Dear Strike Optionholder,

NOTICE OF IN SPECIE DISTRIBUTION TO STRIKE SHAREHOLDERS AND NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND 2007 ANNUAL REPORT

We are please to provide Strike optionholders with notice of three important corporate matters:

  • (1) The proposed in specie distribution of 16 million shares in Alara Uranium Limited ( Alara ) to eligible Strike shareholders;

  • (2) The 2007 Notice of Annual General Meeting ( AGM ) of Strike for an AGM to be held on 30 November 2007 and an accompanying Prospectus[1] in relation to the offer of Alara shares under an in specie distribution; and

  • (3) The 2007 Annual Report of Strike.

Under the terms of Strike’s options, optionholders are entitled to receive copies of all accounts, reports and notices required to be given to shareholders.

IN SPECIE DISTRIBUTION OF 16 MILLION SHARES IN ALARA URANIUM LIMITED (ALARA) TO ELIGIBLE STRIKE SHAREHOLDERS

Strike proposes to undertake a reduction of share capital to be effected by returning to eligible Strike shareholders, in proportion to the number of Strike shares held by them as at the record date, 16,000,000 Alara shares held by Strike.

This is the subject of Resolution 1 in Strike’s 2007 Notice of AGM. The record date to determine the entitlement of Strike shareholders to receive a pro-rata distribution in specie of Alara shares under the capital return is 10 December 2007, subject to receipt of shareholder approval at the AGM.

Optionholders are advised that only Strike shareholders as at the record date will be entitled to participate in the capital return/in specie distribution of Alara shares.

Optionholders therefore have two options if the return of capital is approved, being;

  • (1) Do nothing (that is, take no action to exercise their options earlier than is required under the terms of issue of such options), in which case the exercise price of their options will be reduced as outlined below; or

  • (2) Exercise the whole or a portion of their options prior to the record date , in which case the Strike shares issued on the exercise of options will be entitled to participate in the capital return/in specie distribution.

Where an optionholder chooses to take no action with respect to their options prior to the record date, the capital return will have the effect of reducing the exercise price of Strike options which remain unexercised immediately after the record date, by the value of the capital return per share. By way of illustration, the table in Section 1.4 (page 8) of the Notice of AGM gives a range of possibilities for this value based upon the different market values of Alara shares as at the date of the capital return and the number of Strike shares on issue as at the record date.

1 The invitation to shareholders to vote on Resolution 1 at the AGM constitutes an offer to transfer Alara shares to shareholders pursuant to an in specie distribution, which requires a disclosure document.

20071102 SRK Notice to SRKO holders re In Specie Distribution and AGM Docs.doc

Where a optionholder chooses to exercise the whole or a portion of their options earlier than the expiry date of such options, such early exercise must occur and the exercised options converted by the Share Registry into Strike shares, by the record date, for these shares to participate under the capital return/in specie distribution.

Optionholders should read the Notice of AGM and accompanying Prospectus in full and carefully and if there is any matter that they do not understand, they should contact their financial adviser, stockbroker or solicitor for advice.

We enclose an Option Exercise Form and a Reply Paid envelope to assist optionholders who wish to convert their options into shares. This form and a cheque for the cost of exercise of options should be returned to the Share Registry by no later than 30 November 2007 to ensure that their options conversion can be processed prior to the record date.

If options are not converted into shares by the record date, they will not qualify for participation under the capital return/in specie distribution and optionholders will be advised of the reduction in the exercise price of their remaining options by the value of the capital return per share.

2007 NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS

Optionholders who are also shareholders of Strike will have received a copy of Strike’s Notice of AGM and an accompanying Prospectus.

A copy of Strike’s Notice of AGM and an accompanying Prospectus is enclosed for those optionholders who are not also Strike shareholders.

2007 ANNUAL REPORT

Optionholders who are also shareholders of Strike will have received a 2007 Annual Report if they had previously elected to receive a printed version.

Otherwise, an electronic version of the 2007 Annual Report may be viewed and downloaded from the Company’s website: www.strikeresources.com.au or emailed to optionholders upon request to [email protected].

The Australian Government recently introduced legislation changing the default option for receiving annual reports. Companies are no longer required to mail out printed annual reports to their members. Instead, members can now make an election as follows:

  • (a) make a written request for a hard copy annual report to be mailed to them; or

  • (b) make a written request for an electronic copy of the annual report to be emailed to them.

Optionholders who are also shareholders and wish to update their annual report elections should complete the relevant form available for downloading from the Company’s website: www.strikeresources.com.au.

If you have any questions in relation to the matters outlined in this letter, please contact the Company Secretary on (08) 9214 9700 or by email to [email protected].

Yours Sincerely,

  • N = the number of Shares with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new Share.

No change will be made pursuant to the application of the above formula to the number of Shares to which the Option Holder is entitled.

9.2 The reduction of the exercise price of each Option in accordance with the above formula shall be subject to the provisions of the Listing Rules of the ASX.
