Part 2: Explanatory Statement
1 Introduction
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the Shine Annual General Meeting to be held at Level 11, Central Plaza 2, 66 Eagle Street Brisbane, Queensland on Thursday, 20 October 2016, commencing at 10am (Brisbane time).
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with the information known to the Company that the Board considers material to their decision on whether to approve the resolutions in the Notice. This document is important and should be read in conjunction with the Notice.
Capitalised terms are defined in section 4.
2 Ordinary business
Item 1 – Annual financial report, Directors' report and auditor's report
The first item of business of the Meeting is to receive and consider the financial report, together with the Directors' and auditor's reports for the financial year ended 30 June 2016.
No resolution is required for this item of business. However, as a Shareholder, you may submit a written question to the auditor prior to the Meeting provided that it relates to:
- the content of the auditor's report; or
- the conduct of the audit of the financial report.
All written questions must be received by the Company no later than the fifth business day before the Meeting (by Thursday, 13 October 2016).
All questions must be sent to the Company, not directly to the auditor.
The auditor will attend the Meeting and will answer written questions submitted before the Meeting.
The auditor will also be available to answer questions from Shareholders relevant to:
- (a) the conduct of the audit;
- (b) the preparation and content of the auditor's report;
- (c) the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and
- (d) the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
Item 2 – Remuneration Report
Shareholders are entitled to vote on the question of whether the Remuneration Report contained in the Annual Report is adopted.
The Remuneration Report explains the Company's remuneration policy and reports the remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel.
Shareholders should note that the resolution is 'advisory' only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.
However, the Corporations Act provides that if 25% or more of the votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings, shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those meetings on a resolution (a 'spill' resolution) that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the company's directors (other than the managing director) who were in office at the date of the approval of the later directors' report must stand for re-election.
The resolution to approve the remuneration report was passed on a show of hands at Shine's 2015 annual general meeting.
Following consideration of the Remuneration Report, the Chairman will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of item 2.
Item 3 – Election of Directors
The third item of business of the Meeting relates to the election of Directors.
The Constitution requires the Company to hold an election of Directors each year. The Director who has been longest in office since last being elected must retire. No Director who is not a managing director may hold office without re-election beyond the third annual general meeting following the meeting at which the Director was last elected or re-elected.
The election of each candidate must be considered and voted on as a separate resolution. Set out below are details of each resolution and of each candidate, together with the recommendation of the Board.
a. Re-election of Greg Moynihan BComm, Grad DIP SIA, CPA, FFin, MAICD (Age 59) – Non-executive Director
In accordance with the Constitution, Greg Moynihan will retire at the Meeting and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.
Greg joined the Board in 2013 as a non-executive Director.
Greg is currently a non-executive director of ASX listed company Corporate Travel Management Limited and several private companies in Australia and overseas.
He is a former chief executive officer of Metway Bank Limited and has held senior executive positions with Citibank Australia and Suncorp Metway over a range of disciplines including financial and capital management, investment management and corporate strategy. He is a former director of ASX listed Ausenco Limited.
Greg chairs the Audit & Risk Management Committee and serves on the Nomination Committee and the Remuneration Committee.
The Directors, with Mr Moynihan abstaining, recommend that Mr Moynihan be re-elected as a Director.
b. Re-election of Simon Morrison LLB (Age 47) – Executive Director
Simon Morrison retired as Managing Director on Shine on 24 August 2014 and continues as Executive Director.
In accordance with the Constitution, he will retire at the Meeting and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.

The Directors, with Mr Morrison abstaining, recommend that Mr Morrison be re-elected as a Director.
3 Special business
Item 4 – Approval of the LTIP
Stakeholders and industry participants expect that Shine's remuneration framework should provide competitive and appropriate remuneration so that Shine can attract and retain skilled employees and motivate them to improve Company performance.
The Board has established the LTIP as a means of providing incentives to key management personnel and senior executives. Under the LTIP, annual grants of Performance Rights may be made to executives to align remuneration with the creation of Shareholder value over the long term.
