Dear Mr Roberts

Tyro Payments Limited (‘TYR’): Appendix 3Y – Change of Director’s Interest Notice Query

Thankyou for your letter of 18 March 2024 and for your time during our earlier telephone conversation when Tyro self-reported the late lodgment of the relevant Appendix 3Y’s.

In response to your request for information, using the same numbering as your letter:

  1. The relevant Appendix 3Y’s were lodged late due to administrative error.

  2. The changes in interests in question were initiated by the Company and not by the relevant Directors. As such, in this instance it was for the Company to notify the relevant Directors of the change to their interests and the timing of those changes.

For completeness, Non-Executive Directors’ letters of appointment require Directors to notify Tyro of any change to their interests in Tyro Securities to enable the Company to give the ASX notice of those changes within 5 business days. Executive Directors are subject to employee obligations which require compliance with relevant regulatory obligations.

  1. Tyro has taken measures to ensure future compliance by reiterating roles and responsibilities with the relevant employees and incorporating a more detailed cross check when there are Company initiated changes to Directors’ interests.

Finally, I note that the Directors’ interests which are the subject of the relevant Appendix 3Y’s are interests which had previously been disclosed to the market.

Please let me know if you require any further information.

Dear Ms Amigh

Tyro Payments Limited (‘TYR’): Appendix 3Y – Change of Director’s Interest Notice Query

ASX refers to the following:

  1. TYR’s Appendix 3Y’s lodged on the ASX Market Announcements Platform (‘MAP’) on 15 March 2024 for Mr David Fite and Mr Jonathan Davey (‘The Notices’).

  2. Listing Rule 3.19A which requires an entity to tell ASX the following:

3.19A.1 ‘The notifiable interests of a director of the entity (or in the case of a trust, a director of the responsible entity of the trust) at the following times.

  • On the date that the entity is admitted to the official list.

  • On the date that a director is appointed.

The entity must complete Appendix 3X and give it to ASX no more than 5 business days after the entity’s admission or a director’s appointment.

3.19A.2 A change to a notifiable interest of a director of the entity (or in the case of a trust, a director of the responsible entity of the trust) including whether the change occurred during a closed period where prior written clearance was required and, if so, whether prior written clearance was provided. The entity must complete Appendix 3Y and give it to ASX no more than 5 business days after the change occurs.

3.19A.3 The notifiable interests of a director of the entity (or in the case of a trust, a director of the responsible entity of the trust) at the date that the director ceases to be a director. The entity must complete Appendix 3Z and give it to ASX no more than 5 business days after the director ceases to be a director.’

  1. Listing rule 3.19B which states that:

‘An entity must make such arrangements as are necessary with a director of the entity (or in the case of a trust, a director of the responsible entity of the trust) to ensure that the director discloses to the entity all the information required by the entity to give ASX completed Appendices 3X, 3Y and 3Z within the time period allowed by listing rule 3.19.A. The entity must enforce the arrangements with the director.’

The Notices indicate that: (a) Changes in Mr Fite’s notifiable interests occurred on 2 November 2023 and on 20 November 2023. It appears that the Notices should have been lodged with ASX by 9 November 2023 and 27 November 2023, respectively; and (b) Changes in Mr Davey’s notifiable interests occurred on 16 February 2024. It appears that the Notice should have been lodged with ASX by 23 February 2024. Consequently, TYR may have breached Listing Rules 3.19A and/or 3.19B.
