Zealand and Canada, the Company has formed the view that it is unreasonable to extend the Offer to those shareholders ( Ineligible Shareholders ).

Accordingly, Red Mountain will not be sending you a copy of the Prospectus as Red Mountain is unable to extend to you the opportunity to participate in the Rights Issue.

Pursuant to section 615 of the Corporations Act of Australia, Red Mountain has appointed Patersons as a nominee to sell the rights to the new securities under the Offer to which Excluded Shareholders are entitled. Patersons will have the absolute and sole discretion to determine the timing and price at which the rights will be sold and the manner of any such sale. Red Mountain will pay Patersons a brokerage fee of 1.5% (subject to a minimum charge of $100) on the execution of the sale of any rights. The net proceeds of the sale of rights after the deducting of all expenses will be forwarded by Red Mountain to the Excluded Shareholders in proportion to their share of such rights.

Notwithstanding that Patersons must sell rights, Excluded Shareholders may nevertheless receive no net proceeds if the costs of the sale are greater than the sale proceeds.

If you have any queries in relation to the Rights Issue, please do not hesitate to contact Shannon Coates, the Company Secretary on (08) 9226 5668.

Yours faithfully
