ENTITLEMENT TO ATTEND AND VOTE

In accordance with regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), the Board has determined that persons who are registered holders of shares of the Company as at 7:00pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 9 November 2021 (being two days before date of the Meeting) will be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM as a shareholder.

If more than one joint holder of shares is present at the AGM (whether personally, by proxy or by attorney or by representative) and tenders a vote, only the vote of the joint holder whose name appears first on the register will be counted.

Appointment of Proxy

If you are a shareholder entitled to attend and vote, you may appoint an individual or a body corporate as a proxy. If a body corporate is appointed as a proxy, that body corporate must ensure that it appoints a corporate representative in accordance with section 250D of the Act to exercise its powers as proxy at the AGM.

A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

A shareholder may appoint up to two proxies and specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy may exercise. If the shareholder does not specify the proportion or number of votes to be exercised, each proxy may exercise half of the shareholder’s votes.

To be effective, the proxy must be received at the Share Registry of the Company no later than 10:00am (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 9 November 2021 (48 hours before AGM). Proxies must be received before that time by one of the following methods:

Online (preferred): www.linkmarketservices.com.au By post: GTN Limited C/- Link Market Services Limited Locked Bag A14 Sydney South NSW 1235 Australia By facsimile: (02) 9287 0309 (within Australia) +61 2 9287 0309 (from outside Australia) By hand: Link Market Services Limited Level 12 680 George Street Sydney NSW 2000 during business hours Monday to Friday (9:00am – 5:00pm) and subject to public health orders and restrictions

To be valid, a proxy form must be received by the Company in the manner stipulated above. The Company reserves the right to declare invalid any proxy not received in this manner.

Power of Attorney

A proxy form and the original power of attorney (if any) under which the proxy form is signed (or a certified copy of that power of attorney or other authority) must be received by the Company no later than 10:00am (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 9 November 2021, being 48 hours before the AGM.

Corporate Representatives

A body corporate which is a shareholder, or which has been appointed as a proxy, is entitled to appoint any person to act as its representative at the AGM. The appointment of the representative must comply with the requirements under section 250D of the Act. The representative must ensure that Link receives a properly executed letter or other document confirming its authority to act as the company’s representative prior to the Meeting. A “Certificate of Appointment of Corporate Representative” form may be obtained from the Company’s share registry or online at www.linkmarketservices.com.au

Page 5 of 17

IMPORTANT: If you appoint the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy, or the Chair becomes your proxy by default, and you do not direct your proxy how to vote on resolutions 2 and 3 then by submitting the proxy form you will be expressly authorising the Chair to exercise your proxy on the relevant resolution, even though the resolutions are connected, directly or indirectly, with the remuneration of the KMP.

Voting at the Meeting

It is intended that voting on each of the proposed resolutions at this Meeting will be conducted by a poll, rather than on a show of hands.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of shareholders of the Company ( Shareholders ) in relation to the business to be conducted at the Company’s AGM to be held at 10:00am (Sydney time) on Thursday, 11 November 2021.

The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide Shareholders with information that is reasonably required by Shareholders to decide how to vote upon the resolutions. Subject to any abstentions noted below, the Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of all Resolutions. The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of each resolution.

Resolutions 1, 3 and 4 are ordinary resolutions, which require a simple majority of votes cast by Shareholders present and entitled to vote on the resolution. Resolution 2, relating to the Remuneration Report, is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Resolution 1: Re-Election of Director – Robert Loewenthal

Robert Loewenthal was appointed an independent Non-executive Director of GTN on 18 April 2016 and acted as Chair (including on an interim basis) from February 2017 until January 2021 when Peter Tonagh was elected Chair.

Rob was re-elected as a Director by shareholders at the 2016 and 2018 AGMs. ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a Director must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment. Therefore, in accordance with article 10.3(b)(iii) of the Constitution, Rob Lowenthal retires from office at the conclusion of the AGM and is eligible for re-election as a Director of the Company. If shareholders do not approve the re-election of Robert as a Director then Robert will cease to be a Director at the conclusion of the Meeting.

Prior to Rob’s appointment as a Director in 2016, the Company completed several background and screening checks with no adverse findings.

