March 2017 DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN ORDINARY SHARES

1. INFORMATION SHEET AND RULES 2. DRP SUMMARY 1.1 Eligible shareholders of The Village Building Co. Limited (the Company) are invited to reinvest their dividends and acquire more shares in the Company through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan Ordinary Shares (DRP). At each dividend date, the dividend on Ordinary Shares which you have nominated as participating in the DRP will be automatically reinvested in additional Ordinary Shares (New Shares). 1.2 Dividends on Ordinary Shares may be reinvested to acquire additional Ordinary Shares or shares in another class of shares in the Company determined by the Board as being a class of shares in which dividends on Ordinary Shares are permitted to be reinvested (Permitted Alternative Class Shares, or PACS). 1.3 Participation in the DRP is optional and no action is required by you if you wish to continue to receive your full dividend in the usual manner. The DRP is intended to be ongoing so that a shareholder who elects to participate in the DRP will continue to participate unless a notice of variation or termination in the prescribed form is received by the Company from that shareholder. Note however that the Board of VBC may determine, in their discretion, to suspend the operation of or terminate the DRP at any time. 1.4 For Australian tax purposes, you will be treated as if you had received the dividend and used the cash to subscribe for New Shares. That is, you will be liable to pay income tax on your dividend income and you will receive franking credits to the extent that we frank the dividends. You might also be liable for capital gains tax or income tax when you dispose of the New Shares. The Company can take no responsibility for any taxation liability of participants. You should seek professional advice with respect to your taxation position. 1.5 The operation of the DRP is governed by the Terms and Conditions set out below (DRP Terms). 2.1 How to Participate In order to participate in the DRP, you must have completed a Participation Form and lodged it with the Company s external registry, Computershare, at least 2 working days before the relevant Record Date for the Dividend. Computershare s details are as follows: Computershare Investor Services GPO Box 3224 Melbourne VIC 3001 P 1300 137 328 2.2 Full or Partial Participation You may elect to participate as follows: (a) full participation in the DRP; or (b) partial participation in the DRP. If you elect to participate fully in the DRP, then all Ordinary Shares held by you at the relevant Record Date will be treated as participating in the DRP. If you choose partial participation, only the specific number or proportion of shares nominated will participate in the DRP. You may specify any number or proportion of your Ordinary Shares for participation in the DRP. The Company will pay dividends by normal means on Ordinary Shares that are not participating in the DRP. New Shares will be issued in lieu of the cash dividend on those Ordinary Shares that you nominate for participation. 2.3 Rights attaching to New Shares issued under the DRP New Shares issued under the DRP rank equally in all respects with existing shares from the date of issue, unless the VBC Board determines otherwise. 2.4 Participation of New Shares Ordinary Shares which are issued to you under the DRP will automatically participate in the DRP for future dividends on Ordinary Shares, unless you send us a Participation Form which varies this. However, if you choose partial participation, any shares issued or transferred to you under the DRP (or otherwise) will not participate in the DRP unless the number of shares you hold is less than the specific number of shares you have nominated to participate in the DRP. If the Company has introduced a dividend reinvestment plan for PACS (PACS DRP), and you participate in the PACS DRP, PACS which are issued to you under the DRP will automatically participate in the PACS DRP for future dividends on PACS unless you send us a participating form under the PACS DRP which varies this.

