Explanatory memorandum

Shareholders are referred to the Explanatory Memorandum accompanying and forming part of this Notice of Meeting.

Entitlement to Vote

Snapshot time

It has been determined (in accordance with Corporations Regulations 7.11.37) that for the purposes of the Meeting, shares will be taken to be held by the persons who are the registered shareholders at 7.00 p.m. (AEDST) on Monday 19 October 2015. Accordingly, share transfers registered after that time will be disregarded in determining entitlements to attend and vote at the meeting.

Important information concerning proxy votes for Resolutions 3 and 4

The Corporations Act places certain restrictions on the ability of key management personnel and their closely related parties to vote on the advisory resolution to adopt the Company’s remuneration report and resolutions connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of the Company’s key management personnel. Key management personnel of the Company are the directors of the Company and those other persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly. Members of key management personnel include directors (both executive and non-executive) and certain senior executives. The Remuneration Report identifies the Company’s key management personnel for the financial year ended 30 June 2015. Their closely related parties are defined in the Corporations Act, and include certain members of their family, dependants and companies they control.

For these reasons, shareholders who intend to vote by proxy should carefully consider the identity of their proxy and are encouraged to direct their proxy as to how to vote on all resolutions. In particular, shareholders who intend to appoint the Chairman of the meeting as their proxy (including an appointment by default) are encouraged to direct the Chairman as to how to vote on all resolutions. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of each of the Resolutions 3 and 4.

If you do appoint the Chairman as your proxy but you do not direct the Chairman how to vote in respect of Resolutions 3 and 4, your election to appoint the Chairman as your proxy will be deemed to constitute an express authorisation by you directing the Chairman to vote your proxy in favour of all of Resolutions 3 and 4 (unless you have exercised your right to direct the Chairman otherwise in respect of a particular Resolution by marking the ‘against’ or ‘abstain’ column in respect of any of the relevant resolutions). This express authorisation

Business

acknowledges that the Chairman may vote your proxy even if he or she has an interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 and 4 and even if the Resolutions are connected directly or indirectly with remuneration of a member of the key management personnel of the Company and accordingly your votes will be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called.

Voting by Proxy

Sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act apply to voting by proxy. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of the requirements under the Corporations Act, as they will apply to this meeting. Broadly:

  • if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and,

  • any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.

You should seek professional advice if you need any further information on this issue.

In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, members are advised of the following:

  • A shareholder entitled to attend and vote has a right to appoint a proxy to attend and vote instead of the shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder and can be either an individual or a representative of a body corporate.

  • A proxy need not vote on a show of hands, however if a proxy does vote on a show of hands, the proxy must vote as directed.

  • A shareholder entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If no proportion or number is specified, each proxy may exercise half of the shareholder’s votes. If a shareholder appoints two or more proxies that specify different ways to vote on a resolution, none of the proxies may vote on a show of hands.

  • • If an appointed proxy is not also the Chairman of the meeting, the proxy need not vote on a poll, however if the proxy does vote on a poll the proxy must vote as directed by the shareholder. If a poll is conducted and the proxy holder does not vote, the proxy appointment defaults to the Chairman of the meeting to vote as directed. If the appointed proxy is the Chairman of the meeting, the proxy must vote on a poll in the manner directed by the shareholder.

A Proxy Form accompanies this Notice and to be effective must be received at least 48 hours before the appointed time of the meeting at the Company’s corporate registry:

Re-election Recommendation

Mr Lonie, Mr Mansbridge and Mr Hampton, as retiring Directors, have been endorsed by the Board for re-election at this meeting.

The Directors (excluding, in respect of each resolution, the retiring Director) recommend supporting the re-election of the Directors standing for re-election. The Directors make this recommendation on the basis of their review of the performance of the Directors, which was carried out in accordance with the Board’s governance policies.

The Corporations Act requires the agenda for an Annual General Meeting to include a resolution that the Remuneration Report be put to the vote. Should 25% or more of the votes cast on this resolution (votes cast in person or by proxy) to approve the Remuneration Report be against approval of that report, then at the 2016 Annual General Meeting the resolution to approve next year’s Remuneration Report must be approved by more than 75% of the votes cast to avoid a resolution being put to the 2016 Annual General Meeting to hold a further general meeting within 90 days to consider a spill of the Board.

A reasonable opportunity for discussion of, and comment on, the Remuneration Report will be provided by the Chairman at the Annual General Meeting.

Resolution Recommendation

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in his or her own remuneration from the Company as set out in the Remuneration report, the Directors recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report.

Voting

To be successfully re-elected as a Director, a candidate must receive more votes ‘For’ than ‘Against’.

Item 4 – Approval of Managing Director’s participation in the Executive Long Term Incentive Plan (ELTIP)

The performance period for the shares in respect of the 2015 ELTIP offer will be 1 July 2015 – 30 June 2018.

  • Explains the differences between the basis for remunerating non-executive directors and executives, including any executive directors.

6

Explanatory Memorandum

General explanations of the Managing Director’s current remuneration arrangements were previously released to the Australian Securities Exchange.

The resolution set out in Item 4 is in accordance with the Company’s policies on total remuneration arrangements for the Managing Director, as described in the following section. The Company’s Remuneration Policy is available on the Company’s website.

Basis of Employment of the Managing Director

To assist in achieving the objectives of the Company, the Group Remuneration Committee ( GRemC ) links the nature and amount of the Managing Director’s emoluments to the Company’s financial and operational performance. The remuneration of the Managing Director may comprise one or more of the following:

  • fixed annual remuneration (inclusive of superannuation and fringe benefits) ( FAR );

  • cash based short term incentive ( STI ); and

  • executive long term incentive plan ( ELTIP ).

i. Fixed Annual Remuneration

The FAR is paid by way of cash salary, superannuation and fringe benefits and is reviewed annually by the GRemC. In addition, external consultants provide analysis and advice to ensure remuneration is competitive in the marketplace.

iii. Executive Long Term Incentive Plan (ELTIP)

The ELTIP was established by the Board to encourage a greater involvement in the achievement of the Company’s objectives. An ELTIP offer may be made to the Managing Director every year as determined by the Board. It provides for the issue of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company if performance criteria specified by the Board are satisfied in a set performance period. The maximum value of the any ELTIP offer to the Managing Director is 50% of FAR and is at the absolute discretion of the Board. The value of the offer is converted into fully paid ordinary shares based upon the weighted average price of the Company’s shares over a twenty trading day period to be determined by the Board.

In order for the shares to vest, certain performance criteria must be satisfied within a predetermined performance period. Both the performance criteria and the performance period are set by the Board, at its absolute discretion. The Board has, for the time being, set the three financial years, commencing with the year in which an offer is made under the plan as the performance period, with relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) and absolute Return on Equity (ROE) as the performance criteria.

ii. Cash Based Short Term Incentive

The STI is calculated as a percentage of the FAR and is payable annually in respect of each financial year as cash and/or superannuation contributions. The maximum STI that may be awarded to the Managing Director is 50% of FAR. Payment of STI is conditional upon the achievement of pre-determined performance criteria tailored to the role and is at the absolute discretion of the Board.

Each year, the Board approves the Key Performance Indicators ( KPIs ) for the Managing Director following a recommendation from the GRemC. The GRemC selects performance objectives which provide a robust link between reward and the key drivers of long term shareholder value. The KPIs are measures relating to Company and personal performance accountabilities and include financial, strategic, operational, cultural and customer/stakeholder measures.
