Share Purchase Plan
Eligible Shareholders may contribute up to $15,000 in applying for new Shares in AMP Limited
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES This is an important document that requires your attention.
Letter from the Chairman
16 August 2019
Dear Shareholder
On behalf of the Board, I am pleased to offer you the opportunity to participate in AMP Limited’s ( AMP ) Share Purchase Plan ( SPP ) which was announced on 8 August 2019. The SPP allows each Eligible Shareholder in Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to subscribe for up to A$15,000 in new Shares.
AMP recently conducted an Institutional Placement of approximately 406.3 million Shares at A$1.60 per Share, raising approximately A$650 million.
AMP intends to use the proceeds from the Institutional Placement and SPP to immediately begin implementing its strategy, fund ongoing growth in its core businesses and provide balance sheet strength ahead of the sale of AMP Life. Through the new strategy, AMP has a unique opportunity to reinvent as a simpler, client-led, higher growth business.
The offer
Participation in the SPP is optional and open to Eligible Shareholders, being holders of Shares at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday 7 August 2019 ( Record Date ) whose address on the AMP Share register is in Australia or New Zealand. The SPP is also being offered to eligible custodians to participate in the SPP on behalf of certain eligible beneficiaries on the terms and conditions set out in this document.
You may apply for a Parcel of Shares of up to $15,000 in set amounts of $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000. Shares under the SPP are offered at the lower of:
-
the issue price paid by institutional investors under the Institutional Placement, being $1.60 per Share; and
-
the volume-weighted average price of Shares traded on ASX during the five trading days up to, and including, the day on which the SPP is scheduled to close (Thursday 5 September 2019) less a 2.5% discount, rounded down to the nearest cent,
(being the Issue Price ).
AMP may, in its discretion, undertake a scale back of Applications for Shares if the aggregate amount applied for under the SPP exceeds AMP’s requirements. This means you may be allocated fewer Shares than the Parcel of Shares for which you applied. If this happens, you will be refunded the difference in the Application amount (without interest payable on funds prior to your refund).
Participation in the SPP is entirely voluntary. All Shares issued under the SPP will rank equally with existing fully paid Shares and will carry the same voting rights and entitlements to receive dividends.
No brokerage, commissions or other transaction costs apply to purchases under the SPP.
How to accept this offer
To apply for Shares under the SPP, please follow the instructions online by visiting AMP’s SPP website at ampspp.com.au or follow the instructions on the enclosed personalised Application Form.
This letter and its attachments set out the details and Terms and Conditions of the SPP. I encourage you to read the enclosed material and seek your own financial and tax advice in relation to the offer, before you decide whether to participate.
The SPP opens at 9am (Sydney time) on Friday 16 August 2019 and will close at 5pm (Sydney time) on Thursday 5 September 2019.
Applications cannot be processed before Friday 16 August 2019. Accordingly, you will not be able to make a payment by BPAY until the SPP opens on Friday 16 August 2019.
On behalf of the Board, I invite you to consider participation in the SPP.
Yours sincerely
David Murray Chairman, AMP Limited

unless you are an Excluded Holder. Certain Eligible Shareholders who are custodians holding Shares on behalf of certain beneficiaries are also able to participate in the SPP in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.
An Excluded Holder is any:
-
holder of Shares who holds Shares on their own account and resides outside Australia or New Zealand;
-
holder of Shares who holds Shares on behalf of another person who resides outside Australia or New Zealand; or
-
− holder of Shares who is, or is acting for the account or benefit of, a person in the United States.

