The Exercise Price (if any) and Issue Price (if any) in respect of an Option must be denominated and payable in Australian dollars, unless otherwise determined by the Board.

4.8 Offer personal

An Offer under the Plan is personal to the Eligible Employee to whom it is made and, accordingly, the invitation constituted by an Offer may only be accepted by, and Options or Rights may only be issued to, the Eligible Employee to whom the Offer is made.

5. Application for Options and Rights

5.1 Acceptance of Offer

5.2 Application for all or some of the Options or Rights the subject of an Offer

Unless otherwise determined by the Board and specified in the Offer Document for the Offer, an Eligible Employee may, in his or her discretion, accept the invitation constituted by the Offer, in whole or in part, in multiples of 100 Options or Rights or another multiple of Options or Rights as the Board may allow for the Eligible Employee.

Unless otherwise provided in the Offer Document for the Offer, the Company may accept an Eligible Employee’s Application in respect of an Offer of Plan Securities by issuing to the Eligible Employee the Plan Securities the subject of the Application. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the issue of Plan Securities to an Eligible Employee will be constituted by the registration of the Eligible Employee as the holder of the relevant number and type of Plan Securities in a register of holders of Plan Securities maintained by or on behalf of the Company (which may, without limitation, be in electronic form and maintained by the Company’s share registrar or other third party service provider). Nothing in any Offer Document or Application, or in these Rules, will be taken to confer on any Eligible Employee any right or title to, or interest in, any Plan Securities until the Plan Securities are issued to the Eligible Employee.

Within a reasonable period after the issue of Options or Rights to a Participant, the Company must give the Participant notice in writing of:

(d) the Date of Grant of those Options or Rights.

6.4 Consideration for Options and Rights

(b) does not have any rights to dividends, rights to vote or rights to participate in any new issue of capital of the Company as a result of holding an Option or Right.

Subject to the Corporations Act and the Constitution, Participants will not, as holders of Options or Rights, have any right to attend or vote at general meetings of holders of Shares.

7. Vesting of Options or Rights

7.1 Requirements for vesting

Subject to these Rules:

(a) if the Offer Document for Plan Securities held by a Participant specified any Vesting Conditions and each of the following occurs:

(i) the Board determines that the applicable Vesting Conditions have been satisfied in respect of all, or a specified percentage or number of, those Plan Securities; and

(ii) if any additional terms were specified in the Offer Document and required to be satisfied before vesting, the Board determines that those additional terms have been satisfied or, in the Board’s discretion, are not required to be satisfied,

then all, or any specified percentage or number determined by the Board, of those Plan Securities will become vested Plan Securities on and from the date of the Board’s determination (or any later date determined by the Board); and

(b) if the Offer Document for Plan Securities held by a Participant did not specify any Vesting Conditions, the Plan Securities will become vested Plan Securities on and from the vesting date specified in the Offer Document (or any earlier date determined by the Board).

(a) any Options held by a Participant become Vested Options; or

(b) any Rights held by a Participant become Vested Rights,

the Company must give the Participant a Vesting Notice.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 16

(a) reduce or waive the Vesting Conditions (if any) that apply to a Plan Security held by the Participant (in whole or in part);

(b) reduce the Performance Period (if any) that applies to any Plan Security held by the Participant;

(c) in the case of an Option, determine that a new First Exercise Date or Last Exercise Date (or both) will apply to the Option (whether earlier or later than the original date);

(d) in the case of a Right, determine that a new Share Allocation Date or Share Allocation Period will apply to the Right (whether earlier or late than the original date or period); or

(e) do any combination of the things referred to in paragraphs (a) to (d) above.

7.4 Notice of variation or waiver

If the Board exercises its discretion to alter any terms of a Plan Security under Rule 7.3 or in reliance on Rule 18.4, the Company:

(a) must within a reasonable period of the alteration give notice to each Participant affected by the alteration in respect of any Options or Rights held by the Participant; and

(b) if the Company issued a certificate for the Plan Security, may have to issue a replacement certificate.

