Explanatory Notes
NOTE 1
Resolution 3 proposes an increase in the pool of directors’ fees from $410,000 p.a. to $585,000 p.a. The pool
of $410,000 p.a. was approved five years ago, at the Company’s 2012 annual meeting. This was calculated on
the basis of five non-executive directors. Fees paid in 2016 were $383,000.
The proposed pool of $585,000 p.a. is calculated on the basis of six non-executive directors (as opposed to
five as previously) and also includes an adjustment to bring the pool into line with the market and to reflect
the increased level of governance responsibilities held by directors across the Company’s operations in
New Zealand and Australia.
The Company obtained independent market data from the Institute of Directors on fees paid to directors of
an equivalent size and complexity to the Company, before the proposed pool was set. This report is available
to view on our website www.hallensteinglasson.co.nz.
The final allocation of the pool of directors’ fees is a matter for the board. However, the current expectation is
that the pool will be allocated as follows:
• New Zealand based non-executive directors (x3) – $80,000 p.a.
• Australia based non-executive directors (x2) – $90,000 p.a.
• Chairman – $135,000 p.a.
• Chair, Audit Committee – $10,000 p.a.
• Deputy Chair, Audit Committee – $5,000 p.a.
• Chair, Remuneration Committee – $5,000 p.a.
• Chair, Nominations Committee – $5,000 p.a.
• Chair, Health & Safety Committee – $5,000 p.a.
In accordance with NZX Listing Rule 9.3.1, no non-executive director or their Associated Persons (as defined
under the NZX Listing Rules) can vote on this resolution, unless casting votes under an express proxy of a
person who is not disqualified from voting.
