Each Warrant entitles the holder to subscribe during the Exercise Period for

and be allotted one Share in the capital of Barramundi, credited as fully paid,

upon the payment of the Exercise Price by the Exercise Date. The Terms of the

Warrants are set out below.

Holders of Warrants are bound by, and are deemed

to have notice of, these Terms.

1. Issuer

1.1 The issuer of the Warrants, and any Shares

issued on exercise of Warrants, is Barramundi.

2. Grant of Warrants

2.1 Subject to clauses 2.2, 2.4 and 2.5, Barramundi

will grant one Warrant for every four Shares

held by a Shareholder of Barramundi at 5:00pm

on 21 November 2016.

2.2 If by applying the ratio referred to in clause

2.1, a Shareholder would be granted Warrants

which number less than the Minimum Holding,

the Board will at the same time grant additional

Warrants to the Shareholder so that the

aggregate number of Warrants granted to that

Shareholder is equal to the Minimum Holding.

2.3 No subscription amount is payable by a

Shareholder to receive a grant of Warrants

pursuant to clause 2.1.

2.4 If a Shareholder would receive a fraction of

a Warrant by applying the ratio referred to

in clause 2.1, the number of Warrants to be

granted to that Shareholder will be rounded up

to the nearest whole number.

2.5 Warrants will only be issued to Shareholders

with a registered address in New Zealand

who are registered Shareholders at 5:00pm

on 21 November 2016. Warrants which would

otherwise be issued to a Shareholder with a

registered address outside New Zealand will be

issued to a nominee who will endeavour to sell

those Warrants and hold the proceeds on trust

and account to those Shareholders on a pro

rata basis for the proceeds (net of costs).

3. Exercise

3.1 Each Warrant entitles the holder to subscribe

for and be allotted one Share in the capital

of Barramundi, credited as fully paid, upon

the payment of the Exercise Price by the

Exercise Date. Barramundi will announce the

Exercise Price by notice to the NZX as soon

as reasonably practicable after 29 September

2017. At that time Barramundi will also provide

confirmation of the Exercise Price to Warrant

holders by notice in writing and will send each

Warrant holder an Exercise Form. Any person

who acquires a Warrant on-market may request

an Exercise Form from Barramundi.

3.2 Each Warrant shall be exercisable by 5:00pm on

the Exercise Date. Any Warrants not exercised

by 5:00pm on the Exercise Date will lapse.

Warrant holders shall have no entitlements or

claims against Barramundi in respect of any

Warrants which have lapsed.

3.3 In order to exercise any Warrants, a Warrant

holder must send or deliver to Barramundi, care

of the Registrar:

a. a duly completed Exercise Form; and

b. payment (in a form prescribed by

Barramundi) of an amount equal to the

Exercise Price multiplied by the number of

Warrants being exercised,

so as to be received no later than 5:00pm

(New Zealand time) on the Exercise Date.

3.4 Warrant holders will not be obliged to exercise

Warrants.

3.5 Notwithstanding clause 2.5 Warrant holders

who do not have a registered address in New

Zealand and who have acquired Warrants on-

market are eligible to exercise Warrants.

4. Allotment of Shares

4.1 Subject to a Warrant holder complying with its

obligations under clause 3.3 with respect to any

Warrants, Barramundi will allot Shares to that

Warrant holder within five Business Days after

the Exercise Date.

4.2 Shares issued on the exercise of Warrants will

participate in dividends on the Shares with

a record date after the date of allotment of

the Shares and will otherwise rank pari passu

with all other Shares on issue at the date of

allotment.

4.3 Barramundi’s distribution policy is described on

Barramundi’s website (www.barramundi.co.nz)

on the “Investor Centre” tab under the heading

“Capital Management Strategies”.

3
5. No voting, dividend or distribution rights

5.1 A Warrant does not entitle the Warrant holder to:

a. vote at a meeting of Shareholders;

b. participate in any dividends on Shares declared

by the Directors; or

c. participate with Shareholders or the holders

of any other securities in the residual assets of

Barramundi upon liquidation of Barramundi.