8. Exercise of Options

8.1 Exercise during Exercise Period

Subject to Rules 3.2 and 8.2 and the Trading Policy, an Option held by a Participant may be exercised at any time during (and only during) the Exercise Period for that Option.

8.2 Exercise Conditions

An Option may not be exercised unless and until it has become a Vested Option.

8.3 Exercise of Options

Subject to these Rules, Vested Options held by a Participant may be exercised by the Participant giving to the Company:

(a) a Notice of Exercise duly completed by the Participant;

(b) if there is an Exercise Price for the Options:

(i) payment (in cleared funds) of the amount calculated by multiplying the number of Options being exercised by the Exercise Price; or

(ii) payment, or the Participant’s agreement to pay, the relevant amount under any ‘cashless exercise’ arrangement that is acceptable to, and approved by, the Board; and

(c) if a certificate was issued by the Company in respect of those Options, the relevant certificate.

8.4 Clearance of Exercise Price

Unless the Board determines otherwise, the Company is not obliged to Allocate Shares on exercise of Options until payment of the Exercise Price (if any) has been received by the Company in cleared funds from the Participant.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 17

8.5 Exercise or conversion of all or some Options or Rights

(a) A Participant may only exercise Options and convert Rights in multiples of 100 or another multiple that the Board determines, unless the Participant exercises all Options or converts Rights with the same Date of Grant able to be exercised by him or her at that time or under a cashless exercise arrangement.

(b) The exercise or conversion by a Participant of only some of the Options or Rights held by the Participant does not affect the Participant’s right to exercise or convert at a later date other Options or Rights held by the Participant (whether those other Options or Rights have the same First Exercise Date or otherwise).

8.6 Replacement Certificate

If a Participant submits a Notice of Exercise in respect of only part of the Options or Rights for which a certificate has been issued by the Company, the Company must issue a certificate stating the remaining number of Options or Rights held by the Participant.

9. Allocation of Shares to satisfy Vested Options or Rights

9.1 Requirement to allocate Shares

(a) Subject to these Rules (including Rule 9.5), where any Options held by a Participant become Vested Options and are validly exercised by the Participant in accordance with Rule 8, the Company must Allocate to the Participant the number of Shares that are the subject of the Vested Options that have been exercised, as determined in accordance with these Rules and the Offer Document for those Options.

(b) Subject to these Rules (including Rule 9.5), where any Rights held by a Participant become Vested Rights, the Company must (without the need for any action by the Participant) Allocate to the Participant the number of Shares that are the subject of those Vested Rights, as determined in accordance with these Rules and the Offer Document for those Rights. For the purposes of these Rules, the Allocation of Shares in respect of Vested Rights constitutes the conversion of Vested Rights.

9.2 Method of allocation of Shares

(a) Subject to Rule 9.2(b) and Applicable Law, any Shares to be allocated to a Participant under Rule 9.1 may, in the Board’s discretion, be allocated by the Company by any one or more of the following means:

(i) issuing Shares to the Participant;

(ii) procuring the transfer to the Participant of Shares purchased on-market (within the meaning given to that term by the Corporations Act);

(iii) procuring the transfer to the Participant of Shares acquired through an off-market transaction (including from any ‘employee share trust’ within the meaning of the Tax Act that may be established by the Company for the purposes of the Plan); or

(iv) procuring the holding of Shares by a person as bare nominee for and on behalf of the Participant.

(b) The Board may determine and the Offer Document for Options or Rights may specify that any Shares to be allocated to a Participant to satisfy those Options or Rights may:

(i) only be allocated by a specified method or methods under Rule 9.2(a); or

(ii) not be allocated by a specified method or methods under Rule 9.2(a),

and, where so determined and specified, those Shares may (where paragraph (i) of this Rule applies) only be allocated to the Participant by the specified method or methods or (where paragraph (ii) of this Rule applies) may not be allocated to the Participant by the specified method or methods.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 18

9.3 Timing of allocation of Shares

Subject to Applicable Law and the Trading Policy, any Shares to be Allocated to a Participant under Rule 9.1 must:

(a) in the case of Shares to be Allocated to satisfy Vested Options that have been exercised by the relevant Participant, be Allocated within a reasonable period after the Participant exercises the Vested Options in accordance with these Rules; and

(b) in the case of Shares to be Allocated to satisfy Vested Rights, be Allocated on (or before) any applicable Share Allocation Date or before the end of any applicable Share Allocation Period (in each case, subject to any variation determined by the Board under Rule 7.3).

