Important notice to all RHG Group shareholders

Please head to www.rhgshareholders.com/ for more information

Dear Fellow Shareholder,

Important resolutions at the RHG Annual General Meeting on 12 November

This document explains why certain shareholders, including those interests associated with The Intelligent
Investor, strongly believe it is in the interests of all shareholders to remove David Coe from the Board of RHG Ltd
and appoint Steven Johnson and Gregory Hoffman. In short;

1. These are modest but substantive and beneficial improvements to the board.

2. They are justified because;

a. The RHG share price has fallen precipitously since listing at $2.50 in July 2007;
b. The board has not been responsive to minority shareholder interests;
c. The proposed new directors have the skills, experience and desire to enhance the current board and
assist in a return of capital to shareholders.

3. RHG shareholders—the owners of this business—should decide these matters.

What you decide to do will affect what happens to your Company and the value of your holding in RHG.

We strongly urge you to vote FOR a reformed board with the election of Steven Johnson (resolution 3) and Greg
Hoffman (resolution 4) and AGAINST the re-election of David Coe (resolution 2).

RESOLUTION FOR AGAINST ABSTAIN

1 — To adopt the Remuneration Report for the year X
ended 30 June 2009
2 — To re-elect Mr David Coe as a Director X
3 — To elect Mr Steven Johnson as a Director X
4 — To elect Mr Gregory Hoffman as a Director X

Requisition of meeting

On 7 September 2009, RHG shareholders holding more than 5% of RHG’s issued shares, including interests
associated with The Intelligent Investor, requested RHG convene a general meeting. As a result of discussions with
the Company, the resolutions that were to be heard at a General Meeting will now be put to shareholders at the
Annual General Meeting on 12 November 2009.

We are proposing to remove one of the current directors and replace him with two directors more representative
of the Company’s diverse shareholder base. If the proposal is successful, the two new directors intend to
work with RHG’s three remaining directors to develop and communicate a clear plan for the maximisation of
shareholder value. This will include, where possible, the return of excess cash to shareholders in the form of fully-
franked dividends.

The proposed changes could have a significant impact on the Company so you should give careful consideration to
the merits of the proposal.

Background

When RHG (formerly RAMS Home Loans) originally listed in June 2007, the Company was a mortgage origination
business. Less than a month after listing, the overseas debt markets from which the Company obtained the
majority of its funding collapsed1. RHG was no longer able to source new funding, which meant it could no longer
write new loans.

In November 2007, RHG sold the RAMS brand to Westpac and RHG shareholders were left with a $15.0bn
mortgage book2 . These mortgages are held in special purpose vehicles (SPV) which are not owned by RHG. RHG
has a right (Future Servicing Right or FSR) to keep the difference between what these vehicles collect from their
customers and what they must pay to lenders who provide the funding to these SPVs.

As it is in run-off mode, the mortgage book decreases as the loans are repaid and will, one day, cease to be
profitable for RHG. In the interim, this FSR is a valuable asset. As at 30 June 2009, the mortgage portfolio had been
paid down to $7.7bn. But the profits generated have increased the net tangible assets on RHG’s balance sheet
from less than zero as at 30 June 2007 to $233.5m as at 30 June 2009, the last reporting date. This represents
72 cents per share based on the existing capital structure of the Company. This does not attribute any additional
value to the $48m of franking credits that have also been accrued3.

This increase in NTA as the mortgage book is run-off is illustrated in the following graph:

During the next five years, there is the potential for a further $120m of value, not including any return on the
existing assets or attributing any value to franking credits. This calculation is based on the directors’ forecast profit
of $55m–$65m for the 2010 financial year, and correspondingly lower profits in future years as the loan book
amortises.

Our concerns with the existing board

The board has not consistently communicated a strategy for returning this wealth to shareholders.

At the 2007 annual general meeting, just after the announcement of the sale of the RAMS brand to Westpac,
Chairman John Kinghorn stated that ‘After meeting all liabilities and subject to its ability to refinance some of all
of its warehouse and XCP programs, the directors intend to return all net income and surplus cash to shareholders
over time’. Despite refinancing all of its funding facilities (with the exception of $1bn of loans sold to NAB in 2008)
and generating a substantial amount of surplus cash, nothing has been returned to shareholders.

As at 30 June 2009, the Company had $47.9m in franking credits and $133.8m in unencumbered cash. RHG has
enough resources to pay a $65m fully franked dividend (20 cents per share) and still have almost $70m to meet its
tax liabilities and support the remaining credit facilities.

At the 2008 annual meeting, Kinghorn didn’t mention returning excess cash to shareholders but did indicate that
the Company may re-enter the Australian home loan market after November 2010.

Since our meeting requisition of meeting was put to the board on 7 September 2009, the directors have
provided shareholders with more information. In his Chairman’s letter in the 2009 Annual Report, John Kinghorn
confirmed that the directors are definitely going to seek a ‘superior alternative investment opportunity’ but
that this opportunity would be ‘submitted to shareholders for their consideration’. He also said that ‘if, by 2011,
the company has not identified a superior investment alternative, then your directors intend to distribute to
company’s surplus funds to shareholders in a [sic] optimal manner.’

The existing board is not representative of the company’s diverse shareholder base.

The RHG board only has four directors. Despite being paid a total of $403,500 in directors’ fees, the board only
held four (4) meetings in the 2009 financial year. Only one director, John McGuigan, managed to attend all four
meetings and David Coe made it to half - a total of two board meetings in a full financial year.

Details of attendances at RHG board meetings in the year ended 30 June 2009 are as follows:

Director No. of meetings held while a director No. of meetings attended Remuneration

JA Kinghorn 4 3 $163,500
DR Coe 4 2 $80,000
GK Jones 4 3 $80,000
JV McGuigan 4 4 $80,000

It is very rare for the board of a publicly listed company with a market capitalisation of more than $200m to attend
so few directors’ meetings; a crucial aspect of their duties as stewards of shareholders’ capital. David Coe was also
on the board of Allco Finance Group, which is currently in liquidation, and sold all of his shares in RHG in January
of this year.
The proposed solution

We are proposing a reconstruction of the RHG board by:

1. Removing David Coe as a director;

2. Appointing Steven Johnson and Gregory Hoffman as new directors to the board.

See Appendix A for more information on the two new proposed directors.

The two new directors would work with the rest of the board to develop a clear strategy for the maximisation
of shareholder wealth including, where possible, the return of surplus cash to shareholders in the form of
fully-franked dividends or return of capital. Once developed, this strategy would be clearly communicated to
shareholders, enabling you to make a fully informed decision about your investment in RHG.

It would seem that the move to call a general meeting has already resulted in the board substantially improving its
communication with shareholders. You can expect substantial further improvement if we are elected to the board.

The new five-member board would also be more representative of the RHG’s diverse shareholder base and more
appropriate for a company of this size and level of profitability.
