Total 2014 Production

H1 2015

On track to significantly increase palm oil production in 2015 to over 30,000tn, the Mill’s first full year of operations

Excellent Location

Existing • Smallholder relationships • c.1,900 ha company plantations • 60t/h mill • 1M plants nursery

Expansion Plan • 24,000 ha for plantations • 60t/h mill • New nursery (subject to funding)

Advantageous location and existing infrastructure

Existing operations are located in Ayanouan, 2hrs from Abidjan’s port

Expansion land is located in Guitry, 4hrs from Abidjan’s port

Good road links to the port and to Ghana

Strategy

Immediate 1-2 Years

• Construct a palm kernel oil crushing facility by Q4 2015 • Develop a further 3,000 to 5,000 ha of company plantations in close proximity to the first mill and increase yields of smallholders’ plantations

• Commence operations at 24,000ha Guitry including new nursery and 1,000ha of estates

Medium – Long Term 2-5 Years

• Finalise first land acquisition in Ghana of 10,000ha

• Expand planting at Guitry and construct second 60tphr palm oil mill

• Commence first nursery and pilot planting in Ghana • Review new projects in Cote d’Ivoire and bordering countries

To rapidly increase production from the first project and fast track development of Guitry project

Market Opportunity Corporate Activity •

International palm oil majors currently entering or expanding in West Africa to address lack of land in Malaysia and Indonesia



World’s three largest palm oil companies; Wilmar, Sime Darby and Golden Agri have entered West Africa



Dec 2013 - KLK, one of the leading global plantation companies, has acquired a 63% interest in Liberian-based Equatorial Palm Oil at a significant premium to DekelOil



DekelOil is currently one of the only established, palm oil developers with contiguous land not in partnership with a major Asian palm oil company

• Palm oil is the most widely used edible oil in the world • Demand estimated to double by 2020 (World Bank) • Supply side limited by lack of land availability in traditional growth zones in Malaysia and Indonesia

Cote d’Ivoire: An Ideal Environment •

Cote d’Ivoire has a well established palm oil industry with an estimated 250,000ha of palm oil plantations



Highly dominant agriculture industry provides an existing agriculture workforce and commodity trading infrastructure



Modern infrastructure: land, sea (largest port in West Africa), air, electricity and communication



Shortage of Côte d’Ivoire milling capacity for smallholders



The Directors believe the market is relatively fragmented with potential acquisition opportunities



Economy grew by 8.1% in 2013 (source IMF projection) Company

Simple CPO Processing Methods

c.14 hectare, mill floor

• At full capacity, the Mill can produce 70-75,000 tons of CPO

• An effluent treatment plant (‘ETS’) is being built by leading provider KIS Group • Kernel crushing plant currently being constructed – due to commence operations in Q4 2015 • Mill management and operations team in place

Feedstock for the Mill Small Holder Estates

Company Estates

Relationships with 1,000’s of small holders

1,900 ha planted to date at Ayanouan, partly yielding

Estimated annual yields from small holders of 10 tn/h of Fresh Fruit Bunch

Costs to maturity: US$2,000/ha to US$2,500/ha Mature plantations in Côte d’Ivoire have a peak yield of 20-24t/h

A blend of small holder feedstock due to regional surplus supply and planted company estates which will come into maturity in the near term

Logistics • Logistics Zone Managers recruited to coordinate the delivery of fruit to collection points and Mill • Continuous planning with local cooperatives to enable the adequate and efficient delivery of feedstock • Three ‘Collection Points’ established providing multiple drop-off points for smallholders and managing congestion as trucks make deliveries for processing • The Mill’s reception area has been designed to be twice the size of those at traditional 70,000 tpa mills for efficiency purposes

• Contract signed with a subcontractor to transport fruits from the Logistics Collection Points to the Mill

Developing an effective logistics network to ensure timely delivery of fresh fruit bunches ('FFB') to the Mill via Collection Points

Social and Environment • RSPO member and certification process to commence shortly

• Majority of planting cultivated areas • Planting in communities
