At all times, the CPS may be held or transferred only in whole CPS.

2.5 Transfer in accordance with Constitution

The Constitution contains provisions relating to the transfer of shares and the relevant provisions apply with all necessary modifications to a transfer of CPS.

3 Dividends

3.1 Dividends

Subject to these CPS Terms, each CPS entitles the CPS Holder on a Record Date to receive on the relevant Dividend Payment Date a dividend ( Dividend ) calculated according to the following formula:

Issue Price × Dividend Rate × N Dividend =

365

where:

Dividend Rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) is calculated according to the following formula:

Dividend Rate = (Bank Bill Rate + Margin) × (1 - Tax Rate)

where:

Bank Bill Rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) means, for a Dividend Period, the average mid-rate for bills of a term of 90 days which average mid-rate is displayed on Reuters page BBSW (or any page which replaces that page) on the first Business Day of the Dividend Period or if there is a manifest error in the calculation of that average mid-rate or that average mid-rate is not displayed by 10.30am (Melbourne time) on that date, the rate specified in good faith by ANZ at or around that time on that date having regard, to the extent possible, to:

(a) the rates otherwise bid and offered for bills of a term of 90 days or for funds of that tenor displayed on Reuters page BBSW (or any page which replaces that page) at that time on that date; or
(b) if bid and offer rates for bills of a term of 90 days are not otherwise available, the rates otherwise bid and offered for funds of that tenor at or around that time on that date.

Margin (expressed as a percentage per annum) means the margin determined under the Bookbuild; and

Tax Rate (expressed as a decimal) means the Australian corporate tax rate applicable to the franking account of ANZ as at the relevant Dividend Payment Date; and

N means in respect of:

(a) the first Dividend Payment Date, the number of days from (and including) the Issue Date until (but not including) the first Dividend Payment Date; and
(b) each subsequent Dividend Payment Date, the number of days from (and including) the preceding Dividend Payment Date until (but not including) the relevant Dividend Payment Date.

3.2 Franking adjustments

If any Dividend is not franked to 100% under Part 3-6 of the Tax Act (or any provisions that revise or replace that Part), the Dividend will be calculated according to the following formula:

D Dividend = 1 - [Tax Rate × (1 - F)]

where:

D means the Dividend calculated under clause 3.1;

Tax Rate has the meaning given in clause 3.1; and

F means the applicable Franking Rate.

3.3 Payment of a Dividend

Each Dividend (including an Optional Dividend) is subject to:

(a) the Directors, at their absolute discretion, resolving to pay that Dividend on the relevant Dividend Payment Date; and
(b) no APRA Condition existing in respect of the relevant Dividend Payment Date.

Subject to this clause 3.3, the Directors, at their absolute discretion but with the prior written approval of APRA, may determine an Optional Dividend to be payable on any date.

3.4 Dividends are non-cumulative

Dividends are non-cumulative. If all or any part of a Dividend is not paid because of clause 3.3 or because of any applicable law, ANZ has no liability to pay the unpaid amount of the Dividend and, notwithstanding the Directors’ discretion to pay an Optional Dividend under clause 3.3, CPS Holders have no claim or entitlement in respect of such non-payment and such non-payment does not constitute an event of default. No interest accrues on any unpaid Dividends or Optional Dividends and the CPS Holders have no claim or entitlement in respect of interest on any unpaid Dividends or Optional Dividends.

3.5 Dividend Payment Dates

Subject to this clause 3, Dividends (other than Optional Dividends) in respect of a CPS will be payable in arrears on the following dates (each a Dividend Payment Date ):

(a) each 15 March, 15 June, 15 September and 15 December commencing on 15 December 2008 until (but not including) the date on which a Redemption or Conversion of that CPS occurs in accordance with these CPS Terms ~~; and~~
(b) each date on which:
(i) a Conversion or Resale of that CPS occurs; and
(ii) subject to clause 8.3(a)(iii), a Redemption of that CPS occurs,

in each case in accordance with these CPS Terms; and

If a Dividend Payment Date is a day which is not a Business Day, then the Dividend Payment Date will be the next day which is a Business Day.

3.6 Record Dates

(a) A Dividend is only payable on a Dividend Payment Date to those persons registered as CPS Holders on the Record Date for that Dividend.
(b) An Optional Dividend is only payable on the date of payment determined by the Directors to those persons registered as CPS Holders on the Record Date for that Optional Dividend.

3.7 Deductions

(a) ANZ may deduct from any Dividend payable the amount of any withholding or other tax, duty or levy required by law to be deducted in respect of such amount. If any such deduction has been made and the amount of the deduction accounted for by ANZ to the relevant revenue authority and the balance of the Dividend payable has been paid to the relevant CPS Holder, then the full amount payable to such CPS Holder shall be deemed to have been duly paid and satisfied by ANZ.
(b) ANZ shall pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant revenue authority within the time allowed for such payment without incurring any penalty under the applicable law and shall, if required by any CPS Holder, deliver to that CPS Holder a copy of any relevant receipt issued by the revenue authority (to the extent issued) without delay after it is received by ANZ.

