THE Notes


 


Section 2.01

Notes due 2040” (the “Notes”).


 


Section 2.02       
Limitation of Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount. The aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes shall
initially be limited to US$1,000,000,000. The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create
and issue additional notes having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects or in all respects except for the
Issue Date, the issue price and, if applicable, the first date on which interest accrues and the first payment of interest thereon
(“Additional Notes”). Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with, and will form a single
series with, the Notes, unless such Additional Notes will not be treated as fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. The Notes and any such Additional Notes would rank equally and ratably.


 


Section 2.03       
Principal Payment Date. The Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes (together with any accrued and unpaid interest)

Section 2.04       
Interest and Interest Rates.


 


(a)       From
and including November 16, 2020 (the “Issue Date”) until the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes
shall have been paid or duly provided for, the Notes will bear interest on the Outstanding Principal Amount at a rate of
2.963% per year. Interest will accrue on a Note from and including the Issue Date. Interest on the Notes shall be payable
semi-annually in arrears on May 16 and November 16 of each year, beginning on May 16, 2021. Interest on a Note will be paid
to the Person in whose name that Note was registered at the close of business on the May 1 and November 1, as the case may
be, whether or not a Business Day, prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, except that in the case of the Interest
Payment Date that is also the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the interest due on such date will be paid to the Person to whom
principal is payable upon surrender of such Note at a Place of Payment. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for any period less than a full interest period shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month
in such period. Subject to Section 6.1(b) of the Indenture, any payment of principal or interest required to be made on an
Interest Payment Date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will
accrue on that payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. For purposes of the Notes, “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in Sydney, Australia, New York, New York, or London, United
Kingdom are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

WESTPAC BANKING CORPORATION



2.963% Subordinated Note due 2040


 


WESTPAC BANKING
CORPORATION, a company incorporated in the Commonwealth of Australia under the Corporations Act 2001 of the Commonwealth of
Australia and registered in New South Wales (the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation
under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay
to                        
  or registered assigns, the principal sum
of               
(US$            ) (such initial principal amount being the
Outstanding Principal Amount at the Issue Date (as defined below) under paragraph (a) of the definition of Outstanding
Principal Amount in the Indenture) as such initial principal amount may be reduced due to Conversion or Write-off upon the
occurrence of a Non-Viability Trigger Event in accordance with Article V and Article VI of the Indenture or otherwise reduced
in accordance with paragraph (c) of the definition of Outstanding Principal Amount in the Indenture, on November 16, 2040
(the “Stated Maturity”). From and including November 16, 2020 (the “Issue Date”) until
the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes shall have been paid or duly provided for, this Note will bear interest on the
Outstanding Principal Amount at a rate of 2.963% per year. Interest will accrue on this Note from and including the Issue
Date. Interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 16 and November 16 of each year (each such date,
an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning on May 16, 2021. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for any period less than a full interest
period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a
partial month in such period. Subject to Section 6.1(b) of the Indenture, any payment of principal or interest required to be
made on an Interest Payment Date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no
interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of payment on the
next succeeding Business Day. For purposes hereof, “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in Sydney, Australia, New York, New York, or London,
United Kingdom are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.


 


Interest
on this Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person
in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest, which shall be the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case
may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date, at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture;
provided, however, that at the option of the Company, interest on this Note may be paid (i) by check mailed to the address
of the Person entitled thereto as it shall appear on the Register or (ii) to a Holder of US$1,000,000 or more in aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified
in the Register. Any interest on this Note which is payable, but is not punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted
Interest shall instead be payable to the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Special Record Date or other specified
date in accordance with the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest payable on an Interest Payment Date that is also
the Stated Maturity of this Note will be paid at such office or agency to the Person to whom the principal hereof is payable, upon
surrender of this Note at such office or agency.


 


This Note shall not
be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to or be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the
Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.


 


The provisions of this
Note, including the provisions relating to Conversion or possible Write-off upon the occurrence of a Non-Viability Trigger Event,
are continued on the reverse side hereof and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully
set forth at this place.

(FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE)


 


This Note is one of
a duly authorized series of securities of the Company, issued and to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to a Third
Amended and Restated Subordinated Indenture, dated as of November 9, 2018 (the “Base Indenture”), duly executed
and delivered between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture (as defined below)), as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of
November 16, 2020, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with
the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all Indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee,
the Company and the Holders of the Notes. This Note is one of a series of securities designated on the face hereof (the “Notes”).
The Notes are issued pursuant to the Indenture and are limited in aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount to US$1,000,000,000; provided,
however, that the Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional
notes having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects or in all respects except for the Issue Date, the issue
price and, if applicable, the first date on which interest accrues and the first payment of interest thereon. Additional notes
issued in this manner will be consolidated with, and will form a single series with, the Notes, unless such additional notes will
not be treated as fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Notes and any such additional notes would rank
equally and ratably.


 


In accordance with
Articles V and VI of the Indenture, this Note is subject, upon the occurrence of a Non-Viability Trigger Event, to Conversion or
possible Write-off. If this Note is Converted following a Non-Viability Trigger Event, it is likely that the Maximum Conversion
Number will apply and limit the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued. In this case, the value of the Ordinary Shares received
is likely to be significantly less than the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. The Australian Dollar may depreciate in
value against the U.S. dollar by the time of Conversion. In that case, the Maximum Conversion Number is more likely to apply.
If Conversion of this Note (or a percentage of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note) does not occur for any reason within
five ASX Business Days after the Non-Viability Trigger Event Date, this Note (or a percentage of the Outstanding Principal Amount
of this Note to be Converted) will be Written-off and the Holder’s rights in relation to this Note (including with respect
to payments of interest or accrued interest, and the repayment of Outstanding Principal Amount and, upon Conversion, the receipt
of Ordinary Shares issued in respect of this Note) will be immediately and irrevocably written-off and terminated with effect on
and from the Non-Viability Trigger Event Date.


 






    A-4


     


    

 


In the case of Conversion,
the Company will allot and issue to each Holder of this Note the Conversion Number of Ordinary Shares for this Note (subject always
to the Conversion Number being no greater than the Maximum Conversion Number).


 


Conversion Number means:


 


	Conversion Number for this Note	=	Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note (translated into Australian Dollars in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition of Outstanding Principal Amount in the Indenture where the calculation date shall be the Non-Viability Trigger Event Date)
	P x VWAP


 


where:


 


Outstanding Principal
Amount has the meaning given to it in Section 1.1 of the Indenture, as adjusted in accordance with Section 6.13 of the Indenture.


 


P means 0.99


 


VWAP means the
VWAP during the VWAP Period, as adjusted in accordance with Article VI of the Indenture


 


Maximum Conversion Number
means a number calculated according to the following formula:


 


	Maximum Conversion Number for this Note	=	Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note (translated into Australian Dollars in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition of Outstanding Principal Amount in the Indenture where the calculation date shall be the ASX Business Day prior to the Issue Date of this Note)
	0.20 x Issue Date VWAP


 


where:


 


Outstanding Principal
Amount has the meaning given to it in Section 1.1 of the Indenture, as adjusted in accordance with Section 6.13 of the Indenture.


 


Issue Date VWAP
means the VWAP during the period of 20 ASX Business Days on which trading in Ordinary Shares took place immediately preceding but
not including the Issue Date of this Note, as adjusted in accordance with Article VI of the Indenture.


 






    A-5


     


    

 


If this Note is
Converted following a Non-Viability Trigger Event, it is likely that the Maximum Conversion Number will apply and limit the number
of Ordinary Shares to be issued. In this case, the value of the Ordinary Shares received is likely to be significantly less than
the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. The Australian Dollar may depreciate in value against the U.S. dollar by the time
of Conversion. In that case, the Maximum Conversion Number is more likely to apply.


 


In accordance with
Section 5.4(a) of the Indenture, subject to any Write-off, the Holder of this Note (including each holder of beneficial interests
in this Note in global form) by its purchase or holding of this Note shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed that, upon Conversion,
it consents to becoming a holder of Ordinary Shares and agrees to be bound by the constitution of the Company.


