News Release

6^th January, 2006

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE DELISTING

Coles Myer Ltd (CML) today announced its intention to delist from the NYSE effective February 6, 2006.

The decision has been taken following a review of the company's secondary listings in New York, New Zealand (NZX) and London (LSE) that concluded that the international accessibility of the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) enables international investor participation in holding CML shares. CML has no business operations in the U.S.

The review also found that the relatively low volume of trade and the cost of listing on each of the exchanges outweighed the benefits to CML shareholders.

CML has today provided American Depositary Receipt (ADR) holders with formal written notice of its intention to delist from the NYSE and details of the termination of the program.