The Board has considered whether Rob had any interest or position of relationship that may interfere with his independence as a Director, having regard to the relevant factors as set out in the 4[th] edition of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations ( ASX Principles ). The Board considers that Rob Lowenthal (if re-elected), will continue to be an independent director.

Rob is a member of each of the GTN Audit and Risk Committee and the GTN Nomination and Remuneration Committee.

Rob has over 15 years of experience in the radio industry. He currently operates private corporate advisory and consulting business, Free Trade Hall, and is the Founder of the Whooshkaa Audio Technology and Podcasting Platform.

Rob formerly held the role of Managing Director of Macquarie Radio Network, where he had previously acted as Chief Operating Officer and Company Secretary.

Rob is a Chartered Accountant and holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from The University of Sydney.

Prior to submitting himself for re-election, Rob has confirmed that he would continue to have sufficient time to properly fulfil his duties and responsibilities to the Company.

The Board supports the re-election of Rob as he will contribute to the Board his significant experience in the areas of finance and risk and compliance and his deep listed public company experience.

Board Recommendation

The Directors, with Robert Loewenthal abstaining, unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Page 7 of 17

Resolution 2. Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Act requires that the section of the Directors' Report dealing with the remuneration of directors and KMP of the Company ( Remuneration Report ) be put to the vote of shareholders for adoption by way of a non-binding vote.

Shareholders can view the full Remuneration Report in the 2021 Annual Report which is available on GTN’s website at http://www.gtnetwork.com.au/investor-centre/?page=reports.

Broadly, the Remuneration Report details the remuneration policy for the Company and:

  • explains the structure of and rationale behind the Company’s remuneration practices and the link between the remuneration of executives and the Company’s performance;

  • sets out remuneration details for each Director and for each executive with authority and responsibility for directing the affairs of the Company; and

  • discusses the relationship between the policy and Company performance.

Following consideration of the Remuneration Report, the Chair of the Meeting will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report. A resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted will then be put to the vote. The vote on this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into account in setting remuneration policy for future years.

Board Recommendation

Due to each Director having an interest in the outcome of Resolution 2, and for good governance, the Directors refrain from making a recommendation to Shareholders.

Note – The Chair of the Annual General Meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3. Issue of Options under the GTN Long Term Incentive Plan – William Yde

This resolution deals with the proposed grant of options ( Options ) to Mr William (Bill) Yde, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director to acquire fully paid ordinary shares in the Company ( Shares ) under the GTN Long-Term Incentive Plan ( Plan ).

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining shareholder approval, to grant 1,000,000 Options to Mr Yde under the terms and conditions of the Plan. This award represents Mr Yde’s long term incentive remuneration for the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.

The ASX Listing Rules ( Listing Rules ) and the Act set out a number of regulatory requirements which must be satisfied. These are summarised below:

ASX Listing Rule 10.14

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires shareholder approval by ordinary resolution before any of the following persons can be issued under a listed entity’s employee incentive scheme:

  • a director;

  • an associate of a director; or

  • a person whose relationship with the listed entity, or the entity’s directors or their associates is such that, in the ASX’s opinion, the acquisition of securities should be approved by shareholders.

Page 8 of 17

As Mr Yde is a Director of GTN, Resolution 3 seeks shareholder approval for the issue of 1,000,000 Options to Mr Yde under GTN’s long term incentive plan. Specific details of the proposed issue are set out below.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Options to Mr Yde on the terms and conditions as set out in this Notice. If shareholder approval is given under Listing Rule 10.14, shareholder approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1. Therefore, the issue to Mr Yde of the Options, and the issue of Shares on vesting of the Options, will not be included in the 15% calculation for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Shareholders do not approve Resolution 3, the proposed issue of 1,000,000 Options to Mr Yde will not proceed, and the Board may need to consider alternative remuneration arrangements. The Board considers it is important for GTN to offer incentives to its directors and executives that are in line with market practice so that it can drive executive performance, attract and retain the right talent and align Mr Yde’s interests with those of shareholders. In addition, the ASX Principles notes that equity-based remuneration can be an effective form of remuneration for executives.

As described further below, the Board intends to grant Mr Yde 1,000,000 Options. The Options will vest on the vesting dates to the extent that the Board determines that the vesting conditions are satisfied. The exercise price of the Options will be calculated using the Company’s closing price on the day of the AGM (being 11 November 2021).