3.8 Restrictions in the case of non-payment

If for any reason a Dividend has not been paid in full within 21 Business Days of the relevant Dividend Payment Date, ANZ must not, without approval of a Special Resolution:

(a) declare or pay a dividend or make any distribution on any capital instruments of ANZ which rank equally with or junior to CPS for distributions; or

(b) redeem, buy back or reduce capital on any capital instruments of ANZ which rank equally with or junior to CPS for a return of capital in a winding up,

unless:

(i) consecutive Dividends scheduled to be payable on CPS on the Dividend Payment Dates falling during the 12 months after the Dividend Payment Date of the Dividend that has not been paid have been paid in full;
(ii) with the prior written approval of APRA, an optional dividend ( Optional Dividend ) has been paid to CPS Holders equal to the aggregate unpaid amount of any unpaid Dividends which were scheduled to be paid in the 12 months prior to the date of payment of the Optional Dividend; or
(iii) all CPS have been Redeemed or Converted.

3.9 Exclusions from restrictions in case of non-payment

The restrictions in clause 3.8 do not apply to:

(a) pro rata payments on the CPS and any Equal Ranking Instruments;
(b) repurchases (including buy-backs), redemptions or other acquisitions of ANZ Shares in connection with:
(i) any employment contract, employee share scheme, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants of ANZ or any Controlled Entity;
(ii) a dividend reinvestment or bonus option plan or shareholder share purchase plan; or
(iii) the issuance of ANZ Shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such shares, as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to non-payment of the Dividend;
(c) an exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of ANZ Shares, or any securities of a Subsidiary or of any other entity whose financial results are required to be consolidated with ANZ’s financial statements, for any class or series of ANZ Shares, or of any class or series of ANZ’s indebtedness for any class or series of ANZ Shares;
(d) the purchase of fractional interests in ANZ Shares under the conversion or exchange provisions of the shares or the security being converted or exchanged;
(e) any payment, distribution or declaration of a dividend in connection with any shareholder’s rights plan, or the issuance of rights, shares or other property under any shareholder’s rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant to the plan;
(f) any dividend in the form of shares, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend shares or the shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights are the same class or series of shares as those on which the dividend is being paid or rank equal or junior to those shares; or

(g) a capital raising by way of a rights or entitlement issue made to holders of one or more capital instruments of ANZ.

Nothing in these CPS Terms prohibits ANZ or a Controlled Entity from purchasing ANZ Shares (or an interest therein) in connection with transactions for the account of customers of ANZ or customers of entities that ANZ Controls or in connection with the distribution or trading of ANZ Shares in the ordinary course of business. This includes (for the avoidance of doubt and without affecting the foregoing) any acquisition resulting from:

(a) taking security over ANZ Shares in the ordinary course of business; and
(b) acting as trustee for another person where neither ANZ nor any entity it Controls has a beneficial interest in the trust (other than a beneficial interest that arises from a security given for the purposes of a transaction entered into in the ordinary course of business).

4.5 Redemption where Mandatory Conversion Conditions are not satisfied

If:

(a) the First Mandatory Conversion Condition is not satisfied in relation to a Relevant Date, ANZ may, subject to APRA’s prior written approval, elect to Redeem all (but not some) CPS on the Relevant Date in accordance with clause 8 by giving a notice (a Redemption Notice ) no later than 10 Business Days prior to the Relevant Date; or

If, notwithstanding this clause 4.9, more than one notice is given, the Resale Notice will be deemed never to have been given and the Redemption Notice will prevail.

5 Optional Exchange by ANZ

ANZ may by notice to CPS Holders (an Exchange Notice ) elect to Exchange:

(a) all or some CPS on an Exchange Date following the occurrence of a Tax Event or a Regulatory Event; or

5.4 Conditions to election by ANZ of Conversion as Exchange Method

ANZ may not elect Conversion as the Exchange Method in respect of an Exchange if:

(a) on the second Business Day before the date on which an Exchange Notice is to be sent by ANZ (or, if trading in Ordinary Shares did not occur on that date, the last Business Day prior to that date on which trading in Ordinary Shares occurred) (the Optional Conversion Test Date ) the VWAP on that date is less than or equal to 56.00% of the Issue Date VWAP (the First Optional Conversion Condition ); or
(b) a Delisting Event applies in respect of the Optional Conversion Test Date (the Second Optional Conversion Condition and, together with the First Optional Conversion Condition, the Optional Conversion Conditions ).

5.5 Conditions to Conversion occurring once elected by ANZ

If ANZ has given an Exchange Notice in which it has elected Conversion as the Exchange Method but, if the Exchange Date were a Relevant Date for the purposes of clause 4, either the Second Mandatory Conversion Condition or the Third Mandatory Conversion Condition would not be satisfied in respect of that date, then, notwithstanding any other provision of these CPS Terms:

(a) the Exchange Date will be deferred until the first Dividend Payment Date on which the Mandatory Conversion Conditions would be satisfied if that Dividend Payment Date were a Relevant Date for the purposes of clause 4 (the Deferred Conversion Date );
(b) ANZ must Convert the CPS on the Deferred Conversion Date (unless (without prejudice to clause 9.6) the CPS are earlier Exchanged in accordance with these CPS Terms); and
(c) until the Deferred Conversion Date, all rights attaching to the CPS will continue as if the Exchange Notice had not been given.

ANZ will notify CPS Holders on or as soon as practicable after an Exchange Date in respect of which this clause 5.5 applies that Conversion did not occur on that Exchange Date (a Deferred Conversion Notice ).

6 Early Exchange on Change of Control Event

6.1 Notice of Change of Control Event

ANZ must notify CPS Holders of the occurrence of a Change of Control Event as soon as practicable after becoming aware of that event (a Change of Control Event Notice ).

