SALT LAKE POTASH AND MITSUBISHI ENTER MOU

FOR OFFTAKE ARRANGEMENT

Salt Lake Potash (the Company) is pleased to announce that the Company has today executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Mitsubishi Australia Limited and Mitsubishi Corporation (Mitsubishi), setting out the basis for the first Offtake Agreement for the Goldfields Salt Lakes Project (GSLP).

The Offtake Agreement will provide Mitsubishi with sales and offtake rights for up to 50% of the Sulphate of Potash (SOP) production from a Demonstration Plant at the GSLP, for distribution into Asia and Oceania and potentially other markets.

Salt Lake Potash is progressing its GSLP development strategy, initially involving construction of a Demonstration Plant producing up to 50,000tpa of high quality SOP, with plans to distribute production through a small number of global distribution partnerships.

The Mitsubishi MOU is non-binding and sets out the key terms for a subsequent formal Offtake Agreement as the Demonstration Plant is developed. As well as quantities and target markets, the MOU's other terms include:

• • Market pricing and commission mechanisms;

• • Specifications and delivery parameters;

• • Mitsubishi to provide strategic advice on marketing within the region; and

• • The parties to continue discussions regarding funding requirements for the GSLP.
