Letter to Shareholders

Dear Asset Resolution Limited Shareholder,

I am pleased to issue the 2021 Annual Report and Notice of Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Asset Resolution Limited (ARL).

The Company's AGM is to be held virtually via Link Market Services' platform https://agmlive.link/Asset21.

This AGM will be held as a virtual meeting in order to comply with the COVID-19 requirements set out in the Government restrictions on public gatherings. Details on attending the AGM virtually are included in this notice of meeting and are on the Company's website www.arlimited.com.au. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Meeting in person.

The resolutions being put to the Meeting are set out below:

Buy-back

The Notice of Meeting includes one resolution to permit ARL to continue to buy back shares. We only intend to buy back shares if we can do so on terms that boost ARL's long-term underlying net asset value per share, while making it easier for those wishing to sell their shares to do so.

The Board is seeking approval for the buybacks, which will allow the Company to buy back shares (should it elect to do so). Specifically, the resolution to be put to shareholders expressly authorises the buyback of up to 671,012 ordinary Shares on market, over the 12 months following the 2021 AGM.

Re-Election of Director

The Notice of Meeting also includes a vote on the re-election of a director retiring by rotation, Mr Giles Craig.

Directors' remuneration

At this AGM, the Board is seeking re-approval of the Non-Executive Share Plan, as part of the normal tri-annual approval requirement, and the re-approval that directors' fees be paid in Shares, thereby preserving the Company's cash. The price per Share to be issued to each of the Non-Executive Directors is $5.32; being the net tangible asset per share shown in the 2021 Annual Report.

Our virtual annual meeting will be held at 4:00pm AEDT on Thursday 21 October 2021. I hope you can join us then.

Yours sincerely,

Giles Craig

Chair
