Annexure: Proposed equity grant

Subject to receiving shareholder approval, GetSwift proposes to issue an
aggregate 600,000 options to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share
each in the capital of the Company (Options).

These Options are intended to be offered to Mr. Pierre-Louis or his
associates, consistent with US market practice for emerging growth
companies and consistent with the previous options awards made to
Non-Executive Directors.

In accordance with commentary in the ASX Corporate Governance Council
Principles and Recommendations, these securities issued to non-executive
directors will not have performance hurdles. Further, they will not vest
if the recipient ceases to be a director of the Company.

The Options will be granted no later than 1 month following shareholder
approval, with an exercise price for each Option being the 30-day VWAP
for shares in the Company immediately prior to the grant date.

Over 3 years, the Options will vest in equal quarterly installments, but
they may only vest if at the time of the applicable vesting the
recipient is still a director of the Company. The Options expire 10
years after their issue date.

Adjustments to numbers of options and exercise price are only as
permitted under ASX Listing Rules. If the shares resulting from the
exercise of the options are issued and not transferred, the Company will
immediately apply for quotation of the shares. The Option terms will
include acceleration of vesting for change of control or liquidity
events. Options are not transferable prior to vesting, other than to
estate planning vehicles. At the request of the Option holder and
subject to all applicable law, options may be net exercised.
