Superannuation Contribution Choices Form Only use this form to make or change your choices for your superannuation contributions Your available choices What you should do How you wish to receive the Company contributions your employer makes to your super above the 9.5% Superannuation Guarantee minimum (if any). (Note: Does not apply to FAR employees or defined benefit members) To direct your Company contributions to a complying super fund other than the Incitec Pivot Employees Superannuation Fund (IPE Super), which is the default super fund for employees of the Incitec Pivot Group. To make or change the amount of your additional voluntary contributions to super and, if so, whether these contributions should be deducted from your before-tax or after-tax salary. You can also use this form if you wish to cease making additional voluntary contributions. Complete Sections 1, 2 and 5 Complete Sections 1, 3 (including the Standard choice form) and 5 Complete Sections 1, 4 and 5 Section 1: Your personal details (please print) Title: Employee no.: Given name: Surname: Home address: Date of birth: / / Page 1 of 8

Section 2: Your Company contributions Under superannuation law, your employer is required to contribute a minimum of 9.5% of your Ordinary Time Earnings to super. These Company contributions are also known as Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions. Depending on your employment conditions, your employer may contribute an amount higher than the 9.5% SG minimum (Note: does not apply to Fixed Pay* employees). If so, you can choose to have this higher amount either paid to your super or added to your salary and paid to you in cash (subject to income tax). To see the level of Company contributions you receive, refer to your employment contract. * Note: The Company contribution for Fixed Pay employees is calculated automatically as 9.5% of your Ordinary Time Earnings up to the maximum superannuation contribution base (i.e. 9.5% of $216,120 for the 2018/19 financial year). This means the maximum SG contribution will be $20,531 p.a. It is assessed quarterly so the maximum quarterly contribution is $5,132.85. Tick ONE box below to tell us what you wish to do. I would like my entire Company contribution to be paid to my super (including any amount above the 9.5% SG minimum). I would like to take any amount above the 9.5% SG minimum as cash salary (this amount is subject to income tax). Your choice will be effective from the next pay period after your form is received by the HR Services Centre. Section 3: Choice of super fund / Standard choice form Under the Choice of Fund laws, you can choose which super fund you would like your Company contributions paid to. Incitec Pivot has nominated IPE Super as the default fund for your Company contributions. This means that your Company contributions will be paid to IPE Super automatically unless you choose another super fund. If you want your Company contributions to be paid to another super fund, you should complete Section A of the Standard choice form (on page 4) and return it to the HR Services Centre. Be sure to attach all of the necessary documentation listed on the Standard choice form. Without this documentation, IPL cannot process your Choice of Fund request. Important: Choice of Fund and the implications for your super If you re a current member of IPE Super, directing your Company contributions to another super fund has implications for your super. For example: Your existing death and disablement insurance cover (including any voluntary insurance) will cease if you close your account in IPE Super. You will need to make insurance arrangements through your new super fund or take out personal cover. You should check the fees of any fund you are considering, as they may be more than you pay as a member of IPE Super. Further, if you re a Defined Benefit member and you wish to choose another fund, you will first be required to transfer your defined benefit to IPE Super s Accumulation section. This means that you will no longer have access to a Lifetime or Deferred Pension through the Fund and, once you have transferred your benefit, you cannot transfer your super back into the Defined Benefit section.

For the 2018/2019 tax year, the limit is $25,000 p.a. regardless of your age. Contributions in excess of the cap (that you do not elect to release from the superannuation system) will be taxed at your marginal tax rate less the 15% contributions tax already deducted by your super fund, plus an interest charge. Before-tax contributions (salary sacrifice) are subject to Company approval. ** Any after-tax contributions you make to super, along with certain other amounts, are referred to as non-concessional contributions. These contributions are not taxed when paid into superannuation, provided the amount paid is limited to $100,000 p.a. If you are under age 65 and you want to make larger non-concessional contributions to your super fund, you may be able to bring forward up to two years of caps, to make total contributions of up to $300,000 over three years.

Transitional rules apply if you brought forward contributions in 2016/17. If you exceed the cap and you do not withdraw the excess contributions and associated earnings from super, the excess will be taxed at up to 47% (including the Medicare levy).
