ASX Announcement 11 May 2015 Celamin Holdings Receives Results of Initial Court Action ACN 139 255 771 ABN 82 139 255 771 Level 4, 100 Albert Road South Melbourne VIC 3205 Contact: Phone: +61 (0)3 9692 7222 Fax: +61 (0)3 9077 9233 [email protected] Investor Relations: Stephen Nossal Board of Directors: Martin Broome, Chairman Nic Clift, Managing Director Russell Luxford, Non-Exec Director Sue-Ann Higgins, Alternate Director Tim Markwell, Non-Exec Director Company Secretary: Melanie Leydin Securities on Issue: CNL: 993,171,986 ordinary shares CNLCA: 14,887,796 partly paid shares Celamin Holdings NL (ASX: CNL) (Celamin, the Company) announces it has received the results of one of the initial court actions it has brought regarding the dispute with its joint venture partner, Tunisian Mining Services (TMS). Celamin is in dispute with TMS over ownership and control of the joint venture company Chaketma Phosphates SA (CPSA), and has engaged Tunisian legal advisers and commenced legal actions to resolve this situation. As previously reported, Celamin has commenced three initial legal actions in the Tunisian courts: - An Application for reversal of a purported share transfer against the Director General of CPSA, TMS, and Kais Mansouri of TMS; - An application for appointment of a trustee under supervision of the court to manage the business of CPSA and preserve the rights of all parties until a final decision is made regarding the share transfer; and - An application for recovery of AUD$160,000 owed by TMS to Celamin Limited, which is unrelated to the share transfer. Celamin has been informed that the application for an appointment of a trustee to manage CPSA was not granted. The reasons for the judgement have not yet been released, and are expected to become available within the next 2 weeks. Once received, Celamin, in conjunction with its legal team, will determine appropriate next steps. Celamin notes that the application for the appointment of a trustee is separate from the application for reversal of the share transfer and there has been no consideration of the merits of the latter application. The two remaining court actions continue and Celamin is in the process of determining further actions to be launched in the near future.
