ASX Announcement

Monday, 11 December 2006

National Australia Bank applies to cancel LSE listing

National Australia Bank Limited (NAB) has made an application to cancel its listing on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) with effect from 17 January 2007.

NAB Group’s Chief Executive Officer John Stewart said that de-listing from the LSE is another step in the Group’s ongoing streamlining of operations and would have no impact on the National’s business in the UK.

“We are fully committed to our staff, customers, shareholders and communities in the UK, and we look forward to continuing to grow our business in the region.

“However, with increasing globalisation it is no longer necessary to maintain a separate listing for UK trading of NAB shares,” Mr Stewart said.

As at 16 November 2006 (the record date for payment of dividends), the UK Register showed 13,497 shareholders holding a total of 6.7 million ordinary shares. The UK Register will not be affected by the de-listing.
