mining contractors and conduct
its own coal mining and processing activities, as mining services companies will only be allowed to perform overburden removal and transportation
of coal in the mining process.
Berau Coal uses multiple contractors for each of its other operations, such as barging, coal quality analysis and transshipping.
Once the coal is mined, crushed and stockpiled, contractors barge the loads to a transhipment area at Muara Pantai in the Sulawesi
sea located approximately 50 kilometres to 100 kilometres from the ports at Lati, Suaran and Sambarata. At Muara Pantai, higher

energy coal from the Sambarata mine is blended with coal from the Lati or Binungan mines, depending on the quality grade
requirements of the shipment.
In 2007, 2008, 2009 and the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Berau Coal had sales of Rp. 3,445.0 billion, Rp. 6,110.2
billion, Rp. 8,318.6 billion and Rp. 6,966.7 billion, respectively, and net income of Rp. 25.6 billion, Rp. 170.1 billion, Rp. 853.7 billion
and Rp. 395.9 billion, respectively.

Exploration
Berau Coal conducts exploration activities at its existing mines on an ongoing basis. To support its planned production growth,
Berau Coal intends to continue exploration activities in its existing mines and has begun exploring other areas in its concession area
for additional coal reserves. Berau Coal has commenced exploration activities at the eastern area of Sambarata Block B, new seams
in Binungan Block 7, Binungan Block Parapatan and Binungan Block 8. In addition, Berau Coal has commenced exploration
activities at new seams in the northern part of the Lati mine and Binungan Block 9 in July 2009 and plans to commence exploration
of Sambarata Block BC in 2011. Berau Coal is targeting to complete all exploration activities of its concession area by 2011 as it
believes that it will be able to plan its mining operations more efficiently to achieve its target production if it has a complete
knowledge of the coal reserves in its concession area. In order to do this, Berau Coal has increased the manpower and drilling
equipment used in exploration activities and has engaged an additional drilling contractor.
Berau Coal's exploration activities include data collection, geological modelling and financial evaluation. Data collection is the
process of identifying the location, layout and quality of a coal deposit. It is based on field mapping, which is a survey of surface
features, and borehole drilling, the depth of which varies between deposits depending on the depth and configuration of the coal
seams. Field mapping and borehole drilling are typically supplemented by a geophysical survey.

33 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
To determine whether the commencement of mining is economically viable at a particular area, Berau Coal conducts a financial
evaluation. This evaluation considers coal price, demand for the product, capital investment, mining, processing and transportation
costs and defines the shape and size of the excavation. This is done by using manual pit designs and the Mincom MineScape pit
design software.
Berau Coal engages third party contractors for the provision of drilling services for its exploration activities. Drilling activities have
commenced at the eastern area of Sambarata Block B, new seams in Binungan Block 7, Binungan Block Parapatan, Binungan
Blocks 8 and 9. New seams at the northern part of the Lati mine have also been explored and drilling activities commenced in July
2009. Berau Coal has also engaged a third party contractor to conduct geophysical logging at the exploration areas.
In 2007, 2008, 2009 and the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Berau Coal incurred US$2.6 million, US$3.4 million, US$4.7
million and US$13.7 million, respectively, in exploration capital expenditures. Berau Coal has planned capital expenditures relating
to exploration activities of US$9.6 million in 2010.

I am also particularly pleased to be welcoming to the Board representatives of two such dynamic Asian business families and look forward to developing our strategy with them over the coming years." Ari Hudaya, proposed Group CEO of Vallar, said: "It is a very exciting time to be a mining company in Indonesia. The fundamentals of the metals and mining sector are compelling, given the strength of demand from China and India, and we are ideally located to capitalise on that growing demand. Indonesia itself also offers us many exciting growth opportunities as power consumption continues to grow in this politically stable and economically strong country."

