21 October 2011

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of Super Retail Group Limited ( Super Retail Group ), I am pleased to invite you to participate in the future growth of Super Retail Group through an accelerated renounceable entitlement offer of New Shares ( Entitlement Offer ).

The proceeds of the Entitlement Offer (together with expanded debt facilities) will be used to fund the acquisition of Rebel Group Limited ( Rebel ) for $610 million.[1]

This is an exciting opportunity for Super Retail Group and the acquisition will position Super Retail Group as Australia’s #1 retailer of sporting and leisure products. Rebel is the clear market leader in the Australian sporting goods retail sector with 128 stores nationwide and an estimated 24% market share in a highly fragmented sporting goods retailing market. Together the businesses will have almost 550 stores and sales in excess of $1.7 billion.

The acquisition is expected to deliver mid single digit EPS accretion in FY12[2] (pre-synergies). The acquisition has the capacity to create significant shareholder value through the delivery of pre-tax synergies that are estimated by management to be in the order of $10 million on an annualised basis, of which approximately 50% are anticipated to be achieved in FY12. As a result, the Board of Super Retail Group expects that the acquisition will be value enhancing for those shareholders that participate for their full entitlement under the Entitlement Offer.

There is a natural strategic fit between the Super Retail Group and Rebel businesses. Rebel will complement Super Retail Group’s demonstrated strengths in product sourcing and brand building. In addition, Rebel’s loyalty program successes and sophisticated footfall monitoring technologies will further bolster Super Retail Group’s own strengths in these areas.

The acquisition meets Super Retail Group’s strict criteria for assessing acquisition opportunities, and provides Super Retail Group with an exciting opportunity to leverage its systems and processes to drive the future growth of Rebel to create value for Super Retail Group’s shareholders.

Under the Entitlement Offer, eligible shareholders will be able to purchase 9 New Shares for every 19 existing Super Retail Group ordinary shares ( Shares ) held on the Record Date of 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Thursday, 20 October 2011 ( Entitlement ). The offer price of $5.34 per New Share ( Offer Price ) represents a 17.8% discount to the closing market price of Shares on Friday, 14 October 2011 and a 12.8% discount to the theoretical ex-rights price ( TERP )[3] . New Shares issued under the Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing Shares.

The Entitlement Offer comprises an institutional component ( Institutional Entitlement Offer ) and a retail component ( Retail Entitlement Offer ). This booklet ( Retail Offer Booklet ) relates to the Retail Entitlement Offer and Entitlements allotted under it ( Retail Entitlements ).

1 The purchase price is before acquisition costs and is subject to a post completion adjustment based on Rebel’s working capital balance as at 29 October 2011.

2 EPS accretion calculated on a pro-forma basis. The funding costs relating to integration costs and transaction costs has been included, but the expensing of these costs has been excluded. In accordance with AASB 133, EPS calculations for all prior periods will be restated based on an adjustment factor to take into account the bonus element in the Entitlement Offer.

  • 3 The TERP is a theoretical price at which Super Retail Group shares trade immediately after the ex-date for the Entitlement Offer assuming 100% take-up of the Entitlement Offer. The TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Super Retail Group shares trade immediately after the ex-date for the Entitlement Offer will depend on many factors and may not be equal to TERP. TERP is calculated by reference to Super Retail Group’s closing price of $6.50 on Friday, 14 October 2011.

Options available to you Key considerations
1. Take up all or part of
your Entitlement

You may elect to purchase New Shares at the Offer Price (see Section 4.5.1 for
instructions on how to take up your Entitlement).

The New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will rank equally in all
respects with existing Super Retail Group ordinary shares on issue, including as to
dividend/distribution entitlements.

The Retail Entitlement Offer closes at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 16
November 2011.

If you only take up part of your Entitlement, you may choose to sell or transfer the
balance (see Option 2) or you may do nothing and let that part lapse (see Option 3)
and allow New Shares in respect of that part of your Entitlement to be sold in the Retail
Shortfall Bookbuild.
2. Sell or transfer all or
part of your Entitlement

If you do not wish to take up all or part of your Entitlement, you may be able to sell all
or part of your Entitlement on ASX through your broker (see Section 4.5.2) or transfer
your Entitlement directly to another person (see Section 4.5.3).

Retail Entitlements may be traded on ASX from Thursday, 20 October 2011 to
Wednesday, 9 November 2011 (ASX code: SULR). You may incur brokerage costs if
you sell your Entitlement on ASX.

The proceeds of any sale should be treated as capital gains for Australian tax purposes
(see Section 5.1).

If you sell all of your Entitlements in the Retail Entitlement trading period, you may
receive a higher or lower amount than a shareholder who sells their Entitlement at a
different time in the Retail Entitlement trading period or through the Retail Shortfall
Bookbuild. You will also forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of
New Shares had you taken up that Entitlement. Your percentage shareholding in Super
Retail Group will also be diluted.

If you only sell or transfer part of your Entitlement, you may choose to take up the
remainder (see Option 1) or you may do nothing and let that part lapse (see Option 3)
and allow New Shares in respect of that part of your Entitlement to be sold in the Retail
Shortfall Bookbuild.

By selling or transferring all or part of your Entitlement you will also forgo any exposure
to increases or decreases in the value of New Shares had you taken up that part of
your Entitlement. Your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will also be
diluted.

Options available to you Key considerations
3. Let your Entitlement
lapse

New Shares in respect of Entitlements not taken up, sold on the ASX or transferred
to another person will be sold through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild on Monday,
21 November 2011 and you will receive any Retail Premium (see Section 4.5.4).
There is no guarantee that there will be any Retail Premium.

You will not incur brokerage costs on any Retail Premium received from the Retail
Shortfall Bookbuild.

The Retail Premium received from the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild is likely to be treated
as unfranked dividend or ordinary income for Australian tax purposes and the tax
consequences may be different to selling your Entitlement on the ASX (or via direct
transfer) (see Section 5).

By letting your Entitlement lapse you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases
in the value of New Shares had you taken up that Entitlement (or any value for that
Entitlement which may have been achieved through its sale on ASX or otherwise). Your
percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will also be diluted.

If you are an Australian tax resident shareholder, and you have not previously provided
your TFN or ABN to Super Retail Group, you may wish to do so prior to the close of the
Retail Entitlement Offer to ensure that withholding tax is not deducted from any Retail
Premium at the rate of 46.5%. You are able to provide your TFN or ABN online with the
Super Retail Group Share Registry at www.linkmarketservices.com.au.

4.1 Overview of the Entitlement Offer

Eligible shareholders are being offered the opportunity to purchase 9 New Shares for every 19 existing Shares held as at the Record Date of 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Thursday, 20 October 2011, at the Offer Price of $5.34 per New Share.

The Entitlement Offer is comprised of four components:

  • Institutional Entitlement Offer – Eligible Institutional Shareholders (as defined in Section 7.2) were given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement. Entitlements under the Institutional Entitlement Offer ( Institutional Entitlements ) were renounceable and were not able to trade on ASX;

  • Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild – New Shares in respect of Institutional Entitlements not taken up, and New Shares that would have represented Entitlements of ineligible institutional shareholders were sold through a bookbuild process on Wednesday, 19 October 2011 ( Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild ). No premium was paid over the Offer Price for New Shares which were sold under the Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild. Accordingly, Eligible Institutional Shareholders who did not take up all of their Entitlements, as well as ineligible institutional shareholders, will not receive any consideration for each New Share not taken up;

  • Retail Entitlement Offer – Eligible Retail Shareholders (as defined in Section 7.1) will be allotted Retail Entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer which can be taken up in whole or in part, or traded on ASX (or transferred directly to another person) in whole or in part. This means that if you do not wish to take up all or part of your Entitlement you may sell on ASX or transfer all or part of your Entitlement in order to realise value from your Entitlement. You may incur brokerage costs if you sell your Entitlement on ASX; and

  • Retail Shortfall Bookbuild – New Shares in respect of Retail Entitlements which are not taken up by the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer and New Shares that would have represented Entitlements of Ineligible Retail Shareholders (as defined in Section 4.6), will be sold through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild. Any Retail Premium will be remitted proportionally to holders of those Retail Entitlements at the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer, and to Ineligible Retail Shareholders.