Vesting Conditions

The Options are divided into two tranches as follows:

  • up to 333,333 Options (being 1/3 of the maximum proposed grant) will vest if Mr Yde remains employed by the Company on the second anniversary of the grant date, expected to be on or about 12 November 2023; and

  • up to 666,667 Options (being 2/3 of the maximum proposed grant) will vest if Mr Yde remains employed by the Company on the third anniversary of the grant date, expected to be on or about 12 November 2024.

This would mean that Mr Yde would be eligible to receive up to a maximum of 1,000,000 Shares in respect of both tranches of Options if the employment conditions are met.

The Options will vest and be exercisable on the date that the employment condition is achieved. If the employment condition is not achieved, all of the Options in that tranche will lapse. The vesting of the Options is not subject to any performance hurdles. Whilst option grants without performance hurdles are uncommon in Australia, they are common practice in the US. As Mr Yde is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director and is a US citizen and taxpayer, it is appropriate that the vesting conditions are those employment conditions as set out above.

The Options will be granted to Mr Yde for nil financial consideration as they form part of Mr Yde’s remuneration.

The exercise price of the Options will be calculated using the Company’s closing price on the day of shareholder approval. If Resolution 3 is passed, the Options will be granted to Mr Yde on or about 12 November 2021.

Page 9 of 17

Additional terms of the Options:

  1. Options do not carry any voting rights or right to dividend prior to exercise.

  2. The Company’s obligation to allocate Shares on exercise of the Options may be satisfied by issuing new shares, procuring the transfer to, or procuring the setting aside for the participant the number of shares in respect of which Options have vested. The Board can also exercise its discretion to make a cash payment (an amount equivalent to the value of the Options that have vested) to a participant in lieu of an allocation of Shares.

  3. In the event there is any corporate action by, or capital reconstruction in relation to the Company (including but not limited to return of capital), adjustments may be made to the number of Options and/or the number of Shares each participant is entitled to upon exercise in accordance with the Listing Rules or in a manner which the Board considers appropriate.

  4. In the event of cessation of employment, unvested Options will lapse, except in certain circumstances permitted under the Plan.

  5. Under the Plan Rules, any dealing in respect of an Option is prohibited, unless the Board determines otherwise or the dealing is required by law. Mr Yde will be free to deal with the Shares allocated on exercise of the Options (following payment of the exercise price), subject to the requirements of GTN’s securities trading policy.

Of the Company’s Directors, only Mr Yde (the sole Executive Director) is eligible to participate in the Plan. Non-Executive Directors are not eligible to participate.

Allocation of Shares following Vesting

If the employment condition for each tranche of Options is satisfied, the relevant Options will vest. Upon vesting, Mr Yde will generally obtain the right to acquire the Shares represented by the Options upon payment of the exercise price on each Option and then will be allocated the relevant number of Shares on a one-for-one basis, being one Share for each Option that vests. Options may be satisfied in either Shares or an equivalent value cash payment may be made in lieu of an allocation of Shares (calculated in accordance with the Plan Rules) as determined appropriate by the Board. Any Shares allocated to Mr Yde may be acquired on-market or issued by the Company. It is the Board’s current intention that any Shares allocated to Mr Yde on the vesting of Options will be issued by the Company.

Additional Information for the purpose of the ASX Listing Rules

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the following additional information is provided for shareholders:

  1. Mr William (Bill) Yde is the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of the Company, and accordingly, shareholder approval for Mr Yde to acquire equity securities under an employee incentive scheme is required;

  2. The proposed number of Options (and subsequently, the number of Shares) that may be acquired by Mr Yde under the GTN Plan and for which shareholder approval is sought is 1,000,000 Options. The Options may convert to Shares on a one-for-one basis subject to the achievement of the vesting conditions.

  3. Mr Yde’s total remuneration package for FY2021 comprised:

  4. a fixed base salary of A$1,095,669 plus a cash stipend of A$32,111 (United States based executive management receive cash stipends in lieu of the provision of health insurance and similar employee benefits) based on the exchange rates for FY 2021 as Mr. Yde is paid in USD;

  5. A$208,414 variable short-term incentive (bonus); and

  6. o 1,000,000 Options issued under the GTN Plan.

Further information regarding the remuneration of Mr Yde are set out in the Company’s Remuneration Report which forms part of the 2021 Annual Report.

