In accordance with Listing Rule 10.14, Charter Hall Group is seeking the approval of Securityholders for a proposed allocation of service rights to each of the Joint Managing Directors, at no cost to them, under the PROP. The allocation of service rights is the deferred portion of the FY15 STI for each of the Joint Managing Directors (equivalent to one third of their on-target award and 100% of their above-target award for FY15).

Details of proposed allocation of Service rights under the PROP

• 73,515 service rights to Mr David Southon; and

• 86,840 service rights to Mr David Harrison.

The basis of the quantum of the proposed issue of service rights is explained in paragraph (e).

(a) Nature of the service rights

If the resolutions in Item 4 are approved, the Joint Managing Directors will receive the service rights in lieu of receiving cash, for one third of their on-target award and 100% of their above-target award for FY15.

The only vesting condition is that the Joint Managing Director is employed by the Charter Hall Group on 30 August 2016 for 50% of the service rights, and on 30 August 2017 for the remaining 50% of the service rights, at which time each service right will convert into a Stapled Security.

(b) Date the service rights will be issued

If the resolutions in Item 4 are approved by Securityholders, the service rights are proposed to be issued in two tranches to Mr David Harrison and Mr David Southon as soon as practicable after the Meeting, but in any case, no later than 30 August 2016 for 50% of the service rights (the First Issue Date), and 30 August 2017 for the remaining 50% of the service rights (the Second Issue Date), and in any event, no later than three years after the date of the 2015 Annual General Meeting.

Each service right will convert into a fully paid Stapled Security on 30 August 2016 and 30 August 2017 respectively if the relevant vesting condition is met.

Details of the service rights to be issued will be published in each annual report for Charter Hall Group relating to the period in which the service rights have been issued, noting that approval for the issue of the service rights was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 10.14.

Any additional persons who become entitled to participate in the employee incentive scheme after the resolution is approved and who are not named in this notice of meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

If the resolutions in Item 4 are not approved by Securityholders, 50% of the deferred STI entitlement will vest on 1 July 2016, with a gross cash remuneration entitlement to be paid no later than 30 August 2016 as follows:

• $156,954 to Mr David Southon; and

• $185,402 to Mr David Harrison.

The remaining 50% of the deferred STI entitlement will vest on 1 July 2017, with a gross cash remuneration entitlement to be paid no later than 30 August 2017 as follows:

• $159,953 to Mr David Southon; and

November 2015 Notice of meeting / 11

Explanatory Memorandum

(c) Maximum number of service rights to be provided

The maximum number of service rights that may be awarded to a Joint Managing Director pursuant to the resolutions proposed in Item 4 is:

• 73,515 service rights to Mr David Southon; and

• 86,840 service rights to Mr David Harrison.

(d) Vesting conditions of service rights

If a Joint Managing Director ceases to be employed (i.e. a Joint Managing Director resigns or is terminated by summary dismissal) by the Charter Hall Group before 30 August 2016, the service rights or cash pay rights (depending on whether the resolutions in Item 4 were approved by Securityholders) would be forfeited. If a Joint Managing Director’s employment is terminated for any other reason before 30 August 2016, the service rights or cash pay rights (depending on whether the resolutions in Item 4 were approved by Securityholders) will vest.

If a Joint Managing Director ceases to be employed (i.e. a Joint Managing Director resigns or is terminated by summary dismissal) by the Charter Hall Group between 1 September 2016 and 30 August 2017, the second tranche (being the remaining 50%) of the service rights or cash pay rights (depending on whether the resolutions in Item 4 were approved by Securityholders) would be forfeited. If a Joint Managing Director’s employment is terminated by the Charter Hall Group for any other reason between 1 September 2016 and 30 August 2017, the second tranche (being the remaining 50%) of the service rights or cash pay rights will vest (depending on whether the resolutions in Item 4 were approved by Securityholders).

(e) Basis for the quantum of the proposed issue of service rights to the Joint Managing Directors

STI Overview

In respect of FY15 any STI amount is subject to achieving 95% or more of the target annual OEPS. STI payments for FY15 related to the Charter Hall Group achieving an OEPS which exceed the Group target in addition to achieving other financial targets.