6. Rights of Warrant holders

6.1 Each Warrant entitles the Warrant holder to:

a. all information provided by Barramundi to

Shareholders, including its annual and half

yearly reports and notices of meeting;

b. any other rights conferred on Warrant holders

by Barramundi’s constitution, the Companies

Act 1993 or the Listing Rules; and

c. attend (but not vote at) any meeting of

Shareholders (or any group of Shareholders).

7. Transfer

7.1 A Warrant shall be transferable in the same

manner, and subject to the same restrictions, as

a Share. The Directors will have the same powers

in respect of the approval of registration of a

transfer of Warrants as they have in respect of a

transfer of Shares.

8. Quotation of Warrants and Shares

8.1 Barramundi shall use its reasonable endeavours

to ensure that the Warrants and Shares remain

quoted on the Main Board while there are any

Warrants outstanding, or until the Warrants no

longer qualify for quotation, whichever is earlier.

9. Capital Reorganisation

9.1 Clause 9.2 provides for certain outcomes if

Barramundi makes a rights issue, bonus issue,

consolidation or subdivision of Shares or if

Barramundi’s capital is restructured. It will only

be relevant if one of those events were to occur

between the date of allotment of Warrants and

the Exercise Date.

9.2 The Exercise Price may be varied at any time

before the Exercise Date in the following

circumstances:

a. If Barramundi makes a rights issue of Shares

to Shareholders before the Exercise Date (a

“Rights Issue”), then the Exercise Price of

any unexercised Warrants shall (subject to

alternative adjustments in accordance with

clause 9.2(b) or (c)) be adjusted in accordance

with the following formula:

EP

new

= EP

old

— ————————

EP

new

= the new Exercise Price of the Warrants

EP

old

= the old Exercise Price of the Warrants

E = the number of Shares into which one

Warrant is exercisable

AP = the average market price per Share

(weighted by reference to volume)

during the five Business Days ending

on the day before the ex date for the

Rights Issue

S = the subscription price for a Share

under the Rights Issue

D = any dividend due but not yet paid on

the existing Shares (except dividends

to be issued under the Rights Issue)

N = the number of Shares with rights or

entitlements that must be held to

receive a right to one new Share.

The necessary adjustment shall be determined

by the Board by applying the above formula.

The Director’s determination shall, in the

absence of manifest error, be binding on

all Warrant holders and other persons. Any

adjustment so determined shall be made, and

take effect, on the Business Day following the

record date for the Rights Issue.

b. If there is a bonus issue to Shareholders, then

the Board may resolve that the number of

Shares over which an unexercised Warrant is

exercisable be increased (or additional Shares

may be reserved for issue on exercise of the

Warrants) by the number of Shares which the

Warrant holder would have received if that

Warrant had been exercised before the record

date of the bonus issue.

c. If there is a consolidation or subdivision or

similar proportionate reconstruction of the

Shares, the number of Shares over which a

Warrant is exercisable may be consolidated

or subdivided in the same ratio and the

Exercise Price amended in inverse proportion

to that ratio.

E[AP — (S+D)]

(N+1)

d. If, notwithstanding the adjustment

procedures permitted by clause 9.2(a), (b)

or (c), Barramundi’s capital is restructured

(including a rights issue, bonus issue,

convertible securities issue, warrants issue,

options issue, consolidation, subdivision,

cancellation or Share buyback) and the

Board determines, upon the advice of an

Independent Expert, that:

i. the application of the formula in clause

9.2(a), an adjustment permitted by clause

9.2(b) or the non-applicability of both

such clauses may produce a result which

is prejudicial or unduly advantageous

(based on reasonable grounds) to Warrant

holders; or

ii. an alternative adjustment that is not

envisaged in clause 9.2(a), (b) or (c) could

be applied,

then the number of unexercised Warrants

held, the number of Shares over which a

Warrant is exercisable, and the Exercise

Price, or any combination thereof, may,

to the extent necessary (subject to the

Listing Rules), be altered by the Board in

a manner determined by the Board, upon

the advice of an Independent Expert and

subject always to the Listing Rules or relief

there from, to ensure that Warrant holders

are not prejudiced (nor unduly advantaged

or disadvantaged) by the reconstruction of

capital, and in all other respects the terms of

the Warrants shall remain unchanged. Any

such adjustment shall be final and binding on

all Warrant holders.
