As noted in WHS’ Capital Change Notice, dated

scheme, certain executives of WHS are entitled
to be transferred shares in WHS’ subsidiary,

Warehouse Group Investments Limited)
(TheMarket) on 17 June 2019 (Tranche 1), 20
March 2020 (Tranche 2) and 26 March 2021
(Tranche 3), subject to certain conditions, which
include continued employment. TheMarket
shares will be transferred to the executives by
The Warehouse Limited (TWL), being the only
other shareholder in TheMarket. Under the

incentive scheme, TWL has also previously
granted the executives put options exercisable
over:
• a proportion of their Tranche 2 TheMarket
shares equal to their tax obligations in
respect of Tranche 1 and Tranche 2, within
4 weeks of their transfer (subject to
extension by agreement or due to regulatory
requirements);
• up to 50% of their Tranche 3 TheMarket
shares, within 4 weeks of their transfer; and
• their entire TheMarket shareholding, at any
time within 3 years after 31 March 2021 or
within 3 months of certain ‘good leaver’
events, such as death or incapacity.
If the put option is exercised, TWL is required to
purchase those TheMarket shares at a price

consideration for procuring the delivery of
ordinary shares in WHS of equivalent value
(using the volume weighted average market
price of WHS shares on NZX for the 10
business days immediately preceding the
exercise of the put option and subject to certain
caps on the number of WHS shares to be
delivered to each participant).
