>> Special Business

Item 4. Approval of change of Company name

The Board is recommending that the Company name be changed to reflect the simplification and transformation of the historic flexigroup business – which has grown over the years through organic and inorganic means – into a business which will leverage the Group’s most recognised brand, humm .

The Board believes the leadership position created under the humm brand has provided the appropriate catalyst to reconsider the Group’s name and brand proposition.

The Company has a clear and differentiated proposition: interest-free buying power for everything, everywhere, and for everybody. The unification of our proposition – interest free instalment payments for consumers and SMEs – supports the unification of our product and corporate branding. Under one unified brand the Company can lead a new frontier and push into new and evolving solutions that will drive the way customers live, shop and budget.

By delivering group brand awareness, and aligning all product brands, the Company can create resonance with customers and retailers, delivering multiple benefits to the Company and shareholders, whether through reduction in the costs of sale, or through driving revenue benefits from cross promoting all products to all retailers and customers via a unified app and seller portal. The humm ecosystem is powered by a common credit and insights engine enabling the Company to continually enhance and adapt our platform.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020 // 4

Under the humm Group Limited banner the Company aims to deliver one strong, clear and simple proposition to our customers and partners across Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. A new name will simplify our story to customers, retailers and clarify our significant market position.

BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution to adopt the new company name of humm Group Limited.

Item 5. Approval of participation in the flexigroup Long Term Incentive Plan

Cancellation of existing Options and grant of FY21 LTI

In 2019, flexigroup implemented the new Transformation Incentive Plan (“ LTIP ”) for the CEO and key executives to support the Company’s growth and transformation which is critical to flexigroup ’s strategy.

Under the LTIP, the CEO (and other eligible executives) was entitled to receive grants of Options to acquire shares in the Company, subject to meeting performance and service conditions.

Options under the LTIP were proposed to be granted to further align the CEO’s variable remuneration with share price growth and shareholders’ interests but did not provide the full benefits of share ownership (such as dividend and voting rights) unless and until the performance hurdles are met and the Options vest and are exercised.

At the 2019 AGM, shareholders approved a three year mega-grant of Options to the CEO and those Options were granted in December 2019 (“ 2019 Options ”).

Due the impact of COVID-19 on market conditions and the Company’s share price, the Board no longer consider the 2019 Options to be an effective reward or retention mechanism for the executive team. Therefore, the Board intends to cancel the 2019 Options (for no consideration to the participants), and the cancellation takes effect whether or not shareholders approve this resolution.

Following a review of the LTIP and current economic landscape, the Board determined that an annual grant of options is a more effective approach, as it gives the Board flexibility to review and set target/s on an annual basis as circumstances change. In addition, setting measures and hurdles linked to a three-year award is extremely challenging in the current environment.

On that basis, for the FY21 grant to the CEO and key senior executives, the Board has determined that the Options will be granted subject to one performance measure based on satisfaction of a Share Price performance hurdle over a two-year performance period. In setting the target, the Board focused on the alignment with shareholders and rewarding executives based on an increase in the share price of flexigroup .

Approval of participation in the flexigroup Long Term Incentive Plan

Shareholders are being asked to approve the proposed grant of 2,000,000 Options under the flexigroup Long Term Incentive Plan (“ LTIP ”) to Ms James.

The Options are to be granted to Ms James to align the incentive with the strategic time horizon under the Company’s growth and transformation strategy. Options are proposed to be granted because they provide immediate share price exposure but do not provide shareholder entitlement (such as dividends and voting rights) until Options vest and are exercised.

The Board believes that the terms of the overall proposed remuneration, including the terms of the participation in the LTIP, are reasonable in ’s circumstances. flexigroup

The Directors recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution in Item 5 on the basis that the overall proposed remuneration for Ms James, which includes Ms James’ participation in the LTIP, the grant of Options to Ms James under the LTIP and the provision of benefits to Ms James on the terms described in these Explanatory Notes:

  • is reasonable having regard to the circumstances of the Company;

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

  • is consistent with the Company’s remuneration policy, in particular the Company’s policy of linking remuneration to achievement, and the objective of attracting and retaining highly skilled executives and Directors.

The ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th edition) note that equity-based remuneration can be an effective form of remuneration for executives.

