Chairman’s Overview
To start today’s Annual Meeting I thought I’d show you a comparison from the last two year’s Annual
Meeting.
Starting with New Zealand, on the left are the images I showed you last year. Each yellow dot shows
the location of an active vehicle fitted with EROAD across New Zealand. The picture on the right
shows the same for July 2018. The marked increase in the density of yellow dots shows the strength
and relevance of EROAD’s position within the New Zealand transport system.
We had nearly 60,000 units installed in New Zealand as at 31 March 2018, up 43% on the same time
in 2017. EROAD captures data on over 38 million kilometres per week and is a very important and
unique data set that offers significant opportunities in data and analytics.
7
North America
31 July 201631 July 201731 July 2018
More dramatic is the change in North America as we open up new markets.
In the images you can see the vehicle activity of our North American customers across the country. On
the left are the two images I showed you at last year’s Annual Meeting taken in 2016 and 2017. And
again on the right, an image from a year later.
We can see EROAD has grown both in terms of concentration in the original North‐West market and
also the dispersion across the US with 17,757 units as at March 2018, up 191% on last year. In a similar
point to the previous slide around data and analytics, these units record substantial data points on over
27 million kilometres travelled each week, and that data set is growing at a rapid rate.
While we started in Oregon with weight mile tax and fuel tax products, this is an excellent illustration of
how our customers and reach has moved from the North West and rapidly expanded across North
America with the introduction of the Electronic Logging Device “ELD”. I think you will all agree that
EROAD is now a truly cross‐US business.

North America
31 July 201731 July 2018
Zooming in closeron the North American map, you can really start to see the
effectiveness of our direct sales team that have been placed strategically in key
transport hubs across the country. Some examples you can clearly see include:
‐ Chicago
‐ Atlanta; and
‐ Dallas
We have a lot of activity and opportunities in North America and you will hear more
about that this afternoon. Especially from Norm Ellis, the President of EROAD North
America.

FY18 Performance Summary
Moving onto performance:
The last year was a record year for growth at EROAD.
We achieved record unit growth of 191% in North America, demonstrating that
EROAD has a credible presence in this market
The ANZ business achieved four consecutive quarters of record sales growth,
resulting in 42% year on year growth, and indicative of the potential for continuing
growth in this market
This growth saw EROAD, in the second half of the year, graduate from start‐up mode
to generating self‐sustaining cashflows for the first time
We secured a new credit facility from the BNZ to support future unit growth. Then
six months later BNZ increased the limit to fund higher growth. We also won the
INFINZ (Institute of Finance Professionals NZ Inc) award for best debt deal of the
year with this facility.
We launched new driver and vehicle safety tools to extend EROAD’s market‐leading
9
suite of health and safety products and services including Posted Speed on Box, and
EROAD Inspect vehicle checklist product on Android and iOS mobile devices
We also saw the launch of DVIR and EROAD Inspect on Ehubo2 in North America.
The opportunities for EROAD in both these markets remain considerable.

Highlights
EROAD Group Performance
You would have received as part of the Annual Report, EROAD’s Financial Statements
and Auditor’s Report for the year ended 31 March 2018. We also have additional
copies of the Annual Report where you have signed in for voting. Any questions on
the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report can be made at the question section
at the end of this presentation.
Turning now to some key highlights from the financial year:
As shown on this slide we achieved high growth rates in excess of 50% across the key
performance metrics of Revenue, EBITDA, Future Contracted Income & Total
Contracted Units.

Highlights
EROAD Group Performance
Looking closer at each of these key performance metrics:
Revenuegrew by 57% driven by continued strong New Zealand growth whilst North
America saw the introduction of the ELD mandate in the market resulting in unit
growth of 191%. The North American unit growth translated into more modest
growth in revenue as most of the growth occurred in the last 6 months of the year.
EBITDAgrew by 113%, twice the level of EROAD’s revenue growth.The operating
leverage we can now achieve on our cost basis means that incremental units and
revenues are largely reflected in earnings. We expect this will improve even more
with continued growth.
Flowing on from thisNet Profit After Taxsaw a small positive result of $0.2m as
against a loss of $5.3m last year, an improvement of $5.5m
Future Contracted Incomegrew by 55% to $92m, reflecting the growth in unit
numbers and a move by a significant number of customers (approximately 25%) to
contracts of four to five years vs the standard 36 month contract.
Our retention rate was maintained at approximately 98% with no major customer
11
losses in FY2018.
Over the coming year we will continue to invest in our systems and people to ensure
we deliver excellent customer service as we continue to grow and thus maintain our
market leading retention rate.
Total Contracted Unitsis one measure we use to monitor performance. EROAD
achieved strong unit growth of 61.5%, over double the growth from 2017, to 77,600
units globally –an increase of 29,559 units.
In Australia / New Zealand EROAD closed out the year with 59,843 units up 17,904
units or 42.7%. A key driver for growth in ANZ was increased penetration into key
enterprise fleets, many of which added EROAD to their light vehicles (having already
installed it in their heavy vehicles) to meet health and safety obligations. Major
growth among enterprise customers included Downer Group, Waste Management,
Fulton Hogan and food distributor Bidfood.
In North America, we experienced impressive growth while we launched our ELD
solution for customers. Total Contracted Units, at 17,757, grew by 11,655 units or
191% on last financial year. We have been pleased with the record sales growth in
North America in FY2018, however to continue to improve, EROAD appointed First
NZ Capital to assist with a strategic review of the North American business. Steven
will cover this in more detail in his presentation.
Iwill now hand you over to your CEO, Steven Newman who will cover FY18 for
Australia & New Zealandinmore detail.

