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,

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The distribution remains subject to the Prospectus not being withdrawn, the payment tests in the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