6.2 Exchange on occurrence of Change of Control Event

If a Change of Control Event occurs, ANZ must, subject to obtaining the prior written approval of APRA, Exchange all (but not some only) CPS on the Change of Control Exchange Date by notice to CPS Holders (a Change of Control Exchange Notice ) in accordance with this clause 6 and clause 7 or clause 8 (as the case may be).

(ii) otherwise, no later than 35 Business Days after the date on which the Change of Control Event occurred,

or in either case such later date as APRA may require;

(c) the Exchange Method, which, subject to clause 5.4, must be either Conversion in accordance with clause 7 or Redemption in accordance with clause 8 as elected by ANZ;
(d) if the Change of Control Exchange Notice provides that CPS are to be Redeemed, whether the Redemption Price is payable by way of redemption, buy-back or reduction of capital (or a combination of these methods); and
(e) whether any Dividend or any amount under clause 8.3(a)(iii) will be paid on the Change of Control Exchange Date.

6.4 Where Change of Control Exchange Notice not required

Notwithstanding any other provision of clause 6.2 or clause 6.3, if APRA does not approve Redemption as the Exchange Method and ANZ is prevented from electing Conversion as the Exchange Method by clause 5.4, ANZ is not required to give a Change of Control Exchange Notice and the provisions of clause 6.5 will apply.

6.5 Deferred Exchange on Change of Control Event

If clause 6.4 applies or ANZ has given a Change of Control Exchange Notice in which it has elected Conversion as the Exchange Method but, if the Change of Control Exchange Date were a Relevant Date for the purposes of clause 4, either the Second Mandatory Conversion Condition or the Third Mandatory Conversion Condition would not be satisfied in respect of that date, then, notwithstanding any other provision of these CPS Terms:

(a) the Change of Control Exchange Notice, if given, is taken to be revoked and Exchange will not occur on the Change of Control Exchange Date specified in the Change of Control Event Notice;
(b) ANZ will notify CPS Holders as soon as practicable that Exchange will not (or, as the case may be, did not) occur (a Deferred Change of Control Exchange Notice ); and
(c) ANZ must, unless clause 6.4 then applies, give a Change of Control Exchange Notice (or, as the case may be, a new Change of Control Exchange Notice) on or before the 25th Business Day prior to the Dividend Payment Date immediately succeeding the date on which the Deferred Change of Control Exchange Notice was given.

The Change of Control Exchange Notice given in accordance with paragraph (c) above must:

(a) specify the Exchange Method, which, subject to clause 5.4, must be either Conversion in accordance with clause 7 or Redemption in accordance with clause 8 as elected by ANZ; and
(b) otherwise comply with clause 6.3.

If this clause 6.5 applies but:

(i) clause 6.4 applies in respect of the Dividend Payment Date such that no Change of Control Exchange Notice (or, as the case may be, no new Change of Control Exchange Notice) is given under this clause 6.5; or

(ii) a Change of Control Exchange Notice (or, as the case may be, a new Change of Control Exchange Notice) is given under this clause 6.5 but, if the Change of Control Exchange Date specified in the Change of Control Exchange Notice were a Relevant Date for the purpose of clause 4, either the Second Mandatory Conversion Condition or the Third Mandatory Conversion Condition would not be satisfied in respect of that date,

then this clause 6.5 will be reapplied in respect of each subsequent Dividend Payment Date until an Exchange occurs.

7 Conversion mechanics

7.1 Conversion

If ANZ elects to Convert CPS or must Convert CPS in accordance with these CPS Terms, then, subject to clause 13, the following provisions apply:

(a) each CPS that is being Converted will Convert into one Ordinary Share on the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be);
(b) each CPS Holder will be allotted, for no consideration, an additional number of Ordinary Shares for each CPS that is being Converted on the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be) equal to one less than the Conversion Number, where the Conversion Number (but subject to the Conversion Number being no more than the Maximum Conversion Number) is a number calculated according to the following formula:

Issue Price Conversion Number = 97.5% × VWAP

where:

VWAP (expressed in dollars and cents) means the VWAP during the VWAP Period;

(c) if the total number of additional Ordinary Shares to be allotted to a CPS Holder in respect of their aggregate holding of CPS upon Conversion includes a fraction of an Ordinary Share, that fraction of an Ordinary Share will be disregarded;
(d) a CPS, upon Conversion, confers all of the rights attaching to one Ordinary Share but these rights do not take effect until 5.00pm (Melbourne time) on the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be). At that time:
(i) all other rights conferred or restrictions imposed on that CPS under these CPS Terms will no longer have effect (except for rights relating to a Dividend which has been determined to be payable but has not been paid on or before the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be) which will continue); and
(ii) the Ordinary Share resulting from a Conversion will rank equally with all other Ordinary Shares.

Conversion does not constitute a redemption, buy-back, cancellation or termination of CPS or an issue, allotment or creation of a new Ordinary Share (other than the additional Ordinary Shares allotted under clause 7.1(b)).

