AMENDMENT NO. 5 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 5 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”).
Item 5.

Item 5 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and restated as below:
According to the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 15, 2011, there are 56,345,041 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 10, 2011.
(a) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person beneficially owns 15,503,465 shares of Common Stock, which represents 22.7% of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of Common Stock (including 7,212,802 Founder’s Warrants and 4,666,667 Sponsor’s Warrants outstanding and beneficially owned by the Reporting Person).
These 15,503,465 shares of Common Stock include 9,805,782 shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Person, 1,567 shares of Common Stock held by HH-HACI GP, LLC (“HH LLC”), of which the Reporting Person is the sole member, and 5,696,116 shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting Person’s charitable foundation and estate planning entities for the Reporting Person’s family. These 15,503,465 shares of Common Stock include Common Stock that would be issuable upon the exercise of Sponsor’s Warrants, which are exercisable if certain conditions (described in Item 6) are satisfied, and Common Stock that would be issuable upon the exercise of Founder’s Warrants, which are exercisable if certain conditions (described in Item 6) are satisfied.
The filing of this statement on this Amendment shall not be construed as an admission, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that the 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.
