Dear Shareholder
It is my pleasure to invite you to Westpac’s 2017

The meeting will be held in The Darling Harbour
Theatre, on Level 2, at the International Convention
Centre Sydney on Friday, 8 December 2017, at
10:00am. Registration commences from 9:00am.
The AGM is an opportunity for shareholders to
hear from the Board and the Executive team, to
ask questions about the company and to vote on
matters before the meeting. I hope you will be able
to attend. Our Managing Director and Chief Executive
Officer, Brian Hartzer, and I will both speak to
update shareholders on performance and important
developments over the year.
If you are unable to attend the AGM, you can
view the meeting via our live webcast from our
website www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
Alternatively you may view the recorded webcast
after the meeting at a time that suits you. If you
cannot attend and wish to vote you will need to
lodge a direct vote or appoint a Proxy. The easiest
way to cast a direct vote or appoint a Proxy is
online via our Share Registry’s dedicated website
vote.linkmarketservices.com/WBC or by scanning
the QR code on the back of the Voting Form and
following the prompts. Other methods of voting are
described in detail in this Notice of Meeting.
The Board is always keen to hear from shareholders
and so, if you cannot attend, you can submit a
question relevant to the AGM prior to the meeting
through the voting site above or by returning the
question form included with this Notice of Meeting.
We will not be able to respond to all questions
submitted, but I will consider these questions in
preparing my AGM address.

Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
The 2017 AGM agenda will be similar to recent years.
There are items for the accounts, the remuneration
report, the granting of equity to the Chief Executive
Officer and the re-election of three directors,
including myself. This year we are also asking
shareholders to vote on the appointment of a new
director, Nerida Caesar. Finally, we have resolutions
on the terms and conditions to facilitate the buy-backs
of Westpac Convertible Preference Shares.
As in prior years, we aim to make the event as
accessible as possible, with arrangements for the
mobility impaired, a sign language interpreter and
hearing loop facilities. Details of how to get to the
AGM are set out at the back of this document.
If you have elected to receive a hard copy of our
Annual Report and/or our Annual Review and
Sustainability Report, you will receive these in a
separate envelope shortly. These reports will also
be available on our website once they have been
lodged with the ASX. As always, your Board and the
Executive team look forward to meeting with you
over light refreshments at the conclusion of the AGM.
I look forward to welcoming you to the AGM.
Yours sincerely,
Lindsay Maxsted

2017 Annual General Meeting
Voting exclusions
Items 2 and 3 – Remuneration Report and
grant of equity to Managing Director and Chief
Executive Officer
Items 2 and 3 are resolutions directly or indirectly
related to remuneration of a member of the Key
Management Personnel (KMP) of Westpac. Westpac’s
KMP are set out in Westpac’s Remuneration Report.
The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act)
restricts KMP and their closely related parties from
voting in certain circumstances on such resolutions.
A ’closely related party’ of a KMP includes a spouse,
dependants and certain other close family members,
as well as any companies controlled by the KMP.
In accordance with these requirements, Westpac will
disregard any votes cast on Item 2, in any capacity,
by or on behalf of a member of the KMP or that KMP’s
closely related parties. Westpac will also disregard any
votes cast on Items 2 and 3 as Proxy by any member
of the KMP at the date of the AGM or that KMP’s
closely related parties, unless the vote is cast:
•by a Proxy for a person entitled to vote, in
accordance with the directions on the Voting Form;
or
•by the Chairman of the AGM as Proxy for a person
entitled to vote, in accordance with an express
authority on the Voting Form to vote undirected
proxies as the Chairman sees fit.
In addition, Westpac will disregard any votes cast on
Item 3 by Mr Hartzer and any associate of Mr Hartzer
in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules. However,
Westpac will not disregard a vote cast by Mr Hartzer
as Proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in
accordance with the directions on the Voting Form.
Mr Hartzer is the only Director currently eligible to
participate in an employee incentive scheme.

Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
Items 4(a) and 4(b) – Buy-back of Westpac
Convertible Preference Shares
Under the Corporations Act Westpac is required to
disregard any votes cast in favour of Items 4(a) and
4(b) by a person whose CPS may be bought back
(or by their associates or proxies). This voting
restriction applies not only to that person’s CPS but
to their other shareholdings in Westpac (including
ordinary shares).
However, Westpac has obtained an exemption from
the Australian Securities and Investments Commission
so a CPS holder who also holds ordinary shares as a
nominee or custodian (Nominee Holder) for another
person (Beneficial Holder) can vote those ordinary
shares in favour of Items 4(a) and 4(b), provided that:
•the Nominee Holder either:
–appoints a Proxy prior to the AGM; or
–lodges a direct vote on the Voting Form prior to
the AGM; and
•before the date of the AGM, the Nominee Holder
provides Westpac with written confirmation to the
effect that:
–the Nominee Holder has received written
confirmation from the Beneficial Holder to the
effect that the Beneficial Holder does not hold
any CPS and is not an associate of a person who
holds CPS; and
–the Beneficial Holder has given a direction to
the Nominee Holder to vote in favour of the
resolution.
Otherwise, no holder of CPS or their associates are
entitled to vote in favour of Items 4(a) and 4(b) and
no holder of CPS may vote on Item 4(b).
However, Westpac will not disregard a vote if it is cast:
•by a Proxy for a person entitled to vote, in
accordance with the directions on the Voting Form;
or
•by the Chairman of the AGM as Proxy for a person
entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions
on the Voting Form.

the direct voting section of the Voting Form and
returning it in accordance with the instructions below.
For your vote to be counted, you must complete
the voting directions for each Item by marking ‘For’,
‘Against’ or ‘Abstain’.
If you vote on at least one Item but leave other Items
blank, the vote on the Items marked will be valid but
no vote will be counted for the Items left blank.

By submitting a direct vote, you agree to be bound
by the direct voting rules adopted by the Board.
The direct voting rules are available on the Westpac
website at www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
Further instructions on direct voting are available on

Appointing a Proxy
Shareholders are entitled to appoint up to two
Proxies to attend the AGM on their behalf, and vote
in accordance with their instructions on the Voting
Form. A Proxy need not be a shareholder of Westpac.
Where two Proxies are appointed, each Proxy can
be appointed to represent a specified proportion
or number of a shareholder’s votes. If no number
or proportion of votes is specified, each Proxy may
exercise half of the shareholder’s votes.

11
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
If a Proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on a
resolution, they must not vote on the shareholder’s
behalf, and any vote cast will not be counted.
If you appoint a Proxy (other than the Chairman of
the AGM) and direct them how to vote, the Chairman
of the AGM must cast those Proxy votes on your
behalf if your Proxy does not do so.
If you appoint the Chairman of the AGM as your Proxy
(or if he is appointed by default), and no direction is
provided in relation to Item 2 or Item 3, you will be
expressly authorising the Chairman to exercise your
Proxy as the Chairman sees fit in relation to those
Items, even though those Items are connected directly
or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of
Westpac’s KMP. If you wish to appoint the Chairman
of the AGM as Proxy with a direction as to how to
vote on an Item, including Item 2 and Item 3, you
should specify this by completing the ‘For’, ‘Against’
or ‘Abstain’ boxes on the Voting Form. The Chairman
of the AGM intends to vote all available Proxies in
favour of all resolutions.
If you appoint a Director (other than the Chairman)
or another member of Westpac’s KMP or their closely
related parties as your Proxy, you must specify how
they should vote on Item 2 and Item 3 by completing
the ‘For’, ‘Against’ or ‘Abstain’ boxes on the Voting
Form. If you do not, your Proxy will not be able to
exercise your vote for that Item.
Shareholders are encouraged to direct their Proxies
on how to vote. If a Proxy is not directed how to vote,
the Proxy may vote, or abstain, as they see fit except
as described above for Item 2 and Item 3. Should any
new Items be proposed at the AGM, a Proxy may vote
on those Items as they see fit.
Further instructions on appointing Proxies are
available on the reverse of the Voting Form or online

Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
Explanatory notes
Item 1: Financial Reports
This Item relates to Westpac’s Financial Report,
Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report (the
Reports) for the year ended 30 September 2017.
This Item does not require a formal resolution and
so no vote will be held. However shareholders will
be given an opportunity to ask questions on the
Reports. The Reports are in Westpac’s 2017 Annual
Report and can be accessed on our website at
www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
Item 2: Remuneration Report
Shareholders are asked to adopt Westpac’s
Remuneration Report for the year ended
30 September 2017. This report is included
in the Directors’ Report in Westpac’s
2017 Annual Report and is available at
www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
The Remuneration Report outlines Westpac’s
remuneration strategy and objectives and provides
details of Board and KMP remuneration received
during the year. Westpac’s remuneration strategy
is designed to attract and retain talented employees,
by rewarding them for achieving high performance
and delivering superior long-term results for
customers and shareholders, while adhering to
sound risk management and governance principles
and reflecting accountability. The remuneration
strategy also seeks to align the interests of KMP
with shareholders.
Westpac’s remuneration strategy for Non-executive
Directors is to remunerate them appropriately
for their time, expertise and insight into strategic
and governance issues, and to ensure Westpac
is able to attract and retain high quality and
experienced Directors.

14
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
Westpac values shareholder feedback and the Board
will take the outcome of the vote into account when
considering future remuneration policies, however the
vote on this resolution is advisory only and will not
bind the Board or Westpac.
A voting exclusion applies to this resolution, as set out
earlier in this Notice of Meeting.
The Board unanimously recommends
shareholders vote in favour of adopting the
Remuneration Report.
The Chairman of the AGM intends to vote all
available proxies in favour of this resolution.
Item 3: Grant of Equity to Managing Director
and Chief Executive Officer
Shareholders are asked to vote on whether the CEO,
Brian Hartzer, should receive equity securities as
part of his 2018 financial year remuneration, rather
than cash.
The Board believes the CEO’s interests should
be closely aligned to the long-term interests of
shareholders. Accordingly, the Board believes the
CEO should maintain a substantial shareholding in
Westpac and receive part of his remuneration in the
form of equity that only vests if certain conditions or
hurdles are achieved.
It is proposed that equity grants to Mr Hartzer be
made up of two elements:
1. Under the CEO Restricted Share Plan (CEO RSP),
half of Mr Hartzer’s short-term incentive would be
paid as deferred shares that only vest if he remains
with Westpac or in other limited circumstances
discussed below. These deferred shares would vest
in two tranches over two years.
2. Under the CEO Long Term Incentive Plan (CEO
LTIP), long-term incentives would be allocated in
the form of performance share rights which only
vest if certain hurdles are met.

15
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
An overview of these plans is provided below.
1. Overview of the CEO RSP and CEO LTIP
The CEO RSP and CEO LTIP were established
to provide deferred short-term incentive (STI)
and long-term incentive (LTI) awards to our
CEO. The terms of the CEO RSP and CEO LTIP
were determined by the Board in accordance
with Mr Hartzer’s employment agreement and,
consistent with our remuneration strategy, have
been designed to link Mr Hartzer’s remuneration
to sustained long-term value for shareholders. The
plans are considered appropriate as they:
•place a high proportion of Mr Hartzer’s
remuneration at risk because, to receive value,
certain performance goals and hurdles must be
achieved. These goals and hurdles are aligned
to achieving superior shareholder value;
•align Mr Hartzer’s remuneration outcomes with
the interests of shareholders; and
•ensure Mr Hartzer’s remuneration is competitive
and aligned with market remuneration in the
financial services industry.
Each year, the Board determines Mr Hartzer’s
STI target amount. The STI amount Mr Hartzer
is actually awarded is then determined by the
Board at the end of each financial year based on
his performance against a balanced scorecard
of financial and non-financial objectives. The STI
amount awarded will range between 0% and 150%
of the STI target amount. The Board currently
requires that 50% of any STI award granted be
deferred under the CEO RSP. This approach
would see Mr Hartzer receive restricted shares
that subsequently vest in two equal tranches
over the following two years. The Board retains
the discretion to determine the portion of any
STI award that is deferred and the period of any
such deferral.
Each year, under the CEO LTIP, Westpac may
grant performance share rights to Mr Hartzer. If
certain performance hurdles are met, and these