 


In accordance with
Section 6.10 of the Indenture, Ordinary Shares issuable upon Conversion may be sold for the benefit of the Holder of this Note.


 


In accordance with
Sections 13.1 and 13.6 of the Indenture, pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article XIII of the Indenture, if the Company
has received the prior written approval of APRA (approval is at the discretion of APRA and may or may not be given), the Company
may redeem the Notes, in whole, but not in part, at its option, upon the occurrence of an Adverse Tax Event or a Regulatory Event,
provided that the Company has obtained, in the case of an Adverse Tax Event, a supporting opinion of legal or tax advisers of recognized
standing in Australia (or, if a Relevant Transaction occurs and the home jurisdiction for tax purposes of such other entity is
not Australia, legal or tax advisers of recognized standing in such other jurisdiction) or, in the case of a Regulatory Event,
a supporting opinion of advisers of recognized standing in Australia or confirmation from APRA, and (i) before or concurrently
with such redemption, the Company replaces this Note with a capital instrument which is of the same or better quality (for the
purposes of the Prudential Standards) than this Note and the replacement of this Note is done under conditions that are sustainable
for the income capacity of the Company (for the purposes of the Prudential Standards), or (ii) the Company obtains confirmation
from APRA that APRA is satisfied having regard to the capital position of the Company and the Group that the Company does not have
to replace this Note.


 


Before the Company
may redeem this Note, the Company must give the Holder of this Note at least 30 days’ written notice and not more than 60
days’ written notice of its intention to redeem this Note. Upon surrender of this Note for redemption in accordance with
said notice, this Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price for this Note, which shall equal 100% of the Outstanding
Principal Amount of this Note. Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph, the Company will pay to the Holder of this
Note redeemed in accordance with Article XIII of the Indenture accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.


 






    A-6


     


    

 


If this Note is called
for redemption and shall not be so paid upon surrender hereof for redemption, the Outstanding Principal Amount shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed herein.


 


In the event of the
occurrence of any Event of Default, no remedy against the Company (including, without limitation, any right to sue for a sum of
damages which has the same economic effect as an acceleration of the Company’s payment obligations) shall be available to
the Trustee or any Holder of this Note for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of this Note or in respect of any breach by
the Company of any obligation, condition or provision binding on it under the terms of this Note other than as set forth in the
Base Indenture. A Holder of this Note has no right to accelerate payment or exercise any other remedies (including any right to
sue for damages) as a consequence of any default other than as set forth in the Base Indenture. In the event of a Winding-Up in
Australia (but not in any other jurisdiction), this Note will become immediately due and payable, unless it has been Converted
or Written-off. This shall be the only circumstance in which the payment of principal on this Note may be accelerated.


 


In accordance with
Section 12.8 of the Indenture, the Company will pay all amounts that it is required to pay in respect of this Note without withholding
or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed or levied
by or on behalf of the Commonwealth of Australia or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such
withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Company will pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so
that the net amount received by the Holder of this Note, after such withholding or deduction, will equal the amount that the Holder
of this Note would have received in respect of this Note without such withholding or deduction; provided that the Company will
pay no additional amounts in respect of this Note for or on account of:


 


		(1)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
the fact that the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of this Note was a resident, domiciliary or national of, or engaged in business
or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, the Commonwealth of Australia or any political subdivision
or taxing authority thereof or therein or otherwise had some connection with the Commonwealth of Australia or any political subdivision
or taxing authority thereof or therein other than merely holding this Note or receiving payments under this Note;



 


		(2)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
the fact that the Holder of this Note presented this Note for payment in the Commonwealth of Australia, unless the Holder was required
to present this Note for payment and it could not have been presented for payment anywhere else;



 






    A-7


     


    

 


		(3)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
the fact that the Holder of this Note presented this Note for payment more than 30 days after the date such payment became due
and was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to the additional amounts
on presenting this Note for payment on any day during that 30 day period;



 


		(4)	any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, duty, assessment
or other governmental charge;



 


		(5)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding
or deduction;



 