9.4 Shares rank equally

Unless otherwise determined by the Board and specified in the Offer Document for the relevant Plan Securities, Shares Allocated to a Participant to satisfy Plan Securities will rank equally with all existing Shares on and from the date of Allocation, including in respect of all rights issues, bonus issues and dividends that have a record date for determining entitlements on or after the date of registration of those Shares in the name of, or on behalf of, the Participant.

9.5 Discretion to settle Vested Plan Securities in cash

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of these Rules, and unless the Offer Document for the relevant Plan Securities specifies that this Rule 9.5 does not apply, the Board may, in its discretion (and at any time), determine that, in lieu and satisfaction of a Participant’s right to be Allocated Shares in respect of:

(i) any or all Vested Options exercised by the Participant; or

(ii) any or all Vested Rights held by the Participant,

the Company will make, or cause to be made, a payment (in Australian dollars) to or for the benefit of the Participant of a cash equivalent amount in respect of the Vested Options or Vested Rights the subject of the Board’s determination, as calculated in accordance with Rule 9.6 or in any other manner determined by the Board and specified in the relevant Offer Document (and subject to Rule 9.7).

(b) Where the Board has made a determination under this Rule 9.5, the Company must make, or cause to be made, the relevant payment to or for the benefit of the Participant by the time that Shares would otherwise have been required to be Allocated to the Participant under Rule 9.3.

(c) Any payment made to or for the benefit of a Participant in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities in accordance with the relevant determination of the Board under this Rule 9.5 constitutes full and final satisfaction of the Participant’s right to otherwise be Allocated Shares in respect of those Cash-Settled Plan Securities.

9.6 Calculation of amount payable for any Cash-Settled Plan Securities

For the purposes of Rule 9.5(a), and subject to the Offer Document for the Cash-Settled Plan Securities, the cash equivalent amount in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities will be calculated by multiplying the number of Shares that would (but for payment in accordance with Rule 9.5) be Allocated to the Participant in respect of those Cash-Settled Plan Securities by:

(a) if Shares are quoted on ASX or another securities exchange at the time, the volume weighted average price of Shares traded on ASX (or on the securities exchange or exchanges determined by the Board) over the 5 trading days preceding, where the Cash-Settled Plan Securities are Options, the date of exercise of the Options or, where the Cash- Settled Plan Securities are Rights, the date on which the Rights became Vested Rights (Valuation Time); or

Long term incentive plan rules | page 19

(b) if Shares are not quoted on ASX at the time, an amount reasonably determined by the Board to be equivalent to the value of a Share at the Valuation Time,

and, where the Cash-Settled Plan Securities are Options, reducing the resulting amount by the aggregate Exercise Price (if any) for the number of Vested Options in respect of which the cash equivalent amount is to be paid. If the resulting number is a fractional number, it will be rounded down to the next lower whole cent.

9.7 Tax withholding and superannuation contributions

(a) The Company will deduct or withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any amount paid or payable to a Participant in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities any Tax and other amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld from the payment.

(b) Any amount payable to or for the benefit of a Participant in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities in accordance with the relevant determination of the Board under Rule 9.5 will be payable such that the total of:

(i) the amount payable to the Participant (before any applicable deduction or withholding for Tax or other amounts under 9.7(a) above); plus

(ii) the amount of any contribution that any Group Company makes, will make or is required or has agreed to make, to an Australian superannuation fund for the benefit of the Participant that is or will be attributable or referable to any amount paid or payable to the Participant in accordance with the Board’s determination under Rule 9.5,

is equal to the cash equivalent amount in respect of those Cash-Settled Plan Securities determined in accordance with Rule 9.5 (and, if applicable, Rule 9.6).

