Dear Sir or Madam

Change of Interests of Substantial Holder

In accordance with section 671B of the Corporations Act. Telstra attaches a Notice of Change of Interests of Substantial Holder in relation to Commander Communications Limited (Commander).

Telstra has not acquired any shares in Commander. The Notice indicates that Telstra's voting power in Commander has increased by 3.29%. This is because Telstra has, by entering into an agreement for the sale of its Commander shareholding with Alchemy Investment Holdings Limited and Babcock & Brown, become an "associate" (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) of Alchemy Investment Holdings Limited (which already held 3.29% of Commander's voting shares).

Yours sincerely

North brake
