These TACs, adopted by CCAMLR, are not allocated to the members of CCAMLR and hence the Union share is undetermined. Catches are monitored by the Secretariat of CCAMLR, which will communicate when fishing must cease due to TAC exhaustion.

For the purpose of this TAC, the area open to the fishery is defined as that portion of FAO statistical division 58.5.2 that lies within the area enclosed by a line: (a) starting at the point where the meridian of longitude 72° 15' E intersects the Australia-France Maritime Delimitation Agreement Boundary then south along the meridian to its intersection with the parallel of latitude 53° 25' S; (b) then east along that parallel to its intersection with the meridian of longitude 74° E; (c) then northeasterly along the geodesic to the intersection of the parallel of latitude 52° 40' S and the meridian of longitude 76° E; (d) then north along the meridian to its intersection with the parallel of latitude 52° S; (e) then northwesterly along the geodesic to the intersection of the parallel of latitude 51° S with the meridian of longitude 74° 30' E; and (f) then southwesterly along the geodesic to the point of commencement.

This TAC is applicable for the period from 1 December 2009 to 30 November 2010.
