Shareholders are advised that the vote on this item is advisory only and does not bind the directors or the Company.

A reasonable opportunity will be given to shareholders as a whole at the meeting to ask questions about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

4 Resolution 4 - Approval for the grant of FY10 Performance Rights to Anthony James Lennon ("Lennon") under the Peet Limited Performance Rights Plan ("PRP")

Shareholder approval is sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and all other purposes for the granting of 118,098 FY10 Performance Rights to Lennon (National Business Development Director) under the PRP.

At the 2009 Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), shareholders approved the granting of FY10 Performance Rights to Mr Brendan Gore, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Peet ("Gore"). The FY10 Performance Rights were granted to Gore on 11 February 2010 on the terms and conditions approved by shareholders.

In June 2010, members of Gore's Executive Team – whose details are provided in the 2010 Annual Report – were granted FY10 Performance Rights on the same terms and conditions as Gore (except as to quantum and grant date).

Lennon, being a member of the Executive Team, was invited to apply for a grant of FY10 Performance Rights on the same basis as other members of the Executive Team, except that his grant is subject to shareholder approval.

A summary of the terms of the FY10 Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Lennon is shown below:

Security Vesting Term ExercisePrice PerformanceConditions1
Performance Rights 3 years $0.00 NOPAT Growth
FUM Growth
  1. Refer to discussion following on Performance Conditions.

Performance conditions

The Performance Conditions in respect to the FY10 Performance Rights will be measured over the three-year period from 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2012 ("FY10 Performance Period").

The measures used to determine performance are Net Operating Profit after Tax ("NOPAT") Growth and Funds under Management ("FUM") Growth.

The vesting of 50% of the FY10 Performance Rights granted to Lennon will be subject to the NOPAT Growth condition, while the remaining 50% of the FY10 Performance Rights will be subject to the FUM Growth condition.

NOPAT Growth

NOPAT is the net operating profit after tax, excluding the write-down in carrying value of inventories.

NOPAT Growth will be measured as the average increase in NOPAT over the FY10 Performance Period.

Of the FY10 Performance Rights to be issued subject to the NOPAT Growth condition, the proportion to vest will be as follows:

Performance Level 3-year NOPAT Growth target ProportionofPerformanceRights that may be eligible tovest
Less than the target Less than 8%p.a. Nil
Target 8%p.a. 25%
Target - Maximum 8%p.a. - 12%p.a. Proportion of NOPAT Growthgrant vesting increases in astraight line between 25% and100%.
Maximum Greater than 12%p.a. 100%

FUM Growth

FUM Growth will be measured as the cumulative value of properties:

  • acquired by Peet on balance sheet and subsequently sold into a Peet syndicate; or
  • funded by way of a Peet syndicate; or
  • for which Peet has been appointed development manager,

during the FY10 Performance Period.

The aggregate of the FUM Growth during the FY10 Performance Period is then compared to the FUM Growth target set by the Board.

The Board will review the FUM Growth targets each year and determine what particular activities can or can't be included in such targets, for the subsequent three-year performance period.

For example, the FUM Growth targets set in respect to the FY10 Performance Rights include the recently announced Peet Yanchep Land Syndicate, which is specifically excluded from the FY11 Performance Rights FUM Growth targets (refer below).

Performance Level Aggregate FUM Growth targetduring FY10 Performance Period ProportionofPerformanceRights that may be eligible tovest
Less than the target Less than $60 million 0%
Target $60 million 50%
Target - Maximum $60 million – $100 million. Proportion of FUM Growth grantvesting increases in a straightline between 50% and 100%.
Maximum Greater than $100 million 100%

Of the half of the FY10 Performance Rights to be issued subject to the FUM Growth condition, the proportion to vest will be as follows:

5 Resolutions 5 and 6 - Approval for the grant of FY11 Performance Rights to Brendan Gore ("Gore") and Anthony James Lennon ("Lennon") under the Peet Limited Performance Rights Plan ("PRP")

Shareholder approval is sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and all other purposes for the granting of 826,045 FY11 Performance Rights to Gore (Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company); and 112,245 FY11 Performance Rights to Lennon (National Business Development Director) under the PRP.

A summary of the terms of the FY11 Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Gore and Lennon is shown below:

Security Vesting Term Exercise Price Performance Conditions1
Performance Rights 3 years $0.00 NOPAT GrowthROE
  1. Refer to discussion following on Performance Conditions.

Performance conditions

The Performance Conditions will be measured over a three-year period from 1 July 2010 to 30 June 2013 ("FY11 Performance Period").

The measures used to determine performance are Funds under Management ("FUM") Growth and Relative Return on Shareholders' Equity based on the S&P/ASX 200 Industrials ("ROE").

The vesting of 50% of the FY11 Performance Rights granted to Gore and Lennon will be subject to the FUM Growth condition, while the remaining 50% of the FY11 Performance Rights will be subject to the ROE condition.

FUM Growth

The FUM Growth condition applying to the FY11 Performance Rights will be on the same criteria as for the FY10 Performance Rights. Refer to the disclosure at section 4 of this Explanatory Memorandum.

ROE

ROE will be measured as the average net profit after tax (NPAT) over three years (i.e. the FY11 Performance Period), divided by the average starting and ending equity. The calculation of ROE does not consider "underlying" NPAT (i.e. it does not exclude writedowns).

