Name of Secretary authorising lodgement:

Julie Hutton

Company Secretary

1 Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX.

Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of rule 4.10.3.

  1. "Corporate governance statement" is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.
  2. Mark whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where the entity's corporate governance statement can be found. You can, if you wish, delete the option which is not applicable.

Throughout this form, where you are given two or more options to select, you can, if you wish, delete any option which is not applicable and just retain the option that is applicable. If you select an option that includes "OR" at the end of the selection and you delete the other options, you can also, if you wish, delete the "OR" at the end of the selection.

2020 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

The information in this Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 30 April 2020 and has been approved by the Metcash Limited (Metcash or Company) board of directors (Board).

Metcash is committed to maintaining strong corporate governance practices and high standards of behaviour and accountability, which underpins our approach to sustainably enhancing shareholder value and protecting the interests of stakeholders.

The Company requires that all Directors, senior executives and team members act ethically and responsibly at all times.

The Board reviews the Metcash Group's corporate governance policies and practices periodically to ensure they reflect, in all substantial respects, changes and developments in corporate governance regulations and practices in Australia, including the ASX Corporate Governance Council Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (ASX Principles and Recommendations).

This Corporate Governance Statement sets out Metcash's corporate governance framework and approach. The Appendix 4G accompanying this Corporate Governance Statement provides a checklist of each recommendation set out in the 3rd Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations, confirms that Metcash has followed each recommendation for the full financial year ended 30 April 2020 (FY20) and cross-references where that compliance is disclosed. This Corporate Governance Statement and the accompanying Appendix 4G are both available on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

The Board has reviewed the Metcash Group's corporate governance policies and practices against the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations released on 27 February 2019. This Corporate Governance Statement and the accompanying Appendix 4G reports against the 3rd Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations. Many of the new suggestions contained in the 4th Edition are already embedded in the Group's existing governance arrangements, as outlined in this Corporate Governance Statement.

Page | 1

PRINCIPLE 1: LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARD AND MANAGEMENT

Metcash is governed by a Board of Directors (the Board) who are elected by the shareholders with the exception of the Group Chief Executive Officer (appointed by the Board). The Board recognises its overriding responsibility to act honestly, fairly, diligently and in accordance with the law in serving the interests of Metcash's shareholders and our stakeholders which include our team members, customers, suppliers and the community. It works to promote and maintain an ethical environment within Metcash that establishes these principles as basic guidelines for all of its team members and representatives at all times.

In discharging these responsibilities, the Board continues to focus on the cultural tone of the organisation, 'setting the tone from the top', and overseeing reporting on culture. The Directors are mindful of the recommendations of various inquiries, reviews and reports in Australia which touch on corporate culture and are continuing to oversee and evaluate their culture responsibilities and initiatives in light of those recommendations.

The Board is responsible for defining the Company's purpose and values and setting its strategic direction and risk appetite and for overseeing and monitoring its businesses, affairs and risks. The Board reviews and approves the Group's strategic and business plans and guiding policies. Metcash's purpose and values are disclosed in a number of ways, as is now a recommendation in the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations, including on Metcash's website.

Day-to-day management of the Group's affairs and implementation of its strategy and policy initiatives are delegated to the Group Chief Executive Officer and senior executives, who operate in accordance with Board-approved policies.

In order to assist the Board with its responsibilities, it has established the following Board Committees:

  • Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee
  • Nomination Committee
  • People and Culture Committee.

The Board's Charter and those of its Board Committees can be found on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre. The Charters were updated during the year in light of the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations.

Company Secretary

All Directors have access to the Company Secretary who is accountable to the Board, through the Chair, on all governance matters.

EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE BOARD AND SENIOR EXECUTIVES

Board Effectiveness

Annual reviews of the Board, its Committees and Directors are performed, alternating each year between an internal self-evaluation and an external independent review conducted by a recognised Board performance and effectiveness consultant. In FY20 an internal self-evaluation was undertaken. In addition, the Board also participates in Metcash's annual Engagement survey, and will review the results from the survey conducted in FY20 when the challenges of handling the COVID-19 situation abate.

