Recommendation

The Board (other than Mr Whittle) recommends that shareholders vote

FOR Resolution 4.

Item 7: Company Equity Incentive Plan (Resolution 5)

Michael Hill International Limited Equity Incentive Plan

The Company has established a new incentive plan named the ‘Equity

Incentive Plan’ (‘Equity Incentive Plan’ or ‘Plan’). A summary of the terms

of the Equity Incentive Plan is set out in Annexure 1.

It is noted that the Company has previously operated an employee

incentive plan named the ‘Incentive Plan’ which was last approved by the

shareholders at the 2022 Annual General Meeting.

The Board has decided to establish the new Equity Incentive Plan to

(among other things) address significant changes to the Corporations Act

regarding ‘employee share schemes’.

The new employee share scheme regime under Division 1A of Part 7.12 of

the Corporations Act ('ESS Legislation') took effect to replace and expand

the previous relief provided by ASIC Class Order 14/1000. The ESS

Legislation was introduced to make it easier for companies to access

‘regulatory relief’ from the Corporations Act restrictions on hawking and

advertising and disclosure requirements, and the design and distribution

obligations, with a streamlined set of disclosure requirements applying to

employee share schemes.

Subject to the approval of this Resolution 5, the Company intends to

cease using the old Incentive Plan and commence using the new Equity

Incentive Plan as the framework terms and conditions under which the

Company will grant share rights as part of the Company’s long-term

incentive remuneration strategy. The Plan is designed to align the

interests of key employees who are eligible participants with

shareholders and to assist the Company in the attraction, motivation and

retention of key employees. In particular, the Plan provides participants

with an incentive for future performance, thereby encouraging those

participants to remain with the Company and contribute to the future

performance of the Michael Hill Group.

Given that the Board has approved the new Plan, and no longer intends

to make offers under the old Incentive Plan, the Company seeks

shareholder approval so that the issue of any equity securities under the

new Plan will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit for the

purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (subject to the maximum cap described

below).

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 requires a listed company to obtain shareholder

approval prior to the issue of shares or securities convertible into shares,

representing more than 15% of the issued capital of the company in any

rolling 12-month period.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)), shareholder approval under

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of securities under an

employee incentive scheme if within 3 years before the issue date,

holders of ordinary securities in the company approve the issue of

securities under the scheme as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to issue share rights

and shares (as equity securities) under the new Plan during the next 3-

year period without impacting on the Company’s ability to issue up to

15% of its total ordinary securities without shareholder approval in any

12-month period. If approval is obtained, it will be effective for 3 years

from the date the resolution is passed.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to issue

securities under the Plan to eligible participants without using the

Company’s 15% limit under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (effectively decreasing

the number of securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without

obtaining shareholder approval over the 12-month period following any

such issue). Alternatively, the Company may also elect to make offers

under the old Incentive Plan, as last approved by shareholders at an

annual general meeting of the Company held on 25 October 2022.

If and where required, the Company will seek further shareholder

approval in accordance with the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing

Rules prior to issuing any share rights to any other Directors or their

associates.

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)),

the following information is provided in relation to this Resolution 5:

a summary of the key terms of the Plan are set out in Annexure 1;

no share rights or other securities have yet been issued under the

Plan;

the maximum number of securities which may be issued as an

exclusion to calculating the Company’s 15% limit for the purposes of

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is 57,693,594. The maximum number is not

intended to be a prediction of the actual number of securities to be

issued by the Company under the Plan; and

a voting exclusion statement for Resolution 5 is included in the

Notice that accompanies those Explanatory Notes.



Recommendation

The Board (other than Mr Bracken) recommends that shareholders vote

FOR Resolution 5.

Item 8: Increase to Non-Executive Director Remuneration

Pool (Resolution 6)

Under rule 39.5 of the Company's Constitution and in accordance with

Listing Rule 10.17, the maximum aggregate amount payable as

remuneration to Non-Executive Directors in any financial year may not

exceed an amount determined by shareholders from time to time in

general meeting ('Fee Pool').

The current Fee Pool of $840,000 was approved in 2016 by the

Company's sole shareholder at the time.