7.2 Adjustments to VWAP

For the purposes of calculating VWAP in these CPS Terms:

(a) where, on some or all of the Business Days in the relevant VWAP Period, Ordinary Shares have been quoted on ASX as cum dividend or cum any other distribution or entitlement and CPS will Convert into Ordinary Shares after the date those Ordinary Shares no longer carry that dividend or any other distribution or entitlement, then the VWAP on the Business Days on which those Ordinary Shares have been quoted cum dividend or cum any other distribution or entitlement shall be reduced by an amount ( Cum Value ) equal to:
(i) (in case of a dividend or other distribution), the amount of that dividend or other distribution including, if the dividend or other distribution is franked, the amount that would be included in the assessable income of a recipient of the dividend or other distribution who is both a resident of Australia and a natural person under the Tax Act;
(ii) (in the case of any other entitlement that is not a dividend or other distribution under clause 7.2(a)(i) which is traded on ASX on any of those Business Days), the volume weighted average sale price of all such entitlements sold on ASX during the VWAP Period on the Business Days on which those entitlements were traded; or
(iii) (in the case of any other entitlement which is not traded on ASX during the VWAP Period), the value of the entitlement as reasonably determined by the Directors; and
(b) where, on some or all of the Business Days in the VWAP Period, Ordinary Shares have been quoted on ASX as ex dividend or ex any other distribution or entitlement, and CPS will Convert into Ordinary Shares which would be entitled to receive the relevant dividend or other distribution or entitlement, the VWAP on the Business Days on which those Ordinary Shares have been quoted ex dividend or ex any other distribution or entitlement shall be increased by the Cum Value.

7.3 Adjustments to VWAP for capital reconstruction

Where the Ordinary Shares are reconstructed, consolidated, divided or reclassified (other than by way of a bonus issue, rights issue or other essentially pro rata issue) into a lesser or greater number of securities during the relevant VWAP Period, the VWAP shall be adjusted by ANZ as it considers appropriate to ensure that the CPS Holders are in an economic position in relation to their CPS that is as similar as reasonably practicable to the economic position prior to the occurrence of the event that gave rise to the need for the adjustment. Any adjustment made by ANZ will be effective and binding on CPS Holders under these CPS Terms and these CPS Terms will be construed accordingly. Any such adjustment must be promptly notified to all CPS Holders.

7.4 Adjustments to Issue Date VWAP

For the purposes of determining the Issue Date VWAP, adjustments to VWAP will be made in accordance with clause 7.2 and clause 7.3 during the VWAP

Period for the Issue Date VWAP. On and from the Issue Date, adjustments to the Issue Date VWAP:

(a) may be made in accordance with clauses 7.5, 7.6, 7.7, 7.8 or 7.9; and
(b) if so made, will correspondingly affect the application of the Mandatory Conversion Conditions and the Optional Conversion Conditions, and cause an adjustment to the Maximum Conversion Number.

7.5 Adjustments to Issue Date VWAP for bonus and rights issues

(a) Subject to clauses 7.5(b) and 7.5(c) below, if ANZ makes a pro rata bonus issue or a rights issue or other essentially pro rata issue (including an issue of the kind known as a “jumbo” or “RAPIDS” issue, where offers to certain institutional holders (or beneficial holders) are made in advance of offers to other holders) of Ordinary Shares to holders of Ordinary Shares generally, the Issue Date VWAP will be adjusted immediately in accordance with the following formula:

==> picture [165 x 31] intentionally omitted <==

where:

V means the Issue Date VWAP applying immediately after the application of this formula;

Vo means the Issue Date VWAP applying immediately prior to the application of this formula;

P means the VWAP during the period from (and including) the first Business Day after the announcement of the bonus, rights or other relevant issue to the ASX up to (and including) the last Business Day of trading cum rights, bonus or other relevant issue (or if there is no period of cum rights, bonus or other relevant issue trading, an amount reasonably determined by the Directors as representing the value of an Ordinary Shares cum the rights, bonus or other relevant issue);

A means the subscription or unit price per Ordinary Share for a rights issue and is zero in the case of a bonus issue;

RN means the number of Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the rights, bonus or other relevant issue; and

RD means the number of Ordinary Shares on issue immediately prior to the allotment of new Ordinary Shares pursuant to the rights, bonus or other relevant issue.

(b) No adjustment to the Issue Date VWAP will occur if A exceeds P.
(c) Clause 7.5(a) does not apply to Ordinary Shares issued as part of a bonus share plan, employee or executive share plan, executive option plan, share top up plan, share purchase plan or a dividend reinvestment plan.
(d) For the purpose of clause 7.5(a), an issue will be regarded as a pro rata issue notwithstanding that ANZ does not make offers to some or all holders of Ordinary Shares with registered addresses outside Australia,

provided that in so doing ANZ is not in contravention of the ASX Listing Rules.

7.6 Adjustment to Issue Date VWAP for off market buy-back

(a) Subject to clause 7.6(b), if ANZ undertakes an off market buy-back under a scheme which but for restrictions on transfer would be generally available to holders of Ordinary Shares, the Issue Date VWAP will be adjusted immediately in accordance with the following formula:

==> picture [185 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

where:

V means the Issue Date VWAP respectively applying immediately after the application of this formula;

Vo means the Issue Date VWAP respectively applying immediately prior to the application of this formula;

P means the VWAP during the 20 Business Days prior to the announcement to the ASX of the buy-back;

A means the buy-back price per Ordinary Share;

BN means the number of Ordinary Shares bought back; and

BD means the number of Ordinary Shares on issue immediately prior to the buy-back.

(b) No adjustment to the Issue Date VWAP will occur if P exceeds A.