Once the OEPS threshold is reached, individual performance against other objectives becomes the basis for determining what STI payments are to be made to individuals, if any.

The Board, in consultation with the Remuneration and Human Resources Committee, assessed the performance of the Joint Managing Directors against their individual performance measures established for FY15. The Board also retains the discretion to increase/decrease the STI amount available based on its assessment of overall performance.

Individual performance objectives for the Joint Managing Directors were based on a number of quantitative and qualitative measures under two main categories, as follows:

For Mr David Southon:

• Financial Measures comprised of the OEPS of Charter Hall Group, the property funds management margin and growth in operating earnings, weighted at 50%

• Non Financial Measures, comprised of:

• Partner measures weighted at 15%;

• People measures weighted at 25%; and

• Operational excellence measures weighted at 10%

For Mr David Harrison:

• Financial Measures comprised of the OEPS of Charter Hall Group, growth in funds under management, growth in operating earnings, and the property funds management margin, weighted at 50%.

• Non Financial Measures, comprised of:

• Partner measures weighted at 15%;

• People measures weighted at 25%; and

• Operational excellence measures weighted at 10%

These performance measures were selected as they establish a clear link between executive reward and Charter Hall Group performance.

FY15 STI achievement

The number of service rights that each Director will be allocated has been determined by dividing the value of the deferred portion of the Joint Managing Directors’ STI award for FY15 by the fair value of the service rights (i.e. $4.27) calculated as at 3 September 2015 (being the date of allocation) calculated as an average price for each tranche using the Black-Scholes-Merton model determined by the Board and based on a valuation report prepared by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu equating to 73,515 service rights to Mr David Southon and 86,840 service rights to Mr David Harrison.

(f) Other Matters

There are no loans to be granted by CHL or CHFML to either Joint Managing Director in relation to the acquisition of the service rights under the proposed grant in Item 4.

The PROP was first introduced in 2008.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires Securityholder approval for Directors to participate in an employee incentive scheme under which he or she acquires, or may in the future be entitled to acquire, securities. Consequently, Charter Hall Group is seeking approval of Securityholders for the proposed allocation of performance rights in respect of the financial year ending 30 June 2016, to Mr David Southon and Mr David Harrison (each, a Joint Managing Director) under the PROP.

Details of the proposed allocation of performance rights under the PROP

(a) Price of the performance rights

No amount is payable on the grant of an award of performance rights under the PROP. In addition, no amount is payable to exercise a performance right once it vests. Please refer to the information in paragraphs (d) and (e) below in relation to the relevant vesting conditions of performance rights.

If the applicable vesting service and performance conditions are met, a Joint Managing Director will be entitled to receive one fully paid Stapled Security in the Charter Hall Group in respect of each vested performance right (subject to adjustment in accordance with the Listing Rules in the event of a reorganisation of the issued ordinary share capital of CHL or issued unit capital of CHPT, or as otherwise contemplated by the PROP rules).

(b) Date the performance rights will be issued

If the resolutions in Item 5 are approved by Securityholders, the performance rights are proposed to be issued to each of Mr David Harrison and Mr David Southon as soon as practicable after the Meeting, but in any case, no later than twelve months after the date of the 2015 Annual General Meeting (the Issue Date).

(c) Maximum number of performance rights to be provided

Up until 1 July 2018, the maximum number of performance rights that may be acquired by each of the Joint Managing Directors pursuant to the resolutions proposed in Item 5, is 214,492 performance rights for Mr David Southon and 250,965 performance rights for Mr David Harrison based upon a valuation of $3.94 per performance right.

(d) Vesting conditions of performance rights

The vesting of performance rights under the PROP is subject to both service and performance conditions.

Subject to both the service and performance conditions, any FY16 LTI performance right issued on or after 1 July 2015 may vest on 1 July 2018. These rights cannot be exercised until after the release of the full FY18 results, and are also subject to a further twelve month holding lock.

