Explanatory notes
The Board of the Manager
maintains a majority of
Independent Directors.
Unitholders are entitled
to  nominate and vote
on the  appointment of
Independent Directors.
GMT’s trust deed requires that
at least one third of the Independent
Directors (or, if there is not a multiple
of three Independent Directors,
the number nearest to one third)
must retire by rotation at the
Annual Meeting of Unitholders
each year, but shall be eligible
for re-appointment at that meeting.
Those required to retire are those
who have been longest in office
since they were last appointed.
Nominations for appointments
to the Board were called for
on 11 May 2018 and closed on
25 May 2018. No nominations were
received, meaning Leonie Freeman
stands unopposed.
Resolution 1:
Re-appointment of Leonie Freeman
Leonie Freeman retires by rotation at the meeting
and  offers herself for re-appointment.
Leonie is an entrepreneur, business
futurist and housing strategist
who has broad experience across
a range of property disciplines
having held senior development,
property management, strategic and
education roles. Her 30 year career
has also included the establishment
of RealENZ.co.nz in 1996 (later
renamed realestate.co.nz), a
successful property consultancy
business as well as the purchase,
transformation and sale of a large
property management business in
2007. She spent eight years holding
senior and advisory positions with
local and central government –
either in strategic property advice
or troubleshooting public sector
development projects.
In October 2016 she launched a
philanthropic and independent
initiative with the sole purpose of
solving Auckland’s housing crisis –
called thehomepage.nz. In addition
Leonie is a professional speaker
focusing on igniting innovation in
organisations as well as business
transformation.
She has been a regular and
sought after print, radio and TV
commentator. Leonie is a Life
Member of the Property Institute,
was awarded the Supreme Property
Award for 2017 and was a finalist
in the recent Westpac Women of
Influence Awards. She recently
received the Judges Choice
Leadership Award at the 2017
Property Council Awards.
She achieved first class honours in
her Master of Commerce degree
and has previously held board
positions with the New Zealand