Performance rights are proposed to be granted to Courtney Petersen (Managing Director & CEO) in respect of FY16 and FY17, subject to Shareholder approval, as proposed in item 5 below. It is proposed to expand the plan to include Key Management Personnel and senior executives in the current and future financial years.
Reason for Shareholder approval of the LTIP
Under Listing Rule 7.1, subject to certain exceptions, a company must not issue more than 15% of the company's total issued capital without shareholder approval. An exception is provided in Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 9) where holders of ordinary securities have approved the issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme within the three years before the date of issue.
Accordingly, item 4 is proposed so that the Company can take advantage of this exception in order to exclude any Performance Rights or Shares issued on the vesting of Performance Rights under the LTIP from the 15% limit.
If the resolution is passed, the Company may rely on the exception for issues under the LTIP during the period of three years from the date of the Meeting.
Summary of the LTIP
Under the LTIP, Directors and employees of and consultants to the Group (Eligible Participants) may be offered Performance Rights.
The LTIP is administered by the Board. The Board determines which Eligible Participants will be offered Performance Rights and the terms of those offers, including any vesting conditions which must be satisfied or any disposal restrictions which may be imposed.
The vesting of each Performance Right results in an entitlement to one Share which may be issued, transferred or allocated by a trust established for the purposes of the LTIP, to the Eligible Participant. The Board has a discretion to instead pay a cash amount based on the market value of Shares on the vesting date of vested Performance Rights.
Shares resulting from the vesting of Performance Rights will rank equally with all issued Shares.
The maximum number of Performance Rights (and Shares) issued under the LTIP in a rolling five year period must not (subject to certain exemptions) be more than 5% of the Company's issued capital.
Eligible Participants may nominate a controlled body corporate or other entity approved by the Board to receive the grant of Performance Rights. Performance Rights cannot be transferred or secured without the consent of the Board
No payment is required for a grant of Performance Rights or the issue, transfer or allocation of Shares on the vesting of Performance Rights.
Performance Rights will not be quoted on ASX and confer no right to vote or to participate in dividends, Share issues or in a winding up of the Company. Performance Rights lapse on cessation of employment or consultancy, except in the case of redundancy, death or permanent disablement.
In the event of a reconstruction of the Company's capital or a pro rata issue of securities, the number of Shares over which a Performance Right exists will be adjusted in accordance with the Listing Rules. In the event of a change in control of the Company, Performance Rights will vest to the extent determined by the Board, having regard to the performance of the Company and all relevant circumstances.
There have been no issues of securities under the LTIP.
Shareholder approval will be required before any Performance Rights can be issued to any Director or related party of the Company under the LTIP.
Ms Courtney Petersen and each of the other Directors are entitled to participate in the LTIP (subject to Shareholder approval being obtained) and so have an interest in item 4. Accordingly, the Directors refrain from making any recommendation as to how Shareholders should vote on item 4.
Item 5 – Approval of issue of Performance Rights to Courtney Jane Petersen
Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 10.14 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act for the proposed grant of Performance Rights under the LTIP to Courtney Petersen, Shine's Managing Director & CEO, as part of her remuneration package.
Listing Rule 10.14 requires the approval of Shareholders for an issue of securities (including Performance Rights) to any related party of Shine (including a Director) under an employee incentive scheme. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.14, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1 in order for the issue of the Performance Rights to be excluded from the 15% limit under that rule (discussed in item 4 above).
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party (including a director) unless one of a number of exceptions applies or shareholder approval is obtained. For the purposes of Chapter 2E, Ms Petersen, a Director, is a related party of the Company.
Section 208 requires that for a public company to give a financial benefit to a related party of that company, the company must obtain the approval of members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act and give the benefit to the recipient within 15 months after the approval.
Number of Performance Rights
Subject to Shareholder approval being obtained, the Company proposes to issue Performance Rights to Ms Petersen under the LTIP which, provided relevant performance hurdles are satisfied, will entitle Ms Petersen to receive Shares in the Company for no consideration.