The ASX Listing Rules (“ Listing Rules ”) and the Corporations Act set out a number of regulatory requirements which must be satisfied (which are summarised below). However, as Ms James is not a director of the Company, no shareholder approval is required under the ASX Listing Rules in order to grant Options to Ms James. However, shareholder approval is being sought in any event for the proposed grant of Options for transparency and as a matter of good corporate governance.

If approval is not obtained from Shareholders, then the Board will consider whether to proceed with the grant or make the grant on different terms.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING flexigroup 2020

Key terms of the Options grant

The terms of the Options that will be granted to Ms James (subject to shareholder approval) are set out below.

TERM DETAIL DETAIL
Number of
Options
Subject to shareholder approval, Ms James will be granted 2,000,000 Options under the Plan in respect of the long term
component of Ms James’ remuneration package for FY21.
The number of Options has been determined by the Board based on the total Option pool and Ms James’ role in the
growth of the Company and return to shareholders.
The Options will be subject to meeting the performance hurdle over the performance period.
Terms of Options Each Option is a right to acquire one share in the Company. Options vest and become exercisable subject to the
achievement of the performance hurdle set out below and payment of the $1.38 Exercise Price.
Options do not carry any dividend or voting rights.
Options are non-transferable (except in limited circumstances or with the consent of the Board).
Options will expire 5 years from the grant date (to the extent they have not lapsed or been exercised prior to that date).
Date of Grant If shareholder approval is obtained, the Options will be granted following the 2020AGM (but in any event within 12
months of the 2020AGM).
Performance
hurdle and
performance
period
Actual Share Price hurdle
The Options will be subject to a Share Price performance hurdle (Share Price hurdle) over an approximately 2-year
performance period (which ends following the FY22 annual results announcement).
The Share Price hurdle will be tested by measuring the Company’s share price at the end of the performance period,
based on the 20 trading-day VWAP following the FY22 annual results announcement.
The vesting schedule is as follows:
Share rice at the end of the
performance period
% of Options that vest
< $1.50 Nil
$1.50 to $2.00 33-50%
$2.00 to $2.50 50-100%
> $2.50 100%
The Board retains discretion to adjust the Share Price hurdle and/or vesting schedule to ensure that Ms James (and any
other participant) is neither advantaged nor disadvantaged by matters outside management’s infuence that materially
afect achievement of the Share Price hurdle.
Early vesting opportunity during FY21
50% of the Options are eligible to vest earlier than the end of the performance period if the share price reaches $2.00 at
any time prior to 30 June 2021. The $2.00 share price target is tested using a 20 trading-day VWAP.
If the $2.00 share price target is met during FY21, half of the eligible Options (25% of the total Options) will vest
immediately upon meeting the target and the remaining half of the eligible Options (25% of the total Options) will vest at
the end of the performance period, subject to Ms James’ continued employment.
If early vesting occurs, the remaining 50% of the total Options will be tested at the end of the original performance
period and vest to the extent that the Share Price hurdle is achieved in accordance with the above vesting schedule.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020 // 6

TERM DETAIL
Vesting and
Exercise of
Options
To the extent that Options vest, either at the end of the performance period or earlier in FY21 where the $2.00 share
price target is achieved by 30 June 2021, the Options that vest become exercisable.
Upon exercise and payment of the exercise price, the relevant number of Shares will be allocated to the Participant, and
no further trading restrictions will apply to the Shares (subject to the Company’s Trading Policy).
The Board retains discretion to settle Options using new-issue or market purchased shares, or in cash, or by providing
the ‘net’ number of Shares (in which case Ms James will receive the number of Shares equal to the value of Shares that
would have received upon exercise of Options less the total Exercise Price payable).
Cessation of
employment
If Ms James ceases employment with the Company prior to the vesting of Options, the treatment of the Options will
depend on the circumstances of cessation.
Where Ms James ceases employment prior to the vesting of Options due to resignation or termination for cause, all of
her unvested Options will lapse at cessation.
Where Ms James ceases employment for any other reason prior to the vesting of Options, a pro-rata number of Options
(which refects the portion of the performance period served) will stay “on-foot” post-cessation and will be tested against
the performance hurdle at the end of the performance period and may vest at the original vesting date.
To the extent the $2.00 share price target is achieved in FY21, 25% of the total Options (which would otherwise be
subject only to Ms James’ continued employment) would also stay “on-foot” and would vest at the original vesting date
(but would not be subject to the performance hurdle).
If Options do not vest at the end of the performance period, they will lapse (no re-testing occurs).
After ceasing employment, to the extent any Options subsequently vest, Ms James will have 60 days following vesting to
exercise the vested Options.
Cessation following the vesting
If Ms James ceases employment and holds vested Options, Ms James will have 60 days following cessation, or until the
Expiry Date (if earlier), to exercise her Options.
Board discretion
The Board retains discretion to determine an alternate treatment, including to accelerate vesting of the Options.
The accelerated vesting of Options under the LTIP in connection with the cessation of employment will constitute a
termination beneft under the Corporations Act. The value of any such beneft cannot be ascertained as at the date of
this Notice of Meeting. The value of the beneft will depend on:
• the number of Options granted and held by Ms James in accordance with the LTIP;
• the number of Options held by Ms James which the Board determines should vest; and
• the Company’s share price at the time such Options are exercised, and Shares are acquired.
Key matters, events or circumstances which will, or are likely to, afect the calculation of the value of any accelerated
vesting of Options include:
• the fnancial performance of the Company;
• the personal performance of Ms James;
• the number of years of Ms James’ service with the Company;
• the circumstances in which Ms James leaves the Company;
• the proportion of the Performance Period served by Ms James as at the date her employment ceases; and
• performance against the vesting conditions as at the date Ms James’ employment ceases.
Change of Control The Board retains discretion to determine the treatment of unvested Options with respect to a Change of Control.
Where the Board does not exercise its discretion, the Plan Rules provide a default treatment for a pro-rata number of the
unvested Options to vest and become exercisable based on the proportion of the vesting period that has passed at the
time of the event and the extent to which the Performance Conditions have been satisfed at that time.