The annual review of the Board evaluates a number of areas including: the Board's role, accountabilities and governance; Board processes and support (from management generally and from the Office of the Company Secretary specifically); the Board's capabilities and quality of contribution; the Board's culture; Board Committees; achievement against action items arising from

Page | 2

prior Board reviews; the Board's major strengths and pressing needs/areas for improvement; succession; priorities, challenges and issues; and performance generally.

Senior Executive Effectiveness

On an annual basis, the People and Culture Committee reviews the performance of the Group Chief Executive Officer against qualitative and quantitative criteria, which include profit performance, other financial measures, review of behaviours and achievement of the Group's strategic objectives. The Group Chief Executive Officer's performance was reviewed in accordance with this process in FY21 in respect of his FY20 performance.

The Company maintains a performance evaluation process which measures other senior executives against previously agreed Strategic Objectives, Key Measures and Performance Targets in a balanced Business Scorecard format. The Scorecards for the Group Chief Executive Officer and all senior executives are available to the Board each month for progress review. Each senior executive reviews their progress against their Scorecard progressively through the year with a formal annual performance evaluation occurring following the year end. Senior executives' performance was reviewed in accordance with this process in FY21 in respect of their FY20 performance. Whilst the COVID-19 outbreak persists during FY21, senior executives will continue to work with a set of three key priorities: protecting the health and wellbeing of our people; delivering essential services by keeping our supply chains open; and making sure our business remains strong for all stakeholders. Given the uncertainty, the FY21 financial targets that are in place will be monitored and updated, as required. Non-financial targets will be developed as the environment becomes more settled.

Senior executives also agree Personal Career and Development Plans to update and enhance their skills and knowledge.

OUR APPROACH TO DIVERSITY

Diversity and inclusion remains a key driver of employee engagement at Metcash and plays an important role in our goal of being a favourite place to work.

In the past 12 months we have:

  • Again secured the Workplace Gender Equality Agency's citation as an Employer of Choice for
    Gender Equality.
  • Shared best practices for achieving pay equality outcomes with other industry representatives.
  • Continued the Metcash Diversity & Inclusion Council, with representation from senior leaders across the organisation. The Council focuses on supporting diversity and inclusion at all levels of Metcash.
  • Established a Women's Forum to define an action plan to improve the participation and progression of women at Metcash.
  • Continued a number of activities and initiatives, including Listening Posts, to encourage open dialogue around diversity and inclusion.
  • Held multiple forums to celebrate International Women's Day, International Men's Day and LGBTQI Pride events across Australia and New Zealand.
  • Consciously supported women in our traditionally male dominated industries through membership of councils and associations that provide networking opportunities, personal and professional development and mentoring for women.
  • Put in place annualised targets for female representation to help us achieve our goal of a 40:40:20 gender distribution (that is, 40% male, 40% female, and a buffer of 20% between that

Page | 3

gender split) across our Board, senior executives and workforce generally, and regularly report our progress towards them.

  • Retained female participation at Board level at 50% or more (of the Non-executive Directors) for the majority of the year. Sadly, with the unexpected passing of one of our female Non-executive Directors, Wai Tang, the participation level has dropped to 40% (of the Non-executive Directors).
  • Provided employees access to resources, information and support through membership with the Diversity Council Australia (DCA).
  • Continued to actively encourage practices that allow employees to manage their health and wellbeing and home commitments.
  • Leveraged our comprehensive program, supported by an expanded Policy, to encourage the broader adoption of flexible working practices, which saw us very well prepared when the COVID- 19 outbreak occurred to have a large percentage of our people successfully work from home.
  • Continued to support employees experiencing domestic and family abuse.
  • Actively monitored and reported to the Board any allegations of bullying and harassment across the organisation.
  • Supported team leaders and team members to adopt inclusive and appropriate behavioural norms, where appropriate.
  • Actively supported teams with training to improve the culture of inclusion, where appropriate.
  • Maintained our "Fifth Week" program, where eligible employees are able to take an additional week of annual leave by reducing their accrued leave to nil.
  • Continued learning programs to support diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
  • Increased the representation of women on the senior executive team to 25%.

