PART 1 - BACKGROUND STATEMENT
I am pleased to present the report for the remuneration and nominations committee (Remcom) for the financial year ended 30 June 2020, highlighting the key issues considered during this period. The Remcom has considered the recommendations provided in King IV™ as well as the JSE Listings Requirements, and has incorporated a number of the recommended practices in this report.
As we implement the principles and recommended practices of King IV™, we are comfortable that many aspects of the group's remuneration policy are aligned with the spirit of King IV™.
This remuneration report conforms to the reporting structure recommended in King IV™ and is presented in three parts, namely:
We believe it will provide sufficient clarity on how the group's remuneration policy informs actual pay and awards received by the executive directors (EDs), prescribed officers and senior management and how it supports the group's strategy to attract and retain talent.
Remcom contracted the services of 21st Century Pay Solutions (21st Century) to assess and benchmark ED and prescribed officer remuneration, and is of the view that, in rendering the service, 21st Century is independent and objective.
Prior to COVID-19 and resultant lockdown, the group's performance was credible, despite constrained consumer spending, challenging trading conditions, including subdued government travel, political uncertainty, negative investor sentiment, given the current political and economic climate, depressed business confidence, drought, competitor activity marked by increased supply and aggressive discounting and union demands.
Key areas of focus and decisions taken during the reporting period included:
Post-year-end, the committee considered the impact of the rights offer in relation to the company's various incentive plans. The full impact of any adjustment that may be considered necessary will be reported in the 2021 report.
There have been no deviations from, and no substantial changes effected to, the remuneration policy since it was last presented. We, however, continue our efforts to enhance our reporting, specifically in respect of disclosure of certain pay elements.
Future areas of focus:
In alignment with a value creation and pay for performance culture, the company places a greater emphasis on variable pay for EDs and Exco, which the Remcom monitors on a continuous basis.
The committee remains committed to remunerating its employees fairly and responsibly.
The group acknowledges the principle of fair and responsible executive remuneration and is sensitive to the wage differential between executive and lower-income employees, acknowledging that the gap between the remuneration of executives and lower-level employees requires attention. In recognition of the differential, the Remcom has embarked on a programme where over the past several years, the percentage increase awarded to the lower paid employees was higher than that awarded to the highest paid, save for certain exceptions where packages were found to be lagging the market or following a change in responsibilities. The group's minimum wage is approximately 2.2 times more than the statutory minimum for the industry. The top 10% of the organisation earns approximately 15 times more than the bottom 10% (compared to national figures reported in 2015, where the top 10% of full-time South African employees took home, on average, 82 times more than the bottom 10%, with the average earnings for white workers more than three times higher than for African workers (Isaacs, 2016)).
In an effort to find a balance between the interests of executives and shareholders, a significant portion of their pay is at risk and subject to stretching performance conditions. To ensure the incentives serve their purpose, the committee will commission a review thereof during 2021 and shareholders will be consulted, where appropriate.
That said, and taking into account the challenges the industry faces, the committee recognises that in order to ensure a focused drive to meeting shareholder expectations, the group's top talent must be presented with a competitive value proposition in terms of total remuneration.
We are conscious of the importance of employee wellbeing in the workplace and consistently and continuously assess and review the remuneration policies, including benefits, in place to ensure the company is offering the best benefits, bearing affordability in mind.
At the annual general meeting (AGM) held on 7 November 2019, 97.14% and 99.17% of shareholders, represented or present, voted in favour of the remuneration policy and implementation report, respectively.
In compliance with King IV™ and the JSE Listings Requirements, the remuneration policy and the implementation report respectively are set out in parts 2 and 3 and will be tabled at the forthcoming AGM, scheduled for 11 December 2020, for separate non-binding advisory votes. In the event that the remuneration policy and/or implementation report are voted against by 25% or more of the voting rights exercised, we will undertake to engage with our shareholders in order to determine how to address their legitimate and reasonable concerns.
In conclusion, the Remcom is of the view that:
Assessed against King IV™ and the JSE Listings Requirements, the Remcom is satisfied with remuneration compliance.