2.5 Changing your Participation You may change your participation in the DRP at any time by completing a Participation Form and sending it to Computershare. The change will be effective from the next Record Date following receipt and processing of the form by Computershare. If the number of Ordinary Shares registered in your name changes (apart from additional Ordinary Shares issued to you under the DRP), you only need to contact us to obtain a Participation Form if you wish to change your participation. If you only partially participate in the DRP and you dispose of some of your Ordinary Shares, unless you have notified us of a variation to your participation using a Participation Form, the Ordinary Shares you dispose of will reduce firstly, the number of your nonparticipating Ordinary Shares and, secondly, where there is any residual, the number of your participating Ordinary Shares. Should you acquire Ordinary Shares and your holding rises above your nominated participation you will need to complete a Participation Form if you wish those additional Ordinary Shares to participate. 2.6 Termination You may stop participating in the DRP by sending us a Participation Form electing to withdraw from the DRP. You will be deemed to have withdrawn from the DRP if you transfer your Shares for any reason. The Company may terminate the DRP at any time in its discretion. 2.7 Obtaining and Lodging a Participation Form If you wish to start participating, change your participation or withdraw your participation in the DRP you must tell us by completing and sending us a Participation Form to the address specified on the form. If you need a form, please contact Computershare on 1300 137 328 or email investorrelations@villagebuilding.com.au. A Participation Form takes effect from the first Dividend Payment Date after receipt of the form by Computershare on behalf of the Company providing it is received at least 2 working days before that date, otherwise it will take effect from the next Dividend Payment Date. 2.8 Allotment By nominating Shares to participate in the DRP, you authorise the Company to allot New Shares to you in accordance with the DRP Terms. 2.9 Number of New Shares to be issued Upon the declaration and payment of dividends, we will issue you with a number of New Shares determined by the following formula: If the formula results in a number that is not a whole number, we will round down the number of New Shares to be issued to you, to the nearest whole number of New Shares. Any surplus dividend on Participating Shares not applied for the purchase of New Shares will be held on your behalf for future application on Participating Shares until the balance is sufficient to purchase a whole New Share. If you cease participation in the DRP, we will pay you any outstanding cash balance with the next divided payment. If you cease to be a shareholder, any outstanding cash balance will be forfeited to the Company. 2.10 Multiple Holdings If you have more than one shareholding you will need to lodge a separate Participation Form for each shareholding. 2.11 Alterations to the DRP Terms The Directors may in their absolute discretion alter the DRP Terms at any time. The Directors may also, suspend or terminate the DRP Terms at any time. Changes will take effect fourteen days after we advise you about them. Without limitation, the Directors may determine that a class of shares will cease to be PACS and determine any new class of shares to be PACS for the purposes of the DRP Terms. There is no limit on the number of classes of shares that may be PACS at any one time or from time to time. 2.12 Ranking of New Shares issued under the DRP New Shares issued under the DRP will rank equally with all other shares in the same class from their date of issue. 2.13 Statements and Certificates Statements and/or certificates will be issued promptly after the allotment of New Shares. 2.14 Cost of the DRP You will not be liable for any costs in respect of the issue of New Shares to you under the DRP. Under present law, no stamp duty will be payable on the allotment of New Shares under the DRP. You should seek your own financial and taxation advice in relation to your participation in the DRP. 2.15 Administration In administering the DRP, the Directors have absolute discretion to adopt any administrative procedures deemed appropriate. The decision of the Directors concerning any dispute regarding the DRP s implementation and operation is final and binding on all parties to that dispute. Participants will be bound by the rules of the DRP (as set out in this document and in the DRP Terms) as they exist from time to time.

APPLICATIONS AND NOTICES 11.1 Any notice or application by a Shareholder provided for in the Terms must be in writing, addressed to the Company and in the form prescribed (if any) for that purpose by the Directors. 11.2 By applying to participate in the DRP, the Shareholder agrees to be bound by these Terms and the Constitution in respect of all Shares allotted or transferred to the Shareholder under the DRP 11.3 The Directors may in their absolute and unfettered discretion accept or reject any notice of application to participate in the DRP or discontinue the participation of a Participant in the DRP, without being bound to give any reason for doing so. 11.4 Separate notices or applications must be given in respect of each parcel of Shares identified in the Register by a separate Shareholder Number and a Shareholder is deemed for the purposes of the DRP to be a separate Shareholder in relation to each parcel of Shares identified by a separate Shareholder Number 11.5 A notice required by these Terms to be given to Shareholders by the Company may be given by sending the notice to the registered postal address or nominated email address (if applicable) of the Shareholders (in which case the notice is taken to be given on the date determined in accordance with the Constitution). 11.6 The failure to give a notice of modification, suspension or termination, or the non- receipt of any notice by any Shareholder, does not invalidate the variation, suspension or termination (as the case may be).

12. MODIFICATION, SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION 12.1 The Directors may, in their absolute and unfettered discretion, modify the Terms, or suspend or terminate the DRP at any time. 19. GOVERNING LAW 19.1 The DRP, these Terms and the operation of the DRP will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Australian Capital Territory. 12.2 Subject to clause 9, each Shareholder who was a Participant immediately prior to the suspension of the DRP is taken to continue to participate in the DRP when it recommences. 12.3 Subject to clause 9, in the event that the Terms are modified by the Directors, each Participant is taken to continue to participate in the DRP as varied. 13. COSTS 13.1 No brokerage, commission, stamp duty or other transaction costs will be payable by Participants in respect of any allotment or transfer of Shares under the DRP. 13.2 Any brokerage, commission and other transaction costs in respect of any subsequent disposal of Shares acquired under the DRP by a Participant will be payable by that Participant. 14. DELEGATION The Directors may delegate their obligations under these Terms to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (from time to time). 15. SET-OFF The Directors may, at their discretion, cease the participation in the DRP of a Shareholder where, in accordance with the Constitution or any law, the Directors are entitled to retain all or part of a dividend payable in respect of that Participant s Participating Shares or the Company is entitled to a charge over such Participating Shares or over any dividend payable in respect of such Participating Shares. 16. WAIVER 16.1 The Company reserves the right to waive strict compliance with any of these Terms. 17. DISPUTES 17.1 Any disputes or disagreements arising under or in relation to the DRP or the Terms may be settled by the Directors in any way the Directors think appropriate and any determination made by the Directors will be final and binding. 18. TAXATION 18.1 Neither Company nor its Directors, officers, employees, representatives or agents: (a) take any responsibility or assume any liability for, or as a consequence of, the tax liabilities of any person in connection with the DRP; or (b) represent or warrant that any person will gain any taxation advantage, or will not incur a taxation liability or disadvantage, as a result of participation in the DRP. A Participant should obtain their own independent taxation and investment advice prior to participating in the DRP.
