ASX ANNOUNCEMENT



Calibre Group Limited (ASX: CGH)


2 December 2015 Company Announcements

Australian Securities Exchange Limited Level 4, 20 Bridge Street

Dear Sir / Madam


Employee Share Purchase Plan - Matching Shares Issued


As announced on 30 November 2015, Calibre Group Limited (ASX:CGH) ('Calibre' or the 'Company') shareholders resolved to delist the Company.


As a consequence, the Board has decided to accelerate an entitlement to shares for its employees who are participants in the Company's Employee Share Purchase Plan ('ESPP').


Full details of the ESPP were provided in the Remuneration Report section of Calibre's Preliminary Final Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2015, released to ASX on 20 August 2015 (p15).


The Company notes that the primary focus of the ESPP is to support the Company's ability to attract and retain key staff below Executive level in an increasingly tight and competitive labour market. Eligible employees in the ESPP could elect to contribute up to $5,000 of their own funds to purchase CGH shares ('Acquired Shares'). Under the ESPP, such employees would, after 12 months, be entitled to receive a free 'Matched Share' for each Acquired Share held, on a one-for-one basis, from Calibre. The Board has elected to allow ESPP participants to receive the Matched Share before delisting, so that they can participate in the buy back, or sell their shares on market should they wish to do so. Employees are not required to participate in the buy back.


A number of Calibre's staff took up this ESPP offer, and consequently, the Company will now issue an additional 720,697 shares to these participants.


An Appendix 3B in respect of this new issue of shares is attached.