PART 2 - OVERVIEW OF THE REMUNERATION PHILOSOPHY AND POLICY
This report details the activities of the Remcom and provides an overview of the group's philosophy, principles and approach with regard to remuneration, specifically highlighting remuneration applicable to EDs, Exco and NEDs, as well as its implementation during the year. The remuneration policy will be put forward to shareholders in order to obtain a non-binding vote at the next AGM. The full remuneration policy is available online at www.clhg.com.
The Remcom is responsible for overseeing the governance of remuneration matters. It is specifically responsible for ensuring that the company remunerates its EDs and senior executives fairly and responsibly, and that the remuneration policies in place serve the group's long-term interests.
In discharging its responsibility, Remcom reviews the remuneration policy and its implementation on an annual basis.
Remcom also considers management's recommendations, and in turn makes recommendations to the board on the fees payable to the NEDs, which recommendations are subject to shareholder approval.
Specifics with regard to the composition, role and responsibilities of the Remcom, activities undertaken during the year and the remuneration policy are disclosed in Corporate Governance
Reward philosophy and strategy statement
The group's policy is to pay its staff at a market rate comparable to similar roles within the market. On the basis that the ED and Exco's guaranteed package is benchmarked across industries, with reference to size and turnover, and in order to attract scarce and critical skills to implement the group's strategy and retain high-calibre individuals at this level, the company aims to set its guaranteed pay at the upper quartile. In respect of the remaining employees, the company aims to pay between the mean and upper quartile within a normal distribution range of the relevant industry (hotels and hospitality).
CLHG is committed to developing, implementing and upholding total reward strategies and practices which:

The total reward strategy is aimed at:
Remuneration structure
The various components of remuneration applicable to South African employees are as follows:

Annually - 1 August to 31 July |
Reviewed annually, having regard to the approved increase mandate, benchmark data received from independent remuneration consultants, where applicable, macroeconomic factors, inflation, affordability, scarcity of skills, complexity of role, experience and performance. |
Payment takes place monthly and comprises a mix of cash salary as well as compulsory and discretionary benefits. |

Bi-annually - 1 July to 31 December and 1 January to 30 June |
To create a performance culture and reward employees for achieving strong annual results when compared against predetermined targets and, in so doing, aligning employee focus and shareholder experience. |
Cash settlement capped at a percentage of TGP depending on individual's role. The standard payout level is generally expressed as a percentage of salary and then moderated by the performance score. |
The merit of putting a qualifying employee forward for participation is debated between the divisional director of operations or head of division and the chief executive officer (CEO), and once reviewed by the external auditors, qualifying candidates are recommended to Remcom for approval. |

Financial measure: Bi-annually - 1 July to 31 December and 1 January to 30 June Non-financial measure: Annually - 1 July to 30 June |
Financial targets (65% weighting) are measured bi-annually with reference to the group average achieved for PAL. Non-financial measures (35% weighting) comprise individual key performance areas (KPA), which in turn have reference to the group's strategic objectives. Targets for measuring the achievement of the non-financial performance criteria are individually tailored and are predetermined prior to the commencement of an incentive period, in consultation with the CEO. Achievement of these targets incrementally trigger awards. A point scale of 0 to 7 points per KPA is utilised to measure achievement against each set and agreed KPA:

Financial drivers (65% weighting) comprise the weighting assigned to the group pool drivers, namely normalised group EBITDA (70%) and normalised fully diluted HEPS (30%) with the percentage threshold performance scale reflecting a bonus rating of 75% if the percentage target achieved is 85% for EBITDA and 90% for HEPS. The percentage target performance scale will reflect a bonus rating of 100% if the percentage target achieved is 100% for both EBITDA and HEPS. The stretch performance scale will reflect a bonus rating of:
Non-financial measures (35% weighting) include, but are not limited to, the achievement of, alternatively progress made towards the achievement of, strategic objectives, group performance against peers/competitors, increase in profit, completing projects within budget and/or prior to deadline and other key performance drivers of the business, e.g. return on equity (ROE).