(c) For the purposes of Rule 9.7(b) (and without limitation), a Group Company will be taken to be required to make a contribution if it is required to make the contribution in order to ensure that it will have no liability or potential liability to pay any superannuation guarantee charge (as defined in the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (Cth)) in respect of the amount paid or payable to the relevant Participant in respect of the relevant Cash-Settled Plan Securities.

(d) To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will the amount payable to a Participant under Rule 9.5 be included in any definition of pensionable or other earnings or salary (however defined) for the purpose of calculating any contributions payable to any Australian superannuation fund for the benefit of the Participant.

10. Lapse of Options and Rights

10.1 Lapse of Plan Securities where Vesting Conditions not satisfied

(a) If the Board determines that the Vesting Conditions (if any) applicable to all or a specified number or percentage of the Plan Securities held by a Participant have not been satisfied and should therefore lapse, all or the relevant percentage or number (as the context requires) of those Plan Securities will lapse with effect from the date on which the Board makes this determination (or, if the Board specifies a later lapse date when making this determination, on that later date).

(b) If the Board determines that the Vesting Conditions (if any) applicable to all or a specified number or percentage of the Plan Securities held by a Participant are not capable of being satisfied in accordance with their terms and should therefore lapse, all or the relevant number or percentage (as the context requires) of those Plan Securities will lapse with effect from the date on which the Board makes this determination (or, if the Board specifies a later lapse date when making this determination, on that later date).

Long term incentive plan rules | page 20

10.2 Lapse of Plan Securities on cessation of employment in certain circumstances

(a) Subject to the terms specified in the Offer Document for the relevant Plan Securities and unless otherwise determined by the Board (at any time and whether before of after cessation of employment), all Unvested Plan Securities held by a Participant will lapse:

(i) if the Participant ceases to be employed within the Group due to his or her Termination for Cause, with effect from the Cessation Date;

(ii) if the Participant ceases to be employed within the Group due to his or her Resignation, with effect from the Cessation Date; or

(iii) if the Participant ceases, or will cease, to be employed within the Group in any circumstances not covered by paragraphs (i) or (ii) above and the Board determines that, in those particular circumstances, all of the Participant’s Unvested Plan Securities should lapse (for example, because the circumstances involve the Participant’s poor or inadequate performance), with effect from the Cessation Date or any earlier or later lapse date determined by the Board.

(b) Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if:

(i) a Participant ceases to be employed within the Group for any reason or in any circumstances;

(ii) the Participant holds Unvested Plan Securities that have not lapsed under Rule 10.2(a)(i) or (ii) and the Board has not determined that all of those Unvested Plan Securities should lapse under Rule 10.2(a)(iii); and

(iii) the Offer Document for those Unvested Plan Securities specified that this Rule 10.2(b) applies or the Board otherwise determines that this Rule 10.2(b) applies,

then a proportion of the Participant’s Unvested Plan Securities will lapse with effect from the Cessation Date, being the proportion determined in accordance with Rule 10.2(c) (and rounded to the next higher whole number).

(c) Where Rule 10.2(b) applies, unless otherwise determined by the Board, the proportion of Unvested Plan Securities held by a Participant that will lapse under that Rule will be:

(i) subject to paragraph (ii), equal to the proportion that the number of days in the period starting on the day after the Participant’s Cessation Date and ending on the last day of the Performance Period applicable to those Plan Securities (or, if no Performance Period applies to those Plan Securities, ending on the date specified in Rule 7.1(b)) bears to the total number of days in the Performance Period (or, if no Performance Period applies to those Plan Securities, to the total number of days between the Date of Grant and the date specified in Rule 7.1(b)); or

(ii) if the Offer Document for those Plan Securities specified that the proportion was to be determined on a different basis to that set out in Rule 10.2(c)(i), the proportion determined in the manner specified in the relevant Offer Document.

(d) Any Plan Securities held by a Participant that do not lapse by operation of this Rule 10.2 or determination of the Board as a result of the Participant ceasing to be employed within the Group will continue to be held by the Participant subject to these Rules and the terms and conditions set out in the Offer for those Plan Securities.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 21

(e) For the purposes of these Rules (and any Offer Document), a Participant ceases to be employed within the Group if and when the Participant is no longer employed by, and no longer holds any other office with, any body corporate within the Group.