Shareholder approval is being sought to increase the Fee Pool by

$360,000 from $840,000 to $1,200,000 per annum. In accordance with

ASX Listing Rule 10.17, the Fee Pool is inclusive of superannuation

contributions made by the Company for the benefit of Non-Executive

Directors and any fees which a Non-Executive Director agrees to sacrifice

on a pre-tax basis.

The Board is seeking shareholder approval to increase the Fee Pool for

the following reasons:

to enable the Company to maintain remuneration arrangements

that are market-competitive, so it can attract and retain high calibre

individuals as Non-Executive Directors;

to ensure the Fee Pool can accommodate payment of fees to any

additional Non-Executive Directors appointed to the Board

(including the recent appointment of Mr David Whittle), if and when

required; and

to provide for Non-Executive Directors' fees to grow in the future to

reflect market trends.

The fees payable to Non-Executive Directors are reviewed from time to

time by the People Development and Remuneration Committee.

Although an increase in the Fee Pool is being sought, it does not imply

that the full amount will be used. Also, it is emphasised that the Fee Pool

is a maximum annual limit and does not indicate that fees will necessarily

be increased accordingly to that limit. Full details of the remuneration

arrangements applicable to Non-Executive Directors will be set out in the

Company's annual Remuneration Report, which must be submitted for

adoption by resolution of shareholders at every Annual General Meeting.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.17, the following information is

provided about Resolution 6:

the amount of the increase: $360,000 per annum

the maximum aggregate amount of Director's fees that may be paid

to all of the Company's Non-Executive Directors: $1,200,000 per

annum

no securities have been issued to any Non-Executive Director under

Listing Rule 10.11 or 10.14 with the Company's shareholders'

approval within the last 3 years.

Recommendation

As the Non-Executive Directors have an interest in the outcome of

Resolution 6, the Board does not believe it is appropriate to make a

recommendation to shareholders as to how to vote in relation to this

Resolution.

Item 9: Grant of share rights to the Managing Director &

Chief Executive Officer (Resolution 7)

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, a listed company must not permit a

Director to acquire equity securities (including share rights) under an

employee incentive scheme without shareholder approval.

The purpose of Resolution 7 is to seek shareholder approval for Mr

Bracken, being a Director of the Company, to acquire equity securities

under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan. Under Resolution 7, approval

is sought to grant Mr Bracken 1,123,592 share rights under the

Company's Equity Incentive Plan.

If Resolution 7 is approved by shareholders, the Company will be able to

grant the share rights the subject of that resolution to Mr Bracken under

the Equity Incentive Plan, and the issue of the share rights will not count

towards the Company's placement capacity.

A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 7 is included in the Notice

that accompanies these Explanatory Notes.

Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.14

In accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.14, approval is

sought to grant 1,123,592 share rights to the Managing Director & Chief

Executive Officer, Mr Daniel Bracken, pursuant to the Equity Incentive

Plan for FY24.

Each share right entitles the holder to acquire one fully paid ordinary

share in the Company if the applicable time period, performance hurdles

and/or service conditions are met (as set out below). No issue or exercise

price is payable for share rights. Share rights do not carry any dividend or

voting rights prior to vesting and are non-transferable, except in limited

circumstances under the Plan rules.

Share rights have been chosen by the Board to reward and attract

executive talent because they create alignment with the interests of

shareholders. In addition, share rights are simple to understand, likely to

be highly valued by executives (and therefore retentive and incentivising)

and are designed to attract, retain and reward high performance.

If shareholder approval is given, the share rights will be granted to Mr

Bracken shortly after the Meeting and in any event within 12 months of

the Meeting. If shareholders do not approve the proposed grant of share

rights, the Board will consider alternative performance-based incentive

remuneration arrangements for Mr Bracken, with particular regard to the

Company’s executive remuneration policy and framework, and strategic

and operational imperatives.

The key terms of the proposed grant of share rights are set out below.



Number of share rights

proposed to be granted

If shareholder approval is obtained, Mr Bracken will be granted 1,123,592 share rights under the Company’s Plan for FY24. 50%

of share rights are allocated to an earnings per share (‘EPS’) performance hurdle (‘EPS Share Rights’) and 50% of share rights

are allocated to a total shareholder return (‘TSR’) performance hurdle (‘TSR Share Rights’).

