Facility (TEF). The Information Memorandum (IM) for TEF is
issued by Westpac. The information contained in the IM is
general information only and has been prepared without
taking into account your individual investment objectives,
needs or financial circumstances. You should read the whole
of the IM, make sure you understand how TEF works and
consider the risk factors in light of your individual investment

Guarantee and Indemnity from any person in relation to a
Protected Loan under TEF, the Guarantor(s) should also obtain
appropriate legal and financial advice.
An investment in Options or a Protected Loan through TEF is
not a deposit with or other liability of Westpac or of any
Westpac Group company, and is subject to investment risk
including possible delays in repayment and loss of amounts
invested. Neither Westpac nor any other Westpac Group
company guarantees the performance of any investment
offered through TEF. TEF is only available to Australian
residents who are wholesale clients (as that term is defined
in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)).

Investment Overview
The following table provides an overview of the BT Tailored Equities
Facility (TEF). You should read this Information Memorandum in full,
including the Terms and Conditions, and seek your own independent
legal, taxation and financial advice before making any decision to invest
through TEF.
TEF overview
Who is the Issuer?

Westpac Banking Corporation, Level 5, 275 Kent St, Sydney NSW 2000, ABN 33 007
457 141, AFSL 233714 (Westpac).

What is TEF?

TEF is an options and lending facility which offers you the opportunity to:
1. purchase and/or sell over-the-counter (OTC) Options
2. borrow to purchase Securities, or use Securities which you already own to borrow
wholly or predominantly for Business or Investment Purposes, through a Protected
Loan
3. fund the exercise of Executive Options with a Protected Loan.

What Securities are


available through TEF?

Selected ASX-quoted securities and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) including generally


the top 50 ASX-quoted securities by market capitalisation. Westpac may extend or
reduce the range of Securities available through TEF at its discretion.

What is the Term of


a TEF transaction?

TEF transactions may have a Term of up to five years, or as otherwise agreed by


Westpac.

What are the tax


considerations?

A general summary of the likely tax treatment of Transactions entered into in connection
with TEF is provided in Section 4 of this IM. You should seek your own tax advice before
investing through TEF.

Who can apply for TEF?

The following entities can apply for TEF:


`` individuals
`` companies
`` trusts with individual trustees or
`` trusts with corporate trustees.
All applicants must be Australian residents for taxation purposes and wholesale clients
(as that term is defined in Chapter 7 of the Corporations Act).

Options overview

What type of Options are


available through TEF?

You can enter into the following types of Options (or combinations thereof) through TEF:
`` Bought Call Options
`` Bought Put Options
`` Sold Call Options
`` Sold Put Options and
`` Collars.
Options through TEF can be American Options or European Options (other than Collars,
which can generally only be European Options). The key features of Options through
TEF can be tailored to your needs.

Who is the Option


counterparty?

Options through TEF are traded over-the-counter or OTC and are not traded on any
exchange or cleared through any clearing house. Westpac is your counterparty in
respect of all Options. As a result, you are exposed to the credit risk of Westpac.

What is a Call Option?

A Call Option gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to buy a specified
parcel of Securities from the seller of the Call Option at a predetermined price on a
predetermined Expiry Date (in the case of an European Option) OR on or before a
predetermined Expiry Date (in the case of an American Option). A Call Option may be
settled by Physical Settlement or Cash Settlement.

Investment Overview (Continued)

What is a Put Option?

A Put Option gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to sell a specified
parcel of Securities to the seller of the Put Option at a predetermined price on a
predetermined Expiry Date (in the case of an European Option) OR on or before a
predetermined Expiry Date (in the case of an American Option). A Put Option may be
settled by Physical Settlement or Cash Settlement.

What is a Collar?

A Collar operates economically in a similar way to a combination of a Put Option and a


Call Option, as if you had purchased a Put Option with a nominated Strike Price (called
the Floor Price) at the same time as you had sold a Call Option to Westpac with a higher
Strike Price (called the Cap Price). Collars can only generally be European Options. A
Collar may be settled by Physical Settlement or Cash Settlement.

What is the minimum


transaction amount?

Each Option transaction must have a Notional Value of at least $500,000. This does not
mean that you must invest $500,000 of your own capital, or that the Option must have
a Premium of $500,000. Rather, the Notional Value for an Option is the number of
Securities in the Parcel for that Option multiplied by the Strike Price for that Option (or, in
the case of a Collar, the Floor Price). Westpac may lower the minimum Notional Value
on a case by case basis at its absolute discretion.

What is the Premium?

The Premium for an Option is the price that the purchaser of an Option pays to
purchase the Option from the seller of the Option. If you purchase an Option other than
a Collar or a Loan Put Option, you will pay a Premium. If you sell an Option, Westpac
will pay a Premium to you.
If you purchase a Collar, you may be required to pay a Premium to Westpac, Westpac
may be required to pay a Premium to you, or there may be no Premium required to be
paid by either party. Whether a Premium is required to be paid, and by which party, will
depend on the parameters of the Collar, in particular, the level of the Floor Price and the
Cap Price.
If you enter into a Protected Loan and are required to acquire a Loan Put Option, you
will not pay any separate Premium in respect of the Loan Put Option. Instead, the
Premium will form part of the interest on the Protected Loan.

What is the Strike Price, the


Floor Price and the Cap
Price?

The Strike Price refers to the price which must be paid to exercise an Option other than
a Collar (in the case of Physical Settlement). A Call Option will be automatically
exercised at Expiry if the Expiry Price of the Securities underlying an Option is greater
than the Strike Price (In-The-Money). A Put Option will be automatically exercised at
Expiry if the Expiry Price of the Securities underlying an Option is less than the Strike
Price (In-The-Money).
In the case of a Collar, there is no Strike Price. Instead there are two relevant prices, the
Floor Price and the Cap Price. A Collar will be automatically exercised at Expiry if the
Expiry Price of the Securities underlying an Option is less than the Floor Price (In-TheMoney) or greater than the Cap Price (In-The-Money).
The Strike Price for an Option other than a Collar, and the Floor Price and Cap Price for
a Collar, will be specified in the relevant Confirmation.

What are the key benefits of


using Options?

There are various potential benefits involved in entering into an Option Transaction.
These benefits will differ depending on the type of Option you have entered into. See
section 1.10 of this IM for an overview of the key benefits of investing in different types
of Options.

What are the key risks of


using Options?

There are various risks involved in entering into an Option Transaction. These risks will
differ depending on the type of Option you have entered into. See section 1.10 of this
IM for an overview of the key risks of investing in different types of Options.

How does the Mortgage


operate?

Sold Call Option


`` If you have Sold Call Options, your obligations to Westpac will be secured by a
Mortgage granted to Westpac over the Security Collateral.
Sold Put Option
`` If you have Sold Put Options, you will be required to lodge Cash Collateral in a
Westpac Account which will become subject to a Mortgage as security for your
obligations under the Sold Put Option.
Collar
`` If you enter into a Collar, your obligations to Westpac will be secured by a Mortgage
granted to Westpac over the Security Collateral.

1800 990 107

What happens at Expiry of an


Option?

The outcomes at Expiry will depend upon the type of Option and whether you nominate
Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement. See section 1.11 of this IM for a table setting
out the various potential consequences at Expiry for the different types of Options.

What are the costs and fees?

Brokerage of up to 1.1% inclusive of GST (but generally 0.22% inclusive of GST) will be
payable in respect of the purchase and sale of Securities underlying Options to which
Physical Settlement applies.
Premium for Bought Call Options, Bought Put Options and (depending on the
parameters) Collars will be payable.
Any other fees as agreed between you and Westpac will also be payable.

Protected Loan overview

What is a Protected Loan?

A Protected Loan is a loan which can be used to purchase Securities (or, if you already
own Securities, you can use a Protected Loan to borrow money against these
Securities, wholly or predominantly for Business or Investment Purposes.
If you borrow using a Protected Loan, you must also purchase a Loan Put Option to
protect an amount at least equal to the Protected Loan Amount. You will not pay any
separate Premium in respect of the Loan Put Option. Instead, the Premium will form
part of the interest on the Protected Loan.

What is the interest rate and


how is interest paid?

Interest rate
You can elect a fixed interest rate or annually resetting interest rate.
Interest payment frequency
Interest on your Protected Loan must be paid annually in advance (unless otherwise
agreed with Westpac). Westpac may alter the interest payment frequency upon request
at its absolute discretion. Your nominated bank account will be direct debited for the
first Interest Period on the Business Day after the Issue Date. If your Protected Loan is
for a Term greater than one year, you will be direct debited for subsequent Interest
Periods on each anniversary of the Issue Date.

What is the minimum


Protected Loan Amount?

The minimum Protected Loan Amount is $500,000. Westpac may lower the minimum
Protected Loan Amount upon request at its absolute discretion.

How does limited recourse


operate?

A Protected Loan is a limited recourse loan only at Maturity, and provided you have
complied with all your obligations under this IM and the Terms and Conditions in respect
of the Protected Loan, and there is no Default.

What are the key benefits of


a Protected Loan?

There are various potential benefits involved in entering into a Protected Loan. See
section 2.11 of this IM for an overview of the key benefits of investing in a Protected
Loan.

What are the key risks of


a Protected Loan?

There are various potential risks involved in entering into a Protected Loan. See section
2.11 of this IM for an overview of the key risks of investing in a Protected Loan.

How does the Mortgage


operate?

Your obligation to repay the Protected Loan Amount and your other obligations under
the Protected Loan will be secured by a Mortgage granted to Westpac over the
Securities as well as any other Secured Property.

What happens at Maturity?

See section 2.12 of this IM for a table setting out the potential outcomes at Maturity for
a Protected Loan.

What are the costs and fees?

`` interest on the Protected Loan;


`` any Loan Establishment Fee as set out in your Confirmation;
`` brokerage of up to 1.1% inclusive of GST (but generally 0.22% inclusive of GST) for
the purchase and sale of Securities; and
`` any other fees as agreed between you and Westpac.

Investment Overview (Continued)


Funding the exercise of Executive Options overview

How can a Protected Loan be


used to fund the exercise of
Executive Options?