16
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
rights vest, Mr Hartzer is entitled to one Westpac
ordinary share for each vested performance share
right. The CEO LTIP award only delivers value to Mr
Hartzer if certain performance hurdles are satisfied.
These hurdles are based on a peer-weighted Total
Shareholder Return (TSR) index and Westpac’s
average cash Return on Equity (ROE).
2. Why is shareholder approval being sought?
Under the CEO RSP and LTIP, the Board decides
whether any shares awarded will be acquired
on-market or issued by Westpac. In order to retain
flexibility to issue shares under either the CEO
RSP or the CEO LTIP, shareholder approval is
being sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 which
requires shareholder approval if a director is issued
securities under an employee incentive scheme. If
shareholder approval is not obtained, Mr Hartzer’s
deferred STI and LTI will be delivered in cash.
Shareholder approval is also being sought for the
purposes of section 200B and section 200E of
the Corporations Act for any termination benefits
that might be given to Mr Hartzer in connection
with the deferred STI and LTI awards covered by
Item 3. If approved, Mr Hartzer will be entitled to
receive any benefit arising through these awards
upon termination (subject to various conditions),
in addition to any other termination benefits
that may be provided to him, without further
shareholder approval. It is intended that this
approval will remain valid during the life of any
securities granted in relation to Item 3.
Further details of Mr Hartzer’s remuneration
package and performance hurdles for Westpac’s
2017 financial year are set out in the Remuneration
Report in Westpac’s 2017 Annual Report, which is
available at www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
3. CEO RSP – 2018 STI award
Mr Hartzer’s 2018 STI target is $2,686,000. Once
Mr Hartzer’s 2018 STI award has been determined
by the Board (which will be assessed at the end
of the 2018 financial year), 50% will be delivered

17
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
in cash and 50% as restricted shares under the
CEO RSP.
Half of Mr Hartzer’s deferred STI will be restricted
for one year from the commencement of the
restriction period (1 October 2018) and the
remainder will be restricted for two years.
If new shares are issued by Westpac to satisfy
this obligation, the number of restricted shares
Mr Hartzer receives will be determined by dividing
the dollar value of his deferred STI by the market
price (being the volume weighted average market
price of Westpac’s ordinary shares, as traded
on the ASX in the five trading days up to and
including the day before the award is made).
If Westpac acquires shares on-market to satisfy
this obligation, the market price is the average
purchase price of the shares.
Example: Assuming Mr Hartzer is awarded 100%
of his 2018 STI target for his 2018 financial year
performance, he would be entitled to $2,686,000.
Half of that (i.e. $1,343,000) would be paid in cash
and the other half would be delivered as restricted
shares. Assuming a market price of $33.00 per
share, 40,696 restricted shares would be granted
to Mr Hartzer in December 2018. Subject to
meeting the conditions of the restricted shares,
half of the restricted shares would be released to
Mr Hartzer on 1 October 2019, while the other half
would be released on 1 October 2020. This is an
indicative example only as actual STI will depend
on the CEO’s award and the market price of
Westpac shares at the time of the grant.
4. CEO LTIP – 2018 LTI award
The Board has determined that Mr Hartzer will
receive a 2018 LTI award comprising a grant of
197,654 performance share rights under the CEO
LTIP, to the value of $2,528,000. The number of
performance share rights to be granted to Mr
Hartzer was determined by dividing the dollar
value of the award by the notional value of the
performance share rights at the start of the
performance period (being 1 October 2017).

18
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
For TSR hurdled performance share rights, the
notional value was $12.79 and for ROE hurdled
performance share rights, the notional value was
$12.79.
Example: For illustrative purposes, the face
value of the 2018 CEO LTIP performance share
rights was $6,599,667 (based on the one week
volume weighted average price of Westpac’s
shares traded on the ASX in the week up to
26 October 2017). The face value in this instance
assumes that Westpac achieved the maximum
result for its performance hurdles and so 100%
of the share rights vested. In 2017, the application
of the performance hurdles resulted in 0% of the
LTI award vesting.
The notional values of the TSR and ROE
performance share rights were calculated by an
independent valuer, taking the market price of
Westpac shares at the start of the performance
period, and using a Monte Carlo pricing model.
This methodology is applied consistently across
all Westpac executives who receive performance
share rights.
If no securities vest, the value of the grant will
be $0.
Under the CEO LTIP, Board-determined
performance hurdles must be satisfied before
any securities can vest (except in limited
circumstances such as death or total and
permanent disablement, as explained below).
For the 2018 grant, the performance hurdles are
TSR and ROE. The Board will determine at the
time of grant the number of performance share
rights in two tranches of equal value, one of which
will be subject to the TSR performance hurdle
(TSR Performance Securities) and the other will
be subject to the ROE performance hurdle (ROE
Performance Securities). There will be no re-
testing of either the TSR Performance Securities
or the ROE Performance Securities.