You have a number of decisions to make in respect of your Entitlement. These decisions may materially affect the value (if any) that may be received in respect of your Entitlement. You should read this Retail Offer Booklet carefully before making any decisions in relation to your Entitlement.

You should note that the taxation outcome if you choose to sell your Entitlement on ASX (or otherwise transfer it) may be different to the taxation outcome if you do nothing in respect of an Entitlement and receive any Retail Premium for the sale of that Entitlement through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild. You should read Section 5 “Australian taxation considerations” of this Retail Offer Booklet for further information.

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by the Underwriters. Further details on the Retail Entitlement Offer and Retail Shortfall Bookbuild are set out below.

4.2 The Retail Entitlement Offer

Under the Retail Entitlement Offer, Eligible Retail Shareholders are invited to apply for 9 New Shares for every 19 existing Shares held as at the Record Date at the Offer Price of $5.34 per New Share.

The offer ratio and Offer Price under the Retail Entitlement Offer are the same as for the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on Friday, 21 October 2011 and will close at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 16 November 2011.

Super Retail Group

==> picture [74 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

4.3 Your Entitlement

Your Entitlement is set out on the accompanying personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form and has been calculated as 9 New Shares for every 19 existing Shares you held as at the Record Date. If the result is not a whole number, your Entitlement will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.

If you have more than one registered holding of Shares, you will be sent more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form and you will have a separate Entitlement for each separate holding.

New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and rank equally in all respects with existing Super Retail Group ordinary shares on issue, including as to dividend/distribution entitlements.

See Sections 7.1, 7.11 and 7.13 for information on restrictions on participation.

4.4 Consider the Retail Entitlement Offer carefully in light of your particular investment objectives and circumstances

The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made pursuant to provisions of the Corporations Act which allow entitlement offers to be made without a prospectus. This Retail Offer Booklet does not contain all of the information which may be required in order to make an informed decision regarding an application for New Shares offered under the Retail Entitlement Offer. As a result, it is important for you to read carefully and understand the information on Super Retail Group and the Retail Entitlement Offer made publicly available, prior to deciding whether to take up all or part of your Entitlement, sell or transfer all or part of your Entitlement or do nothing in respect of your Entitlement. In particular, please refer to this Retail Offer Booklet and other announcements made available at www.superretailgroup.com.au.

Please consult with your stockbroker, accountant or other professional adviser if you have any queries or are uncertain about any aspect of the Retail Entitlement Offer. You should also refer to the “Key risks” section of the Super Retail Group Investor Presentation included in Section 6 of this Retail Offer Booklet.

4.5 Options available to you

You may take any of the following actions. Each of these options may have a materially different outcome on any value you receive in respect of your Entitlement.

  1. Take up all or part of your Entitlement (see Section 4.5.1);

  2. Sell all or part of your Entitlement:

  3. on ASX (see Section 4.5.2); or

  4. by transferring it directly to another person (see Section 4.5.3)

  5. Do nothing and let your Entitlement lapse (see Section 4.5.4)

4.5.1 If you wish to take up all or part of your Entitlement

If you wish to take up all or part of your Entitlement, please complete and return the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form with the requisite Application Monies OR pay your Application Monies via BPAY by following the instructions set out on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

If you take up and pay for all or part of your Entitlement before the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer, it is expected that you will be issued New Shares on Tuesday 29 November 2011. Super Retail Group’s decision on the number of New Shares to be issued to you will be final.

Super Retail Group also reserves the right (in its absolute discretion) to reduce the number of New Shares issued (or any Retail Premium paid to Eligible Retail Shareholders, or persons claiming to be Eligible Retail Shareholders), if Super Retail Group believes their claims to be overstated or if they or their nominees fail to provide information to substantiate their claims to Super Retail Group’s satisfaction (see Section 7.4).

4.5.2 If you wish to sell all or part of your Entitlement on ASX

If you wish to sell all or part of your Entitlement on ASX, you should instruct your stockbroker and provide details as requested from your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Allow sufficient time for your instructions to be carried out by your stockbroker. Please note you may incur brokerage if you choose to sell your Entitlement on ASX.

Entitlement trading on ASX starts on Thursday, 20 October 2011 (ASX code: SULR) and ceases at 4.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 9 November 2011. You may incur brokerage costs if you choose to sell your Entitlement on ASX. There is no guarantee that there will be a liquid market in traded Entitlements. A lack of liquidity may impact your ability to sell your Entitlement on ASX and the price you may be able to achieve.

This Retail Offer Booklet, along with your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, will be despatched on Wednesday, 26 October 2011. Super Retail Group will have no responsibility and disclaims all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to you if you trade your Entitlement before the Retail Entitlements are allotted, or before you receive your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by Super Retail Group or the Super Retail Group Share Registry or otherwise.

If you wish to sell part of your Entitlement on ASX and let the balance lapse, follow the procedures above in respect of the part of your Entitlement you wish to sell on ASX, and do nothing in respect of the balance. You will receive the Retail Premium (if any) in respect of those lapsed Entitlements through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

Prices obtainable for Retail Entitlements may rise and fall over the Retail Entitlement trading period and will depend on many factors including the demand for and supply of Entitlements on ASX and the value of Super Retail Group existing Shares relative to the Offer Price. If you sell your Entitlement in the Retail Entitlement trading period, you may receive a higher or lower amount than a shareholder who sells their Entitlement at a different time in the Retail Entitlement trading period or through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

If you sell your Entitlement, you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up that Entitlement. Your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will also be diluted.

4.5.3 If you wish to transfer all or part of your Entitlement other than on ASX

If you wish to transfer all or part of your Entitlement other than on ASX, you must forward a completed Renunciation and Transfer Form to the Super Retail Group Share Registry in relation to the part of your Entitlement that you wish to transfer. If the transferee wishes to take up all or part of the Entitlement transferred to them, they must send their Application Monies together with the Entitlement and Acceptance Form related to the Entitlement transferred to them to the Super Retail Group Share Registry.

You can obtain a Renunciation and Transfer Form through the Super Retail Group Offer Information Line (on 1800 170 502 (within Australia) or +61 2 8280 7323 (outside Australia)) or from your stockbroker. The Renunciation and Transfer Form as well as the transferee’s Application Monies and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form related to the Entitlement transferred to them must be received by the Super Retail Group Share Registry at the mail or hand delivery address in Section 4.12 no later than 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 16 November 2011.

If the Super Retail Group Share Registry receives both a completed Renunciation and Transfer Form and an application for New Shares in respect of the same Entitlement, the transfer will take priority over the application.

If you wish to transfer part of your Entitlement and allow the balance to lapse, follow the procedures above in respect of the part of your Entitlement you wish to transfer, and do nothing in respect of the balance. You will receive the Retail Premium (if any) in respect of those lapsed Entitlements through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

Prices obtainable for Retail Entitlements quoted on ASX may rise and fall over the Retail Entitlement trading period and will depend on many factors including the demand for and supply of Entitlements on ASX and the price of Shares relative to the Offer Price. If you sell your Entitlements in the Retail Entitlement trading period, you may receive a higher or lower amount compared to a shareholder who sells their Entitlements at a different time in the Retail Entitlement trading period or through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

If you transfer your Entitlement, you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up that Entitlement. Your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will also be diluted.

Super Retail Group

==> picture [74 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

You may only transfer your Entitlement in this way to a purchaser whose address is in Australia or New Zealand, who is not in the United States and is not acting for a person in the United States. Transferees of Entitlements that do not have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand that are in the United States or that are acting for a person in the United States will not be eligible to take up Entitlements. You should inform any transferee of these restrictions.

See Sections 7.1, 7.9 and 7.13 for more information on restrictions on participation.

4.5.4 If you wish to let your Entitlement lapse

Any Entitlements which you do not take up, sell or transfer will lapse and New Shares in respect of those Entitlements will be sold through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild on Monday, 21 October 2011 to eligible institutional investors. You will receive the Retail Premium (if any) in respect of those lapsed Entitlements through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild (see Section 4.7).

