We (the entity) give ASX the following information.

Part 1 - All issues

You must complete the relevant sections (attach sheets if there is not enough space).

1 +Class of+securities issued or to be issued 2 Number of+securities issued or to be issued (if known) or maximum number which may be issued 3 Principal terms of the+securities (e.g. 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)	1. 2.	Options to subscribe for ordinary shares Fully paid ordinary shares
	1. 2.	159,573 options 10,303,617 fully paid ordinary shares
	1.159,573 options 159,573 Performance Rights (options) exercisable from 17 December 2018 and before the close of business on 16 December 2020 (after which date the Rights will lapse) at a zero exercise price and subject to the following performance conditions: • The Performance Rights will be granted in three equal tranches. oTranche 1 (one third of the grant) will be subject to a relative TSR performance condition, with a Selected Financial Services comparator group; and oTranche 2 (one third of the grant) will be subject to a relative TSR performance condition, with a S&P/ASX50

• See chapter 19 for defined terms.

• comparator group; and

• o Tranche 3 (one third of the grant) will be subject to an Absolute Compound Annual Growth Rate Total Shareholder Return (CAGR TSR) performance condition.

• Tranches 1 & 2 • The proportion of Performance Rights that become exercisable will depend upon the TSR achieved by ANZ relative to the companies in the applicable comparator group for tranches 1 and 2. Both tranches 1 & 2 will be measured over the same period (commencing 18 November 2015) and calculated as at the end of the three year performance period (17 November 2018). Performance equal to the median TSR of the relevant comparator group will result in half of the Performance Rights for that tranche becoming exercisable. Each tranche is measured independently.

• • Performance above median will result in further Performance Rights for that tranche becoming exercisable, increasing on a straight-line basis until all of the Performance Rights for that tranche become exercisable where ANZ’s TSR is at or above the 75th percentile of TSR in the relevant comparator group. Where ANZ’s performance falls between two of the comparators TSR is measured on a prorata basis. The actual relative level of TSR, rather than simple ranking, will determine the level of vesting.

Tranche 3

• The proportion of Performance Rights that become exercisable in Tranche 3 will depend upon the Absolute Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) TSR achieved by ANZ relative to the Absolute CAGR TSR targets set by the Board of ANZBGL for this award measured over the three year performance period (commencing 18 November 2015).

• • Performance equal to 9% Absolute CAGR TSR will result in half the Performance Rights becoming exercisable (50% vesting).

• • Performance above 9% Absolute CAGR TSR will result in further Performance Rights becoming exercisable, increasing on a straight-line basis until all of the Performance Rights become exercisable where ANZ’s Absolute CAGR TSR is 13.5% (100% vesting).

• The Board retains discretion to adjust the Absolute CAGR TSR hurdle in exceptional circumstances to ensure that employees are neither advantaged nor disadvantaged by matters outside management’s control that materially affect achievement of the

• Absolute CAGR TSR performance condition.

• Tranches 1, 2 & 3

• An averaging calculation is used for TSR over a 90 trading day period for start and end values in order to reduce share price volatility.

• • Each tranche will be assessed independently; therefore the proportion of Performance Rights vesting in each Tranche will have no bearing on the proportion vesting in the other Tranches.

• • Each TSR performance hurdle for the three tranches of Performance Rights will only be tested once at the end of the three year performance period. The percentage of Performance Rights in a tranche that vest as a result of the TSR calculation will be fixed for the duration of the exercise period. If the Performance Rights do not pass the performance hurdle on the testing date, or they are not exercised by the end of the exercise period (5 years from the date of grant), they will lapse.

• 1. 10,303,617 fully paid ordinary shares Terms of the shares will be the same as the terms of existing ordinary shares

Insert number of fully paid[+] ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the + issue date or date of agreement to issue

Add the following:

• Number of fully paid[+] ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period under an exception in rule 7.2

• Number of fully paid[+] ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period with shareholder approval

• It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items

Subtract the number of fully paid[+] ordinary securities cancelled during that 12 month period “A”

Step 2: Calculate 15% of “A”
“B”	0.15 [Note: this value cannot be changed]
Multiply“A” by 0.15
Step 3: Calculate “C”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1 that has already been used
Insertnumber of+equity securities issued or agreed to be issued in that 12 month period_not counting_those issued: • Under an exception in rule 7.2 • Under rule 7.1A • With security holder approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4 Note: • This applies to equity securities, unless specifically excluded – not just ordinary securities • Include here (if applicable) the securities the subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is annexed • It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items
“C”
Step 4: Subtract “C” from [“A” x “B”] to calculate remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1
“A” x 0.15 Note: number must be same as shown in Step 2
Subtract“C” Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3
Total[“A” x 0.15] – “C”	[Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1]

• See chapter 19 for defined terms.

Part 2

Rule 7.1A – Additional placement capacity for eligible entities Step 1: Calculate “A”, the base figure from which the placement capacity is calculated “A” Note: number must be same as shown in Step 1 of Part 1 Step 2: Calculate 10% of “A” “D” 0.10 Note: this value cannot be changed Multiply “A” by 0.10

Step 3: Calculate “E”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1A that has already been used

Notes:

• This applies to equity securities – not just ordinary securities

• Include here – if applicable – the securities the subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is annexed

• Do not include equity securities issued under rule 7.1 (they must be dealt with in Part 1), or for which specific security holder approval has been obtained

“E”

Step 4: Subtract “E” from [“A” x “D”] to calculate remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A

“A” x 0.10 Note: number must be same as shown in Step 2 Subtract “E” Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3 Total [“A” x 0.10] – “E” Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A