The number of EPS Share Rights to be granted (subject to shareholder approval) has been determined by reference to the

maximum value of the proposed grant of EPS Share Rights, being $530,391.60 divided by $0.9441 (being the face value

attributed to an EPS Share Right).

The number of TSR Share Rights to be granted (subject to shareholder approval) has been determined by reference to the

maximum value of the proposed grant of TSR Share Rights, being $530,391.60 divided by $0.9441 (being the face value

attributed to an TSR Share Right).

Performance period and

vesting

The performance period is three years, commencing 2 July 2023 and ending the date that is the end of the Company’s 2026

financial year.

The number of share rights that vest will depend on how well the Company has performed during the performance period

against the relevant performance hurdles. For outstanding performance in relation to each hurdle, 100% of the relevant share

rights will vest. Only a percentage of share rights will vest for performance below that level. If the Company does not achieve a

certain minimum threshold, all of the applicable share rights will lapse and no share rights can vest. Further information

regarding the vesting schedule for each of the TSR and the EPS hurdle is set out below.

EPS performance hurdle

and vesting schedule

An EPS test requires the achievement of a minimum CAGR in the Company’s normalised EPS over the testing period. If the EPS

does not reach that minimum rate over the testing period, the EPS Share Rights lapse.

Why EPS?

The EPS hurdle was chosen to ensure alignment between incentivising executives and long-term shareholder value creation

and because it reflects the underlying profitability of the business.

Vesting schedule

The table below sets out the percentage of EPS Share Rights subject to the EPS hurdle that can vest depending on the

Company’s EPS performance:

EPS compound annual growth rate (‘CAGR’) % EPS Share Rights vesting

Less than 5% CAGR Nil

Between 5% CAGR and 10% CAGR 20% vesting for each 1% increase in CAGR performance

Equal to or above 10% CAGR 100%

When determining normalised EPS for LTI purposes, statutory earnings is adopted as the base and the Board will adjust for any

unusual items.

TSR performance

hurdles and vesting

schedule

An absolute TSR test requires the achievement of a minimum positive absolute TSR over the testing period. If the TSR does not

reach that minimum rate over the testing period, the TSR Share Rights lapse.

Why a TSR?

The TSR hurdle was chosen to ensure alignment between incentivising executives and long-term shareholder value creation.

Vesting schedule

The table below sets out the percentage of TSR Share Rights subject to the TSR hurdle that can vest depending on the

Company’s TSR performance:

TSR compound annual growth rate (‘CAGR’) % TSR Share Rights vesting

Less than 10% CAGR Nil

Between 10% CAGR and 20% CAGR 10% vesting for each 1% increase in CAGR performance

Equal to or above 20% CAGR 100%



Absolute TSR measures the return received by shareholders from holding shares in a company over a particular period. TSR is

calculated by taking into account the growth in a company’s share price over the period as well as the dividends received (and

assumed to be reinvested back into the company’s shares) during that period.

Allocation of shares

following vesting

Following testing of the performance hurdles and determination of the portion of share rights available to vest, share rights will

be automatically exercised into an equivalent number of fully paid ordinary shares in accordance with the vesting schedules

described above (subject to Mr Bracken’s continued employment with the Company at the relevant date).

Any share rights that do not remain available to vest following testing of the performance hurdles at the end of the

performance period will lapse.

The Company’s obligation to deliver shares upon vesting and automatic exercise may be satisfied by issuing new shares,

acquiring shares on-market or off-market or by transferring and/or allocating shares from an employee share trust.

Restriction periods The vesting period for Mr Bracken’s share rights is three years and there is no additional restriction period following vesting,

other than any specified in the Company’s Trading Policy.

Mr Bracken’s current remuneration package

Mr Bracken’s current maximum remuneration comprises:

$1,116,613 as Total Fixed Compensation (inclusive of

superannuation)

$1,027,284 as his maximum short term incentive opportunity,

comprising of an on-target component ($513,642) and an

outperformance component ($513,642)

$1,060,783.20 as his maximum long-term incentive opportunity.

Further details of Mr Bracken’s remuneration arrangements can be found

in the Company’s Remuneration Report.

