(iii) Performance hurdles (continued)
Return on Investment (ROI) options (fiscal 2008)
The ROI hurdle has been measured over the following three
performance periods:
For each of the performance periods, the number of options that
will vest is calculated as follows:
• if the threshold target is achieved in the applicable performance
period, then 50% of the allocation of options will vest;
• if the result achieved is between the threshold and stretch
targets, then the number of vested options is scaled
proportionately between 50% and 100%; and
• if the stretch target is achieved, then 100% of the options will
vest.
The maximum number of options that can vest in a performance
period is limited to the initial number allocated, less any options
that may have lapsed.
Performance rights
Details of the relevant performance hurdles in relation to
performance rights are set out below:
Employee Share Rights Plan (ESRP) performance rights (fiscal
2011 and fiscal 2010)
As part of the employee share rights plan, certain eligible
employees were provided performance rights that vest upon
completing certain employment requirements. If an eligible
employee continues to be employed by an entity that forms part of
the Telstra Group three years after the effective allocation date of
the performance rights (and in certain other circumstances), the
performance rights will vest. These performance rights are not
subject to any performance hurdles.