By allowing your Entitlement to lapse you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up that Entitlement (or any value for that Entitlement which may have been achieved through its sale on ASX or otherwise). Your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will also be diluted.

4.6 Ineligible Retail Shareholders

Shareholders who are not Eligible Retail Shareholders and who are not institutional shareholders (whether or not eligible to participate under the Institutional Entitlement Offer) ( Ineligible Retail Shareholders ) will receive the Retail Premium (if any) for Entitlements they would have received had they been eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

4.7 Retail Shortfall Bookbuild

New Shares in respect of Entitlements which are not taken up by close of the Retail Entitlement Offer, and New Shares that would have represented Entitlements of Ineligible Retail Shareholders, will be sold through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild. Any Retail Premium (being any premium paid over the Offer Price in respect of those New Shares) will be remitted proportionally to holders at the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer of those lapsed Retail Entitlements, and to Ineligible Retail Shareholders.

Retail Premium amounts, if any, will be paid in either Australian dollars or New Zealand dollars based on your registered address. You will be paid either by cheque sent by ordinary post to your address as recorded on the share register (the registered address of the first-named in the case of joint holders), or by direct credit to the nominated bank account as noted on the Share Register.

The Retail Premium may be zero, in which case no payment will be made to holders of those lapsed Entitlements and Ineligible Retail Shareholders. To avoid doubt, the outcome of the Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild (including that there was no premium over the Offer Price at which New Shares were sold under the Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild) is not an indication as to whether there will be a Retail Premium or what any Retail Premium may be.

The ability to sell New Shares under the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild and the ability to obtain any Retail Premium will depend on various factors, including market conditions. If there is a Retail Premium, it may be less than, more than, or equal to the Institutional Premium or less than, more than or equal to any price or prices that Entitlements may be able to be sold on ASX or otherwise transferred. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Super Retail Group, the Underwriters and each of their respective related bodies corporate and affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives and agents, disclaim all liability, including for negligence, for any failure to procure a Retail Premium under the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild, for any difference between the Retail Premium and the Institutional Premium and for any failure to obtain any particular exchange rate, or any movements in exchange rates, if exchanging the Retail Premium into New Zealand dollar funds. Super Retail Group reserves the right to issue New Shares under the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild at its discretion.

You should note that if you sell or transfer all or part of your Entitlement or allow all or part of your Entitlement to lapse, then your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will be diluted by your non-participation in the Retail Entitlement Offer.

If your Tax File Number (TFN) or Australian Business Number (ABN) is not recorded by the Super Retail Group Share Registry, Super Retail Group may be obliged to withhold tax in relation to any Retail Premium paid to you in respect of your Entitlement under the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild. References in this Retail Offer Booklet to the payment of any such proceeds are to be interpreted as net of any applicable withholding tax. Refer to Section 5.2 for further details.

4.8 Payment

You can pay in the following ways:

  • by BPAY; or

  • by cheque, bank draft or money order.

Cash payments will not be accepted. Receipts for payment will not be issued.

Super Retail Group will treat you as applying for as many New Shares as your payment will pay for in full up to your Entitlement.

Any Application Monies received for more than your final allocation of New Shares will be refunded as soon as practicable after the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer. No interest will be paid to applicants on any Application Monies received or refunded.

Payment by BPAY

For payment by BPAY, please follow the instructions on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make payment via BPAY if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY transactions.

If you are paying by BPAY, please make sure you use the specific Biller Code and your unique Customer Reference Number ( CRN ) on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. If you have multiple holdings and consequently receive more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those holdings only use the CRN specific to that holding set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form. If you do not use the correct CRN specific to that holding, as set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form, your application will not be recognised as valid.

Please note that should you choose to pay by BPAY:

  • you do not need to submit your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to make the declarations, representations and warranties on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • if you do not pay for your full Entitlement, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of New Shares which is covered in full by your Application Monies.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your BPAY payment is received by the Super Retail Group Share Registry by no later than 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 16 November 2011. You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration in the timing of when you make payment.

Payment by cheque, bank draft or money order

For payment by cheque, bank draft or money order, you should complete your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions on the form and return it accompanied by a cheque, bank draft or money order in Australian currency for the amount of the Application Monies, payable to “Super Retail Group Retail Offer” and crossed “Not Negotiable”.

Your cheque, bank draft or money order must be:

  • for an amount equal to $5.34 multiplied by the number of New Shares that you are applying for; and

  • in Australian currency drawn on an Australian branch of a financial institution.

You should ensure that sufficient funds are held in relevant account(s) to cover the Application Monies as your cheque will be processed on the day of receipt. If the amount of your cheque for Application Monies (or the amount for which the cheque clears in time for allocation) is insufficient to pay in full for the number of New Shares you have applied for in your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you will be taken to have applied for such lower whole number of New Shares as your cleared Application Monies will pay for (and to have specified that number of New Shares on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form). Alternatively, your application will not be accepted.

This section is a general summary of the Australian income tax, capital gains tax and stamp duty implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for Eligible Retail Shareholders.

The taxation implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer will vary depending upon your particular circumstances. Accordingly, you should seek and rely upon your own professional advice before concluding on the particular taxation treatment that will apply to you.

Neither Super Retail Group nor any of its officers or employees, nor its taxation or other advisers, accepts any liability or responsibility in respect of any statement concerning taxation consequences, or in respect of the taxation consequences.

The comments in this section deal only with the Australian taxation implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer if you hold Shares on capital account and are a resident for Australian income tax purposes. Accordingly, the comments do not apply to you if you hold your Shares on revenue account, as trading stock or have acquired your Shares for the purpose of on-sale at a profit.

The comments in this section are general in nature and are based on the Australian tax legislation and administrative practice in force as at the date of this Retail Offer Booklet.

These comments also do not apply to trustees of employee share schemes or if you acquire New Shares pursuant to any employee share scheme.

The issue of the Entitlements will not itself result in any amount being included in your assessable income.

5.1 Sale of Entitlements

If you sell your Entitlement on ASX or otherwise, you should derive a capital gain for CGT purposes equal to the sale proceeds less certain costs of disposal. The proceeds from the sale of Entitlements should not be treated as ordinary income.

Individuals, complying superannuation entities or trustees that have held their existing Shares for at least 12 months prior to the date of disposal, should be entitled to discount the amount of a capital gain resulting from the sale of the Entitlements (after the application of any current year or carry forward capital losses). The amount of this discount is 50% for individuals and trustees and 33[1] /3% for complying superannuation entities. This is referred to as the “CGT discount”. The CGT discount is not available for companies that are not trustees. Trustees should seek specific tax advice regarding the tax consequences arising to beneficiaries because of discount capital gains.

Notwithstanding the above, recent statements by the Australian Taxation Office have not expressly dealt with the sale of entitlements on ASX or off-market. You are advised to obtain professional advice as to the taxation treatment of such proceeds.

5.2 Entitlements not taken up

Any Entitlements not taken up by you will lapse.

New Shares in respect of lapsed Entitlements will be sold in the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild. Any Retail Premium will be remitted as a cash payment to you.

The Commissioner of Taxation ( Commissioner ) expressed the view in Taxation Alert TA 2009/11 “Retail Premiums paid on unexercised share entitlements” and the accompanying Fact Sheet, dated 19 May 2009, that any Retail Premium received by you in these circumstances is to be treated as either an unfranked dividend or as ordinary income. This view was reaffirmed in Draft Taxation Ruling TR 2010/D8 issued on 10 December 2010.

On that basis, whether the proceeds are treated as an unfranked dividend or as ordinary income, the Retail Premium will be subject to tax on income account without the benefit of any tax offsets such as dividend imputation. As a consequence, you will not be able to apply the capital gains tax discount, nor be able to offset the Retail Premium with any capital losses.