Key Achievements of the ANZ market in FY18
A key driver for growth in ANZ was increased penetration into key enterprise fleets,
many of which followed up installation of EROAD in their heavy vehicles with light
vehicles to meet health and safety obligations.
An additional 7,863 units were added in ANZ in the first half of FY2018, a record that
was surpassed in the second half of the year, with a further 10,041 units added.
These 17,904 additional units in ANZ amounted to 42.7% annual growth in what is
still a growing market.
A new trend in customer contract terms had a significant impact on FY18 with
approximately 40% of new unit sales being contracted for terms, in excess of, the
standard 36 months, being either 48‐or 60‐month contracts. These longer‐term
contracts reflect customer preferences and are often linked to vehicle lease terms.
Economically longer‐term contracts are a positive outcome for the business. It does,
however, change the accounting treatment for these contracts. Under accounting
standards, if a lease is for a major part of the assets economic life, then it is to be
treated as a finance lease. This results in the revenue and costs associated with the
13
lease (e.g. cost of the hardware, installation, activation and costs of acquisition)
needing to be recognised on the commencement of the lease, rather than monthly
over the life of the lease as is normally the case. This change in contracted terms has
resulted in higher revenue in FY18 of $5.0 million.
EROAD continued to increase its share of RUC collection in New Zealand, collecting
42% of all heavy vehicle RUC, up from 38% in 2017 and 81% of all electronic RUC
(eRUC). In June 2017, a major milestone was reached, with eRUCpayments in New
Zealand overtaking paper RUC payments for the first time. At the end of June 2018,
EROAD had collected $2.06 billion in RUC since it began offering its services to
customers.
We have a strong pipeline from both heavy and light fleets to support another year
of strong growth in FY19.

New Product Release
In FY18, EROAD launched a number of new products
and features in NZ
EROAD Inspect Defect BoardPosted Speed
During FY18 we launched a number of new products and features in our New
Zealand market.
Our Safe driver product, including Posted Speed on Box, Driver Login
Monitorandour Fleet Utilisation Dashboardhas proven very popular with almost
15,000 units adopƟng the plan since its introducƟon in 2017.
Vehicle Inspect ‐We added Defect Management to vehicle inspections, so you can
find everything that's failed in seconds, not hours.
We’re giving drivers more informaƟon so they can:
•See existing defects when inspecting a vehicle; and
•Provide real‐time status of previously reported defects
We have designed Inspect and Depot to work hand in hand so that :
•Our customers can capture defects with configurable templates; and
•They can take immediate action because Depot provides a real‐time display on
the Defect Board.
Inspect is available on iOS and Android .
14
The launch provided automatic upgrades for major enterprise customers and
incremental revenue for other customers.
I will now show you a short video illustrating how our SafeDriverproduct can have a
significant impact on safety for our customers. Norm Ellis will then continue the
presentation going into the North American FY18 result and market dynamics in
more detail.

President of EROAD Nth America
Greetings. My name is Norman Ellis and I am the President of North America for
EROAD Inc. I am excited to be here today to meet you, our shareholders and I can
tell you that I am also excited by the opportunity ahead of EROAD in America.
Now by way of introduction, I started my career in the trucking industry after
university. For nearly 20 years I worked in operations and sales for some of the
leading medium and large US motor carriers. I transitioned to the telematic industry
over 20 years ago and had the distinct pleasure to work for Qualcomm Inc for over
16 years in the Omnitracs division. During my tenure, Omnitracs had exceptional
growth, led by innovation, a strong customer focus and incredible quality and they
evolved into a leader in the sector.
When I interviewed with EROAD I recognized some of the very traits that led
Omnitracs to their success and rapid growth.It has been a pleasure to work for
EROAD over the last 19 months and I am excited to share a high‐level review of our
North American business opportunities with you.