Part 2D.2.2 of the Corporations Act provides that a company, its associates and any prescribed superannuation fund in connection with the company are prohibited from giving a person who holds a “managerial or executive office” a benefit in connection with their ceasing to hold an office or position of employment with the company unless shareholders approve the giving of the “benefit” or an exemption applies. “Benefit” is defined broadly in the Corporations Act to include most forms of valuable consideration.

Retirement benefits under the Corporations Act include a range of payments or benefits given in connection with a person ceasing to hold an office or position of employment (and whether or not contractually obliged to be given) including termination payments or other benefits such as an accelerated or automatic vesting of sharebased payments at or due to a person ceasing to hold an office or position of employment.

>> Schedule 1: Summary of the LTIP Rules

The LTIP is part of the Company’s remuneration strategy and is designed to align the interests of the Company’s management and shareholders and assist the Company in the attraction, motivation and retention of executives. In particular, the LTIP is designed to provide relevant executives with an incentive for future performance thereby encouraging those executives to remain with the Company and contribute to the future performance of the Company.

Under the LTIP, eligible persons participating in the LTIP may be granted Options on terms and conditions determined by the Board from time to time. An Option is a right to acquire a Share, subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting and/or exercise conditions.

A grant of Options is subject to both the LTIP Rules and the terms of the specific grant as determined by the Board. The Board is responsible for administering the LTIP in accordance with the LTIP Rules and the terms and conditions of specific grants of Options to participants in the LTIP.

Eligibility and Participation

The Board may determine which persons will be eligible to participate in the LTIP from time to time. Eligible persons may be invited to apply to participate in the LTIP. The Board may in its discretion accept such applications.

Options

A person participating in the LTIP (“ Executive ”) may be granted Options on terms and conditions, including tenure conditions and performance hurdles, determined by the Board. The Board will determine the exercise price payable on exercise of a vested Option. The Board may also determine the exercise period of an Option.

Consideration for Grant

The Board may determine the amount (if any) payable for the grant of an Option from time to time.

Vesting

Following the satisfaction of the performance hurdles applying to an Option, the Option vests on, and becomes exercisable on or after, a date predetermined by the Board (“ Vesting Date ”), provided that the Executive remains employed by the Company as at that date.

Automatic and Accelerated Vesting

Unless the Board determines otherwise, early vesting (prior to the relevant Vesting Date) of a pro-rata number of Options will automatically occur if there is a change of control for the purposes of the LTIP Rules.

The Board may, in its discretion, decide to accelerate the vesting of all or part of the Options held by an Executive in specified circumstances including a takeover bid, scheme of arrangement, the death, total and permanent disablement, or cessation of employment for other reasons (e.g. retirement) of that Executive.