It is not clear whether the position adopted by the Commissioner is correct at law. Nevertheless, at present, the description above is a summary of the manner in which the Commissioner will apply the law, and the Commissioner may expect that you would treat the Retail Premium as an unfranked dividend or ordinary income. You are advised to obtain professional advice as to the taxation treatment of such proceeds.

Super Retail Group

==> picture [477 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [74 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

Given the Commissioner’s position, Super Retail Group considers that it will be obliged to withhold tax in relation to any Retail Premium on sale of your Entitlement under the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild unless you have provided your Tax File Number ( TFN ) or Australian Business Number ( ABN ).

If you are an Australian tax resident shareholder, and you have not previously provided your TFN or ABN to Super Retail Group, you may wish to do so prior to the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer to ensure that withholding tax is not deducted from any Retail Premium payable to you at the rate of 46.5%. You are able to provide your TFN or ABN online with the Super Retail Group Share Registry at www.linkmarketservices.com.au. When providing your details online, you will be required to enter your Security Reference Number (SRN) or Holder Identification Number (HIN) as shown on your Issuer Sponsored/CHESS statements and other personal details such as your postcode.

5.3 Taking up of Entitlements

No income tax or capital gains tax liability will arise on the taking up of Entitlements.

If you take up all or part of your Entitlement, you will acquire New Shares. The cost base of each New Share for CGT purposes will be equal to the Offer Price plus any non-deductible incidental costs you incur in acquiring New Shares.

New Shares will be taken to have been acquired on the day you exercise the Entitlements. Note that the comments above are only relevant where you currently hold Shares in Super Retail Group which are taken to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 for tax purposes.

5.4 Dividends on New Shares as a result of Entitlements taken up

Any future dividends or other distributions made in respect of New Shares will be subject to the same income taxation treatment as dividends or other distributions made on existing Shares held in the same circumstances.

5.5 Disposal of New Shares

The disposal of a New Share will constitute a disposal for CGT purposes.

On disposal of a New Share, you will make a net capital gain if the capital proceeds net of transaction fees on disposal exceed the total cost base of the New Share. You will make a net capital loss if the capital proceeds net of transaction fees are less than the total reduced cost base of the New Share. The cost base of New Shares is described above in Section 5.3.

Individuals, trustees or complying superannuation entities that have held New Shares for 12 months or more at the time of disposal should be entitled to apply the applicable CGT discount factor to reduce the capital gain (after offsetting capital losses). The CGT discount factor is 50% for individuals and trustees and 33[1] /3% for complying superannuation entities.

New Shares will be treated for the purposes of the capital gains tax discount as having been acquired when you exercise your Entitlement. Accordingly, in order to benefit from the CGT discount in respect of a disposal of those New Shares, New Shares must have been held for at least 12 months after the date of being taken up before the disposal occurs.

If you make a capital loss, you can only use that loss to offset other capital gains from other sources; i.e. the capital loss cannot be used against taxable income on revenue account. However, if the capital loss cannot be used in a particular income year it can be carried forward to use in future income years, providing certain tests are satisfied.

5.6 Taxation of Financial Arrangements (TOFA)

The Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 ( TOFA Amendments ) made amendments to the Australian income tax law that operate to make assessable or deductible, gains or losses arising from certain “financial arrangements”. The TOFA Amendments will apply for income tax years commencing on or after 1 July 2010 unless a valid election has been made for the TOFA Amendments to apply from an earlier date. A valid election can also be made to apply the TOFA Amendments to existing financial arrangements held at the relevant start date.

An entitlement or right to receive a share is a “financial arrangement”. However, depending on the circumstances of the particular taxpayer, the TOFA Amendments may be effectively excluded from applying. Further, certain taxpayers (including many individuals) may be excluded from the application of the TOFA Amendments unless they make a valid election for it to apply.

As the application of the TOFA Amendments is dependent on the particular facts and circumstances of the taxpayer, you should obtain your own advice in relation to the potential applicability of the amendments contained in the TOFA Amendments, in light of your own individual facts and circumstances.

5.7 Other Australian taxes

No Australian Goods and Services Tax ( GST ) or stamp duty will be payable in respect of the issue, sale or taking up of Entitlements or the acquisition of New Shares.

6.1 Super Retail Group Investor Presentation dated Monday, 17 October 2011 cont

Key risks

This section discusses the key risks attaching to an investment in shares in Super Retail Group, which may affect the future operating and financial performance of Super Retail Group and the value of Super Retail Group shares (before and after the proposed acquisition of Rebel Group). Before investing in Super Retail Group shares, you should consider whether this investment is suitable for you having regard to publicly available information (including this Presentation), your personal circumstances and following consultation with financial or other professional advisers. Additional risks and uncertainties that Super Retail Group is unaware of, or that it currently considers to be immaterial, may also become important factors that adversely affect Super Retail Group’s operating and financial performance.

Operational risks

Competition Super Retail Group operates in a competitive market. Super Retail Group’s financial performance or operating margins could be adversely affected if the actions of competitors or potential competitors become more effective, or if new competitors enter the market, and Super Retail Group is unable to counter these actions. Sustainability of growth

The continued strong growth in sales and profitability of Super Retail Group is dependent upon a number of factors, including Super Retail Group’s ability to refurbish existing stores and open new stores on a profitable basis, maturation of new stores and appropriate product selection.

Maintaining existing store sales growth

The opening of new stores by Super Retail Group may in some instances reduce the sales of nearby Super Retail Group stores to a greater extent than anticipated. As more products stocked by Super Retail Group are manufactured in lower cost countries (for example, China), the retail price of those products may fall and Super Retail Group’s existing store growth may be adversely affected.

Changing consumer preferences and buying patterns

Super Retail Group operates in a highly competitive retail market exhibiting low barriers to entry. In such an environment, consumer preferences are dynamic and subject to change with changes in the economy. Customer demand and buying patterns are also difficult to accurately assess in this uncertain and highly competitive retail environment. In addition to this, a significant proportion of Super Retail Group’s revenues are generated from non-essential items, which are subject to changes in customer preferences. Misjudgements in demand or changes in customer preferences could result in overstocked or understocked inventory and/or lower gross margins as a result of markdowns. In addition, misjudging customer preferences and failing to accurately anticipate buying patterns may result in lower revenue and margins and could adversely impact Super Retail Group’s future financial performance.

Threat of online retailers

Various uncertainties and difficulties facing traditional retailers in the Australian retail industry have given rise to increasing competition in the online retail space. Lower overhead costs, low barriers to entry and a greater level of flexibility in responding to changing consumer preferences and demand will allow online retailers to compete with traditional retailers including Super Retail Group for market share. Super Retail Group will need to continually implement strategies to combat this increased level of competition from online retailers. Any loss of market share to online retailers could result in lost revenues and a decline in financial performance to Super Retail Group if it is unable to successfully combat the threat of online competitors.

New store rollout program may not meet its objectives

Super Retail Group’s growth forecast is contingent on a planned rollout strategy of additional stores around Australia. Super Retail Group’s ability to successfully open new stores in accordance with the planned schedule may be affected by a number of factors including project delays, cost overruns and disputes with developers. Any failure to achieve the objectives of the new store rollout program could adversely impact Super Retail Group’s future financial performance. Brand names may diminish in reputation and value

Brand names are crucial assets to each of the businesses within Super Retail Group and the success of Super Retail Group is heavily reliant on its reputation and branding. Unforeseen issues or events which place Super Retail Group’s reputation at risk may impact on its future growth and profitability. The reputation and value associated with these brand names could be adversely impacted by a number of factors, including failure to provide customers with the quality of product and service standards they expect, disputes or litigation with third parties such as employees, suppliers or customers, or adverse media coverage. In particular, significant erosion in the reputation of, or value associated with, the Rebel and A-Mart brand names if the proposed acquisition goes ahead could have an adverse effect on Super Retail Group’s future financial performance and financial position.

Decline in economic activity

The Australian retail environment in which Super Retail Group operates is currently experiencing challenging conditions due to volatility in consumer sentiment and retail demand. These conditions have arisen largely as a result of uncertainty about future Australian and international economic conditions, which has been precipitated by factors including the global financial crisis. If Australian economic conditions worsen, there is a risk that the retail environment will deteriorate as consumers reduce their level of consumption or redirect their spending to cheaper products or stores. A reduction in consumer spending or a change in spending patterns is likely to result in a reduction in Super Retail Group’s revenue and may have a material adverse effect on future financial performance and financial position.