10.3 Lapse of Plan Securities to prevent inappropriate benefits

Subject to the terms specified in the Offer Document for the relevant Plan Securities and unless otherwise determined by the Board (at any time), some or all of any Unvested Plan Securities that have not otherwise lapsed under this Rule 10, or Vested Plan Securities (or both), held by a Participant will lapse:

(a) if, and with effect from the date on which, the Board determines that the relevant Plan Securities should lapse because, in the Board’s opinion, the Participant:

(i) has been, or could be, dismissed or removed from his or her employment in the Group for a reason that entitles a Group Company to dismiss the Participant without notice;

(ii) has committed an act of fraud, misappropriation or serious misconduct in relation to the affairs of the Group or any Group Company (whether or not charged with an offence);

(iii) has done an act which brings the Group or any Group Company into disrepute or causes material damage to any Group Company;

(iv) has been convicted on indictment of an offence against the Corporations Act in connection with the affairs of the Company or any Group Company;

(v) has had a judgement entered against him or her in civil proceedings in respect of the contravention by the Participant of his or her duties at law, in equity or under statute in his or her capacity as an executive or Director of the Company or any other Group Company;

(vi) has materially breached his or her obligations to any Group Company;

(vii) has performed below expectations or requirements (whether or not any performance-based Vesting Conditions have been or are likely to be met);

(viii) has materially breached any policy of the Company (including, without limitation, the Trading Policy or the Company’s policy (if any) on the hedging of long term incentives) or of any Group Company; or

(ix) has dealt with the Options or Rights in breach of the Rules;

(b) in the case of Unvested Plan Securities, on the happening of any other circumstance determined by the Board and specified in the Offer Document for those Plan Securities as a circumstance that will cause an Unvested Plan Security to lapse;

(c) in the case of Vested Plan Securities, on the happening of any other circumstance determined by the Board and specified in the Offer Document for those Plan Securities as a circumstance that will cause an Vested Plan Security to lapse; or

(d) if, in the opinion of the Board, the Plan Securities are liable to clawback under any Clawback Policy.

10.4 Lapse of Plan Securities where a Corporate Control Event occurs

If the Board makes a determination under Rule 13.1(c) that any Plan Securities held by a Participant will lapse, those Plan Securities will lapse on the date determined by the Board under that Rule 13.1(c).

Long term incentive plan rules | page 22

10.5 Lapse of Options on Last Exercise Date

If a Participant fails to exercise any Vested Options by the Last Exercise Date, those Options will lapse on the Last Exercise Date.

10.6 Timing of lapse

A Plan Security held by a Participant will lapse upon the earliest to occur of:

(a) the Plan Security lapsing under any of Rules 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5; or

(b) the date that is seven years after the Date of Grant for the Plan Security or any other date nominated as the expiry date in the Offer Document.

10.7 Entitlements and rights cease

On the lapse of a Plan Security under this Rule 10, all rights of a Participant in respect of the Plan Security under the Plan cease and no compensation will be payable to the Participant for the lapse of the Plan Security.

11. Dealings with Options and Rights

11.1 Options and Rights personal

Except where Options or Rights have been transferred under Rule 11.3, Options and Rights held by a Participant are personal to the Participant and, in the case of Options, may not be exercised by another person.

11.2 No unauthorised disposal

Except as permitted under Rule 11.3, a Participant must not dispose of or grant a Security Interest over, or otherwise engage in any Dealing with, an Option or Right or any interest in an Option or Right, and any Security Interest or disposal or dealing granted or undertaken contrary to this Rule is not recognised in any manner by the Company.

11.3 Permitted transfer of Options and Rights

The Board may determine that Options or Rights may be transferred, by an instrument of transfer, where the transfer would be:

(a) a transfer constituting the necessary transfer documents following an acceptance of an offer made under an off-market bid made under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act relating to Options or Rights;

(b) a transfer to a bidder on the sale of the Options or Rights under Division 3 of Part 6A.1 of the Corporations Act;

(c) a transfer to a 100% holder on the sale of the Options or Rights under Division 2 of Part 6A.2 of the Corporations Act;

(d) a transfer under Part 6A.3 of the Corporations Act to a person entitled to acquire the Options or Rights under section 661A or 664A of the Corporations Act; or

Long term incentive plan rules | page 23

12. Participation rights, bonus issues, rights issues, reorganisations of capital and winding up

12.1 Application of this Rule

This Rule 12 only applies to Participants who hold Options or Rights that have not lapsed in accordance with the Rules.

