NOTIFICATION OF CEASING TO BE A SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDER

As required under Listing Rule 3.19, Tabcorp Holdings Limited ( Tabcorp or Company ) gives notice that it has become aware that Vanguard Group (The Vanguard Group, Inc. and its controlled entities including Vanguard Investments Australia Ltd) lodged an announcement today advising that it ceased being a substantial shareholder in Tabcorp Holdings Limited on 5 November 2021.

There are a number of restrictions applying to shareholdings in Tabcorp, which arise under legislation, requirements of various regulatory authorities and in the Company’s Constitution. Some of these restrictions limit the number of shares and/or voting power in the Company that can be held by a shareholder. In particular, the Company’s Constitution (to be read in conjunction with applicable legislation) contains restrictions prohibiting a person from having voting power in the Company in excess of 10% without obtaining the written consent of relevant Government Ministers in NSW and Queensland. In addition, legislative change to the Totalizator Act 1997 (NSW) (and related legislation) would also be required in order for a person to hold in excess of 10% of the shares in the Company (or the NSW Wagering Licence holder, TAB Limited). The Company may refuse to register any transfer of shares which would contravene relevant shareholding restrictions or require divestiture of the shares that cause an individual to exceed the shareholding restrictions.

This announcement was authorised for release by Chris Murphy, Company Secretary.