Metcash's Diversity Policy can be found on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

To support robust, defensible and equitable remuneration practices, Metcash uses a globally benchmarked job evaluation and remuneration framework, which sizes roles fairly and equitably against key criteria and market data, and recommends market-driven remuneration guidelines. Within this framework, Metcash is able to benchmark its remuneration practices against over 400 leading Australian and global organisations.

The current workplace profile, captured below, shows that in the reporting year Metcash saw:

  • Female representation among the Non-executive Directors on our Board reduced to 40%, due to the unexpected and very sad passing of Wai Tang. A search is underway to find her replacement.
  • Female representation among managers decrease slightly to 29%.
  • Overall female representation increase slightly to 32%.

Metcash is a "relevant employer" under the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012 (Cth) and, accordingly, is required to make annual filings with the Workplace Gender Equality Agency disclosing its "Gender Equality Indicators", as defined in and published under that Act. Metcash's latest "Gender Equality Indicators" can be accessed here https://www.wgea.gov.au/public-reports

PRINCIPLE 2: STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE

  1. MAJORITY OF THE BOARD SHOULD BE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

Appointment to the Board

The Board's policy for the selection, appointment and re-appointment of Directors is to ensure that the Board possesses an appropriate range of skills, experience and expertise to enable the Board to most effectively carry out its responsibilities. As part of this appointment process, the Directors consider Board renewal and succession plans and whether the Board is of a size and composition that is conducive to making appropriate decisions.

Prior to Directors standing for re-election, the Nomination Committee reviews the skills and contribution of the Directors concerned, including having regard to the findings and feedback from the most recent internal self-evaluation or external independent review, and decides whether the Committee supports their re-election. The Committee then recommends its decision to the Board, who determines (taking cognisance of the Nomination Committee's recommendation) whether to support the re-election.

When a vacancy exists or is pending, or when it is considered that the Board would benefit from the services of a new Director with particular skills, the Nomination Committee selects a panel of candidates with appropriate expertise and experience. This may be supplemented with advice from external consultants if necessary. When reviewing potential Director candidates, the Nomination Committee considers experience, skills and education, and conducts appropriate background checks including as to a candidate's good fame and character.

The Board, on the Committee's recommendation, then appoints the most suitable candidate who must stand for election at the next general meeting of shareholders, and all material information relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect the candidate is included in the notice of meeting.

In FY20, this process resulted in the appointment on 1 August 2019 of Mr Peter Birtles and Ms Wai Tang as Non-executive Directors. With the passing of Ms Tang, a search is underway in accordance with this process to find a replacement.

At the time of appointment, each Director is required to sign a written agreement which sets out the terms of their appointment. Directors are not appointed for a fixed term but, under the Company's Constitution and relevant Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) Listing Rules, must be re-elected at least each three years by rotation.

Board Composition

Maintaining a balance of experience and skills is an important factor in Board composition. For details of the skills, experience and expertise of the individual Directors, and the period of office held by each Director, please refer to the 'Operating and Financial Review' section within our Annual Report.

The following matrix summarises the skills and experience represented on Metcash's Board:

Each year, the Nomination Committee reviews the skills and experience represented on Metcash's Board and considers whether there are any areas that should be addressed through Board renewal and succession. The Nomination Committee also annually reviews the professional development needs of the Directors (as is now a recommendation in the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations).

Independent Non-executive Directors

The Board only considers Directors to be independent where they are free of any interest, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect his or her capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interests of Metcash and its security holders generally.