7.7 Adjustment to Issue Date VWAP for return of capital

If ANZ makes a pro rata return of capital to holders of Ordinary Shares, the Issue Date VWAP will be adjusted in accordance with the following formula:

==> picture [93 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

where:

V means the Issue Date VWAP applying immediately after the application of this formula;

Vo means the Issue Date VWAP applying immediately prior to the application of this formula;

P means the VWAP during the period from (and including) the first Business Day after the announcement of the return of capital to ASX up to and including the last Business Day of trading cum the return of capital (or if there is no period of cum return of capital trading, an amount reasonably determined by the Directors as representing the value of Ordinary Shares cum the return of capital); and

C means, with respect to a return of capital, the amount of the cash and/or the value (as reasonably determined by the Directors) of any

other property distributed to holders of Ordinary Shares per Ordinary Share (or such lesser amount such that the difference between P and C is greater than zero).

7.8 Adjustment to Issue Date VWAP for capital reconstruction

If at any time the Ordinary Shares are reconstructed, consolidated, divided or reclassified into a lesser or greater number of securities, the Directors may if they consider it appropriate reconstruct the Issue Date VWAP in the same way as the exercise price of options over Ordinary Shares would be reconstructed in the same context, in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules (as they apply to ANZ). Each CPS Holder acknowledges that ANZ may reconstruct, consolidate, divide or reclassify into a lesser or greater number of securities the Ordinary Shares at any time in its absolute discretion without any such action constituting a variation of rights of CPS Holders or otherwise requiring any consent or concurrence.

7.9 Directors’ sole discretion regarding adjustments to Issue Date VWAP

Despite the provisions of clauses 7.5 to 7.8, where:

(a) the effect of any of the adjustment provisions set out in clauses 7.5 to 7.8 is not, in the reasonable opinion of the Directors, appropriate in any particular circumstances (including because more than one adjustment provision applies); or
(b) any other event occurs in relation to ANZ that may have a dilutive or concentrative effect on the value of the Ordinary Shares, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Directors, such occurrence would have a dilutive or concentrative effect on the value of Ordinary Shares,

the Directors may (subject to APRA’s prior written approval):

(i) make such alterations to the Issue Date VWAP as they reasonably consider appropriate or necessary to compensate for that effect; or
(ii) extend an entitlement to the CPS Holders to participate in such event based on the number of Ordinary Shares to which those CPS Holders would have been entitled if their CPS had been Converted on a date nominated by the Directors to compensate for that effect.

7.10 Announcement of adjustment to Issue Date VWAP

ANZ will notify CPS Holders (an Adjustment Notice ) of any adjustment to the Issue Date VWAP under this clause 7 within 10 Business Days of ANZ determining the adjustment and the adjustment set out in the announcement will be final and binding.

7.11 Ordinary Shares

Each Ordinary Share issued or arising upon Conversion ranks pari passu with all other fully paid Ordinary Shares.

7.12 Foreign CPS Holders

Where CPS held by a Foreign CPS Holder are to be Converted, unless ANZ is satisfied that the laws of the Foreign CPS Holder’s country of residence permit the issue of Ordinary Shares to the Foreign CPS Holder (but as to which ANZ is

not bound to enquire), either unconditionally or after compliance with conditions which ANZ in its absolute discretion regards as acceptable and not unduly onerous, the Ordinary Shares which the Foreign CPS Holder is obliged to accept will be issued to a nominee who will sell those Ordinary Shares and pay a cash amount equal to the net proceeds received, after deducting any applicable brokerage, stamp duty and other taxes and charges, to the Foreign CPS Holder accordingly.

7.13 Listing Ordinary Shares issued on Conversion

ANZ shall use all reasonable endeavours to list the Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the CPS on ASX or the principal securities exchange on which its Ordinary Shares are then listed.

8 Redemption mechanics

8.1 Redemption mechanics to apply to Redemption

If, subject to APRA’s prior written approval, ANZ elects to Redeem CPS or must Redeem CPS in accordance with these CPS Terms, the provisions of this clause 8 apply to that Redemption.

8.2 Redemption

CPS will be Redeemed by payment on the Redemption Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be) of the Issue Price plus any amount payable under clause 8.3(a)(iii) (together, the Redemption Price ) by way of redemption, buy-back, reduction of capital or any combination thereof to the CPS Holder.

8.3 Effect of Redemption on CPS Holders

On the Redemption Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be) the only right CPS Holders will have in respect of CPS will be to obtain the Redemption Price payable in accordance with these CPS Terms and upon payment of the Redemption Price, all other rights conferred, or restrictions imposed, by CPS will no longer have effect.

For the purposes of this clause 8:

(a) where the Redemption involves a buy-back of CPS:
(i) the Redemption Notice, the Exchange Notice or the Change of Control Exchange Notice (as the case may be) constitutes a buy-back offer for the Redemption Price payable on the relevant Redemption Date, Exchange Date or Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be);
(ii) the CPS Holder must accept the buy-back offer for their CPS and will be deemed to have accepted that buy-back offer for CPS held by that CPS Holder to which the Redemption Notice, the Exchange Notice or the Change of Control Exchange Notice(as the case may be) relates on the date the Redemption Notice, the Exchange Notice or the Change of Control Exchange Notice (as the case may be) is given and will be deemed to have sold those CPS to ANZ free of all Encumbrances on the Redemption Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be);

