Resolution 5

Grant of Performance Rights to Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director Mr Andrew Hansen

Background

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval for the grant of Performance Rights to Mr Andrew Hansen, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director, as part of his overall remuneration in terms of an enhanced short term incentive for the financial year ending 30 June 2021. The Performance Rights which are the subject of this Resolution 5 will be issued pursuant to the Hansen Technologies Employee Performance Rights Plan (“Performance Rights Plan”) which was approved by Shareholders at the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting held on 23 November 2017 and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in these Explanatory Notes.

The grant of Performance Rights is considered an appropriate remuneration strategy to align the interests of Mr Andrew Hansen and the Company having regard to the Company’s strategic plan focusing on optimising performance, with the benefits of the remuneration strategy flowing through to enhanced Shareholder returns.

Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that the approval of an entity’s shareholders is required before certain persons, including a director of the entity can be issued securities under an employee incentive scheme. Mr Hansen is a director for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.14 and accordingly, Shareholder approval is being sought for the issue of Performance Rights to Mr Hansen.

Terms of Performance Rights

The Company proposes to issue 157,918 Performance Rights to Mr Hansen (being rights equal to the value of 50% of his total fixed remuneration), which will vest if the targeted performance measures are achieved. Mr Hansen also has the additional opportunity for a further 78,959 Performance Rights to vest to reward overachievement of targets. Therefore, the total number of Performance Rights to be issued under this Resolution 5 is 236,877. This number was set by the Board in the context of considering Mr Hansen’s overall remuneration package, of which the Performance Rights form a part.

The Performance Rights to be issued to Mr Hansen will be on terms consistent with the rules of the Hansen Technologies Employee Performance Rights Plan. A summary of the terms and conditions of the Performance Rights Plan was contained in Schedule 2 to the Explanatory Notes to the Notice of Meeting

4

for the November 2017 Annual General Meeting, and a full copy is available to Shareholders from the Company on request.

Pursuant to the terms of the Performance Rights Plan, no consideration is payable by Mr Hansen at the time of the issue of the Performance Rights or upon the allocation of Shares to which Mr Hansen may become entitled upon any Performance Rights vesting. Each Performance Right will entitle Mr Hansen to one Share in the capital of the Company, subject to satisfaction of the vesting conditions applicable to that Performance Rights.

Vesting Conditions of the Performance Rights

The Performance Rights the subject of this Resolution 5 will vest and convert into Shares subject to a 2 year deferral period if, over the measurement period (being 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021) (“ PRP Measurement Period ”), the performance measures set out below are achieved.

Budgeted Group Revenue (50% weighting)

Performance measures for up to 118,438 Performance Rights are based on achieving the Budgeted Group Revenue target as outlined below:

  • If between 93% - 97% of the target is achieved, the percentage of the relevant Performance Rights to vest is nil to 100% of the entitlement on a linear basis.

  • If greater than 98% and up to103% of the target is achieved, 100% of the relevant Performance Rights will vest.

  • If greater than 103% and up to110% of the target is achieved, between 100% to a maximum of 150% of the relevant Performance Rights will vest on a linear basis.

Budgeted Group EBITDA (50% weighting)

Performance measures for up to118,439 Performance Rights are based on achieving the Budgeted Group EBITDA target as outlined below:

  • If between 93% - 97% of the target is achieved, the percentage of the relevant Performance Rights to vest is nil to 100% of entitlement on a linear basis.

  • If greater than 98% and up to 103% of the target is achieved, 100% of the relevant Performance Rights to vest.

  • If greater than103% and up to 110% of the target is achieved, between100% to a maximum of 150% of the relevant Performance Rights to vest on a linear basis.

The values for the Budgeted Group Revenue and Budgeted Group EBITDA targets will be set by reference to the annual budget approved by the Board in advance of the relevant financial year to which the PRP Measurement Period relates, having regard to the prevailing economic, trading and global market conditions.

Continuing employment

Mr Hansen must remain in the employment of the Company until 1[st] July 2022 in order for any of the Performance Rights to vest.

Information required under Listing Rule 10.15

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5:

  • (c) Mr Hansen’s current total remuneration package comprises a salary component of $928,557 a cash performance based incentive of $321,429 and an Equity based incentive of $464,279. This is based on Mr. Hansen achieving 100% of the incentive. 50% of Mr Hansen’s cash based performance incentive is capped based on him achieving 100% of the measure with the remaining 50% increasing on a linear basis to a maximum of 150% of incentive when the measurement criteria is exceeded by 10%. A maximum cash performance based incentive of $464,279 could be paid.

  • (d) Since the Performance Rights Plan was last approved by the Shareholders, 578,115 Performance Rights have been issued to Mr Hansen, all of which were granted for nil consideration pursuant to the terms of the Performance Rights Plan.

  • (e) A summary of the material terms of the Performance Rights and the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Schedule 2 to the Notice.

  • (k) Details of any securities issued under the Performance Rights Plan will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which those securities were issued, along with a statement that approval for the relevant issued was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

  • (l) Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under the Performance Rights Plan after this Resolution 5 is obtained and who were not named in this Notice will not participate in such issue until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14 for such participation

  • (m) A voting exclusion statement in respect of Resolution 5 is set out below.

If Shareholder Approval is not obtained

6

If Shareholder approval is not obtained for this Resolution 5, the Board intends to grant Mr Hansen additional cash remuneration in lieu of the Performance Rights, subject to the same vesting conditions being achieved.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

The proposed grant of Performance Rights under Resolution 5 to Mr Hansen involves giving a financial benefit to a Related Party for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act. Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits the Company from giving a financial benefit to a Related Party of the Company unless either:

  • (a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provisions; or

  • (b) prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.

