Item 6: Approval of acquisition of securities by the Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Dr Malcolm Parmenter, under the Short Term Incentive Plan and the Primary Health Care Rights Plan

  • 6.1 The Short Term Incentive Plan ( STIP ) and the Primary Health Care Rights Plan ( LTIP ) (together, the Incentive Plan ) were adopted by the Board in 2016. As part of his executive remuneration arrangements, Dr Malcolm Parmenter, the Company’s Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer ( CEO ), is eligible to receive Rights under the Company’s STIP and LTIP. A Right is a right to acquire an ordinary share in the capital of the Company ( Share ), subject to meeting certain service-related vesting conditions (in the case of Service Rights ) or performance-related vesting conditions (in the case of Performance Rights ). The Board may also elect to deliver the value of the Right in the form of cash, or combination of Shares and cash.

  • 6.2 Further details of the STIP and the LTIP appear in Attachment A to this Notice of Meeting.

  • 6.3 Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, the Company must seek shareholder approval to grant securities in the Company to a Director of the Company, including the CEO, under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, shareholder approval is being sought to enable the Company to grant Rights to the CEO, and subsequently issue Shares to the CEO on the vesting of those Rights.

  • 6.4 If approval is granted, the types of securities the Company currently anticipates issuing to Dr Parmenter during the 1 year term of the approval are:

  • (a) Service Rights, as the 25% equity component of any STI Award relating to FY 2019 (if any such Award is granted by the Board);

  • (b) Performance Rights, as the 100% equity component of any LTI Award relating to FY 2019 (if any such Award is granted by the Board; note that these Rights would be tested after the end of the FY 2019 – FY 2021 measurement period); and

  • (c) Shares, on the vesting of the first tranche of Service Rights relating to Dr Parmenter’s FY 2018 STI Award (those Service Rights having been issued in 2018, based on the approval given by shareholders at the 2017 AGM), if the vesting criteria for those Service Rights are met.

Information for shareholders required under ASX Listing Rules

  • 6.5 ASX Listing Rule 10.15 requires the following information to be included in this Notice of Meeting:

  • (a) The maximum number of securities which may be acquired by the CEO, including the formula (if one is used) for calculating the number of securities to be issued

Two types of awards are granted under the STIP and LTIP:

  • short term incentive awards ( STI Awards ), which may be paid in the form of cash, equity (Service Rights) or a combination of both; and

  • long term incentive awards ( LTI Awards ) which are paid in the form of equity (Performance Rights).

  • (i) Maximum number of securities to be acquired under the STIP The STI Awards to be awarded to the CEO under the STIP comprise a 75% cash component and a 25% equity component, to be granted in the form of Service Rights.

It is proposed that the maximum number of Service Rights to be granted to the CEO in a given year will be calculated as follows:

Base Package X Maximum STI Proportion X STI Equity Proportion

Rights Value

where:

Base Package means base salary of CEO in the relevant financial year (inclusive of superannuation, allowances, benefits and any applicable fringe benefits tax).

8

Maximum STI Proportion means 58.3%, which represents the value of the STI Award which may be granted in a particular year as a proportion of the CEO’s Base Package, assuming each of the CEO’s Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are achieved in the relevant financial year at Target level. If a Stretch KPI is achieved, the Maximum STI Proportion is adjusted. The maximum such adjustment possible in relation to STI Awards for FY 2018 would have been +7% (to 65.3% of Base Package), however no Stretch KPIs were met and so no such adjustment was applied.

STI Equity Proportion means 25%, which represents the proportion of the STI Award that will be paid in the form of Service Rights.

Rights Value means:

  • (a) the standard volume weighted average price ( VWAP ) for the Company’s shares for the 10 trading days following the announcement of the Company’s full year financial results of the financial year to which the STI Award relates (for example, the calculation in respect of an STI Award for FY 2018 would be made in the 10 day trading period following the release of the FY 2018 results); less

  • (b) the expected value of dividends on a Share over the applicable vesting period of the Service Rights (described in paragraph (iii) below).

(STI Formula)

  • (ii) Maximum number of securities to be acquired under the LTIP

LTI Awards are granted entirely in the form of Performance Rights.

It is proposed that the maximum number of Performance Rights to be granted to the CEO under the LTIP in a given year will be calculated as follows:

Base Package X Maximum LTI Proportion

Rights Value

where:

Base Package means base salary of CEO in the relevant financial year (inclusive of superannuation, allowances, benefits and any applicable fringe benefits tax).

Maximum LTI Proportion means 116.6%, which represents the maximum value of the LTI Award (assuming achievement of Stretch goals) which may be granted in a given year as a proportion of the CEO’s Base Package.