(iii) no Dividend is payable on CPS on the Redemption Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be), but the Directors may, in their absolute discretion, determine that the consideration payable for each CPS that is bought back will include an amount (in addition to the Issue Price) equal to a Dividend calculated in accordance with clause 3 for the Dividend Period ending on (but not including) the Redemption Date, the Exchange Date or the Change of Control Exchange Date (as the case may be);
(iv) the buy-back agreement will be taken to include ANZ’s undertaking in clause 3.8 (as qualified by clause 3.9); and
(v) for the purposes of calculating the Redemption Price, any suspension of the right to receive a Dividend arising from the buy-back agreement under applicable law shall be disregarded; and
(b) if the Redemption involves either or both a reduction of capital with respect to CPS and a cancellation of CPS and under applicable law CPS Holders are entitled to vote on a resolution to approve that reduction of capital or that cancellation, each CPS Holder agrees to vote in favour of that or those resolutions.

9 Resale mechanics

9.1 Resale mechanics to apply to Resale

If ANZ elects to Resell CPS or must Resell CPS in accordance with these CPS Terms, the provisions of this clause 9 apply to that Resale.

9.2 Appointment of Nominated Purchaser

ANZ must appoint one or more Nominated Purchasers for the Resale on such terms as may be agreed between ANZ and the Nominated Purchaser. If ANZ appoints more than one Nominated Purchaser in respect of a Resale, all or any of the CPS held by a CPS Holder which are being Resold may be purchased by any one or any combination of the Nominated Purchasers, as determined by ANZ.

The obligation of a Nominated Purchaser to pay the aggregate purchase price on the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be) may be subject to conditions.

ANZ will reasonably endeavour, in light of the circumstances then existing, to minimise the conditionality of a Nominated Purchaser’s obligation to pay the aggregate purchase price but gives no assurance as to the details of any such conditions.

9.3 Identity of Nominated Purchaser

ANZ may not appoint a person as a Nominated Purchaser unless that person:

(a) has undertaken on such terms and subject to such conditions as ANZ reasonably determines for the benefit of each CPS Holder to acquire each CPS from the CPS Holder for the Issue Price on the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be);

(b) has a long term counterparty credit rating from one of Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or Fitch of not less than the rating assigned to CPS at that time by that rating agency; and
(c) is not a Controlled Entity of ANZ (unless otherwise approved in writing by APRA).

9.4 Irrevocable offer to sell CPS

Each CPS Holder is taken irrevocably to offer to sell CPS the subject of that Resale to the Nominated Purchaser on the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be) for a cash amount equal to the Issue Price.

9.5 Effect of Resale

On the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be), subject to payment by the Nominated Purchaser of the Issue Price to the CPS Holders, all right, title and interest in such CPS (excluding the right to any Dividend payable on that date) will be transferred to the Nominated Purchaser on the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be).

9.6 CPS Terms after Resale

If CPS are Resold in accordance with these CPS Terms, unless otherwise agreed between ANZ and the Nominated Purchaser with the prior written approval of APRA, these CPS Terms will apply in all respects to the CPS held by the Nominated Purchaser on and from the Resale taking effect in accordance with these CPS Terms (including that the CPS will Convert in the hands of the Nominated Purchaser on the Mandatory Conversion Date if the Mandatory Conversion Conditions are satisfied in respect of that date or on any other date on which CPS are to be Converted in accordance with these CPS Terms).

Notwithstanding any other provision of these CPS Terms, after the CPS have been Resold, any provision of these CPS Terms as it relates to the CPS held by the Nominated Purchaser (including without limitation any term relating to Conversion) may be amended by agreement between the Nominated Purchaser and ANZ without the consent of any other CPS Holder but with the prior written approval of APRA. For the purposes of any such amendment, CPS held by:

(a) a Nominated Purchaser and CPS held by other CPS Holders; and
(b) CPS held by different Nominated Purchasers,

shall be treated as though they were separate classes of shares, so that without limitation:

(i) where there is more than one Nominated Purchaser; or
(ii) where CPS are held by a person other than a Nominated Purchaser,

then:

(A) amendments may be made to the CPS held by a Nominated Purchaser; and

(B) the CPS held by a Nominated Purchaser can be Redeemed or Converted,

in each case without the consent of or consideration for the interests of any CPS Holders other than the Nominated Purchaser the terms of whose CPS are being

amended, Redeemed or Converted and without any corresponding amendment, Redemption or Conversion (as the case may be) to the CPS held by other CPS Holders.

9.7 Effect of failure by the Nominated Purchaser to pay

If a Nominated Purchaser does not pay the Issue Price to the CPS Holders on the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be) (a Defaulting Nominated Purchaser ) (whether as a result of a condition to purchase not being satisfied or otherwise):

(a) the Resale Notice or the Exchange Notice (as the case may be) as it relates to the Defaulting Nominated Purchaser will be void;
(b) CPS will not be transferred to the Defaulting Nominated Purchaser;
(c) in the case of a Resale Notice, CPS referable to the Defaulting Nominated Purchaser will not Convert into Ordinary Shares on that Relevant Date and the Mandatory Conversion Date:
(i) will be deemed not to have occurred on that Relevant Date; and
(ii) will occur on the next Relevant Date on which it is otherwise determined to occur in accordance with clause 4.2;
(d) the CPS Holder will continue to hold those CPS until otherwise Redeemed, Converted or Resold in accordance with these CPS Terms; and
(e) ANZ may, subject to APRA’s prior written approval and without prejudice to any other rights of ANZ under these terms to elect an Exchange, elect to Exchange all (but not some) CPS referable to the Defaulting Nominated Purchaser on a date no later than 45 Business Days after the Relevant Date or the Exchange Date (as the case may be) (the Deferred Exchange Date ) by giving another Exchange Notice in accordance with clause 5.1 at least 25 Business Days prior to the Deferred Exchange Date. In these circumstances, the date on which the Exchange is to occur for the purposes of clause 5.2(b) will be the Deferred Exchange Date.