`` Westpac will lend you money through a Protected Loan to fund the exercise of
Executive Options.
`` The Company will transfer the relevant Securities to your Westpac HIN where they
will be held as security for your Protected Loan, subject to a Mortgage in favour of
Westpac.
`` You pay upfront interest on the Protected Loan, any Loan Establishment Fee and
any other fees agreed between you and Westpac (if any).

What are the key benefits?

`` Allows you to exercise your Executive Options without you providing the full exercise
price upfront.
`` The other key benefits will be the same as for a Protected Loan, as discussed in
section 2.11 of this IM.

What are the key risks?

`` If the Company fails to transfer the relevant Securities to your Westpac HIN, you will
be liable for the entire Protected Loan Amount, regardless of whether you have
ownership of the relevant Securities.
`` The other key risks will be the same as for a Protected Loan, as discussed in
section 2.11 of this IM.

What happens at Maturity?

Your choices at maturity will be the same as for a Protected Loan, as discussed in
section 2.12 of this IM.

What are the other features of


the Protected Loan?

See the Protected Loan overview above for other features of using a Protected Loan.

1800 990 107

TEF features
This section provides a brief description of the
key features of TEF. You should read this IM in full,
including the Terms and Conditions, and seek your
own independent legal, taxation and financial advice
before making any decision to invest through TEF.

The Guarantor will be personally liable for these


amounts. Where there is more than one Guarantor,
the Guarantors will be jointly and severally liable
for any amount owing under the Guarantee and
Indemnity.

What is TEF?

We will send details of the Guarantee and Indemnity


to the Guarantor separately. Guarantors will need
to have regard to the terms of the Guarantee and
Indemnity (which will be provided to them following
the receipt of a trustee or company application).

TEF is the BT Tailored Equities Facility which allows


wholesale clients to:
`` purchase and/or sell Options;
`` borrow money with a Protected Loan to purchase
Securities or borrow against Securities you
already own; or
`` fund the exercise of Executive Options with a
Protected Loan.

How do I apply to transact


through TEF?
You can apply to transact through TEF by completing
the Application Form attached to this IM. You must
be a wholesale client (as that term is defined in the
Corporations Act) to apply to establish a TEF.
If your application is approved, a TEF in your
name will be established. Once established, you
can contact Westpac and request to enter into a
Transaction.
TEF Transactions can be tailored to your investment
needs. Westpac may prepare a Deal Sheet based
on your request that sets out the details of your
proposed Transaction. If you agree to the terms set
out in the Deal Sheet, Westpac may then execute a
Transaction with you. You should note that Westpac
cannot guarantee that the indicative terms set out in
a Deal Sheet will be achieved.
Alternatively, you may contact the TEF Investor
Relations team on 1800 990 107 and agree upon
the terms of a Transaction with Westpac over the
phone.
The final terms of the Transaction will be set out in a
Confirmation that will be sent to you.

Depending on the types of Transactions you wish


to enter into, we may require you to establish a
Westpac HIN (in the case of a Sold Call Option,
a Collar or a Protected Loan) or open a Westpac
Account (in the case of a Sold Put Option).
If you are required to establish a Westpac HIN, you
will need to enter into a sponsorship agreement with
the Sponsor.
If you are required to establish a Westpac Account,
you will need to enter into separate account opening
documentation with us.
Westpac may pay distributors, brokers, financial
advisers or other intermediaries (including
employees or related bodies corporate of Westpac)
commission of up to 2.2% (inclusive of GST) of the
initial value of a Transaction and on an ongoing
basis up to 0.55% per annum (inclusive of GST) of
the value of a Transaction subject to applicable law.
These amounts will be paid by Westpac out of its
own funds and will not represent an additional cost
to you.
Please also note that although Securities will
generally be held in your Westpac HIN, we may from
time to time require the Custodian to hold, on your
behalf, any Secured Property in connection with any
Transaction (including in the case of a Corporate
Action).
You can contact us to enquire about transacting
through TEF by calling us on 1800 990 107, or
through your adviser.

If you are a trustee applicant (whether a corporate


trustee or an individual trustee) or a company
applicant, we may require a Guarantee and
Indemnity from a Guarantor. Under the Guarantee
and Indemnity, we will seek to recover from the
Guarantor any amounts that you owe us in relation
to a Transaction that exceed the amount recovered
under the Mortgage. The Guarantor will also
unconditionally and irrevocably indemnify us against
liability, loss or costs we suffer or incur if you are
unable to meet your obligations to us.

1. Options
1.1

What is an Option?

Options available through TEF allow you to enter


into a contract under which you have the right, but
not the obligation, to acquire (in the case of a Call
Option) or dispose of (in the case of a Put Option)
a Parcel of Securities at a predetermined price
(known as the Strike Price, or in the case of a Collar,
the Floor Price or the Cap Price) on or before a
predetermined date (Expiry Date). You can also sell
Options, in which case an equivalent right is granted
to Westpac. To acquire this right, the purchaser
of an Option must generally pay an amount to the
seller of the Option called the Premium.
Options offered through TEF are over-the-counter
or OTC which means that they represent a contract
between you and Westpac, and are not traded on
any exchange. Therefore, when you enter into an
Option with Westpac, you are exposed to the credit
risk of Westpac.
Options can be Put Options, Call Options or Collars.
A Call Option gives the purchaser the right, but
not the obligation, to buy a Parcel of Securities
at a predetermined Strike Price on or before a
predetermined Expiry Date. If the purchaser of the
Call Option exercises their right to buy, the Option
seller must sell the Parcel of Securities to the Call
Option purchaser at the Strike Price.
A Put Option gives the purchaser the right, but
not the obligation, to sell a Parcel of Securities
at a predetermined Strike Price on or before a
predetermined Expiry Date. If the purchaser of the
Put Option exercises their right to sell, the Option
seller must buy the Parcel of Securities from the Put
Option purchaser at the Strike Price.
A Collar operates economically in a similar way to a
combination of a Put Option and a Call Option, as if
you had purchased a Put Option with a nominated
Strike Price (called the Floor Price) at the same time
as you had sold a Call Option to Westpac with a
higher Strike Price (called the Cap Price).
Options (other than Collars) can be American
Options or Europeans Options, as discussed in
section 1.3 below. Collars can generally only be
European Options.
Options can be subject to Physical Settlement or
Cash Settlement, as discussed in section 1.4 below.

1.2 Sellers and purchasers


Every Option (other than a Collar) has both a seller
and a purchaser.
A purchaser of an Option buys the right to acquire or
dispose of a parcel of Securities at a predetermined
price on or before a predetermined Expiry Date. The
buyer of an Option is also known as the taker as

they have the option to take up the right to purchase


or sell the Securities covered by the Option, or not.
If you buy an Option, this IM will refer to the Option
as a Bought Call Option, a Bought Put Option or a
Collar.
A seller of an Option sells the right to acquire or
dispose of a Parcel of Securities at a predetermined
price on or before a predetermined Expiry Date.
The Seller of an Option is also known as the writer
because the seller underwrites the obligation to
deliver or accept the Securities covered by the
Option. If you sell an Option, this IM will refer to the
Option as a Sold Call Option or a Sold Put Option.

1.3 American and European


Options
Both American and European Options will be
available through TEF.
European Options can only be exercised on the
Expiry Date, before the Expiry Time. Collars will
generally be required to be European Options.
American Options can be exercised up until the
Expiry Time on the Expiry Date.
You may exercise an Option by giving an Exercise
Notice to Westpac within the relevant timeframe
specified above. Both American Options and
European Options which are In-The-Money at the
Expiry Time will be automatically exercised.

1.4 Settlement method


You can choose to settle your Option either by:
`` Physical Settlement the physical delivery or
receipt of the Securities; or
`` Cash Settlement the payment or receipt of a
cash amount.
At the time of entry into an Option, you will be
required to elect whether Physical Settlement or
Cash Settlement will apply to your Option. Your
election will be set out in the Confirmation for the
Option. If you do not make an election, the default
settlement method will be Cash Settlement (other
than in the case of a Loan Put Option, where
Physical Settlement must apply).
You may change the election set out in your
Confirmation by contacting the TEF Investor
Relations team on 1800 990 107 at least 3 Business
Days prior to the Expiry Date.

1.5 Option Transaction timing


If Westpac agrees to enter into an Option with you,
Westpac will enter into the Option with you on the
Issue Date. If you have bought an Option and are
required to pay a Premium, your nominated bank
account will be direct debited for the Premium

1800 990 107

on the Business Day after the Issue Date. If you


have sold an Option or entered into a Collar, and
are to receive a Premium, your nominated bank
account will be direct credited the Premium on the
Business Day after the Issue Date (provided you
have complied with your obligation to lodge Security
Collateral or Cash Collateral in a Westpac HIN or
Westpac Account, as applicable).

You may be able to terminate Options prior to their


Expiry Date and enter into new Options at the same
time, with Westpacs consent. For example, if you
wish to change the Strike Price of a Bought Call
Option during the term, you could terminate the
Bought Call Option early, and on the same day,
enter into a new Bought Call Option with the same
Expiry Date but with a different Strike Price.

1.6 Corporate Actions

1.9 Fees and charges

Westpac has broad rights should a Corporate


Action occur, as set out in clause 23 of the Terms
and Conditions. You should read the Terms and
Conditions carefully before entering into an Option
with Westpac.

This Section describes the fees and charges


involved with investing in Options through TEF.

1.7 Dividends & franking credits


For Sold Call Options and Collars, you may still
be entitled to receive any Dividends paid on the
Security Collateral and you may be entitled to receive
the benefit of any franking credits attached to the
Dividend (subject to being a qualified person see
section 4). Where you own the Securities the subject
of a Bought Put Option, you may be entitled to
receive the benefit of any franking credits attached to
Dividends paid on the Securities (subject to being a
qualified person see section 4).

1.8 Early termination


If you wish to terminate an Option which you have
entered into prior to its Expiry Date, you may contact
the TEF Investor Relations team on 1800 990 107
to request an Early Termination Notice. If Westpac
agrees to allow you to terminate an Option, you must
pay to Westpac the amounts indicated in the final
Early Termination Notice (including any Break Costs).

