Invitation from the Chairman

Paul Reynolds – Chairman
We would like to invite you to our 2025 Annual General Meeting to be held at 10.00 am (Melbourne time) on Thursday 13 November 2025.
Dear Shareholder,
I am delighted we will be holding our AGM at our global headquarters at Yarra Falls in Abbotsford, Victoria. We also understand that, for many of our shareholders, the ability to attend our AGM online is very welcome and that option is again available for shareholders using Computershare’s online meeting platform.
Items of business
The items of business to be considered at the AGM include resolutions to consider the re-election of Tiffany Fuller as well as the adoption of the remuneration report, which you can read from pages 26 to 46 of our Annual Report. There is also a resolution to approve a proposed equity award grant to our Chief Executive Officer Stuart Irving under our long-term incentive plan.
Details of the resolutions are included in this Notice of Meeting. Your Board recommends that you vote in favour of all resolutions.
Year in review
Our strategy is to build a simpler, focused, capital light Computershare that delivers consistent results and enduring returns to shareholders. We’ve brought this to life by exiting non-core businesses such as US Mortgage Services and focusing primarily on the development of our three core businesses of Issuer Services, Corporate Trust, and Employee Share Plans.
A strong positive cash flow and balance sheet have allowed us to invest in new technologies and markets, making significant improvements in the products and services we offer clients, shareholders, employees and customers. Highlights include completing the rollout of EquatePlus in North America, our feature-rich employee share plan platform, delivering extensive new digital platforms for seamless customer service in Issuer Services and continuing to execute on our Corporate Trust growth and integration program.
A strong financial position
We believe Computershare’s financial results for FY25 reflect the improving value we offer clients and our strategic investments. Management Earnings Per Share (EPS) – a key measure of our profitability – rose 15% to 135 cents per share for the year, a record performance.
Each of Computershare’s core businesses grew its revenue and earnings, driven by higher recurring client fees and transactional revenues. Computershare’s more than 12,000 employees helped make this a reality, using their unmatched expertise, experience and flexible approach to facilitate dynamic partnerships with over 25,000 clients during the year.

Rewarding our investors
We have maintained our tradition of rewarding those who have invested in Computershare’s success by delivering over $600 million in proceeds used to fund increased dividends and complete our AU$750 million share buy-back program, a 17% increase from FY24.
We were also proud to deliver a final dividend of AU 48 cents per share, bringing the total dividend for the year to AU 93 cents, a 14.3% increase on the year before.
We continue to balance rewarding shareholders with investing in growth. Computershare’s strong balance sheet provides ongoing flexibility to fund selective acquisitions, investments in technology and organic expansion, along with returns to shareholders.
Focusing on our impact
Computershare is determined to have a positive impact on the environment, our people and broader communities through our Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives. We have continued to work hard to do the right thing, and you can read more about our initiatives in our 2025 Sustainability Report.
Building on our momentum in FY26
We are expecting FY26 to be another year of positive earnings growth, with Management EPS expected to be around 140 cents per share, a further increase of around 4%. Continuing to deliver innovative solutions that our clients can rely upon and becoming more efficient through ongoing digitisation and the roll-out of new technologies will help us achieve this.
Lower interest rates are expected to reduce margin income in FY26, however we benefit from the business’s natural hedge in improving transaction activity and client balances. Lower rates – and lower levels of overall debt – also lead to reduced debt funding costs.
It has been my great privilege to work with the Board, CEO Stuart Irving and Computershare’s fantastic, dedicated team of people who delivered time and again for customers and shareholders over the past year. I thank them all and especially you, our shareholders, for your ongoing investment in our success.

Item 3 – Remuneration report
Shareholders are asked to adopt the Company’s Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2025. The Remuneration Report is set out on pages 26 to 46 of the Company’s 2025 Annual Report.
Computershare’s remuneration strategy is designed to provide a link between the achievement of the Company’s strategic objectives and executive reward. It is designed to reward, motivate and retain the Company’s executive team with market competitive remuneration and benefits, to support the continued success of the Company’s businesses and the creation of long-term shareholder value.
The Remuneration Report sets out, in detail, the Company’s policy for determining remuneration for Directors and Senior Executives. It includes information on the elements of remuneration that are performance-based, the performance conditions that apply, and the methodology used to assess the achievement of these performance conditions.
The vote on resolution 3 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, a reasonable opportunity for discussion of the Remuneration Report will be provided at the Annual General Meeting. The Board will take into account the discussion on this resolution and the outcome of the vote when considering the future remuneration arrangements of the Company.
We trust that the 2025 Remuneration Report explains our remuneration strategy in the context of the markets in which we compete for our executive talent, how the elements of our remuneration are intended to underpin our long-term strategies and how our Group performance dictates executive remuneration outcomes and provides alignment with shareholders.