VALLAR PLC 16 November 2010 Vallar Plc ("Vallar" or the "Company") announces acquisition of holdings in PT Bumi Resources Tbk ("Bumi") and PT Berau Coal Energy Tbk ("Berau") http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 6 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
  • 7. Creation of London-listed Indonesian coal champion Introduction Vallar is pleased to announce its intention to create a London-listed Indonesian resources champion through the proposed purchase of 25% of Bumi and 75% of Berau for a combined consideration of approximately US$3.0 billion. The proposed Acquisition will create a diversified international mining company built around a significant coal production base in Indonesia and a project pipeline of coal, base metals and other minerals across Asia and Africa. Together, Bumi and Berau will have 2010 calendar year expected production of 78Mt6 of coal and over 12bn tonnes of resources6. The Company intends to be the first major Indonesian focused company to achieve a Premium Listing on the Official List of the Financial Services Authority and trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities and also, subject to applicable laws, will explore a potential listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The Company will be renamed Bumi Plc. Vallar believes that the proposed Acquisition will create a vehicle with exposure to the fast growing Indonesian and pan-Asian region. Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia and is the third fastest growing country in the G20, behind China and India. Coal production in Indonesia has increased nearly 40% over the last five years and both domestic and export demand is expected to grow significantly. As the world's largest exporter of thermal coal, Indonesia is ideally positioned to benefit from growing import demand from Asian economies, particularly China and India. Indonesia's proximity to these key end markets facilitates reduced transportation costs for exporters relative to those in other major coal exporting countries such as Australia and Colombia. Through Bumi's base metals subsidiary, PT Bumi Resources Minerals Tbk ("BRM"), Vallar will also have exposure to interests in copper, gold, iron ore, lead, molybdenum and zinc assets with the most significant of these being an effective 18% stake in the Batu Hijau copper/gold mine on the Indonesian island of Sumbawa. BRM is currently seeking a listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange as part of its IPO. http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 7 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
  • 8. The proposed Acquisition will be treated as a "reverse takeover" for the purposes of the Listing Rules. Accordingly, following the release of this announcement, the Company understands that the Ordinary Shares will be suspended from trading on the Official List and on the London Stock Exchange. The Company and its advisers intend to work closely with the FSA to provide the required information for trading in the Ordinary Shares to re-commence at the earliest possible date. The Company will provide updates to the market as appropriate. 6 Aggregate of 100% of Berau and Bumi 1. The Acquisition The proposed Acquisition will consist of: · Consideration of US$1,584 million paid by Vallar to Mutiara, a subsidiary of Recapital for 75% of Berau (at Rp.540 per Berau Share), comprising: - US$739 million cash consideration for 35% of Berau (US$639 million will be paid to Mutiara shortly after the signing of the Berau Transaction with the balance being subject to the escrow arrangement described below); and - 52.3 million new Vallar Shares, issued at a value of £10.00 per Vallar Share, in consideration for 40% of Berau · Consideration of 90.1 million new Vallar Shares, issued at a value of £10.00 per Vallar Share, for 25% of Bumi from the Bakrie Group (comprised of approximately 62.7 million new Ordinary Shares and 27.4 million new Suspended-voting Ordinary Shares). http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 8 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
  • 9. The proposed Acquisition is expected to complete on or around 8 April 2011. Purchase of 75% holding in Berau Vallar's proposed purchase of 75% of Berau will trigger a Mandatory Cash Offer ("MCO") for the remaining issued share capital of Berau. The MCO will be made on the same terms as Vallar's acquisition at Rp.540 per Berau Share. Mutiara has undertaken not to accept the MCO in respect of those Berau Shares that it will continue to own following the closing of the Berau Transaction. The MCO will be triggered upon transfer of the registered title to the Berau Shares to Vallar by Mutiara, which is expected to take place on or around 8 April 2011 after the expiry of BCE Lock-up pursuant to which Mutiara is restricted from transferring its holding of Berau Shares until 7 April 2011. Prior to the release of the BCE Lock-up, with effect from the Initial Berau Closing (which is expected to occur on or around 18 November 2010) Vallar will hold an indirect economic and voting interest in Berau through arrangements entered into with Mutiara. Completion of the Berau Transaction will take place on, or shortly after, the expiry of the BCE Lock-up A portion of the Berau Shares proposed to be purchased will be acquired by the Vallar Subsidiary rather than Vallar itself and the Berau Shares proposed to be purchased by Vallar are expected to be transferred to the Vallar Subsidiary in due course.

