Second Mandatory Exchange Condition: the VWAP of Ordinary Shares during the period of 20 Business Days before (but not including) a possible Mandatory Exchange Date is greater than 50.51% of the Issue Date VWAP; and Third Mandatory Exchange Condition: Ordinary Shares are listed or admitted to trading on ASX as at the Mandatory Exchange Date The First and Second Mandatory Exchange Conditions are intended to provide some protection for Holders against Exchange occurring when the price of Ordinary Shares has fallen to such a level that you would only receive the Maximum Exchange Number 1 The number of Ordinary Shares received for each PERLS VIII will have a value equal to A$101.01 (based on the Face Value (initially A$100) and the VWAP of Ordinary Share during the 20 Business Days before the Mandatory Exchange Date with a benefit of a 1% discount Commonwealth Bank of Australia / PERLS VIII Investor Presentation CAN#11- Automatic Early Exchange – Non-Viability Trigger Event Non-Viability Trigger Event A Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs when APRA notifies CBA in writing that it believes: Exchange of all or some PERLS VIII (or the taking of an action in relation to other capital instruments of the CBA Group), is necessary because, without it, CBA would become non-viable; or a public sector injection of capital, or equivalent support, is necessary because, without it, CBA would become non-viable 11 Examples of situations in which a Non-Viability Trigger Event may occur Whether a Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs is at the discretion of APRA - there are currently no precedents The circumstances in which APRA may exercise its discretion are not limited to when APRA may have a concern about a bank's capital levels but may also include when APRA has a concern about a bank's funding and liquidity levels Exchange following a Non-Viability Trigger Event Maximum Exchange Number If a Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs, CBA must immediately Exchange such number of PERLS VIII (or a percentage of the Face Value of each PERLS VIII) as specified by APRA or necessary to satisfy APRA that CBA will no longer be non-viable On Exchange, Holders receive a variable number of Ordinary Shares (subject to the Maximum Exchange Number) with the benefit of a 1% discount The Mandatory Exchange Conditions do not apply and the Terms provide that Exchange occurs automatically without the need for any further act or step by CBA and that CBA will recognise Holders as having been issued Ordinary Shares Calculated according to the formula: (Face Value) / (Relevant Percentage x Issue Date VWAP) The Relevant Percentage is 20% if Exchange is occurring as a result of a Non-Viability Trigger Event Commonwealth Bank of Australia / PERLS VIII Investor Presentation CAN#12Automatic Early Exchange - Capital Trigger Event Capital Trigger Event Exchange following a Capital Trigger Event Maximum Exchange Number Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio A Capital Trigger Event occurs when: CBA determines; or APRA notifies CBA in writing that it believes that either or both the CBA Level 1 or CBA Level 2 Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio is equal to or less than 5.125% If a Capital Trigger Event occurs, CBA must immediately Exchange such number of PERLS VIII (or a percentage of the Face Value of each PERLS VIII) as is sufficient to return the relevant Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio to above 5.125% The Mandatory Exchange Conditions do not apply and the Terms provide that Exchange occurs automatically without the need for any further act or step by CBA and that CBA will recognise Holders as having been issued Ordinary Shares Calculated according to the formula: (Face Value) / (Relevant Percentage x Issue Date VWAP) The Relevant Percentage is 20% if Exchange is occurring as a result of a Capital Trigger Event The Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio is the ratio of CBA's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital to its risk-weighted assets, where Common Equity Tier 1 Capital is the strongest form of capital held by CBA As at 31 December 2015, CBA's Level 2 Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 10.2%. This equates to a surplus of approximately A$20.1bn above the Capital Trigger Event level of 5.125% CBA Level 2 Common Equity Tier 1 Capital levels (under APRA's approach) 12 Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (A$bn) Capital Trigger Event Capital Trigger Event (A$bn) Surplus above Capital Surplus Common Equity Tier 1 Trigger Event Capital (A$bn) 31 Dec 2015 30 Jun 2015 10.2% 40.2 5.125% 20.1 5.1% 20.1 9.1% 33.4 5.125% 18.9 4.0% 14.5 31 Dec 2014 30 Jun 2014 9.2% 32.6 5.125% 18.1 4.1% 14.5 9.3% 31.4 5.125% 17.3 4.2% 14.1 Commonwealth Bank of Australia / PERLS VIII Investor Presentation CAN#13Comparison to other CBA hybrid securities There are differences between PERLS III and PERLS VIII, and PERLS VIII may not suit your investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs.

They are not deposit liabilities or protected accounts of CBA under the Banking Act Investments in PERLS VIII are subordinated and unsecured liabilities. On a winding up of CBA, there is a risk that you may lose some or all of the money you invested in PERLS VIII Distributions are discretionary and subject to the distribution payment conditions being satisfied. Distributions that are not paid do not accrue and will not be subsequently paid PERLS VIII may be Exchanged for Ordinary Shares on the Mandatory Exchange Date (subject to the Maximum Exchange Number and Mandatory Exchange Conditions) or on another date if certain events occur. This includes if a Capital Trigger Event, Non-Viability Trigger Event or Change of Control Event occurs. There is a risk that on Exchange you may receive a number of Ordinary Shares with a value which is significantly less than the Face Value, including as a result of the application of the Maximum Exchange Number and of the market price of Ordinary Shares at the time you may sell your Ordinary Shares Dividends are payable at the absolute discretion of CBA and, in a winding up of CBA, claims of holders of Ordinary Shares rank behind claims of holders of all other securities and debts of CBA. In contrast, distributions on PERLS VIII are payable in accordance with the Terms and claims of PERLS VIII holders rank ahead of holders of Ordinary Shares - If a Capital Trigger Event or Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs and the Exchange is not effective and CBA has not otherwise issued Ordinary Shares within 5 Business Days of the event, then Holders' rights under the relevant PERLS VIII will be terminated. Your investment in the relevant PERLS VIII will lose all of its value – the Face Value will not be paid and you will not receive any compensation. This could occur if CBA was prevented from issuing Ordinary Shares by circumstances outside its control, for example, if CBA was prevented by an applicable law or order of any court, or action of any government authority from issuing Ordinary Shares 1 You should read Section 5 "Risk of CommBank PERLS VIII Capital Notes" in full before deciding to invest Commonwealth Bank of Australia / PERLS VIII Investor Presentation CAN#25Appendix: CommBank PERLS VIII Capital Notes - Key Benefits and Key Risks¹ 25 Key Risks of PERLS VIII (cont.) PERLS VIII may not be Exchanged on the scheduled Mandatory Exchange Date and you may continue to hold PERLS VIII indefinitely CBA may redeem PERLS VIII on the Call Date or at any time for tax or regulatory reasons, subject to APRA's prior written approval. APRA's approval may or may not be given You do not have a right to request that your PERLS VIII be Exchanged or Redeemed early CBA may raise more debt and issue further securities which rank equally with or ahead of PERLS VIII, whether or not secured The Distribution Rate will fluctuate with changes in the Market Rate.