-
› By the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy for a person entitled to vote and the Chairman has received express authority to vote undirected proxies as the Chairman sees fit.

-
› rTSR – 40%
-
› Management Earnings per Share (excluding Margin Income) – 30%
-
› Adjusted Return on Invested Capital – 30%
The three measures are designed to complement each other in driving long-term value creation while collectively reflecting Computershare’s reward principles of fairness, alignment, simplicity and risk management.

fy26 ltI grant of Performance Rights
Each performance right granted under the LTI Plan entitles the CEO to one fully paid ordinary share in Computershare (or an equivalent cash amount) subject to the satisfaction of the performance conditions described below, over a three-year performance period. Until the performance hurdles are achieved and the performance rights vest, the CEO has no legal or beneficial interest in Computershare shares as a result of the grant of performance rights, and no entitlement to receive dividends and no voting rights in relation to the performance rights.
The total number of performance rights to be granted to the CEO is 100,741. This number was determined by dividing AA$4,043,442 (being the CEO’s FY26 LTI opportunity translated into AUD) by A$40.137 (being the volume-weighted average price of Computershare shares over the five trading days following the release of the Company’s FY25 results on 12 August 2025).
The grant of performance rights to the CEO will be tested against the following performance hurdles:
rTSR Hurdle – 40% of FY26 LTI plan award
TSR calculates the return shareholders would earn if they held a notional number of shares over a period of time and measures the change in the Company’s share price together with the value of dividends during the period, assuming that all those dividends are reinvested into new shares.
The Company’s TSR performance is tested relative to the TSR performance of the companies within the ASX 100 index at the start of the performance period. The comparator group may be adjusted to take into account events during the performance period including, but not limited to takeovers, mergers, de-mergers or de-listings. The performance period is 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2028.
The percentage of performance rights that are subject to the rTSR hurdle that vest will be determined by the Board with reference to the percentile ranking achieved by the Company over the relevant performance period, compared to the other entities in the comparator group, as follows:
==> picture [510 x 19] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
rtSR ranking against peer group Performance Rights subject to rtSR hurdle that vest (%)
----- End of picture text -----
| At or above the 75th percentile | 100% |
|---|---|
| Between the 50thto 75thpercentile | Progressive pro rata vesting between 50% to 100% |
| (i.e. on a straight line basis) | |
| Equal to the 50th percentile | 50% |
| Below the 50th percentile | 0% |
The Board retains the discretion to adjust the rTSR performance hurdle to ensure there is no material advantage or disadvantage due to matters outside management’s control that materially affect TSR performance.
Management EPS ex Margin Income (MI) hurdle – 30% of FY26 LTI plan award
The percentage of performance rights subject to the EPS ex MI hurdle that vest will be determined by the Board with reference to the average annual growth in management EPS excluding Margin Income (calculated on a constant currency basis) across the performance period, being 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2028 as follows:
==> picture [510 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

