  • a closely related party of such members of the KMP (including close family members and companies the KMP controls).

However, the Company will not disregard a vote cast if the vote is cast as a proxy for a person entitled to vote on Resolution 2 and either:

  • the proxy appointment is in writing and specifies the way the proxy is to vote (that is, for or against) on the Resolution and the vote is exercised as directed; or

  • the vote is cast by the Chairman of the Meeting and the appointment of the Chairman as proxy:

  • does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the Resolution; and

  • expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the KMP.

Resolution 3 (Grant of performance rights to Mr Stuart Grimshaw)

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.11, the Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 3 by or on behalf of:

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

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

  • 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

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

However, the Company will not disregard a vote cast on Resolution 3 if:

  • the vote is cast for a person entitled to vote on the Resolution;

  • the vote is cast by the Chairman of the Meeting; and

  • the appointment of the Chairman as proxy expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the KMP.

For the purpose of the voting exclusions applying to Resolutions 2 and 3 above, "associate" has the meaning given in the ASX Listing Rules and “key management personnel” and “closely related party” have the meanings given in the Corporations Act.

EXPRESS AUTHORITY OF THE CHAIRMAN

If a shareholder appoints the Chairman of the Meeting as their proxy, or the Chairman becomes the shareholder's proxy by default, and the shareholder does not direct the proxy how to vote on Resolutions 2 or 3 then by submitting the Proxy Form the shareholder expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy on Resolutions 2 and 3 even though those Resolutions are connected with the remuneration of a member of the Company's KMP.

CHAIRMAN'S VOTING INTENTIONS

The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

RESOLUTION BY POLL

Each Resolution considered at the AGM will be conducted by a poll.

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 in the Company as at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 14 November 2023 will be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM as a shareholder.

Voting entitlements

On a poll, each shareholder present in person has one vote for each fully paid share held by the shareholder. On a poll, each person present as a proxy, attorney or representative of a shareholder has one vote for each fully paid share held by the shareholder that the person represents.

Joint holders of shares

If more than one joint holder of shares is present at the AGM (whether in person or by proxy, attorney or representative) and casts a vote, only the vote of the joint holder whose name appears first in the Company’s share register will be counted.

HOW TO VOTE

Shareholders may vote either by:

  • attending the Meeting and voting in person at the Meeting; or

  • appointing a proxy or attorney to attend the Meeting and vote on their behalf.

A body corporate that is a shareholder or appointed proxy must appoint an individual as its body corporate representative if it wishes to attend and vote at the Meeting.

Voting in person

Shareholders who wish to vote in person will need to attend the Meeting and complete a voting card. When registering at the Meeting you will be given a voting card and instructions on how to complete it.

Page 4 of 26

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

Appointment of proxy

A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the AGM may appoint an individual or a body corporate as a proxy to attend and vote for them. To appoint a proxy, a shareholder must complete and return a Proxy Form. If a body corporate is appointed as a proxy, that body corporate must ensure that it appoints a body corporate representative in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act to exercise its powers as proxy at the AGM.

A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

A shareholder who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint up to two proxies to attend and vote at the AGM on that shareholder’s behalf and the appointment may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy may exercise at the AGM. 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.

A shareholder can direct their proxy how to vote on the Resolution by marking either the "For" or "Against" boxes or direct their proxy not to vote by marking the "Abstain" box on the Proxy Form. If a shareholder appoints the Chairman as proxy and does not direct the Chairman how to vote, the Chairman will vote FOR all Resolutions.

A proxy may vote or abstain as he or she chooses except where the appointment of the proxy directs the way the proxy is to vote on a particular Resolution. If the appointment of proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the Resolution and:

  • the proxy is not the Chairman, the proxy need not vote on a poll, however if the proxy does vote, the proxy must vote as directed; or

  • the proxy is the Chairman, the proxy must vote on a poll and must vote as directed.

There are some circumstances where the Chairman will be taken to have been appointed as a shareholder's proxy for the purposes of voting on the Resolution even if the shareholder has not expressly appointed the Chairman as their proxy. This will be the case where:

  • the appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the Resolution;

  • the appointed proxy is not the Chairman; and

  • either the proxy is not recorded as attending the Meeting or the proxy attends the Meeting but does not vote on the Resolution.

How to lodge your proxy

To be effective, the Proxy Form (and, if the appointment is signed or authenticated by the shareholder’s attorney or representative, the original or a certified copy of the authority or power of attorney under which it was signed or authenticated) must be received by the Company's share registry, Link Market Services, no later than 12.00pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 14 November 2023 (being 48 hours before the AGM).

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of shareholders of humm group in relation to the business to be conducted at the AGM to be held on Thursday, 16 November 2023 at 12.00pm (Sydney Time).

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 the abstentions noted below, the Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of all Resolutions. The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of each Resolution.

Resolutions 1, 2 and 3 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 and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Resolution 4 is a special resolution. For a special resolution to be passed, at least 75% of the votes cast by shareholders present and entitled to vote on the resolution must be in favour of the resolution.

A. CONSIDERATION OF FINANCIAL REPORTS

The Company's Financial Reports (comprised of the financial report, the directors' report and the independent auditor's report) for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 will be put before the Meeting. The Financial Reports are contained in the Company's Annual Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 ( 2023 Annual Report ).