19
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
(a) TSR Performance Securities
The TSR hurdle is a weighted, composite
TSR index (composite TSR index) for a peer
group (peer group) comprising the ten top
Australian financial services companies other
than Westpac.
Within the peer group, each of the other three
major Australian banks has been allocated
a 16.67% weighting, with the other seven
companies each having a 7.14% weighting.
The composite TSR index is calculated by
multiplying each peer group member’s TSR
for the four year performance period by its
weighting, and then adding together the
results of those ten calculations.
Westpac’s TSR for the four year period is then
compared to the composite TSR index.
For 50% of the TSR tranche to vest, Westpac’s
TSR must at least equal the composite TSR
index. For 100% to vest, Westpac’s TSR
must exceed the composite TSR index by an
amount that, when added to the composite
TSR index, simulates historic 75th percentile
performance within the peer group (i.e.
an additional 21.55, reflecting an extra 5%
compound annual growth in TSR over the
four year period).
If Westpac’s TSR is between the composite
TSR index and the composite TSR index plus
21.55, TSR Performance Securities will vest
from 50% up to a possible 100% on a straight
line basis between the composite TSR index
and the composite TSR index plus 21.55.
(b) ROE Performance Securities
The ROE performance hurdle measures the
average cash earnings return on average
ordinary equity (Average Cash ROE) over the
three year performance period.
For the 2018 grant, the performance share
rights are tested against the performance

20
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
hurdles on the third anniversary of the
commencement of the performance period.
If Westpac’s Average Cash ROE is at or
above 14.25%, 100% of the ROE Performance
Securities awarded to Mr Hartzer will qualify
for vesting. If Westpac’s Average Cash ROE is
equal to 13.25%, 50% of the ROE Performance
Securities awarded to Mr Hartzer will qualify
for vesting. If Westpac’s Average Cash ROE
is between 13.25% and 14.25%, the number
of ROE Performance Securities eligible for
vesting will increase on a straight line basis
from 50% to 100% of the total number of
ROE Performance Securities awarded to
Mr Hartzer.
Westpac shares will be allocated to Mr Hartzer
if the performance conditions attached to the
ROE Performance Securities are satisfied. The
ROE Performance Securities that qualify for
vesting as noted above will vest on the fourth
anniversary of the commencement of the
performance period.
5. Cessation of employment
5.1 Deferred STI
Subject to the Board’s discretion, all unvested
restricted shares lapse when Mr Hartzer’s
employment with Westpac ceases, except
where the cessation of his employment:
•is due to death, or total and permanent
disablement; or
•occurs in certain circumstances (such as a
change of control).
If Mr Hartzer’s employment ceases for any of
those reasons, all unvested restricted shares
he holds will vest.
If Mr Hartzer is terminated for misconduct,
all unvested restricted shares will be forfeited.
If, in the Board’s opinion, Mr Hartzer has
acted fraudulently or dishonestly, or is in
material breach of his obligations, all of his

21
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
restricted shares (whether or not vested)
that are subject to a holding lock under the
CEO RSP will be forfeited, unless the Board
determines otherwise.
The Board may in certain circumstances also
adjust the number of unvested restricted
shares downwards, or to zero (in which case
they will lapse). This may occur in order
to respond to significant misconduct by
Mr Hartzer which may result in significant
financial and/or reputational impact
to Westpac.
5.2 LTI
Subject to the Board’s discretion, all unvested
performance share rights lapse when
Mr Hartzer’s employment with Westpac
ceases, except where the cessation of
his employment:
•is due to his death, or total and permanent
disablement; or
•occurs in certain circumstances (such as
a change of control where certain other
conditions are met).
If Mr Hartzer’s employment ceases for any of
those reasons, all unvested performance share
rights that he holds will vest.
If, in the Board’s opinion, Mr Hartzer has acted
fraudulently or dishonestly, or is in material
breach of his obligations, the Board may
determine that his unvested performance
share rights under the CEO LTIP will lapse.
The Board may in certain circumstances also
adjust the number of unvested performance
share rights downwards, or to zero (in which
case they will lapse). This may occur in order
to respond to significant misconduct by
Mr Hartzer which may result in significant
financial and/or reputational impact
to Westpac.