Before investing through TEF, you should make sure


you understand the fees and charges associated
with your investment.
At the date of this IM, the fees and charges that may
be payable are:
`` Premium for a Bought Call Option, a Bought Put
Option and a Collar (if applicable)
`` Brokerage of up to 1.1% inclusive of GST (but
generally 0.22% inclusive of GST) on the value of
the Securities
`` Break Costs if you terminate an Option early;
`` any other fees and charges the Broker is entitled
to require you to pay in accordance with their
terms and conditions, and
`` any other fees, duties, charges or expenses
associated with anything to be done through TEF
or as otherwise agreed with you from time to time.
Fees and charges may be changed by Westpac
at its discretion at any time. If GST is payable in
respect of a fee or charge, it is added to that fee or
charge at the current rate.

held as collateral (the Security Collateral).

`` You will be required to provide Security


Collateral in relation to the Call Option. You
will not be able to sell the Security Collateral
while the Call Option remains open.
`` If the value of the underlying securities

you enter into and will not be able to use this
Cash Collateral for other purposes during the

you paid.
`` You will be required to provide Security
Collateral in relation to a Collar. You will not be
able to sell the Security Collateral while you
hold an open Collar.

1.12 Examples of using Options
The examples below are indicative only, ignore the impact of taxation and use rates and figures that we have
selected to demonstrate how the product works. They are not intended to reflect the actual performance of
any Option. All figures are in Australian dollars.
(a) Using a Bought Call Option to participate in a potential Security price increase while limiting your
potential downside loss
If you believe a Security price will increase in value, you can use a Bought Call Option to participate in any
Security price increase above the Strike Price without buying the underlying Securities. A Bought Call Option
requires less initial capital outlay relative to purchasing the Security and will limit your potential loss to the
value of the Premium.
Assume the following for this example:
`` Security: BHP
`` Term: 1 year
`` Security price at Issue Date: $35
`` Strike Price: $35
`` Premium per Security paid by you: $3
`` Number of underlying Securities: 28,571

You can use a Bought Put Option to hedge against a decrease in the price of Securities you already own or
to make a profit from a falling Security price. The example below reflects a scenario where you use a Bought
Put Option to benefit from a decrease in the price of the Securities but do not own the underlying Securities.
It does not illustrate what would happen if you already owned the Securities and used a Bought Put Option to
protect against price decreases in the Securities.

(c) Using a Sold Call Option to receive a Premium upfront


If you already own Securities, you can use Sold Call Options to receive additional income in the form of
Premium, paid to you upfront. The Premium is the maximum profit you can make from a Sold Call Option,
but you will still receive any dividends and may receive the benefit of any associated franking credits on the
Securities that may be paid out during the term (subject to being a qualified person see section 4).
Assume the following for this example:
`` Security: BHP
`` Term: 1 year
`` Security price at Issue Date: $35
`` Security Collateral: 28,571 BHP shares
`` Value of Security Collateral at Issue Date: $999,985
`` Strike Price: $35
`` Premium per Security received by you: $3*
`` Premium received upfront: $85,713
`` Assumed dividends per share: $1.00 per annum
*Note: The Premium for a Sold Call Option will not necessarily be equal to the Premium for a Bought Call
Option with the same Strike Price. These examples are for illustrative purposes only.

(d) Using a Sold Put Option to receive Premium upfront


If you believe a Security price will not fall below a certain price, you can use a Sold Put Option to receive
a Premium for the Option, paid to you upfront. To enter into a Sold Put Option, you must provide Cash
Collateral equal to the Notional Value of the Sold Put Option. The Premium you receive is the maximum profit
you can make from using a Sold Put Option.
Assume the following for this example:
`` Security: BHP
`` Term: 1 year
`` Security price at Issue Date: $35
`` Strike Price: $35
`` Premium per Security received by you: $3*
`` Cash Collateral: $999,985
`` Number of underlying Securities: 28,571
`` Premium received upfront: $85,713
*Note: The Premium for a Sold Put Option will not necessarily be equal to the Premium for a Bought Put
Option with the same Strike Price. These examples are for illustrative purposes only.

(e) U
 sing a Collar to protect against price decreases in Securities you already own while giving up
potential gains from an increase in the price of Securities
You can use a Collar to hedge against a decrease in the price of Securities you already own. Using this type
of hedging is generally cheaper than buying a Bought Put Option with a Strike Price the same as the Floor
Price for the Collar because under a Collar you give up some potential gains if the price of the Securities is
above the Cap Price at Expiry.
Assume the following for this example:
`` Security: BHP
`` Term: 1 year
`` Security price at Issue Date: $35
`` Floor Price: $25
`` Cap Price: $45
`` Premium per Security paid by you: $1

2. Protected Loan
2.1 How does a Protected Loan
work?
You can apply for a Protected Loan through TEF.
If your request for a Protected Loan is approved,
we will advance a loan for a parcel of Securities (a
Parcel) that you would either like to buy (or borrow
against, if you already own the relevant Parcel of
Securities). Securities can only form part of the
same Parcel if they are identical to each other. The
Securities will be held in a Westpac HIN in your
name, but subject to the Mortgage, during the Term
of the Protected Loan.
If you borrow using a Protected Loan, you must
also purchase a Loan Put Option with a Notional
Value equal to at least the Protected Loan Amount.
For example, if you borrow $500,016 to purchase
15,152 Woolworths (WOW) shares at $33 per
WOW share, then you must also purchase a Loan
Put Option over 15,152 WOW shares with a Strike
Price of at least $33. You will not pay any separate
Premium in respect of the Loan Put Option. Instead,
the Premium will form part of the interest on the
Protected Loan.
We will take a Mortgage over each Parcel as
security for the Protected Loan. You will be required
to pay the interest for the first Interest Period under
the Protected Loan, any Loan Establishment Fee,
Brokerage and any other fees and charges by direct
debit on the Business Day after the Issue Date for
the Protected Loan.
You can elect to borrow between 50100%
(inclusive) of the value of the Parcel of Securities at
the Issue Date. If you borrow to purchase Securities
and you elect to borrow less than 100% of the price
of the Parcel of Securities, you will be required to
make a capital contribution equal to the difference
between the price of the Parcel of Securities upon
investment and the Protected Loan Amount. For
example, if you want to purchase $1,000,000 worth
of Rio Tinto (RIO) shares but only wish to borrow
$800,000, then you must contribute $200,000 of
your own capital to fund the $1,000,000 purchase
price.
Each Parcel of Securities is subject to a separate
Protected Loan, and each Protected Loan is
subject to the Terms and Conditions. However,
if you request two or more Protected Loans over
different Parcels of Securities with the same Issue
Date, Maturity Date and Interest Periods, Westpac
may treat the Protected Loans as one loan and
provide a consolidated Deal Sheet and Confirmation
containing a single interest rate for all the Protected
Loans making up the consolidated loan.

2.2 Using a Protected Loan


to borrow money against
Securities you already own
(Securityholder Application).
You may use a Protected Loan to release funds by
borrowing against a Parcel of Securities that you
already own. You may borrow (wholly or predominantly
for business or investment purposes (other than
investments in residential property), and not for
personal, domestic or household purposes) up to
100% of the value of the Securities you already own,
using those Securities as security for repayment of the
Protected Loan. You will be required to pay interest on
the Protected Loan Amount borrowed plus any Loan
Establishment Fee or other fees and charges. We will
arrange payment of the Protected Loan Amount as
directed by you. If the Protected Loan is granted:
`` You will receive a cash amount;
`` The Securities will be held in your Westpac HIN
and subject to a Mortgage to Westpac; and
`` You must purchase a Loan Put Option with a
Notional Value equal to at least the Protected
Loan Amount.
For example, assume you own 20,000 WOW shares
valued at $30 on the Issue Date. You can apply for
a one year Protected Loan with a Protected Amount
of $600,000 (i.e. 20,000 x $30). The Securities are
mortgaged to Westpac and you purchase a Loan
Put Option with a Strike Price of $30 per Security.
If the interest on the Protected Loan is $70,000 and
there are no other fees then Westpac will provide
you with a net cash amount of $530,000 which
must be used wholly or predominantly for business
or investment purposes (other than investment in
residential property), and not for personal, domestic
or household purposes.

2.3 Protected Loan Transaction


timing
If Westpac agrees to enter into a Protected Loan
with you, Westpac will enter into a Protected Loan
with you on the Issue Date. You will be direct
debited the interest for the first Interest Period,
any Loan Establishment Fee, Brokerage and any
other fees and charges on the Business Day after
the Issue Date. If your Protected Loan is for a Term
greater than one year, you will be direct debited the
interest for the subsequent Interest Periods on each
anniversary of the Issue Date.

2.4 Minimum Protected Loan


Amount
The minimum Protected Loan Amount through
TEF is $500,000. Westpac may alter the minimum
Protected Loan Amount at its discretion.

17

2. Protected Loan (Continued)


2.5 Mortgage
Your obligation to repay the Protected Loan Amount
will be secured by a Mortgage granted to Westpac
over the Secured Property (including the Securities).
The Securities will be held in a Westpac HIN.

2.6 Corporate Actions


Westpac has certain rights should a Corporate
Action occur, as set out in clause 23 of the Terms
and Conditions. You should read the Terms and
Conditions carefully before entering into a Protected
Loan with Westpac.

2.7 Dividends & franking credits


You will be entitled to receive any dividends paid on
the underlying Securities making up the Parcel for
a Protected Loan. You may be entitled to receive
the benefit of any franking credits attached to the
dividend (subject to being a qualified person see
section 4).

