This letter sets out the terms of your employment, and constitutes your employment agreement with ANZ (“employment agreement”).  This employment agreement replaces all existing agreements, arrangements, or understandings between you and ANZ.  (References to ANZ include any corporation related to ANZ under the Corporations Act 2001.)

1 Position, Reporting Arrangements and Location

Your position is Managing Director, ANZ New Zealand reporting me and located at ANZ Centre, 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx.

Your position is at Management Board level.  ANZ may, at its discretion, change your position, reporting arrangements, duties and location on giving you reasonable notice, following consultation with you, and taking into account career considerations and personal circumstances.

The details of your remuneration are set out in the Schedule.  The Schedule forms part of this employment agreement.

4 Leave

4.1 Annual Leave

You will receive 4 weeks’ contracted hours paid annual leave for each completed year of paid service with ANZ.  You are required to take your full annual leave entitlement of 4 weeks over the course of each ANZ financial year (1 October to 30 September), 2 weeks of which must be taken consecutively.  (ANZ policy requires that you are absent for at least 10 consecutive business days per annum.)

At the end of each ANZ financial year, ANZ will deem you to have taken your full 4 weeks’ annual leave.  Accordingly, there will be no positive accrual of this leave and your annual leave balance at 1 October each year will never be more than your balance at 1 October of the previous year, or zero whichever is greater.

4.2 Sick Leave

You may take sick leave in accordance with standard arrangements applicable to all ANZ employees.  Any untaken part of this entitlement is cumulative from year to year.  In the event of prolonged illness, ANZ may decide at its discretion to provide you with sick leave in excess of your sick leave entitlements.  You are not entitled to any payment for unused sick leave when your employment with ANZ ends.

5 Ownership of Intellectual Property and Trade Secrets

All inventions, discoveries, computer software processes and improvements made by you during your employment with ANZ remain the property of ANZ.

By signing this employment agreement, you:

• assign to ANZ all proprietary rights including all ownership rights and copyright and the exclusive right to develop, make, use, sell, license or otherwise benefit from any inventions, discoveries, processes and improvements, made by you within the scope of your employment with ANZ; and

6 Values and Ethical Standards

ANZ has developed guiding values and expects you to actively ensure they are an integral part of the way that you, and those who report to you, carry out duties within ANZ.

ANZ expects you to further ANZ’s objectives and reputation and faithfully and diligently to perform your duties, exercise your powers, and manage with integrity and respect all matters concerning ANZ employees and customers.

ANZ may terminate your employment for any reason (other than (b) or (c) below) by giving you 12 months’ written notice.  ANZ may elect to pay you in lieu of giving you all or part of the notice period based on your TEC.  Alternatively, ANZ may, during the notice period or any part of it, direct you not to perform all or part of the duties of your position, to cease communication with customers, suppliers, employees and contractors of ANZ and/or not to attend your principal place of work.

(b) Retrenchment

If ANZ terminates your employment because no suitable position exists for you, you will be entitled to a severance payment equal to 12 months’ TEC.  If a severance payment is made to you under this clause 12.3(b), you will not be entitled to notice or payment in lieu of notice under clause 12.3(a) above.

SCHEDULE
REMUNERATION ENTITLEMENTS, INCLUDING PAYMENTS ON TERMINATION

Name:	Xxxx Xxxx
Title:	Managing Director, ANZ New Zealand
Location:	ANZ Centre, 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx
Reporting To:	Xxxx XxXxxxxxx, Chief Executive Officer
Schedule Issued:	14 January 2003	Effective Date:	XXX

This Schedule forms part of your employment agreement.

Your remuneration will be a combination of salary, superannuation and benefits as agreed between you and ANZ from time to time using ANZ’s total employment cost (TEC) methodology. Essentially, TEC is the fixed component of remuneration.  It comprises notional salary (65% of TEC) and mandatory superannuation contributions, with the balance being a flexible component.

Mandatory superannuation contributions are paid in accordance with ANZ’s obligations under legislation as varied from time to time.  If legislative requirements for the payment of mandatory superannuation contributions change, the flexible component of your TEC will be varied accordingly (so that your TEC package remains the same).

The flexible component of TEC can be directed to benefits that are available at ANZ’s discretion in accordance with ANZ’s policy as amended from time to time.  It can be taken as a cash benefit (also referred to as Cashtec) or non-cash benefits (such as motor vehicles, petrol, parking and, if applicable, concessional lending) or a combination of both cash benefit/Cashtec and non-cash benefits.  Any fringe benefits tax that is payable on non-cash benefits will form part of the flexible component of TEC.

Your notional salary, superannuation and cash benefit/Cashtec (if applicable) will be paid fortnightly and non-cash benefits will be provided as applicable.  ANZ will review your TEC annually.

Bonus payments are at the discretion of the Board.

1 Total Target Reward

Your Total Target Reward (TTR) is a combination of Fixed Reward — TEC (60% of TTR) plus Variable Reward — Executive Remuneration Scheme (40% of TTR).  Your annualised TTR is AUD$833,333.

1.1 Fixed Reward - TEC

Your TEC package on commencement of work in your new position is AUD$500,000 per annum.

You must take 65% of TEC as notional salary.  The balance, less mandatory superannuation contributions, is a flexible component and can be taken as cash benefit/Cashtec or non-cash benefits or a combination of both.

1.2 Variable Reward - Executive Remuneration Scheme

Bonus payments under the Executive Remuneration Scheme are subject to business unit and individual performance and are at the discretion of the Board.

Bonuses will be paid one-half in cash and one-half in deferred shares.  The shares will vest 3 years from the date of issue.  The Board may, at its discretion, change the ratio of cash to shares.  You must at all times comply with the provisions of ANZ’s Share Trading Policy.

i

2 Superannuation

Your notional salary is used to calculate your superannuation contributions (if any) and the level of mandatory superannuation contributions.  It is also used to calculate the insured component of your death and total and permanent disablement benefits.  For full details of the ANZ Australian Staff Superannuation Scheme, refer to the member’s booklet.

3 Relocation

ANZ will pay you an allowance of $NZD4,992 gross at the end of each fortnight for the duration of up to 3 years. Payment of all applicable taxes will be your responsibility from the date payments commence. This allowance will cease should you no longer be in the employment of ANZ or should you transfer to Australia at ANZ instigation prior to the end of the 3 years.

If within 18 months from the date of entering into a property purchase agreement, ANZ terminates your employment in New Zealand (for any other reason than dismissal due to misconduct or by failure to perform duties in accordance with this contract), or you are required to return to Australia at the instigation of ANZ, and the New Zealand property is sold within four months of receipt of notice of your termination of employment in New Zealand or transfer to Australia at ANZ instigation, ANZ will indemnify you for any amount by which the sale price of the property is less than $NZD1.525m. Taking into account all circumstances at the time of sale, you and ANZ may agree to waive the four month period to sell the property.

4 Entitlements upon Termination of Employment

Upon termination of employment, you will be entitled to payment for accrued and unused long service leave and annual leave in accordance with the standard arrangements applicable to all ANZ employees.  Payments will be on the basis of your notional salary plus cash benefit/Cashtec.
