Rights Issue – defensive rationale

30

Appropriate to adopt a more conservative capital structure in currentuncertain environment:

• Improves Lonmin’s ability to withstand potential adverse movements in external factors - PGM price basket and Rand/US Dollar exchange rate

• Significantly reduces Lonmin’s borrowings and annual interest charge

• Provides incremental headroom in respect of financial covenants contained in its borrowing facilities

Page 31: INTERIM RESULTS 2009 11 May 2009 - The Vault - Interim results / rights issue announcement - 11th May 2009 - Dealings in new shares nil paid commences – 15th May 2009 - Latest date

Rights Issue – offensive rationale

31

Strengthened capital structure enables value optimisation:

• Ongoing cost saving initiatives expected to move Lonmin further down the industry cost curve

• Current focus on Marikana • Expected to produce the quickest, most profitable and cash generative ounces• Exploit under-utilised capacity at Hossy, Saffy and K4, at the appropriate time

Page 32: INTERIM RESULTS 2009 11 May 2009 - The Vault - Interim results / rights issue announcement - 11th May 2009 - Dealings in new shares nil paid commences – 15th May 2009 - Latest date

Summary & Outlook

32

• Unpredictable short term PGM demand outlook

• Focusing on H2 2009 production delivery - actions being taken include:• Production delivery with reduced workforce• Continued focus on cash preservation and cost reduction

• Maintaining 2009 sales guidance of 700,000 Platinum ounces• Likely to be weighted to Q4 2009

• Expecting 2009 Rand-based gross operating costs to be lower than 2008

• Working with Incwala on upcoming HDSA re-financing event

• More conservative but appropriate capital structure, through re-financed credit facilities and rights issue
