Purpose of this Information Memorandum – A$ Covered Bonds

This Information Memorandum relates only to the issuance of A$ Covered Bonds by the Issuer. This Information Memorandum does not relate to, and is not relevant for, any other purpose other than to assist the recipient to decide whether to proceed with a further investigation of the A$ Covered Bonds.

No action has been taken by the Issuer, the Covered Bond Guarantor, the Dealer, the Bond Trustee, the Trust Manager, the Asset Monitor or the Security Trustee which would permit a public offering of any A$ Covered Bonds or distribution of this Information Memorandum in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required (and without limitation none of this Information Memorandum, the Base Prospectus nor any other disclosure document in relation to the A$ Covered Bonds has been, or will be, lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001 of Australia ( Corporations Act ) and no action has been taken which would permit an offering of the A$ Covered Bonds in circumstances that would require disclosure under Parts 6D.2 or 7.9 of the Corporations Act).

Accordingly, no A$ Covered Bonds may be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither this Information Memorandum nor any advertisement or other offering material may be distributed or published in any jurisdiction except under circumstances that will result in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations.

Distribution to professional investors only

This Information Memorandum has been prepared for distribution only to professional investors whose ordinary business includes the buying or selling of securities such as the A$ Covered Bonds. This Information Memorandum is not intended for and should not be distributed to any other person except with the prior written consent of the Issuer.

United States Selling Restrictions

The A$ Covered Bonds and the Covered Bond Guarantee have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act ), or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States and the A$ Covered Bonds may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred except in an offshore transaction to non-US persons in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act ( Regulation S ).

Listing

The A$ Covered Bonds may be listed on such stock exchange(s) or regulated markets as may be agreed between the Issuer, the Covered Bond Guarantor and each relevant dealer from time to time. The Issuer is not obliged to, and does not undertake to any prospective investor that it will, arrange for the listing of the A$ Covered Bonds.

References to Credit Ratings

There are references in this Information Memorandum and in the Base Prospectus to the credit ratings of the Issuer and/or Covered Bonds. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold A$ Covered Bonds and may be subject to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the relevant designated rating agency.

Credit ratings in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds or the Issuer may be distributed to persons in Australia only if such persons are not a “retail client” within the meaning of section 761G of the Corporations Act and are also sophisticated investors, professional investors or other investors in respect of whom disclosure is not required under Part 6D.2 or Part 7.9 of the Corporations Act and, in all cases, in such circumstances as may be permitted by acceptable law in any jurisdiction in which an investor may be located. Accordingly, anyone in Australia who is not such a person is not entitled to receive this Information Memorandum and must not distribute it to any person who is not entitled to receive it.

No rating agency has been involved in the preparation of this Information Memorandum.

Currencies

In this Information Memorandum all references to Australian $, AUD and Australian dollars are to the lawful currency of Australia.

5

Australian taxation

Stamp duty

The Issuer has received advice that no ad valorem stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes are currently payable in any Australian jurisdiction on the issue of the A$ Covered Bonds by ANZBGL or the transfer of any A$ Covered Bonds.

Interest withholding tax, other tax matters and recent tax reforms

Potential investors in A$ Covered Bonds should note the discussion of Australian taxation issues in “Taxation - Australia” at pages 288 to 292 (each inclusive) of the Prospectus. That discussion, except in so far is it specifically refers to Global Covered Bonds, Bearer Covered Bonds or Definitive Covered Bonds, is equally applicable to A$ Covered Bondholders.

