Corporate and Strategic Update

Forte Energy NL ("Forte Energy" or "the Company") (ASX/AIM: FTE), the emerging international uranium
company focused on the exploration and development of uranium assets, is please to present an update on its
corporate and strategic initiatives.


- Change of UK/AIM broker
- Delisting from Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX")
- Open offer to all shareholders
- Acquisition opportunities

Forte advises that further to recent announcements, the board has been reviewing the Corporate and
Strategic plan for the Company going forward in conjunction with the review of resources that was announced
yesterday and is pleased to advise the following:

* The Company has appointed RFC Ambrian Limited ("RFC Ambrian") to fill the role of UK broker in
addition to its present role as NOMAD for AIM purposes. RFC Ambrian have recently underwritten a AUD$60m
equity raising for ASX Uranium developer Peninsula Energy Limited to begin construction of its mine in
Wyoming. As part of its role, RFC Ambrian will be providing regular research coverage of Forte, and in due
course, an initiating coverage research note. The directors are pleased to have RFC Ambrian fulfilling the
role of broker in addition to the NOMAD role that they have been performing since 2006.

* After a review by the board of the trading on both the ASX and AIM markets, the board has come to
the conclusion that the Company is getting little benefit from its ASX listing and the Company and its
shareholders' interests would be best served by delisting on the ASX and continuing with its AIM listing
only. The Company has written to the ASX asking for clarification on the ASX's requirements for delisting
and will revert to shareholders as soon as it has received this clarification.

* As a consequence of delisting from the ASX, the Company believes it will in future be in a
position to make an open offer to ALL shareholders to subscribe for shares in the Company. This has not
previously been possible due to the non-alignment of the ASX/AIM quotes and certain restrictions imposed by
the ASX, which would obviously be removed if the Company was no longer listed there.

* For some time now the Company has had a strategy of growth through acquisition, whilst the Uranium
sector has been in the "doldrums". This was firstly evidenced by the Company's recent transaction with
European Uranium Resources ("European Uranium") for a 50% stake in the Company's Slovakian assets.

The Company has been actively looking at other opportunities for acquisition in the Uranium sector that
will provide synergies with its existing assets. The Company has identified certain assets that it believes
would fit those criteria and is pursuing talks and negotiations with the relevant parties and will advise
shareholders of progress.

Shareholders should be aware that there is no certainty of such discussions and negotiations leading to a
transaction being concluded.


CONCLUSION

Notwithstanding the current slump in commodities, and general macroeconomic uncertainty, the board believes
that the above strategy, if carried out in a sensible and measured way, will go a long way towards setting
the Company and its shareholders up to be extremely well placed in the Uranium space for when the expected
rebound in the sector takes place. The board looks forward to updating shareholders on the above
developments.

Slovak Republic Joint Venture

Forte Energy holds a 50% interest with European Uranium in two project areas in Slovakia, namely Kuriskova
and Novoveska Huta, of which Kuriskova is the most advanced. Forte Energy's interest is held through
ownership of 50% of the shares in European Uranium's Slovak subsidiaries, Ludovika Energy and Ludovika
Mining, which hold the mineral licenses comprising the Kuriskova and Novoveska Huta uranium projects. Forte
must sole fund a minimum of CAD$350,000 a year on the Ludovika entities over the next ten years to maintain
its 50% interest with the first year's expenditure of CAD$350,000 being an obligation.

The Kuriskova project consists of 32 square kilometres of mineral licenses situated approximately 10 km
northwest of the city of Kosice, a regional industrial centre in East-Central Slovakia.

The Novoveska Huta uranium deposit is located at the western end of the Carpathian uranium belt, about 50
kilometres northwest of Kuriskova and near the town of Spisska Nova Ves. The deposit consists of a mining
license over one square kilometre and a surrounding fifteen square kilometre exploration license.