| Between threshold % and maximum % | Between 5% and 10% | Progressive pro rata vesting between 50% to 100% |
| (i.e. on a straight line basis) | ||
| Threshold % | 5% | 50% |
| Less than the threshold % | Less than 5% | 0% |
8 Computershare Notice of Meeting 2025
Setting management EPS ex MI as a performance hurdle under the LTI plan incentivises management to deliver growth in the underlying business without the impact on Margin Income that may arise from interest rate changes that occur over the performance period. Margin Income will also remain a material determinant of performance under the LTI plan as it impacts overall shareholder returns and is also captured in the return on invested capital hurdle outlined below. Management EPS ex MI will be calculated by reference to the management adjusted results set out in the Company’s published results subject to Board discretion to exclude or include additional adjustments for LTI purposes to ensure no unfair benefit or detriment arises.
When calculating management EPS ex MI for the purposes of the LTI plan, the Company also excludes interest expense (to provide balance with the margin income exclusion) and will not take into account the impact of any buy-back on the number of shares on issue, such that the shares used to determine management EPS ex MI each year are held constant over the performance period.
The management EPS ex MI hurdle will be calculated on a constant currency basis. Constant currency means the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on group earnings is eliminated. The Board considers the use of constant currency in assessing performance against the management EPS ex MI hurdle is the better approach, as it provides a correlation between management performance and remuneration outcomes and avoids unintended windfall gains and losses by virtue of currency movements.
Average annual Adjusted Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) hurdle – 30% of FY26 LTI plan award
Adjusted ROIC is intended to incentivise management to improve and grow earnings, including through earnings accretive investments, while at the same time ensuring growth is achieved with capital discipline.
Adjusted ROIC will be calculated by dividing management EBIT (post tax) by Invested Capital (comprising net debt plus equity plus cumulative management adjusted cash costs associated with restructuring programs and acquisition integrations). This will ensure that the integration-related expenses from acquisitions will be appropriately recognised as a use of capital, as well as other below-the-line expenses such as the investments made in delivering restructuring and cost-out programs (which are one-off and non-recurring).
The percentage of performance rights subject to the Adjusted ROIC hurdle that vest will be determined by the Board with reference to the rolling average ROIC achieved by the Company across the performance period, being 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2028 as follows:
==> picture [510 x 19] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
Average annual Adjusted ROIC over the performance period Performance Rights subject to Adjusted ROIC that vest (%)
----- End of picture text -----
| Maximum % or above | 28% orgreater | 100% |
|---|---|---|
| Between threshold % and maximum % | Between 26% and 28% | Progressive pro rata vesting between 50% to 100% |
| (i.e. on a straight line basis) | ||
| Threshold % | 26% | 50% |
| Less than the threshold % | Less than 26% | 0% |
The threshold and maximum Adjusted ROIC targets for the FY26 LTI plan are around 17% higher than the Adjusted ROIC targets in the FY25 LTI plan of 22% to 24% and around 60% higher than the targets in the FY24 LTI plan of 16% to 17.5%. They are also more than 135% higher than the Adjusted ROIC targets in the FY22 LTI plan when this measure was first introduced.
The FY26 LTI Adjusted ROIC target range has been set by the Board having regard to the group’s stated long term target of 25+% ROIC (subject to M&A activity and not including cumulative management adjusted cash costs associated with restructuring programs and acquisition integrations) as well as the medium term interest rate outlook. Cumulative management adjusted cash costs associated with restructuring programs and acquisition integrations impacted ROIC by around 500 basis points as at the end of FY2025.

approval requested
Approval is requested under the ASX Listing Rules to enable the Company to grant equity securities to the CEO (as a director of the Company) under an employee incentive scheme.
The grant of performance rights to the CEO forms part of the CEO’s overall remuneration and will be granted at no cost to the CEO. No amount is payable on vesting of the performance rights.
The performance rights will be granted under and subject to the rules of the LTI Plan. If shareholder approval is obtained, the performance rights will be granted to the CEO shortly after the meeting and, in any event, no later than 12 months after the date of the meeting.
Performance rights are non-transferable, except in limited circumstances or with the consent of the Board. Subject to compliance with the Computershare Securities Trading Policy, shares allocated to the CEO on vesting of any performance rights will not be subject to any further trading restrictions.
Ceo’s current remuneration package
The CEO’s current remuneration package is as follows:
| Fixed | £1,176,187 |
|---|---|
| STI opportunity | 100% of fxed remuneration at target, 150% of fxed remuneration at maximum |
| LTI opportunity | 172% of fxed remuneration on a face value basis |
This constitutes a 2% increase on the CEO’s FY25 remuneration.
treatment of performance rights on cessation of employment
If the CEO ceases employment before the end of the performance period as a ‘good leaver’, the default position is that unvested awards will continue in force subject to the terms of the Plan. The unvested awards will then be tested against the performance conditions and vest (as appropriate) unless the Board determines otherwise in its sole and absolute discretion, the manner in which the unvested performance rights will be dealt with, including but not limited to allowing only some of the awards to continue to be held by the CEO, and be subject to the existing conditions (except any service condition) or requiring that some or all the performance rights lapse.
Where the CEO ceases employment as a ‘bad leaver’, unless the Board in its sole and absolute discretion determines otherwise, any unvested performance rights will lapse.
Change of control
Where a change of control event occurs prior to vesting of the performance rights, subject to the Board’s discretion to determine otherwise, all conditions on these awards will cease to apply, and the unvested performance rights will vest. All restrictions on the disposal of any of these awards will cease to apply to the extent necessary to allow the CEO to sell into the change of control event.
Clawback
In the event that the CEO engages in certain conduct such as that which involves fraud, dishonesty or a material misstatement of or omission from the financial statements, the Board may make a determination as to the treatment of awards, including lapsing unvested awards, or clawing back vested shares or the proceeds from the sale of vested shares, to ensure that no unfair benefit is obtained by the CEO.
Board discretion
The Board expressly reserves its discretion to adjust performance hurdles as may be appropriate in accordance with the Board approved business case should Computershare undertake a material transaction. This is to ensure that the LTI remains an appropriate incentive (and not a disincentive) to management to undertake transactions that are in the long term interests of shareholders. The Board’s discretion will also include the ability to decide that the impact of the material transaction and associated costs be excluded from the calculation of Management EPS ex MI and/or ROIC for the purposes of the LTI. This could include, without limiting the Board’s discretion, where the transaction occurs in the last year of the performance period and a full year’s earnings would not be recognised by Computershare while all capital expended and transaction costs were recognised.
10 Computershare Notice of Meeting 2025
outcome if shareholder approval is not obtained
If shareholder approval is not obtained, the proposed grant of performance rights to the CEO will not proceed. This may impact Computershare’s ability to incentivise the CEO, to align his interests with those of shareholders and to align his remuneration arrangements with the remuneration arrangements of Computershare’s other senior executives. In these circumstances, the Board intends to approve the provision of an equivalent benefit in cash (including the same performance conditions and period).
other information
In relation to the LTI Plan:
-
› The CEO is the only director entitled to participate in the LTI Plan.
-
› The total number of securities that have previously been issued to the CEO under the LTI plan since it was introduced in 2014 is 1,539,450 performance rights and 367,406 share appreciation rights for nil consideration.