The number of Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Ms Petersen each financial year is that number which is equivalent in value to 50% of her total fixed remuneration (TFR), based on the VWAP of Shares for the 20 business days up to and including 30 June of the preceding year.
Subject to the approval of Item 5, the number of Performance Rights proposed to be granted for the financial year ending 30 June 2016 (FY16) is 109,890, equivalent in value to 50% of Ms Petersen's TFR and based on the 20 day VWAP of Shares up to and including 30 June 2015. Based on the Board's assessment of FY16 performance measures relating to financial and transformation based project initiatives and targets (as disclosed in the Annual Report), the maximum entitlement is 36,630 Shares.
The number of Performance Rights proposed to be granted for the current financial year ending 30 June 2017 is 312,500. If 100% of the Performance Rights vest, 312,500 Shares will be issued, transferred or allocated by a trust to Ms Petersen or her nominee.
Vesting hurdles
Performance Rights issued to Ms Petersen will vest subject to satisfaction of applicable performance and other conditions.
The financial performance measure, which made up 50% of the potential award for Ms Petersen, was not achieved in FY16. Two-thirds of the transformation measures were achieved as determined by the Company's Remuneration Committee, with the result that 66.66% of the transformation award, being 33.33% of the aggregate potential award, accrued (i.e. equivalent to 16.66% of TFR). The FY16 Performance Rights will vest subject to Ms Petersen remaining in full-time employment with Shine until at least 1 July 2018.
FY17 Performance Rights will vest if Ms Petersen:
- remains in full-time employment with Shine until at least 1 July 2019; and
- satisfies the FY17 performance measures relating to financial and transformation based project initiatives and targets, currently being determined by the Remuneration Committee. The Board expects to set the hurdles on the basis of
key financial and operational goals of the Company and individual performance objectives (for example, earnings per share growth or total shareholder return).
Alternative incentives
In the event that Ms Petersen exercises either of the tranches of Options described in item 6 below in respect of FY18 or FY19, the Performance Rights issued in relation to that financial year will lapse. Therefore, Ms Petersen may be entitled either to the vesting of Performance Rights or to exercise any exercisable Options in respect of FY18 and FY19, but not both. Further details about the Options proposed to be issued are set out in item 6 on page 13.

| Valuation offinancialbenefitinherent inLTIP Shares | The Company commissioned an independent valuation of thePerformance Rights for the purposes of disclosing to Shareholdersinformation required to decide whether it is in the Company's interest topass the resolution in item 5. The Performance Rights were valuedusing a Binomial Lattice model which defines the conditions under whichemployees are expected to exercise their options after vesting in termsof the share price reaching a specified multiple of the exercise price.This valuation methodology resulted in the FY16 Performance Rightsbeing valued at $1.223 each and the FY17 Performance Rights beingvalued at $1.203 each. The total value of the Performance Rights is setout in the table below (on the assumption that all of the PerformanceRights for FY17 vest): | |||

| Fair value of PerformanceRights expected to vest | $44,788 | $376,031 |
The Directors, with Courtney Petersen abstaining, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of item 5. The Directors believe the issue of Performance Rights is reasonable having regard to the circumstances of the Company, the role and responsibility of Ms Petersen and the nature of the Company's operations. In particular, the issue of Performance Rights aligns Ms Petersen's remuneration with the creation of Shareholder value over the long term.
Item 6 – Approval of issue of Options to Courtney Jane Petersen
The Listing Rules require the approval of Shareholders to be obtained for an issue of securities (including Options) to any related party of Shine (including a Director). If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, it is not required under Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Options to be excluded from the 15% capacity (discussed in item 4 above).
The Board has agreed, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained, to grant 800,000 Options to Courtney Petersen, Shine's Managing Director & CEO (to subscribe for 800,000 Shares) as an alternative to the grant of Performance Rights in FY18 or FY19.
In the event that Ms Petersen elects to exercise either of the tranches of Options in respect of FY18 or FY19, the Performance Rights (described in item 5 above) issued in relation to that financial year will not vest. Therefore, Ms Petersen may be entitled either to the vesting of Performance Rights or to exercise any exercisable Options in respect of FY18 and FY19, but not both.
