A retiring Director is eligible for re-election. Mr Chris Mackay and The Hon. Warwick Smith AO, will each retire and stand for re-election.

Item 4 Remuneration Report
Directors' recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that members VOTE IN FAVOUR of adopting the Remuneration Report.
The Corporations Act requires listed companies to put the Remuneration Report for each financial year to a resolution of members at their Annual General Meeting. The Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2023 can be found on pages 77 to 99 of the Company's 2023 Annual Report and covers director and executive remuneration.
Under the Corporations Act, the vote on the Remuneration Report is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company and does not affect the employment arrangements in place for employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Board will consider the outcome of the vote and comments made by members on the Remuneration Report at the meeting when reviewing the Company's remuneration policies.
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the meeting.
In summary, the Remuneration Report:
- explains the Board's approach to executive remuneration and the link to company performance and shareholder outcomes;
- explains the Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of Key Management Personnel of the Company (including Directors);
- explains the relationship between the Board's remuneration policy, the Company's performance and incentives for Key Management Personnel;
- details the remuneration framework which explains the reward elements and any performance conditions applicable to the remuneration of the Key Management Personnel of the Company; and
- sets out remuneration details for the Key Management Personnel of the Company.
Voting exclusion statement
The Company will disregard any votes cast on Item 4:
- by or on behalf of a member of the Company's Key Management Personnel named in the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2023, or their Closely Related Parties regardless of the capacity in which the vote is cast; or
- as a proxy by a person who is a member of the Key Management Personnel of the Company at the date of the meeting or any of their Closely Related Parties,
unless the vote is cast as proxy for a person entitled to vote on Item 4:
- in accordance with a direction on the proxy form; or
- by the Chairman of the meeting pursuant to an express authorisation to vote as the proxy as he sees fit, even though Item 4 is connected with the remuneration of the Key Management Personnel.
The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this Item of Business.
Item 5
Grant of deferred share rights under the FY23 Short-Term Incentive ("STI") Plan for the Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer ("MD & CEO")
Directors' recommendation
The Board, other than Mr Ryan Stokes AO, recommends that members VOTE IN FAVOUR of Item 5.
The Company operates the Seven Group Holdings Limited STI plan to provide short-term incentives to senior executives, based on performance relative to corporate and individual goals over the Company's financial year. Under the key terms of the STI plan, 50 per cent of the STI award for the MD & CEO, Mr Ryan Stokes AO, is deferred into deferred share rights.
Further details regarding the STI plan and the FY23 STI award are set out in the Remuneration Report on pages 77 to 99 of the Company's 2023 Annual Report.
Why is shareholder approval being sought?
Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, shareholder approval is required in order for a director to be issued securities under an employee incentive scheme. As the terms of the STI grant to Mr Ryan Stokes AO require that the securities to satisfy the STI award be purchased on market, shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of the ASX Listing Rules. However, in the interests of transparency and good governance, the Board has determined to seek shareholder approval for the grant of securities to Mr Ryan Stokes AO.
Summary of the key terms of the Grant of Deferred Share Rights
A brief overview of the key terms of the proposed grant under the STI plan is set out below.
| Details of the | The MD & CEO, Mr Ryan Stokes AO, participated in the STI plan in respect of FY23 ("FY23 STI"). | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Proposed STI grant |
All awards are subject to satisfying the Group's underlying EBIT gateway and achievement of a balanced scorecard of measurable and quantifiable individual targets. In cases of outperformance, the Board may grant an above target award amount. Under the STI plan, 50 per cent of the FY23 STI that has been earned is delivered as a cash bonus to the MD & CEO, and the remaining 50 per cent is delivered in deferred share rights as the deferred equity component of his STI. |
|||
| Accordingly, Mr Ryan Stokes AO is entitled to receive \$1,022,834 of deferred share rights (being the "Grant Value" of the deferred share rights component of his FY23 STI). The number of deferred share rights to be allocated to Mr Ryan Stokes will be a maximum of 42,930 based on an allocation value of \$23.826. |
||||
| The number of deferred share rights issued for Executives has been determined by dividing the Grant Value by the Company's five day VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) on 30 June 2023, adjusted to reflect that share rights do not entitle the holder to dividends on the underlying shares until the share rights vest and shares are acquired. A deferred share right is a right to acquire one ordinary share in the Company. |
||||
| Grant Date | The Company intends that the deferred share rights will be allocated to Mr Ryan Stokes AO on or about 1 December 2023, but in any event, within 12 months after the date of the meeting. |
|||
| Vesting of | Subject to the terms of the STI plan, the deferred share rights will vest on 1 July 2024. | |||
| Shares | Mr Ryan Stokes AO will not be entitled to vote nor be paid dividends in respect of those unvested deferred share rights. | |||
| Cessation of Employment |
If Mr Ryan Stokes AO ceases employment with the Company prior to 1 July 2024 due to termination for cause, gross misconduct or any other reason determined by the Board, all deferred share rights will immediately lapse unless the Board determines otherwise. |
|||
| If Mr Ryan Stokes AO ceases employment with the Company in any other circumstances (for example due to illness, retirement, genuine redundancy or other circumstance deemed appropriate by the Board) then, unless the Board determines otherwise, unvested deferred share rights will continue on foot, subject to the original vesting conditions, as though he had not ceased employment. |
||||
| Mr Ryan Stokes' Total Remuneration Package for FY23 |
ASX Listing Rule 10.15.4 requires this Notice of Meeting to include details (including the amount) of the current total remuneration of Mr Ryan Stokes AO which is: |
|||
| Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR) \$1,900,000 p.a. |
||||
| Short-term incentive opportunity \$1,900,000 – 100% of TFR (maximum of 133% of TFR) |
||||
| Long-term incentive grant \$1,900,000 – 100% of TFR |
||||
| Full details on the remuneration of Mr Ryan Stokes AO are contained within the Remuneration Report. | ||||
| Other | No loan arrangements are entered into with Mr Ryan Stokes AO in relation to deferred share rights granted under the STI plan. | |||
| Information | The only Director of the Company who is eligible to receive deferred share rights under the STI plan is Mr Ryan Stokes AO. | |||
| 96,824 deferred share rights have been granted to Mr Ryan Stokes AO under the STI plan. The average acquisition price was nil as the grants form part of Mr Ryan Stokes AO's remuneration. |