In particular, under present law, interest and other amounts payable by the Issuer on the A$ Covered Bonds will not be subject to Australian interest withholding tax if they are issued in accordance with certain prescribed conditions set out in section 128F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (Cth) and they are not acquired directly or directly by certain offshore associates of ANZBGL, other than in the capacity of a dealer, manager or underwriter in relation to the placement of the relevant A$ Covered Bonds, or a clearing house, custodian, funds manager or responsible entity of a registered scheme. The Dealer has undertaken not to offer an A$ Covered Bond if the Dealer’s relevant personnel involved in that transaction knew, or had reasonable grounds to suspect, that the Covered Bond or interest in the Covered Bond was being or would be acquired by such an offshore associate of ANZBGL. Potential investors in A$ Covered Bonds should note that the Issuer’s obligation to pay additional amounts to compensate for any withholding or deduction required by law is subject to limitations and exceptions as set out in the A$ Terms and Conditions (and does not apply in respect of A$ Covered Bondholders who are such offshore associates), and that the Covered Bond Guarantor has no obligation to pay any additional amounts to compensate for any withholding or deduction in relation to amounts payable by it under the Covered Bond Guarantee. Each potential investor in A$ Covered Bonds should consult his or her own tax advisors concerning the tax consequences, in their particular circumstances, of the purchase, ownership and disposition of A$ Covered Bonds.

Limited recovery against Covered Bond Guarantor

Potential investors in A$ Covered Bonds should also note that the liability of the Covered Bond Guarantor arising under or in any way connected with the A$ Covered Bonds or any other Programme Document to which the Covered Bond Guarantor is a party is limited to the extent to which that liability can be satisfied out of the assets of the Trust out of which the Covered Bond Guarantor is actually indemnified for the obligation or liability. This limitation shall not apply to any obligation or liability of the Covered Bond Guarantor to the extent that it is not satisfied because, under any Programme Document in respect of the Trust or by operation of law, there is a reduction in the extent of the Trustee’s indemnification out of the assets of the Trust as a result of the Trustee’s fraud, gross negligence or wilful default. Other than in the exception previously mentioned, the assets of the Covered Bond Guarantor are not available to meet payments of interest or repayment of principal on the A$ Covered Bonds.

For further details, refer to “ Covered Bond Guarantor’s Limitation of Liability ” on page 18 of the Base Prospectus.

The liability of the Security Trustee is also limited. Refer to “ Security Trustee’s Limitation of Liability ” on page 19 of the Base Prospectus for further details.

Australian Banking Act

ANZBGL is an “authorised deposit-taking institution” (or ADI ) as that term is defined under the Banking Act 1959 of Australia ( Australian Banking Act ). Accordingly, ANZBGL’s indebtedness in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds is affected by applicable laws, including but not limited to sections 13A and 16 of the

6

Australian Banking Act and section 86 of the Reserve Bank Act 1959 of Australia which require certain specified debts of ANZBGL to be paid in priority to its other indebtedness, including the Covered Bonds.

The issue of A$ Covered Bonds by the Issuer will be subject to, and undertaken in, compliance with Division 3A of Part II of the Australian Banking Act. The Australian Banking Act imposes certain requirements upon an ADI in issuing covered bonds.

For more information about the legislative framework under which the A$ Covered Bonds will be issued and subject to, see “ Background and Australian legislative framework ” on pages 22 to 24 (each inclusive) of the Base Prospectus.

Base Prospectus disclaimers also apply

The preceding paragraphs of this “Important Notice” section do not limit, and should be read in addition to, the statements on pages 1 to 7 (inclusive) of the Base Prospectus.

Financial Services Licence

Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited is authorised representative (No. 266799) under the Australian Financial Services Licence of Perpetual Trustee Company Limited under Part 7.6 of the Corporations Act (Australian Financial Services Licence No. 236643).

Supplements to this Information Memorandum

The Issuer may, including in relation to a particular Series or Tranche of A$ Covered Bonds, issue a further supplement to this Information Memorandum. Any such supplement is to be read in conjunction with this Information Memorandum (including the other documents expressed in this Information Memorandum as necessary to be read in conjunction with this Information Memorandum) and will be taken to supersede the information set out in this Information Memorandum to the extent stated in the relevant supplement.

This Information Memorandum contains specific information relating to the A$ Covered Bonds. It is not a stand alone document, does not contain all information relating to A$ Covered Bonds and is not to be read independently of the Base Prospectus. Potential investors must familiarise themselves with the Base Prospectus and the Programme Documents, if they are considering an investment in A$ Covered Bonds. A$ Covered Bonds will not be registered with the US Securities Exchange Commission.