12.2 New issues

A Participant is not entitled to participate in any new issue to existing holders of securities in the Company by virtue of holding an Option or Right unless:

(a) in the case of an Option, the Option has become a Vested Option and been validly exercised by the Participant; or

(b) in the case of a Right, the Right has become a Vested Right and been converted,

and a Share has been issued or transferred to, and registered in the name of, the Participant (in satisfaction of the Option or Right) before the record date for the determination of entitlements to the new issue of securities (in which case, the Participant will participate in the new issue as a result of being the holder of the Share).

The Company will give Participants, in accordance with the Listing Rules, notice of any new issue of securities before the record date for determining entitlements to the new issue.

12.3 Bonus issues

If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing holders of Shares (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) and no Share has been Allocated in respect of an Option or Right held by a Participant before the record date for determining entitlements to the bonus issue, then:

(a) the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled on exercise of the Option or conversion of the Right (as applicable) will be increased by the number of Shares that the Participant would have received if the Participant had exercised the Option or the Right had converted (as applicable) and acquired the underlying Share prior to such record date; and

(b) in the case of an Option, no change will be made to the Exercise Price (if any).

12.4 Pro-rata issues

If the Company makes a pro-rata issue of Shares to existing holders of Shares (other than a bonus issue, or an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) and no Share has been Allocated in respect of an Option or Right before the record date for determining entitlements to the issue, then:

(a) in the case of an Option, the Exercise Price (if any) of the Option will be reduced in accordance with the relevant formula set out in the Listing Rules applying to options at the time of the pro-rata issue, and there will be no change to the number of Shares to which the relevant Participant is entitled on exercise of the Option; and

(b) in the case of a Right, but subject to Rule 18.3, the Board may determine, in its discretion, whether any adjustment will be made to the terms of the Right (including, without limitation, whether or not there will be any resulting increase in the number of Shares to which the relevant Participant will be entitled on conversion of the Right and the manner in which any such increase will be calculated).

Note: At the time of adoption of these Rules, the relevant formula for reduction of the Exercise Price (if any) of Options in the event of a pro-rata issue is set out in rule 6.22.2 of the Listing Rules.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 24

12.5 Reorganisation of capital

If, prior to the Allocation of Shares to a Participant in respect of Options or Rights held by the Participant, there is a reorganisation of capital of the Company (including a consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital), then the rights of each Participant (including, where applicable, the number of Options or Rights (or both), and the Exercise Price (if any) of any Options, held by the Participant) will be amended to the extent necessary to comply with the ASX Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation (whether or not the ASX Listing Rules apply to the Company at the time and, in the case of Rights, on the same basis as required by the ASX Listing Rules applying to Options).

12.6 Winding up

If, while a Participant holds Options or Rights, a resolution for a members’ voluntary winding up of the Company is proposed (other than for the purpose of a reconstruction or amalgamation) the Board may, in its discretion:

(a) in the case of Options, give written notice to the Participant of the proposed resolution, in which case, subject to the applicable Vesting Conditions (if any) being satisfied (or waived by the Board), the Participant may, during the period referred to in the notice, exercise the Option provided that no Option will be capable of exercise later than the Last Exercise Date; and

(b) in the case of Rights, determine that the Rights are Vested Rights and that on conversion, Shares will be Allocated in respect of the Rights on a date specified by the Board and notified to the Participant.