Super Retail Group

Key risks

Relationship with suppliers

Super Retail Group relies on numerous key suppliers in Australia, New Zealand and China. Any loss of these key suppliers may have an adverse affect on Super Retail Group’s sales and/or terms of trade. In addition, any change in Super Retail Group’s relationship with its suppliers, or in terms of trade, could have an adverse impact on Super Retail Group’s prospects.

Approximately 30% of the sales are generated by products directly imported by Super Retail Group. The concentration of Super Retail Group’s suppliers in China makes Super Retail Group vulnerable to the political and economic environments in that country, including movements in the Chinese Yuan/United States dollar exchange rate, which could have a material adverse effect on Super Retail Group’s ability to source products at competitive prices. Material increases in suppliers’ production costs could lead to higher costs and therefore impact Super Retail Group’s margins, or require Super Retail Group to source products from other locations. In this event, existing gross margins may not be able to be maintained. In addition, any delays in lead times on orders from suppliers could impact Super Retail Group’s sales.

Operating costs

Super Retail Group’s ability to consistently offer low prices and operate profitably is dependent on a combination of the scalability of its operations and the costs of its operating structure. Super Retail Group’s ability to maintain a relatively low cost operating structure is not guaranteed and there is no assurance that these low operating costs can be maintained.

Property leases

The growth prospects of Super Retail Group are likely to result from increased contribution from existing stores and Super Retail Group’s ability to continue to open and operate new stores on a profitable basis. The ability to identify suitable sites and negotiate suitable leasing terms is the key to these plans. Further, management’s ability to renegotiate acceptable lease terms for existing stores where leases are due to expire is vital to ongoing profitability. A number of existing Rebel Group leases do not contain options to renew. Accordingly, if Super Retail is not able to renew those leases, or is not able to renew those leases on materially the same terms, this may impact Super Retail’s ability to procure preferred store sites on suitable leasing terms and may have an adverse impact on Super Retail’s financial performance.

Information technology

Super Retail Group has invested significantly in the development of management information, point of sales systems and other information technology systems designed to maximise the efficiency of Super Retail Group’s operations. Should these systems not be adequately maintained, secured or updated, or Super Retail Groups disaster recovery processes not be adequate, system failures may negatively impact on Super Retail Group’s performance.

Reliance on key personnel

Super Retail Group’s growth and profitability may be limited by the loss of key senior management personnel, the inability to attract new suitably qualified personnel or by increased compensation costs associated with attracting and retaining key personnel.

Key risks

Integration risk

The acquisition involves the integration of the Rebel Group business, which has previously operated independently to Super Retail Group. As a result, there is a risk that the integration of Rebel Group may be more complex than currently anticipated, encounter unexpected challenges or issues and takes longer than expected, diverts management attention or does not deliver the expected benefits and this may affect Super Retail Group’s operating and financial performance. Further, the integration of Rebel Group’s accounting functions may lead to revisions, which may impact on the Combined Group’s reported financial results. Historical liability

If the acquisition of Rebel Group completes, Super Retail Group may become directly or indirectly liable for any liabilities that Rebel Group has incurred in the past, which were not identified during its due diligence or which are greater than expected, and for which the market standard protection (in the form of insurance, representations and warranties and indemnities) negotiated by Super Retail Group prior to its agreement to acquire Rebel Group turns out to be inadequate in the circumstances. Such liability may adversely affect the financial performance or position of Super Retail Group post-acquisition.

Acquisition accounting

In accounting for the acquisition in the pro-forma combined balance sheet, Super Retail Group has performed a preliminary fair value assessment of all of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of Rebel Group . Super Retail Group will undertake a formal fair value assessment of all of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of Rebel Group post-acquisition, which may give rise to a materially different fair value allocation to that used for purposes of the pro-forma financial information set out in this Presentation. Such a scenario will result in a reallocation of the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired to or from goodwill and also an increase or decrease in depreciation and amortisation charges in the Combined Group’s income statement (and a respective increase or decrease in net profit after tax).

Change of control

The acquisition may trigger change of control clauses in the leases for a number Rebel Group stores, and other material contracts to which Rebel Group is a party. Where triggered, the change of control clauses will in most cases require landlord or counterparty consent. If any of the leases or material contracts containing a change of control clause are terminated or renegotiated on less favourable terms, it may have an adverse impact on Super Retail's financial performance and prospects.

General risks (1)

Market

The market price of Super Retail Group shares will fluctuate due to various factors, many of which are non-specific to Super Retail Group, including recommendations by brokers and analysts, Australian and international general economic conditions, inflation rates, interest rates, changes in government, fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies, global geo-political events and hostilities and acts of terrorism, and investor perceptions. In the future, these factors may cause Super Retail Group shares to trade at a lower price.

Exchange rates

Super Retail Group is exposed to movements in exchange rates. Super Retail Group’s financial statements are maintained in Australian dollars. However, a portion of Super Retail Group’s income is earned in New Zealand dollars. In addition, some expenses are driven by the cost of imports given approximately 30% of sales are generated by products directly imported by Super Retail Group, particularly from China. Exchange rate movements affecting these currencies may impact the profit and loss account or assets and liabilities of Super Retail Group, to the extent the foreign exchange rate risk is not hedged or not appropriately hedged.

(1) A reference to Super Retail Group in this part entitled ‘General risks’ should be taken as including Rebel Group assuming the proposed acquisition is completed.

Interest rates While Super Retail Group takes reasonable steps to protect itself through the use of hedges, rising interest rates may nonetheless adversely impact Super Retail Group’s interest payments on its floating rate borrowings and inflation in underlying input costs may also adversely impact the performance of Super Retail Group’s business.

Domestic and global economic conditions

The Australian and global economies continue to experience challenging economic conditions. Any further deterioration in the domestic and global economy may have a material adverse effect on the performance of Super Retail Group’s business.

Asset impairment As a consequence of the global financial crisis, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission has specifically identified impairment of assets as an issue for Australian companies. The Super Retail Group board regularly monitors impairment risk. Consistent with accounting standards, Super Retail Group is periodically required to assess the carrying values of its assets. Where the value of an asset (including an asset owned by Rebel Group post-acquisition) is to be less than its carrying value, Super Retail Group is obliged to recognise an impairment change in its profit and loss account. Impairment charges can be significant and operate to reduce the level of a company’s profits and potentially, its capacity to pay dividends. Impairment charges are a non-cash item. Changes in accounting policy Accounting standards may change. This may affect the reported earnings of Super Retail Group and its financial position from time to time. Taxation Future changes in Australian taxation law, including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia, may affect taxation treatment of an investment in Super Retail Group shares or the holding and disposal of those shares. Further, changes in tax law, or changes in the way tax law is expected to be interpreted, in the various jurisdictions in which Super Retail Group operates, may impact the future tax liabilities of Super Retail Group. Litigation Super Retail Group is subject to the usual business risk that disputes or litigation may arise from time to time in the course of its business activities. Dividends The payment of dividends on Super Retail Group’s shares is dependent on a range of factors including the profitability of its group, the availability of cash, capital requirements of the business and obligations under debt instruments. Any future dividend levels will be determined by the Super Retail Group board having regard to its operating results and financial position at the relevant time. That said, there is no guarantee that any dividend will be paid by Super Retail Group or, if paid, that they will be paid at previous levels. Legislative and regulatory changes Legislative or regulatory changes, including property or environmental regulations or regulatory changes in relation to products sold by Super Retail Group, could have an adverse impact on Super Retail Group. 39 Key risks Risks associated with renouncing entitlements under the Entitlement Offer Prices obtainable for entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer may rise and fall over the entitlement trading period. If you sell your entitlements at one stage in the Retail Entitlement Offer trading period, you may receive a higher or lower price than a shareholder who sells their entitlements at a different stage in the Retail Entitlement Offer trading period or through the retail shortfall bookbuild. If you are a shareholder and renounce your entitlement by doing nothing under the Entitlement Offer, there is no guarantee that any value will be received for your renounced entitlement through the bookbuild process. The ability to sell New Shares under the institutional shortfall bookbuild or the retail shortfall bookbuild and the ability to obtain any premium will be dependent upon various factors, including market conditions. Further, the institutional shortfall bookbuild price and/or the retail shortfall bookbuild price may not be the highest prices available, but will be determined having regard to a number of factors, including having binding and bona fide offers which, in the reasonable opinion of the underwriters will, if accepted, result in otherwise acceptable allocations to clear the entire book. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Super Retail Group, the underwriters and any of their respective related bodies corporate, affiliates, officers, employers or advisers will not be liable, including for negligence, for any failure to procure applications for New Shares under the institutional shortfall bookbuild and/or the retail shortfall bookbuild at prices in excess of the offer price. There is no guarantee that there will be a viable market during, or on any particular day in, the rights trading period, on which to sell retail entitlements on ASX. You should also note that if you sell, or do not take up, all or part of your entitlement, then your percentage shareholding in Super Retail Group will be diluted by not participating to the full extent in the Entitlement Offer and you will not be exposed to future increases or decreases in Super Retail Group’s share price in respect of the New Shares which would have been issued to you had you taken up all of your entitlement. The tax consequences from selling entitlements or from doing nothing may be different. Before selling entitlements or choosing to do nothing in respect of entitlements, you should seek independent tax advice and may wish to refer to the tax disclosures contained in the retail offer booklet which will provide further information on potential taxation implications for Australian shareholders. 40

