Disclosure of interests
e) to disclose to ASX:
i. within 14 days after the last disclosure made under
sub-subparagraph 2.1(e)(i) of the Deed Poll made by ANZ on 9
August 2012 in favour of ASIC pursuant to the revoked ASIC
Instrument 12-1078 and thereafter no later than 14 days from the
date the last disclosure was made under this clause 2.1(e) or such
other period as ASIC may agree in writing:
(A) the number of voting shares of ANZ in respect of which it or its
controlled entities have the power to control voting or disposal
expressed as a percentage of the total number of shares of
ANZ; and
(B) the number of voting shares of ANZ in respect of which it or its
controlled entities have a net economic exposure, expressed
as a percentage of the total number of shares of ANZ;
ii. no later than before the end of two business days after the day on
which ANZ became aware of the movement, any movement of at
least 1% in either of the percentages referred to in clause 2.1(e)(i);
and, in making these disclosures, to include the details set out in

D. the broker responsible for executing the trade; and

conducted by the licensee; and
g) to give a written notice to ASIC within five business days after becoming aware

3 Benefit of the Deed Poll

apply to this deed poll.