Important information for shareholders
Who can vote at the aGM?
To vote at the AGM, you must be a registered holder of Computershare shares as at 7.00 pm (Melbourne time) on Tuesday, 11 November 2025. The number of shares you hold at that time determines your voting entitlement. Restrictions apply to the eligibility of certain people to vote on particular items of business. Computershare has set out the applicable voting exclusions against each relevant item of business in this notice of meeting.
how will voting be conducted?
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to call a poll, to be conducted by electronic means, on each resolution.
How do I register my online attendance on the day of
the aGM?
Online registration will open from 9am on (Melbourne time) on Thursday, 13 November 2025. We ask that shareholders and proxyholders log in at least 15 minutes prior to the meeting.
To make the registration process quicker, please have your SRN/HIN and registered postcode or country code ready. Proxyholders will need to contact the call centre on +61 3 9415 4024 prior to the AGM to obtain their login details.
I have a power of attorney from a shareholder – how do
I vote?
An original or certified copy of the power of attorney under which you are authorised to attend and vote at the meeting must be provided to Computershare’s Share Registry prior to the AGM (unless you or the shareholder has previously lodged this paperwork with Computershare’s Share Registry).
I am a corporate shareholder – how can I attend and vote?
Corporate shareholders and corporate proxies may appoint a representative in accordance with the Corporations Act. Computershare will require a certificate appointing the corporate representative. A form of certificate may be obtained from the Company’s share registry. The certificate must be lodged with the Company before the AGM.
What if my proxy is a KMP of Computershare or a closely related party of the KMP?
If you appoint as your proxy any director of Computershare, except the Chairman of the Meeting, or any other KMP or any of their closely related parties, and you do not direct your proxy how to vote on either Item 3 or 4, he or she will not vote your proxy on those items of business.
Can I appoint the Chairman of the meeting as my proxy?
Yes, you can appoint the Chairman of the meeting as your proxy. If you appoint the Chairman of the meeting as your proxy, or the Chairman of the meeting is appointed as your proxy by default, and you do not mark the voting boxes on the voting form for Items 3 and 4, then by completing and submitting the voting form you are expressly authorising the Chairman of the meeting to exercise your proxy as he sees fit in relation to those resolutions, even though they are connected with the remuneration of Computershare’s KMP. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of each item of business.
Can I lodge a direct vote before the meeting?
If you are a shareholder, you may also deliver a direct vote by indicating on the voting form that you are casting your vote directly and then placing a mark in one of the boxes opposite each item of business on the voting form.
All of your shares will be voted in accordance with such direction, unless you indicate that your direction is to vote only a portion of your votes on any item or to cast your votes in different ways on any item, by inserting the number of shares in the appropriate box or boxes.
If you indicate that you are lodging your votes directly and then do not mark any of the boxes on a given item, no direct votes will be recorded on that item. If you indicate that you are delivering your votes directly and then mark more than one box on an item, your vote on that item will be invalid.
If you insert a number of shares in boxes on any item that, in total, exceed the number of shares that you hold as at the voting entitlement time, your vote on that item will be invalid, unless you inserted the number of shares in one box only, in which case it will be taken to be valid for the total number of shares held at that time.
You can lodge your direct vote in the same way as a proxy – refer to “When and how do I lodge a proxy?”.
technical difficulties
Technical difficulties may arise during the course of the AGM. The Chairman has discretion as to whether and how the meeting should proceed in the event that a technical difficulty arises. In exercising his discretion, the Chairman will have regard to the number of shareholders impacted and the extent to which participation in the business of the meeting is affected.
Where he considers it appropriate, the Chairman may continue to hold the meeting and transact business, including conducting a poll and voting in accordance with valid proxy instructions. For this reason, shareholders are encouraged to lodge a proxy by 10.00 am (Melbourne time) on Tuesday, 11 November 2025, even if they plan to attend online.
