Subject to the requirements of the Tax Act, Subdivision 83A-C of the Tax Act applies to the Options Scheme.

16. One Option one Share

Subject to adjustment under Rules 4.6 and 21.4, each Option confers on its holder the right to acquire one Share by way of issue or transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion).

17. Vesting of Options

17.1 Vesting

  • (a) Subject to Rule 17.2, unless the terms upon which an Option have been issued provide otherwise, Options which have not lapsed in accordance with Rule 19 and have not been forfeited in accordance with Rule 14 will vest in accordance with the Vesting Conditions specified in the relevant Offer.

  • (b) The Plan Committee may, at its discretion, by notice to the Participant, vary, reduce or waive the Vesting Conditions attaching to Options in whole or in part at any time and in any particular case including due to an Accelerated Vesting Event.

17.2 Eligible Employee at Vesting Date

Unless the terms upon which an Option has been issued provide otherwise, or the Plan Committee determines otherwise due to the occurrence of a Special Circumstance, an Option may not be exercised (including automatic exercise) unless the Participant is an Employee as at the Vesting Date.

18. Exercise of Options

18.1 Exercise of Vested Options

All Vested Options may be exercised during the Exercise Period. The Plan Committee can specify in an Offer that Vested Options will be automatically exercised.

18.4 Clearance of Exercise Price

The Company is not obliged to issue Shares on exercise of Options until any cheque received in payment of the Exercise Price has been honoured on presentation. Where an Exercise Price of nil is specified in the Offer, the Exercise Price is deemed to have been paid.

Subject to these Rules, on the exercise of an Option the Company must:

  • (b) issue and allot a Share.

  • (a) Unless otherwise specified in the Vesting Conditions or determined otherwise by the Plan Committee, an Option (whether Vested or Unvested) lapses on the earlier of:

  • (i) the Expiry Date of the relevant Option (if any); and

  • (ii) a determination of the Plan Committee that the Option should lapse because the Participant or its Nominating Employee, in the Plan Committee's opinion:

    • (A) has been dismissed or removed from office for a reason which entitles a Group Company to dismiss the Participant or its Nominating Employee without notice;

    • (B) has committed an act of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct in relation to the affairs of that Group Company (whether or not charged with an offence); or

    • (C) has done an act which brings the Group or any Group Company into disrepute.

  • (b) Where a Participant's or its Nominating Employee's employment ceases due to the resignation of that Participant or Nominating Employee:

  • (i) all Unvested Options will lapse on the date on which the Participant or Nominating Employee ceases employment by way of resignation; and

  • (ii) where Options are not automatically exercised, all Options which are Vested are retained by the Participant, unless the Plan Committee determines otherwise.

19.2 Options cease

If an Option lapses, all rights of a Participant under the Plan in respect of that Option cease and no consideration will be payable for or in relation to that lapse.

Minter Ellison | Ref: 1300325 ME_176820569_3

Employee Incentive Plan Rules | page 15

20. Dealings with Options

20.1 Options personal

Except where Options have been transferred with the prior written consent of the Plan Committee, Options held by a Participant are personal to the Participant and may not be exercised by any other person.

20.2 No unauthorised disposal

Except with the prior written consent of the Plan Committee and subject to these Rules, a Participant must not Deal with an Option or any interest in an Option (or purport to do any of those things), and any Dealing will not be recognised in any manner by the Company.

21. Participation rights, bonus issues, rights issues, reorganisations of capital and winding up

21.1 New issues and recapitalisations

Participants are not entitled to participate, in their capacity as Option holders, in any new issue of securities in the Company, nor in any return of capital, buyback or other distribution or payment to Shareholders, unless the Plan Committee determines otherwise.

21.2 Winding up

If a resolution for a members' voluntary winding up of the Company is proposed (except for the purpose of a reconstruction or amalgamation) the Plan Committee may, in its absolute discretion, give written notice to Participants of the proposed resolution. The Participants may, during the period referred to in the notice, exercise their Options (whether Vested or Unvested). However, an Option cannot be exercised under this Rule 21.2 after the period referred to in the notice.

21.3 Fractions of Shares

For the purposes of this Rule 21, if Options are exercised simultaneously, then the Participant may aggregate the number of Shares or fractions of Shares for which the Participant is entitled to subscribe. Fractions in the aggregate number only will be disregarded in determining the total entitlement of a Participant.

21.4 Calculations and adjustments

Any calculations or adjustments which are required to be made under this Rule 21 will be made by the Plan Committee and, in the absence of manifest error, are final and conclusive and binding on the Company and the Participant.

21.5 Notice of change

The Company must within a reasonable period give each Participant notice of any change under the Rules to the number of Shares that the Participant may subscribe for on exercise of an Option.

Part D – Provisions applicable to Shares Scheme

22. Specific conditions for Shares Scheme

22.1 Shares Scheme Conditions

The Company must not impose any conditions on any Shares issued on acceptance of an Shares Scheme Offer if the conditions would have the effect of, or could result in, the Participant forfeiting ownership of the Shares issued to them.