Other information

No securities have yet been issued under the Equity Incentive Plan.

It is noted that share rights have previously been granted to Mr Bracken

under the Company’s old Incentive Plan which was last approved by the

shareholders at the 2022 Annual General Meeting.

Mr Bracken commenced with the Company as the Chief Executive Officer

in November 2018 and was appointed Managing Director & CEO in June

2021. As part of his previous Chief Executive Officer remuneration

package, he was granted 2,310,215 share rights under the Company’s

Plan for FY19, FY20 and FY21 as follows:

110,018 share rights for FY19

142,459 share rights for FY20, and

2,057,738 share rights for FY21.

Since being appointed as a Director of the Company, Mr Bracken has

been granted an additional 2,020,831 share rights under the Company's

Plan as part of his remuneration package as Managing Director & Chief

Executive Officer for FY22 and FY23 as follows:

1,114,132 share rights under the Company’s Plan in FY22; and

906,699 share rights under the Company’s Plan for FY23.

Details of any share rights and any subsequent issue of fully paid ordinary

shares under the Plan will be published in the Company’s annual report

relating to the period in which they were issued. A statement will also be

included in the Company's annual report that approval for the issue was

obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 for all share rights granted to Mr

Bracken since his appointment as a Director of the Company.

At the date of this Notice, Mr Bracken is the only Director eligible to

participate in the Plan. Any additional persons covered by ASX Listing Rule

10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under

the Plan after Resolution 7 is approved and who were not named in the

Notice will not participate until approval is obtained under that rule.

If Resolution 7 is approved by shareholders then, upon grant of the share

rights the subject of that resolution, the issue of the share rights to Mr

Bracken (and their conversion into fully paid ordinary shares in

accordance with the terms of the Plan) will not count towards the

Company's 15% issue capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If Resolution 7

is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of

shares to Mr Bracken and the Board will consider alternative

performance-based incentive remuneration arrangements, with

particular regard to the Company’s executive remuneration policy and

framework, and strategic and operational imperatives.

There are no loans relating to the acquisition of share rights or shares

under the Plan.

Recommendation

The Board considers that the proposed grant of share rights under the

Equity Incentive Plan for FY24 (which forms part of Mr Bracken’s total

remuneration package) is reasonable and appropriate having regard to

the Company’s circumstances, business performance, remuneration

objectives, and his duties and responsibilities.

The Board (other than Mr Bracken) recommends that shareholders vote

FOR Resolution 7.



ANNEXURE 1: SUMMARY OF THE PLAN RULES

The key terms of the Plan are set out below.

Eligible participants

The following persons may be invited to participate in the Plan:

an Executive Director of the Company or an ‘associated

entity’ (as defined in the Corporations Act) of the Company

(together ‘the Group’)

an employee of any Group company

an individual who provides services to any Group company,

or

a prospective participant to whom the above criteria may

apply.

Non-Executive Directors of the Company are not eligible to

participate in the Plan.

Invitation to participate

The Board may from time to time in its absolute discretion

determine that an eligible participant be invited to participate in

the Plan.

Unless otherwise expressly permitted in an invitation, a

participant may only submit an application in that participant’s

name and not on behalf of any other person.

The Board has the discretion to set the terms and conditions

(including but not limited to conditions in relation to vesting,

exercise, cash settlement, forfeiture, and disposal restrictions)

on which it will make invitations under and in accordance with

the Plan and may set different terms and conditions which apply

to different participants.

The Board also has the discretion to waive vesting, exercise,

forfeiture or disposal conditions in relation to a particular

participant or in relation to participants generally.

Type of securities

The Plan provides the Board with the ability to grant share rights,

subject to the terms of individual offers.

Share rights are an entitlement to receive Shares upon the

satisfaction (or waiver) of the applicable vesting and/or exercise

conditions and payment of any applicable exercise price (which

may, for the avoidance of doubt, be nil). If expressly permitted in

the relevant invitation, a share right may also be settled with a

cash equivalent payment (‘Cash Settled’) at the discretion of the

Board.

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, no consideration is

required to be paid by the participant in respect of the grant of a

share right under the Plan.