As noted above, section 208 of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company to give a financial benefit to a related party of that company, the public company must obtain the approval of members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act and give the benefit to the related party within 15 months after the approval.
Option details

Item 7 – Renewal of proportional takeover bid approval
Background
A proportional takeover bid is one in which a bidder offers to buy a proportion only of each shareholder's shares in the target company. This can result in control being transferred to the bidder without shareholders having the chance to sell all their shares. It also means a bidder can obtain control of a company without paying appropriate consideration for gaining such control.
The Corporations Act allows companies to include in their constitution provisions which prohibit the registration of a transfer of shares resulting from an offer made under a proportional takeover bid, unless shareholders approve the bid.
Under the Corporations Act, the proportional takeover bid provisions lapse after three years unless renewed by special resolution of shareholders.
Rule 15 of the Constitution, which was included in the Constitution in 2013 in accordance with the relevant sections (648D to 648H) of the Corporations Act, has lapsed. Under section 648G of the Corporations Act*,* the Company may renew the proportional takeover bid provisions for a further three years.
It is proposed to renew rule 15 as set out in Annexure A.
Nature of the provision
The provision enables Shareholders to decide by majority vote at a general meeting whether they approve or reject a proportional takeover offer for the Company. The resolution must be considered at least 14 days before the offer closes.
On a vote, each Shareholder who holds shares in the class of shares which is the subject of the takeover offer is entitled to one vote for each share of the relevant class held. The party making the offer and its associates will be excluded from voting on the resolution. Unless the approval of at least 50% of the votes of Shareholders is obtained, the Company will be prevented from registering the transfer of any shares acquired under the offer. If the resolution is rejected, the offer will be deemed to be withdrawn. If no resolution to approve the bid has been voted on within the required time, a resolution approving the bid will be deemed to have been passed.
Advantages and disadvantages of the provision
As the shares in listed companies are often held by a large number of people, a person may be able to gain effective control of a company when holding less than 50% of the company's issued shares. This can be facilitated by a proportional takeover offer which allows the offeror to specify the percentage shareholding it wishes to achieve. As a result, shareholders may not have the opportunity to dispose of all of their shares to the offeror even if there is a risk that the takeover may cause a decrease in the market price of the shares.
Shareholders may feel pressured into accepting an offer even if they did not want control of the Company to pass to the offeror because they may not wish to take the risk, in the event the offer is successful and effective control of the Company passes to the offeror, of:
-
- being left as part of a minority interest in the Company;
-
- the value of the shares decreasing; or
-
- the shares becoming less attractive and accordingly difficult to sell.
Rule 15 enables the Directors to formally ascertain the views of Shareholders in the event of a proportional takeover offer.
Shareholders will have the opportunity to study the offer and then attend or be represented by proxy at a meeting of Shareholders called specifically to vote on the offer. This will permit a majority of Shareholders to prevent a proportional takeover if they believe control of the Company should not pass to the offeror and may avoid the problems set out in items numbered 2 and 3 above. If an offer is rejected by the resolution, it will encourage any future proportional takeover offers to be in terms attractive to the majority of Shareholders.
A potential disadvantage of the rule is that it may discourage proportional takeover offers by making them more difficult to proceed and accordingly may reduce an element of takeover speculation in the Share price on ASX.
A further possible disadvantage is that Shareholders who would otherwise accept the offer to sell a portion of their Shares will be denied that opportunity where a majority of Shareholders reject the offer.
Finally, the proposed procedure introduces an additional formal mechanism to the existing statutory takeover requirements.
Under the Corporations Act, a company may only renew its proportional takeover approval by special resolution of Shareholders, which must be supported by at least 75% of the votes cast on the resolution.
None of the Directors is aware of a proposal by a person to acquire or to increase the extent of a substantial interest in the Company.
The Directors consider that the Shareholders should have the benefit of rule 15 in the Constitution and therefore recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of item 7.