While this item does not require a formal resolution to be put to the Meeting, shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the matters contained within the Financial Reports. Shareholders will also be able to ask questions of the Company's Auditor who will be in attendance at the Meeting.

B. ITEMS FOR APPROVAL

Resolution 1: Re-election of a director, Mr Andrew Abercrombie

Mr Andrew Abercrombie

In accordance with Article 10.3(c) of the Company's Constitution, Mr Andrew Abercrombie would usually automatically retire by rotation at the close of the AGM and, accordingly, he offers himself for re-election.

Mr Abercrombie is a Non-Executive Director of the Company and was appointed to the Board in November 2006 and last re-elected in 2021. Mr Abercrombie became a founding director of the original FlexiRent business in 1991 and was the CEO until 2003. He is Chairman of the Company's Board and Nomination Committee.

Mr Abercrombie is an experienced commercial and tax lawyer and was a founding partner in a legal firm operating in both Sydney and Melbourne. Mr Abercrombie left the law to complete an MBA at IMD in Switzerland. On his return to Australia, Mr Abercrombie became involved in property investment and tax consulting. He is currently involved in several philanthropic and think-tank ventures, together with private interests.

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

The Board does not consider Mr Abercrombie to be an Independent Director as he indirectly holds 25% of the shares currently on issue in the Company.

Directors’ recommendation on Resolution 1

The Board considers that Mr Abercrombie continues to be a valuable addition to the Board in light of the particular skills, knowledge and experience that he brings to the Board and his leadership of Board

Page 9 of 26

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

discussions as Chairman. The Board considers that Mr Abercrombie’s extensive corporate knowledge and understanding of the Company supports his re-election.

The Directors (other than Mr Abercrombie who is the subject of this Resolution) unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr Abercrombie as a Director.

Resolution 2: Adoption of Remuneration Report

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

The Remuneration Report sets out the Company's principles and policy in relation to the remuneration of the Company's KMP as well as, amongst other things:

  • the executive remuneration structure;

  • the relationship between executive remuneration and Company performance;

  • the terms of KMP remuneration;

  • the FY24 remuneration structure changes;

  • Non-Executive Director remuneration policy and structure; and

  • details of performance rights and options.

The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 is part of the Company's 2023 Annual Report and can be found on humm group’s website at https://investors.hummgroup.com/Investor-Centre/?page=annual-reports.

Following consideration of the Remuneration Report, the Chairman will give shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report. Resolution 2, concerning the adoption of the Remuneration Report, will then be put to a vote. The vote on Resolution 2 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board values shareholder feedback and will take the outcome of the vote into account in setting remuneration policy for future years.

Directors’ recommendation on Resolution 2

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from the Company as set out in the Remuneration Report, the Directors abstain from providing a recommendation in relation to Resolution 2.

Resolution 3: Grant of performance rights to Mr Stuart Grimshaw

Resolution 3 seeks approval for the Company to grant:

  • short-term incentive ( STI ) performance rights; and

  • long-term incentive ( LTI ) performance rights,

to the Company's CEO and Managing Director, Mr Stuart Grimshaw.

(a) Why is shareholder approval being sought?

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1, the Company must not permit a director to acquire equity securities (including rights to issued or unissued shares (such as performance rights)) under an employee incentive scheme unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders by ordinary resolution. The proposed grants of the performance rights to Mr Grimshaw, being a director of the Company, are therefore subject to ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1 and require shareholder approval before they can be granted.

Page 10 of 26

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

Further, if Mr Grimshaw's employment ceased and the Board decided to permit the vesting or vary the vesting conditions of any of his performance rights, this could be a benefit to which section 200B of the Corporations Act might apply unless the benefit is approved by shareholders or an exception applies. Accordingly, shareholder approval is also being sought for the purposes of sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act to allow the vesting and settlement of Mr Grimshaw's performance rights on Mr Grimshaw ceasing employment with the Company (as summarised under "Cessation of employment' in paragraphs (c) and (d) below).

(b) Mr Grimshaw's remuneration package

Mr Grimshaw's remuneration package is based on the Company's Remuneration Policy (as described in the 2023 Annual Report). This policy seeks to provide appropriate rewards to focus employees on achieving humm group's strategy while also attracting, motivating and retaining talented employees and ensuring ethical conduct.

Mr Grimshaw’s total remuneration package for the financial year ending 30 June 2024 ( FY24 ) is comprised of the following components:

Component of
remuneration
Description of remuneration
Fixed remuneration (FR)
(cash)
A$927,398.80 (inclusive of superannuation) per annum.

