                                       Equivalent Payments. (The lapse of 100,027 Long Term
                                       Incentive Plan 2015 awards.) *
                                    3. The on-market sale of 67,162 ordinary shares in BHP Group
                                       Limited made in order to meet expected tax obligations arising
                                       from the transactions described in 1 and 2.

                                    * The five-year performance period for the 2015 Long Term
                                    Incentive Plan ended on 30 June 2020. Mike Henry’s 2015 Long
                                Term Incentive Plan award comprised 192,360 awards (awarded
                                prior to his appointment as CEO), subject to achievement of the
                                relative Total Shareholder Return performance conditions and a
                                holistic “look back” review of performance over the five-year
                                period by the Remuneration Committee. For the award to vest in
                                full, Total Shareholder Return must exceed a Peer Group Total
                                Shareholder Return (for 67 per cent of the award) and an Index
                                Total Shareholder Return (for 33 per cent of the award) by an
                                average of 5.5 per cent per year for five years, being 30.7 per cent
                                in total compounded over the performance period from 1 July
                                2015 to 30 June 2020. Total Shareholder Return includes returns
                                to BHP shareholders in the form of share price movements along
                                with dividends paid and reinvested in BHP (including cash and in-
                                specie dividends). BHP’s Total Shareholder Return performance
                                was positive 29.0 per cent over the five-year period from 1 July
                                2015 to 30 June 2020. This is above the weighted median Peer
                                Group Total Shareholder Return of positive 9.6 per cent and
                                below the Index Total Shareholder Return of positive 38.5 per
                                cent over the same period. This level of performance results in 48
                                per cent vesting for the 2015 Long Term Incentive Plan awards.
                                The Remuneration Committee reviewed performance holistically
                                over the five-year period, and determined that it was appropriate
                                to allow 48 per cent of the 2015 Long Term Incentive Plan awards
                                to vest.