12.7 Rounding

For the purposes of this Rule 12, if Options are exercised simultaneously or Rights are converted simultaneously, then the number of Shares or fractions of Shares that the Participant is entitled to be Allocated in respect of those Options or Rights may be aggregated and, in the case of Options with an Exercise Price, the Exercise Price payable by the Participant in respect of those Options may be aggregated. Fractions in the aggregate number or amount will be dealt with as follows (unless otherwise required by the Listing Rules):

(a) fractions in the aggregate number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to be Allocated on such exercise or conversion will be rounded down to the next lower whole number; and

(b) fractions in the aggregate Exercise Price of Options payable by the Participant on exercise of those Options will be rounded up to the next higher whole cent.

12.8 Calculations and adjustments

Any calculations or adjustments which are required to be made under this Rule 12 will be made by the Board and, in the absence of manifest error, are final and conclusive and binding on the Company and each Participant.

12.9 Notice of change

The Company must, within a reasonable period, give to each Participant notice of any change under Rule 12 to the Exercise Price (if any) of any Options held by a Participant or to the number of Shares that the Participant is entitled to be Allocated following exercise of an Option or conversion of a Right.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 25

13. Corporate Control Events

13.1 Treatment of Plan Securities on a Corporate Control Event

(a) all or a specified proportion of any Unvested Rights then held by a Participant will be taken to have become vested Plan Rights (and that any Vesting Conditions applicable to those Unvested Rights that have not been, or are not then capable of being, satisfied will be waived), on a date determined by the Board, and that the Share Allocation Date or Share Allocation Period for those Rights will be brought forward to an earlier date or period determined by the Board;

(b) all or a specified proportion of any Unvested Options then held by a Participant will be taken to have become vested Options (and that any Vesting Conditions applicable to those Unvested Rights that have not been, or are not then capable of being, satisfied will be waived), on a date determined by the Board, and that the First Exercise Date or Last Exercise Date (or both) for those Options will be brought forward to an earlier date or dates determined by the Board;

(c) if the Board has determined under paragraph (a) or (b) above that a specified proportion of any Unvested Rights or Unvested Options then held by a Participant will be taken to have become vested Rights or Options (as the context requires), the balance of those Unvested Rights or Options will lapse on a date determined by the Board (or otherwise remain on foot);

(d) the First Exercise Date or Last Exercise Date (or both) for any Vested Options then held by a Participant will be brought forward to an earlier date determined by the Board; or

(e) the Share Allocation Date or Share Allocation Period for any Vested Rights held by a Participant will be brought forward to an earlier date or period determined by the Board.

13.2 Board determinations under Rule 13.1

Without limiting Rule 13.1, the Board may make a determination under Rule 13.1:

(a) at any time (including before an Offer is made and Plan Securities are issued to an Eligible Employee, or at any other time before (or at any time after) a Corporate Control Event occurs);

(b) in respect of any one or more particular Eligible Employees or Participants, or class of Eligible Employees or Participants;

(c) in respect of any particular type or types of Plan Securities; and

(d) in respect of any particular Corporate Control Event, or any specified class or classes of Corporate Control Event (including any Corporate Control Events that satisfy any requirements or conditions determined by the Board).

13.3 Board determination as to pro rata vesting

In making any determination under Rule 13.1 as to a specified proportion of any Unvested Plan Securities that will be taken to become Vested Plan Securities, the Board may (without limitation) have regard to either or both of the following:

(a) the proportion of the Performance Period applicable to those Unvested Plan Securities (or, if no Performance Period applies to the Unvested Plan Securities, the proportion of the period from the Date of Grant of those Plan Securities to the date specified in Rule 7.1(b)) that has, or will have, elapsed when the relevant Corporate Control Event occurs (or by any later date determined by the Board); and

Long term incentive plan rules | page 26

(b) the extent to which any performance-based Vesting Conditions would be satisfied if they were measured and applied by reference to performance against those performance conditions up to, or at the time of, the relevant Corporate Control Event or Board determination, and expectations of future performance against those conditions.