2.8 Term
You may elect a Term of up to 5 years.

2.9 Early termination


If you wish to terminate a Protected Loan which
you have entered into prior to its Maturity Date,
you may contact the TEF Investor Relations team
on 1800 990 107 to request an Early Termination
Notice. If Westpac agrees to allow you to terminate
a Protected Loan prior to its Maturity Date, you must
pay to Westpac the amounts indicated in the final
Early Termination Notice (including any Break Costs).
You should also note that a Protected Loan is a
limited recourse loan only at Maturity (and provided
you have complied with all your obligations under
these Terms and Conditions in respect of the

Protected Loan and there is no Default). Westpac


can enforce payment obligations (including the
Protected Loan Amount, outstanding interest on the
Protected Loan and any Break Costs) against you
to recover the relevant amounts in full, such that
Westpacs recourse is not limited to the Secured
Property, if the Protected Loan is terminated prior
to Maturity by you or by us, or we appoint an early
Maturity Date or Expiry Date. You should read the
Terms and Conditions carefully before entering into
a Protected Loan with Westpac.

2.10 Fees and charges


This section provides a description of the fees and
charges involved with investing in a Protected Loan
through TEF.
Before investing through TEF, you should make sure
you understand the fees and charges associated
with your investment.
At the date of this IM, the fees and charges that may
be payable are:
`` interest on the Protected Loan;
`` any Loan Establishment Fee as set out in your
Confirmation;
`` Brokerage of up to 1.1% inclusive of GST (but
generally 0.22% inclusive of GST) on the value of
any Securities purchased;
`` Break Costs if you repay your Protected Loan
early;
`` any other fees and charges the Broker is entitled
to require you to pay in accordance with the
Brokers terms and conditions; and
`` any other fees, duties, charges or expenses
associated with anything to be done through TEF
or as otherwise agreed with you from time to time.
Fees and charges may be changed by Westpac
at its discretion at any time. If GST is payable in
respect of a fee or charge, it is added to that fee or
charge at the current rate.

2.11 Key benefits and risks of investing with a Protected Loan

Description

Key benefits

Key risks

(Protected Loan

`` Use of leverage has the potential to magnify


gains from an increase in the price of the
Securities.
`` Use of leverage provides exposure to the
economic performance of Securities with a
lower initial outlay than purchasing the
Securities directly with your own funds.
`` You will obtain the benefits of Securities
ownership including the potential to receive
dividends and, subject to being a qualified
person (see section 4), franking credits.

`` Leverage has the potential to magnify losses


as well as gains. Although your obligation to
repay the Protected Loan Amount is
protected at the Maturity Date by the Loan
Put Option, you may still lose the full value of
any interest payments without any gain in the
value of the Securities, resulting in a net loss
as a result of the Transaction as a whole.

Westpacs recourse is not limited to the
Secured Property,

you have not complied with all your obligations
under the IM and the Terms and Conditions in
respect of the Protected Loan; or
there is a Default.
`` If you choose an annually resetting rate, you
may be required to pay higher interest costs
for Interest Periods after the first Interest
Period if interest rates increase.
`` If you choose a fixed rate you will not benefit
from any decrease in the interest rate for your
Protected Loan if market interest rates decline
after you have paid the interest for the first
Interest Period.
`` If your Protected Loan terminates prior to
Maturity by you or by us, or we appoint an
early Maturity Date or Expiry Date, you will be
liable to repay the Protected Loan Amount
and may also be required to pay Break Costs,
which may be significant.
`` Any capital contribution you make to the
purchase of Securities (for example, where
you borrow less than 100% of the purchase
price of Securities under a Protected Loan) is
not protected.
`` Any capital appreciation of the Parcel of
Securities may not be sufficient to offset your
obligations to pay interest in respect of a
Protected Loan.

3. Funding Executive Options using a Protected Loan


You may, subject to Westpacs approval, use a
Protected Loan to fund the exercise of Executive
Options that have been issued to you.

4_that you have all permissions required by the


Company employee trading policy to exercise the
Executive Options

If a Protected Loan is approved in such


circumstances, an amount sufficient to fund the
exercise of the Executive Options will be sent directly
to the Company issuing the Executive Options. The
Company will then transfer the relevant Securities to
your Westpac HIN. The money advanced to fund the
exercise of Executive Options forms part (if not all) of
the Protected Loan Amount.

5_that the Companys employee trading policy


permits the use of the Protected Loan described
in this IM

When you use a Protected Loan to fund the exercise


of Executive Options, you may borrow between
50-100% (inclusive) of the value of the Securities.
If the Protected Loan Amount you borrow is more
than the amount required to fund the exercise of
the Executive Options, then you will receive the
difference as a cash amount to be used wholly or
predominantly for business or investment purposes
(other than investment in residential property), and
not for personal, domestic or household purposes.

8_the payment instructions for Executive Option


exercise price payment.
This confirmation will be sought in writing as a
response to a standard questionnaire that Westpac
will send to the Company.

For example if the amount required to exercise


Executive Options is $90,000 (strike price of $90
x 1,000 Executive Options) and the value of the
Securities is $100,000 (Security Price of $100 x
1,000), then you can borrow between $50,000$100,000. If you borrowed $100,000 (ie the full
value of the Securities), then you would receive
$10,000 cash (i.e. $100,000 less $90,000 to fund
the exercise of the Executive Options) to be used
wholly or predominantly for Business or Investment
Purposes.
The Protected Loan used for funding Executive
Options has the same features, terms and
conditions as a Protected Loan used to purchase
Securities or borrow against Securities. Those
features, terms and conditions are described in
section 2 of this IM.
If the Company fails to transfer the relevant
Securities to your Westpac HIN within a reasonable
time determined at the sole discretion of Westpac,
you will be in Default under the Terms and
Conditions.
To use a Protected Loan to fund the exercise
of Executive Options, you must arrange for the
Company issuing the Executive Options to confirm
in writing to Westpac:
1_that you own the specified number of Executive
Options
2_that the Executive Options are fully vested and
presently exercisable by you
3_that the Executive Options and underlying
Securities following the Executive Options
exercise are not subject to any security interest or
other encumbrances

6_that there is no Company imposed trading


blackout which would restrict you from exercising
the Executive Options
7_the timetable for exercise of the Executive
Options and share allotment and

In addition, you will need to provide Westpac with:


`` the original security holders certificate (or similar
document) in relation to the Executive Options
which shows you as the registered holder of the
Executive Options
`` an executed exercise notice in relation to the
Executive Options and
`` an irrevocable direction instructing the Company
to accept receipt of the Executive Option strike
price from Westpac and subsequently deliver the
Securities to your Westpac HIN.
To enquire about using a Protected Loan to fund the
exercise of Executive Options, please call the TEF
Investor Relations team on 1800 990 107.

3.1 An example of funding


Executive Options with a
Protected Loan
Assume the following:
`` investor is employed by Company XYZ
`` investor has 10,000 Company XYZ Executive
Options over one Company share each with a
strike price of $70
`` Company XYZ shares are trading at $100.

Scenario 1
Through TEF, the investor borrows $700,000 (10,000
x $70) to fund the exercise of Executive Options.
Upon receipt of the required documentation,
Westpac transfers $700,000 to Company XYZ.
Company XYZ issues 10,000 XYZ shares into the
investors Westpac HIN, where they are held as
security for the Protected Loan. Interest on the
Protected Loan is paid annually in advance.

Scenario 2
Through TEF, the investor borrows $1,000,000
(10,000 x $100) to fund the exercise of

Company XYZ. Company XYZ issues 10,000 XYZ
shares into the investors Westpac HIN, where they

Dear Directors
BT Tailored Equities Facility ("TEF")
Tax summary
You have asked for a summary of the key Australian income tax, stamp duty and goods and
services tax ("GST") implications for an Investor who enters into transactions under the terms of
the TEF. Our comments are based on review of an Information Memorandum for the TEF to be
dated 8 April 2013.
Unless indicated otherwise, legislative references are to provisions of the Income Tax Assessment
Act 1997 and Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (together, the "Tax Act") and capitalised terms
are references to defined terms in the Information Memorandum.
1.

SCOPE

The discussion contained in this tax summary is of a general nature only and does not take into
account each Investor's specific circumstances. The information provided in this letter does not
take into account the objectives or circumstances of individual investors and we recommend that
Investors seek their own independent advice on the taxation implications of investing through the
TEF. For investors that are complying superannuation entities, this tax summary does not address
whether an Option or Protected Loan entered into under the TEF complies with the Superannuation
Industry (Supervision) Act 1993.
This summary has been prepared by Ashurst Australia based on the laws in force and
administrative practice as at 9am (Sydney time) on the date of this letter, and addresses only the
position of investors who are Australian residents who enter into transactions other than in the
course of carrying on a business, and who acquire and hold their Securities or Options on capital
account ("Investors"). The comments in this summary are not binding on the Australian Taxation
Office ("ATO") or a state or territory revenue office ("OSR") and it is not assurance that the ATO
or an OSR will agree with the comments in this summary or that any contrary view of the ATO or
an OSR would not ultimately be upheld by a Court. It should be noted that tax laws (and their
interpretation by the Courts) and administrative practices change over time and this may impact
upon the comments made in this summary.
This tax summary is provided by Ashurst Australia solely for the benefit of Westpac Banking
Corporation ("Westpac") and may not be relied on by any other person. The representatives of

ASSUMPTIONS

This summary of taxation implications assumes:


(a)

an Investor is an Australian resident for income tax purposes and will not enter into
any transaction connected with the TEF in carrying on business outside Australia at
or through a permanent establishment of the Investor outside Australia;

(b)

an Investor acquires and holds Securities or Options on capital account or sells


Options to hedge Securities that are held on capital account, for example:
(i)

for a Security - an Investor acquires the Security with the intention of


holding it as a long term investment to derive assessable distribution
income;

(ii)

for a Bought Put Option or Collar the Investor acquires the Put Option or
Collar with the intention of protecting downside risk in relation to a Security
held on capital account;

(iii)

for a Bought Call Option the Investor acquires the Call Option with the
intention of exercising it to acquire the relevant Security if the Call Option is
In-the-Money on its Exercise Date and hold the Security on capital account.

An Investor who carries on a business of dealing in shares or other securities, or


who has a purpose of acquiring Securities or entering into an Option for disposal or
settlement at a profit, would generally not be regarded as holding their Securities or
Options on capital account.

