Agreement with Eskom

International Ferro Metals Limited, the integrated ferrochrome producer, announces that it has reached a new agreement with Eskom to assist with the South African power utility's on-going electricity supply requirements.

IFL has agreed to extend the one furnace shutdown for a further two months through April and May 2013 on the same terms as the current agreement.

The Company's contractual commitments to customers will not be affected. No job losses will occur as a result of the buy-back programme and the furnace shut downs will not significantly impact our other mining and ore beneficiation operations.