13.4 Terms of Offer prevail

If the Board makes a determination under Rule 13.1 before an Offer of Plan Securities is made to an Eligible Employee, details of that determination must be included in the Offer Document for that Offer and the treatment of those Plan Securities where a Corporate Control Event occurs will be determined in accordance with that determination to the extent that it is applicable in relation to the particular Corporate Control Event, but that determination will not otherwise be taken to limit the Board’s powers under Rule 13.1.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 28

(c) resolve conclusively all questions of fact or interpretation arising in connection with the Plan;

(d) terminate or suspend the operation of the Plan at any time, provided that the termination or suspension does not adversely affect or prejudice the rights of Participants holding Options, Rights or Restricted Shares at that time or contravene any Applicable Law;

17.3 Exercise of powers or discretion

Any power or discretion which is conferred on the Board by these Rules may be exercised by the Board in the interests or for the benefit of the Company, and the Board is not, in exercising that power or discretion, under any fiduciary or other obligation to another person, including a Participant.

(a) Where these Rules provide for a determination, decision, approval or opinion of the Board, that determination, decision, approval or opinion may be made or given by the Board in its absolute discretion.

(b) Where these Rules refer to an opinion or state of mind (however described) of a group of persons (including the Board), the group of persons will be taken to have that opinion or state of mind if persons constituting a majority of the group each have that opinion or state of mind.

Long term incentive plan rules | page 29

17.7 Participants responsible for Tax in respect of Options, Rights and Shares

(a) No Group Company is responsible for any Tax which may become payable by a Participant in connection with the issue, acquisition or disposal of Options, Rights, or Shares Allocated to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of Options or conversion of Rights, or any other dealing by a Participant with Options, Rights or Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, this does not prevent a Group Company from complying with any obligation to deduct or withhold Tax and any other amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld from any payments made to a Participant in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities in accordance with a determination of the Board under Rule 9.5.

(b) If the Company or any other Group Company becomes liable to pay any ‘TFN withholding tax (ESS)’ pursuant to Section 14-155 of Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Cth), or any other Taxes in respect of a Participant’s Options, Rights or Shares Allocated to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of Options or conversion of Rights, the Company will, in addition to any rights afforded to it or any other Group Company by the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Cth) or any other legislation or by law and failing any arrangement satisfactory to the Company being entered into with the Participant to meet or reimburse the Company or any Group Company for any such Tax liability, be entitled to sell all or any of the Shares acquired by the Participant under this Plan for and on behalf of, and as attorney for, the Participant and to apply the proceeds firstly in and towards meeting or reimbursing the Company or any Group Company for such Tax liability and to pay any balance to the Participant. This Rule 17.7(b) does not apply to any obligations to deduct or withhold Tax and any other amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld from any payments made to a Participant in respect of any Cash-Settled Plan Securities in accordance with a determination of the Board under Rule 9.5.

18. Amendment to Rules

18.1 Board may amend Rules

Subject to the Listing Rules and Rule 18.3, the Board may, in its discretion, at any time:

(a) amend or add to any of these Rules (or the terms and conditions of any Plan Security issued under the Plan); or

(b) waive or modify the application of any of these Rules (or the terms and conditions of any Plan Security issued under the Plan) in relation to any Participant or class of Participants.

18.3 Consent of Participants required

Subject to Rule 18.4, if an amendment or addition proposed to be made under Rule 18.1 would in the opinion of the Board materially adversely affect the existing rights of Participants in respect of any Plan Securities then held by them, the Board must obtain the consent of Participants who between them hold not less than 75% of the total number of the particular Plan Securities in respect of which Participants’ rights would be adversely affected by the proposed amendment, before making the amendment or addition.

(c) having regard to any possible adverse taxation implications, or the conditions for maintaining or obtaining any concessional taxation treatment, for any Group Company or Participants in connection with the administration or operation of, or participation in, the Plan, including as a result of:

(i) any changes to the Tax Act or any other applicable taxation legislation (including an official announcement by the Commonwealth of Australia);

(ii) the issue of any public or private rulings, determinations, interpretative decisions, circulars, decision impact statements, or other statements by the Commissioner of Taxation or any other person or authority administering applicable taxation legislation; or

(iii) changes in the interpretation of any applicable taxation legislation by a court of competent jurisdiction.

18.5 Exercise of discretions under Rules

To avoid doubt, the exercise by the Board of a discretion or power conferred or specifically contemplated by any other provision of these Rules or the terms of an Offer will not constitute an amendment under Rule 18.1.