The performance conditions are based on absolute and relative total shareholder return (TSR) hurdles in equal proportions as follows:

In respect of the financial year ending on 30 June 2016, Securityholder approval is sought for an allocation of 3 year performance rights as an LTI for each of the Joint Managing Directors, at no cost to them, at the relevant award or, should any vest, at that date. The remuneration mix for the Joint Managing Directors includes an amount for LTI as follows:

• 214,492 performance rights to Mr David Southon (equivalent to $845,095); and

• 250,965 performance rights to Mr David Harrison (equivalent to $988,800),

based upon an LTI 3 year aggregate prima-facie value measured at 1 July 2015 of $3.94 for each performance right for each of the Joint Managing Directors.

November 2015 Notice of meeting / 13

Explanatory Memorandum

Absolute TSR performance condition

The percentage of performance rights that may vest on 1 July 2018 if the TSR for the 3 years from 1 July 2015 falls between 10% and 13% per annum will be determined on a linear basis starting with 50% vesting at the lower end of the range, moving to 100% vesting at the top of the range.

Relative TSR performance condition

The percentage that may vest on 1 July 2018 if the total compounded return for the 3 years falls between the total compounded return of the S&P/ASX 200 A-REIT Accumulation Index (XPJAI) and 1.10 times the total compounded return of XPJAI, determined on a linear basis. Vesting starts at 50% at the lower end of the range moving to 100% that will vest at the top of the range.

50% of performance rights are subject to the absolute TSR measure and 50% are subject to the relative TSR measure.

Any performance rights that fail to vest on 1 July 2018 are forfeited.

The Board considered that TSR is an appropriate performance hurdle because it ensures that a proportion of each participant’s remuneration is linked to the market value of Charter Hall Group securities, ensuring that participants only receive a benefit where there is a corresponding direct benefit to Securityholders.

Absent any unusual circumstances where Board discretion ought to be exercised, in order to meet the service condition PROP participants must be employed by Charter Hall Group on the relevant vesting date of any performance right.

(e) Vesting period

For this proposed offer the absolute and relative return will be calculated over the three year period 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2018. The base price of Charter Hall Group’s securities for calculation of the total return is the VWAP for the month of July 2015, namely $4.64. If the performance conditions are met the rights will vest on 31 August 2018. Stapled Securities allocated on the automatic exercise of performance rights cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise dealt with until the end of the Restricted Period being 31 August 2019.

During the Restricted Period the employees will be entitled to vote and will receive distributions.

• (f) Basis for the quantum of the proposed issue of performance rights to the Joint Managing Directors

The Remuneration Framework of the Joint Managing Directors is described in the Remuneration Report section of the Annual Report. In summary, it comprises base pay and benefits (fixed remuneration), an STI and an LTI.

A Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model has been utilised to arrive at the fair value of an LTI right at the time of its award to the employee. A Monte Carlo simulation has been utilised to calculate the aggregate accounting expense. These figures have been determined, based on a valuation report prepared by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu.

As outlined in the Remuneration Report, the Board utilised the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model for the allocation of LTI awards.

(g) Securities held

The number of Stapled Securities, options and performance rights currently held by the Joint Managing Directors is contained in the Annual Report.

(h) Other matters

There are no loans to be granted by CHL or CHFML to either of the Joint Managing Directors in relation to the acquisition of the performance rights under the proposed grant in Item 5.

The PROP was first introduced in 2008.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires Securityholder approval for Directors to participate in an employee incentive scheme under which he or she acquires, or may in the future be entitled to acquire, securities. CHC Securityholders last approved an issue of performance rights and service rights under the PROP at the Annual General Meeting of Charter Hall Group held in November 2014. At the 2014 Annual General Meeting, Securityholders approved:

• the issue of 81,861 service rights (which represents FY14 deferred STI) and 210,730 performance rights (which represents FY15 LTI) to Mr David Southon, with a nil exercise price; and

• the issue of 95,504 service rights (which represents FY14 deferred STI) and 248,371 performance rights (which represents FY15 LTI) to Mr David Harrison, with a nil exercise price.

No amount was paid or payable on the issue of service rights and performance rights to Mr David Southon or Mr David Harrison which were approved at the 2014 Annual General Meeting. Apart from the Joint Managing Directors, no Directors or Associates of Directors are participants in the PROP or have been invited to participate in the PROP.

A voting exclusion statement applies to this resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

Recommendation

The Directors (other than Mr David Southon and Mr David Harrison) unanimously recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of the Item 5 resolutions.
