Subject to rules 5, 7 and 8, each Option entitles the Option holder (or, in the event of the death or total or permanent disability of the Employee, the Employee's legal or personal representative) to subscribe for one Share at the Exercise Price.

3.4 Offer of Options

On an offer of Options to an Eligible Participant, the Company must provide the Eligible Participant with an Option Invitation. To accept the offer of Options, the Application for Options must be signed by the Eligible Participant and returned to the Company within 10 Business Days.

Subject to rule 4.2, Options expire at 5.00pm on the Expiry Date unless otherwise determined by the Board and detailed in the Option Invitation.

4.2 Employment Cessation

  • (a) Should any person cease to be an Employee due to consistent or a material default of the terms of their employment or engagement with the Company, all Options granted to them pursuant to this Plan are deemed to lapse upon the cessation of their employment.

  • (b) Should any person cease to be an Employee,

  • (i) by reason of that Employee's Retirement, all Options granted to that Employee pursuant to this Plan are deemed to expire 90 days after the Employee Retires, or

  • (ii) because of the Employee’s death or Total and Permanent Disablement, all Options granted to that Employee pursuant to this Plan are deemed to expire 120 days after their death or total and permanent disablement.

whichever is earlier,

provided the Employee is not in material default of the terms of his or her employment at the time of their cessation, and has not consistently been in default of the terms of their employment whilst employed.

4.3 Fraud or dishonesty

An unexercised Option lapses if, in the opinion of the Board, the Option Holder has acted fraudulently or dishonestly in their capacity as an Employee and the Board determines that such Option lapses.

4.4 Lapse

Options not exercised on or before 5.00pm on the Expiry Date automatically lapse, unless otherwise determined by the Board acting in its sole discretion.

4.5 Effect of lapse

In the event that an Option lapses under this rule 4, all rights in respect of the relevant Options cease and no consideration or other compensation will be payable by the Company for or in relation to that lapse of Options.

5. Exercise of Options

5.1 Manner of Exercise

An Option holder whose exercise of Options would not be in breach of rule 11 may exercise Outstanding Options, in whole or in part, by lodging with the Company at its registered office:

  • (a) the Option Certificate for the Options;

  • (b) a duly completed and signed Exercise Notice; and

  • (c) the subscription money for the relevant Shares, being the number of Options specified in the Exercise Notice multiplied by the Exercise Price for those Options.

5.2 Timeframe for Exercise

  • (a) Subject to rule 5.3, an Option Holder may only exercise Options during the Exercise Period.

  • (b) In addition to the restrictions referred to in rules 4.2 and 5.2(a), the Board may impose such other restrictions on the exercise of an Option as it in its absolute discretion sees fit.

5.3 Takeovers

Despite rule 5.2, Option holders may exercise any of their Options during a Bid Period.

6. Issue of Shares on Exercise

Subject to rules 5 and 8, the Company must:

  • (a) allot and issue to the Option Holder the number of Shares which corresponds with the number of Options being exercised under rule 5; and

  • (b) apply for official quotation of those Shares on the ASX within 15 Business Days after the date the Options are duly exercised and the Exercise Price is paid.

7.

Reconstructions

If, at any time prior to the exercise by an Option holder of any Outstanding Options, there is any reconstruction (including a consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company, the Outstanding Options will be reorganised in the manner required by the Listing Rules on a reconstruction of capital at the time of the reconstruction.

8. Bonus Issues

On each Bonus Date, each Outstanding Option confers on the Option holder the right to receive, on exercise of those Outstanding Options, not only one Share for each of the Outstanding Options exercised but also the additional Shares and/or other securities the Option holder would have received had the Option holder participated in that Bonus Issue as a holder of Shares of a number equal to the Shares that would have been allotted to the Option holder had the Option holder exercised those Outstanding Options immediately before that Bonus Date.

9.

Participation in New Issues

Outstanding Options do not carry the right to participate in any new issues of securities by the Company prior to the exercise of those Options.

10. Equal Ranking of Shares

10.1 Shares Issued on Exercise Rank Equally

Subject to rule 10.2, any Shares issued pursuant to any exercise of Options rank equally in all respects with other Shares of the Company on issue at the Issue Date.

10.2 Entitlement to Dividend

Where any Shares are issued pursuant to the exercise of Options during a period in respect of which a dividend is declared, the holder of those Shares is only entitled to receive that dividend where the Shares were issued on or before the relevant dividend entitlement (record) date.

11. Compliance with Law and Orders

11.1 No Breach of Law

An Option holder must not exercise any Options, and no purported exercise has any effect, if in doing so the Option holder would be in breach of, or would cause the Company or any of its Related Bodies Corporate to be in breach of:

  • (a) any provision of the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1975 (Cth);

  • (b) any undertaking given by the Company to the Foreign Investment Review Board at the request of the Foreign Investment Review Board from time to time;

  • (c) the Listing Rules; or

  • (d) any other applicable law.

11.2 Interpretation

For the purposes of rule 11.1, references to the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1975 (Cth) mean the relevant Act as it may be amended or modified or replaced or supplemented by another Act or regulation dealing with similar subject matter.

12. Calculations

12.1 Performing Calculations

Any calculations or adjustments which are required to be made for the purpose of any Options must be made by the auditors of the Company for the time being and will, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on the Option Holder.

The Company must notify an Option Holder of any adjustment made to the Exercise Price or the number of the Option Holder’s Outstanding Options within 10 Business Days after the date of the adjustment.

13. Replacement of Certificates

  • (b) Mutilated or defaced Option Certificates must be surrendered before replacements will be issued.

  • (d) delegate to any one or more persons, for any period and on any conditions determined by the Board, the exercise of any of the Board’s powers or discretions arising under this Option Plan.

15. Termination of Plan

The Board may terminate this Plan at any time, at its absolute discretion. Termination does not affect the rights under this Plan of employees in respect of offers that they have accepted or offers that are outstanding.

16. Notices

Any notice by the Company regarding the Options must be sent to the registered address of the Option Holder as recorded in the register of option holders maintained by the Company.

17. Governing Laws
