Westpac Announcement 30 April 2009
ALERT ON UNSOLICITED OFFERS FOR WBC SHARES
Westpac Banking Corporation (WBC) is aware that a company called Hassle Free
Shares Pty Ltd (Hassle Free) has recently made an unsolicited offer to some WBC
shareholders to purchase their WBC shares at a price of $10.00 per share. This price is
substantially below the recent average price of Westpac shares.
WBC does not endorse these unsolicited offers by Hassle Free and is not associated with any
such offers. Hassle Free has relied upon provisions in the Corporations Act to compel WBC
to provide it with a copy of its share registry.
If shareholders receive an offer, from Hassle Free or any other company, to buy their WBC
shares, we strongly recommend they should:
�� read the offer document carefully;
�� compare the offer price against the market price of WBC shares; and
�� seek independent advice from a qualified professional advisor or stockbroker before
making any decisions about selling their WBC shares.
Importantly, there is no compulsion for shareholders to accept any such offer.
WBC’s share price is published in the financial pages of major newspapers and is available
from the ASX website (www.asx.com.au, code: WBC). The ASX website also provides
details on how to find a licensed broker.etc