Page 10 of 17

  1. The following securities have been previously issued to Mr Yde and remain outstanding under GTN’s Plan:

  2. 333,333 Options over Shares exercisable at $0.42 on or before 12 November 2022; and

  3. 666,667 Options over Shares exercisable at $0.42 on or before 12 November 2023,

  4. The Options are not quoted on the ASX and carry no voting or dividend rights. Shares issued on the exercise of the Options will rank equally with ordinary shares on issue. Options are considered by the Board to be an appropriate equity security under GTN’s Plan as vesting of those Options link directly to vesting conditions to be satisfied before fully paid ordinary shares are issued.

The fair value of the options will be estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. See the 2021 Remuneration Report for further details about the assumptions used for previous grants. The valuation method used for the proposed grant is based on the assumptions used for previous grants. The number of options to be granted to Mr Yde is at the discretion of the Board based on the assumptions set out in the 2021 Annual Report. The fair value of the options cannot be determined until the date of grant.

  1. The Options will be issued to Mr Yde on or about the date of the AGM, but in any event no later than 3 years after the date of the Meeting.

  2. The issue price for the Options is nil and the exercise price for each Option (which will be the closing price of a Share on the day of the AGM) is payable by Mr Yde for a Share on the vesting and exercise of an Option.

  3. A summary of the material terms of GTN’s employee incentive scheme are set out in Attachment A.

  4. No loans will be made in relation to the acquisition of the Options or Shares by Mr Yde.

  5. Details of any securities issued under GTN’s long term incentive scheme will be published in GTN’s Annual Report relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Any additional persons covered by ASX Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under GTN long term incentive scheme after this Resolution 3 is approved and who are not approved and who are not named in the Notice will not participate until approval is obtained.

  6. A Voting Exclusion Statement is set out under Resolution 3 in the Notice of Meeting.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 imposes a 15% cap on the number of equity securities that can be issued by GTN without the approval of shareholders in any rolling twelve-month period. However, GTN is permitted to issue shares (or other securities) in excess of the 15% limit if those shares or securities are issued in reliance on an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or the issue is approved by shareholders.

Resolution 3, if passed, will provide approval for this purpose in relation to the Options and any Shares issue on vesting of those Options. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.14, approval is not required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, in accordance with Exception 14 in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.

Board Recommendation

The Directors consider that the award of Options to Mr Yde is in the best interests of GTN and therefore unanimously recommend (with Mr Yde abstaining from making a recommendation), that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 3.

Resolution 4. Renewal of proportional takeover provisions in the Constitution

Articles 6.8 to 6.12 of the Constitution (set out in Schedule 1) provide that the Company can prohibit the registration of a transfer of shares resulting from a proportional takeover bid unless Shareholders approve the proportional takeover bid. Under the Act and article 6.13 of the Constitution, articles 6.8 to 6.12 cease to have effect on the day three years after the later of either their adoption or last renewal. These proportional takeover provisions were adopted on 1 June 2016 and renewed at the 2018 AGM, so are due to lapse on 8 November 2021. Resolution 4 seeks to renew articles 6.8 to 6.12 of the Constitution for three years from the day Resolution 4 is passed.

The Directors consider that the inclusion of the proportional takeover provisions in the Constitution is in the interests of Shareholders.

What is a proportional takeover bid?

In a proportional takeover bid, the bidder offers to buy a proportion only of each shareholder’s shares in the target company.

Why are the proportional takeover provisions required?

The Directors consider that Shareholders should continue to have the opportunity to approve any proportional takeover bid for the Company.

A proportional takeover bid means that control of a company may pass without its shareholders having the chance to sell all of their shares to the bidder. Shareholders, therefore, may be exposed to the risk of being left as a minority of the Company and the bidder taking control of the Company without paying an adequate premium for gaining control.

The Directors also consider that the proportional takeover provisions may avoid Shareholders feeling pressured to accept a proportional takeover bid even if they do not want it to succeed.

In order to deal with this possibility, the Act permits a company, in certain circumstances to provide in its constitution that if a proportional takeover bid is made for shares in the company, shareholders must decide whether to accept or reject the proportional takeover bid.

The benefit of the provision is that shareholders are able to decide collectively whether the proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle and it may ensure that any proportional takeover bid is appropriately priced.

