Notice of Name Change

Ortac Resources is pleased to announce that the Company has changed its name to Arc Minerals Ltd ("Arc Minerals") with immediate effect. The Company's new ticker will be ARCM.LN and trading under the new name is expected to commence on or around 22 January 2018. The Company's new website address is www.arcminerals.com.

Nick von Schirnding, executive chairman commented: "The renaming of the group to Arc Minerals represents an exciting new chapter for us. This follows a number of material changes that have been implemented over the past few months including executing a clear strategy focusing on our high quality African exploration assets. Having made major strides in consolidating and advancing our highly attractive gold prospect at Casa, we are now actively pursuing discussions with fellow stakeholders at Zamsort, which is an attractive Zambian copper/cobalt asset. With a new and highly experienced board of directors in place we look forward to an exciting future as Arc Minerals ."