Rights Value means:

  • (a) the standard volume weighted average price ( VWAP ) for the Company’s shares for the 10 trading days following the most recent announcement of the Company’s financial results at the time of the LTI offer, or as otherwise determined by the Board; less

  • (b) the expected value of dividends on a Share over the applicable measurement period of the Performance Rights (described in paragraph (iii) below).

(LTI Formula)

  • (iii) Acquisition of Shares on vesting of Rights

On vesting of a Service Right or Performance Right, the CEO will be entitled to receive one ordinary share in the capital of the Company ( Share ). The Board may also determine to deliver the value of the Rights in the form of cash, or a combination of Shares and cash.

In respect of Service Rights granted to the CEO under the STIP, 50% of such Rights will vest one year from the date of grant, and the other 50% will vest two years from the date of grant (subject in each case, to the CEO remaining employed by the Primary Group at the end of the applicable vesting period, unless the Board determines otherwise). In respect of Performance Rights granted under the LTIP, the applicable measurement period is 3 years, commencing at the start of the financial year to which the grant relates. Determination of vesting will occur following the end of the measurement period, having regard to the extent to which vesting conditions have been satisfied.

In respect of LTI Awards made to the CEO, 50% of the Performance Rights will be subject to a vesting condition based on the Company’s relative Total Shareholder Return ( rTSR ) ( rTSR Performance Rights ), while the other 50% will be subject to a vesting condition based on Return on Invested Capital ( ROIC ) ( ROIC Performance Rights ).

rTSR is assessed over the relevant measurement period by comparing the Company’s Total Shareholder Return ( TSR ) with the TSRs of a comparator group of companies listed on the ASX. TSR is based on share price movements on ASX plus distributions paid in respect of those shares. The rTSR Performance Rights are assessed on a vesting scale with Target and Stretch levels, such that:

– no rTSR Performance Rights will vest unless the Company’s rTSR over the measurement period exceeds the Target outcome established by the Board;

  • 50% of the rTSR Performance Rights will vest if the Target outcome is achieved; and

  • 100% of the rTSR Performance Rights will vest if the Stretch outcome is achieved or exceeded.

Vesting of the rTSR Performance Rights occurs on a straight line basis if outcomes are achieved between Target and Stretch.

The comparator group used for assessment of rTSR Performance Rights appears on page 70 of the Company’s 2018 Annual Report.

The rTSR performance criteria set by the Board, which are to apply to LTI Awards relating to FY 2019 (as well as to LTI Awards since FY 2016), appear on page 57 of the Company’s 2018 Annual Report.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

ROIC is calculated using underlying Earnings Before Interest and Tax ( EBIT ) as a percentage of average invested capital. The ROIC Performance Rights are assessed on a vesting scale with Threshold, Target and Stretch levels, such that:

  • no ROIC Performance Rights will vest unless the Company’s average ROIC over the measurement period exceeds the Threshold outcome established by the Board;

  • 25% of the ROIC Performance Rights will vest if the Threshold outcome is achieved;

  • 50% of the ROIC Performance Rights will vest if the Target outcome is achieved; and

  • 100% of the ROIC Performance Rights will vest if the Stretch outcome is achieved or exceeded.

ATTACHMENT A

Part A – Summary of key terms of Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP)

