will vest subject to the Company's compound annual rate of growth
in fully diluted earnings* for the three financial years ending 30
June 2022, subject to performance criteria as follows:

- compound annual earnings growth between 5%-10% - partial
vesting between 0% and 100% on a sliding scale; and
- compound annual earnings growth of 5% and below - nil.
Dependent on the performance criteria above being achieved, the
