.....doing cartwheels shortly??? Who knows, but it is an interesting "Music Hall" scenario that is unfolding for Jumbo Corporation and appearing to be "going according to plan". Cheers and good luck to fellow Jolly Jumbo owners.

ASX Annoucement Friday 23 January 2004 Launch of UK Online Casino Directors are pleased to announce that Global Approach Limited (ASX:GLO) has launched a new UK operation for the Music Hall Casino. As announced on January 19 2004, JUM has completed its acquisition of a substantial shareholding in GLO and now holds approximately 19.9% of the company. The new UK service is located at www.musichallcasino.co.uk and is a more UK-centric service than the US web site at www.musichallcasino.com. The new web site offers additional currency options in British Pounds, Euro as well as US Dollars. “The drive to increase the number of UK and European players should provide a more even balance between US and non-US customers”, said Mr Mike Veverka, CEO of Jumbo Corporation Ltd. “This provides access to larger markets and lowers the reliance on the US market alone”. The value of JUM’s stake in GLO has risen to over $1.51 million since the deal was concluded earlier this week based on yesterday’s closing share price of 14.5c The attached announcement from GLO provides more detailed information about the expansion.

The Web site www.musichallcasino.co.uk. has been acquired and all marketing material and the casino games have been changed to reflect the applicable currencies, including the payment processors that can now accept purchase and pay winnings in GBP and Euros. The new operation compliments the existing casino www.musichallcasino.com which operates in US dollars. The large population base of Britain and Europe will provide balance to the present over-weighting of US based players in MusicHall’s customer profile and with the strength of the Pound and Euro will counterbalance the current reliance on the US dollar and assist in increasing the Casino’s profitability. MusicHall introduced eighteen (18) new games during November 2003 which assisted in the increase in revenues in December 2003 by in excess of 100%. The board is also pleased to announce that Mr. Barwick has assumed the role of Executive Chairman to ensure the continued growth of the company. Yours truly, D K Barwick Executive Chairman