Purpose The purpose of the short term incentive (STI) is to create a strong link between performance and reward
by providing a variable/at risk element of executive remuneration that focuses on performance, generally over
a period of one year.
Eligibility Senior executivesare eligible to participate in the STIP. These comprise the CEO, other Key Management
Personnel (as defned in the Corporations Act) who hold executive roles, other direct reports to the CEO,
and other persons selected by the Board.
Non-executive Directors are not eligible to participate in the STIP.
Form of STI Awards may be paid in the form of cash, equity (which may include Shares, Rights, options or other
awards securities), or a combination of both.
A Right is a right to acquire a Share. Rights can take the form of:
Service Rights, which, once issued, are subject to the relevant participant remaining employed by the
Company for a predetermined period; at the end of that period the Service Rights vest and one ordinary
Share is issued for each vested Right; and
Performance Rights, which, once issued, are subject to various performance hurdles being met by
the Company over a predetermined measurement period. At the end of the measurement period, if the
performance hurdles have been met, the Performance Rights vest and one ordinary Share is issued for
each vested Right. If the performance hurdles have not been met the Rights lapse and no Shares are
issued.
Rights do not attract dividends or distributions and voting rights in respect of Shares, until the Right vests
and Shares are allocated to the holder upon vesting.
As at the date of this Notice of Meeting, the 25% equity portion of each STI Award is entirely composed
of Service Rights.
The portion of an award that would be paid in the form of cash, and which is not subject to deferral, may be
reduced in accordance with the application of salary sacrifce arrangements entered into by the participant.
Deferral The Board may determine, as part of an offer, that part of an STI Award will be deferred for a specifed period
(which may be subject to conditions such as length of service). This may occur by making part of any cash
payment under the STI Award at a future date or dates.
If equity is provided in relation to deferred STI Awards, the deferral may take the form of a service based vesting
condition, a disposal restriction (i.e. such that the Shares allocated on vesting are subject to certain restrictions
on disposal), or both.
The STI Awards granted for FY 2018 comprised a 75% cash component and a 25% equity component (which
was granted in the form of Service Rights). Half of those Services Rights are deferred for one year (meaning
they vest one year after the end of FY 2018), and the other half of those Services Rights are deferred for 2
years (meaning they vest two years after the end of FY 2018), in each case subject to the participant remaining
employed by the Primary Group at the end of the applicable vesting period (unless the Board determines
otherwise).
Criteria for STI Whether any STI Award is made in relation to a given fnancial year (and, if made, the amount of the award)
assessment depends on the extent to which the relevant participant has met their performance criteria or Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs).
Each KPI is allocated a weighting for each fnancial year that relates to the Target level of performance and
reward. The weightings and nature of the KPIs may change from measurement period to measurement period.
In FY 2018, the KPIs used for the STI Awards included:
�Underlying Net Proft After Tax (NPAT) of the Primary Group as a whole;
�NPAT of the business division of which the relevant participant is a member;
�fnancial targets, including Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT), operating cash fow (OCF) and capital
expenditure of the particular State (within the business division) where the relevant participant is located;
�various role-specifc KPIs assigned to the relevant participant in relation to the fnancial year; and
�various behavioural KPIs assigned to the relevant participant in relation to the fnancial year.
KPIs can be in the nature of binary goals (where the potential result is either achieved or not achieved),
a maximum goal (where the potential result for that KPI may be anywhere from zero up to the maximum goal),
or scalable goals where potential results may be presented as a range (i.e. Threshold, Target and Stretch).
The calibration of performance conditions for an STI Award (including the vesting scales applied by the
Board) may differ from year to year.
In addition to the above criteria, all STI Awards are subject to a post-hoc quality of earnings test, the nature
and application of which are at the Board’s absolute discretion.

of the measurement period and taking into account performance up to the date of the Change of Control; or
�continue the STIP but make interim non-refundable pro-rata awards based on the completed proportion of
the measurement period and taking into account performance up to the date of the Change of Control; or
�allow the STIP to continue.
Amendment The Board may amend or terminate the STIP at any time provided that the rights of participants to awards
earned prior to the amendment or termination are not affected, unless otherwise agreed in writing by
the participants.

Part B – Summary of key terms of Primary Health Care Rights Plan (LTIP)

Purpose The purpose of the LTIP is to create a strong link between performance and reward by providing a variable/at
risk element of executive remuneration that focuses on performance and/or service over a period of generally
three or more years.
Eligibility Senior executivesare eligible to participate in the LTIP. These comprise the CEO, other Key Management
Personnel (as defned in the Corporations Act) who hold executive roles, other direct reports to the CEO,
and other persons selected by the Board.
Non-executive Directors are not eligible to participate in the LTIP.
Form of Under the LTIP, awards can be made in the form of “Rights”.
awards A Right is a right to acquire a Share. Rights can take the form of Service Rights or Performance Rights,
as described in Part A.
As at the date of this Notice of Meeting, all Rights issued under the LTIP are Performance Rights.
The Board may also issue “Deferred Rights” which are fully vested at grant and automatically exercised 90 days
after the date of their grant.
A grant of Rights under the LTIP is subject to both the LTIP Rules and the terms of the specifc grant.
Vesting and When a Performance Right or Services Right vests, it is automatically exercised, that is, for each Right that
Exercise vests, the Company issues one Ordinary Share to the relevant participant.
On exercise of a Right, the Board may determine in its absolute discretion whether to deliver the value of
the Right in the form of Shares (either through a new issue or on market acquisition), cash or a combination
of Shares and cash.
Each Right will be granted for nil monetary consideration and will not have an exercise price.
No Shares acquired by participants on exercise may be disposed of if to do so would breach the Company’s
share trading policy or insider trading prohibitions. In addition, Shares allocated on vesting of Rights may
be subject to specifed disposal restrictions (as set out in the terms of the relevant award) which prevent the
acquired Share being disposed of for a specifed period following acquisition.
Vesting Determination of vesting will occur following the end of a measurement period, having regard to the extent
Conditions to which vesting conditions have been satisfed. Vesting conditions may relate to:
�service of the participant – i.e. their continued employment with the Company; or
�performance of the Company or an aspect of the Company’s operations or the participant; or
�any combination of the foregoing determined by the Board for each tranche.
The measurement period for grants of Rights under the LTIP will be three years (commencing on the frst day
of the fnancial year to which the grant relates), unless otherwise determined by the Board. For any LTI Awards
made in respect of FY 2019, the measurement period will be FY 2019 – FY 2021 inclusive.
Performance conditions may vary between different awards or tranches of awards.
Retesting No retesting is available in relation to LTI Awards made in relation to FY 2019.
Vesting scales The Board may determine a number of vesting outcomes via the use of a Target performance outcome,
a Stretch performance outcome, and if appropriate, a Threshold performance outcome.
Stretch represents an outstanding level of performance, which will be aligned with a maximum award
opportunity for a particular performance metric. Pro rata awards will apply for performance that falls between
Target and Stretch, and Threshold and Target. Below Threshold, no rights will vest.
Under the LTIP, the Board retains discretion to increase or decrease, including to nil, the vesting percentage
in relation to each tranche of Performance Rights if it forms the view that it is appropriate to do so. In exercising
this discretion, the Board will take into account (among other things), the Company’s performance from the
perspective of shareholders over the relevant measurement period.
Lapse and If Rights in a tranche have not vested and there is no opportunity for those Rights to vest at a later date,
transferability they will lapse.
Other than in limited circumstances, Rights may not be disposed of, transferred or otherwise dealt with,
and lapse immediately on a purported disposal, transfer or dealing.

