AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) is being filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on behalf of Mr. Thomas O. Hicks (the “Reporting Person”)
relating to (a) shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) of Resolute
Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”); (b) Founder’s Warrants of the Issuer
(“Founder’s Warrants”), each of which is exercisable for one share of Common Stock; and (c)
Sponsor’s Warrants of the Issuer (“Sponsor’s Warrants”), each of which is exercisable for one share
of Common Stock. This Amendment modifies the original Schedule 13D filed on October 5, 2009, as
amended (the “Original 13D”).

Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock owned by HH LLC, the
Reporting Person’s charitable foundation or estate planning entities for the Reporting Person’s
family. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock in which
the Reporting Person does not have a pecuniary interest.
