The Board (with the relevant Director in relation to their own election or re-election abstaining) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 1, 2, 3 and 4.

3. Resolution 5 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

The Annual Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 contains a Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Director’s Report and sets out the remuneration policy for the consolidated entity comprising the Company and its controlled entities and reports on the remuneration arrangements in place for its KMP.

Mayne Pharma’s executive remuneration framework is focused on aligning Shareholder and management interest by adopting a remuneration policy with a significant weighting to at-risk and long-term incentives (LTI). Executive pay design comprises market competitive fixed annual remuneration combined with the opportunity to build wealth together with Shareholders through the long-term incentive (LTI) program.

Mayne Pharma removed short-term incentives for senior executives from 1 July 2015 leading to a greater proportion of total remuneration in the form of LTI with performance hurdles aligned to Shareholders’ interests. An equity based LTI is important to ensure close alignment with Shareholders and motivates executives to focus on corporate strategies that will deliver long-term growth of Shareholder value. Executives only receive a benefit from the LTI program if the share price increases, with vesting occurring at continuously increasing performance hurdles.

The Company has two LTI plans for executives – the Executive Share Loan Scheme (ESLS) and the Performance Rights and Option Plan (PROP). The ESLS was introduced in FY15 and effectively operates like a 5-year option. In FY20, the PROP was extended to allow the issue of performance rights which has assisted the Board to manage dilution concerns arising under the ESLS.

The challenges faced by Mayne Pharma over the last five years are reflected in the financial results of the Company and remuneration outcomes for executives. Since the introduction of the share loan scheme program in FY15, only 84,999 loan shares have been exercised and 77 million loan shares have expired or been forfeited. The statutory non-cash cost of the share loan scheme program has been more than $40 million since its inception (FY15-FY21) with 0% dilution to shareholders today.

At the last test date on 1 September 2021, no LTI instruments (loan shares, performance rights or options) were 'in the money', which demonstrates the strong alignment of the LTI program with shareholder value creation. Furthermore, at this test date, whilst there were 148.5 million LTI instruments outstanding representing a theoretical dilution of 8.2%, the actual dilution to Shareholders from these LTI instruments is 0%.

The Remuneration Report also includes information on the elements of remuneration that are performance based, the performance conditions that apply and the methodology used to assess satisfaction of those performance conditions.

The vote on Resolution 5 to adopt the Remuneration Report relates to the Company’s remuneration policy and outcomes for the 2021 financial year.

9 Mayne Pharma Notice of Annual General Meeting 2021

==> picture [146 x 33] intentionally omitted <==

During this item, there will be an opportunity for Shareholders at the meeting to comment on and ask questions about the Remuneration Report, and Shareholders are asked to adopt the Remuneration Report.

The vote on the resolution in this item is advisory and will not bind the Directors of Mayne Pharma. The Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing remuneration practices and policies of the Company.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.

4. Long term remuneration for Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director

CEO remuneration and LTI participation and grant value

Recognising the challenges Mayne Pharma has faced, Mr Richards’ fixed annual remuneration (FAR) inclusive of superannuation has remained constant from FY19-FY22 and the value of the LTI grant award (or value of options at grant date) as outlined in the FY21 Remuneration Report has declined by 28%:

$m FY19 FY20 FY21 Change
FY19-FY21
CEO’s LTI grant award value1 1.87 1.69 1.36 (28%)
  1. Option fair value as disclosed in the FY21 Remuneration Report

The reduction in LTI grant value reflects several changes made to the LTI scheme over the last two years:

  • Increase in the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) hurdles for LTI instruments to vest. The hurdles have increased to 8% for minimum vesting (previously 5%) and 15% for maximum vesting (previously 10%). These hurdle rates continuously compound annually over the 5-year period.

  • Reduction in the proportion of LTI instruments that vest at the minimum performance hurdle. Achievement of the minimum performance hurdle (8% TSR CAGR) results in 20% of a tranche vesting (previously 50%). Achievement of the maximum performance hurdle (15% TSR CAGR) results in 100% of a tranche vesting. Vesting will occur on a straight-line basis for performance between these two points.

  • Reduction in the loan multiplier that applied to loan shares issued under the ESLS. The multiplication factor that applied to the loan shares participation value reduced from 3.02 times to 1.92 times, which effectively reduced the number of loan shares granted by 36%.

In the last two years, Mr Richards’ FY15-FY17 loan share grants have lapsed as they did not meet vesting conditions or expired unexercised as they were ‘out of the money’:

Grant Number Grantprice Expiry
FY15 3,823,529 $0.6815 Lapsed in January2020
FY16 2,553,496 $1.2300 Lapsed in August 2020
FY17 2,242,005 $1.5760 Lapsed in July2021

For further information on Mr Richards’ remuneration arrangements refer to the FY21 Remuneration Report.

It is proposed that Mr Richards receive LTI equity interests in the Company with a total participation value of $2 million which is 200% of his FAR of $1 million (inclusive of superannuation), consistent with the LTI participation rate and amount in the prior three years. Mr Richards’ remuneration does not include any form of short-term incentive and he has not realised any cash benefit to date from the LTI grants issued between FY15 and FY21.

The Board recommends that Mr Richards’ LTI interests for this financial year be 100% performance rights to manage shareholder dilution concerns. The number of Performance Rights allocated is determined by dividing the participation value by the higher of: (1) the 5-day VWAP of Shares at the grant date; or (2) $0.33, which is the base test price used for the FY22 LTI grant issued to other senior executives in September 2021.