(c)

Investors are not acquiring Securities, entering into a Protected Loan or buying and
selling Options for speculative, gambling or recreational purposes;

(d)

Securities in respect of a Protected Loan or Option (including Securities acquired


using a Protected Loan) are:
(i)

ordinary shares in companies limited by shares or units in a "widely held"1


Australian unit trusts that is a registered managed investment scheme or
stapled securities of such types; and

(ii)

at all times quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX);

(e)

Westpac will execute any agreements with Investors in New South Wales;

(f)

as a result of entry into the agreements, no Investor will acquire, either individually
or together with 'associated ' or 'related persons' (as defined in the State and
Territory stamp duties legislations), a 90% or greater interest in the relevant
company or unit trust of the type referred to in paragraphs (d)(i) and (d)(ii) above;

For the purposes of this tax summary, a widely held Australian unit trust is a fixed trust with an Australian resident
trustee or a fixed trust which is centrally managed and controlled in Australia with at least 300 beneficiaries and
75% or more of the fixed entitlements to the income and capital of the trust are not held, directly or indirectly, by
20 or fewer unrelated individuals.

(g)

for Securities that are shares in a foreign company, an Investor is not an


"attributable taxpayer" in relation to that company for the purposes of the
controlled foreign company rules in the Tax Act; and

(h)

all transactions Investors enter into with Westpac will be at prevailing market prices
and otherwise on arm's length terms.

If the assumptions above do not apply to an Investor, the comments in this letter may not be
applicable to the Investor and the Investor should obtain their own advice having regard to their
particular circumstances.

OPTIONS

Options will be CGT assets. The CGT consequences of buying a Put Option, Collar or Call Option or
selling a Put Option or Call Option are summarised below.
Where an Investor has acquired a Loan Put Option acquired in conjunction with a Protected Loan,
the cost of the Loan Put Option will be built into the interest on the Protected Loan and the CGT
consequences of the Loan Put Option are affected by Division 247 of the Tax Act (see section
4.1(b) below).
3.1

Bought Put Option

Grant of Bought Put Option


The Premium paid for the Put Option plus any incidental costs of acquiring the Put Option should be
included in the CGT cost base and reduced cost base of the Put Option.
Exercise of Bought Put Option Physical Settlement
Any capital gain or capital loss made on exercise of the Put Option is disregarded.
The Premium is included in the CGT cost base and reduced cost base of the Securities disposed of
on exercise. The disposal of the Securities will result in a capital gain if the Strike Price exceeds
their CGT cost base or a capital loss if the Strike Price is less than their CGT reduced cost base.
Some investors may be eligible to apply the CGT discount (see below).
Exercise of Bought Put Option Cash Settlement
If the Cash Settlement Amount exceeds the CGT cost base of the Put Option, the Investor will
make a capital gain. If the Cash Settlement Amount is less than the CGT reduced cost base of the
Put Option, the Investor will make a capital loss.
Some investors may be eligible to apply the CGT discount (see below).
Lapse of Bought Put Option
If the Put Option lapses unexercised, the Investor will make a capital loss equal to CGT reduced
cost base of the Put Option.
3.2

Collar

Grant of Collar
Any Premium paid for the Collar plus any incidental costs of acquiring the Collar should be included
in the CGT cost base and reduced cost base of the Collar.
If an amount is paid to an Investor for buying a Collar, the Investor should obtain their own advice
on the tax treatment of this amount.

PROTECTED LOAN

4.1

Deductibility of interest payable under the Protected Loan


(a)

General requirements

Generally, an investor who borrows money to acquire an asset may be able to claim a deduction
for borrowing costs (such as interest) associated with that asset if the investor is able to show that
they incurred the costs in deriving (or expecting to derive) assessable income (other than capital
gains) and the costs are not of a capital nature.
Assessable income may include assessable dividends or trust distributions from Securities acquired
using the Protected Loan. The ATO may seek to deny a claim for a deduction in respect of interest
paid under the Protected Loan if, for example, an Investor intends and expects to dispose of their
Securities before assessable income (other than capital gains) has been derived in respect of the
Securities in excess of the interest and other deductible costs which are expected to be incurred.
Interest paid under the Protected Loan will not be deductible merely because the Protected Loan is
secured by existing Securities owned by an Investor. It is only the purpose for which the proceeds
of the Protected Loan are used that is relevant in determining whether the interest is deductible.
Investors should obtain their own tax advice in relation to the deductibility of interest (and other
borrowing costs) associated with the Protected Loan. Without limiting the matters which should be
considered by Investors, Investors should consider the capital protected borrowing rules (see
below) and the thin capitalisation rules. In particular, if an Investor uses the Protected Loan for
purposes other than to acquire Securities (for example, if an investor acquires an Option (other
than the Loan Put Option acquired in conjunction with a Protected Loan) and uses the Protected
Loan to fund the Premium for the Option), the Investor should obtain their own advice in relation to
whether interest payable under the Protected Loan will be deductible having regard to the specific
purpose of the Protected Loan, as the comments above may not be applicable to such an Investor.
(b)

Capital protected borrowing provisions

As Investors who borrow using a Protected Loan are protected against a fall in the aggregate
market value of the Investor's Securities that are mortgaged to Westpac as security for the
Protected Loan below the Protected Loan Amount, the capital protected borrowing provisions in
Division 247 of the Tax Act should apply and may limit the extent to which interest under the
Protected Loan is deductible.
Broadly, where Division 247 of the Tax Act applies to a Protected Loan, a portion of the interest
paid under the Protected Loan may be treated as if it were incurred for a put option granted by the
Lender ("Notional Put Option"). In such a case, the tax treatment of that portion of the interest
will generally be the same as for the cost of any explicit Put Option acquired by the Investor. For
Investors who would hold an explicit Put Option on capital account (eg to hedge the risk of loss on
Securities held on capital account), any portion of the interest treated as being incurred for a
Notional Put Option under Division 247 of the Tax Act is likely to form part of the CGT cost base
and reduced cost base of the Notional Put Option. The Notional Put Option will be taken to be an
asset of the Investor in addition to the actual Loan Put Option that must be acquired with the
Protected Loan.
The amount treated as incurred for the Notional Put Option is broadly calculated as the excess (if
any) of the interest payable under the Protected Loan and the interest that would be payable if the

224330570.01

28

1800 990 107

Westpac Banking Corporation

26 March 2013

Page 7

interest rate determined under Division 247 of the Tax Act (the "Adjusted Protected Loan
Rate") applied to the Protected Loan.
The Adjusted Protected Loan Rate is the Reserve Bank of Australia's Indicator Lending Rate for
Standard Variable Housing Loans at that time plus 100 basis points (ie 7.45% per annum as at
February 2013). On the basis that the interest rate will be fixed for the term of the Protected Loan
or, if an Investor elects for an annually resetting interest rate, the interest rate will be fixed for at
least one year and interest must be paid annually in advance, Investors should use the Adjusted
Protected Loan Rate which applies when they incur a payment for interest paid in advance.
If the Loan Put Option associated with a Protected Loan is exercised or the limited recourse feature
of the Protected Loan is invoked (as a result of the market value of a Security falling below the
Protected Loan Amount), the Notional Put Option is taken to be exercised for tax purposes. In
addition, to the extent that Westpac acquires the relevant Securities, those Securities are taken to
have been disposed of by the Investor as a result of the Notional Put Option being exercised.
If the Loan Put Option associated with a Protected Loan is not exercised or the limited recourse
feature of the Protected Loan is not invoked because the market value of a Security is above the
Protected Loan Amount, the Notional Put Option is taken to have expired (ie lapsed).
Where an Investor has multiple Parcels of Securities and Westpac has treated the Protected Loans
as one loan with a single interest rate (a "Consolidated Loan"), the Consolidated Loan should be
treated as one "arrangement" for the purposes of Division 247 of the Tax Act. This is consistent
with the approach adopted by the ATO in product rulings for products with similar features to TEF.
Accordingly, for the purpose of calculating any excess is calculated by comparing the interest
payable under the Consolidated Loan (using the single interest rate) and the interest that would be
payable under the Consolidated loan if the single interest rate was equal to the Adjusted Protected
Loan Rate. However, as capital protection is provided separately in respect of each Parcel of
Securities, the excess should be reasonably apportioned to a separate Notional Put Option over
each Parcel.
If a Protected Loan is used by an Investor to acquire a share or option acquired at a discount under
an employee share scheme, Division 247 of the Tax Act may not apply to re-characterise the
interest paid under the Protected Loan. This exclusion would not apply if the Protected Loan is
used to fund the exercise price of an Executive Option as the Protected Loan is funding the
acquisition of the shares covered by the Executive Option and not the Executive Option itself.
The tax treatment of the application of Division 247 can be complex and Investors should obtain
their own advice on the application of the Division to their circumstances.
4.2

Timing of deductions for interest


(a)

Individuals or small business entities

Where an Investor is an individual or a small business entity (ie a business with annual turnover of
less than $2 million), the Investor should be able to claim interest deductions at the time it is paid
(ie upfront) if:

the interest is in respect of an Interest Period not longer than 12 months ending on or
before 30 June of the next income year (eg, Prepaid Interest); and

the Protected Loan is used to acquire Securities or real property where the Investor has
obtained, or can reasonably be expected to obtain, dividends, trust income or rent and no
other kind of assessable income.

However, a small business entity may elect to claim the prepaid interest deduction over the
Interest Period to which the interest relates on a straight line accruals basis rather than upfront.

224330570.01

29

4. Tax (Continued)
Westpac Banking Corporation

26 March 2013

Page 8

Prepaid interest which relates to an Interest Period of over 12 months or which ends after 30 June
of the income year after the one in which the prepaid interest is paid should not be deducted
upfront, but should be deducted over that Interest Period on a straight line accruals basis.
(b)

Other entities

If an Investor is not an individual or a small business entity, the deductions for prepaid interest
should be spread on a straight line accruals basis over the Interest Period to which the interest
relates.
5.