22
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
5.3 Termination benefits
Early vesting of Mr Hartzer’s deferred STI and
LTI in the circumstances outlined above may
amount to the giving of a termination benefit.
The Board also has discretion in relation
to performance share rights and unvested
restricted shares where Mr Hartzer ceases
employment under certain circumstances
that do not involve serious misconduct. This
discretion enables the Board to vest or leave
the performance share rights on foot, subject
to the performance hurdles. In relation to
the deferred STI, the discretion enables the
Board to leave unvested restricted shares
on foot and vest only on the expiry of the
full term stated in the CEO RSP. The Board
may determine to exercise this STI and
LTI discretion in circumstances where Mr
Hartzer’s employment ceases without fault on
his part. In determining whether to exercise
its discretion, the Board will take into account
all relevant circumstances, which may include
Mr Hartzer’s (and Westpac’s) performance
against applicable performance hurdles at
the date of cessation, as well as Mr Hartzer’s
individual performance and the period that
has passed from the date of grant to the date
of cessation.
The value of any termination benefits that
may be given to Mr Hartzer by reason of
early vesting of any of his 2018 deferred STI
and LTI awards or the exercise of the Board’s
discretion that his unvested restricted shares
and performance share rights will not lapse,
cannot be determined in advance. This is
because, in addition to the factors listed
above, the value at the date of cessation of
employment will also depend upon:
•the number of securities initially granted as
part of a deferred STI or LTI award;
•the date when, and circumstances in which,
Mr Hartzer ceases employment;

23
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
•Westpac’s share price at the date of vesting;
and
•the number of unvested securities held by
Mr Hartzer at the time of cessation.
6. Further information
(a) No loans are, or will be, granted to Mr Hartzer
in connection with participation in either the
CEO RSP or the CEO LTIP.
(b) Details of any shares issued under the CEO
RSP and performance share rights granted
under the CEO LTIP will be published in
each Annual Report relating to the period in
which the securities were issued. The Annual
Report will note that approval for issue of
those securities was obtained under Listing
Rule 10.14.
(c) Mr Hartzer is the only Director of Westpac
entitled to participate in the CEO RSP and
the CEO LTIP. If shareholders vote in favour
of Item 3, no additional person who becomes
entitled to participate in the CEO RSP or the
CEO LTIP will participate until approval is
obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.
(d) Mr Hartzer is not permitted to trade in
securities received under the CEO RSP or
CEO LTIP until they have vested. After vesting,
any trading must comply with Westpac’s
Securities Trading Policy. Restricted shares
carry dividend and voting rights during the
restriction period. Performance share rights
do not receive dividends and do not have
voting rights.
(e) If shareholder approval is obtained, the
issue of restricted shares and performance
share rights (and the shares underlying
the performance share rights) will be
approved for the purposes of all applicable
requirements, including sections 200B and
200E of the Corporations Act and Listing
Rule 10.14.

24
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
(f) Westpac will issue the restricted shares in or
about December 2018 and performance share
rights in December 2017, and in any event, no
later than three years after the AGM.
(g) Mr Hartzer was awarded 40,666 shares under
the FY16 CEO RSP with a value of $1,302,710
and 211,548 share rights under the FY17 CEO
LTIP with a value of $2,528,000.
Further information on the CEO RSP and CEO
LTIP is available in the Remuneration Report.
Details on the voting exclusion which applies to
this resolution can be found earlier in this Notice
of Meeting.
The Board (other than Mr Hartzer) unanimously
recommends shareholders vote in favour of
Item 3.
The Chairman of the AGM intends to vote all
available proxies in favour of this resolution.
Item 4: Buy-Back of Westpac Convertible
Preference Shares
Approval is being sought for two buy-back schemes
relating to the CPS to provide Westpac with flexibility
in managing its capital base by enabling Westpac to
acquire and cancel the CPS.
Approval is being sought:
•under Item 4(a), for the First Buy-back Scheme,
which involves a buy-back of the CPS outside of the
terms of the CPS but otherwise in accordance with
the Corporations Act; and
•under Item 4(b), for the Second Buy-back Scheme,
which involves a buy-back of the CPS within the
terms of the CPS.
One or both of these buy-back schemes could be
used and implemented at different times for up to
100% of the CPS on issue. Either buy-back scheme,
if approved, would be conducted as an off-market
selective buy-back.