2 Summary of the A$ Covered Bonds

This section should be read in conjunction with, and, other than as expressly stated, is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the more detailed information which appears in the Base Prospectus and in the Programme Documents.

Issued under the Programme

The A$ Covered Bonds are to be issued under the Programme. The Programme was established by ANZBGL in November 2011 and is described in detail in the Base Prospectus. For a summary of the principal characteristics of the Programme refer to “ Principal Characteristics of the ANZ Global Covered Bond Programme” beginning on page 9 of the Base Prospectus.

Description of the A$ Covered Bonds

Form

The A$ Covered Bonds will be issued in registered uncertificated form by ANZBGL and (unlike the other Covered Bonds issued under the Programme, which are constituted under the Bond Trust Deed) will be constituted pursuant to the Australian Registered Covered Bond Deed Poll dated 14 November 2011 and made by ANZBGL as Issuer, as the same may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time in accordance with the Programme Documents ( Deed Poll ). The terms of the Deed Poll and the reasons for its use, instead of the Bond Trust Deed, for the purposes of constituting the A$ Covered Bonds are described under “ Rights of the A$ Covered Bondholders ” below.

The A$ Covered Bonds (and all other Covered Bonds) will be direct, unsecured and unconditional obligations of the Issuer and will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves and, save for certain debts of the Issuer required to be preferred by law, at least equally with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer.

The A$ Covered Bonds may be issued in Series. The A$ Covered Bonds of each Series are issued with the benefit of the Covered Bond Guarantee, as described in the following paragraphs.

Covered Bond Guarantee

All Covered Bonds, including the A$ Covered Bonds, will be irrevocably and unconditionally (following service of a Notice to Pay or a Covered Bond Guarantee Acceleration Notice, as outlined below) guaranteed as to the payment of scheduled interest and repayment of schedule principal ( Covered Bond Guarantee ) by Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited as trustee of the ANZ Residential Covered Bond Trust ( Covered Bond Guarantor ) in accordance with the Bond Trust Deed dated 14 November 2011 between ANZBGL, the Covered Bond Guarantor, ANZ Capel Court Limited (Australian Business Number 30 004 768 807) as trust manager and DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as bond trustee ( Bond Trust Deed ).

The Covered Bond Guarantor will have no obligation to make payments in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds under the Covered Bond Guarantee until the occurrence of:

• an Issuer Event of Default and service by the Bond Trustee on the Issuer of an Issuer Acceleration Notice (with a copy to the Covered Bond Guarantor) and on the Covered Bond Guarantor (with a copy to the Trust Manager) of a Notice to Pay; or,

• if earlier, following the occurrence of a Covered Bond Guarantor Event of Default and service by the Bond Trustee on the Covered Bond Guarantor (with a copy to the Trust Manager and the Security Trustee) and the Issuer of a Covered Bond Guarantee Acceleration Notice. The Issuer will not rely on any payments by the Covered Bond Guarantor in order to pay interest or repay principal under the A$ Covered Bonds.

8

The Covered Bond Guarantor’s liability in such circumstances is to pay the Guaranteed Amount (as defined in the Base Prospectus). Payment of the Guaranteed Amount is to be made in accordance with the applicable Cashflow Allocation Methodology (as defined in the Base Prospectus).

For details, refer to “ The Covered Bond Guarantee ” on pages 208 to 210 (each inclusive) of the Base Prospectus.

Security for the Covered Bond Guarantor’s obligations

The obligations of the Covered Bond Guarantor to pay Guaranteed Amounts in relation to the A$ Covered Bonds (and certain other indebtedness of the Covered Bonds Guarantor in connection with the Programme Documents) are secured by the security interest (the Charge ) granted by the Covered Bond Guarantor in favour of P.T. Limited (Australian Business Number 67 004 454 666) ( Security Trustee ) pursuant to a Deed of Charge and a Security Trust Deed, each dated 31 October 2011.