HOLDING SECURITIES

5.1

Distributions and franking credits

Investors should include in their assessable income any dividends (including unit trust dividends
paid by unit trusts that are public trading trusts) received in respect of their Securities.
If the dividends are franked, the Investor's assessable income will generally include any franking
credits attached to the dividends (or the Investor's share of any franking credits attached to
dividends derived through a trust), provided the Investor is a "qualified person" (and, in the case of
franked dividends derived through a trust (other than a public trading trust), the trustee of the
trust is also a qualified person); see below.
Investors that are companies and which receive dividends from foreign companies may be eligible
for an exemption if they hold a substantial interest in the foreign company (refer section 23AJ of
the Tax Act).
(a)

Imputation system

If an Investor is a "qualified person" in relation to the dividend, any franking credits attached to the
dividend may be allowed as a tax offset (equal to the amount of the franking credit on the
dividend). Whether an Investor is ultimately entitled to a tax offset or franking credit depends on
their particular circumstances. In addition, as this area of the law is still subject to change, an
Investor should obtain specific independent tax advice relevant to their circumstances.
(i)

Individuals and complying superannuation funds

If the Investor is an individual or complying superannuation fund and has a tax offset in excess of
their tax liability, the Investor may be entitled to a refund of that excess tax offset.
(ii)

Companies

If the Investor is a company, the Investor should not be entitled to a refund of any excess tax
offset, but may convert excess franking credits into tax losses. A franking credit equal to the
franking credit attached to the dividends received should also arise in the company's franking
account.
(iii)

45 day holding rule "qualified person"

An Investor should be a "qualified person"2 in relation to a dividend paid on their share Securities
where the Investor has held their Securities "at risk" for 45 days or more during a relevant
qualification period ("45 day rule").

Although the provisions in the Tax Act which determine whether a taxpayer is a qualified person have been repealed,
they continue to have effect as if they were not repealed by operation of paragraphs 207-145(1)(a) and 207150(1)(a) of the Tax Act. See also ATO Taxation Determination TD 2007/11. The previous Federal Government
indicated that it still intended to introduce legislation to insert new "qualified person" rules (largely in a rewritten

224330570.01

30

1800 990 107

Westpac Banking Corporation

26 March 2013

Page 9

Ordinarily, the qualification period is a period commencing when the Investor acquired their
Securities and ending on the 45th day after the ex-date for that dividend (but excluding the days of
acquisition and disposal of the Securities). Provided an Investor is not under a related payment
obligation (broadly, an obligation to pay away the benefit of the dividend), the Investor only needs
to satisfy the 45 day rule once. Accordingly, if an Investor already held their Securities before
entering into an Option, the Investor may have already satisfied the 45 day rule.
Where an Investor transfers Securities already held by the Investor as security for the Protected
Loan, the transfer of the Securities to the nominee should not affect the determination of whether
the Investor is a qualified person.
Where an Investor is entitled to a share of the income of a unit trust which includes franked
dividends, broadly speaking, both the Investor and the trustee of the unit trust need to be qualified
persons. However, if the unit trust is a widely held3 trust, the Investor will generally only need to
have regard to their interest in the unit trust in determining whether they satisfy the 45 day rule
rather than their interest in the underlying shares held by the unit trust.
Alternatively, for Investors who are individuals and who are not under a related payment
obligation, they should be taken to be a "qualified person" where the total franking tax offsets to
which they are entitled in any given income year does not exceed $5,000.
(iv)

Related payments rule

If an Investor is under a related payment obligation in relation to any dividend, the Investor will
need to hold their interest in the Securities "at risk" for at least 45 days during the qualification
period commencing on the 45th day before the ex-date for the relevant dividend and ending on the
45th day after the ex-date for that dividend ("related payments rule").
(v)

Held "at risk"

To satisfy the 45 day rule or the related payment rule, the Securities need to have been held "at
risk" for the relevant qualification period. In determining whether their Securities are held "at
risk", any days where Investors have materially diminished risks of loss or opportunities for gain in
relation to their Securities will not be counted (but will not be taken to break the continuity of the
ownership period).
Investors will be taken to have materially diminished risks of loss or
opportunities for gain in respect of shares or an interest in shares on a particular day if their net
position in relation to the shares on that day has a delta of less than 0.3. Their net position in
relation to Securities will take into account the delta of all positions Investors hold in relation to the
Securities. This includes Options bought or sold under the TEF, including the Loan Put Options
associated with a Protected Loan, the limited recourse features of the Protected Loan, and any
other positions Investors enter into in relation to their Securities. In some circumstances,
Investors may need to also take into account positions entered into by their associates.
Provided the related payment rule does not apply to Investors, Investors should be taken to have
the same net position they had in relation to the Securities on the day their last position was
entered into. For example, the delta of a Put Option should be taken not to change from its value
on the day Investors acquire the Put Option and enters into a Protected Loan, unless and until
Investors enter into another position in relation to the Securities (e.g. selling a Call Option). Where
an Investor enters into another position, their net position in respect of the Securities will need to
be re-calculated, taking into account the delta of all positions on that day in order to determine
whether the Investor continues to hold their Securities sufficiently "at risk" for the purposes of the
45 day rule.

form, but more substantive changes may be made). The new rules are expected to have retrospective effect from 1
July 2002. Investors should monitor developments in this area.

A trust is widely held if 75% or more of the fixed entitlements to the income or capital of the trust are not held,
directly or indirectly, by 20 or fewer unrelated individuals.

Where the related payment rule applies to Investors, Investors will also be required to re-calculate
their net position on the 45th day prior to the ex-date for each dividend over which Investors have
a related payment obligation.
The nature of the Options bought or sold under the TEF is such that an Investor's net position may
fall below 0.3 after the day on which the Investor enters into an Option. Therefore, each Investor
should be aware that if they enter into other positions before the Investor satisfies the 45 day rule
or if the related payment rule applies, it will be necessary for Investors to recalculate their net
position and there is a risk that the Investor will not be a qualified person in relation to franking
credits attached to dividends paid in respect of their Securities.
(b)

Trust4 distributions (other than those attributable to dividends)

Trust distributions may include a number of components, including dividends (discussed above),
capital gains and other assessable amounts.
Where a trust distribution is attributable to a taxable capital gains derived by a unit trust in which
an Investor holds units, this may be included in the Investor's assessable income. Certain
Investors (including individuals, trusts or complying superannuation funds) may be entitled to
discount CGT treatment on part or all of their capital gains attributed to them.
Where a trust distribution includes amounts which are non-assessable (sometimes referred to as
tax deferred distributions), the receipt of such non-assessable amounts may result in a reduction of
the CGT cost base of the Investor's units in the unit trust or a capital gain.
The gain on disposal of certain assets held by a unit trust and/or assets held by the underlying
portfolios in which the unit trust invests (including foreign exchange gains) may be assessed as
income under provisions other than the CGT provisions of the Tax Act and Investors should include
their share of such assessable amounts in their assessable income.
(c)

Foreign income tax offset

Where dividends or distributions have been subject to foreign tax (eg foreign dividend withholding
tax), Investors should include the gross amount of the dividend or distribution in their assessable
income (ie without deducting the amount of any foreign tax withheld from the dividend or
distribution).
Investors should generally be entitled to a foreign income tax offset for any foreign tax paid in
respect of dividends or distributions, but subject to an overall foreign tax offset limit each year
being the greater of:

$1,000; and

very broadly, the amount of Australian income tax of the Investor that is attributable to
income subject to foreign tax or other foreign sourced income (ignoring any potential
foreign income tax offset).

5.2

Acquisition of Securities

Securities acquired using a Protected Loan, Securities provided as security for a Protected Loan and
Securities acquired as a result of a Bought Call Option or Sold Put Option being exercised are CGT
assets. The Securities acquired by Investors will generally have an initial CGT cost base and
reduced cost base equal to the amount paid for Securities (including by applying the proceeds of a
Protected Loan) and any incidental costs associated with acquiring the Securities. As referred to
above in the discussion on Options, the CGT cost base and reduced cost base of a Security

acquired as a result of exercising a Bought Call Option or Westpac exercising a Sold Put Option will
include any Premium paid for the Bought Call Option and the Strike Price paid on exercise of the
relevant Option.
5.3

Disposal of Securities (other than as a result of exercising an Option)

A CGT event should happen on disposal of the Securities. The capital proceeds in respect of the
disposal should generally be the sale price of the Securities. Investors should have a taxable
capital gain if the capital proceeds received for the disposal of the Securities are greater than their
cost base. A capital loss should arise if the capital proceeds are less than their reduced cost base.
Investors' cost base and reduced cost base in their Securities should include the amount paid to
acquire the Securities plus any incidental costs of acquisition or disposal.
Investors that are companies and which make a capital gain or capital loss on the disposal of
shares in a foreign company may have their capital gain or capital loss reduced if they hold a
substantial interest in the foreign company and if, broadly, the foreign company carries on an
active business (refer Subdivision 768-G of the Tax Act).
6.

DISCOUNT CAPITAL GAINS

6.1

Individuals, trusts and complying superannuation funds

Investors that are individuals, trusts with certain beneficiaries or complying superannuation funds
may be entitled to discount CGT treatment on the disposal of Options or Securities where the
Investor acquired the Option or Securities for CGT purposes at least 12 months prior to the
disposal. In the case of an Investor that is the trustee of a trust, discount CGT treatment will
generally only apply to the extent that the capital gain is attributed to an individual or complying
superannuation fund that is the ultimate beneficiary of the trust. Where an Investor acquires
Securities as a result of exercising a Call Option, the Securities will be taken to be acquired for CGT
purposes when the Call Option is exercised.
Circumstances where discount CGT treatment apply to capital gains made in relation to
transactions involving Options are discussed in section 3 above. Where discount CGT treatment
applies, an Investor may reduce their capital gains by 50% if they are an individual or trust, or by
33 % if they are a complying superannuation fund. Discount treatment is not available where an
indexed cost base is chosen to determine the amount of any capital gain (indexation would
generally only be relevant if an Investor acquired their Securities on or prior to 21 September
1999).
Investors should not be taken to have disposed of their Securities in circumstances where the
Securities are transferred to the Custodian by way of security. Investors should therefore retain
their original acquisition date in respect of the Securities for CGT discount purposes.
6.2

Companies

Discount CGT treatment is not available to Investors that are companies.


7.

