Dear Oliver,

Appendix 3Y - Mr Peter Warne

The attached Appendix 3Y relates to an acquisition of 390 ASX shares on 20 December 2007. The shares were acquired by Mr Peter Warne through his broker, Next Financial Limited.

The shares were acquired without Mr Warne’s knowledge under a discretionary account. The account operated at the time under an agreed investment mandate, but subject to that mandate, investment decisions are, and were at the time, made by the broker. The account is subject to a standing instruction restricting the acquisition or disposal of ASX shares.

In this case, the 390 ASX shares were purchased on behalf of Mr Warne by his broker at the time, but specific notification of the purchase was not provided to Mr Warne. The purchase was contrary to the standing instruction, and so not expected by Mr Warne.

Since that time, Mr Warne has not updated the notification of his holding of ASX shares, as to his knowledge – until he became aware of this matter – there had been no change in his holding and because of his instructions, he had no cause to enquire.

To Mr Warne’s knowledge, the only ASX shares held by him were those he received on conversion of his SFE shares at the time of the ASX/SFE merger in 2006.

In the course of confirming his details for purposes of preparation of ASX’s 2011 Annual Report, Mr Warne recently became aware that the 390 ASX shares referred to in the attached Appendix 3Y were purchased on his behalf and that this acquisition had not been notified. After making enquiries to confirm that the information was correct, Mr Warne confirmed this matter to ASX on 3 August 2011.

The delay in notifying the market of this acquisition of shares was due to oversight and an error by Mr Warne’s broker with respect to the standing instruction. This situation has arisen because Mr Warne had no reason to expect that his details would need to be updated, on the basis that the standing instruction was in place.

There have been no previous instances of late lodgement of an Appendix 3Y by Mr Warne.

ASX has the following procedures in place to meet its obligations under listing rule 3.19A (and the obligations of directors under section 205G of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)):

• The procedure for appointment of new directors includes a shareholding check, confirmation of the new director’s ASX share holding with our share registry.

• Directors are obliged to provide ASX with the information required to make its disclosures under listing rule 3.19A.

• The procedure for preparation of ASX’s Annual Report includes confirmation by directors and senior executives of the number of ASX shares held directly and indirectly by them as at 30 June in the relevant financial year.

While ASX considers that these procedures are adequate to enable compliance with the relevant obligations, all directors and senior executives are being reminded of their obligations and asked to re-confirm their shareholding details in the course of preparation of the 2011 Annual Report. Mr Warne has reiterated his standing instructions to his broker in relation to ASX shares.

Both ASX and Mr Warne regret this oversight.

Yours sincerely,