(cash and performance

June 2024 (FY24)) and for each of the next 4 financial years (FY25,
FY26, FY27 and FY28) of up to a maximum of A$1,210,069.34 (up to
maximum of 55% of FR (or A$510,069.34) in cash and A$700,000 in
performance rights) per annum. The on target cash entitlement is 30%
of FR and up to an additional 25% of FR payable if targets exceeded
(total maximum entitlement of 55% of FR payable in cash).
The STI payment is subject to the risk and culture gateway,
performance of the Company against a corporate scorecard (financial
profitability, customer experience and employee engagement metrics)
and Mr Grimshaw's performance against set individual key
performance indicators. (These performance conditions are described
in the table below for the STI performance rights.)
The STI is subject to the Company's STI Plan Rules, which are summarised
below in paragraphs (c) and (e).
If payable, the STI cash component will be paid in September each year.
Approval is being sought for the grant of STI performance rights of
A$3,500,000 in total (or 8,215,962 STI performance rights in total based
on a 5-day VWAP Company share price from 1 June 2023 of A$0.426)
in five tranches for five financial years (FYs) of up to A$700,000 each (or
1,643,192 STI performance rights per tranche).
The STI performance rights are subject to the Company's STI Plan Rules
(including the Deferral Period and Restriction Period, described below),
which are summarised below in paragraphs (c) and (e).
Long-term incentive (LTI)
(performance rights) FY24
- FY26
Approval for the grant of LTI performance rights of A$6,282,196.40 (or

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

The LTI is subject to the Company's LTI Plan rules (a summary of the material terms of which is contained in paragraphs (d) and (e) below).

Further details of Mr Grimshaw's remuneration arrangements are in the Remuneration Report in humm group's 2023 Annual Report, which is available at https://investors.humm-group.com/InvestorCentre/?page=annual-reports.

In a competitive market for executives, the Board believes that it is important to ensure that humm group's remuneration arrangements are in-line with the remuneration arrangements offered by its Australian and international peers.

The Non-Executive Directors consider that Mr Grimshaw's remuneration package (including the proposed grants of performance rights under Resolution 3):

  • is reasonable and appropriate having regard to the position of the Company and Mr Grimshaw's duties and responsibilities;

  • is in the best interests of the Company as a whole; and

  • is consistent with the Company's Employee Remuneration Policy, in particular the principles of linking remuneration to performance to focus employees on achieving the Group's strategic goals and providing market competitive remuneration to attract and retain highly skilled candidates who will make a positive impact on the Group's performance.

The Board retains a discretion in determining the final vesting outcome in relation to any performance rights issued to Mr Grimshaw. When considering performance against each of the performance conditions, the Board may adjust the final vesting outcome as it considers appropriate in cases of, for example, unexpected or unforeseen events impacting the achievement of the performance conditions or a broader assessment of humm group's performance indicating there should be an adjustment so that the reward outcome is appropriate. Any such adjustments will be disclosed retrospectively in the Company’s Remuneration Report issued following the adjustment.

(c) Grant of STI performance rights

The grant of STI performance rights is proposed to be part of Mr Grimshaw's total remuneration package for FY24 to FY28.

The grant provides Mr Grimshaw an opportunity to receive shares in the Company if he meets or exceeds corporate and personal performance hurdles set for him by the Board (and described in the table below), and any other relevant conditions are satisfied.

The setting of the performance hurdles and the grant of STI performance rights to Mr Grimshaw is intended to motivate and incentivise Mr Grimshaw and align his interests with humm group's strategic goals by considering both corporate and personal performance and linking his performance hurdles to humm group's key financial metrics and strategic initiatives.

The following table summarises the key terms of the STI performance rights that will be granted to Mr Grimshaw (subject to shareholder approval):

Term Details of STI performance rights
Number of STI
performance
rights
Subject to shareholder approval, Mr Grimshaw will be issued with 8,215,962 STI
performance rights.
The number of performance rights has been calculated by dividing the face
value of the grant (being A$3,500,000) by the volume-weighted average price
(VWAP) ofhummgroup's shares traded on the ASX in the 5 trading days up to
and including 1 June 2023, which was $0.426.
The STI performance rights will be granted in five tranches of A$700,000 each
(or 1,643,192 STI performance rights). Each tranche relates to a separate FY as
follows:

STI Performance rights for a FY will only vest if: the FY performance conditions
are satisfied (tested when the Company announces its results after the end of the
FY (expected September each year)); and Mr Grimshaw remains employed by
the Company for 12 months after testing (Deferral Period).
Upon vesting after the Deferral Period, STI performance rights will be
automatically exercised and a corresponding number of shares will be issued to
or otherwise acquired by a trustee to be held on trust for Mr Grimshaw for a
further 12 months (Restriction Period). At the end of the Restriction Period, the
shares will be transferred to Mr Grimshaw.
Generally the STI performance rights are subject to the Company's STI Plan
Rules, the material terms of which are summarised in this paragraph (c) and
below in paragraph (e).
The actual total value (if any) that Mr Grimshaw will receive from the STI
performance rights grant will not be finally determined until September 2029
(being the expected vesting date of the fifth and final tranche) and will depend
on the extent to which the performance conditions are achieved for each
tranche, the number of shares that are issued to or acquired for Mr Grimshaw
and the futurehummgroup share price. No value will be received by him if the
performance conditions are not achieved or the performance rights otherwise
lapse.

The STI performance rights are subject to a "risk and culture gateway" and
corporate and personal performance hurdles.
Risk and culture gateway
The vesting of any STI performance rights for each tranche is subject to the
following risk and culture objectives being achieved during the relevant FY
performance period. If these objectives are not achieved for a particular tranche,
no performance rights for that tranche will vest (notwithstanding that any
performance hurdles may have been achieved).