The Directors believe that the grant of Performance Rights is appropriate and reasonable in all circumstances, as part of the remuneration for Mr Hansen’s role as the Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director. Therefore, the Company considers that the grant of the Performance Rights comes within one of the exceptions to Chapter 2E, and Shareholder approval is not required for that purpose.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors (with the exception of Mr Hansen) recommend that Shareholders approve Resolution 5.

Voting Exclusion

The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 5 by or on behalf of:

  • (a) a person referred to in ASX Listing Rules 10.14.1, 10.14.2 or 10.14.3 who is eligible to participate in the Performance Rights Plan; or

  • (b) an associate of that person.

However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast in favour of Resolution 5 by:

  • (a) a person as a proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the Resolution, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the Resolution; or

  • (b) the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on th Resolution, in accordance with the direction given to the Chairman to vote on the Resolution as the Chairman decides; or

  • (c) a holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met:

  • (i) the beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting, on the Resolution; and

  • (ii) the holder votes on the Resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

A member of the key management personnel or a closely related party of a member of key management personnel may not vote as a proxy on Resolution 5 if their appointment does not specify the way the proxy is to vote. However, this voting exclusion does not apply if the member of key management personnel is the Chairman of the Meeting acting as proxy and their appointment expressly authorises the Chairman of the Meeting to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel.

7

Resolution 6

Re-Approval of Performance Rights Plan

Background

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)), Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the re-adoption of the Performance Rights Plan, which was previously adopted by Shareholders on 23 November 2017 ( Prior Approval ).

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will continue to be able to issue Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years from the date of approval without impacting on the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder approval in any 12 month period.

Any future issues of Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan to a related party of the Company or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained will require additional Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.

Listing Rule 7.1

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period. Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) sets out an exception to Listing Rule 7.1, which provides that issues under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of securities under the employee incentive scheme, subject to the relevant notice of meeting including certain information.

Information Required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b))

Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) requires the following information to be provided to Shareholders:

  • (a) A summary of the material terms of the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Schedule 2.

  • (b) The number of securities issued under the Performance Rights Plan since the date of the Prior Approval is 2,180,813

  • (c) The maximum number of equity securities proposed to be issued under the Performance Rights Plan following approval of this Resolution 6 (should approval be obtained) is 8,000,000.

  • (d) A voting exclusion statement in respect of Resolution 6 is set out below.

Directors’ Recommendation

As the Directors of the Company are excluded from voting on this Resolution pursuant to the Listing Rules (being eligible to participate in the Performance Rights Plan), they make no recommendation to the Shareholders in respect of this Resolution 6.

Voting Exclusion Statement

The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 6 by or on behalf of:

8

  • (a) a person who is eligible to participate in the Performance Rights Plan; or

  • (b) an associate of that person.

However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast in favour of Resolution 6 by:

  • (a) a person as a proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the Resolution, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the Resolution; or

  • (b) the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the Resolution, in accordance with the direction given to the Chairman to vote on the Resolution as the Chairman decides; or

  • (c) a holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met:

  • (i) the beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting, on the Resolution; and

  • (ii) the holder votes on the Resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Resolution 7

Replacement of Company Constitution

General

The Company is currently governed by its existing Constitution which it has had in place since 2010. Section 136 of the Corporations Act allows a company to:

  • (a) adopt a new constitution after registration; and

  • (b) modify or repeal its constitution,

by passing a special resolution. Accordingly, this Resolution 7, which seeks Shareholder approval to repeal the existing Constitution and adopt a new constitution ( Proposed Constitution ), is proposed as a special resolution. A special resolution requires 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and voting at the Meeting to be cast in favour in order to pass.

Background

As part of its regular review of its operations, the Company has identified the need to update its existing Constitution in order to permit the Company to streamline its administration, minimise costs and improve methods of communicating with Shareholders.

The Company now seeks to repeal the existing Constitution and adopt the Proposed Constitution, which incorporates:

  • (a) recent regulatory and technological updates, such as the operation of a new two-tier escrow regime and permitting the Company to utilise various electronic platforms and tools to hold and conduct shareholder meetings;

  • (b) amendments to the Corporations Act and Listing Rules since the time that the current Constitution was adopted;

9

(c) developments in corporate governance,

as well as generally updating the Constitution in keeping with market standards and with provisions of constitutions customary to ASX-listed entities.

A copy of the Proposed Constitution is available for review by Shareholder at www.hansencx.com/investorrelations/ and at the offices of the Company. Shareholders are encouraged to read the Proposed Constitution in its entirety as the summary below is not intended to be an exhaustive comparison between the constitutions. A copy of the Proposed Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary on +61 3 9840 3000. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns in relation to the Proposed Constitution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board retains the discretion to decide that the exercise of a Performance Right will be satisfied by payment in cash to the Participant.

  • (iii) the Participant ceasing to be an employee (other than due to the occurrence of total and permanent disablement, death, retirement, redundancy (“ Special Circumstances ”))

  • (l) Immediate Vesting : Participants will be entitled to make a request to the Board to determine that all existing Performance Rights vest immediately in the event:

  • (i) the Court sanctions a compromise or arrangement under Part 5.1 of the Corporations Act, for the purposes of or in connection with, a scheme of reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies, which, if implemented, would result in a change in control of the Company; or
