 ANZ is offering you the opportunity to apply for ANZ Capital Notes 6 and to reinvest

 If you wish to apply for ANZ Capital Notes 6, we recommend that you seek

professional guidance which takes into account your particular investment

objectives, financial situation and needs from a professional adviser who is licensed

by ASIC to give such advice

If you choose to reinvest your CN1, no Application Payment is required.

If you choose not to reinvest your CN1 or you apply for additional ANZ Capital Notes 6, you must

make your Application Payment using BPay®

If you choose to reinvest your CN1, your minimum reinvestment amount is 50 CN1 or all of your

CN1 if you own less than 50 CN1.

The Offer Period is expected to open on 9 June 2021 and close at 5.00pm AEST on 30 June 2021,

although the timetable may be varied and the offer could close early without notice. If you wish to

apply you are encouraged to submit your application as soon as possible after the offer opens.


If you have a broker, you can contact them for information on how to apply.

If I participate in the Reinvestment Offer, will I still be entitled to

receive Distributions?


Yes, you will receive a pro rata distribution on your CN1 for the period from (and including) 1

March 2021 until (but excluding) the issue day for the ANZ Capital Notes 6 (which is expected to

be 8 July 2021).


The distribution remains subject to the Prospectus not being withdrawn, the payment tests in the

CN1 terms and ANZ’s absolute discretion.


Could my application be scaled back?

Applications for ANZ Capital Notes 6 may be scaled back if there is excess demand. In the event of

excess demand, ANZ’s current intention is to give preference to applicants under the Reinvestment

Offer. If your application under the Reinvestment Offer is scaled back, you will continue to hold the

CN1 that are not reinvested (see below).


What happens if I don’t want to reinvest my CN1 in ANZ Capital Notes

6?


Reinvesting your CN1 into ANZ Capital Notes 6 is not compulsory. You may wish to continue to

hold your CN1 or sell your CN1 on the ASX through your broker or otherwise.


Should you continue to hold your CN1 (including because of a scale back), those CN1 will remain

quoted on the ASX until redeemed or converted at a future date in accordance with the CN1 terms.


As at the date of this letter, ANZ intends to issue a redemption notice for the redemption of all

remaining CN1 on 1 September 2021. Any redemption is subject to final approval and may be

subject to conditions. If the final approval is not obtained or any conditions to the redemption are

not satisfied, the redemption may not occur.


As well as the pro rata distribution payable on the issue date for the ANZ Capital Notes 6, you will

also receive a second pro rata distribution for the period from (and including) 8 July 2021 until the

scheduled semi-annual distribution payment date on 1 September 2021, provided that you hold

CN1 on the record date for that distribution. This means that you will receive the original CN1

distribution scheduled to be paid on 1 September 2021 but in two payments rather than one.


Other Important Information

 No brokerage or stamp duty will be payable on your application to participate in the offer.

 The market price of CN1 is subject to change from time to time and CN1 holders may be able

to sell or dispose of their CN1 at a price higher or lower than the price they would receive

under the Reinvestment Offer. The current market price of CN1 is available at asx.com.au.


Thank you for your support of ANZ.
