Dear Shareholder

Important notice – sale of your unmarketable parcel of Elementos shares

I am writing to inform you that Elementos Limited ( Elementos ) is implementing a share sale facility (the Sale Facility ) for holders of parcels of Elementos ordinary shares valued at less than $500 ( unmarketable parcels ).

Elementos has determined that your holding of Elementos shares is valued at less than $500 and is therefore an unmarketable parcel (based on your shareholding at 7pm on Monday, 17 May 2010 and the closing price of Elementos shares of $0.20 on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) on 17 May 2010).

Elementos is introducing the Sale Facility to enable holders of unmarketable parcels of Elementos shares to sell their shares without incurring brokerage or broker handling costs. It also enables Elementos to reduce the costs associated with having a significant number of shareholders with unmarketable parcels on its register.

The Sale Facility is being implemented in accordance with Elementos’ constitution and the ASX Listing Rules.

What do you need to do now?

If you wish to sell your Elementos shares under the Sale Facility you do not need to do anything. Your Elementos shares will be sold on your behalf after Friday, 2 July 2010 and the proceeds of the sale will be paid to you in Australian dollars and in accordance with your existing payment instructions in respect of your Elementos shareholding. If you are an overseas shareholder, you will be responsible for any costs associated with converting your sale proceeds into your local currency.

If you wish to retain your Elementos shares, you must before 5pm AEST on Friday, 2 July 2010 either:

  • complete and return the enclosed Share Retention Form; or

  • purchase additional Elementos shares so that your shareholding becomes a marketable parcel. For your additional purchase of shares to be an effective notice to Elementos that you wish to retain your shares, the additional shares purchased must:

==> picture [150 x 54] intentionally omitted <==

  • be held in the same holding as your current shares (in particular under the same name and address as shown on the Share Retention Form);

  • together with your existing shares, have a market value of more than $500 (based on the closing price of Elementos shares of $0.20 on ASX on Monday, 17 May 2010); and

  • be registered by 7 pm AEST on Friday, 2 July 2010.

If you have a number of shareholdings that you would like to consolidate, please contact the registry on 02 9290 9800 (within Australia) or +61 2 9290 9600 (outside Australia).

What happens next?

Unless you inform Elementos that you wish to retain your shares, your shares will be sold on your behalf by Elementos after Friday, 2 July 2010. You will not need to appoint a broker and will not pay any brokerage or broker handling costs associated with the sale of your shares under the Sale Facility. Elementos will take any action required to sell your shares. Any tax consequences from the sale of your Elementos shares will be your responsibility.

Questions?

If you are in any doubt about whether you should participate in the Sale Facility, or if you require information regarding possible taxation implications from participating in the Sale Facility, please consult your legal, financial or taxation adviser.

Further information regarding the Sale Facility is set out in the attachment that accompanies this letter. If you have any further questions regarding the information set out in this letter or the attachment, contact our registry, Registries Limited, on 02 9290 9600 (within Australia) or +61 2 9290 9600 (outside Australia).
