The Manager Company Announcements ASX Limited via Electronic Lodgement

Dear Shareholder

Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue

On 18 January 2008, Windimurra Vanadium Limited ( Company ) lodged a prospectus ( Prospectus ) with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission ( ASIC ) for a nonrenounceable entitlement issue of 34,250,031 fully paid ordinary shares ( New Shares ) on the basis of one (1) New Share for every existing three (3) shares held on 29 January 2008 ( Record Date ), to be issued at $1.60 each to raise approximately $54.8 million ( Entitlement Issue ).

The Entitlement Issue includes an additional share facility whereby shareholders who are eligible to participate in the issue will be able to apply for additional New Shares not taken up by other shareholders ( Additional Share Facility ). Full details of the Additional Share Facility are contained in the Prospectus.

Fractional entitlements will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. New Shares issued will rank equally with all existing shares on issue. Shareholder approval is not required in relation to the Entitlement Issue.

On or about 1 February 2008, a full copy of the Prospectus will be mailed to all shareholders who held shares on the Record Date. However, the Prospectus will not constitute an offer in any place in which, or to any person to whom, it will be unlawful to make such an offer and an Entitlement and Acceptance Form will only be sent to shareholders with registered addresses in Australia and New Zealand.

The Prospectus is available on the ASX website at www.asx.com.au.

The Entitlement Issue is fully underwritten by Euroz Securities Limited ( Underwriter ) and sub-underwritten by Territory Resources Limited. In consideration for the underwriting, the Company has agreed to pay the Underwriter a fee equal to 3% of the amount raised under the Prospectus.

The purpose of the offer is to raise approximately $54.8 million (before expenses of the offer). The funds raised from the offer will be applied to fund development of the Windimurra Vanadium Project and to provide working capital for the Company.

The Company will apply for official quotation by ASX of the New Shares to be issued pursuant to the Entitlement Issue.