The Board has the discretion to determine the number or value

of share rights to be granted.


Key terms

Voting and dividends

A participant is not entitled, by virtue of holding a share right, to:

notice of, or to vote or attend at, a meeting of the

shareholders of the Company, or

receive any dividends declared by the Company.

Shares delivered to (or on behalf of) a participant upon vesting

and exercise of a share right will carry dividend and voting rights.

Quoting on an exchange

Unless otherwise determined by the Board in its absolute

discretion, a share right granted under the Plan will not be

quoted on the ASX or any other recognised exchange.

Dealings

A participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security

interest over, or otherwise deal with a share right that has been

granted to them, unless the Board in its absolute discretion so

approves or the relevant dealing is effected by force of law on

death or legal incapacity to the participant’s legal or personal

representative.

Vesting

The Board has the discretion to determine the vesting conditions

(if any) that must be met before a share right will vest.

A share right will vest once all vesting conditions (specified in the

invitation related to the share right) have been satisfied (or

waived) and a vesting notice in respect of that share right is

given by the Company or is deemed to be given to the

participant.

A vesting condition for a share right may, subject to the

Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules (where applicable) and

any other applicable laws and regulations, be waived by the

Board.

Exercise of share rights

A share right may only be exercised when all vesting conditions

and all exercise conditions applicable to that share right are

satisfied or have been waived by the Company and the Company

has provided (or is deemed to have provided) a confirmation

notice to the participant. If there are no exercise conditions, the

vesting notice will constitute the confirmation notice.

An exercise condition for a share right may, subject to the

Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules (where applicable) and

any other applicable laws and regulations, be waived by the

Board.

The manner in which a share right may be exercised (including

whether that share right will be automatically or manually



exercised) as well as whether or not that share right may be Cash

Settled will be specified by the Board in the relevant invitation.

Resulting shares

Upon exercise, the Company will (subject to the terms of the

invitation) issue, acquire on or off market and transfer, and/or

allocate shares from within an employee share trust or other

trust or custodian arrangement established by the Company, to

(or on behalf of) the participant the number of shares to which

that participant is entitled (‘Resulting Shares’).

If specifically permitted to do so in an invitation to a participant,

the Board may determine to Cash Settle exercised share rights

with a cash equivalent payment.

Resulting Shares issued will rank equally with all other shares on

issue in that class (except as regards to any rights attaching to

such other shares by reference to a record date prior to their

allocation or transfer). If the class of shares are listed on the ASX,

the Company will apply for quotation of the shares issued upon

exercise.

The Board may, at its discretion, impose disposal restrictions in

an invitation in respect of any Resulting Shares. The Board may

also implement any procedures it deems appropriate to ensure a

participant’s compliance with applicable disposal restrictions in

respect of Resulting Shares. This may include imposing a holding

lock on relevant Resulting Shares or procuring that a trustee hold

the relevant Resulting Shares for part or all of the applicable

disposal restriction period.

Any dealing in Resulting Shares is also subject to the Company’s

Securities Trading Policy.

Cessation of employment

If a participant ceases employment with the Company, the

treatment of their share rights (both vested and unvested) will

depend on the circumstances of cessation.

For example, where the participant ceases employment due to

resignation or termination for cause, they will be entitled to

retain their vested and unexercised share rights but will forfeit

all of their unvested share rights, unless the Board determines a

different treatment.

In other cases, such as a redundancy or bona fide retirement, the

participant will be entitled to retain their vested and unexercised

share rights, and their unvested share rights. Any unvested share

rights will be retained on a pro rata basis (based on the

proportion of the vesting period in relation to those Share Rights

that will have elapsed on the date the Participant became a

Good Leaver (as determined by the Board acting reasonably)). In

addition, any vesting conditions applicable to the participant’s

unvested share rights will automatically be waived, unless the

Board determines a different treatment.

Malus and Claw-back

In the event of fraud, dishonesty or a wilful breach of a

participant’s obligations to any member of the Group, the Board

may deal with, or take any actions it considers appropriate, in

respect of the participant’s share rights, Resulting Shares or

proceeds of any Cash Settlement (if applicable) as to ensure no

unfair benefit is obtained by the participant. Such actions may

include deeming shares rights or Resulting Shares be forfeited, or

requiring the participant to repay all or part of the new proceeds

of sale of any Resulting Shares.