25
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
The maximum number of CPS that may be bought
back under either buy-back scheme is the total
number currently on issue (11,893,605).
Further detail on the buy-back schemes is provided
below. The terms of the CPS are set out in the CPS
Prospectus dated 24 February 2012 (Prospectus)
which is available at
www.westpac.com.au/investorcentre.
1. Background
On 23 March 2012, Westpac issued 11,893,605
Westpac CPS at an issue price of A$100 each,
raising approximately A$1.19 billion.
The terms of the CPS (CPS Terms) can be found
in Appendix B of the Prospectus. Unless otherwise
defined, capitalised terms in this section have the
same meaning as in the CPS Terms.
Under the CPS Terms, if not redeemed, converted
or bought back earlier, the CPS will mandatorily
convert into ordinary shares of Westpac on the
Scheduled Conversion Date. The Scheduled
Conversion Date is 31 March 2020 and if the
Conversion Conditions are not met on this
date, the CPS will convert on the first Dividend
Payment Date after 31 March 2020 on which the
Conversion Conditions are satisfied.
2. What are the buy-back schemes and their terms
(Items 4(a) and 4(b))?
2.1 First Buy-back Scheme – buy-back before
first Optional Conversion/Redemption Date
(Item 4(a))
Under Item 4(a), approval is being sought
for Westpac to buy back up to 100% of the
CPS at any time before the first Optional
Conversion/Redemption Date of 31 March
2018. If Item 4(a) is passed and the First Buy-
back Scheme is approved, and APRA’s prior
written approval has been obtained, Westpac
can make offers outside of the CPS Terms to
all or some holders of CPS to buy back up to
100% of their CPS before the first Optional

26
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
Conversion/Redemption Date. Any buy-back
offer will be made in writing, and CPS holders
who wish to accept the offer must do so in
writing by the deadline specified in the offer.
The buy-back offer will be made on, and any
resulting buy-back agreement will contain, the
following key terms:
•a CPS holder can accept the offer for all or
some of their CPS (the Relevant CPS); and
•on a buy-back date to be specified by
Westpac (which will be before the first
Optional Conversion/Redemption Date of
31 March 2018):
–the Relevant CPS will be sold to Westpac;
and
–Westpac will pay to the CPS holder, for
each of their Relevant CPS, a cash amount
equal to the face value of A$100 and any
dividend payment for the period from
(but excluding) the previous dividend
payment date until (and including) the
buy-back date (subject to payment
conditions).
Any CPS bought back by Westpac will be
cancelled.
2.2 Second Buy-back Scheme – buy-back on
any Optional Conversion/Redemption Date
within 12 months from the date of the AGM
(Item 4(b))
Under the CPS Terms, Westpac may elect
to Redeem some or all of the CPS on an
Optional Conversion/Redemption Date (being
any Dividend Payment Date for the CPS
falling on or after 31 March 2018). Redemption
of the CPS can be effected by way of a buy-
back scheme contained in the CPS Terms.
Under Item 4(b), approval is being sought
for Westpac to buy-back up to 100% of the
CPS on an Optional Conversion/Redemption
Date within 12 months from the date of the

27
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
AGM (Redemption Date). If Item 4(b) is
passed and the Second Buy-back Scheme is
approved (and APRA’s prior written approval
has been obtained), Westpac will have the
option to Redeem by way of a buy-back, up
to 100% of the CPS (Redeemed CPS) on a
Redemption Date.
The buy-back offer will be made on, and any
resulting buy-back agreement will contain, the
terms as required by the CPS Terms, including
that on the Redemption Date:
•the Redeemed CPS will be sold to Westpac;
and
•Westpac will pay to the CPS holder, for
each of their Redeemed CPS, the face value
of A$100 per Redeemed CPS plus any
unpaid Dividends (subject to the payment
conditions).
The CPS Terms provide that if a Redemption
involves a buy-back of CPS, each CPS holder
agrees to accept the buy-back offer for
their CPS to which an Early Conversion/
Redemption Notice relates and will be
deemed to have sold those CPS to Westpac
on the Redemption Date.
Any CPS bought back by Westpac will
be cancelled.
3. Why is shareholder approval being sought?
Westpac is seeking flexibility to manage its capital
base. Approval of Items 4(a) and 4(b) will give
Westpac this flexibility.
Under the Corporations Act, these selective buy-
backs of CPS require the approval of Westpac
shareholders (subject to voting restrictions).
Westpac has decided it is best to seek this
shareholder approval at the AGM rather than hold
a separate extraordinary general meeting.
Any shareholder approval obtained for the buy-
back schemes under Items 4(a) and 4(b) does
not limit the other methods in which Westpac