10 CPS general rights

10.1 Ranking with respect to dividends

The CPS rank in respect of payment of dividends:

(a) senior to Ordinary Shares and other instruments or securities of ANZ that rank or are expressed to rank junior to the CPS;
(b) equally among themselves and with all Equal Ranking Instruments; and
(c) junior to any securities or instruments that rank senior to the CPS and to all ANZ’s debts and liabilities to its depositors and all other creditors, other than indebtedness that by its terms ranks equally with or junior to the CPS,

in each case of (a), (b) and (c), in respect of payment of dividends.

10.2 Ranking in a winding-up

(a) In a winding-up of ANZ, a CPS confers upon the CPS Holder the right to payment in cash of the Liquidation Sum out of the surplus (if any) available for distribution to shareholders, but no further or other right to participate in the assets of ANZ on a return of capital in the winding-up.
(b) CPS Holders will rank for payment of the Liquidation Sum in a windingup of ANZ:
(i) in priority to Ordinary Shares and other securities that ANZ has issued or may issue that by their terms rank junior to the CPS;
(ii) equally among themselves and with all Equal Ranking Instruments; and
(iii) junior to any securities or instruments that rank senior to the CPS and to all ANZ’s debts and liabilities to its depositors and all other creditors, other than indebtedness that by its terms ranks equally with or junior to the CPS in a winding-up,

in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii), with respect to priority of payment in a winding-up.

(c) The Liquidation Sum is an amount out of surplus assets equal to $100 plus the amount of any Dividend (including any Optional Dividend) determined to be paid but unpaid.

10.3 Further issues not to vary class rights

The allotment or issue of preference shares (including further CPS), or the conversion of existing shares into preference shares, ranking junior to, equally with or, (to the maximum extent permitted by the Constitution) senior to the CPS then on issue for participation in profits or assets of ANZ, and whether entitled to cumulative or non-cumulative dividends, or a redemption, buy-back or return or distribution of capital in respect of any share capital other than a CPS, whether ranking junior to, equally with, or senior to, the CPS, is expressly permitted and authorised by these CPS Terms and does not constitute a modification or variation of the rights or privileges to the CPS then on issue.

10.4 Calculations and rounding of payments

Unless otherwise specified in these CPS Terms:

(a) all calculations of amounts payable in respect of a CPS will be rounded to four decimal places; and
(b) for the purposes of making payment to a CPS Holder in respect of the CPS Holder’s aggregate holding of CPS, any fraction of a cent will be disregarded.

10.5 No set-off or offsetting rights

A CPS Holder:

(b) will have no offsetting rights or claims on ANZ if ANZ does not pay a Dividend when scheduled under CPS.

10.6 No security

CPS are unsecured.

10.7 Shortfall on winding-up

If, upon a return of capital on a winding-up of ANZ, there are insufficient funds to pay in full the Liquidation Sum and the amounts payable in respect of any other instruments in ANZ ranking equally with CPS on a winding-up of ANZ, CPS Holders and the holders of any such other instruments will share in any distribution of assets of ANZ in proportion to the amounts to which they are entitled respectively.

10.8 No participation in surplus assets

CPS do not confer on the CPS Holders any further right to participate in the surplus assets of ANZ on a winding-up beyond payment of the Liquidation Sum.

10.9 Power of attorney

(a) Each CPS Holder appoints each of ANZ, its officers and any External Administrator of ANZ (each an Attorney ) severally to be the attorney of the CPS Holder with power in the name and on behalf of the CPS Holder to sign all documents and transfers and do any other thing as may in the Attorney’s opinion be necessary or desirable to be done in order for the CPS Holder to observe or perform the CPS Holder’s obligations under these CPS Terms including, but not limited to, accepting any buy-back offer, effecting any transfers of CPS, making any entry in the Register or exercising any voting power in relation to any consent or approval required for Conversion, Redemption or Resale or in respect of an Approved NOHC Event.
(b) The power of attorney given in this clause 10.9 is given for valuable consideration and to secure the performance by the CPS Holder of the CPS Holder’s obligations under these CPS Terms and is irrevocable.

10.10 CPS Holder acknowledgments

Each CPS Holder irrevocably:

(a) upon Conversion of a CPS in accordance with clause 7, consents to becoming a member of ANZ and agrees to be bound by the Constitution (or, where an Approved NOHC Substitution Notice has been given, consents to becoming a member of that Approved NOHC and agrees to be bound by its constitution);
(b) acknowledges and agrees that an Approved NOHC may be substituted for ANZ as provider of ordinary shares on Conversion and that if such a substitution is effected, the CPS Holder is obliged to accept ordinary shares in that Approved NOHC on a Conversion, and will not receive Ordinary Shares;
(c) acknowledges and agrees that any amendment made in accordance with clause 16.1(g) to effect the substitution of an Approved NOHC as the issuer of ordinary shares on Conversion or in accordance with clause 9.6 will not constitute a variation of any class rights attaching to CPS;
(d) acknowledges and agrees that it is obliged to accept ordinary shares upon a Conversion notwithstanding anything that might otherwise affect a Conversion of CPS including:

(i) any change in the financial position of ANZ or any Approved NOHC since the Issue Date;
(ii) any disruption to the market or potential market for the ordinary shares or to capital markets generally; or
(iii) any breach by ANZ or any Approved NOHC of any obligation in connection with CPS;

(g) acknowledges and agrees that a CPS Holder has no right to request an Exchange.