- ® Registered to BPAY Pty Limited ABN 69 079 137 518.
4 Can my offer under the SPP be transferred to a third party?
No. Your rights under this offer are personal to you and non-renounceable, so you may not transfer them.
5 What is the Issue Price of the Shares under the SPP?
The Issue Price of Shares under the SPP will be the lower of:
-
the issue price paid by institutional investors under the Institutional Placement, being $1.60 per Share; and
-
the volume-weighted average price of Shares traded on ASX during the 5 trading days up to, and including, the day on which the SPP is scheduled to close (Thursday 5 September 2019) less a 2.5% discount, rounded down to the nearest cent.
The Issue Price may differ from the market price of Shares on the day Shares are issued or allotted to you.
The market price or value of Shares is subject to market volatility. It may be higher or lower, at any time, than the Issue Price of the Shares you receive. The market price may change between the date of this offer and the date when Shares are issued or allotted to you under the SPP. You agree to pay the Issue Price per Share for the number of Shares that are allocated to you under the SPP in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.
6 How many Shares can I apply for under the SPP?
If you are an Eligible Shareholder, you are entitled to contribute a set amount of $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 in applying for new Shares, regardless of the number of Shares you currently hold. These amounts may be subject to scale back.
If you make a payment for any amount other than one of the set amounts above, your Application may be rejected.
If you receive more than one copy of this booklet, or if you hold Shares in more than one capacity (e.g. because you are both a sole and joint holder of Shares), the maximum amount you may apply to invest under the SPP in all capacities, and in aggregate, is $15,000. By applying to purchase Shares under the SPP, you certify you have not exceeded this $15,000 limit.
If the Issue Price cannot be divided into $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000, to give a whole number of Shares, there will be a rounding down of the number of Shares. By applying to purchase Shares under the SPP, you acknowledge that any remaining balance of your payment will form part of the assets of AMP. You will not receive a refund for this amount, which will always be less than the price of one Share.
7 How do I apply for Shares under the SPP?
If you wish to participate in the SPP, you can apply for Shares in the following ways:
-
Follow the instructions set out in the enclosed Application Form. Send your completed Application Form with your cheque, bank draft or money order drawn on an Australian branch of a financial institution in Australian currency, made payable to “AMP Limited” and crossed “Not Negotiable” to the Registry in the enclosed reply paid envelope;

Late BPAY payments may be returned to you by cheque (or any other method as AMP determines) to your registered address; or
-
(h) AMP has reason to believe that you are not an Eligible Shareholder (subject to compliance with any applicable ASIC or ASX requirements).

3.6 AMP may (in its absolute discretion) undertake a scale back of Applications for Shares if the aggregate amount applied for under the SPP exceeds AMP’s requirements.
-
3.7 If there is a scale back you may not receive all the Shares for which you have applied. Each applicant will be treated equally and scaled back on a pro rata basis based on the Parcel for which each applicant has applied. If a scale back produces a fractional number when applied to your Parcel, the number of Shares you will be allotted will be rounded down.
-
3.8 If there is a scale back, AMP will refund to you by direct credit deposit to your nominated bank account or by cheque, the difference between your Application money and the total Issue Price for the Shares allotted to you without interest (provided that you will not receive a refund for an amount which is less than the Issue Price of one Share).

4.3 If you make a payment for any amount other than one of the amounts set out in clause 4.2, your Application may be rejected. If your Application is rejected, your monies will be returned to you.

4.4 AMP will determine the number of Shares to be issued to each Eligible Shareholder who applies for a Parcel, by dividing the value of that Parcel by the Issue Price. If the Issue Price cannot be divided into $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 to give a whole number of Shares, there will be a rounding down of the number of Shares. In accordance with clause 3.10(n), any remaining balance of your payment will form part of the assets of AMP. You will not receive a refund for this amount, which will always be less than the Issue Price of one Share.

AMP may settle in any manner it sees fit, any difficulties, anomalies or disputes which may arise in connection with the operation of the SPP whether generally or in relation to any participant or any Application of Shares. The decision of AMP is conclusive and binding on all participants and other persons to whom the determination relates. These rights may be exercised by AMP, the AMP Limited Board or any of their delegates.
9 Privacy
-
9.1 Chapter 2C of the Corporations Act requires information about Shareholders (including their name, address and details of the Shares they hold) to be included in the public register of the entity in which they hold Shares.

In some cases, the types of organisations referred to above to whom AMP will disclose personal information may be located overseas.
-
9.7 The main consequence of not providing the personal information outlined in clauses 9.1 to 9.4 above would be that AMP may be hindered in, or prevented from, processing Applications, and from conducting and implementing the SPP.
