9

Corrs Chambers Westgarth

  • (b) In particular, the BWP Boards may waive, amend or replace any performance measure in a Condition if the BWP Boards determine that the original performance measure in a Condition is no longer appropriate or applicable (for instance, if a particular stock market index is no longer published, or there is a corporate action by the BWP Stapled Group, including a discounted rights issue or there are extraneous economic circumstances), provided that the interests of the relevant Participant are not, in the opinion of the BWP Boards, materially prejudiced.

7.2 Restrictions on amendments

Without the consent of the Participant, no amendment may be made to the terms of any Stapled Security allocated or Performance Right granted under the Plan which reduces the rights of the Participant in respect of that Stapled Security or Performance Right, other than an amendment introduced primarily:

When employment ceases

Subject to applicable laws, a Participant who is granted an approved leave of absence and who exercises their right to return to work under any applicable award, enterprise agreement, other agreement, statute or regulation will be treated for those purposes as not having ceased to be such an employee.

The BWP Boards may in their absolute discretion apply an adjustment (upwards or downwards) to the number of a Participant’s Stapled Securities or Performance Rights that vest at the end of the Vesting Period based on application of the Conditions and any other relevant conditions.

Where the BWP Boards decide to reduce the number of Participant Stapled Securities or Performance Rights that vest, those Stapled Securities or Performance Rights that would otherwise have vested will instead lapse or be forfeited (as applicable).

8.4 Power of the BWP Boards

  • (a) The BWP Boards will administer the Plan and may:

  • (i) delegate to any person for the period and on the terms it decides, the exercise of any of its powers or discretions under the Plan;

  • (iii) resolve conclusively all questions of fact or interpretation concerning the Plan and these rules and any dispute of any kind that arises under the Plan, including as to the interpretation of the Plan or any restrictions or other conditions relating to any Stapled Securities allocated under the Plan, and the decision of the BWP Boards is final and binding upon all persons;

20.4 Divestment of material business or subsidiary

  • (a) Where the BWP Stapled Group divests a business designated by the BWP Boards for this purpose as to the Stapled Securities held pursuant to the Plan (and any other entitlements or shares that may arise in relation to those Performance Rights). Without limiting the BWP Boards’ discretion such rules may include:

  • (i) varying the Condition applying to the Participant’s Performance Rights to exclude the value of the divested business (if applicable); and

  • (ii) deeming the Participant to remain a Group employee for a specific period.

  • (b) In order to bind a Participant, any special rules made under this rule 20.4 must be notified to a Participant pursuant to rule 8.6.

20.6 Bonus issues, rights issues and reconstruction

  • (a) Prior to the vesting of a Performance Right and the allocation of a Stapled Security to a Participant in accordance with rule 19.1, the BWP Boards may, in accordance with rule 20.6, make any adjustments it considers appropriate to the terms of the Performance Right granted to that Participant.

  • (b) Subject to the Listing Rules, if:

the number of Performance Rights to which each Participant is entitled, or any amount payable on exercise of the Performance Rights, or both as appropriate, may be adjusted in the manner determined by the BWP Boards, subject to any limitations under rule 2.1(a), to ensure that no advantage or disadvantage accrues to the Participant as a result of such corporate actions. To avoid any doubt, adjustments may be made retrospectively to a Performance Right exercised but for which no Stapled Security has yet been allocated.

  • (c) If any additional Performance Rights are granted to a Participant under rule 20.6(b), such Performance Rights will be subject to the same terms and conditions as the original Performance Rights granted to the Participant, including, without limitation, any Performance Conditions, unless the BWP Boards determines otherwise.