Background to and Reasons for the Acquisition Creation of Indonesian national champion in natural resources Through the proposed Acquisition the Company will gain an exposure to Indonesia's largest and fifth largest coal producers by production. Together, Bumi and Berau are expected to produce 78Mt in calendar year 2010, rising significantly going forward with over 12bn tonnes of resources between them. EBITDA of US$350m8 and US$1,431m9 was generated by Berau and Bumi over the last twelve months respectively. Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia and the third fastest growing country in the G20, behind China and India. Coal production in Indonesia has increased nearly 40% over the last five years and both domestic and export demand is expected to grow significantly going forward. The Pacific seaborne thermal coal market has grown at over 9% CAGR in the past 23 years. As an exporter, Indonesia is ideally positioned to meet the growing demand from Asian economies, particularly China and India. Indonesia is already the largest thermal coal exporter globally and its proximity to these key end markets facilitates reduced transportation costs. Vallar is therefore ideally located to capture this growth through its high quality assets and coastal locations. The combined entity is expected, via its London listing, to have the financing capacity to pursue future growth opportunities through acquisitions of additional licenses and operations. http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 11 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM

With limited new supply of target commodities coming on-line against the background of growing demand from the industrialisation of emerging economies, the Directors believe the fundamentals of this sector are compelling. Strong demand, in particular from India and China, is expected to account for a major part of the international trade flow. Growth in Chinese consumer demand is resulting in incremental power consumption and domestic supply is likely to be constrained by recent small mine shutdowns and inadequate transportation networks. Indian coal imports could potentially reach approximately 100Mt by 2012 as the government looks to add 90GW of new generating capacity and is unable to tap into domestic supply due to inadequate infrastructure to exploit its coal reserves. Indonesia is the largest thermal coal exporter globally and is ideally located to service both of these markets, with a significantly shorter average freight distance than Australian or other non-Asian producers. For example, the freight cost differential between Indonesian and Australian producers is approximately US$5.00 per tonne. Attractive domestic growth opportunities, with low cost production advantage Demand for Indonesian coal is being driven both by its Asian neighbours and the domestic market. Coal production in Indonesia has grown from 152Mt in 2005 to 208Mt in 2009. The Indonesian economy is strong and growing at the third fastest rate in the G20 behind China and India. It currently has a population of 222m people, which is expected to grow by nearly 15% over the next decade. In order to ensure sufficient electricity for this growing population, the Indonesian government has announced a 20,000MW capacity power programme to include the development of hydroelectric, gas combined-cycle, geothermal and coal fired power plants. Power generation growth is forecast to increase above GDP growth over the next five years. http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 12 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
  • 13. Indonesia is also one of the lowest cost thermal coal producers globally, with a cash cost per tonne of US$33. It is the third lowest cost producer behind South Africa and China, which puts it in a strong position through the cycle and gives it a clear competitive advantage over other international producers. Delivery on strategy set out at time of Vallar IPO The potential of the proposed Acquisition represents the delivery of the Vallar strategy announced at the time of its IPO to seek to create shareholder value through establishing a business with significant operations in the global metals, mining and resources sector with the intention of increasing its scale and profitability by efficiently deploying capital to expand and enhance current operations and by recruiting and retaining experienced and specialist industry personnel for key management positions. The Founders established a flexible structure that would facilitate an acquisition through Vallar's ability to transact quickly and access the available funds from existing resources or through an issue of new shares. The Group's structure has enabled it to secure these high quality assets, which the Company believes will create value for Vallar's shareholders. The Company intends to seek a Premium Listing on the Official List of the Financial Services Authority and trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities which will give it increased liquidity and visibility for any future equity raising, debt refinancing or other capital markets transaction. The Company will also, subject to applicable laws, seek a potential listing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. It is the intention to combine the existing strong management teams of Bumi and Berau with key individuals from Vallar to provide local expertise with detailed knowledge of the operating assets and international strategic experience. The proposed Acquisition also provides the opportunity for Vallar to partner with two of the most dynamic Asian business families.

  • 14. Management expect to create shareholder value through a two-pronged strategy: First, the Company will seek to maximise the potential of the largest portfolio of coal producing assets in Indonesia. In order to do this, management intends to deliver the strong organic growth profile from current operations and projects. In addition, efforts to create near-term shareholder value will focus on identified efficiency gains, the potential to share marketing services and procurement and the possible refinancing of existing borrowings. In the medium-term, portfolio optimisation should yield additional benefits. Second, Vallar intends to leverage its combined management experience, industry relationships and access to capital in order to capture exciting regional growth opportunities from China, India, Asia and beyond. The Company's ability to execute on this strategy will be supported by partnership with two of the most dynamic Asian business families and will be facilitated by the acquisition currency of a London listing enabling consolidation. 3.