Corporate activity

If a ‘change of control event’ occurs, some or all of the share

rights will be vested (such number to be determined by the

Board having regard to the proportion of the performance

period elapsed up to the date of the relevant change of control

event’). The Board will then have discretion in respect of the

remaining unvested share rights (including, without limitation,

whether to also vest or to forfeit those share rights).

The Board also has the discretion to lift (or not lift) any

applicable disposal restrictions on share rights or Resulting

Shares.

A change of control event includes (without limitation):

in connection with a scheme of arrangement which will,

upon becoming effective, result in a person (either alone or

together with associates) owning more than 50% of the

issued capital of the Company (but does not include a

scheme which does not involve a change in ultimate

beneficial ownership of the Company)

where a person becomes the legal or beneficial owner of,

or has a relevant interest in, more than 50% of the issued

capital of the Company

where a person becomes entitled to acquire, hold or has an

equitable interest in more than 50% of the issued capital of

the Company

where a takeover bid is made, the takeover becomes

unconditional and the bidder (together with its associates)

has a relevant interest in more than 50% of the issued

capital of the Company

a resolution is passed for the voluntary winding-up of the

Company

the shares cease, or will cease, to be quoted on any

securities exchange, or

any other event determined by the Board in good faith to

constitute a ‘Change of Control Event’ for the purposes of

the Plan.

Discretions

Under the Plan, the Board has both broad and specific

discretions available to it when administering the Plan and the

share rights granted under it and may exercise those discretions

in relation to a particular participant or in relation to participants

generally.

These discretions include (without limitation) the ability:

to waive in whole or in part any terms and conditions of

the Plan insofar as they apply to any share rights or



Resulting Shares (including any vesting conditions or any

restrictions on dealing) applicable to those share rights or

Resulting Shares

to waive, amend or replace any vesting condition or

exercise condition attaching to a share right if it considers

that the original condition is no longer appropriate or

applicable, provided that either (a) the relevant

participants’ interests are not materially prejudiced or

advantaged relative to the position reasonably anticipated

at the time of grant or (b) in the context of a material

transaction undertaken by the Group, that the waiver,

amendment or replacement is reasonable to the relevant

participant given the circumstances of the Company and

the circumstances of the participant

where the Company divests a business or subsidiary

designated by the Board as ‘material’, to make special rules

in good faith that apply to some or all of a participant’s

share rights (including to vary vesting conditions or exercise

conditions and/or deem that a participant remains

employed or engaged by the Group notwithstanding that

they may not be at the relevant time, and

prior to the delivery of Resulting Shares to a participant

upon exercise of share rights issued under the Plan, to

grant additional share rights or make any adjustments it

considers appropriate to the terms of the share rights in

order to minimise or eliminate any material advantage or

disadvantage to a participant resulting from a corporate

action or capital reconstruction in relation to the Company.

The Plan includes standard provisions to deal with bonus issues,

rights issues, capital reorganisations and other corporate actions.

Trust or custodian arrangement

The Company may establish, administer, operate and fund an

employee share trust, custodian or other trust arrangement

(‘Trust’) for the purposes of holding and/or delivering shares

under the Plan.

Participants that have shares held in a Trust on an allocated basis

are entitled to dividends paid on those shares and are also

entitled to instruct the trustee how to exercise voting attaching

to those shares.

Plan administration

The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Plan also has

customary and usual terms having regard to Australian law for

dealing with the variation and termination of the

Plan.Corporations Act Relief

It is intended that offers of share rights and issues of securities

under the Plan will be made under Part 7.12, Division 1A

(Employee share schemes) of the Corporations Act ('ESS

Legislation'), which currently governs employee incentive

schemes of listed companies.

The ESS Legislation provides holistic regulatory relief (including

relief from disclosure document requirements, licensing,

hawking and other incidental matters) provided that the

conditions specified in the ESS Legislation are satisfied.

The Board also has the discretion to set out in a participant’s

invitation such terms, conditions or information as the Board

considers necessary for the purpose of complying with the

requirements of the ESS Legislation.
