Resolution 3 – Remuneration Report
In accordance with Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act 2001, the Shareholders are to vote on the Remuneration report.
This report, as set out on pages 31-34 of the 2010 Technology One Limited Annual Report:
-
sets out the Board’s policies in relation to the nature and level of
-
remuneration paid to Directors and Executives;
-
discusses the link between the Board’s policies and performance;
-
provides details of performance conditions for Executives; and
-
explains the various components of Executive remuneration.
The Directors believe the remuneration policies adopted by the Company comply with good practice, due to:
-
a significant portion of Executives’ total target salaries (ranging from 8-70%)
-
being ‘at risk’ by way of incentive component;
-
incentive payments are tied to the Company’s Net Profit Before Tax;
-
remuneration compares favourably with similar companies.
The Remuneration report (included in the Company’s Annual Report) is also available on the Company’s website (www.TechnologyOneCorp.com) under the Investor Relations section.
