The Boar d believes th a t this struc t ure is appr o priate for t h e following reasons:
-
the grant of Pe r formance R i ghts is in ac c ordance wi t h acceptable market pr a ctice;
-
the grant of Pe r formance Rights can ha v e minimal d ilutionary e ffect on the issued security capital of G DI Propert y Group;
-
the grant of Pe r formance R i ghts will re w ard Mr Gill a rd for his e x ertion and p erformanc e ; and
-
ves t ed Perfor m ance Right s can creat e recognisa b le value to executives, which wh e n granted un d er transpar e nt and robust performance conditions, contai n ing stretch elements, e nsure real Securityholder v alue creati o n.
Securityh o lders appr o ved the gra n t of perfor m ance rights to Mr Gillard under the Plan at the 2 014 and 2015 AG M s.
How man y Performance Rights will Mr Gillard receive?
The Boar d intends t o offer Mr G illard 1,16 8 ,594 of Pe r formance Rights to th e “value” of $803,250. These Performance Rights will be subject to t h e hurdles d e scribed bel o w.
The prop o sed size o f the grant t o Mr Gillard is 54% o f his Total Remuneratio n , consistent with the remuneration frame w ork as deta i led in the Remuneratio n Report for the year e n ded 30 Jun e 2016 and following a review by the Board o f Mr Gillard ’ s performa n ce for the y ear.

Vesting C o ndition
One of t h e reasons that GDI Property has i n troduced t h e Plan is n o t only to a t tract and reward key executive s , but to re t ain them a s well. Ther e fore the B o ard has resolved that a tenure ba s ed vesting condition is the most a ppropriate hurdle for c u rrent purp o ses.
Therefor e , subject to t he Perform a nce Condit i on being m e t, the Performance Rig h ts will vest p rovided Mr Gillar d remains e m ployed by G DI Property Group as 3 0 June 2019.
In limited circumstan c es, the Bo a rd in its ab s olute discr e tion may d e termine to vest the P e rformance Rights gr a nted to Mr Gillard eve n if the Vest i ng Condition is not me t (for exam p le, should M r Gillard’s employm e nt cease d u e to redundancy, death or disablem e nt).
Technical Information (for the purposes of the ASX Listing Rules)
Listing Ru l e 10.14 requires the approval of or d inary shareholders to i s sue securiti e s under an employee incentive s cheme to a Director of GDI Proper t y. Accordin g ly, approval for the gra n t of the Pe r formance Rights to Mr Gillard is required. A p proval of t h is resolutio n will result in the grant o f Performance Rights to Mr Gil l ard falling w ithin exception 14 in L i sting Rule 7 .2 (in addit i on to exce p tion 9, whi c h already applies). T herefore, the issue of St a pled Securi t ies to Mr Gi l lard will not be included in the 15% c alculation for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. The issue o f Stapled Se c urities in G D I Property G roup on the vesting of the Rights will also be excluded from Listing Ru l e 7.1.
