You may elect to convert some or all of your Convertible Notes into fully paid ordinary shares in Resolute ( Shares ) prior to the Redemption Date. Should you elect to do this, each Convertible Note will convert into 1 Share and no further payment is required by you to complete this conversion.

If you take no action or the Conversion Notice is not received by 5.00pm on Friday, 30 December 2011, Resolute intends to redeem those Convertible Notes that remain on 31 December 2011 for $0.50 per Convertible Note. However, the Company retains its right to exercise its discretion in relation to this early redemption notice up until 20 December 2011, at which point its final decision will be announced.

For Conversion Notices received by the specified time, Resolute will proceed to issue the Shares on conversion of the Convertible Notes on or about 31 December 2011 ( Conversion Date ).

You will be paid interest, in accordance with the Trust Deed, until the 31 December 2011 regardless of when your Conversion Notice is received by Resolute in the period through to 31 December 2011.

As at the date of this Notice, Resolute has on issue 469,558,162 Shares and 136,862,475 Convertible Notes. Conversion of all of the Convertible Notes will result in Resolute having a total of 606,420,637 Shares on issue.

In the likely event the Company confirms that any remaining Convertible Notes at 31 December 2011 will be redeemed, ASX trading in the Convertible Notes will cease on Wednesday, 21 December 2011 (which is 5 business days before the Conversion Date).
