Performance Conditions

The Performance Conditions will be measured over a three-year period from 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2024 ("FY22 Performance Period").

The measures used to determine performance are earnings per share ("EPS") growth and funds under management ("FUM") growth.

The vesting of 75% of the FY22 PRs proposed to be granted will be subject to the EPS growth condition and the vesting of the remaining 25% to the FUM growth condition.

EPS growth

The EPS growth condition will be measured as the average growth in operating EPS over the FY22 Performance Period, with the operating EPS derived for FY21 as the base year.

The earnings component of EPS is calculated as net profit measured in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, excluding write-downs of inventories and development costs and increases in the carrying value of inventories during the relevant financial year, and is subject to other adjustments at the Board's discretion.

EPS growth is then compared to the Board's internal target EPS growth for the FY22 Performance Period ("EPS Target").

The proportion of EPS growth-related FY22 PRs to vest will be as detailed in Table 2.

Report following the end of the FY22 Performance Period.
The actual performance against the EPS Target will be reported to shareholders in the Company's Remuneration

FUM growth

FUM growth is measured as the total of the following:

  • (a) the purchase price (ex GST) of land acquired by a Peet syndicate or joint venture;
  • (b) the market value (ex GST) of land for which Peet has been appointed development manager at the time of its appointment;
  • (c) the selling price (ex GST) of land sold by Peet, a Peet syndicate, a Peet joint venture or other Peet-managed project, to a third-party and where Peet is appointed the development manager (and where applicable, to manage the leasing) of a commercial, industrial, retail or residential built-form project on that property; and
  • (d) in all other property funds management-related transactions, as determined by the Board,

during the FY22 Performance Period.

The FUM growth during the FY22 Performance Period is reduced by the equity interest retained by Peet and is then compared to the rolling three-year FUM growth target ("FUM Target") set by the Board.

The proportion of FUM growth-related FY22 PRs to vest will be as detailed in Table 3.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 approval

Peet is seeking shareholder approval for the proposed grant of the FY22 PRs under the PPRP to Gore, the terms of which are contained in Table 1 above.

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 PPRP is an "employee incentive scheme". Accordingly, the proposed grant of the FY22 PRs, and any shares acquired or issued following any vesting and exercise of the FY22 PRs under the PPRP, to Gore requires shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

Resolution 4 seeks the required shareholder approval to the grant of the FY22 PRs under and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

While it is the intention of the Board to meet the vesting and exercise of FY22 PRs with the on-market acquisition of shares in Peet, the Board wishes to retain the flexibility to meet any vesting of FY22 PRs with the issue of new shares in Peet.

If shareholder approval is obtained, it is intended that the FY22 PRs will be granted to Gore as soon as possible following the AGM and, in any event, within 12 months of the AGM. If shareholder approval is not obtained, the Board will consider alternative arrangements to appropriately remunerate and incentivise Gore.

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

(i) The name of the person being issued securities under the PPRP

The FY22 PRs are to be granted to Gore, who is the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

(ii) Which category in ASX Listing Rules 10.14.1 - 10.14.3 the person falls within and why

The person to be granted FY22 PRs, Gore, falls within ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1 as he is the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

(iii) The number and class of securities proposed to be issued to the person under the PPRP for which approval is being sought

The maximum aggregate number of securities that may be granted to Gore if Resolution 4 is passed is 892,667 FY22 PRs.

(iv) Details (including the amount) of the director's current total remuneration package

Level of participation

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

Gore's remuneration package for FY22 comprises fixed remuneration (including superannuation) of \$937,300, maximum short-term incentive (at risk) of \$937,300 and long-term incentive ("LTI") (at risk) of \$937,300.

The number of FY22 PRs allocated to Gore was determined by dividing his LTI amount by the calculated fair value of a FY22 PR at 14 July 2021.

(v) The number of securities under the PPRP that have previously been issued to the person under the PPRP and the average acquisition price (if any) paid by the person for those securities

Gore has previously been granted 12,777,182 PRs under the PPRP since 2008, which is the first year of grants of PRs under the PPRP. There was no price paid on the grant of these PRs.

(vi) A summary of the material terms of the securities to be issued under the PPRP

Please refer to Table 1 for a summary of the material terms of the FY22 PRs to be issued under the PPRP.

The Company grants PRs for LTI purposes because it believes that they create share price alignment between participants and ordinary shareholders but do not provide participants with the full benefits of share ownership (such as dividend and voting rights) unless and until the PRs vest and are exercised by the participant.

The Company commissioned an external adviser to calculate the fair value of a FY22 PR.

The fair value of a FY22 PR is based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model and has been calculated at \$1.05 at the valuation date of 14 July 2021, valuing the FY22 PRs proposed to be granted to Gore at \$937,300.

(vii) The date or dates on or which the Company will issue the securities to the person under the PPRP

Assuming shareholder approval is obtained, the FY22 PRs are intended to be granted as soon as possible following the AGM and, in any event, within 12 months of the AGM.

(viii) The price at which the Company will issue the securities to the person under the PPRP

There is no price payable on the grant of FY22 PRs.