Term Details of STI performance rights Culture • No material breaches of policies and aligned with the Company's 'humm we humm' values Corporate and personal performance hurdles If the "risk and culture gateway" condition is satisfied, then the corporate and personal performance hurdles will be considered. The corporate and personal hurdles will be tested for each tranche against the actual performance of the Company and Mr Grimshaw over the relevant FY performance period for that tranche (as detailed above). The extent to which the performance hurdles are achieved for a particular tranche will determine how many performance rights in that tranche will be eligible to vest on the relevant vesting date for that tranche (as detailed above). The performance hurdles, and the weightings attributable to those performance hurdles, will be set by the Board for each tranche in advance of the start of the relevant FY performance period. The hurdles may change from year to year at the discretion of the Board and there is no certainty that the hurdles in respect of one tranche of the STI performance rights will correlate to the hurdles in respect of another tranche. These hurdles will be disclosed in the annual report prepared after completion of the FY performance period (so that shareholders will be informed retrospectively of the hurdles set and whether they were reached).

For FY24 the performance hurdles and weightings are as follows:

Performance hurdles % Weighting
Corporate hurdles
• Normalised Cash Profit After Tax 30%
• Customer Experience (Customer Net Promoter Score
and Broker Satisfaction)
15%
• Employee Engagement Score 15%

of an external risk review, in consultation with and as
prioritised by the Board.

management and operational cost efficiencies.

Term Details of STI performance rights
Vesting of
performance
rights
Satisfaction of the performance conditions attaching to STI performance rights
in each tranche will be tested after the announcement of the Company's results
(likely to be in September after the end of the relevant FY), and if after the
Deferral Period (the 12 month period after the testing date) Mr Grimshaw
remains employed by the Company, the performance rights to which he is
entitled will vest.
Any performance rights that do not vest will lapse.
Performance rights that vest will be automatically exercised and one fully paid
ordinary share will be issued or acquired on-market for each vested
performance right (unless the Board decides to settle any vested performance
rights in cash). If there is a reorganisation of the Company's share capital, the
number of performance rights will be automatically adjusted in accordance with
the ASX Listing Rules.
Each share that is issued will rank equally with otherhummgroup shares.
Restriction
Period
Shares that are issued to, or acquired on-market for, Mr Grimshaw following
vesting of any STI performance rights will be subject to trading restrictions for
an additional 12 months or until Mr Grimshaw's employment ceases (whichever
is the earlier) (Restriction Period). During the Restriction Period, the shares will
be held by a third party trustee on trust for Mr Grimshaw.
Mr Grimshaw may not trade, dispose, or otherwise deal in (including by entering
into any hedging arrangements in respect of) the shares during the Restriction
Period (except as required by law or determined otherwise by the Board). Mr
Grimshaw is entitled to all rights attached to the shares (including dividends and
to exercise voting rights) during the Restriction Period.
After the Restriction Period, the shares will be transferred to Mr Grimshaw along
with any dividends that have accumulated and no more trading restrictions will
apply, other than under the Company's Securities Trading Policy and law.
Cessation of
employment
If Mr Grimshaw ceases employment with the Company before the relevant
vesting date for any STI performance rights, then the unvested performance
rights will lapse.
However, in limited circumstances, including, for example, retirement or
redundancy, the Board may exercise its discretion to determine the treatment of
unvested performance rights, including, for example, to determine that all or a
pro-rata amount of unvested performance rights vest early, or remain on-foot
and vest on the original vesting date, in each case with a waiver of the continuous
service condition.
For any shares held on trust for Mr Grimshaw, the Restriction Period will end on
cessation of employment and those shares will then be transferred to him.
Forfeiture The Board retains a discretion to lapse any unvested STI performance rights if
Mr Grimshaw has acted with fraud, dishonesty, wilful misconduct, wilful breach
of duty, serious and wilful negligence or incompetence in the performance of
his duties, including due to a breach of his employment contract.
The Board also retains a discretion to forfeit any shares that have been issued
to, or acquired on-market for, Mr Grimshaw following vesting of the
performance rights and which are being held on trust for him if, during the
relevant Restriction Period,Mr Grimshaw has acted with fraud,dishonestyor

vesting are subsequently determined to be materially misstated.

(d) Grant of LTI performance rights

The proposed grant of LTI performance rights is part of Mr Grimshaw's total remuneration package for FY24 - FY26.

Under the LTI Plan Mr Grimshaw will receive shares in the Company if the applicable LTI performance hurdles determined by the Board are met, and any other relevant conditions are satisfied. The performance hurdles that will be applicable to Mr Grimshaw for the LTI performance rights are set out in the table below.

The purpose of the proposed grant of LTI performance rights to Mr Grimshaw is to:

  • ensure that Mr Grimshaw is remunerated fairly and responsibly;

  • align Mr Grimshaw’s interests with that of shareholders;

  • provide long-term incentives for participation in humm group’s future growth; and

  • secure and retain the services of Mr Grimshaw.

