57. Services – Corporate
Pareto works closely with listed companies to assist in many of the Equity Capital Markets transactions and options
available to provide capital and as a means of improving the quality of an existing company’s share register through
promotion and marketing to professional and institutional clients.
At Pareto, we initially raise funds for early stage projects via our extensive network of sophisticated and wholesale
investors. Our team’s ongoing commitment to services through our corporate advisory role then introduces clients to
large scale brokers and institutional investors through a series of investor roadshows throughout Australia, Asia, Europe
and the U.S.
Our team has built outstanding institutional and broker networks in Australia and overseas. We have assisted numerous
ASX listed companies in expanding their networks and shareholder base via presentations with key investment analysts,
institutions and investment groups.
Pareto has had a successful history of identifying, financing and vending resource projects internationally via the “IPO”
process or the introduction to a suitable listed vehicle (“Shell”).
Pareto has established networks with experts and consultants to assist in this process to ensure that your specific
business and requirements are met during this critical stage in any corporate growth strategy.

Pareto specialises in organising all meetings and introductions in the region your company desires, generally targeting
the investment communities in Hong Kong, Singapore, New York, London, Melbourne and Sydney. Our team is able to
tailor a roadshow to meet investors that are sector-specific to your company, and most importantly - we can ensure that
our itinerary fits your available time frames.
Standard roadshows usually require a minimum time allocation of 3 days if conducted in Australia and 4 days if targeting
overseas groups (this provides sufficient time for meetings and travel requirements).
Roadshows are highly effective ways of raising capital and further promoting your company to new and qualified
professional investors. We take the work out of organising this important function and companies can easily leverage
from our established relationships and contacts throughout the global investment community by outsourcing this role to
our team.

60. Frequently Asked Questions – ADG Global Supply Case
Study
Can Pareto raise up to $10million?
Working closely with ADG, Pareto will raise sufficient capital as required, $10m was raised in various stages .
– See Appendix A attached
How well established is Pareto on the East Coast?
We have strong institutional and broker relationships on the east coast. Pareto completed 6 roadshows on the
east coast in 2011
Our approach is to partner with a broker(s) with local presence where required
Most recent example of how effectively this strategy of partnering with brokers works was with ADG and
Investor First. By partnering we introduced 8 institutional investors for a $2.45m placement. In addition
the broker initiated coverage and ongoing research
How often will we need to roadshow in 2012?
The need for capital required us to commence roadshowing immediately
The process then becomes one of raising awareness and follow up communication to ensure liquidity is
ongoing
Pareto will maintain contact with all groups post roadshow to secure potential investment in the company

67. Existing Uranium Demand
Drivers
• 434 operating nuclear power stations (Feb 2012)
operated by 31 countries
• 240 research and medical isotope reactors
• 140 nuclear powered ships
• Consuming 200mlbs uranium p.a.
• One ton of natural uranium produces more than 40 million kilowatt-
hours of electricity
• This is equivalent to burning 16,000 tons of coal or 80,000 barrels of
oil
• Electricity generation costs
• Gas and coal costs 5.0c per Kwh
• Nuclear costs 0.7c per Kwh

The industrialisation/urbanisation of China, India and Eastern Europe requires low

As this scales up it is increasingly about low emissions power
And for the 21st Century that’s about nuclear power.

85. Business Plan –
10mlbs per annum before 2025
• To commence ISR production at Lance Projects, Wyoming in 2012/13* building
to 2.2mlbs U3O8 p.a. over 3 years (Plant capacity 3mlbs p.a.)
• Continue to develop the mineral potential at:
– Wyoming 95-145mlbs U3O8
– Karoo 90-150mlbs U3O8
Underpin balance sheet with profit from Wyoming
• Develop conventional mining and milling operation at Karoo Projects, RSA by
2016/17 building to 3mlbs U3O8 p.a. over 3 years
• Look at near production acquisition opportunities in areas of existing operations
to expand production at both CPP’s
• Long term goal to be a 10mlbs per annum uranium producer before 2025
* Subject to regulatory approval

97. Nationalisation Debate - NO
• President Jacob Zuma on Friday squashed more than two years of talk about the nationalisation of South Africa’s
mining sector, saying state control or ownership of the mines could not work.
• Asked during a televised breakfast briefing if the government planned to nationalise mines, Zuma said
emphatically: “We’re very clear. It is not our policy. We’ve been saying this inside the country, outside the country.
It cannot be. “We have answered this question many times. We are very clear,” he added. “Our policy is a mixed
economy.”
• Coming at the end of a week in which two senior ministers dismissed nationalisation as unviable and the ANC
released a study describing it as an “unmitigated disaster”, Zuma’s comments lay to rest two years of debate that
hit South Africa’s image as an investor-friendly emerging market.
• However, Malema’s suspension from the party at the end of last year and the growing ranks of declared and
heavyweight opponents of nationalisation mean the idea is not going anywhere.
• “You cannot ask for greater clarity,” said political consultant Nic Borain. “If you look at the words the document
uses, and you take what Zuma said (on Friday), I think we can put this issue to bed.
• “Read altogether, this is the ANC very clearly saying ‘Our
task as government is to get the
most out of these resources.’ Nationalisation would be a catastrophe.”
