In accordance with the terms of the Cowell JVA, the granting of such consent from PIRSA is a condition precedent to the issuance by Renaissance of the following securities, which Renaissance has now issued to Hiltaba:

Further information regarding the Cowell JVA, including a more detailed description of the securities being granted to Hiltaba, can be found in Renaissance’s IPO Prospectus dated 9 November 2010.
Cowell (EL 3978)
Cowell or EL 3978, the subject tenement of the Cowell JVA, consists of three blocks totaling 840km[2] , forming key parts of the Pirie Basin Project and Eastern Eyre Project. Under the terms of the Cowell JVA, Renaissance has the right to earn a 75% interest in EL 3978.
Pirie Basin Project
The Pirie Basin Project, which is southwest of Uranium SA Limited’s (ASX: USA) Mullaquana uranium project, is targeting Tertiary sandstone hosted uranium deposits amenable to in situ recovery mining. The project is made up of EL 4400 (which is 100% owned by Renaissance) and the eastern portions of EL 3978 (see figure 1). Renaissance recently completed a gravity survey over portions of the Pirie Basin Project and is now seeking regulatory approvals to begin drill testing on prospective portions of the Pirie Basin sedimentary sequence. Renaissance expects to commence drilling on the Pire Basin Project within the current quarter.