14

Termination of If a participant ceases to be an employee of the Primary Group, and the termination of their employment
employment is in circumstances other than Special Circumstances (defned below), then all unvested Rights held by
the participant will be forfeited and lapse unless and to the extent otherwise determined by the Board.
If a participant’s termination is in Special Circumstances, then Performance Rights and Service Rights granted
in the fnancial year of termination will be forfeited in the same proportion that the remainder of the fnancial
year bears to the full fnancial year, unless otherwise determined by the Board.
Performance Rights and Service Rights that do not lapse at the termination of employment will continue
to be held by participants with a view to testing for vesting at the end of the relevant measurement period.
Special Circumstancesmeans death, total and permanent disablement as determined by the Board,
retirement with the prior consent of the Board, redundancy, retrenchment or other Company-initiated
terminations other than for cause.
Bonus Issues, In cases of bonus share issues by the Company, the number of Rights held by a participant will be increased
Rights Issues by the same number as the number of bonus shares that would have been received by the participants had
and Capital the Rights been fully paid ordinary Shares in the Company (except in the case that the bonus share issue is
Reorganisation in lieu of a dividend payment, in which case no adjustment will apply).
In the case of general rights issues to shareholders there will be no adjustment to the Rights. However, the
Board may consider issuing options of a number up to the number of Shares to which the participant would
have been entitled had the Rights been Shares. The exercise price of such options will be equal to the amount
payable by shareholders under the rights issue.
In the case of an issue of rights other than to the Company’s shareholders, there will be no adjustment
to the Rights.
In the case of other capital reconstructions, the Board may make such adjustments to the Rights as it
considers appropriate, subject to such adjustments complying with the ASX Listing Rules.
Change A Change of Control occurs when the Board advises participants that one or more persons acting in concert
of Control have acquired, or are likely to imminently acquire “control” of the Company as defned in section 50AA of the
including Corporations Act.
Takeover Unless otherwise determined by the Board, in the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the vesting
conditions attached to a tranche of Rights at the time of the relevant Change of Control offer will cease to
apply and:
�unvested Performance Rights granted in the fnal year of the Change of Control will lapse in the proportion
that the remainder of the fnancial year bears to the full fnancial year;
�all remaining unvested Performance Rights will vest in accordance with the application of the following
formula (noting that negative results will be taken to be nil):
unvested
Performance Rights
X
Share Price at the Change of Control – Offer Share Price
Offer Share Price
where:
Share Price at the Change of Controlmeans the volume weighted average share price (VWAP) at which
the Company’s shares were traded on ASX in the 14 days prior to the date of calculation (i.e. the date on
which the Change of Control occurs).
Offer Share Pricemeans the VWAP for the Company’s shares for the 10 trading days following the
most recent announcement of the Company’s fnancial results at the time of the LTI offer, or as otherwise
determined by the Board.
�any remaining unvested Performance Rights that do not vest in in accordance with the above formula
will lapse unless otherwise determined by the Board;
�all unvested Service Rights will vest; and
�any disposal restrictions applied to Deferred Rights by the Company and specifed as part of the LTI
Award will be lifted (including the removal of any Company-initiated CHESS holding lock if applicable),
unless otherwise determined by the Board.
Amendment The Board may at any time amend or repeal all or any of the provisions of the LTIP.
No amendment or repeal of the LTIP Rules can be made if it reduces the rights of existing participants in
respect of prior offers, unless the relevant participant consents, or where the amendment is introduced
primarily to comply with legal requirements, to correct any manifest error or mistake, or to address possible
adverse tax implications for participants generally or the Company arising from (amongst other things)
changes in law or tax rulings.