  • 19. Vallar was formed through an IPO in July 2010 to acquire to acquire a major company, business or asset that has significant operations in the global metals, mining and resources sector. Vallar PLC is admitted to the Official List and is listed on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities (ticker: VAA.L), and as at the end of August 2010, has over US$1.0 billion in cash resources. Vallar set out the following strategy at the time of its IPO. "In recent years, significant consolidation in the sector has created a number of large complex conglomerates, which contain non-core operations that are not operating to their full potential. In addition, the global recession together with a reduction in finance available on acceptable terms, has meant a more conservative approach to financial leverage and an increased focus on portfolio optimisation. Our team, with its significant experience and knowledge of the sector, intends to identify such situations, structure an acquisition and realise previously unrecognised value. Increasing global urbanisation and industrialisation, is, in our view, likely to lead to increased demand for commodities worldwide. At the same time, we believe that the supply of high-quality commodities may become more constricted; the recession has resulted in delays to capital investment, and resources companies are having to turn to more complex topographies and geographies to develop new sources of production. We see a number of mid-sized independent producers and emerging market-based owners which are looking to secure finance, and we believe that there are opportunities to acquire controlling interests in partnership with existing owners and management, and bring much needed additional investment, management and financial expertise to maximise the potential value." 5.

  • 20. Bumi is a leading natural resources group based in Indonesia, focusing primarily on the coal mining business. Bumi is currently listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange with a market capitalisation of approximately US$5.9bn as of 15 November 2010. Its subsidiaries, PT Kaltim Prima Coal ("KPC") and PT Arutmin Indonesia ("Arutmin"), which are its primary coal companies, engage in the surface open cut mining of high quality coal from mines in Indonesia. Bumi is the largest thermal coal producer in Indonesia, producing approximately 24.9% of Indonesia's total coal production in 2009, and the largest coal exporter in Indonesia. Bumi holds rights from the Indonesian Government to mine for coal in a concession area of approximately 90,960 hectares in East Kalimantan until 2021 which is operated by KPC and in another concession area of approximately 70,153 hectares in South Kalimantan until 2019 which is operated by Arutmin. Under the terms of the concessions from the Indonesian Government for KPC and Arutmin, the Government is entitled to 13.5% of coal production by KPC and Arutmin. KPC and Arutmin have seven primary mines in commercial operation -the Sangatta and Bengalon mines operated by KPC and the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines operated by Arutmin. As of September 2008, Bumi had 2.9 billion tonnes of reserves with reserves and resources totalling 10.7 billion tonnes. In the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008 and 2009, KPC and Arutmin produced 54.2 million, 52.1 million and 57.5 million tonnes of coal at their mines. In the six months ended June 2010, KPC and Arutmin produced 31.0 million tonnes of coal, compared to 25.1 million tonnes in the six months ended June 2009. Under its current mine plans, Bumi intends to expand its annual coal production capacity at KPC and Arutmin to approximately 61 million tonnes in 2010 and approximately 70.0 million tonnes in 2011. A substantial portion of the coal produced at the Sangatta mine is mined through two mining contractors, PT Thiess Contractors Indonesia and PT Pamapersada Nusantara, with the remainder mined through Bumi's own operations. Bumi produces coal at the Bengalon site through a mining contractor, PT Darma Henwa, which is an associated company of the Group. Bumi produces substantially all of the coal at the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines through three mining contractors, Darma Henwa, Thiess, and PT Cipta Kridatama, with the remainder mined through arrangements with smaller local mining contractors. KPC's and Arutmin's mines are located in close proximity to their coal shipping facilities on the Kalimantan coast. KPC and Arutmin export a substantial portion of the coal they produce to end-user power plants, steel plants and other industrial end users, primarily in China, Japan, Taiwan, India, Europe and South Korea. KPC and Arutmin market and sell all of their coal to third party customers through marketing agents. http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 20 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM

  • 23. Primary Coal Mines Bumi operates seven primary mines: the Sangatta and Bengalon mines at KPC and the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines at Arutmin. Sangatta Mine The Sangatta mine is located near the town of Sangatta, Kalimantan. The Sangatta mine has two distinct coal deposits: the Sangatta deposit and the Melawan deposit, and eight mining pits in operation. The Sangatta deposit produces bituminous coal, and the Melawan deposit produces sub-bituminous coal. Bumi management believes that the Sangatta mine is one of the largest excavator and truck open cut surface mines in the world. As measured by tonnes of overburden removed and coal mined at a single site, they believe that the Sangatta mine is the single largest thermal coal operation in Indonesia and one of the single largest thermal coal operations in the world. The coal deposits located at the Sangatta mine occur in the Balikpapan formation within the Kutai Basin of East Kalimantan. The deposits are located approximately 20.0 kilometres from the East Kalimantan coast in low rainforest and were formed under geological conditions resulting in largely uncontaminated organic deposits that were converted into thick, clean coal seams containing unusually low levels of ash. KPC commenced operations at the Sangatta mine in January 1992. KPC extracts the coal from mining pits using excavators, bulldozers, graders and other heavy equipment. Coal hauling trucks then transport the coal to the coal crushing plant owned by Mitratama which is located at the Sangatta mine, marking the beginning of the coal chain for the Sangatta mine for the movement of the coal from the coal preparation and processing area to the coal shipping terminal for the Sangatta mine on the East Kalimantan coast. The coal chain at the Sangatta mine has three distinct stages: http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 23 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM

For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and for the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, KPC's coal production at Sangatta mine was 30.6 million tonnes, 31.5 million tonnes, 33.4 million tonnes, 14.8 million tonnes and 17.1 million tonnes, respectively. Bengalon Mine In 1986, KPC identified approximately 60 coal seams at the Bengalon site at a location approximately 35.0 kilometres north of the Sangatta mine. KPC began further exploration of the Bengalon site in 1991. As of June 30, 2008, each of the proved and probable recoverable reserves and proved and probable marketable reserves within the Bengalon mine totalled an estimated 146 million tonnes (of which 145 million tonnes were proved and 1 million tonne was probable). Although KPC undertook a mine feasibility study of the Bengalon site in 1996, the former owners of KPC decided to defer Bengalon's development due to reduced demand for coal from Indonesian power producers after the onset of the Asian financial crisis in 1997. In early 2004, after Bumi Resources' acquisition of KPC, Bumi undertook new feasibility studies to confirm the Bengalon site's suitability for open pit, truck-and-shovel mining. KPC's Bengalon mine development project involved commencement of mining operations, the development of a coal haulage road from the mining pit to a barge port and construction and operation of a barge port on the Kalimantan coast. The first phase began in May 2004 with the appointment of Darma Henwa to develop the Bengalon mine and to construct a coal haulage road. After beginning operations in late 2004, Darma Henwa temporarily suspended operations in late 2004 when its then Australian parent company announced financial and operational difficulties and was placed into receivership by its creditors. After being acquired by new shareholders from its previous Australian parent company in May 2005, Darma Henwa resumed mining operations at the Bengalon mine. The second phase of the Bengalon expansion project involved the construction of a barge port facility on the Kalimantan coast approximately 20.0 kilometres from the Bengalon mine. In December 2004, KPC appointed Mitratama as its contractor to build the barge loading facility and appointed PT Inacia Perkasa Abadi to operate the port facility and barges for loading coal onto customers' ships. In late 2005, construction of the coal processing and barging facility was completed. The coal processing and barging facility at the Bengalon mine has an annual handling capacity http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 24 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM

On December 13, 2006, Mitratama became its wholly-owned subsidiary when Bumi Resources exercised a purchase option held by it to acquire all of the shares of Mitratama. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, KPC's coal production at the Bengalon mine was 5.7 million tonnes, 6.0 million tonnes, 4.8 million tonnes, 2.2 million tonnes and 2.4 million tonnes, respectively. Senakin Mine Arutmin commenced production at the Senakin mine in 1989. The Senakin mine lies in the Tanjung Formation and the coal seam follows an anticline stretching approximately 40.0 kilometres from north to south, mining parallel to the southeast coast of Kalimantan approximately 14.0 kilometres inland. The Senakin mine comprises four distinct coal deposits: the Sangsang and Sepapah deposits on the west side of the anticline, and the North Senakin and the East Senakin deposits on the east side. Arutmin has completed mining at the Sepapah, Sangsang and North Senakin deposits, and is currently operating two mining pits at the East Senakin deposit. The Senakin mine produces a bituminous coal with high calorific value.

