Reliance on Offer Memorandum

This Offer Memorandum has been prepared in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act which relates to rights issues by certain companies that do not require the provision of a prospectus or other disclosure document.

In deciding whether or not to accept the Offer, you should rely on your own knowledge of PNX Metals Limited, disclosures made by PNX Metals Limited to ASX (which are available on the ASX website at www.asx.com.au using the Company's code PNX) and the advice of your professional adviser.

Forward looking statements

This Offer Memorandum includes forward looking statements that have been based on current expectations about future acts, events and circumstances. These forward-looking statements are, however, subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause those acts, events and circumstances to differ materially from the expectations described in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things, commercial and other risks associated with the meeting of objectives and other investment considerations, as well as other matters not yet known to the Company or not currently considered material by the Company.