Growth in units
As you can see it has been a big year for EROAD in North America. In terms of our key
achievements in our largest addressable market:
Growth in units & 2 Record Sales Quarters
The ELD mandate significantly changed the landscape for EROAD in North America,
helping EROAD deliver record sales results. The North American business grew Total
Contracted Units by 191%, adding 11,655 new units during FY18.
We are consistently commended on the quality of our product. We were very
pleased when we submitted our ELD for review to an independent ratings website,
ELDRatings.com, to have it rated third in the market. We are expecting to climb
further in these ratings also as, at the time the device was reviewed, we had not
launched our driver vehicle inspection report solution (DVIR). This has subsequently
been released and is proving very popular. It is also worth highlighting that EROAD’s
ELD is also the only device in the top‐5 on their website that has a 5‐star customer
rating.
EROAD ELD Verified
EROAD is proud to have its ELD independently verified by PIT Group. PIT Group
conducted rigorous bench and operational tests of EROAD’s ELD against FMCSA’s
17
established certification and test procedures, and mimicked the approach regulators
would take with an ELD provider during a roadside investigation or compliance audit.
Following the December 2017 compliance date, a number of our large competitors
were encountering, and in some cases still are encountering, significant issues which
resulted in their ELDs not being compliant with FMSCA requirements. This has
caused reputational damage to these providers and validated EROAD’s choice to
seek independent verification before the mandate become effective.
Now, I would like to share with you some very recent additions over the last couple of
months to our North American leadership team.

Now to update on market dynamics.
The ELD mandate significantly changed the landscape for EROAD in North America,
delivering record sales results. As motor carriers prepared their fleets for the
December 2017 compliance deadline, EROAD unit sales grew 59.6% in the first half
of FY 2018, and 84.4% in the second half of the financial year when the mandate
came into force. Amazingly a recent market survey showed that 30% of vehicles are
still yet to be compliant.
During an initial soft enforcement period in Q1 of calendar year 2018, as motor
carriers incorporated the technology into their operations, EROAD continued to
attract new customers due to the quality of its solution. The company’s investment
in R&D, its decision to develop a tethered device and to have it independently
verified by PIT Group have helped differentiate it in the market.
EROAD followed the launch of its ELD in FY 2018 with a driver vehicle inspection
report solution (DVIR), EROAD Inspect, available on the same Ehubo2 in‐vehicle
device as its ELD and tax solution. Customer uptake of Inspect has been significant,
with close to 200,000 vehicle inspections completed in the first three months.
In North America our focus for FY19 is on capitalisingon the ELD opportunity in our
19
target markets.
At present, we are seeing some key trends in the market for sales:
There’s some residual procrastination from potential customers, the 30%, I
mentioned previously. These are customers who see the ELD mandate as a Federal
imposition on their business. They view ELD compliance as a cost to their business
rather an opportunity. Consequently, they are late adopters.
We are seeing a buyer’s remorse response where fleets are assessing the
performance of their ELD solution and looking to change. Having made the
assessment to change they need to address exiting current contracts and they don’t
want to leap from the frying pan to the fire, so they are trialling or piloting units
before swapping providers.
We are seeing some ELD providers leave the market and we expect further
rationalisation as providers who self‐certified are challenged to deliver the needs
once compliance is being checked by regulatory agents
We will see adoption by inter state customers who were grandfathered by having
legacy automatic onboard recording devices (AOBRD). These devices preceded the
ELD and operators who have them installed are exempt from having to install an ELD
until December 2019. We expect these operators to move into the ELD market in
the second half of FY18 (approximately 1.3 million vehicles).
We will see adoption by mixed fleet providers and intra state vehicles who move to
new state based mandates (approximately 4 million vehicles).
There is likely to be a move in Canada and Mexico to adopt ELD solutions in the
future.
Beyond this year, we expect a fluid and growing market in North America for at least
the next 3 years. We also believe the ELD is a catalyst for an industry wide
revolution in the adoption of technology which will see many further opportunities
for EROAD.

Lastly, I just wanted to leave you with an anecdote of the reputation that your
company is creating in the US market and also the quality of EROAD’s offering.
By way of background, EROAD has been recognized by several state enforcement
agents across the US for having the most accurate and easy to use ELD products in
the market. EROAD’s reputation with trucking associations and regulators has helped
to strengthen our position in an evolving ELD market. The EROAD ELD is one of four
devices that Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) provides to the US
Department of Transportation’s National Training Centerfor training of inspectors
and investigators.
Recently SoonaLee, EROAD’s Director of Regulatory Compliance hosted a joint
webinar with the FMCSA’s Head of Compliance, which was our highest ever attended
webinar and received coverage in a number of key industry publications. This helps
Illustrate the benefit of EROAD’s whole of market approach with high levels of
engagement with regulators, trucking association, carriers and enforcement.
It is unique for such a senior member of the FMCSA to appear alongside an ELD
provider and is a strong endorsement not only for our respected thought
leadership but also the quality of our product.

