2 BT Private Portfolio is a specialised investment management service offered by Westpac RE Limited through BT Managed Accounts and is structured as an Individually Managed Account (IMA). Exclusive portfolio management BT Private Portfolio is available to individuals and organisations with a minimum of $1 million to invest and is designed to work closely with your banker, financial planner and others in delivering a holistic wealth solution. Your dedicated Portfolio Manager provides individualised portfolio management that reflects your investment objectives in establishing and managing a tax-effective, diversified investment portfolio. Why use BT Private Portfolio? > > Dedicated Portfolio Manager > > Access to expert investment professionals > > Beneficial ownership of Australian shares and listed property > > Professional portfolio management > > A tailored, diversified portfolio > > Comprehensive portfolio administration and online reporting Dedicated Portfolio Manager Portfolio Managers are experienced individuals with extensive investment markets knowledge, relevant professional qualifications, sound relationship management skills and offer a high touch approach to portfolio management. A dedicated Portfolio Manager is your primary source of contact and is personally responsible and accountable for the relationship. Access to expert investment professionals BT Investment Management (RE) Limited ( BTIM ), have a professional team of equity and property analysts provide the research and create our model portfolios. Portfolios are constructed and dynamically managed based on established valuation principles that reflect both return objectives and risk management characteristics at a stock, sector and portfolio level. Beneficial ownership of Australian shares and listed property An IMA offers beneficial ownership of the underlying Australian shares and listed property assets in your portfolio. A key advantage of beneficial ownership is that you are entitled to all income (dividends, distributions) and any taxation concessions (franking credits). BT Private Portfolio also offers the ability to seamlessly transfer any existing investments (Australian equities) into your portfolio. The transfer of stock does not generally result in a change of beneficial ownership and as a result there are no taxation implications, noting that individual taxation advice is recommended. Professional portfolio management As the securities held in your BT Private Portfolio are beneficially owned, your Portfolio Manager will be influenced by the need to consider the after tax outcomes of any trading activity. This is in contrast to an investment in a pooled (managed) fund whereby any taxation liabilities are to the fund, and in turn, allocated to all unitholders equally. BT Private Portfolio offers three taxation accounting methods from which to choose: 1 > > Maximise capital losses or, if no capital losses are available, minimise capital gains (default); > > First In, First Out method, meaning the first investments bought are the first sold; or > > Maximise capital gains or, if no capital gains are available, minimise capital losses.

3 A tailored, diversified portfolio You can choose a model portfolio that is suited to your risk appetite and investment needs. Furthermore, you can select from a variety of unlisted Managed Funds to gain exposure to other asset classes. A list of these unlisted Managed Funds can be found on page 14 of the application form.

Additionally, you can elect to place restrictions on stocks and sectors to suit your preferences (for example, ethical considerations or substantial holdings).
