BORNEO LUMBUNG BUYS 23.8% INTEREST IN BUMI


COALspot.com - PT. Borneo Lumbung Energi (BORN), an Indonesian coking coal producer announces that it has signed a sale and purchase agreement, conditional upon shareholder, regulatory, and other approvals to acquire an effective economic interest of approximately 23.8% in Bumi Plc.

According to Borneo's press release, the total investment considered of US$ one billion values Bumi plc's shares at approximately GBP 10.91 per share at the date of the announcement and will be payable in cash.

Mr. Samin Tan, President director of BORN, said " This Transaction creates a partnership between two leading mining groups in Indonesia. Through this transaction, BORN will gain access to the growing thermal coal industry through a well established and major platform. The transaction also provides BORN with exposure to a high quality metals portfolio, thus transforming BORN from a pure coking coal producer into a world class diversified natural resources producer. This also signifies our intelligent way of deploying capital"

Mr. Tan Continued, "BORN has proven mine development skills from greenfield through to production stage and we look forward to working with and supporting current management across the Bumi plc group to execute development plants at the exciting new prjects at Dairi Prima Minerals, Gorontalo Mining and Bumi Mauritania as well as achieving synergies and efficiencies across the coal division. We are strongly committed to creating shareholder value at all levels from BORN to Bumi plc and its subsidiaries and associate companies."

According to BORN, this partnership transforms BORN into a leading natural resources company with exposure to both coking and thermal coal as well as a diversified high quality metals portfolio.

The Transaction positions BORN on the global map, as one of the leading mining companies in the world. BORN also believes, the demand and price outlook for the global thermal coal market is positive with China and India expected to be key growth drivers. The transaction provides BORN with exposure to this growth given Indonesia's proximity to both markets.

The investment is expected to be financed through a US$ one billion five-years amortizing term loan facility provided solely by Standard Chartered Bank. The press release further said, Standard Charted Bank is acting as the financial advisor and acquisition finance provider to BORN in connection with the Transaction.

The Transaction is expected to close in December 2011.
