TIO CORRECTS UNFOUNDED SPECULATION

TIO (NZ) Limited (TIO) has become aware of speculation that, shortly after the close of its takeover bid for Flinders Mines Limited (Flinders), it intends to undertake a further process to acquire any remaining shares in Flinders (Flinders Shares) by way of a scheme of arrangement, further takeover bid or similar mechanism, at a higher offer price than the current offer price of 2.5 cents per Flinders Share (Further Process).

TIO would like Flinders' shareholders to know that this speculation is untrue and that it has no intentions for any Further Process.

In addition, as previously announced, TIO would like to remind Flinders' shareholders that the current offer price of 2.5 cents per Flinders Share is best and final and will not be increased, in the absence of an alternative proposal or competing proposal from a third party.

If Flinders shareholders have any further questions about TIO's offer, they can call the Offer Information Line on 1300 782 998 (toll-free within Australia) or + 61 3 9415 4197 (from outside Australia).