The Board will have discretion to amend the calculation of ROE to take account of capital raisings, approved by the Board for the long term benefit of the Company, but which would impact the calculation of ROE.

The Company's ROE will then be compared to the ROE of the S&P/ASX 200 Industrials.

Of the half of the FY11 Performance Rights to be issued subject to the ROE condition, the proportion to vest will be as follows:

Performance Level ROE result compared to S&P/ASX200 Industrials ProportionofPerformanceRights that may be eligible tovest
Less than the target Below 50th percentile 0%
Target Equal to 50th percentile 50%
Target - Maximum Between 50th and 70th percentile ProportionofROEgrantvesting increases in a straightline between 50% and 100%.
Maximum Greater than 70th percentile. 100%

6 ASX Listing Rule 10.14 approval

Broadly, ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a company must obtain shareholder approval if it wishes to grant Performance Rights under an "employee incentive scheme" to a Director of the Company.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14, the PRP is an "employee incentive scheme". Accordingly, the grant of Performance Rights (i.e. the FY10 and FY11 Performance Rights and shares issued following the vesting of those Performance Rights under the PRP) to Gore and Lennon requires separate shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided:

(i) If the person to whom the securities will be issued is not a director, a statement of the relationship between the person and the director

  • Gore is the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
  • Lennon is an executive director carrying the title of National Business Development Director.

(ii) The maximum number of securities that may be acquired by all persons for whom approval is required and the formula for calculating the number of securities to be issued

The maximum aggregate number of securities that may be issued to Gore and Lennon if Resolutions 4 to 6 (inclusive) are passed is 1,056,388 Performance Rights.

Level of participation

The level of participation offered to Gore and Lennon under the PRP has been determined with reference to market practice and within Peet's remuneration policies as set out in the Remuneration Report.

  • The Long Term Incentive amount for Gore is 100% of his current fixed pay of $850,000.
  • The Long Term Incentive amount for Lennon is 30% of his current fixed pay of $385,000.

The number of FY10 Performance Rights allocated to Lennon was determined by dividing his Long Term Incentive amount by the estimated fair value of a Performance Right at 6 October 2009, which was calculated to be $0.978. This valuation was used as it is consistent with the valuation used to allocate FY10 Performance Rights to Gore and the rest of his Executive Team.

The number of FY11 Performance Rights allocated to Gore and Lennon was determined by dividing their respective Long Term Incentive amount by the estimated fair value of a Performance Right at 20 September 2010, which was calculated to be $1.029.

Valuation

The Company commissioned external advisers to provide an indicative value of the FY10 and FY11 Performance Rights the subject of Resolutions 4 to 6 (inclusive).

The fair value of a FY10 Performance Right is based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the fair value of a FY11 Performance Right is based on a Binomial pricing model as calculated by separate external advisers. These have then been discounted to reflect the probability of achieving the relevant performance hurdles, as at the date of the valuation.

A summary of the inputs and assumptions adopted by the external advisers is contained in the following table:

PerformanceRight ExpiryDate AssumedExerciseDate UnderlyingSharePrice ExercisePrice DividendYield Risk FreeRate Volatility
FY10 1 06/10/12 06/10/12 $1.83 $0.00 4.00% 4.77% 40%-45%
FY11 2 20/09/15 20/09/13 $1.95 $0.00 4.27% 4.74% 40%
  1. Fair value based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

  2. Fair value based on a Binomial pricing model.

(iii) The price, or the formula for calculating the price, for each security to be acquired under the PRP

No payment is required for the grant of a FY10 or FY11 Performance Right or for the issue of the relevant shares upon vesting of the same.

(iv) The names of all persons referred to in ASX Listing Rule 10.14 who received securities under the PRP since the last approval, the number of the securities received, and acquisition price for each security

None of the persons referred to in ASX Listing Rule 10.14 have received securities under the PRP since the last approval date.

The Directors mentioned in the table below are the only persons referred to in Listing Rule 10.14 who have previously received securities under the PRP.

The Performance Rights referred to in the table below do not form part of the Performance Rights the subject of Resolutions 4 to 6 (inclusive).

Remuneration

For those shareholders that have elected not to receive the 2010 Annual Report, an electronic copy can be found on the Company's website at www.peet.com.au.

8 Directors' recommendation about the proposed Resolutions and interest in the outcome of the proposed Resolutions

Lennon has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 4 and 6, and accordingly abstains from making a recommendation in respect of those Resolutions.

Gore has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 5, and accordingly abstains from making a recommendation in respect of that Resolution.

The Board (with Lennon abstaining) recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 4 and 6.

The Board (with Gore abstaining) recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.

These recommendations are made on the basis that several benefits will flow to the Company by issuing Performance Rights to Gore and Lennon under the PRP, including the following:

  • (i) PRPs are a common and effective means of motivating and improving the performance of senior executives.
  • (ii) It will ensure that the interests of executives, such as Gore and Lennon, are aligned with the interests of shareholders.
  • (iii) The PRP is designed to provide an incentive for future performance with restrictions on securities vesting under the PRP Rules encouraging executives, such as Gore and Lennon, to remain with the Peet Group.

The Board considers the targets set for the vesting conditions to have an appropriate balance between being:

  • (i) achievable and therefore incentivising Gore and Lennon; and
  • (ii) challenging to ensure Gore's and Lennon's performance is appropriately remunerated and their interests are aligned to those of shareholders.
