Dear Shareholder
Rights Issue and Potential TSX‐V Listing
I am pleased to invite you to participate in a 1 for 10 non‐renounceable rights issue by Aguia Resources Limited ( Company ), at $0.04 per New Share to be issued by the Company ( Rights Issue ) raising approximately $1,015,799 in new capital. The Offer Document to be sent to you in the next two weeks outlines the details of the Rights Issue.
The maximum number of New Shares to be issued under the Rights Issue is 25,394,979 (provided that no existing options are exercised prior to the Record Date), which would raise up to approximately $1,015,799. At the conclusion of the Rights Issue, the total number of issued Shares in the Company will be a maximum of 279,344,767 (provided that no existing options are exercised prior to the Record Date).
It is proposed that the funds raised from the Offer will be applied for the purposes of expanding the resource at Três Estradas and funding delineation drill testing of the neighbouring Joca Tavares project, with the objective of defining at least 75 million tonnes of phosphate resources between the two deposits. Funds raised will also be used to cover the costs of the issue and to provide working capital.
In addition to the above, the Company has decided to undertake a preliminary review of whether a TSX‐V listing is appropriate for the Company. Funds raised from the Rights Issue will be applied towards this preliminary review.
The Rights Issue is non‐renounceable and is not underwritten.
Each Shareholder on the Company’s register of members whose registered address is in Australia or New Zealand on 15 January 2015 at 7.00 pm (Sydney time) ( Record Date ) will be entitled to subscribe for one New Share in the Company for every ten ordinary Shares held at the Record Date, at a price of $0.04 per New Share ( Entitlement ).

To the extent that you do not take up your Entitlement, your interest in the Company will be diluted.
The New Shares issued under the Rights Issue will be fully paid and will rank equally with Company’s existing issued Shares. The Company will make an application to the ASX for official quotation of these New Shares.
No dividend is expected to be paid on Shares in the Company in respect of the year ending 30 June 2014.
Shareholders eligible to participate in the Rights Issue as described in the Offer Document do not need take any action at this time. A personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form will be mailed to the

Dear Shareholder
NON‐RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS ISSUE – LETTER TO INELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERS
Aguia Resources Limited ( Company ) has announced a 1 for 10 non‐renounceable rights issue at $0.04 per New Share to be issued by the Company ( Rights Issue ) raising approximately $1,015,799 in new capital.
The maximum number of New Shares to be issued under the Rights Issue is 25,394,979 (provided that no existing options are exercised prior to the Record Date), which would raise up to approximately $1,015,799. At the conclusion of the Rights Issue, the total number of issued Shares in the Company will be a maximum of 279,344,767 (provided that no existing options are exercised prior to the Record Date).
The Rights Issue is non‐renounceable and is not underwritten.
The Rights Issue is being undertaken pursuant to an Offer Document that was lodged with Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) on 9 January 2015. The Offer Document is available on the ASX website www.asx.com.au.
The offer is only being made to shareholders of the Company ( Shareholders ) named on its register of members at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on 15 January 2015, whose registered address is in Australia or New Zealand.
This letter is to inform you that you are not eligible to participate in the Rights Issue. This letter is not an offer to issue New Shares in the Company, nor an invitation to apply for New Shares. You are not required to do anything in response to this letter.
Shareholders who are eligible to participate in the Rights Issue are those persons who:
-
are registered as a Shareholder of the Company as at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on 15 January 2015; and
-
have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand.
In accordance with the Listing Rule 7.7.1 of the ASX Listing Rules, the Company has considered that it would be unreasonable given the number of Shareholders with registered addresses outside of Australia and New Zealand and the size of the shareholdings held by those Shareholders to offer them the Rights Issue. Taking this into consideration, as well as taking into consideration the costs of complying with the legal requirements and the requirements of the regulatory authorities of those relevant jurisdictions outside of Australia and New Zealand, the Company believes it to be unreasonable to extend the Rights Issue to all Shareholders.
According to our records, you do not satisfy the eligibility criteria to participate in the Rights Issue as stated above and accordingly, the Company wishes to advise that in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7.1, the Rights Issue will not be extended to you, you will not be able to subscribe for New Shares through the Rights Issue and you will not be sent the Offer Document.
On behalf of the Board of Aguia Resources Limited and management, we regret that you are not eligible to participate in the Rights Issue and thank you for your continued support.
