Appendix 3Y – Change in Directors Interest Notice

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please find following an Appendix 3Y lodged today relating to a change in Mr Chirnside’s director’s interest in shares in the Company for the 15 September 2011. Listing rule 3.19A requires an entity to complete an Appendix 3Y and disclose it to the ASX no more than 5 business days after the change occurs, please find following responses relating to the late lodgement of this change:-

1. Please explain why the notice was lodged late.

The discrepancy was discovered when the company secretary was reconciling all director’s holdings with those on the share registrar’s online system. This is periodically done during the year as a safeguard to ensure all director’s interest are lodged efficiently. Unfortunately this notice, whilst prepared in the system, was not announced on the ASX online platform on 15 September 2011. The conclusion can only be that this was a system error. Mr Chirnside's dividend reinvestment election was communicated to the company secretary and he understood the notice had been lodged at the time the dividend reinvestment plan was in operation for the FY2011 final dividend paid on 15 September 2011.

2. What arrangements does the Company have in place with its directors to ensure that it is able to meet its disclosure obligations under listing rule 3.19A?

The terms of the director’s appointment provide that each director must advise the company of any change in a notifiable interest within 5 business days. The directors are reminded of these obligations at various times during the year. The holding balances are also periodically checked during the year and confirmed by directors. The company has a policy in place for announcing these notices via ASX online and ensuring all lodgement confirmations are filed with the appropriate documents.

3. If the current arrangements are inadequate or not being enforced, what additional steps does the Company intend to take to ensure compliance with listing rule 3.19B?

The company does not believe the current arrangements are inadequate. Taking into account the responses above the company does intend to increase the period checks and reminders to the Directors to ensure the risk of this happening in the future is mitigated. The Board has an appropriate continuous disclosure policy to ensure compliance with listing rule 3.19B. This policy is available under the Corporate Governance section of the company’s website www.wamfunds.com.au.

Yours sincerely Kate Thorley Company Secretary WAM Capital Limited