The role of the Bond Trustee

The Bond Trust Deed provides that the Bond Trustee will hold the benefit of the covenants by the Issuer in the Deed Poll and the Bond Trust Deed on trust for the A$ Covered Bondholders (and the other Covered Bondholders) and itself in accordance with the terms of the Bond Trust Deed and the other documents which constitute the “Trust Presents”. Except in very limited circumstances, A$ Covered Bondholders may only exercise their rights against the Issuer and the Covered Bond Guarantor in relation to their A$ Covered Bonds through the Bond Trustee.

For more information see “ Rights of A$ Covered Bondholders ” below and “ Terms and Conditions of the Covered Bonds ” beginning on page 123 of the Base Prospectus and “ Summary of the Principal Documents ” beginning on page 208 of the Base Prospectus.

Other relevant Programme Documents

In addition, the Issuer has entered into an Australian registry services agreement dated 14 November 2011 with Austraclear Services Limited (Australian Business Number 28 003 284 419) ( Austraclear Services ) under which Austraclear Services will act as the registrar ( Australian Registrar ) of the A$ Covered Bonds ( Australian Agency Agreement ). Prior to service of a Notice to Pay, the Issuer shall act as the paying agent in respect of A$ Covered Bonds and following service of a Notice to Pay, the Covered Bond Guarantor will effect the relevant payments in accordance with the Australian Agency Agreement and shall act as paying agent in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds if requested to do by the Bond Trustee.

The A$ Covered Bonds of each Series are issued on the condition that each A$ Covered Bondholder of that Series (and any person claiming through or under an A$ Covered Bondholder of that Series) is taken to have notice of, and is bound by, the Base Prospectus, the Deed Poll, the A$ Terms and Conditions (as defined below), the Bond Trust Deed, each Agency Agreement, the Security Trust Deed, the Deed of Charge and each other Programme Document. For further details regarding the terms and conditions of the A$ Covered Bonds see Section 3 “ Terms and Conditions of the A$ Covered Bonds ” of this Information Memorandum.

The Deed Poll, the A$ Terms and Conditions and the Australian Agency Agreement must be read conjunction with the Bond Trust Deed, the Security Trust Deed and the other Programme Documents. The Base Prospectus contains a summary of the Programme and the Programme Documents, including the documents referred to in this paragraph.

Rights of A$ Covered Bondholders

Under the Deed Poll, the Issuer irrevocably undertakes with the Bond Trustee and each A$ Covered Bondholder to:

• pay principal, any interest and any other amounts payable in respect of each A$ Covered Bond of a Series held by the A$ Covered Bondholder in accordance with the Conditions and the Bond Trust Deed; and

9

• comply with the other Conditions of the A$ Covered Bonds of that Series and the Bond Trust Deed.

Each A$ Covered Bondholder may enforce its rights in respect of its A$ Covered Bonds independently from each other A$ Covered Bondholder, the Bond Trustee and any other person, except that:

• Only the Bond Trustee may enforce the provisions of the Bond Trust Deed. No A$ Covered Bondholder shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Issuer or the Covered Bond Guarantor to enforce the performance of any of the provisions of the Bond Trust Deed or to directly enforce the provisions of any other Programme Document (which includes the A$ Covered Bonds) unless the Bond Trustee having become bound to so proceed fails to do so within a reasonable time and such failure is continuing, in which event any A$ Covered Bondholder may, on giving an indemnity and/or prefunding and/or security satisfactory to the Bond Trustee, in the name of the Bond Trustee (but not otherwise) institute such proceedings and/or prove in the winding up, administration or liquidation of the Issuer or the Covered Bond Guarantor to the same extent and in the same jurisdiction (but not further or otherwise than the Bond Trustee would have been entitled to do so in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds and/or the Bond Trust Deed).

• Only the Security Trustee may enforce the Security Trust Deed and the Charge. No A$ Covered Bondholder (or any other Secured Creditor) is entitled to enforce the Charge or the provisions of the Security Trust Deed or to appoint or cause to be appointed a receiver, manager or receiver and manager to any of the Secured Property or otherwise to exercise any power conferred by the terms of any applicable law on charges except as provided in the Security Trust Deed and the Deed of Charge.