10.11 On-market buy-backs

(b) CPS do not confer on CPS Holders any right to subscribe for new securities in ANZ or to participate in any bonus issues of securities of ANZ.

11 Voting and other rights

11.1 Meetings

In accordance with the Constitution, a CPS Holder will have the same rights as the holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to receiving notices of general meetings and financial reports and attending ANZ’s general meetings.

11.2 Voting rights

(a) A CPS Holder shall have the right to speak and vote at a meeting of members of ANZ in the following circumstances and in no others:
(i) on any proposal to reduce ANZ’s share capital, other than a resolution to approve a Redemption of the CPS;
(ii) on a proposal that affects the rights attached to the CPS;
(iii) on any resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement, other than a resolution to approve a Redemption of CPS;
(iv) on a proposal to wind up ANZ;

11.3 Not a “voting share”

Each CPS Holder acknowledges and agrees that a CPS will not constitute a “voting share” for the purposes of the Corporations Act.

11.4 No vote on NOHC Event

To the maximum extent permitted by law, a CPS Holder has no right to vote on any proposal to approve, implement or give effect to a NOHC Event. If applicable law entitles a CPS Holder to vote on a proposal to approve, implement or give effect to a NOHC Event, each CPS Holder will vote in favour of any resolution to approve, implement or give effect to the NOHC Event.

11.5 No right to apply for the winding-up of ANZ

Each CPS Holder acknowledges and agrees that a CPS Holder has no right to apply for ANZ to be wound up, or placed in administration, or to cause a receiver, or a receiver and manager, to be appointed in respect of ANZ merely on the grounds that ANZ does not pay a Dividend when scheduled in respect of CPS.

11.6 No events of default

Each CPS Holder acknowledges and agrees that these CPS Terms contain no events of default. Accordingly (but without limitation) failure to pay in full, for any reason, a Dividend on the scheduled Dividend Payment Date will not constitute an event of default.

12 Takeovers and schemes of arrangement

If:

(a) a takeover bid is made for Ordinary Shares, acceptance of which is recommended by the Directors; or
(b) the Directors recommend a scheme of arrangement in respect of the Ordinary Shares of ANZ which will result in a person other than ANZ having a relevant interest in more than 50% of the Ordinary Shares,

in each case which would result in an Acquisition Event then, if the Directors consider that APRA will not approve Exchange of CPS in accordance with clause 5 or clause 6, or the Second Mandatory Conversion Condition or the Third Mandatory Conversion Condition will not be satisfied in respect of the Change of Control Exchange Date in accordance with clause 6, the Directors will use all reasonable endeavours to procure that equivalent takeover offers are made to

CPS Holders or that they are entitled to participate in the scheme of arrangement or a similar transaction.

13 Approved NOHC Events

13.1 ANZ may give Approved NOHC Substitution Notice

If:
(a) an Approved NOHC Event is proposed to occur; and
(b) the Approved NOHC agrees for the benefit of CPS Holders:
(i) to deliver Approved NOHC Ordinary Shares under all circumstances when ANZ would have otherwise been obliged to deliver Ordinary Shares on a Conversion, subject to the same terms and conditions as set out in these CPS Terms as amended by this clause 13; and
(ii) to use all reasonable endeavours and furnish all such documents, information and undertakings as may be reasonably necessary in order to procure quotation of all Approved NOHC Ordinary Shares issued under these CPS Terms (with all necessary modifications) on the securities exchanges on which the other Approved NOHC Ordinary Shares are quoted at the time of a Conversion,

ANZ may give a notice (an Approved NOHC Substitution Notice ) to CPS Holders (which, if given, must be given as soon as practicable before the Approved NOHC Event and in any event no later than 10 Business Days before the Approved NOHC Event occurs) specifying the amendments to these CPS Terms which will be made in accordance with clause 16.1(f) to effect the substitution of an Approved NOHC as the issuer of ordinary shares on Conversion (the Approved NOHC Substitution Terms ).

An Approved NOHC Substitution Notice, once given, is irrevocable.

13.2 Consequences of Approved NOHC Substitution Notice

If ANZ gives an Approved NOHC Substitution Notice to CPS Holders in accordance with clause 13.1, the Approved NOHC Substitution Terms will have effect on and from the date specified in the Approved NOHC Substitution Notice.

14 Notices

14.3 Non-receipt of notices by CPS Holders

The non-receipt of a notice by a CPS Holder or an accidental omission to give notice to a CPS Holder will not invalidate the giving of that notice either in respect of that CPS Holder or generally.

The Constitution contains provisions relating to payments in respect of shares and the relevant provisions apply (with all necessary modifications) in respect of each payment on the CPS.

15.2 Payment to joint CPS Holders

A payment to any one of joint CPS Holders will discharge ANZ’s liability in respect of the payment.

16 Amendment of these CPS Terms