If the proportional takeover bid does proceed, individual Shareholders can then make a separate decision as to whether they wish to accept the offer for their shares.

What is the effect of the proportional takeover provisions?

If the proportional takeover provisions are renewed and a proportional takeover bid is made, the Directors will be required to seek the approval of Shareholders for that proportional takeover bid at least 14 days before the last day of the bid period. The vote is decided on a simple majority.

Each Shareholder who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under the proportional takeover bid was made, held bid class securities, is entitled to vote, but the bidder and its associates are not allowed to vote (and if they do vote, their votes must not be counted).

If the resolution is not passed, transfers which would have resulted from the acceptance of a proportional takeover bid will not be registered and the proportional takeover bid will be taken to have been withdrawn. Any contracts formed by acceptances will be rescinded. If the resolution is approved (or taken to have been approved), the transfers must be registered provided they comply with the Act and the Constitution.

Page 12 of 17

The proportional takeover bid will be taken to have been approved if the resolution is not considered within the 14 day deadline specified in the Act. However, the Directors will breach the Act if they fail to ensure the resolution is considered.

The proportional takeover provisions to not apply to full takeover bids and will only apply for a period of three years commencing on the day Resolution 4 is passed unless again renewed by a special resolution passed by Shareholders.

Potential advantages and disadvantages

While the renewal of articles 6.8 to 6.12 will allow the Directors to ascertain Shareholders’ views on a proportional takeover bid, the Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages to the Directors who remain free to make a recommendation on whether a proportional takeover bid should be accepted.

The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:

  • that Shareholders (other than the bidder and its associates) have an opportunity to consider a proportional takeover bid which may assist in ensuring that the proportional takeover bid is attractive to a majority of Shareholders;

  • the provisions may discourage the making of a proportional takeover bid which may be considered to be opportunistic and may prevent control of the Company passing without the payment of an appropriate control premium;

  • the provisions may assist Shareholders avoid being locked into a minority interest in the Company;

  • the provisions may increase Shareholders’ bargaining power and may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is appropriately priced; and

  • knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders may assist each individual Shareholder assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid and whether to accept or reject that bid.

The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:

  • may discourage proportional takeover bids and may reduce any speculative element in the market price of the Company’s shares arising from a proportional takeover bid being made;

  • Shareholders may lose an opportunity of selling some of their shares at a premium;

  • may reduce the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid being successful; and

  • the renewal of articles 6.8 to 6.12 may also be considered an additional restriction on the ability of Shareholders to deal freely with their shares.

The Directors consider that the potential advantages for Shareholders of the proportional takeover provisions outweigh the potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions.

Review of advantages and disadvantages

There have been no full or proportional takeover bids for the Company while the proportional takeover provisions have been in operation. Accordingly, there is no example against which the advantages or disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions may be assessed. However, the Directors believe that the potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions operating for the next there years outweigh the possible disadvantages.

No present acquisition proposals

As at the date this Notice of Meeting was prepared, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

Board Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 4.

SCHEDULE 1

Extract from the GTN Limited (ACN 606 841 801) Constitution

6.8 Resolution required for proportional takeover provisions

Despite articles 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3, if offers are made under a proportional takeover bid for securities of the Company in accordance with the Corporations Act:

  • (a) articles 6.8 to 6.12 apply;

  • (b) the registration of a transfer giving effect to a takeover contract resulting from acceptance of an offer made under the takeover bid is prohibited unless and until a resolution (an “approving resolution”) to approve the bid is passed or taken to be passed in accordance with article 6.11 or article 6.12; and

  • (c) the Directors must ensure that an approving resolution is voted on in accordance with articles 6.9 to 6.10 before the fourteenth day before the last day of the bid period.