28
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
could Redeem the CPS (if at all) or affect any
of Westpac’s other rights under the CPS Terms
(including the ability to Transfer CPS to a
Nominated Party under the CPS Terms prior to
any buy-back).
4. Will any buy-back of CPS take place?
No decision has been made by the Board to buy
back the CPS.
If Items 4(a) and 4(b) are approved by
shareholders, the Board will only decide to
undertake a buy-back if it is considered to be
in the best interests of Westpac, it would not
materially prejudice Westpac’s ability to pay
its creditors and any such decision would be
subject to APRA’s prior written approval. This
may depend, among other things, on Westpac’s
financial and capital position, conditions in
domestic and international markets and changes
in the prudential regulation of Westpac.
5. What are the advantages of approving the buy-
back schemes?
The approval of the buy-back schemes will
give Westpac increased flexibility to acquire
and cancel the CPS before the first Optional
Conversion/Redemption Date or on a
Redemption Date without needing to convene an
extraordinary general meeting solely to approve a
buy-back.
6. What are the disadvantages of the
buy-back schemes?
A potential disadvantage of the buy-back
schemes is that upon completion, Westpac would
have a reduced capital base to the extent of the
capital bought back. However, Westpac will not
conduct any buy-back unless it is satisfied that
it would not have a material adverse impact on
Westpac’s financial or regulatory capital position,
or materially prejudice Westpac’s ability to pay
its creditors. In addition, APRA’s prior written
approval is required to undertake a buy-back.

29
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
7. What is the financial effect of the buy-back
schemes on Westpac?
Both buy-back schemes would require Westpac
to make a payment of A$100 for each CPS
bought back. The maximum cost of buying
back 100% of CPS on issue as at the date of this
Notice of Meeting would be A$1,189,360,500. Any
unpaid Dividends, or, as applicable, the amount of
Dividends that would otherwise be payable from
the preceding dividend payment date up to (and
including) the buy-back date, would also need to
be paid subject to the payment conditions.
8. What is the source of funds for the buy-back
schemes?
Westpac maintains significant cash reserves and
has other funding alternatives that could be used
to conduct any buy-back of this size. The Board
would consider the best alternatives to fund any
buy-back.
9. What is the effect of buy-back schemes on the
control of Westpac?
A buy-back pursuant to Items 4(a) and 4(b) will
result in up to all of the CPS being cancelled.
Holders of CPS are entitled to vote (together
with the holders of Westpac ordinary shares)
on a limited number of matters as set out in the
CPS Terms.
The total number of votes capable of being cast
by the holders of CPS on those limited matters
would be up to 11,893,605, or less than 0.35%
of the total votes able to be cast.
Given the limited circumstances in which holders
of CPS can vote, and the number of those votes
set out above, the Board considers that any
buy-back would have no effect on the control
of Westpac.

30
Westpac
2017 Annual General Meeting
10. Who are the affected CPS holders?
As at 30 September 2017, there were 17,988
registered holders of CPS. CPS are quoted
on the ASX and held by a variety of investors
predominantly based in Australia.
11. Do any Directors have any interests in CPS?
No Director of Westpac has any interest in CPS,
other than Mr Peter Hawkins who has an indirect
interest in 1,370 CPS.
There is no other information known to the Board
which may be material to the decision on how
to vote in relation to Items 4(a) and 4(b) which
Westpac has not disclosed to its shareholders.
A voting exclusion applies to Items 4(a) and 4(b),
as set out in this Notice of Meeting.
The Board unanimously recommends
shareholders vote in favour of Items 4(a)
and 4(b).
The Chairman of the AGM intends to vote
all available proxies in favour of Items 4(a)
and 4(b).
Item 5: Re-Election and Election of Directors
Mr Robert Elstone is retiring from the Board
in accordance with the Constitution and is not
seeking re-election.
Mr Lindsay Maxsted, Mr Peter Hawkins and Ms Alison
Deans are retiring by rotation at this meeting in
accordance with the Constitution and are offering