The Mulia seam stretches approximately 40.0 kilometres from northeast to southwest, running parallel to the southeastern Kalimantan coast, approximately 15.0 kilometres inland. The Mulia mine comprises two deposits: the Mulia and Jumbang deposits. The Mulia mine shares the same coal chain and the Muara Satui barge port with the operations at the Asam Asam and Satui mines. Coal from the Mulia mine is crushed at facilities adjacent to the Muara Satui barge port, but, due to its specifications and low ash content does not require washing before loading. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal production at the Mulia mine was 2.5 million tonnes, 3.8 million tonnes, 3.8 million tonnes, 1.5 million tonnes and 2.2 million tonnes, respectively. Asam Asam Mine Arutmin commenced production at the Asam Asam mine in 2004. Bumi markets the cleaner burning sub-bituminous coal produced at the Asam Asam mine under the brand name "Ecocoal." The Asam Asam mine runs parallel to the Satui mine within the Tanjung Formation on the southeastern slopes of the Meratus mountain range. The Asam Asam seam stretches approximately 47.0 kilometres from southwest to northeast, running parallel to the southeastern Kalimantan coast, approximately 10.0 kilometres inland. The Asam Asam mine has one coal deposit. The Asam Asam mine shares the same coal chain and the Muara Satui barge port with the operations at the Mulia and Satui mines. Coal from the Asam Asam mine is crushed at facilities adjacent to the Muara Satui barge port, but, due to its specifications and low ash content does not require washing before loading. For the years ended 31 December 2007, 2008, 2009 and the six months ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010, Arutmin's coal production at the Asam Asam mine was 1.7 million tonnes, 2.1 million tonnes, 7.3 million tonnes, 1.7 million tonnes and 2.7 million tonnes, respectively. Batulicin Mine Bumi commenced production at the Batulicin mine in 2003.

Following extraction, coal hauling trucks transport the coal approximately 25.0 to 55.0 kilometres to the mine's coal crushing plant, which marks the beginning of the coal chain for the movement of the coal from the coal preparation and processing areas for these mines to the coal shipping terminal for those mines, the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, on Pulau Laut island off the South Kalimantan coast. Bumi operates four coal chains for those mines: two for the Senakin mine, one shared by the Satui, Mulia and Asam Asam mines and one for the Batulicin mine. Each coal chain has three distinct stages: · a coal preparation area with a coal crushing and screening plant and a coal washing plant, which are located near each mine's barge ports to enhance the efficiency of the coal preparation process; · a system of custom-built, self-discharging barges to transport the coal from the coal preparation plants along the South Kalimantan coast to the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal; an · the North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, consisting of a stacker, a stacker-reclaimer, a shiploader and port facilities. The North Pulau Laut Coal Terminal, commissioned in early 1994, is an open seaport designed to process approximately 12.0 million tonnes of coal per year. The terminal can accommodate cape size vessels of up to 140,000 dead weight tonnes in size and approximately 170 ships (each with average dead weight tonne capacity of 70,000) and 1,600 barges (each with average dead weight tonne capacity of 75,000) per year. Coal from the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines is barged to the coal terminal and either loaded directly onto outbound ships or stored at the stockpile yard. Operation of Bumi's own coal terminal for these mines has provided us with continuous access to a terminal facility for exporting coal. To supplement its dedicated port facilities, Bumi has access to coal shipping terminals located at Pulau Laut Island to load our coal offshore or to ship it directly to its customers using barges. At the Senakin, Satui, Mulia, Asam Asam and Batulicin mines, its ability to produce, process and transport coal is limited by the capacity of the four coal chains. The combined handling capacity of the coal crushing plants for our coal chains at these mines currently limit. BRM In addition to coal mining, Bumi has through its subsidiary, BRM, interests in various non-coal minerals mining businesses. BRM owns an effective interest of 18.0% in PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara ("NNT"), which operates the Batu Hijau copper and gold mine located in Sumbawa, Indonesia. BRM also owns interests in two gold, silver and copper mining concessions in Sulawesi, Indonesia, through its subsidiaries, PT Gorontalo Minerals ("Gorontalo Minerals") and PT Citra Palu Minerals ("Citra Palu Minerals").