6.9 Procedure for resolution

The Directors may determine whether the approving resolution is voted on:

  • (a) at a meeting of persons entitled to vote on the resolution convened and conducted, subject to the provisions of article 6.10, as if it were a general meeting of the Company convened and conducted in accordance with this Constitution and the Corporations Act with such modifications as the Directors determine the circumstances require; or

  • (b) by means of a postal ballot conducted in accordance with the following procedure:

  • (i) a notice of postal ballot and ballot paper must be sent to all persons entitled to vote on the resolution not less than 14 days before the date specified in the notice for closing of the postal ballot, or such lesser period as the Directors determine the circumstances require;

  • (ii) the non-receipt of a notice of postal ballot or ballot paper by, or the accidental omission to give a notice of postal ballot or ballot paper to, a person entitled to receive them does not invalidate the postal ballot or any resolution passed under the postal ballot;

  • (iii) the notice of postal ballot must contain the text of the resolution and the date for closing of the ballot and may contain any other information the Directors consider appropriate;

  • (iv) each ballot paper must specify the name of the person entitled to vote;

Each person who is entitled to vote is entitled to one vote for each bid class security held by that person at that time.

Neither the bidder nor any associate of the bidder is entitled to vote on the resolution.

6.11 Resolution passed or rejected

If the resolution is voted on in accordance with articles 6.8 to 6.10, then it is taken to have been passed if the proportion that the number of votes in favour of the resolution bears to the total number of votes on the resolution is greater than one- half, and otherwise is to be taken to have been rejected.

6.12 Resolution taken as passed

If a resolution to approve the bid has not been voted on as at the end of the day before the fourteenth day before the last day of the offer period, then a resolution to approve the bid is taken to have been passed in accordance with articles 6.9 to 6.11.

ATTACHMENT A

A summary of the key terms of the GTN long term incentive plan are as follows:

Where applicable, defined terms have the same meaning as provided in GTN’s long term incentive plan rules as available on the ASX (refer to announcement on 01/06/2016).

Plan overview The Board may, from time to time, in its absolute discretion, make or cause to be
made invitations to eligible persons to participate in the LTI Plan and make offers
of options to those eligible persons.
Eligibility Offers may be made at the Board’s discretion to employees of GTN or any other
person that the Board determined to be eligible to receive an LTI Plan grant.
Grant of Options An option is a right to acquire a Share for payment of an exercise price at the end
of the performance period, subject to meeting specified vesting conditions.
Exercise Price The Exercise Price of an option will be set out in the offer for each particular grant.
The Exercise Price may be zero.
Exercise Period
and Expiry Date
The Exercise Period means the period during which an Option can be exercised
being the period commencing on the Vesting Date (or such later date specified in
an invitation) and ending on the Expiry Date.
The Expiry Date means the last date on which an Option may be exercised as set
out in the invitation.
The Exercise Period and Expiry Date of an option will be set out in the offer for
each particular grant.
Vested options may be exercised without paying the Exercise Price to the
Company by electing to undertake a cashless exercise in accordance with rule
6.3 of the LTI Plan in which case the number of shares delivered on exercise will
be adjusted as set out in that rule.
Vesting
Condition
and
Vesting Date
Options granted under the LTI Plan may be subject to a condition which must be
satisfied or waived before that Option becomes vested (Vesting Condition). Any
vesting conditions will be set out in the offer for each particular grant.
The Vesting Date means the date on which the Vesting Condition in relation to
an Option must be satisfied or waived or such earlier date on which the Option
vests in accordance with the accelerated vesting circumstances stipulated in the
LTI Plan.
Rights
associated with
options
Options will not carry any voting rights or right to dividends. If the Options vest
and are exercised, the Shares delivered to the option holder will have all the same
rights as other Shares.
Restrictions
of
dealing
The LTI Plan participant must not sell, transfer, encumber, hedge or otherwise
deal with options granted under the LTI Plan, unless the Board in its absolute
discretion approves the dealing because of force of law or death or legal
incapacity.
The participant will be free to deal with the shares allocated on exercise of vested
Options (following payment of the exercise price), subject to the requirements of
GTN’s Securities Trading Policy.

Page 16 of 17

Cessation
of
employment
Any unvested Options granted under the LTI Plan will be forfeited where the
participant resigns or is dismissed prior to the Options vesting. However, if a
participant is dismissed without cause e.g. redundancy, or dies or becomes totally
and permanently disabled or is otherwise determined by the Board to be treated
as a Good Leaver, their unvested Options will vest or remain on foot.
Change
of
control
If an Event (as defined in the LTI Plan) occurs, the Board may determine that all
or a portion of the participant’s Options will automatically become Vested Options.
If this occurs, the Board may also amend the Exercise Period and Expiry Date.
Historically the Board has agreed in the terms of each grant that it will
automatically vest all of a participant’s Options if an Event occurs.