The following table summarises the key terms of the LTI performance rights that will be granted to Mr Grimshaw if approved by shareholders:

Term Details relating to LTI performance rights
Number of
performance
rights
Subject to shareholder approval, Mr Grimshaw will be granted 14,150,501 LTI
performance rights.
The number of LTI performance rights has been calculated by dividing the face
value of the grant (being in total A$6,282,196) by $0.444, being the volume-
weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company's shares traded on the ASX in
the 5 trading days up to and including 14 September 2023.
The LTI performance rights are comprised of three tranches:

Performance rights for a FY will only vest if: the LTI performance conditions for
the relevant FY are satisfied (tested when the Company announces its results
after the end of the FY (expected September each year)); and Mr Grimshaw
remains employed by the Company on the 30 September 2026 vesting day.
The actual value (if any) of shares Mr Grimshaw will receive from his grant of LTI
performance rights is not determined until the end of the three-year LTI
performance period and will depend on the extent to which the LTI
performance hurdles are achieved and the prevailinghummgroup share price
at the time of vesting and automatic exercise. No value will be received by Mr
Grimshaw if the performance hurdles are not achieved or the performance
rights otherwise lapse.
Performance
conditions
Vesting of LTI performance rights are subject to a continuous employment
condition until 30 September 2026 and additionally:

Term Details relating to LTI performance rights Details relating to LTI performance rights Details relating to LTI performance rights

as to 50%, an earnings per share (EPS) performance hurdle; and

as to the remaining 50%, a return on cash equity (RoCE) performance
hurdle.
The LTI performance hurdles are set by the Board by reference to the
Company’s business plan. While the Board may exercise certain discretions
under the LTI Plan, the Board will consider exercising its discretion with respect
to any applicable adjustments to thresholds and targets at the time of testing
for vesting purposes.
EPS performance hurdle
EPS measures the earnings generated by the Company attributable to each
share on issue. For each tranche of LTI performance rights, EPS growth will be
calculated as the Company's normalised cash profit after tax divided by the
weighted average number of shares on issue for the relevant FY. The Company
will disclose the actual EPS target on a retrospective basis in its annual report.
RoCE performance hurdle
The remaining 50% of the LTI performance rights will be subject to the
Company's RoCE hurdle.
The RoCE hurdle measures the average return on cash equity contributed by
shareholders over the performance period. Annual RoCE will be calculated as
the Company's normalised cash profit after tax divided by the average total cash
equity (total equity excluding reserves) during the relevant FY performance
period. The Company will disclose the actual RoCE target on a retrospective
basis in its annual report.
Entitlement to vesting
The number of LTI performance rights subject to each of the EPS / RoCE hurdles
(being up to 50% for each hurdle for each tranche) that will vest at the end of
the FY performance period will be determined by the Board. For FY23 the
Board applied the following table for that determination:
EPS / RoCE Target Range Performance rights that vest (%)
Less than 85% of target EPS / RoCE Nil
85% - 100% of target EPS / RoCE Progressive pro-rata vesting between
50% and 100% (on a straight line
basis)
Greater than target EPS / RoCE 100%
Performance
period
The EPS and RoCE performance hurdles will be tested for each FY performance
period after the release of the Company's full year audited results.
Any LTI performance rights to which Mr Grimshaw is entitled will, subject to him
remaining to be employed by the Company, vest on 30 September 2026.
Any unvested performance rights will lapse.
No shares issued on the automatic exercise of vested LTI performance rights are
subject to trading restrictions.
Cessation of
employment
The treatment of performance rights upon cessation of employment of Mr
Grimshaw is summarised in the table below:
EPS / RoCE Target Range
Performance rights that vest (%)
Less than 85% of target EPS / RoCE

Reason of
cessation
Outcome
For any reason
other than
redundancy or
retirement
Unless the Board determines otherwise, all unvested
performance rights will lapse on cessation of employment.
The Board also has a discretion to vest all or some of the
unvested performance rights at the time notice of
termination or resignation is given.
Redundancy or
retirement
Unless the Board determines otherwise, a pro-rata number
of all unvested performance rights will continue based on
the proportion of each performance period which has
elapsed at the time of cessation of employment and will vest
on the original vesting date, subject to satisfaction of the
performance conditions, and otherwise all unvested
performance rights will lapse at the time of cessation of
employment.
In addition to the above, unless the Board determines otherwise, where Mr
Grimshaw is absent from work on unpaid leave (excluding unpaid parental or
personal (sick or carer's) leave) for a period of more than nine months prior to
the 30 September 2026 vesting date, all unvested performance rights will lapse.
Where Mr Grimshaw is absent from work on approved unpaid parental leave or
personal (sick or carer's) leave for a period of more than nine months in a given
performance year prior to the 30 September 2026 vesting date, all unvested
rights will lapse pro-rata for the relevant performance year based on the
proportion that the additional unpaid leave taken bears to the total length of
the performance periods, and otherwise the performance rights will continue
and will vest on the original vesting date, subject to satisfaction of the
performance conditions.
The Board retains an on-going and absolute discretion to determine that a
different treatment should apply (subject to any shareholder approval that may
be required).
Malus/clawback The Board retains a discretion to determine, until 30 September 2029 and
subject to law, that any treatment in relation to performance rights or shares
allocated upon vesting and exercise of performance rights, will apply to ensure
no unfair benefit is derived by Mr Grimshaw. Such treatment may include:

adjusting the conditions applicable to the assessment of the performance
rights or shares subject to conditions or restrictions (including, for example,
that vesting of performance rights be postponed, pending completing and
outcome of an investigation);

reducing or extinguishing Mr Grimshaw's entitlement to performance rights
or shares which remain subject to conditions or restrictions;

deeming all or some of the performance rights or shares which remain
subject to conditions or restrictions have lapsed or have been forfeited (as
applicable), or continue but become subject to conditions;

requiring that Mr Grimshaw repay to the Company as a debt:
o
the value of all or some of any shares acquired under the LTI Plan
(including shares that have been sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed);

