Important notice
This is an important booklet. It invites you to make an offer to sell your Shares to Ampol in the Buy-Back.
It contains information to assist you in making a decision as to whether to participate in the Buy-Back.
It does not provide financial product advice and has been prepared without taking into account your particular objectives, financial situation, taxation circumstances or needs. You should consider the appropriateness of the Buy-Back having regard to these factors. If you are in any doubt as to the action you should take, please consult your financial, taxation or other professional adviser. The distribution of this booklet in some jurisdictions outside of Australia and New Zealand may be restricted by law and does not constitute an invitation to participate in any place where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to do so. Persons who come into possession of this booklet should seek advice on it and observe any restrictions on distributing it.
