IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT DIVIDEND PAYMENTS

Tabcorp has streamlined the way in which dividends are paid to shareholders. Payments to shareholders with a registered address in Australia will only be made:

  • by Direct Credit into a nominated account with an Australian financial institution; or
  • through reinvestment in the company's Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP).

You can add your bank account details using the on-line Share Registry Login Facility.

Alternatively, you can complete either a:


Direct credit and dividend reinvestment are quick, convenient and secure ways of receiving your dividend entitlements, providing benefits such as:

  • payments are electronically credited and DRP shares allocated to your shareholding on payment date, without any mailing or handling delays;
  • no unpresented or misplaced cheques;
  • reduces likelihood of mail fraud;
  • you will continue to receive a dividend statement through the mail or electronically; and
  • if participating in the DRP, you increase your share portfolio without any brokerage costs.
Share Purchase Plan
Tabcorp's Share Purchase Plan (SPP) closed on 4 March 2009 raising $87 million. On 9 February 2009, Tabcorp offered eligible shareholders the opportunity to participate in the SPP by subscribing for up to $5,000 of additional shares in Tabcorp.

As previously announced, the issue price for each new Tabcorp share under the SPP is the lower of:
• $5.80 being the price at which Tabcorp shares were issued to institutional investors under the placement, the outcome of which was announced on 30 January 2009; and
• the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of Tabcorp shares traded on the Australian Securities Exchange during the 5 trading days ending on and including the day on which the SPP offer closed (4 March 2009), rounded down to the nearest cent, which was $6.33.
Accordingly, the issue price for each new Tabcorp share under the SPP is $5.80, which represents an 8.4 per cent discount to the VWAP.

Shares will be allocated to successful SPP applicants on 13 March 2009. These shares will commence trading on 16 March 2009. Statements will be despatched to all SPP participants on 16 March 2009.

Successful SPP applicants will receive their full entitlements, because there was no scale back.

Notice to shareholders - Tabcorp and the Victorian Government licence structure

As shareholders are aware, the Victorian Government announced on 10 April 2008 that the existing gaming operator licence held by Tabcorp Holdings Limited will not be renewed when it expires in mid-2012.

The Government’s announcement outlines the mid-2012 arrangements as follows:

- Gaming: A new model under which hotels and clubs will directly hold gaming machines licences
- Wagering: The current single licence structure will be retained
- Keno: There will be a single Keno licence with expanded distribution

The Government also stated that it had “formed the view” that Tabcorp is not entitled to compensation as a result of its decision.

Tabcorp is both surprised and disappointed by the Government’s decision.

I want to reassure all shareholders that your Board and the management team have been reviewing and assessing the impact of the Government’s announcement.

This issue has the highest priority within the company and your Board will take all necessary actions to protect the interests of Tabcorp and shareholders.

I will provide you with further details on this important issue as they develop. In the meantime, you can access the company’s media release of 10 April on this investor website.