SAR Scheme | RSP | |||
Description | Participants receive a conditional right to receive shares in the company, equal to the difference between the exercise price and the grant price multiplied by the number of SAR awards exercised. | Participants will receive a full share and become a shareholder on the award date, but subject to forfeiture in the event that the employee leaves the employment of the company within a specified period. These shares entitle participants to share in dividends and to exercise voting rights.However, the participant cannot sell or encumber the shares prior to vesting. | ||
Purpose | To attract, retain and incentivise employees. | To attract, retain and incentivise employees.To provide selected employees with the opportunity of receiving shares in the company.The RSP was initially used as a retention mechanism or as a tool to attract prospective employees, but is now being used as a tool to incentivise and retain employees. | ||
Eligibility | ED Exco Senior management |
ED Exco Senior management Head office management General managers |
||
Company limit | The aggregate number of shares which may be allocated under the SAR and RSP at any time may not exceed 2 997 074 shares. This limit excludes shares purchased in the market and shares forfeited. |
|||
Individual limit | The maximum number of shares which may be allocated to any one individual in respect of unvested SAR and RSP awards may not exceed 428 154 shares. |
|||
Settlement method | The rules of the LTI plans cater for the following:
However, the group's preference is to settle all awards under the SAR and RSP from a market purchase of shares. The rules of the RSP have been drafted more broadly to also include the use of treasury shares as a settlement method. As a fall-back provision, the employee may be paid cash in lieu of shares (SAR). |
|||
Termination of employment | Participants terminating employment prior to the vesting date of a particular award will be classified as a good or bad leaver. Bad leavers will forfeit all awards on the date of termination of employment. In the case of good leavers, a pro rata portion of all unvested awards will vest on the date of termination of employment. The pro rata portion will reflect the number of months served since the date of grant and the extent to which the performance conditions (if any) have been met. The balance of the awards will lapse. In the case of the SAR Scheme, all vested awards should be exercised within six months from the date of termination of employment. |
|||
Change of control | In the case of a change of control, a pro rata portion of all unvested awards will vest on the date of change of control. The pro rata portion will reflect the number of months served since the date of grant and the extent to which the performance conditions (if any) have been met and are to be exercised within a period determined by Remcom. |
|||
Variation in share capital | In the event of a variation in share capital, the participants will continue to participate in the various long-term incentive (LTI) plans. Remcom may, however, where the group's value has been materially affected, make an adjustment to the number of awards to give a participant an equivalent fair value of the equity capital as to which he/she would have been entitled prior to the event. | |||
Allocation methodology | Annual, subject to the discretion of the Remcom. SAR awards = (SAR face value % of TGP x TGP)/grant price. |
Restricted shares: ad hoc, as determined by Remcom. Bonus shares: annually, subject to the discretion of Remcom and subject to the earning of a cash bonus as measured against the defined performance criteria of the STI. Value of bonus shares = bonus match % x total annual bonus. Bonus shares = (individual value of bonus/total bonus) x number of bonus shares acquired. |
||
Grant price | The volume weighted average share price for the 10 business days prior to the date of grant. | N/A | ||
Vesting period | Three years | Three years | ||
Lapse period | Seven years | N/A | ||
Performance conditions | Growth in normalised, fully diluted HEPS. Two HEPS targets will be set:
25% will vest if threshold performance is achieved and 100% will vest if target performance is achieved. Linear vesting will occur between the threshold and the target. |
The earning of a short-term incentive (STI), which is subject to defined performance criteria, is the proxy for participation. No other performance conditions, save for continued employment, are imposed. |