		(6)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed if the
Holder, or the beneficial owner, of this Note complied with the Company’s request to provide information concerning his,
her or its nationality, residence or identity or to make a declaration, claim or filing or satisfy any requirement for information
or reporting that is required to establish the eligibility of the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of this Note to receive the
relevant payment without (or at a reduced rate of) withholding or deduction for or on account of any such tax, duty, assessment
or other governmental charge;



 


		(7)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of this Note being an associate of the Company’s for purposes of Section 128F of the
Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 of the Commonwealth of Australia, as amended, or any successor act (the “Australian Tax
Act”) (other than in the capacity of a clearing house, paying agent, custodian, funds manager or responsible entity of
a registered scheme under the Corporations Act 2001 of the Commonwealth of Australia, as amended, or any successor act);



 


		(8)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld as a consequence
of a determination having been made under Part IVA of the Australian Tax Act (or any modification thereof or provision substituted
therefor) by the Australian Commissioner of Taxation that such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge is payable in
circumstances where the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of this Note is a party to or participated in a scheme to avoid such tax
which the Company was not a party to;



 


		(9)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge to, or to a third party on behalf of, a
Holder of this Note, or any beneficial owner of any interest in, or rights in respect of, this Note, upon, with respect to, or
by reason of, such Person being issued Ordinary Shares;



 






    A-8


     


    

 


		(10)	any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge arising under or in connection with Section
1471 to 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including any regulations or official interpretations issued,
agreements (including, without limitation, intergovernmental agreements) entered into or non-U.S. laws enacted with respect thereto
(“FATCA”); or



 


		(11)	any combination of the foregoing.



 


Subject to the foregoing,
additional amounts will also not be payable by the Company with respect to any payment on this Note to any Holder who is a fiduciary
or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that payment would, under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Australia or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, be treated as being derived or received
for tax purposes by a beneficiary or settler of that fiduciary or member of that partnership or a beneficial owner, in each case,
who would not have been entitled to those additional amounts had it been the actual Holder of this Note.

such entity will pay additional amounts on the same basis, except that references to “the Commonwealth of Australia”
(other than in clause (7) above) will be treated as references to both the Commonwealth of Australia and the country in which such
entity is organized or resident (or deemed resident for tax purposes).


 


The Company, and any
other Person to or through which any payment with respect to this Note may be made, shall be entitled to withhold or deduct from
any payment with respect to this Note amounts required to be withheld or deducted under or in connection with FATCA, and Holders
and beneficial owners of this Note shall not be entitled to receive any gross up or other additional amounts on account of any
such withholding or deduction.


 


All references in this
Note to the payment of the principal of or interest on this Note shall be deemed to include the payment of additional amounts to
the extent that, in that context, additional amounts are, were or would be payable as provided above.

provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount (calculated as provided in the Indenture) of the Securities of each series adversely affected thereby
to add any provisions to or to change or eliminate any provisions of the Indenture or any supplemental indenture or to modify the
rights of the Holders of the Securities of each such series, provided that, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding
Security so affected, no such modification shall (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any instalment of
interest on, any Security, provided that the Stated Maturity for the Securities may not be earlier than the fifth anniversary of
the Issue Date of such series of Securities or reduce the Outstanding Principal Amount of any Security or the rate of interest
thereon payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the coin or currency in which any Security or the interest thereon is payable,
or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity of any Security (or,
in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or (b) reduce the percentage in Outstanding Principal Amount
of the Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of

the Holders of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, or (e) modify any Conversion or Write-off provision, or (f)
modify the provisions of Article IV of the Indenture with respect to the subordination of Outstanding Securities of any series
in a manner adverse to the Holders thereof. In addition, no amendment to the terms and conditions of a Security that at the time
of such amendment qualifies as Tier 2 Capital is permitted without the prior written consent of APRA if such amendment may affect
the eligibility of the Notes as Tier 2 Capital as described in the Prudential Standards. Any such consent given by the Holder of
this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and all future Holders of this Note and of any Notes issued on registration
hereof, the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this
Note.


 


Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of this Note, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of
the designated transferee or transferees, a new Note or Notes of like tenor and authorized denominations for an equal aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount in exchange herefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture. Every Note presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee) be
duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Registrar and the
Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be made for any
registration of transfer or for any exchange of this Note, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
