UPDATE ON CONTRACT WITH AAI AND PLANNING FOR BFS FUNDING

Ferrum Crescent Limited, the ASX, AIM and JSE quoted iron ore developer in northern South
Africa, today announces an update on the financing process being undertaken by the Board to
complete its bankable feasibility study (BFS) in relation to the Moonlight Iron Ore Project in
South Africa.

The Company is currently engaging with a number of parties, including Anvwar Asian
Investment (AAI) from Oman, to secure funds of approximately $10-13m for the completion of
a full BFS for Moonlight. On 16 March 2014 Ferrum Crescent signed an investment agreement
with AAI. A single payment of US$500,000 was made to the Company in accordance with the
agreed payment schedule but a second US$500,000 was not made in accordance with that
schedule, with AAI making a request to delay the payment (as announced on 8 May 2014). The
timetable requested by AAI for payment has now also elapsed without the second payment
being received by the Company. Ferrum Crescent did not agree to the request for delayed
payment, and the Company is in discussions with AAI over its breach of contract.

There are other parties in discussions with Ferrum Crescent, and the Company is looking at
financing options that will secure optimal partnerships for the completion of the BFS and
beyond. Moonlight is an advanced project, potentially capable of producing a high-grade iron
ore pellet product, and is reviewing the use of established infrastructure for transportation.
Given the project’s situation and stage of development and the premium product that it
should be able to produce, the Company believes that this is the best course of action for the
Company at this stage.
