Dear Sir/Madam,
Notice of change of interests of substantial holde r
In accordance with section 671B of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), we attach a Notice of Change of Interests of Substantial Holder (Form 604) in respect of Aspen Group.
Following a partial sell-down by Westpac Banking Corporation ( Westpac ) of its shareholding in BT Investment Management Limited (BTIM) from 59.1% to approximately 40% on 23 June 2015, BTIM has ceased to be is an “associate” of Westpac for the purposes of Part 6C.1 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( Act ).
As a result, BTIM no longer has a relevant interest in holdings in Aspen Group held by Westpac or its associates. BTIM is therefore no longer required to aggregate its holdings with Westpac and its associates for the purpose of disclosure under Part 6.1 of the Act.
As Westpac’s shareholding in BTIM continues to exceed 20%, Westpac will retain a relevant interest in securities in which BTIM has a relevant interest (see section 608(3)(a) of the Act) and will therefore continue to disclose securities held by BTIM in Aspen Group.
Yours faithfully,

corporations, or the manager and trustee of an equity trust), the names could be included in an annexure to the form. If the
relevant interests of a group of persons are essentially similar, they may be referred to throughout the form as a specifically
named group if the membership of each group, with the names and addresses of members is clearly set out in paragraph 6
of the form.
(2) See the definition of “associate” in section 9 of the Corporations Act 2001.
(3) See the definition of “relevant interest” in sections 608 and 671B(7) of the Corporations Act 2001.

(5) The person’s votes divided by the total votes in the body corporate scheme multiplied by 100.
(6) Include details of:
(a) any relevant agreement or other circumstances because of which the change in relevant interest occurred. If
subsection 671B(4) applies, a copy of any document setting out the terms of any relevant agreement, and a statement
by the person giving full and accurate details of any contract, scheme or arrangement, must accompany this form,
together with a written statement certifying this contract, scheme or arrangement; and
(b) any qualification of the power of a person to exercise, control the exercise of, or influence the exercise of, the voting
powers or disposal of the securities to which the relevant interest relates (indicating clearly the particular securities to
which the qualification applies).

interest was acquired has, or may, become entitled to receive in relation to that acquisition. Details must be included even if
the benefit is conditional on the happening or not of a contingency. Details must be included of any benefit paid on behalf
of the substantial holder or its associate in relation to the acquisitions, even if they are not paid directly to the person from
