These pages of our ☐ annual report: This URL on our https://blackwall.com.au/uploads/Group-Corporate-Governance- ☑ website: Statement-2022-23.pdf

The Corporate Governance Statement is accurate and up to date as at 29 August 2023 and has been approved by the board. The annexure includes a key to where our corporate governance disclosures can be located.[3]

Date: 29 August 2023 Name of authorised officer Agata Ryan authorising lodgement: Company Secretary

1 “Corporate governance statement” is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.

Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must also lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The Appendix 4G serves a dual purpose. It acts as a key designed to assist readers to locate the governance disclosures made by a listed entity under Listing Rule 4.10.3 and under the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s recommendations. It also acts as a verification tool for listed entities to confirm that they have met the disclosure requirements of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

The Appendix 4G is not a substitute for, and is not to be confused with, the entity's corporate governance statement. They serve different purposes and an entity must produce each of them separately.

2 Tick whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where your corporate governance statement can be found. You can, if you wish, delete the option which is not applicable.

3 Throughout this form, where you are given two or more options to select, you can, if you wish, delete any option which is not applicable and just retain the option that is applicable. If you select an option that includes “OR” at the end of the selection and you delete the other options, you can also, if you wish, delete the “OR” at the end of the selection.

See notes 4 and 5 below for further instructions on how to complete this form.

BlackWall Group

The Board of Directors of BlackWall Limited is responsible for the corporate governance of the BlackWall Group ( BlackWall or Group ). The Group operates a number of listed and unlisted registered schemes. This corporate governance statement applies to both BlackWall Limited and the ASX-listed stapled security, WOTSO Property (comprising BlackWall Property Trust, WOTSO Limited and Planloc Limited). The Board of directors of the responsible entity for these registered schemes, WOTSO Limited and Planloc Limited is comprised of the same directors as BlackWall Limited. A reference in this document to the Board is a reference to the Board of directors of BlackWall Limited, and its wholly-owned responsible entities from time to time, WOTSO Limited and Planloc Limited.

To the extent they are applicable and appropriate for the Group’s size and nature, the Group has adopted the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations Fourth Edition.

This Corporate Governance Statement has been approved by the Board for the year ended 30 June 2023.

1.3 A listed entity should have a written agreement with each
director and senior executive setting out the terms of their
appointment.
Senior executives have employment agreements setting out the
terms of their appointment.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION

If the entity was in the S&P/ASX 300 Index at the commencement of the reporting period, the measurable objective for achieving gender diversity in the composition of its board should be to have not less than 30% of its directors of each gender within a specified period.

  1. Career Development and Promotion: the Group facilitates equal employment opportunities based on relative ability, performance or potential. All employees are treated fairly and evaluated objectively.

  2. Safe Work Environment: BlackWall is responsible for taking action against inappropriate workplace and business behaviour including discrimination, harassment, bullying, victimisation and vilification. The Group was not required to take action against any inappropriate workplace behaviour during the reporting period.

  3. Flexibility in the Workplace: the Group has a culture that recognises the benefits of flexible working arrangements. During the reporting period the Group provided assistance to its employees allowing them to work flexibly, particularly as the Group responded to the COVID-19 lockdowns.

  4. Succession plans the Group’s culture and management structure facilitates on-the-job training and encourages further professional development and succession.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION COMPLIANCE REASON FOR NON-COMPLIANCE

REASON FOR NON-COMPLIANCE The Board does not have a formal evaluation process. The Board prefers to evaluate and monitor its effectiveness by reference to the growth and success of the business. If an issue is identified with the performance of any particular member, it is raised when the issue is identified rather than at the end of a specified period.

  • 1.6 A listed entity should:

  • (a) have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors; and

  • (b) disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process.

  • 1.7 A listed entity should:

  • (a) have and disclose a process for evaluating the performance of its senior executives at least once every reporting period; and

  • (b) disclose for each reporting period whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in accordance with that process during or in respect of that period.

One of the Board’s fundamental responsibilities is overseeing and monitoring the performance of the Joint Managing Directors.

The Board undertakes an ongoing review process of the Joint Managing Directors’ performance. This is based on criteria, including the business performance of the Group as set out in the papers presented to the Board at bi-monthly Board meetings.

The Joint Managing Directors undertake performance reviews of Senior Executives during each reporting period.

  • (b) if a director has an interest, position, association or relationship of the type described in Box 2.3 but the board is of the opinion that it does not compromise the independence of the director, the nature of the interest, position, association or relationship in question and an explanation of why the board is of that opinion; and

The length of service of each director is as follows:

  • Seph Glew – 13 years

  • (c) the length of service of each director.

  • Richard Hill – 13 years

  • one is held by the Chief Operating Officer (who also holds a material investment in the Group); and

  • one is held by the Chief Financial Officer (who also holds a material investment in the Group).

Accordingly, the Group has not adopted recommendation 2.4. The Board believes that Board members should have a material financial interest in the business to align their interests with members.