For Covered Bonds other than A$ Covered Bonds, the undertakings by the Issuer referred to above are set out in the Bond Trust Deed and such Covered Bonds constituted pursuant to the Bond Trust Deed. ANZBGL has adopted the approach of having the A$ Covered Bonds constituted pursuant to a separate deed poll primarily to accord with market practice in Australian domestic debt markets. However, under the Programme Documents, the A$ Covered Bondholders have the same rights and entitlements as against the Issuer, the Covered Bond Guarantor, the Bond Trustee and other transaction parties as all other Covered Bondholders (subject to differences between the terms and conditions of the various Covered Bonds issued under the Programme).

Lodgment of A$ Covered Bonds in the Austraclear System

The A$ Covered Bonds, when issued, are intended to be entered in the system operated by Austraclear Ltd (ABN 94 002 060 773) for holding securities and the electronic recording and settling of transactions in those securities between members of that system (the Austraclear System ). A$ Covered Bonds entered into the Austraclear System will be transferable only in accordance with the Austraclear Regulations.

A$ Covered Bonds which are held in the Austraclear System will be registered in the name of Austraclear Ltd. Subject to the Austraclear Regulations, accountholders of the Austraclear System may acquire rights against Austraclear Ltd in relation to those Australian Registered Covered Bonds as beneficial owners and Austraclear Ltd is required to deal with such Australian Registered Covered Bonds in accordance with the directions and instructions of such Accountholders. All payments by the Issuer in respect of such A$ Covered Bonds will be made directly to an account agreed with Austraclear Ltd or as it directs in accordance with the Austraclear Regulations.

Accountholders who acquire an interest in A$ Covered Bonds lodged the Austraclear System must look solely to Austraclear Ltd for their rights in relation to such A$ Covered Bonds and will have no claim directly against the Issuer in respect of such A$ Covered Bonds, provided that under the Austraclear Regulations, Austraclear Ltd may direct the Issuer to make payments direct to the relevant accountholders of the Austraclear System.

10

Where Austraclear Ltd is registered as the holder of any A$ Covered Bond that is lodged in the Austraclear System, Austraclear Ltd may, where specified in the Austraclear Regulations, transfer the A$ Covered Bonds to the person in whose Security Record (as defined in the Austraclear Regulations) those A$ Covered Bonds are recorded and, as a consequence, remove those A$ Covered Bonds from the Austraclear System.

Potential investors in Australian Registered Covered Bonds should inform themselves of, and satisfy themselves with, the Austraclear Regulations and (if applicable) the arrangements between them and their nominees in the Austraclear System.

Interests in A$ Covered Bonds traded in Austraclear may be held in Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg. In these circumstances, entitlements in respect of holdings of interests in A$ Covered Bonds in Euroclear would be held in the Austraclear System by a nominee of Euroclear (currently HSBC Custody Nominees (Australia) Limited), while entitlements in respect of holdings of interests in A$ Covered Bonds in Clearstream, Luxembourg would be held in the Austraclear System by a nominee of J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as custodian for Clearstream, Luxembourg.

A$ Covered Bonds which are held in Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg and not registered in the name of Austraclear Ltd will be registered in the name of a nominee for a common depositary for Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be. A$ Covered Bonds which are held in any other clearing system will be registered in the name of the nominee or depositary for that Clearing System. While those A$ Covered Bonds remain in the Austraclear System:

• all payments and notices required of the Issuer, the Covered Bond Guarantor and the Trust Manager in relation to those A$ Covered Bonds will be directed to Austraclear Ltd; and

• all dealings and payments in relation to those A$ Covered Bonds within the Austraclear System will be governed by the Austraclear Regulations.

Registration conclusive

No certificate or other evidence of title will be issued to holders of the A$ Covered Bonds unless the Issuer determines that certificates should be available or it is required to do so pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. Entry of the name of the person in the Australian Register in respect of an A$ Covered Bond constitutes the obtaining or passing of title and is conclusive evidence that the person so entered is the registered holder of the A$ Covered Bonds.

