The maturity profile of these notes is US$30 million expiring September 2028 (10 years), US$70m expiring in September 2031 (13 years), and US$50 million expiring September 2033 (15 years).

All coupon obligations and the final principal repayment have been swapped back to Australian dollars, with a weighted average floating rate of 1.99% above 3-month BBSW (or approximately 4.05% at current BBSW of 2.06%).