6.1 Super Retail Group Investor Presentation dated Monday, 17 October 2011 cont

International selling restrictions

The following is a summary of the statutory rights of rescission or to damages, or both, available to purchasers in Ontario. In Ontario, every purchaser of the New Shares purchased pursuant to this document (other than (a) a "Canadian financial institution" or a "Schedule III bank" (each as defined in NI 45-106), (b) the Business Development Bank of Canada or (c) a subsidiary of any person referred to in (a) or (b) above, if the person owns all the voting securities of the subsidiary, except the voting securities required by law to be owned by the directors of that subsidiary) shall have a statutory right of action for damages and/or rescission against the Company if this document or any amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation. If a purchaser elects to exercise the right of action for rescission, the purchaser will have no right of action for damages against the Company. This right of action for rescission or damages is in addition to and without derogation from any other right the purchaser may have at law. In particular, Section 130.1 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that, if this document contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who purchases the New Shares during the period of distribution shall be deemed to have relied on the misrepresentation if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase and has a right of action for damages or, alternatively, may elect to exercise a right of rescission against the Company, provided that (a) the Company will not be liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased the New Shares with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for damages, the Company is not liable for all or any portion of the damages that the Company proves does not represent the depreciation in value of the New Shares as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon; and (c) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the New Shares were offered. Section 138 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that no action shall be commenced to enforce these rights more than (a) in the case of any action for rescission, 180 days after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action or (b) in the case of any action, other than an action for rescission, the earlier of (i) 180 days after the purchaser first had knowledge of the fact giving rise to the cause of action or (ii) three years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action. These rights are in addition to and not in derogation from any other right the purchaser may have.

Certain Canadian income tax considerations . Prospective purchasers of the New Shares should consult their own tax adviser with respect to any taxes payable in connection with the acquisition, holding, or disposition of the New Shares as any discussion of taxation related maters in this document is not a comprehensive description and there are a number of substantive Canadian tax compliance requirements for investors in the Provinces.

Language of documents in Canada . Upon receipt of this document, each investor in Canada hereby confirms that it has expressly requested that all documents evidencing or relating in any way to the sale of the New Shares (including for greater certainty any purchase confirmation or any notice) be drawn up in the English language only. Par la réception de ce document, chaque investisseur canadien confirme par les présentes qu’il a expressément exigé que tous les documents faisant foi ou se rapportant de quelque manière que ce soit à la vente des valeurs mobilières décrites aux présentes (incluant, pour plus de certitude, toute confirmation d’achat ou tout avis) soient rédigés en anglais seulement.

  • Super Retail Group Limited (the “Group” or “Super Retail”) has agreed to acquire Rebel Group Limited (“Rebel”) from Archer Capital for total consideration of $610 million[1]

  • Rebel is the clear market leader in the Australian sporting goods retail sector with 128 stores nationwide and an estimated 24% market share in a highly fragmented sporting goods retailing market

  • The strong fit between Super Retail’s and Rebel’s operating models presents the opportunity to apply Super Retail’s retail capabilities to grow the Rebel business

  • The acquisition will be partly funded through a fully underwritten 9 for 19 pro-rata accelerated renounceable entitlement offer at $5.34 per share to raise approximately $334 million of new equity

  • The acquisition is expected to deliver mid single digit EPS accretion in FY12 (presynergies)[2]

  • Overview

Super Retail today announced that it has reached agreement with Archer Capital to acquire Rebel for a total consideration of $610 million.[3] The acquisition is consistent with the Group’s stated strategy of expanding into adjacent leisure retail businesses.

The acquisition will be partly funded through a fully underwritten 9 for 19 pro rata renounceable entitlement offer of new Super Retail ordinary shares (“New Shares”) at an offer price of $5.34 per New Share (“Offer Price”) to raise approximately $334 million (the “Entitlement Offer”). The retail component of the Entitlement Offer will contain an entitlements trading element where eligible retail shareholders will be able to trade their entitlements under the Entitlement Offer on the ASX. Rebel is Australia’s number one sporting goods and apparel retailer with a market leading brand. The acquisition comprises 90 Rebel Sport stores, 36 Amart stores and 2 Performance Sports stores and accelerates the Group’s strategic objective of establishing itself as the leading retailer of automotive and leisure products in the Australian market.

  • Note: 1 The purchase price is before acquisition costs and is subject to a post completion adjustment based on Rebel’s 2 EPS accretion calculated on a pro-forma basis. The funding costs relating to integration costs and transaction working capital balance as at 29 October 2011. costs has been included, but the expensing of these costs has been excluded. In accordance with AASB 133, EPS calculations for all prior periods will be restated based on an adjustment factor to take into account the bonus element in the Entitlement Offer.

  • 3 Completion of the acquisition is conditional on the Group receiving the proceeds of the underwritten institutional component of the Entitlement Offer on or before completion. In the event that this condition is not met, a break-fee of 1% of the acquisition price is payable to the vendors.

6.2 Offer Launch Announcement dated Monday, 17 October 2011 cont

The Group will finance the acquisition through:

  • the underwritten $334 million Entitlement Offer; and

  • an increase in the Group’s existing debt facilities.

The acquisition is expected to deliver mid single digit EPS accretion in FY12 (pre-synergies)[1] and is currently expected to complete on 31 October 2011.[2]

Strategic Rationale

Mr Peter Birtles, Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said, “The acquisition represents a fantastic opportunity for the Group to leverage its retail and supply expertise in a highly complementary business and to build Rebel’s position as the national leader in sporting goods retailing.”

There is a natural strategic fit between the Super Retail and Rebel businesses. Rebel will strengthen the Group’s existing leisure and apparel retail offering, while the Group can provide the required expertise to accelerate Rebel’s growth and store roll-out profile and to optimise Rebel’s existing operations.

There is a significant potential opportunity to grow Rebel from 128 stores today to a total of 185 stores over the medium term, across both the Rebel and Amart banners. In addition, the Group anticipates synergistic benefits will be realised through optimisation of the procurement, logistics, supply chain, marketing, IT and administrative functions. “Both Super Retail and Rebel are focused on providing customers with a comprehensive product offering and excellent customer service, delivered by passionate team members.” Mr Peter Birtles said.

Financial Profile and Rationale

In 2011 Financial Year, Rebel delivered:[3]

  • ~$603 million in revenue; and

  • ~$77 million in EBITDA.