Berau Overview Berau Coal Energy is a holding company that indirectly owns 90% of PT Berau Coal ("Berau Coal"), the fifth largest coal producer in Indonesia in terms of production volume in 2009, according to the Annual Coal Production Report dated December 2009 by Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. Berau Coal engages in open-cut mining of coal in its concession area in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, where it holds coal mining rights until April 26, 2025. Berau Coal operates three mining areas in Lati, Binungan and Sambarata, where reserves were estimated to be 346 million tons as of December 31, 2009, of which 146 million tons are of the proved category and 200 million tons are of the probable category, according to Minarco-MineConsult ("MMC").

Its customers are mainly utility companies and coal trading companies that purchase coal from it for resale. In recent years, Berau Coal has derived approximately 40% of its total sales revenues from domestic sales and approximately 60% of its total sales revenues from international sales. Berau Coal exports to customers in China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. Berau Coal produces thermal coal at its three mining locations and blends them in order to adjust the overall quality grade of the coal. It markets the coal under four brand names-"Mahoni," "Mahoni-B," "Agathis" and "Sungkai," with calorific values ranging from 5,000 kcal/kg to 5,600 kcal/kg (on a "gross as received" basis) and appropriate levels of ash and sulfur for use in coal-fired power plants in Indonesia and many other Asian countries. In 2007, 2008, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010, Berau Coal produced 11.8 million tons, 13.1 million tons, 14.3 million tons and 3.7 million tons of coal, respectively. As of July 1, 2010, Berau Coal had contracts with aggregate commitments to purchase coal totalling 17.0 million tons in 2010, all of which was at an agreed price. Berau Coal began producing coal commercially from the Lati and Binungan mines in 1995 and the Sambarata mine in 2001. Lati is the largest of its three active mining areas and accounted for 56.8% of its production in 2009. Sambarata has the highest quality coal of all three mining areas in terms of calorific value. The three mining areas are similar in their operations but are independent, with their own separate coal terminals and barge lines. Berau Coal expects to commence commercial coal production in Gurimbang in 2012 and Kelai in 2013. Berau Coal subcontracts all of its mining, barging and drilling and blasting operations, which allows it to minimize capital expenditures and working capital requirements and focus on exploration, mine planning, supervision and sales and marketing. Berau Coal works closely with its two mining contractors, PT Bukit Makmur Mandiri Utama ("BUMA") and PT Saptaindra Sejati ("SIS"), each of which undertakes land clearing, overburden removal, coal excavation, hauling activities and road maintenance. However, pursuant to Indonesia's new mineral and coal mining law and one of its implementing regulations, by September 29, 2012, Berau Coal will need to amend its existing contracts with its mining contractors and conduct its own coal mining and processing activities, as mining services companies will only be allowed to perform overburden removal and transportation of coal in the mining process. Berau Coal uses multiple contractors for each of its other operations, such as barging, coal quality analysis and transshipping. Once the coal is mined, crushed and stockpiled, contractors barge the loads to a transhipment area at Muara Pantai in the Sulawesi sea located approximately 50 kilometres to 100 kilometres from the ports at Lati, Suaran and Sambarata.

Berau Coal has commenced exploration activities at the eastern area of Sambarata Block B, new seams in Binungan Block 7, Binungan Block Parapatan and Binungan Block 8. In addition, Berau Coal has commenced exploration activities at new seams in the northern part of the Lati mine and Binungan Block 9 in July 2009 and plans to commence exploration of Sambarata Block BC in 2011. Berau Coal is targeting to complete all exploration activities of its concession area by 2011 as it believes that it will be able to plan its mining operations more efficiently to achieve its target production if it has a complete knowledge of the coal reserves in its concession area. In order to do this, Berau Coal has increased the manpower and drilling equipment used in exploration activities and has engaged an additional drilling contractor. Berau Coal's exploration activities include data collection, geological modelling and financial evaluation. Data collection is the process of identifying the location, layout and quality of a coal deposit. It is based on field mapping, which is a survey of surface features, and borehole drilling, the depth of which varies between deposits depending on the depth and configuration of the coal seams. Field mapping and borehole drilling are typically supplemented by a geophysical survey. http://pdf.reuters.com/Regnews/regnews.asp?i=43059c3bf0e37541&u=urn:newsml:reuters.com... 33 of 41 11/20/2010 1:03 AM