Employee share ownership – City Lodge 10th Anniversary Employees' Share Trust (10th Anniversary Trust) and Injabulo Staff Share Scheme (Injabulo Trust)
All employees not participating in the group's LTI plans and who, at the relevant date, being the first day of the month following that during which the company pays its final dividend, have been in the full-time employ of the company for at least 12 months, are eligible to participate in the 10th Anniversary Trust and, when it unwinds, the Injabulo Trust.
10th Anniversary Trust
The 10th Anniversary Trust holds approximately 1.16% of the group's issued share capital, which was acquired through an interest-free loan from the company, the details of which can be found in the directors' report.
The Injabulo Trust
The Injabulo Trust was established with the implementation of the group's black economic empowerment transaction whereby the Vuwa SPV and the University of Johannesburg School for Tourism and Hospitality, together with the Staff Trust SPV acquired 15% of the group's issued share capital. The Injabulo Trust is the sole shareholder of the Staff Trust SPV, which holds 5.87% of the group's issued share capital. The note on page 136 provides more information in this regard.
Subject to the provisions of the respective trust deeds, including, inter alia, funding arrangements, beneficiaries are entitled to the following:
No income and/or growth distributions will be made under the Injabulo Trust until the loan in respect of the shares held by the Staff Trust SPV has been repaid in full.
Service contracts and notice periods
There are no contractual arrangements applicable to the appointments and termination of the EDs or Exco.
All employees are issued with a letter of appointment detailing their remuneration as well as notice period, which is one month for all staff, except for general managers, head office managers and heads of departments where two months' notice applies and Exco and EDs where three months' notice applies.
Regarding the ED and Exco:
Appointment and term
The appointment of directors is a matter for the board as a whole, assisted where appropriate by Remcom, and subject at all times to the approval of shareholders.
Board appointments are governed by the Companies Act, JSE Listings Requirements, policy on the appointment to the board and gender diversity and the group's MoI, which provide for at least one-third of the NEDs to retire by rotation at the group's AGM. The directors so retiring may, if eligible, offer themselves for re-election. Termination of office may occur at retirement age, or alternatively will occur if a director is prohibited by law from being a director, fails to be re-elected, is found to be guilty of misconduct or fails to attend meetings without good reason, or poor performance.
NEDs do not have service contracts, but are issued with letters of appointment detailing, among other things, their responsibilities.
They do not participate in the group's STI and LTI schemes.
Fees and basis of remuneration
Fees payable to the NEDs are reviewed annually and are not linked to the group's share price or performance.
In recognition of their ongoing responsibilities and contribution outside of meetings, as well as historically good meeting attendance, NEDs receive an annual fee, not a base fee and fee per meeting attended. The same applies to sub-committees, with a premium being paid to the chairmen. The fee paid to the chairman of the board is inclusive of all board and committee attendances as well as other responsibilities across the group.
Exceptional circumstances may present themselves which merit the establishment of an ad hoc sub-committee of the board to investigate and advise the full board on a matter and justify payment of fees in addition to those paid to NEDs for their services. In compliance with the Companies Act, the company would, without the prior approval of shareholders, not be able to remunerate the members of such ad hoc committee for the extraordinary services rendered. Accordingly provision is made for payment of such fees.
The fee structure is as far as possible aligned with the market, taking cognisance of the size and market capitalisation of the various companies included in the sample considered when determining fees payable, as well as macro-economic factors, consumer price index (CSI), the financial position of the company and additional responsibilities placed on board members by new legislation and corporate governance principles.
Based on management's recommendations, Remcom and in turn the board review and propose NED fees to shareholders at the AGM. Fees are:
The fee structure, as approved by shareholders, remains in place for the financial year.
Travel, hotel and other expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred on company business is covered by the company, subject to production of the appropriate supporting documentation in accordance with the travel policy.
Premiums for directors' and officers' insurance cover are also paid by the company.
PART 3 - IMPLEMENTATION REPORT
Guaranteed pay is reviewed annually taking the approved increase mandate, macro-economic factors and performance into account. Mandated increases take effect on 1 August.
Exco members are formally graded using the 21st Century Pay Solutions Execumeasure system (Execumeasure), as well as in terms of the Paterson grading model in an effort to ensure effective benchmarking.
The annual review of Exco's fixed remuneration, which takes place between May and July, is benchmarked to the market. In carrying out its mandate to promote fair and responsible remuneration, Remcom engaged the services of 21st Century to report on market increase trends and organisations' responses to COVID-19.
The board, having considered Remcom's recommendation, taking current circumstances, benchmark data received from 21st Century and affordability into consideration agreed to a 0% increase for all staff, with effect from 1 August 2020.
PAL bonus
Hotel performance averaged at 62.50% and 0%, respectively, for the first measurement period, the second period not having been measured due to lockdown and the resultant closure of the group's hotels. This translated into a group average payout of 4.27% of half-annual salary for the first six months, reflective of the already challenging operating conditions.
ECPMS
No STIs were payable to the Exco under the circumstances, notwithstanding that certain KPAs may have been met.
EDIS
No STIs were payable to the EDs under the circumstances, notwithstanding that certain KPAs may have been met.
Granted and awarded
There have been no changes to policies regarding SAR and RSP. The details of the allocations made during the financial year are set out as follows:
SAR Scheme
Annual awards are made with reference to the face value of the award and determined using the below formula:
The following performance conditions were imposed:
Performance conditions
Threshold performance condition average annual percentage growth in normalised fully diluted HEPS (as reported in the published annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019, being 613.40 cents) over a three-year period exceeds the average annual growth in the CPI per annum over the same three-year period.
Target performance condition average annual percentage growth in normalised fully diluted HEPS (as reported in the published annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019, being 613.40 cents) over a three-year period exceeds the average annual growth in CPI +2 percentage points per annum over the same three-year period.
RSP
The RSP operates in conjunction with the STI. There are no performance criteria other than the earning of a cash bonus as measured against the defined performance criteria of the STI and continued employment with the company.
In total, 33 847 shares were allocated to 60 participants during the financial year.
Employee share ownership - 10th Anniversary Share Trust
In total, 944 employees received a cash distribution of R1 567.80 from the 10th Anniversary Trust during the reporting period (2019: 949 employees received a cash distribution amounting to R1 900 and growth distribution of three shares).
Following the non-achievement of the performance conditions imposed in respect of the 2017 grant, as confirmed by the Remcom, the 2017 SAR award did not vest.
The composition of remuneration outcomes during the 2020 financial year for the executive directors (prescribed officers) are represented graphically below.