Page 18 of 26

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

Term Details relating to LTI performance rights
o
all or part of the net proceeds of sale where shares acquired under the
LTI Plan have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed; and/or
o
any dividends (or dividend equivalent payment) paid in respect of any
shares acquired under the LTI Plan; and/or

adjusting Mr Grimshaw's incentive entitlements or participation on the LTI
Plan in the current year or any future year.
This discretion may be exercised in a number of circumstances, including:

Mr Grimshaw has acted with fraud, dishonesty, serious misconduct or gross
negligence or in material breach of his duties or obligations to the
Company, has been convicted of an offence or had a judgement entered
against him in connection with the affairs of the Company or has made a
material misstatement on behalf of the Company or has acted, or failed to
act, in a way that contributes to material reputational damage to the
Company;

the Board becomes aware after Mr Grimshaw's employment ceases of
circumstances during Mr Grimshaw's employment that, if known at the time,
would have resulted in his performance rights or shares being forfeited or
treated in a different manner; or

the Board becomes aware after performance rights have vested of a
material misstatement in, or omission from, the Company's financial
statements, or a misstatement concerning the satisfaction of a condition
applicable to the performance rights which, but for such misstatement or
omission, would have resulted in some or all of the performance rights not
vesting.
Change of
control
If there is a change of control of the Company, the Board retains a discretion to
determine the treatment of unvested LTI performance rights and the timing of
such treatment, which may include determining that unvested performance
rights:

vest and become exercisable;

continue and remain subject to the same conditions and/or performance
period;

become subject to substitute or varied conditions and/or performance
period;

may only be settled in cash, or in securities other than shares.
In exercising this discretion, the Board will have regard to any matter that it
considers relevant, including without limitation, the circumstances of the
change of control, whether the applicable conditions have been satisfied (or
estimated by the Board to have been satisfied) at the time of the change of
control and/or the proportion of the performance period that has passed at the
time of the change of control.
If the Board does not exercise discretion to do anything on a change of control,
all unvested performance rights will vest and be automatically exercised.
Divestment of
business
The Board retains a discretion to adjust the LTI Plan rules or the rights awarded
under it where the Company divests, or disposes of, a material business or
asset.

Page 19 of 26

(e) Terms applicable to both STI performance rights and LTI performance rights

The following terms apply to all of the performance rights for which shareholder approval is being sought:

Term Details relating to both STI performance rights and LTI performance rights
Date of grant If shareholder approval is obtained, the performance rights will be granted to
Mr Grimshaw as soon as practicable after the AGM, but in any event, within 12
months of the AGM, and will have an effective grant date of 17 November 2023,
being the day after the Meeting.
Performance
periods
Performance conditions applicable to specific performance rights will be tested
over the FY performance period applicable to the performance conditions.
Testing will occur after the release of the Company's full year audited results for
the relevant FY.
Price payable or
shares
No amount is payable by Mr Grimshaw in respect of the grant of performance
rights, nor in respect of any shares issued to or acquired for Mr Grimshaw
following vesting of any performance rights.
Entitlement to
shares
Mr Grimshaw will be entitled to receive one fully paid ordinary share in the
Company (or a cash payment of equivalent value at the Board's discretion) for
each performance right which vests.
If there is a reorganisation of capital of the Company, then the rights of Mr
Grimshaw will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing
Rules in respect of a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.
The performance rights do not carry any dividend or voting rights, or rights to
receive notices of, or attend, general meetings of shareholders, prior to vesting.
Mr Grimshaw will not be entitled to trade, transfer or otherwise deal in
(including by entering into any hedging arrangements in respect of) any
performance rights or interest in any performance rights (except as required by
law or determined otherwise by the Board).
  • (f) Additional disclosures relating to STI performance rights and LTI performance rights shareholder approval

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will proceed with the grant of STI performance rights and LTI performance rights as described above. If shareholder approval is not obtained, the Board will restructure Mr Grimshaw's remuneration arrangements to an equivalent cash-based compensation structure tied to performance of the Company's share price over the same period.

As the new Managing Director and CEO of the Company, Mr Grimshaw has not previously been granted any STI performance rights or LTI performance rights under the plans described above.

There is no loan scheme in relation to the performance rights (or the shares underlying them).

Details of any performance rights issued under the plans described above will be published in the Company’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 the plans after Resolution 3 is approved and who are not named in this Notice of Meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under that ASX Listing Rule.

As noted above, shareholder approval is also being sought for the purposes of sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act to allow the vesting and settlement of Mr Grimshaw's performance rights on Mr Grimshaw ceasing employment with the Company (as summarised under "Cessation of

Page 20 of 26

==> picture [156 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

employment' in paragraphs (c) and (d) above), where to do so would constitute the giving of a benefit to which section 200B of the Corporations Act applies.

