APPENDIX “A”

Purpose of issue and movement in number and class of all securities not quoted on ASX:

• 100,000 performance shares (AHDAW) have been transferred into ordinary shares (AHD) pursuant to the Amalgamated Holdings Limited Performance Share Plan (the “Plan”).

The shares have been released from the Plan’s performance hurdles on the retirement of an AHL Group employee. The AHL Group employee was a senior executive with over 43 years service within the AHL Group. The AHL Board approved the release of the shares as recognition of the employee’s service, commitment and length of tenure. On retirement the employee has forfeited an additional 31,323 performance shares. These forfeited shares will lapse to the Plan’s Trustee.

• 295,000 options (AHDAY) have been converted into ordinary shares (AHD) pursuant to the AHL Management Share Option Plan.

• See chapter 19 for defined terms.