The acquisition has the capacity to create significant shareholder value through the delivery of pre-tax synergies that are estimated by Super Retail management to be in the order of $10 million on an annualised basis, of which approximately 50% are anticipated to be achieved in FY12.

Super Retail expects the acquisition to meet its return on capital hurdle of 20% within five years.

Integration Approach

The Group intends to maintain Rebel as a separate division known as Sports Retailing based in Sydney. Over time, and after a thorough integration planning process, the Group will seek to derive supply chain efficiencies through leveraging the expertise and capabilities of the combined businesses.

About the Entitlement Offer

The Entitlement Offer comprises a fully underwritten accelerated renounceable institutional entitlement offer and a fully underwritten renounceable retail entitlement offer that includes the ability for eligible retail shareholders to trade their Entitlements on the ASX.

The Offer Price of $5.34 represents a discount of 17.8% to the closing price of Super Retail shares on 14 October 2011, a discount of 14.6% to the one month volume weighted average share price of Super Retail shares and a 12.8% discount to the theoretical ex-entitlements price (“TERP”).

Eligible shareholders will be able to purchase 9 New Shares for every 19 existing Super Retail shares held on the Record Date of 7.00pm (AEST) on 20 October 2011.

Eligible shareholders are those holders of Super Retail shares who:

  • are registered as the holder of shares as at 7.00pm AEST on the Record Date;

  • • are not in the United States (other than Eligible US Fund Managers); and • are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Entitlement Offer.

Please refer to Appendix 3 of the investor presentation for further details on international selling restrictions.

Super Retail Group’s largest shareholder, SCA FT Pty Limited (ACN 010 721 614)(2) (“SCA FT”) holding 40.98% of Super Retail Group’s shares prior to the Entitlement Offer, will participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and has committed to take up 11.0% of its entitlements and renounce the balance. New Shares in respect of those renounced entitlements will be sold as part of the institutional shortfall bookbuild.

The Group’s shares have been placed in trading halt whilst the institutional component of the Entitlement Offer is undertaken.

New Shares issued under the Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing Super Retail ordinary shares on issue.

Commenting on the equity raising, the Group Chairman, Mr Robert Wright said, “We are very pleased to present such an exciting opportunity for shareholders to participate in the future growth of Super Retail through the Entitlement Offer. The acquisition of Rebel continues to build on the Group’s acquisition successes and will position the Group as one of Australia’s leading retailers, with strong growth prospects in attractive markets.”

“The Board is pleased to be implementing a structure that provides flexibility for all of our shareholders.”

APPENDIX

About Rebel

Rebel is Australia’s largest sports retailer with 128 stores across Australia under the Rebel (90 stores), Amart (36 stores) and Performance Sport (2 stores) banners.

Rebel was created through the combination of three iconic Australian sports stores chains, Amart All Sports (acquired in 2004), Rowe & Jarman (acquired in 2005) and Rebel Sport (acquired in 2007).

In FY11, Rebel generated ~$603 million of revenue and ~$77 million of EBITDA.[1]

Institutional Entitlement Offer

Eligible institutional shareholders will be invited to participate in the institutional entitlement offer which will take place from 17 October 2011 to 18 October 2011 (“Institutional Entitlement Offer”).

The Institutional Entitlement Offer will be made to those Super Retail Group institutional shareholders with a registered address in Australia and New Zealand, and any other jurisdiction which Super Retail Group deems appropriate for the purpose of the institutional entitlement offer in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7.1. Super Retail Group currently anticipates that this will include institutional shareholders in Australia; New Zealand; Hong Kong; Singapore; Eligible US fund managers; UK; Ireland; France; Belgium; Netherlands; Germany; Austria; Norway; Sweden; Denmark; Canada and Japan. Please refer to Appendix 3 of the investor presentation for further details on international selling restrictions.

Eligible institutional shareholders can choose to take up all, part or none of their entitlement. New Shares in respect of entitlements not taken up and New Shares that would have represented entitlements of ineligible institutional shareholders will be sold through the institutional bookbuild on 19 October 2011, with any proceeds in excess of the Offer Price remitted proportionally to those shareholders (net of any applicable withholding tax). Entitlements to participate in the institutional entitlement offer cannot be traded on the ASX.

Retail Entitlement Offer

Eligible retail shareholders will be invited to participate in the retail entitlement offer at the same Offer Price and offer ratio as the Institutional Entitlement Offer (“Retail Entitlement Offer”). The Retail Entitlement Offer is not being extended to any shareholder with a registered address outside Australia and New Zealand.

The Retail Entitlement Offer will open on 21 October 2011 and close at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on 16 November 2011.

Eligible retail shareholders will be able to trade their Entitlements on the ASX on a deferred settlement basis from 20 October 2011 to 26 October 2011 (when those Entitlements are expected to be allotted) and on a normal settlement basis from 27 October 2011 to 9 November 2011. This means that eligible retail shareholders who do not wish to take up all or part or their Entitlement can seek to sell all or part of their Entitlement on the ASX in order to realise value for that entitlement ahead of the retail shortfall bookbuild.

Therefore, it is prudent that you check whether any further announcements have been made by Super Retail Group (by visiting the ASX website on www.asx.com.au) before submitting your application to take up your Entitlement, or selling or transferring your Entitlement.

No party other than Super Retail Group has authorised or caused the issue of this Information, or takes any responsibility for, or makes, any statements, representations or undertakings in this Information.

This Information is important and requires your immediate attention.

You should read this Information carefully and in its entirety before deciding how to deal with your Entitlement. In particular, you should consider the risk factors outlined in the “Key risks” section of the Super Retail Group Investor Presentation included in this Retail Offer Booklet that could affect the operating and financial performance of Super Retail Group or the value of an investment in Super Retail Group.

Trading of Entitlements and New Shares

It is expected that trading of Retail Entitlements on ASX will commence on Thursday, 20 October 2011 on a deferred settlement basis until Wednesday, 26 October 2011 (when those Entitlements are expected to be allotted) and from Thursday, 27 October 2011 until Wednesday, 9 November 2011 on a normal settlement basis. Following this, it is expected that trading on ASX of New Shares to be issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will commence on Thursday, 10 November 2011 on a deferred settlement basis until Tuesday, 29 November 2011 (when New Shares are expected to be issued) and thereafter from Wednesday, 30 November 2011 on a normal settlement basis.

Super Retail Group will have no responsibility and disclaims all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade Entitlements before they receive their personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by Super Retail Group or the Super Retail Group Share Registry or otherwise or who otherwise trade or purport to trade Entitlements in error or which they do not hold or are not entitled to.

Super Retail Group will have no responsibility and disclaims all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Shares they believe will be issued to them before they receive their holding statements, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by Super Retail Group or the Super Retail Group Share Registry or otherwise or who otherwise trade or purport to trade Entitlements in error or which they do not hold or are not entitled to.

If you are in any doubt as to these matters, you should first consult with your stockbroker or other professional adviser.

7.1 Eligible Retail Shareholders

This Information contains an offer of New Shares to Eligible Retail Shareholders in Australia or New Zealand and has been prepared in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act as notionally modified by ASIC.

Eligible Retail Shareholders are those persons who:

  • are registered as a holder of Shares as at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on the Record Date;

  • have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand;

  • are not in the United States and are not acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States; and

  • were not invited to participate (other than as nominee, in respect of other underlying holdings) under the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

By returning a completed personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form or making a payment by BPAY, you will be taken to have represented and warranted that you satisfy each of the criteria listed above to be an Eligible Retail Shareholder. Nominees, trustees or custodians are therefore advised to seek independent professional advice as to how to proceed.

Super Retail Group may (in its absolute discretion) extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to any institutional shareholder that was eligible to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer but was not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (subject to compliance with relevant laws).

Super Retail Group has decided that it is unreasonable to make offers under the Retail Entitlement Offer to shareholders who have registered addresses outside Australia and New Zealand, having regard to the number of such holders in those places and the number and value of the New Shares that they would be offered, and the cost of complying with the relevant legal and regulatory requirements in those places. Super Retail Group may (in its absolute discretion) extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to shareholders who have registered addresses outside Australia and New Zealand (except the United States) in accordance with applicable law.

