TODAY:
Dear Sir
Re GOLDEN WEST RESOURCES LIMITED
Fairstar Resources Limited (“Fairstar”) has determined to make an off market bid for all shares in
Golden West Resources Limited (“Golden West”).
Shareholders of Golden West will be offered 5 fully paid shares in Fairstar for every share held in
Golden West.
The offer to shareholders of Golden West reflects a premium of approximately 53 per cent to the
volume-weighted average price for shares in Golden West in the 30 trading days prior to 4
September 2007 and the volume-weighted average price for Fairstar shares in the same period.
Whilst retaining the all-scrip consideration, Fairstar reserves the right to offer Golden West
shareholders an alternative consideration that may include a cash component. A further
announcement regarding this alternative consideration will be made as soon as details are
available.
No separate offer will be made for Golden West's listed options (ASX Code: GWRO), with the
result that holders of those options will need to exercise them in order to participate in Fairstar's
offer.
Fairstar is in the process of preparing a formal Bidder's Statement and will lodge that document
with the Australian Securities Exchange and Australian Securities and Investments Commission
shortly.
The proposed offers will be subject to a number of conditions. Details of the offer conditions are
set out in Annexure A to this letter, which contains an extract from the draft Bidder's Statement.
Yours faithfully
KEVIN J. ROBERTSON
Managing Director
Fairstar Resources Limited