(ix) A summary of the material terms of the PPRP

The material terms of the PPRP include, among other matters:

  • (a) The Board may, from time to time, in its absolute discretion grant PRs to Eligible Executives upon the terms set out in the PPRP and upon such additional terms and Performance Conditions as the Board determines.
  • (b) The Board is required to notify Eligible Executives of the terms and conditions of any grant of PRs.
  • (c) PRs granted under the PPRP can only be transferred with the prior consent of the Board or by force of law upon death to the participant's legal personal representative or upon bankruptcy to the participant's trustee in bankruptcy.
  • (d) The vesting and exercise of any PRs granted under the PPRP will be effected in the form and manner determined by the Board.
  • (e) PRs confer no right to vote, attend meetings, participate in a distribution of profit or a return of capital or any other participating rights or entitlements on the participant unless and until the PRs are exercised and the underlying shares are allocated/acquired.
  • (f) Unvested PRs will lapse upon the earliest to occur of a number of circumstances, including up to the 15-year anniversary of the relevant grant.
  • (g) Subject to the terms of individual employment agreements, the Board has a certain level of discretion in determining the vesting or otherwise of PRs on the termination of a participant's employment.
  • (h) The Board has the discretion to deem that unvested PRs have lapsed, where a participant acts fraudulently or dishonestly; or is in breach of his or her obligations to Peet.
  • (i) The Board has discretion to either issue new shares or acquire existing shares on market in response to the exercise of vested PRs.
  • (j) The Board has discretion to impose any restrictions on shares issued or transferred to a participant on vesting and exercise of PRs.
  • (k) Subject to the terms of individual employment agreements, in the event of a takeover or other change of control-type transaction, the Board has discretion to determine that all or a specified number of a participant's PRs (whether granted or that the Company is contractually obligated to grant to an Eligible Executive) vest.

  • (l) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the PPRP, the Board may at any time waive in whole or in part any terms or conditions (including any performance condition or exercise restriction) in relation to any PRs granted to any participant.

  • (m) Subject to (n) below and the ASX Listing Rules, the Board may at any time by resolution amend or add to all or any of the provisions of the Plan, or the terms or conditions of any PR granted under the PPRP.
  • (n) Without the consent of the participant, no amendment may be made to the terms of any granted PR which reduces the rights of the participant in respect of that PR, other than an amendment introduced primarily:
  • (i) for the purpose of complying with or conforming to present or future State or Commonwealth legislation governing or regulating the maintenance or operation of the PPRP or like plans;
  • (ii) to correct any manifest error or mistake; or
  • (iii) to take into consideration possible adverse tax implications in respect of the PPRP arising from, amongst other things, adverse rulings from the Commissioner of Taxation, changes to tax legislation (including an official announcement by the Commonwealth of Australia) and/or changes in the interpretation of tax legislation by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(x) A summary of the material terms of any loan that will be made to the person in relation to the acquisition

No loans will be provided to Gore in respect to the grant of FY22 PRs.

(xi) Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of AGM to which this Explanatory Memorandum is attached.

(xii) Annual report disclosure

Details of the proposed grant of FY22 PRs to Gore, including that approval for the grant was obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, will be included in Peet's FY22 Annual Report.

Any additional persons to whom ASX Listing Rule 10.14 applies and who become entitled to participate in a grant of PRs under the PPRP after the approval of Resolution 4 and who are not named in the Notice of AGM will not participate until approval is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

Directors' recommendation in respect of Resolution 4

Gore has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 4 and, accordingly, abstains from making a recommendation in respect of the Resolution.

The Board (with Gore abstaining) recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

These recommendations are made on the basis that several benefits would be expected to flow to the Company by issuing PRs to Gore under the PPRP, including the following:

  • (i) equity based incentive schemes are a common and effective means of motivating and improving the performance of senior executives;
  • (ii) it will ensure that the interests of Gore continue to be aligned with the interests of shareholders; and
  • (iii) the PPRP is designed to provide an incentive for future performance with restrictions on securities vesting under the PPRP Rules encouraging Gore to remain with the Company.

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

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

DETAILS ON HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE AGM

Required majority and voting entitlement

Resolutions 1 to 4 (inclusive) are ordinary resolutions and each will be passed if at least 50% of votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution are cast in favour of the resolution.

Questions and comments from shareholders

Peet requests that shareholders who may have questions to put to the AGM:

• to submit written questions in advance of the meeting by going to www.investorvote.com.au. Questions must be received by Monday, 8 November 2021;

  • if submitting their questions at the meeting, submit their questions as early as possible, so that they may be received and queued in preparation for the relevant agenda item;
  • be courteous and respectful when submitting their questions; and
  • state their questions clearly and concisely, which agenda item their question relates to and confine their questions to the matters before the meeting.

We encourage shareholders to submit written questions in advance of the meeting. If you wish to ask questions or to make comments during the meeting, you may do so by using the online AGM platform which will allow you to submit written questions or ask questions verbally and to make written or verbal comments.

The Chairman of the meeting will endeavour to address as many of the more frequently raised relevant questions as possible during the course of the meeting. However, there may not be sufficient time available at the meeting to address all of the questions raised. Please note that individual responses will not be sent to shareholders.

Technical difficulties

Technical difficulties may arise during the course of the virtual meeting. The Chairman has discretion as to whether and how the meeting should proceed in the event that a technical difficulty arises. In exercising this discretion, the Chairman will have regard to the number of shareholders impacted and the extent to which participation in the business of the meeting is affected. Where the Chairman considers it appropriate, the Chairman may continue to hold the meeting and transact business, including conducting a poll and voting in accordance with valid proxy instructions.

For this reason, shareholders are encouraged to appoint a proxy and submit a directed proxy vote, even if they plan to attend the virtual meeting.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXY

Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain as they choose (to the extent permitted by law). If you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.

Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of securities you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. The sum of the votes cast must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.

Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of securities for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. When appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each in Step 1 overleaf.

A proxy need not be a securityholder of the Company.
