Performance Share Plan –
Discontinued
The Performance Share Plan (PSP) was discontinued in 2009. It was a medium-term deferred share incentive plan,
that operated as follows:
At the start of Year 1, the Qantas Board set performance targets for each Balanced Scorecard measure
At the conclusion of Year 1, the Board assessed performance against each target and awarded deferred shares to
Executives if targets were achieved
Any deferred shares awarded were subject to a vesting period which expires at the end of Year 2 in relation to
one half of the shares and the end of Year 3 in relation to the other half of the shares
Generally, any unvested deferred shares would be forfeited if the relevant Executive ceases employment with the
Qantas Group
The grant date and number of deferred shares awarded to Key Management Personnel are outlined on page 87.
The accounting expense relating to share grants are disclosed in the remuneration table on page 43.