Mayne Pharma Notice of Annual General Meeting 2021 10

Resolution 6 - Issue of Performance Rights under the PROP to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, shareholder approval is required in order for a Director to be issued securities under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, Shareholders are asked to approve the issue of Performance Rights under the PROP to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Mr Scott Richards.

Broadly, Performance Rights will give participants an interest in the value of underlying Shares, subject to the satisfaction of key vesting conditions. Performance Rights are eligible for vesting over a period of up to five years, subject to the achievement of the specified vesting condition hurdles. The Board believes that equity-based longterm incentives are important to ensure an appropriate part of the executive’s reward is linked to generating longterm returns for Shareholders.

In FY20, the Performance Rights and Option Plan was extended to allow the issue of performance rights. Mr Richards has received 3,681,297 Performance Rights at no cost under the PROP, following shareholder approval at the 2019 and 2020 AGMs. The PROP participants currently include the CEO, CFO and select senior management. It is not intended that Non-Executive Directors will participate in the PROP.

An overview of the key terms of the proposed PROP grant to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director is set out below.

et out below.
Date of
allocation
If Shareholders approve Resolution 6, it is expected that Performance Rights will be allocated
no later than 30 days after the 2021 AGM.
Key terms of
PROP
It is proposed that Mr Richards will be issued with Performance Rights under the PROP. If the
vesting criteria are met:
1. While Mr Richards resides in the US, the Performance Rights will be automatically
exercised at the date they vest; and
2. The Company’s intention is to settle the Performance Rights by providing Mr Richards
with one fully paid ordinary share for each vested Performance Right, with Mr Richards
expected to sell a portion of these Shares to meet withholding tax obligations.
Alternatively, the Company may “net settle” with Mr Richards, so that the Company pays
the relevant tax directly to the tax authorities and provides Mr Richards with the after-
tax number of Shares.
Mr Richards will not have any voting rights or rights to dividends from a Performance Right,
unless and until they are exercised and satisfied by the provision of Shares.
The amount of Mr Richards' participation in the PROP is set by reference to the dollar amount
of his PROP participation (see the 'Number and price of Performance Rights' section below).
Number and
price of
Performance
Rights
The value of Mr Richards’ annual PROP participation is 200% of his fixed remuneration.
The dollar amount of his PROP participation is $2,000,000.
The number of Performance Rights allocated is determined by dividing the PROP participation
amount by the higher of the 5-day VWAP at the grant date of the Performance Rights or $0.33.
The maximum number of Performance Rights that can be issued is 6,060,606.
Performance
Conditions
Performance Rights issued to Mr Richards will vest where an absolute TSR growth condition is
met over the applicable period (up to five years).
20% of the Performance Rights will vest for compound annual absolute TSR growth of 8%. All
of the Performance Rights will vest for compound annual absolute TSR growth of 15% . Vesting
will occur on a straight-line basis for performance between these two points.
The Board chose the absolute TSR growth targets to align executive reward with what the
Board considers to be acceptable levels of return to Shareholders (ie between 8% and 15%
compound annual growth).
The TSR growth may be adjusted in the event of certain corporate actions (in a manner to be
determined by the Board). Such corporate actions include a share dividend, share
consolidation or share split,spin-off/demerger,rights issue and a convertible note conversion.

The Board considered the use of a relative performance condition but does not consider that
there are a sufficient number of appropriate comparator pharmaceutical companies (ie of
similar size)listed in Australia.
Performance
Period
If the performance conditions are met, the Performance Rights will vest progressively at
continuously increasing hurdles. Vesting can occur over a period of up to five years from grant
with 20% eligible for vesting after the first test date, 30% eligible after the second test date
and the balance eligible for vesting after the third test date, subject to the achievement of the
TSR target.
This progressive vesting schedule provides a rolling benefit over the three-year period in the
absence of a short-term incentive.
Vesting can occur annually for eligible Performance Rights in years 1 to 3 from the date of the
grant, and then six monthly in years 4 and 5, but the TSR vesting condition continues to
compound each year.
The test dates for the Performance Rights issued under the PROP have been set at 1 September
eachyear.
Trading
restrictions
The Performance Rights are not able to be sold or transferred by Mr Richards.
The Performance Rights do not give Mr Richards any rights to a Share unless and until the
vesting conditions for the Performance Rights are met and Shares are allocated on exercise..
Disposal of Shares allocated on exercise of Performance Rights are subject to the Company’s
SecurityTradingPolicywhilst Mr Richards is an employee.
Cessation of
employment
If Mr Richards ceases employment the treatment of unvested Performance Rights depends on
a range of factors, such as the reason for Mr Richards’ departure, and his tenure. For example,
if Mr Richards ceases employment by reason of retirement, redundancy or another ‘Good
Leaver’ category determined by the Board, Mr Richards will retain unvested Performance
Rights subject to the original terms and conditions of the award, including testing and
expiration dates.
To the extent permitted by law, the Board may elect to settle any Performance Rights vesting
bywayof a cashpayment(rather than Shares).
Change of
control
If a change of control occurs and the Company’s share price has increased according to the
growth targets outlined in the ‘Performance Conditions’ section above, any Performance
Rights will vest in the proportions set out above (eg if the Company’s share price had achieved
8% growth per annum, 20% of any unvested Rights would vest on the change of control). If
any Rights do not automatically vest, the Board may otherwise determine that some of all of
those Rights vest.

Details of any securities issued under the PROP will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which the securities were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14 as required.

Any persons covered by ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and not named in this Notice may not participate in the PROP until approval is obtained for them under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

If Shareholders do not approve this resolution, the Performance Rights will not be issued.

The Board (with Mr Richards abstaining) considers the issue of Performance Rights under the PROP to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director appropriate in all the circumstances and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6.