The value of any benefit relating to the performance rights given in connection with Mr Grimshaw ceasing to hold managerial or executive office cannot presently be ascertained. Matters, events and circumstances that will, or are likely to, affect the calculation of the benefit are:

  • the number of unvested performance rights held by Mr Grimshaw prior to cessation of employment;

  • the circumstances of or reasons for Mr Grimshaw's cessation of employment;

  • the number of performance rights that the Board determines should vest on Mr Grimshaw's cessation of employment;

  • the result of any pro-rating on cessation of employment;

  • the performance of the Company and Mr Grimshaw against the performance hurdles as at the date of Mr Grimshaw's cessation of employment;

  • whether the performance rights are settled in shares or by payment of a cash equivalent amount; and

  • the market price of the Company's shares on ASX on the date shares are provided to Mr Grimshaw, or if a cash equivalent amount is paid to Mr Grimshaw, upon vesting of the performance rights.

Directors’ recommendation on Resolution 3

The Directors (other than Mr Grimshaw) unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3 on the basis that Mr Grimshaw's remuneration package (including his proposed grants of performance rights under Resolution 3):

  • is reasonable and appropriate having regard to the circumstances of the Company and Mr Grimshaw's duties and responsibilities;

  • is in the best interests of the Company as a whole; and

  • is consistent with the Company's Employee Remuneration Policy, in particular the principles of linking remuneration to performance to focus employees on achieving the Group's strategic goals and providing market competitive remuneration to attract and retain highly skilled candidates who will make a positive impact on the Group's performance.

Resolution 4. Amendment of Constitution

Under section 136(2) of the Corporations Act, a company may amend its constitution by a special resolution of shareholders. For a special resolution to be passed, at least 75% of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote on the Resolution must be in favour of the Resolution.

The Company's constitution was adopted in 2006 and has not been amended. Since 2006, there have been a number of amendments to the ASX Listing Rules, Corporations Act and developments in corporate governance practices. humm group is seeking shareholder approval to amend its constitution for consistency with certain updates to the ASX Listing Rules and Corporations Act and bring the constitution into alignment with current corporate governance and commercial practices.

A copy of the Company's constitution showing the amendments proposed under the Resolution is available on humm group's website at: https://investors.humm-group.com/Investor= - Centre/?page corporate governance and will be mailed out to shareholders by the Company on request. Shareholders can request a copy of the amendments by calling the Company's registry Link Market Services on 1800 881 432 (within Australia) or +61 1800 881 432 (outside Australia).

A summary of the proposed amendments to the constitution is set out in Annexure A.

The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available undirected proxies FOR the Resolution.

ANNEXURE A

SUMMARY OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO CONSTITUTION

Topic Summary of proposed amendments
Joint holders
The proposed amendments to the constitution align the limit on joint holders of shares with the functional limit of the
ASX Clearing House Electronic Subregister System (CHESS) (or any replacement system) and any limit prescribed in the
operating rules. This will allow the limit on the number of joint holders to increase to the maximum number of persons
capable of being registered as joint holders of a share.
Lien on shares
The proposed amendments seek to align the constitution with the ASX Listing Rules which provide that, in respect of a
lien the Company has over a particular share for certain amounts due to the Company by the holder of the share, the
interest over which the Company may extend the lien is the "reasonable interest" incurred by the Company because
those amounts are not paid.
General meetings
The proposed amendments seek to align the constitution with recent changes to the Corporations Act which provide
flexibility for companies to hold hybrid meetings (where shareholders may participate either in person or using virtual
meeting technology) or virtual meetings (where shareholders can only participate using virtual meeting technology and
not at a physical location). Further amendments facilitate the Company holding hybrid and virtual meetings, for example,
they expressly set out that the appointed chair of the meeting may adjourn a meeting to address technical issues and
allow another person to act as chair for parts of a meeting where the appointed chair is absent or unable to act. Any
proxies held by the appointed chair will then be taken to be in favour of the acting chair.

A range of amendments are also proposed to assist with the orderly conduct of general meetings. These include
expressly setting out actions the chair may take, including to refuse entry or take security measures in respect of a person
who does not comply with security arrangements, determine not to put a resolution to the meeting (except for
resolutions requisitioned by shareholders or required by law), and refuse to allow an amendment to a resolution or any
business to be transacted unless the general nature of the business is stated in the relevant notice of meeting.

Amendments are proposed to assist with the administration of appointments of proxies, attorneys and representatives
of shareholders. These include clarifying what actions the Company may take in respect of an improperly executed,
incomplete or unclear instrument appointing a proxy, attorney or representative, in what form an instrument appointing
a proxy, attorney or representative will be taken to be valid and the steps a shareholder can take to validly lodge a proxy
appointment electronically where electronic lodgement is provided for in the notice of meeting.

Amendments are proposed to allow a proxy to speak and vote for a shareholder at a general meeting while the
appointingshareholder ispresent, givingshareholders additional flexibilitytoparticipate in hybrid meetings in the

Page 23 of 26

==> picture [156 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

manner most convenient to them. Currently, a proxy's authority to speak and vote for a shareholder at a general meeting
is suspended while the shareholder is present.
Voting at general
meetings

To reflect recent changes to the Corporations Act and the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance
Principles and Recommendations, amendments are proposed to clarify that voting at a general meeting will generally
be conducted by poll, including where, for so long as the Company is ASX listed, the notice convening the general
meeting sets out an intention to propose the resolutions to be voted on and states the resolutions or where a poll is
demanded by the chair of the meeting or shareholders in accordance with the Corporations Act. Voting by poll is
generally seen as more accurate and a better reflection of the voting power of all shareholders, compared to voting at
the meeting by a show of hands. The Company's practice to date has been to conduct voting by poll so the proposed
amendments will not result in any change of approach. The amendments also clarify that where voting at a general
meeting is conducted by poll, the result of the poll may be announced in the manner and at the time the chair of the
meeting considers appropriate.

