PCA has been included by the Australian Investment & Securities Commission (ASIC) on its register of low volume financial markets maintained by ASIC pursuant to Corporations (Low Volume Financial Markets) Exemption Notice 2003 ("Exemption Notice").

PCA is included in the register as operator of a low volume market in its shares.

Further information on the register and on the terms of the Exemption Notice is available for viewing at www.asic.gov.au.

PCA's Company Secretary is authorised to operate the market and maintains a Register of Sellers and a Register of Buyers.

Should a shareholder wish to sell their shares, or have an enquiry in relation to selling their shares, in the first instance they should contact the Company Secretary.

Upon written advice by the shareholder to place the shares on the market, the relevant details will be entered into the Register of Sellers (including the asking price for the shares). A standard letter for this purpose is available on request.

In relation to acquiring shares, prospective purchasers should contact the Company Secretary, confirm in writing their requirements and relevant details will be entered into the Register of Buyers (including the purchase price offered). A standard letter is available for this purpose on request.

Due to the nature of the approval granted to PCA, the Company's share registry cannot become involved in conducting any aspect of the market's operations.

It will be the responsibility of the buyer and seller to complete the share transfer form.

At the conclusion of a transaction, the buyer should forward the completed share transfer and holding certificate to the Company Secretary for forwarding to the share registry. Up until this time, the Register of Sellers and Buyers will remain unaltered.

All queries about share sales and purchases should be made to:

Company Secretary
Peanut Company of Australia
PO Box 26
Kingaroy, Qld, 4610
(07) 4162-6311

However, because PCA is an unlisted disclosing entity, it has obligations to keep shareholders informed about material information regarding the Company. Accordingly, if the Board of the Company is aware of information that is not generally available, and such information is information that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of the shares of the company, then PCA will lodge such information with ASIC and also ensure that it is available on the PCA website.

PCA recommends that you seek independent professional advice to assess the value of PCA's shares based on the most recently available information, which includes financial statements together with updates sent to shareholders. Such information is also available on the PCA website.