When assessing the independence of a Director, the Board will consider whether the Director:

  • is a substantial shareholder of the Company or an officer of, or otherwise associated with, a substantial shareholder of the Company;
  • is or has been employed in an executive capacity by the Company or another Group member and there has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving on the Board;
  • is or has been within the last three years a principal, partner, director or senior employee of a provider of material professional services to the Company or another Group member;
  • is or has been within the last three years in a material business relationship (e.g. as a supplier or customer) with the Company or other Group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated with someone with such a relationship;
  • has a material contractual relationship with the Company or another Group member other than as a Director of the Company or other Group member;
  • has close family ties with any person who falls within any of the above categories; or
  • has been a Director of the Company for such a period that their independence may have been compromised.

The 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations provides, as an additional example of an interest that might raise issues about the independence of a director of an entity: where the director receives performance-based remuneration (including options or performance rights) from, or participates in an employee incentive scheme of, the entity. None of the Non-executive Directors of

Page | 6

Metcash receives such performance-based remuneration or participates in any Metcash employee incentive scheme.

Directors are required to declare any interests which may impact their independence to the Board for review.

Independent Directors hold key positions that include chairing the Board and the Board Committees of Audit, Risk and Compliance, People and Culture and Nomination. They provide an external perspective and checks and balances for the interests of all shareholders.

An assessment of the independence of each Director was completed at the conclusion of the 2020 financial year having regard to the factors outlined above. Materiality, for the purpose of considering whether a Director is an officer of or associated with a material supplier or customer, is assessed as supplying 2.5% or more of the Metcash Group's annual purchases or purchasing 2.5% or more of the Metcash Group's annual sales. Following this review and as at the date of this Statement, the Board consists of six Directors, five of whom are Non-executive, and all five of whom are considered to be Independent Directors (being Robert Murray, Peter Birtles, Tonianne Dwyer, Murray Jordan and Helen Nash).

Any association between a Director and an entity with whom Metcash has a business relationship is disclosed in the Company's financial report each year. Each of Mr Murray, Ms Dwyer and Ms Nash hold positions in companies with which Metcash has business relationships, however the Board has considered each case separately and, having regard to the nature and value of the business relationships, has concluded that these positions do not influence their respective capacity to exercise independent judgement or their ability to act in the best interests of Metcash and its security holders. None of these Directors are involved in any Board decision-making regarding the companies with which they have an association.

Executive Directors

The Board has one Executive Director, Mr Jeffery Adams, who was appointed as Metcash's Group Chief Executive Officer on 5 December 2017. All senior executives, including Executive Directors, are required to enter into written agreements setting out the terms of their appointment and employment. Appropriate checks are also undertaken for senior executives before appointment.

All Directors, whether independent or not, bring an independent judgement to bear on Board decisions.

Professional Development and Independent Professional Advice

Metcash has in place an induction program for new Directors and provides support for ongoing professional development for all Directors in order to develop and maintain the skills and knowledge needed to perform their role as Directors effectively.

The Board has a policy of enabling Directors to seek independent professional advice at the Group's expense. The Board will review in advance the estimated costs for reasonableness, but will not impede Directors from seeking advice.

THE CHAIR SHOULD BE AN INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR

The Chair, Mr Rob Murray, is considered by the Board to be an Independent Director.

THE ROLES OF CHAIR AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER SHOULD NOT BE EXERCISED BY THE SAME INDIVIDUAL

The roles of Group Chief Executive Officer and Chair are not exercised by the same individual.

THE BOARD SHOULD ESTABLISH A NOMINATION COMMITTEE

The Board has a Nomination Committee, with all members of the Board (other than the Group Chief Executive Officer) also currently being members of the Nomination Committee.

Page | 7

The membership of the Nomination Committee consists of only Non-executive Independent Directors. Details of their qualifications and attendance at meetings during the past financial year can be found in our Annual Report within the Directors' Report.