FUNDING EXERCISE OF EXECUTIVE OPTIONS

Where Westpac provides a Protected Loan to an Investor to fund the exercise price of Executive
Options, the exercise of the Executive Options could have tax consequences for the Investor.
In this regard, we note that the operation of the tax rules for employee share schemes in Division
83A of the Tax Act, former Division 13A of Part III of the Tax Act or former section 26AAC of the
Tax Act could result in an amount being included in an Investor's assessable income at or around
the time their Executive Options are exercised.

4. Tax (Continued)
Westpac Banking Corporation

26 March 2013

Page 12

The tax rules for employee share schemes are complex, depend on the terms of the relevant
scheme, the individual circumstances of the Investor and, in some cases, any elections made by an
Investor. Investors should seek their own advice on the application of the tax rules for employee
share schemes, taking into account their own personal circumstances.
8.

FEES

Any upfront fees (such as any Loan Establishment Fee) payable in respect of the Protected Loan
may be deductible to Investors under section 25-25 of the Tax Act over the lesser of five years and
the term of the loan under the Protected Loan, provided Investors use the Protected Loan for the
purpose of producing assessable income in the income year in which a deduction is sought.
Any Break Costs payable by Investors on early termination or repayment of a loan under the
Protected Loan should be allowable as a deduction to the extent that those amounts are incurred to
reduce or eliminate their deductible interest expense.
Brokerage fees payable upon the acquisition or sale of any Securities should be included in the CGT
cost base and reduced cost base of the Securities as an incidental cost of ownership or disposal.
9.

PROPOSED FOREIGN ACCUMULATION FUND RULES

Investors who acquire Securities in foreign companies or trusts (eg certain exchange-traded funds
established outside Australia that issue securities quoted on the ASX) should be aware that the
Federal Government has proposed the introduction of attribution rules for interests in a "foreign
accumulation fund" ("FAF"). The legislation is still under development and the then Assistant
Treasurer announced on 29 June 2011 that the proposed FAF rules will have application for income
years starting on or after the date it receives Royal Assent.
Investors should monitor
developments and seek their own advice on the final legislation.
10.

TAXATION OF FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS

Division 230 of the Tax Act operates to tax gains and losses (including foreign exchange gains and
losses) arising from certain "financial arrangements" on revenue account and in some cases on a
compounding accruals basis.
Individuals are generally exempt from the application of Division 230 of the Tax Act, and
superannuation funds, managed investment schemes, financial entities and other entities which are
considered small may be exempt from the application of Division 230 of the Tax Act, unless they
make an election for it to apply. As the application of Division 230 of the Tax Act is complex and
dependent on the facts and circumstances of the Investor, Investors should obtain their own advice
in relation to the potential applicability of Division 230 of the Tax Act to them, in light of their own
individual facts and circumstances.
11.

GENERAL ANTI-AVOIDANCE PROVISIONS

The question of the applicability of the general anti-avoidance provisions in Part IVA of the Tax Act
(which can operate to cancel certain tax benefits) is something which can only be conclusively
determined on a case-by-case basis in light of the relevant facts and circumstances arising for a
particular taxpayer. The provisions will apply if a taxpayer obtains, or would but for the application
of Part IVA obtain, a more favourable outcome (called a "tax benefit") in connection with a scheme
that was entered into by any entity for the dominant purpose of obtaining that tax benefit.
In identifying whether a taxpayer has obtained a tax benefit, it is necessary to determine, very
broadly, whether the tax outcomes under the scheme entered into by the Investor are more
favourable than that which would, or might reasonably be expected to, have been the tax outcome
if the scheme had not been entered into.

224330570.01

34

1800 990 107

Westpac Banking Corporation

Page 13

However, even if a tax benefit has been obtained by an Investor, Part IVA can only apply if the
scheme was entered into by any entity for the dominant purpose of obtaining that tax benefit. The
existence of a dominant purpose should be determined on an objective basis, having regard to the
list of relevant factual circumstances contained in Part IVA of the Tax Act.
As at the date of this letter the Tax Laws Amendment (Countering Tax Avoidance and Multinational
Profit Shifting) Bill 2013 is before Federal Parliament and that Bill proposes amendments to Part
IVA of the Tax Act intended (according to the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum) to broadly
clarify the operation of the general anti-avoidance provisions. For example, in determining a
reasonable alternative to the scheme entered into, an alternative is not discounted merely because
of the tax cost associated with that alternative. If the Bill is enacted into law, the amendments will
take effect retrospectively from 16 November 2012.
Investors should not be affected by the general anti-tax avoidance provisions contained in Part IVA
of the Tax Act, provided that the TEF was not entered into as part of a scheme with the dominant
purpose of obtaining a tax benefit.
12.

GOODS AND SERVICES TAX

GST should not be payable in respect of the Protected Loan, the entry into and exercise of an
Option, or the acquisition or other dealing with the Securities. However, GST will be payable in
respect of certain supplies (ie advice in respect of the Securities, insurance, legal services, broking
services, commissions and other transaction fees incurred by Westpac or Investors).
If any GST becomes payable by Westpac in connection with a supply made to an Investor then
Westpac can require the Investor to pay an additional amount for the GST.
Generally Investors will not be entitled to input tax credits in respect of GST on acquisitions they
make. Where an Investor is registered for GST and their investment activities are part of an
enterprise they carry on, the Investor may be entitled to a reduced input tax credit in respect of
some of this GST.
13.

STAMP DUTY

No stamp duty should be payable in any Australian State or Territory on the entry into an Option or
on the exercise of an Option. This is provided that the Securities the subject of the Option are
quoted on the ASX or other recognised stock exchange at the time of entry into the agreement and
at the time of exercise of the Option.
We expect that no mortgage duty will be payable in relation to any mortgage granted by an
Investor in favour of Westpac. If a stamp duty liability were to arise in connection with a
transaction entered into under the TEF, the Investor would be required to pay that stamp duty
liability.
14.

OTHER TRANSACTIONS

This letter may not cover all possible transactions and events that may happen in connection with
the Options and Protected Loan. Accordingly, Investors should not solely rely on the comments in
this letter and should obtain their own advice having regarded to their particular circumstances.

How you may enter into a Transaction


You must complete the Application Form
attached to the IM to apply to establish a TEF
in your name. If your application is accepted
by Westpac, a TEF will be established in your
name. Westpac has the right, in its absolute
discretion, to refuse to establish a TEF in your
name.
Once a TEF has been established, you
may request to enter into a Transaction by
asking Westpac to send a Deal Sheet to
you setting out the terms on which you may
make a request to Westpac to enter into a
Transaction. Westpac is not obliged to issue
a Deal Sheet in respect of any proposed
Transaction.
A Deal Sheet does not constitute an offer
by Westpac to enter into any Transaction
and Westpac has the right, in its absolute
discretion, to refuse to enter into a Transaction
even if a Deal Sheet is delivered to you.
If you confirm to Westpac in a manner
acceptable to Westpac that you are
comfortable with the indicative terms of a
Transaction set out in a Deal Sheet, you are
taken to have made an irrevocable offer to
enter into the relevant Transaction on the
indicative terms set out in the Deal Sheet,
but provided that the final terms of the
Transaction may differ as a result of changes
to various factors including interest rates and
price movements in respect of the relevant
Securities.
You may also agree the terms of a Transaction
in any other manner acceptable to Westpac
(including by contacting the TEF Investor
Relations team on 1800 990 107 and
agreeing the terms of a Transaction over the
phone).

1.8

2.
2.1

If Westpac agrees to enter into a Transaction


with you, the final terms of the Transaction
will be set out in the Confirmation for that
Transaction. If there are any differences
between the terms of the Deal Sheet for
a Transaction and the terms set out in the
Confirmation, then the terms set out in the
Confirmation prevail. In particular, if we agree
to make a Protected Loan available to you,
the final Protected Loan Amount may differ
from the Protected Loan Amount that you
have applied for.
In respect of a Protected Loan, unless
your request for a Protected Loan is a
Securityholder Application (in which case see
clause 3), then:
(a)
you must use the funds we advance
under the Protected Loan to purchase
a Parcel and, at our discretion, to
pay any Loan Establishment Fee,
fees, Brokerage and any other costs
associated with establishing the
Protected Loan and purchasing the
Parcel and we will arrange payment
of the Protected Loan proceeds to
relevant parties as applicable for these
purposes; and
(b)
if the request relates to more than one
Parcel and it is approved, and subject
to clause 1.8, there will be a separate
Protected Loan relating to each Parcel
and interest, costs, fees and other
obligations will be calculated separately
in respect of each Protected Loan.
If you request two or more Protected Loans
over different Parcels of Securities with the
same Issue Date, Maturity Date and Interest
Periods, Westpac may treat the Protected
Loans as one loan and provide a consolidated
Deal Sheet and Confirmation containing a
single interest rate for all the Protected Loans
making up the consolidated loan.
Conditions that must be satisfied before
Westpac will enter into a Transaction with you
We may enter into a Transaction with you
where all of the following conditions are
satisfied (or have been waived by us in writing
in respect of the relevant Transaction) on or
before the Issue Date:
(a)
in the case of an Option, an irrevocable
offer to enter into an Option with a
Notional Value of at least $500,000
(or any other amount we may at our
discretion agree from time to time)
has been made to us in a manner
acceptable to us;

executed by each relevant Guarantor
in a form and substance satisfactory to

you and any Guarantors have met any
additional conditions to our reasonable
satisfaction; and
(l)
where you are acting in your capacity
as trustee of any trust, if we ask, we
have received a certificate from your
solicitor in a form satisfactory to us in
respect of the trust.
Even if each of the conditions in clause 2.1
are satisfied, we may refuse, in our absolute
discretion, to enter into any Transaction with you.
If, in accordance with clause 2.1 or 2.2, we
refuse to enter into a Transaction with you, we
will not be liable to you for any loss, damages or
costs which you may incur or suffer as a result.

