Under the terms of the Capital Alliance Agreement between AMP Holdings Limited (“AMP Holdings”), AMP Capital Holdings Limited (“AMPCH”) and Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation (“MUTB”) (“Agreement”), MUTB has an option to require AMP to purchase its interest in AMPCH (and AMP Holdings has a corresponding option to require MUTB to sell its interest in AMPCH to AMP) (“Options”). As consideration for the acquisition of AMPCH shares which will result from the exercise of either Option, and pursuant to a separate undertaking given by AMP in favour of MUTB, AMP is required to issue ordinary shares in AMP (“Shares”)to MUTB(or its nominee). |

| 3 Principal terms of the+securities (eg, if options, exercise price and expiry date; if partly paid +securities, the amount outstanding and due dates for payment; if +convertible securities, the conversion price and dates for conversion) |
Under the Agreement, MUTB’s put option is exercisable in a number of circumstances, including where: there is a change of control of AMPCH (but not as a result of a change of control of AMP or an internal reorganisation of the AMP group); AMP Holdings acquires certain interests in and/or enters into business alliance arrangements with certain competitors of MUTB; there is a fundamental or continuing disagreement or irreconcilable difference between AMP Holdings and MUTB in relation to the alliance arrangements that cannot be resolved; as a result of an act or omission of AMP Holdings, MUTB forms the view that continuing with the arrangements would have a material adverse effect on its reputation; certain cash inflow targets are not achieved under the business alliance between AMPCH and MUTB and, following good faith discussions, the parties cannot agree an appropriate way to continue the business alliance; a material breach of the arrangements is committed by AMPCH or AMP Holdings which cannot be or is not remedied; or termination of the business alliance arrangements between AMPCH and MUTB,in certain circumstances. |

Appendix 3B New issue announcement
AMP Holding’s call option applies in similar circumstances (though, where relevant, is triggered by the actions of MUTB, rather than AMP Holdings). As consideration for the transfer of AMPCH shares resulting from the exercise of either Option, AMP is required to issue Shares to MUTB. There are also provisions for MUTB to direct that the Shares be issued to a nominee and sold on MUTB’s behalf. The number of Shares to be issued will be calculated by dividing the value of the proportion of AMPCH’s business attributable to MUTB’s shareholding in AMPCH by the then current volume weighted average price of Shares (potentially plus an additional number of shares to account for costs and MUTB’s share of earnings from exercise of the Option until issue of the Shares). For the purposes of these calculations, the value of the proportion of AMPCH’s business attributable to MUTB’s shareholding in AMPCH will be calculated based on the price paid for the AMPCH shares by MUTB and / or broker consensus valuations of the AMPCH business depending on the time at which the Option is exercised.