The Charter of the Committee can be found on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

PRINCIPLE 3 - ACT ETHICALLY AND RESPONSIBLY

ESTABLISH A CODE OF CONDUCT

The Company has a Code of Conduct that applies to Directors and all team members. Subjects covered by the Code include:

  • workplace behaviour and diversity;
  • health, safety and wellbeing;
  • conflicts of interest;
  • confidential information and intellectual property;
  • Metcash assets and resources;
  • anti-bribery,gifts and entertainment;

New team members are required to attend an induction program that includes behaviour guidelines and are required to complete a declaration to confirm they have read and understood their obligations set out in the Code. Team members are then required to participate in Code of Conduct compliance training on an annual basis. Additionally, the Group's performance evaluation process includes team members' performance against 'Key Behavioural Indicators' as well as Performance Targets and Key Objectives.

The Company also has a Speak Up Policy, which provides a mechanism to protect those who, on reasonable grounds, report any actual or suspected misconduct or improper state of affairs concerning Metcash including potential breaches of the Code of Conduct. This policy can be found on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

Material breaches of the Code of Conduct (including the Company's anti-bribery and corruption policies contained within it) and material incidents under the Company's Speak Up Policy are reported to the Board (via reports from the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee), as is now a recommendation in the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations.

PRINCIPLE 4 - SAFEGUARD INTEGRITY IN CORPORATE REPORTING

THE BOARD SHOULD ESTABLISH AN AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Board has an Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee (ARCC) which reports regularly to the Board.

The membership of the ARCC consists of solely Non-executive Independent Directors. The members of the ARCC as at the date of this Statement are:

  • Ms Tonianne Dwyer (Chair);
  • Mr Murray Jordan; and
  • Mr Peter Birtles.

Details of their qualifications and attendance at meetings during the past financial year can be found in our Annual Report within the Directors' Report. Mr Peter Birtles took over the role of ARCC Chair effective 1 July 2020.

The function of the ARCC is to advise on the establishment and maintenance of a framework of internal control, effective management of financial and non-financial risks, compliance with laws and regulations and appropriate ethical standards for the management of the Company. It also gives the Board additional assurance regarding the quality and reliability of financial information prepared for use by the Board in determining policies or for inclusion in the financial statements. In accordance with the ASX Principles and Recommendations, the Committee consists only of Non-executive Directors (and all of whom are Independent Directors) and is chaired by an Independent Director who is not the Chair of the Board.

The Committee has rights of access to team members and auditors (internal and external) without management present to seek additional information and explanations as required. The Committee meets regularly, in private, with the lead partner of the Company's external auditors and the head of the internal audit function.

COMMITTEE CHARTER

The Committee's Charter sets out the specific responsibilities delegated to it by the Board and details the manner in which the Committee will operate. The Charter can be found on the Company's website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

The principal terms of reference of the ARCC are the effective management of financial and non- financial risks through ensuring that systems and management processes are in place to identify and manage operational, financial and compliance risks.

ROLE OF THE EXTERNAL AUDITOR

The Group's external auditor is Ernst & Young.

A 'Charter of Audit Independence' is in place that details the circumstances under which the Group's external auditor may perform non-audit related services and the procedures to be followed to obtain approval for those services where they are permitted. The Charter also outlines the Group's policies on the:

  • hiring of former partners of the external auditor; and
  • rotation of the lead audit and review partner(s) of the external auditors.

The Charter can be found on our website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

The external auditor attends the Group's Annual General Meeting and is available to answer questions from those attending regarding the conduct of the audit (including the auditor's independence), the preparation and content of the auditor's report and the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements.

Page | 10

CEO/CFO DECLARATION

The Group Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer provided a declaration to the Board in respect of both the FY20 half year and full year financial statements that:

  • the financial records of the Company and its consolidated entities have been properly maintained; and
  • the financial statements and associated notes for the Company and its consolidated entities comply with Australian Accounting Standards and give a true and fair view of its financial position and performance as at the relevant date and for the relevant period respectively,

and that their opinion was formed on the basis of a sound system of risk management and internal control which is operating effectively, in all material respects, in relation to financial reporting risks.