7.2 Eligible Institutional Shareholders

Eligible Institutional Shareholders are institutional shareholders to whom the Underwriters make an offer on behalf of Super Retail Group under the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

7.3 Ranking of New Shares

New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will rank equally in all respects with existing Super Retail Group ordinary shares on issue, including as to dividend/distribution entitlements.

7.4 Reconciliation, Top-Up Shares and the rights of Super Retail Group and the Underwriters

The Entitlement Offer is a complex process and in some instances investors may believe that they will own more Shares than they ultimately did as at the Record Date or are otherwise entitled to more New Shares than initially offered to them. In addition, where trustees of Super Retail Group’s employee share plans hold shares on behalf of participants in those plans, the number of New Shares that are offered may need to increase to take account of the rounding referred to in Section 7.7. These matters may result in a need for reconciliation. If reconciliation is required, it is possible that Super Retail Group may need to issue additional New Shares ( Top-Up Shares ) to ensure that the relevant investors receive their appropriate allocation of New Shares. The price at which these Top-Up Shares would be issued is not known.

Super Retail Group

7. ImpORtant InfORmatIOn cOnt.

Super Retail Group also reserves the right to reduce the size of an Entitlement or number of New Shares or the amount of any premium over the Offer Price at which New Shares were sold under the Institutional Shortfall Bookbuild or the Retail Premium allocated to Eligible Institutional Shareholders or Eligible Retail Shareholders, or persons claiming to be Eligible Institutional Shareholders or Eligible Retail Shareholders or other applicable investors, if Super Retail Group believes that their claims to Super Retail Group’s satisfaction are overstated or if they or their nominees fail to provide information requested to substantiate their claims. In that case, Super Retail Group may, in its discretion, require the relevant shareholder to transfer excess New Shares to the Underwriters at the Offer Price per New Share. If necessary, the relevant shareholder may need to transfer existing Shares held by them or to purchase additional Shares on-market to meet this obligation. The relevant shareholder will bear any and all losses caused by subscribing for New Shares in excess of their Entitlement and any actions they are required to take in this regard.

Investors who sell Entitlements to which they are not entitled, or who do not hold sufficient Entitlements at the time required to deliver those Entitlements, may be required by Super Retail Group to otherwise acquire Entitlements or Shares to satisfy these obligations.

By applying under the Entitlement Offer, including pursuant to acquisitions of Entitlements, those doing so irrevocably acknowledge and agree to do the above as required by Super Retail Group in its absolute discretion. Those applying acknowledge that there is no time limit on the ability of Super Retail Group or the Underwriters to require any of the actions set out above.

Super Retail Group reserves the right to determine whether a shareholder is an Eligible Retail Shareholder or an Ineligible Retail Shareholder.

7.5 Receipt of excess Retail Premium

If you receive a Retail Premium payment in excess of the Retail Premium payment to which you were actually entitled based on that part of your Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer which remains held by you as at close of the Retail Entitlement Offer on 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 16 November 2011, then, in the absolute discretion of Super Retail Group, you may be required to repay Super Retail Group the excess Retail Premium.

By taking up or transferring your Entitlement, or accepting the payment to you of a Retail Premium, you irrevocably acknowledge and agree to repay any excess payment of the Retail Premium as set out above as required by Super Retail Group in its absolute discretion. In this case the amount required to be repaid will be net of any applicable withholding tax. You also acknowledge that there is no time limit on the ability of Super Retail Group to require repayment as set out above and that where Super Retail Group exercises its right to correct your Entitlement, you are treated as continuing to have taken up, transferred or not taken up any remaining part of the Entitlement.

7.6 No cooling off rights

Cooling off rights do not apply to an investment in New Shares. You cannot withdraw your application once it has been accepted.

7.7 Rounding of Entitlements

Where fractions arise in the calculation of an Entitlement, they will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.

7.8 Trading of Retail Entitlements

Entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer are tradeable and can be sold or transferred. They are expected to be quoted on and tradable on ASX from Thursday, 20 October 2011 to Wednesday, 9 November 2011. You may sell your Entitlements (which you do not wish to take up or let lapse) in order to realise value which may attach to those Entitlements if sold at that time. If you let your Entitlement lapse, you have the opportunity to receive any Retail Premium (see Section 4.7). There is no guarantee that there will be a liquid market in traded Entitlements. A lack of liquidity may impact the ability to sell Entitlements on ASX and the price able to be achieved.

Prices obtainable for Retail Entitlements may rise and fall over the Retail Entitlement trading period and will depend on many factors including the demand for and supply of Entitlements on ASX and the value of Super Retail Group existing Shares relative to the Offer Price. If you sell your Entitlement, you may receive a higher or lower amount than a shareholder who sells their Entitlement at a different time in the Retail Entitlement trading period or through the Retail Shortfall Bookbuild.

Super Retail Group

==> picture [477 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [74 x 49] intentionally omitted <==

If you decide not to take up all or part of your Entitlement, you should consider whether to sell all or part of your Entitlement or allow all or part of it to lapse. Information on how Entitlements may be sold or transferred is set out in Section 4 and information on taxation considerations is set out in Section 5.

Institutional Entitlements under the Institutional Entitlement Offer were not quoted on or tradable on ASX nor privately transferable.

Investors should note that if you purchase Entitlements on ASX or otherwise, in order to take up those Entitlements and subscribe for New Shares you:

  • must be an Eligible Retail Shareholder, a resident in Australia or New Zealand, or otherwise qualify as an “Eligible Person”[1] ; and

  • must not be in the United States or acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States.

If you do not satisfy the above conditions, you will not be entitled to take up Retail Entitlements or subscribe for New Shares.

7.9 Notice to nominees and custodians

If Super Retail Group believes you hold Shares as a nominee or custodian you will have received, or will shortly receive, a letter in respect of the Entitlement Offer. Nominees and custodians should consider carefully the contents of that letter and note in particular that the Retail Entitlement Offer is not available to, and they must not sell or transfer Entitlements in respect of or purport to accept the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of, Eligible Institutional Shareholders who were invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (whether they accepted their Entitlement or not).

Persons acting as nominees for other persons must not take up any Entitlements on behalf of, or send any documents related to the Retail Entitlement Offer to, any person in the United States or any person that is acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States. Persons in the United States and persons acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States will not be able to purchase or take up any Entitlements purchased on ASX or otherwise and may receive no value for them.

Super Retail Group is not required to determine whether or not any registered holder or investor is acting as a nominee or custodian or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of existing Shares or Entitlements. Where any person is acting as a nominee or custodian for a foreign person, that person, in dealing with its beneficiary, will need to assess whether indirect participation in the Entitlement Offer by the beneficiary, including following acquisition of Entitlements on ASX or otherwise, complies with applicable foreign laws. Super Retail Group is not able to advise on foreign laws.

However, it is important to note that Underwriters will be acting for and providing services to Super Retail Group in this process and will not be acting for or providing services to shareholders. The engagement of the Underwriters by Super Retail Group is not intended to create any agency or other relationship between the Underwriters and the shareholders.

7.15 ASX waivers

In order to conduct the Entitlement Offer, ASX has granted Super Retail Group waivers from ASX Listing Rules 3.20, 7.1, 7.40 and 10.11 subject to a number of customary conditions.

Such transactions are to be ignored in determining holders and registered holders, and holdings and registered holdings, of existing Shares as at the Record Date, and references to such holders, registered holders, holdings and registered holdings are to be read accordingly. Therefore, if you have acquired Shares in a post ex-date transaction, you will not receive an Entitlement in respect of those Shares.

7.16 ASIC modifications

In order to conduct the Entitlement Offer in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act, ASIC has granted Super Retail Group modification from certain provisions of the Corporations Act to permit terms of the offers to shareholders to differ in so far as Retail Entitlements can be taken up in whole or in part, or traded on ASX (or transferred directly to another person) in whole or in part, while Institutional Entitlements were able to be taken up or transferred to the Underwriters in whole or in part (but not traded on ASX).