Amendments are proposed to facilitate shareholders voting directly on resolutions before a general meeting without
the need to attend the meeting or appoint a proxy to attend the meeting and vote on the shareholder's behalf. Direct
voting will be enabled for a general meeting where the Directors determine that direct voting is to be used and will
entitle shareholders to exercise the same number of votes on a resolution as they would be entitled to exercise if they
voted at the meeting in person or by proxy. The amendments also expressly set out the circumstances in which a direct
vote will be disregarded, for example, where a direct vote is cast by a shareholder that is not entitled to vote on the
resolution or where a direct vote is cast by a shareholder who is present at the meeting at the time the resolution is
considered. The amendments also allow the Company to disregard any votes cast on a resolution by a shareholder by
way of direct vote where a vote is also cast by a proxy, attorney or representative appointed by that same shareholder
on the resolution or where a further direct vote is cast by a shareholder on the resolution. The purpose of this amendment
is to avoid multiple voting by shareholders.
Directors' remuneration
Amendments are proposed to clarify that Director remuneration determined by the Company at a general meeting does
not include remuneration in the form of share, option or other equity plans approved separately by the Company at a
general meeting. The proposed amendments also reflect that superannuation contributions are included in Director
remuneration determined by the Company in a general meeting, as required by the ASX Listing Rules. No change is
proposed to the aggregate amount payable to Non-Executive Directors that was approved by shareholders at the
Company's 2022 annual general meeting.
Directors' meetings and
written resolutions of
Directors

The proposed amendments enable greater efficiency and provide more flexibility to the way the Board operates,
including by allowing:

Page 24 of 26

o
while the Company is listed on the ASX, a written resolution to be passed if consented to by a majority of the Directors
entitled to vote on the resolution (and not less that the number required for a quorum at a meeting of Directors) and
provided a notice in writing of the resolution is given to all Directors;
o
while the Company is not listed on the ASX, a written resolution to be passed if consented to by all of the Directors
entitled to vote on the resolution and provided a notice in writing of the resolution is given to all Directors; and
o
the Directors to consent to a written resolution in a variety of ways, including by giving the Company a written notice
by electronic means that signifies their consent.

The amendments also clarify that Directors' meetings may be called or held using technology and facilitate the holding
of Directors' meetings using technology.
Revoking dividends
The proposed amendments make clear that the Directors may revoke or alter any determination in relation to payment
of a dividend at any time before the time fixed for payment of the dividend. The proposed amendments do not alter the
Company's obligation under the ASX Listing Rules to announce a decision not to pay or to reduce a dividend it has
previously announced it will pay.
Distribution of specific
assets to satisfy
dividends, capital
returns and other
distributions

The constitution currently allows dividends to be paid by a distribution of specific assets, but does not permit a capital
return to be paid in the same way. The proposed amendments give the Company the flexibility to pay capital returns
through the distribution of specific assets. The Company has no current plans to implement any dividend or reduction
of capital via a distribution of assets, but the Directors consider it to be in the shareholders' best interests to include
these provisions which allow the flexibility to do so in the future.

The amendments also expand the Directors' existing ancillary powers relating to the payment of a dividend by a
distribution of specific assets and extends those powers to capital returns. The amendments provide greater certainty
around the mechanics of such distributions, and allow Directors to make a cash payment to certain shareholders, to deal
with fractions of securities that are distributed and to authorise any person to enter into an agreement with the Company
on behalf of the shareholder entitled to the dividend or capital return in relation to the distribution or issue of assets. The
amendments make clear that if the Company distributes to shareholders shares, debentures or other securities of the
Company or another company or trust to satisfy a dividend or capital return, each shareholder will be taken to agree to
become a member of the relevant company or trust and be bound by its constitution, and appoints the Company and
any nominated officer of the Company as his or her agent or attorney to do anything required to give effect to the
distribution.
Service of documents
Amendments are proposed to clarify that, in addition to the other methods of giving a document currently prescribed
bythe constitution,the Companymay give a document to a shareholder bynotifyingthe shareholder byan electronic

Page 25 of 26

==> picture [156 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

means nominated by the shareholder that the document is available and how the shareholder may use the nominated
access means to access the document and by any other means permitted by law.

The constitution currently provides that a document sent by fax or electronic transmission will be taken to have delivered
on the day following transmission. Amendments are proposed to change the time of deemed receipt to the time when
the fax or electronic transmission is recorded in the sender's system as being sent, unless a bounce-back is received.

Amendments are also proposed to make clear that where a shareholder is uncontactable by the Company, a document
will be deemed to be given to the shareholder if the document is available for inspection at the Company’s registered
office for 48 hours and will be taken to be served at the start of that period.
Restricted securities
Amendments are proposed to the existing restricted securities provisions to align with the ASX Listing Rules.
Small holdings
Amendments are proposed to the definition of 'Market Value' in the existing small holdings provisions to align with the
ASX Listing Rules.

Amendments are proposed to make it clear, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Company may buy-back the shares of
a shareholder that are offered for sale under a small holding sale facility.
