Shareholders and proxies can either submit a full vote or a partial vote on each resolution by moving between the ‘Full Vote’ and ‘Partial Vote’
tabs at the top of the voting card. To submit a full vote, a shareholder may click on the ‘For’, ‘Against’ or ‘Abstain’ voting buttons under the ‘Full

tab. The total number of the votes that a shareholder is entitled to vote will be displayed under each resolution. When the shareholder enters
the number of votes in a certain box, it will automatically calculate the total number of votes left.

Zealand time at the Grand Millennium Hotel, 71 Mayoral Drive, Auckland, New Zealand. Shareholders are also able to attend and
vote at the Annual Meeting online via the Link Market Services Virtual Annual Meeting platform. More information regarding virtual
attendance of the Annual Meeting and voting at the Virtual Annual Meeting is available in the Virtual Annual Meeting Online Portal
Guide which will be filed on the ASX and NZX market announcement platforms and available on the Company’s website at
https://thea2milkcompany.com/newsroom/market-announcements/.

If you propose NOT to attend the Annual Meeting, whether in person or virtually via the online platform, but wish to vote by postal vote
or appoint a proxy please complete and return this form (please keep it intact) to Link Market services no later than 11:30am New
Zealand time (9:30am Australian Eastern Daylight Time) on Sunday, 19 November 2017 (being 48 hours before the commencement
of the Annual Meeting). Proxy appointment or Postal Voting can also be completed online. Please read the instructions overleaf before
completing this form. Please do not appoint a proxy if you are voting by Postal Vote.



POSTAL VOTE

As a shareholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, you
are entitled to vote by postal vote. You can cast your postal
vote online or by one of the other methods listed above. If you
return your postal vote without indicating how you wish to
vote, or your indication on how to vote is unclear, on any
resolution, you will be deemed to have abstained from voting
on that resolution. If you complete the postal vote section and
also appoint a proxy then your postal vote will be cast and
your proxy appointment will not be counted. If this form is
returned duly signed by a shareholder with voting instructions
completed but without indicating that it is a postal vote or
proxy has been appointed, it will be deemed to be a postal
vote.

APPOINTMENT OF PROXY

A shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint
a proxy to attend and vote instead of him/her. A proxy need
not be a shareholder of a2MC. Any corporation that is a
shareholder of a2MC may appoint a person as its
representative to attend the meeting and vote on its behalf, in
the same manner as that in which it could appoint a proxy.

Appointing the Chairman of the Meeting as your proxy
If you wish, you may appoint the Chairman of the Meeting as
your proxy. To do so, please write “Chairman of the Meeting”
in the box marked “full name of Proxy”. The Chairman will vote
according to your instructions. If the Chairman is not instructed
how to vote, then he will vote any undirected/discretionary
proxy in favour of each resolution. If you return this form without
directing the proxy how to vote on any particular resolution any
proxy who is not the Chairman of the Meeting will exercise the
proxy’s discretion as to whether to vote and, if so how.

The voting card remains editable until the voting
is closed at the conclusion of the Annual General
Meeting. Once voting has been closed all voting cards,
submitted and un-submitted, will automatically be
submitted and cannot be changed.
At the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting a red
bar with a countdown timer will appear at the top of
the Webcast and Slide windows advising the remaining
voting time available to shareholders. Please make any
changes required to your voting cards at this point and
submit your voting cards.
If an additional resolution is proposed during the
meeting, there will be a short delay while the resolution
is added to the voting card. Once the resolution has
been added you will be notified by the Chairman during
the meeting. In order to vote on the extra resolution
you will need to reopen your voting card to cast your
vote by clicking the ‘Edit Card’ button.
Note: Registration for the Annual General Meeting and voting opens
one hour before the meeting begins.

2. How to ask a question
Note: Only shareholders are eligible to ask questions.
You will only be able to ask a question after
you have registered to vote. If you would
like to ask a question, click on the ‘Ask a
Question’ box either at the top or bottom
of the webpage.
The ‘Ask a Question’ box will then pop up with two
sections for completion.
In the ‘Regarding’ section click on the drop down
arrow and select one of the following categories:
• General Business
• Resolution 1
• Resolution 2
• Resolution 3
• Resolution 4
• Resolution 5
• Resolution 6
After you have selected your question category, click in
the ‘Question’ section and type your question.
When you are ready to submit your question - click
the blue ‘Submit Question’ button. This will send the
question to the Management/Board.
Note that not all questions are guaranteed to be
answered during the Annual General Meeting, but we
will do our best to address your concerns.
Once you have asked a question a ‘View Questions’
box will appear.
At any point you can click on ‘View Questions’ and
see all the questions you have submitted. Only you can
see the questions you have asked.
Note: You can submit your questions by this method
one hour before the meeting begins, if you have
registered to vote. You can continue to submit
questions up until the close of voting.
If your question has been answered and you would
like to exercise your right of reply, you can do so by
submitting another question.