PROCESS TO VERIFY THE INTEGRITY OF PERIODIC CORPORATE REPORTS

Metcash has a process in place to ensure any periodic corporate report is materially accurate and balanced in order to provide investors with appropriate information to make informed investment decisions.

The process is aligned to the Metcash Risk Management ('three lines of defence') Policy where the preparer of the periodic corporate report is responsible for ensuring it is accurate and based on reliable sources of information. The periodic corporate report is then independently reviewed by the responsible executives to ensure the information is accurate and stated assumptions or opinions are reasonable.

Finally, a 'third line' quality assurance check of the periodic corporate report is completed either by an independent third-party assurance provider or by Metcash's internal audit department. The quality assurance check involves validating that the information contained within the report agrees to a reliable source of information and that the information is consistent with any audited reports, including comparatives. In addition, any statements of opinion by Management are reviewed for reasonableness. If during the quality assurance process an error or inconsistency is identified, Management will make the required correction to the periodic report. Upon completing the quality assurance process, either the third party assurance provider or the Metcash internal audit department will provide a summary report confirming to the Board or a Committee that the quality assurance process was completed and that the information contained in the periodic corporate report is materially accurate and reasonable.

PRINCIPLE 5 - MAKE TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURE

COMPLIANCE WITH ASX LISTING RULE CONTINUOUS DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Metcash is committed to ensuring timely and balanced disclosure to keep the market informed about information that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of Metcash's securities.

The Metcash Market Disclosure Policy is designed to ensure that:

  • there is full and timely disclosure of Metcash's activities to shareholders and the market, in accordance with Metcash's legal and regulatory obligations; and
  • all stakeholders (including shareholders, the market and other interested parties) have an equal opportunity to receive and obtain externally available information issued by the Company.

The policy reflects the Group's obligation to comply with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Listing Rules of the ASX, as well as relevant corporations and securities legislation.

The Market Disclosure Policy can be found on the Company's website www.metcash.comunder the heading 'Corporate Information' in the Investor Centre.

DISCLOSURE RESPONSIBILITIES AND PROCEDURES

Metcash has established a Disclosure Committee comprised of the Group Chief Executive Officer, Group Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary (each a Disclosure Officer). The Disclosure Committee has responsibility and authority for reviewing and approving proposed disclosures and making decisions in relation to which information can or should be disclosed to the market. In performing its functions, the Disclosure Committee will endeavour to operate with as many of its members present as possible. It must act through at least two of its members (or their delegates) as are reasonably available to perform the function in the relevant circumstances. If only one Disclosure Officer (or their delegate) is available in the circumstances, the Disclosure Committee may act through any Disclosure Officer (or their delegate) and any member of the Board. Without limiting the Disclosure Committee's authority to act in accordance with the foregoing, where possible and practicable, all disclosures of market sensitive information will be provided to the Board for review before being released to the ASX. The Company Secretary has responsibility for reviewing and approving disclosures of an administrative nature and liaising with the ASX in relation to all announcement and disclosure issues. All announcements and releases to ASX concerning Metcash are provided promptly to the Board after they are released to the market (which is now a recommendation in the 4th Edition of the ASX Principles and Recommendations).

All Company team members are required to inform a Disclosure Officer of any potentially market sensitive information concerning the Group as soon as they become aware of it. Given the importance of Metcash complying with its continuous disclosure obligations team members must err on the side of caution and report potentially market sensitive information to a Disclosure Officer even if they are not sure that it would require disclosure. Team members may speak to the head of their business pillar or a Disclosure Officer if they are in doubt as to whether information is potentially market sensitive.

This process and outcomes are reviewed by the ARCC and inform Metcash's material business risks disclosure in its Annual Report, the internal audit program for the following period and matters to be addressed as part of strategic planning.

The ARCC reviews the Risk Management Policy annually (including in FY20). The Group's risk management philosophy and practices are documented more fully in the Metcash Risk Management Framework and Guidelines.

Material business risks have been outlined within the 'Operating and Financial Review' section in our Annual Report.