Securityholder Application
If you are the registered holder of Securities
which:
(a)
have not been acquired under a
Protected Loan, or were acquired
under a Protected Loan and you wish
to enter into a new Protected Loan to
repay your initial Protected Loan;
(b)
are free from any Encumbrance that
would limit your ability to deal in those
Securities (other than a lien, mortgage,
or charge created under a previous
Protected Loan); and
(c)
comprise of one or more Parcels with
a value at the Issue Date of at least
$500,000 (or such other amount as
may be agreed by us from time to time)
per Parcel, then, subject to clause
2, you may request that we make a
Protected Loan available to you in
respect of that Parcel or those Parcels
of Securities.
We may agree to make a Protected Loan
available to you in the circumstances
described in clause 3.1. You agree and
acknowledge that if we agree to make a
Protected Loan available to you:
(a)
the nominated Securities will form part
of the Secured Property and will be
subject to the Mortgage;
(b)
we will grant a Loan Put Option in
accordance with clause 12 over the
nominated Securities; and
(c)
you will use the Protected Loan
proceeds wholly or predominantly for
business or investment purposes (other
than investment in residential property),
and not for personal, domestic or
household purposes.
If we agree to make a Protected Loan
available to you in these circumstances,
the nominated Securities must be held in a
Westpac HIN where they will be held subject
to the Mortgage.
If requested, we will arrange payment of
Protected Loan proceeds to repay any initial
Protected Loan or other loan.

4. Confirmation
4.1 As soon as reasonably practicable after
a Transaction is entered into between
Westpac and you, Westpac will send you a

Failure by Westpac to provide a Confirmation
to you does not affect the validity of any
Transaction.

You acknowledge and agree that:
(a)
there are risks associated with
Transactions and you have closely
and carefully considered whether
Transactions are appropriate for you;
(b)
you have relied on your own judgment
or that of your professional advisers

comply with your obligations under
these Terms and Conditions, there is a
Default or you do not hold a Protected
Loan to Maturity;
(d)
we may call on any Guarantee and

Subject to these Terms and Conditions, by
entering into a Transaction with Westpac:
(a)
you irrevocably authorise Westpac to
acquire and sell Securities in a Parcel
either by giving instructions to the
Broker on your behalf on the terms set
out in clause 6.2, or directly from or to
us or our related body corporate;
(b)
you acknowledge that Westpac will
appoint the Sponsor as the Participant
in respect of your Holdings that
constitute the Secured Property as set
out in these Terms and Conditions; and

to pay the purchase price of the
Securities from the Protected Loan
Amount.
You acknowledge that:
(a)
if we, acting on your behalf as agent,
direct the Broker to acquire or sell
Securities, the Broker will do so in
accordance with their terms and
conditions; and
(b)
all dealings in Securities on your behalf

the Rules.
You may contact us to request a copy of the

acting in accordance with your
instructions; or
(c)
your failure to settle any transaction by
its due date or to strictly comply with
these Terms and Conditions.
You acknowledge that the price at which
transfers of Securities are made may
represent neither the closing price of the
Security on ASX (or any other market) on
that day nor the best price of the day. You
acknowledge that the price at which transfers
of Securities are made will depend on a
number of factors, including the market depth
and trading volume, the time at which the
sale or purchase request is processed and
that neither we nor the Broker are under any

1800 990 107

6.6

obligation to process such a request except in


accordance with clause 6.6.
We will use our reasonable endeavours to
arrange the execution of all requests for sales
and purchases of selected Securities as soon

11.3 In the case of a fixed rate Protected Loan,
the interest rate applicable to the Protected
Loan will be set out in the Confirmation for the

set out in any Deal Sheet.
11.4 In the case of an annually resetting rate
Protected Loan, the interest rate applicable
to the Protected Loan for the first Interest

Interest Period will be set by us from time to
time, at or about the commencement of the
relevant Interest Period, and communicated to
you in writing.

11.8 You must pay the interest on the Protected
Loan at the applicable interest rate annually in

bank account in relation to a Protected Loan
on each due date for payment of such interest
subject to the following:
(a)
Notwithstanding clause 11.9, if the

is not a Business Day, then we may,
in our sole discretion, alter the due

after the originally scheduled date is
within the same calendar month as
the originally scheduled date, so that
the due date will be deferred until the
first following Business Day after the
originally scheduled due date.
(b)
If the payment is not made on the due
date, for whatever reason, then the
amount remains payable and we may
continue to attempt to direct debit
your nominated bank account until the
amount is paid and clause 16.5 will
apply.

specified in the Confirmation for a Protected
Loan on or before the Business Day after the

27. GST
You, Westpac and the Sponsor agree that:
(a)
unless expressly stated otherwise,
all Payments have been calculated
without regard to GST;
(b)
if the whole or any part of any Payment
is the consideration for a Taxable
Supply, the recipient of the Taxable
Supply must pay to the supplier an
additional amount equal to the GST
Amount. Unless otherwise agreed in
writing, such additional amount is to be
paid on the earlier of:
(i)
the date on which the first
Payment in relation to the
Taxable Supply becomes
payable; and
(ii)
the date five Business Days
after the date on which an
Invoice (as that term is defined
in the GST Law) is issued in
relation to the Taxable Supply;
(c)
if, in relation to a Taxable Supply, an
Adjustment Event occurs that gives
rise to an Adjustment then the GST
Amount will be adjusted accordingly

provided however that a refund will only

(d)

(e)

be made to the extent that the supplier


is entitled to a refund or credit from the
Commissioner of Taxation. If a payment
is required, it will be made within five

third party except to the extent that
Westpac or the Sponsor are entitled
to an Input Tax Credit for that GST.
Unless notified otherwise by Westpac

Westpac or the Sponsor, as the case
may be, are not entitled to any input
tax credit for that GST.

your obligations to us under these Terms and
Conditions and any Security Interest.
29.3 The Mortgage will operate as a first ranking
security and attaches to the Secured
Property:

observe any restrictions, and do

immediately after becoming aware of

all your rights in respect of any Secured
Property will cease and we shall be entitled
to exercise those rights and you shall, at your
own cost and expense, promptly execute
any instrument (including proxies) as we may
require. An amount equal to any ordinary
cash Dividend, rights or any other property

Certificate to a Holding and agree to execute
any transfer form as requested by us. Any
costs incurred by us in respect of this
conversion shall be borne by you.
30.3 Without limiting clause 29.4, in respect of any
Secured Property, the powers conferred on
us, as mortgagee, by Law:
(a)
are in addition to the Powers conferred

or agreements:
(a)
you dispense with any notice or

any Power; and
(b)
without limitation, you agree that:

we may take any action in relation to the
Securities or Cash Collateral as we think fit.
31. Discharge of Security Interest
31.1 Subject to clause 31.2, we must discharge:

(c)
with regard to the satisfaction of all
of your obligations under a Sold Call
Option, Sold Put Option or Collar,

Security Interest has been discharged,
or we or the Sponsor shall deal with
such Securities as you direct.
31.2 If:
(a)
we have at any time released or
discharged any Guarantor from their
obligations under any Security Interest
in reliance on a payment, receipt or
other transaction to or in favour of us;
(b)
that payment, receipt or other
transaction is subsequently claimed
by any person to be void, voidable
or capable of being set aside for any
reason, including under a Law relating

that claim is upheld, conceded or
compromised, then:

things and execute all documents as
we may reasonably require to restore
all those rights to us; and

32.6 You and Westpac each acknowledge
that the Custodian may be required
(including under applicable legislation)
to provide information about your
interest in the Secured Property. You
and Westpac each authorise the
Custodian to do this without needing to

and direct the outgoing Custodian
to do all things necessary to transfer
the Secured Property to the incoming
Custodian.

under these Terms and Conditions in
respect of the relevant Transaction to
which that Secured Property relates.

respect of any Securities the subject
of a Transaction, then provided you
have complied with your obligations
under these Terms and Conditions and
there is no Default, we will release the
Mortgage in respect of the ordinary
Dividend and we direct the Custodian
to pay the ordinary Dividend to you.

30 days before the change comes into


effect. However, such notice will not be

J Solicitors Trust Opinion


Where you are applying for TEF in the capacity of an individual or
company acting as trustee of a trust, ask your solicitor to read and
complete this form. Do not make any amendments to this form. You
must also attach an original certified copy of the trust deed and any
subsequent amendments to the trust deed.
Solicitors Trust Opinion
I certify that:
1. I am a solicitor holding a current unrestricted practising certificate
and engaged by the applicant (Trustee) as trustee of the trust
(trust) each as described in this Application Form independently
of Westpac;
2. I have examined the documents (trust documents) set out in
the Schedule below (copies of which are attached to this Application
Form) in relation to the trust described in this Application Form.
To the best of my knowledge and belief, these are the only
documents relating to the constitution and powers of the trust;
3. to the best of my knowledge and belief, the trust has been validly
constituted and is subsisting at the date of this application;
4. having reviewed the IM and the Application Form (transaction
documents), in my opinion, the Trustee has the power to borrow
the funds and grant security and perform all the obligations and
transactions (transactions) contemplated in the transaction
documents;
5. to the best of my knowledge and belief, the entry into the
transactions and performance of the obligations under the
transaction documents by the Trustee is considered to be for
the benefit of the trust;
6. the terms of the trust documents examined by me do not restrict
the right of the Trustee to be fully indemnified out of the assets
of the trust to satisfy any liability of Westpac properly incurred
by the Trustee as trustee of the trust arising out of the transactions
contemplated by the transaction documents;
7. the trust documents, consent(s), authorities or other documents
examined by me, enable the Trustee to enter into and perform
the transactions despite any conflict of interest and duty which
may arise on the part of the Trustee; and if the Trustee is a
company, of any of its directors, when entering into the
transactions contemplated by the transaction documents;
8. the trust documents authorise the assets of the trust to be held
in the name of a nominee;
9. the trust documents authorise the Trustee to delegate the
Trustees powers;
10. the trust documents authorise the Trustee to enter into contracts
in relation to trust property, to borrow and to enter into derivatives,
in each case, in the Trustees capacity as trustee of the trust;
11. no consent is required from any beneficiary of the trust under
the trust documents to enable the Trustee to enter into and
perform the transactions; and
12. this opinion is to be relied upon by Westpac, the Broker, the
Sponsor and their respective assigns.