Lapse

An unvested Option will lapse on the earliest of:

  • (a) failure to satisfy the vesting conditions prior to the expiry of the exercise period applicable to that Option;

  • (b) the expiry of the exercise period applicable to that Option;

  • (c) an Executive breaching the prohibition against hedging Options;

  • (d) the Executive ceasing to be employed by the Company in accordance with the terms of the grant and the Plan Rules;

  • (e) a variation of capital event (such as a capital reorganisation, share split, etc) occurring in relation to the Company and the Board determining that unvested Options should lapse;

  • (f) the Company disposing of a material business or asset and the Board determining that unvested Options should lapse;

  • (g) a change of control occurring in relation to the Company and the Board determining that unvested Options should lapse; or

  • (h) where, in the opinion of the Board, an Executive has obtained, or may obtain, an unfair benefit or has sustained, or may sustain, a loss as a result of an act of any person which constitutes fraud, dishonesty or breach of obligations (including, without limitation, a material misstatement of financial information) and the Board determining that unvested Options should lapse.

Where an Executive ceases to be an Employee of the Group and at that time holds vested Options, all vested Options must be exercised by the earlier of 60 days following cessation or the Option Expiry Date, or within such other period determined by the Board.

Where a Participant holds a vested Option at the date of a change of control, all vested Options must be exercised by the earlier of 60 days from the date of the change of control or the expiry date, or within such other period determined by the Board.

Exercise

Following the vesting date or the automatic or accelerated vesting of an Option, the vested Option may be exercised by the Executive subject to any exercise conditions and the payment of the exercise price (if any), and the Executive will then be allocated or issued Shares according to the number of Shares comprised in each vested Option exercised by the Executive. The Board retains discretion to settle Options using new-issue or market purchased shares, or in cash, or by providing the ‘net’ number of Shares (in which case Ms James will receive the number of Shares equal to the value of Shares that would have received upon exercise of Options less the total Exercise Price payable).

Delivery of Shares on Exercise of Vested Options

The Board has the discretion to have Shares issued or transferred to an Executive or to the Trustee (on behalf of an Executive) on the exercise of vested Options. Any Shares issued under the LTIP will rank equally with those Shares traded on ASX at the time of issue except for any rights attaching to those Shares by reference to a record date prior to the date of issue.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020 // 10

Malus and Clawback

The Board retains discretion to lapse a number or all of the Options, or request that a Participant repay an amount or transfer a certain number of Shares to the Company where, in the opinion of the Board, an Executive has obtained, or may obtain, an unfair benefit as a result of his or her act which constitutes fraud, or dishonest or gross misconduct in relation to the affairs of the Group or any Group Company, brings the Group or any Group Company into disrepute, is in breach of his or her obligations to the Group or any Group Company, including compliance with any Company Clawback Policy and any other applicable Company policy, constitutes a failure to perform any other act reasonably and lawfully requested of the Executive or has the effect of delivering strong Company performance in a manner which is unsustainable or involves unacceptably high risk, and results or is likely to result in a detrimental impact on Company performance following the end of a period.

Adjustment

In the event of any capital reorganisation by the Company (including any bonus issues and rights issues) or a change of control, an Executive’s Options and the Shares allocated to the Executive on exercise of the Executive’s Options, will be adjusted as set out in the LTIP Rules and otherwise in accordance with the Listing Rules. In general, it is intended that the Executive will not receive any advantage or disadvantage from such adjustment.

Restrictions on Transfer of Options

An Executive may not dispose of, deal in, or grant a security interest over any interest in, an Option without the prior consent of the Board, which may be given subject to such conditions as the Board sees fit in relation to the proposed dealing. The transfer or transmission of an Option is permitted where it is effected by force of law, on death of an Executive to the Executive’s legal representative.

Administration of the LTIP

Any power or discretion of the Board conferred under the LTIP Rules may be delegated by the Board to a committee consisting of the Company’s officers and/or employees, a related body corporate and/ or a third party for such periods, and on such conditions, as the Board sees fit.

The Board may at any time, by written instrument, amend all or any of the provisions of the LTIP Rules including with retrospective effect. Any amendment to the LTIP Rules must not materially reduce the rights of any participant as those rights existed before the date of the amendment (with limited exceptions).

The Board may suspend or terminate the LTIP at any time. The suspension or termination of the LTIP must not prejudice the existing rights (if any) of Executives. The Board may also amend the LTIP Rules, provided that subject to specified exceptions, there is no reduction of the rights of Executives in respect of Shares allocated or Options granted under the LTIP prior to the date of such amendment.
