The Global Offering (the „Offering“)

With an implied value of GBP892 million - GBP1.1 billion at the Offer Price Range, the IPO is expected to be the largest in London in 2008 to date, as well as the largest IPO ever in Prague and one of the largest in Warsaw. The Offering comprises an international institutional offering in the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Poland and elsewhere outside the US in reliance on Regulation S, in the US under Rule 144A, as well as a public offering to retail investors in the Czech Republic and Poland. The Offering will first be made available to eligible New World Resources employees in both the Czech Republic and Poland through a separate employee offer. Thereafter, up to 5% of the Offering may be made available for purchase by certain Directors of NWR, suppliers, business contractors, business counterparties and friends of NWR and the Selling Shareholders under a directed share programme.

The Offering will comprise both existing and new A Shares. Prior to the Offering the Company established two divisions which act as separate accounting and reporting units, consisting of (i) the mining division that is attributable to the A Shares to be listed; and (ii) the real estate division that is attributable to the B Shares, which will not be listed and which will be held solely by RPG Industries SE. New World Resources current direct and indirect shareholders („Selling Shareholders“) will sell a part of their respective shareholdings, representing up to 26.4% of the Company’s issued share capital. In addition the Selling Shareholders have granted the Joint Global Coordinators an option to purchase 12,452,001 shares to cover any over-allotments made. Following the Offering, the Selling Shareholders will continue to retain a majority shareholding.

The Offering of new A Shares will enable the Company to fund additional growth opportunities (including by way of further exploration, joint ventures or strategic acquisitions of new and mothballed mines) and its capital investment programme.

All A Shares sold in the Offering rank pari passu with all outstanding shares and as such will be eligible for all future dividends that may be declared and paid by the company. New World Resources intends to pay dividends of approximately 50% of the Mining Division’s consolidated net income over the course of the business cycle.

The institutional bookbuilding subscription period will commence today 23 April 2008 and is expected to close on or before 7 May 2008. Retail subscription in the Czech Republic to commence on 24 April 2008 and close on or before 6 May 2008; Retail subscription in Poland to commence on 29 April and close on 6 May 2008. Pricing and allocations are expected to be announced on or around 7 May 2008. Trading in A Shares is expected to commence on the main markets of the London Stock Exchange on 8 May under the symbol „NWR“, the Prague Stock Exchange on 9 May and the Warsaw Stock Exchange on 14 May.
