Dear AIX Securityholder

1 Parliament Square (off Parliament Place) in Melbourne on Tuesday 15 January 2013, from 10am.
The Extraordinary General Meeting, following immediately after the Annual General Meeting, is being held to allow securityholders to consider a proposal to sell AIX's assets to the Future Fund and then return substantially all of AIX's cash reserves, including the net proceeds of the asset sale, to securityholders ("Proposed Transaction"). We encourage all securityholders to consider the Proposed Transaction and to vote on the resolutions at the EGM. If you are unable to attend the meetings, we request that you vote on the resolutions by completing the applicable proxy forms. The last time for receipt of the proxy forms is 10.30am (AEDT) on Sunday 13 January 2013. Proxy forms should be faxed to our registry, Computershare Investor Services on 1800 783 447 (within Australia) or +61 3 9473 2555 (outside Australia), or completed electronically at www.investorvote.com.au and following the instructions provided.The Independent Directors for AIX unanimously consider that the Proposed Transaction is in the best interests of securityholders and recommend that AIX securityholders vote in favour of each of the resolutions required to implement the Proposed Transaction, in the absence of a superior proposal. AIX has not received a superior proposal to date.
If you have any questions about the AIX securityholder meetings or the Proposed Transaction, please call the AIX Information Line on 1800 606 449 (toll-free for calls made from within Australia) or +61 2 8256 3382 (for calls made from outside Australia).