Governing Law and jurisdiction

The A$ Covered Bonds, the Deed Poll and the Australian Agency Agreement are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. The Bond Trust Deed (including the Covered Bond Guarantee and the Terms and Conditions) and the Covered Bonds other than the A$ Covered Bonds, and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them, are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law. Certain other Programme Documents, including the Security Trust Deed are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia.

Ratings

Unless otherwise specified in the Final Terms for a Series or Tranche of A$ Covered Bonds, each Series of A$ Covered Bonds is expected to be assigned on issue a rating of “Aaa” by Moody’s Investors Service Pty Limited and “AAA” by Fitch Australia Pty Limited. No rating agency has been involved in the preparation of this Information Memorandum.

4 Risk Factors

Base Prospectus

Potential investors in A$ Covered Bonds should refer to the section under the heading “ Risk Factors ” on pages 37 to 87 (each inclusive) of the Base Prospectus on that basis that all references to Covered Bonds in that section refer to A$ Covered Bonds, except as may be expressly stated otherwise.

Market Risks

Market risks apply to A$ Covered Bonds as stated in the Base Prospectus. That is, there is no assurance that a secondary market in the A$ Covered Bonds will develop, or if one does develop, that it will provide liquidity of investment or will continue for the life of the A$ Covered Bonds. No assurance will be given that it will be possible to effect a sale of the A$ Covered Bonds, nor can any assurance be given that if a sale were to take place, it would not be at a discount to the acquisition price or the face value of the A$ Covered Bonds .

Enforcement

As outlined in “ Rights of A$ Covered Bondholders ” in section 2 of this Information Memorandum, A$ Covered Bondholders may, except in very limited circumstances, only exercise their rights against the Issuer and the Covered Bond Guarantor through the Bond Trustee and not as against the Issuer or the Covered Bond Guarantor directly and are precluded under the terms of the A$ Covered Bonds from bringing winding-up or certain other proceedings against the Issuer or the Covered Bond Guarantor in any circumstances. The liability of the Covered Bond Guarantor is also limited in the manner described in “ Limited recovery against Covered Bond Guarantor ” in section 1 of this Information Memorandum. Without limitation, except in the limited circumstances in which A$ Covered Bondholders may bring proceedings directly, only the Bond Trustee may enforce the Deed Poll against the Issuer and the Bond Trust Deed against the Covered Bond Guarantor and the Issuer.

In addition, as further described in the Base Prospectus, certain actions that an A$ Covered Bondholder may wish to be taken by the Bond Trustee in relation to the A$ Covered Bonds or the Programme Documents may be taken by the Bond Trustee in its discretion or with the approval of the requisite number of other A$ Covered Bondholders or Covered Bondholders, as the case may be. Without limitation, the Bond Trustee is not obliged to take any enforcement action with respect to the A$ Covered Bonds or the Charge unless directed to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Covered Bondholders of all Series then outstanding or if requested to do so in writing by the holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Covered Bonds of all Series then outstanding, and in either case then only if it shall be indemnified and/or secured and/or prefunded to its satisfaction.

Further, potential investors situated in Australia should note that the Bond Trustee is a company established in Hong Kong which is not registered under the Corporations Act in Australia and may not have a permanent presence in any particular jurisdiction other than Hong Kong (although under the Programme Documents the Bond Trustee has appointed a process agent for the purposes of proceedings in respect of the A$ Covered Bonds and other Programme Documents in Australia and in England, as relevant for the purposes of the relevant Programme Documents).

The above circumstances could mean that an A$ Covered Bondholder may not necessarily be able to bring or initiate enforcement proceedings against a party in relation to the Programme and/or may not recover the full amount of principal invested or interest due in respect of its A$ Covered Bonds.

Relevance of risk factors to Australian investors

Not all risk factors in the Prospectus will be relevant to Australian investors. For example, certain risks in relation to foreign laws or regulations may not apply in relation to Australian investors. Each potential investor should seek its own legal and financial advice before investing in any A$ Covered Bonds.
