Dear Shareholder

INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE IN SHAREHOLDER SHARE PURCHASE PLAN

The Board of Directors of RTL Corporation Limited ( RTL Corporation or Company ) has approved the introduction of a Shareholder Share Purchase Plan ( Plan ). The Plan entitles eligible shareholders in the Company, irrespective of the size of their shareholding, to purchase up to $5,000 worth of ordinary fully paid shares in the Company ( Shares ) at a price of $0.003 per Share, free of brokerage and commission ( Offer ).

In making the Offer, the Company is particularly mindful of the number of long standing shareholders of the Company who no longer hold a marketable parcel of Shares. The Plan provides these shareholders in particular with the opportunity to hold an economic parcel of Shares in the Company.

Shareholders Eligible to Participate in the Plan

The right to participate in the Plan is available exclusively to shareholders who are registered as holders of Shares in RTL Corporation at 5pm (WST) on the record date of 18 March 2009 and whose registered address is in Australia or New Zealand ( Eligible Shareholders ).

Share Purchase Plan

The Board is pleased to offer to all Eligible Shareholders an opportunity to participate in the Plan. Details of the Plan are set out in this letter and the enclosed Terms and Conditions together with an Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

The issue price of the Offer represents a discount of approximately 5% to the average trading price of Shares on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) during the thirty (30) trading days immediately prior to the announcement date of the Plan.

Use of Funds

The funds raised under the Plan will be used by the Company to continue the development of its Mine Mixers business and for working capital purposes.

Subscription and Application Procedure

If you would like to participate in the Offer, please return your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form (enclosed), together with your cheque for the purchase price for the number of Shares you wish to acquire, on or before the closing date of 5pm (WST) on 10 April 2009 . No late applications will be accepted.

Please note the maximum investment per shareholder is 1,666,666 Shares, being an investment of $5,000 at $0.003 per Shares, and the minimum investment is 666,666 Shares, being an investment of $2,000 at $0.003 per Share.

The maximum investment any shareholder may apply for will remain 1,666,666 Shares even if a shareholder receives more than one Offer (whether in respect of a joint holding or because the shareholder has more than one holding under a separate account). The Company reserves the right to reject any applications where there is non-compliance with this rule or any other term of the Plan.

Additional Information and Important Dates

The Offer cannot be transferred and the Directors of the Company reserve the right to reject any application over $5,000. Shares allotted under the Plan will be issued no later than 3 business days after the closing date of the Offer. Application for quotation on ASX of the new Shares will be made immediately following the issue of those Shares.

The maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to this Offer is 113,333,333 Shares, being a total capital raising of $340,000. The Directors reserve the right to accept oversubscriptions, however, in the event that oversubscriptions are received, the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, scale-back all applications on a pro-rata basis to 113,333,333 Shares.

If the Company rejects or partially rejects an application or purported application, the Company will promptly return to the shareholder the relevant application monies, without interest.

On the trading day immediately prior to the date of the Offer, the last closing price of the Shares traded on ASX was $0.002 cents. The market price of the Shares in the Company may rise and fall between the date of the Offer and the date that any Shares are allotted to you as a result of your acceptance of this Offer. This means that the subscription price you pay for the Shares may exceed the market price of the Shares at the date of allotment of Shares under this Offer. The Board recommends that you obtain your own financial advice in relation to the Offer and consider price movements of Shares in the Company prior to accepting this Offer.

As announced on 2 March 2009, the Company intends to formally change the activities of the Company to focus solely on the Company’s mining service asset, being the Mine Mixers business. This process will involve a significant change in the nature and scale of the Company’s activities and the Company will be required to re-comply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules if the proposal is approved by shareholders at an upcoming general meeting of the Company.

As part of the re-compliance process, the Company will be required to raise funds at a minimum price of $0.20 per share in addition to this share purchase

plan. The Company will need to undertake a consolidation of its existing issued capital including the new shares to be issued under this plan. The ratio of the consolidation has not yet been determined and is likely to be finalised in the coming weeks after discussions are held with various brokers/investors.

Shortfall Placement

In the event that the less than 113,333,333 Shares are applied for pursuant to this Offer, the shortfall may be placed at the discretion of the directors.

These dates are indicative only. The Company may vary the dates and times of the Offer without notice. Accordingly, shareholders are encouraged to submit their Entitlement and Acceptance Forms as early as possible.

Holders of Small Parcels of Shares

A marketable parcel is defined by ASX as a parcel of securities with a market value of less than $500. You will understand and appreciate that the Company incurs considerable costs to administer shareholdings and in providing Annual Reports, Notices of Meeting and other information to its shareholders. In the case of small holdings, these expenses often outweigh the value of the Shares.

Those shareholders who currently hold less than a marketable parcel of Shares are encouraged to take up the Offer to increase their holding. If not, in order to reduce costs, following the closing date of the Offer the Company will seek to sell the Shares held by holders of non-marketable parcels. Those holders will be provided with full details of their rights and obligations prior to the Company proceeding with such a course of action.

If you wish to participate in the Share Purchase Plan please ensure that you return the completed “Entitlement and Acceptance Form” prior to the closing date of the Offer.

Should you wish to discuss any information contained in this letter further, do not hesitate to contact the Company Secretary, Mr Guy Robertson on (02) 8448 8195.

Yours faithfully

The maximum amount which any shareholder may subscribe for in any consecutive 12 month period is A$5,000.

RTL Corporation may modify or terminate the Plan at any time.

RTL Corporation will notify ASX of any modification to, or termination of, the Plan. The omission to give notice of any modification to, or termination of, the Plan or the failure of ASX to receive such notice will not invalidate the modification or termination.

Without limiting the above, RTL Corporation may issue to any person fewer RTL Corporation Shares than the person applied for under the Plan if the issue of the RTL Corporation Shares applied for would contravene any applicable law or the Listing Rules of ASX.

Dispute Resolution

RTL Corporation may, in any manner it thinks fit, settle any difficulties, anomalies or disputes which may arise in connection with or by reason of the operation of the Plan, whether generally or in relation to any participant, application or RTL Corporation Shares.
