Section 2

Key features of CPS2

CPS2 key terms Non-viabilit y

Non-Viability Trigger Event

What does non-viable mean?

Conversion following a Non-Viability Trigger Event

  • A Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs where APRA determines that CPS2 must be Converted as without that Conversion, or a public sector injection of capital or equivalent capital support, APRA would consider Suncorp to be non-viable

  • APRA has not provided guidance as to how it would determine non-viability

  • Non-viability is expected to include serious impairment of Suncorp’s financial position and insolvency, but may not be limited to solvency measures or capital ratios

  • Upon a Non-Viability Trigger Event occurring, Suncorp must immediately Convert CPS2 into Ordinary Shares

  • There are no conversion conditions and therefore the value of Ordinary Shares could be less (and even considerably less) than $100 per CPS2

  • The aggregate value of Ordinary Shares received on Conversion is limited by capping the number of Ordinary Shares received to the Maximum Conversion Number

  • If Suncorp is prevented from Converting CPS2, the dividend and capital rights attached to the CPS2 will approximate the rights the holder would have had if the CPS2 had converted into Ordinary Shares and this may adversely affect any return in a winding up

  • Suncorp’s constitution does not presently allow the issue of preference shares on terms which include such a feature—Suncorp will seek the approval of shareholders by special resolution to the inclusion of that feature (Shareholder Approval) at its 2012 AGM[1]

  • Maximum • The Maximum Conversion Number is calculated as $100 / (Issue Date VWAP x Relevant Fraction) Conversion • In relation to Conversion due to a Non-Viability Trigger Event the Relevant Fraction is 0.5, except where Number the Conversion occurs after 1 January 2013, in which case it shall be 0.2 (or the lowest other fraction less than 0.5 permitted by APRA)

Note: 1 See slide 12 in relation to Shareholder Approval.

CPS2 key terms

Key risks associated with an investment in CPS2

  • The price at which CPS2 Holders are able to sell CPS2 on ASX is uncertain

  • There may be no liquid market for CPS2

  • The market price of Suncorp Ordinary Shares may fluctuate due to various factors

  • There is a risk that Dividends will not be paid, including where the Directors determine not to pay a Dividend or where APRA objects to a Dividend payment

  • The Dividend Rate will fluctuate (both increasing and decreasing) over time as a result of movements in the Bank Bill Rate

  • It is uncertain whether or when CPS2 may be Exchanged

  • If Conversion occurs following a Non-Viability Trigger Event, you may receive significantly less than $101 worth of Ordinary Shares per CPS2

  • In a winding-up of Suncorp, CPS2 rank ahead of Ordinary Shares, equally with all Equal Ranking Instruments, but behind all creditors of Suncorp

  • Shareholder Approval may not be obtained and as a result, CPS2 would not be Basel III compliant and would only count as regulatory capital in accordance with APRA’s standard transitional treatment

  • See Sections 1.3.1 and 5.1 of the Prospectus for more information on risks associated with CPS2

  • See Sections 1.3.2 and 5.2 of the Prospectus for more information on risks associated with Suncorp