North America Strategic Review
North American Strategic Review
EROAD announced its strategic review in November 2017 in conjunction with its
1H18 results.
Whilst sales in North America picked up materially in FY18, and are tracking our
historical experience in the New Zealand market, we see an opportunity to sell more
with a wider distribution channel. This is particularly attractive as we currently win 9
out of 10 competitive pilots.
We have spent considerable time with parties who operate in the telematics space,
who are either direct competitors of EROAD or who operate in a space adjacent to
EROAD, where significant benefit would arise through a partnership. In retrospect,
we learnt that the timing of the review and the discussions with other telematics
providers was not ideal due to the regulatory and industry disruption. We would
have been better to perform the review 6 months earlier or later, as they may have
partnered earlier or later but are currently preoccupied with making their own
solution a success.
We did however hear considerable positive feedback on the quality of our product
offering, which further focused us on improving distribution. What we have
22
determined is that working with adjacent businesses offers the most opportunity to
accelerate our growth strategy. We have worked through our opƟons and are
working with substantial opportunities that we believe will benefit not just the
North American business but also potentially the wider business. We will update
investors as these opportunities progress.

During FY18, EROAD achieved several milestones for corporate and productivity.
We completed the outsourcing of our manufacturing during the year. We moved the
manufacture of our Ehubounits to a world class contract manufacturer in the Philippines.
We were able to do this with the growth in units and it will result in lower cost of production
per unit, more flexible and shorter manufacturing cycles and, in the longer term, improved
working capital. The design and IP for the units remains with EROAD.
We also continued to enhance our product development, with over 500 improvements
launched. And as mentioned earlier, we had major product releases that included new
driver and vehicle safety tools and services including Posted Speed on Box and EROAD

To support further growth and our strategy we secured a new credit facility from BNZ to
fund in‐vehicle hardware. We also raised $21.5m of new capital, $15.5m through an equity
placement to existing and new institutional shareholders and $6m through a Share Purchase
Plan for existing retail shareholders. The proceeds from the equity raise are primarily being
used on new business opportunities and to assist with changes in processes and systems to
improve customer experience and efficiencies. 76% of shareholders participated in this
Share Purchase Plan. We would like to thank all those shareholders for the confidence and
level of support that this shows.

The funding provided from the BNZ in our debt facility was recognised in the INFINZ awards
when we won the debt deal of the year for the innovative and flexible nature of the funding
package.

Areas of Strategic Growth
Commercialising data analytics
•Develop data insight capabilities
•Build out SaaS features & integrations
•Partner to meet market needs
During the North American strategic review, we were connected to a vast number of
industry players and customers. These discussions were also very helpful in
confirming our strategic plan.
It is no longer enough for us to focus on our core businesses of mileage based tolling
and telematics. We must also develop new business models that leverage our
growing data asset and embrace connecting with different technologies. We must
actively seek to grow our position in the ecosystemand increase the volumes of data
whilst growing our ability to turn that data into new value insights.
All countries are facingsimilar problems in transport. This creates opportunities for
us to help our customers succeed. Some problems are shorter in term, but have
large benefit. These problems include:
How to manage health and safety on roads?
How to make sure vehicles are fit for use?
How to manage driver fatigue?
How to manage accountability for health and safety outcomes? (Chain of
responsibility)
26
How to pay for and maintain roading infrastructure with decreasing fuel tax, fines,
licensing, registration and parking revenues?
How to manage increasing congestion?
Here are some highlights of the areas we intend to pursue:
Connected DevicesWe currently sell Ehuboswhich provides highly accurate tracking
for heavy vehicles. In addition to our core product, we are now focussed on
providing more value to our customers through a broader selection of connected
devices for more types of assets creating more data. You will see examples of this
today with our asset trackers.
We have chosen high quality devices to match needs and will use a combination of
our own and others’ devices. To achieve this we don’t need a lot of funding, rather
we need to focus on partnerships with other hardware providers.
Predictive InsightsWe currently use the data we collect in reports that give
information. We will shift focus to provide insights and predictions that prompt
action in the context of our customers business. This will increase the value
delivered to current customers and open new and different customers. There are
many opportunities we are pursuing.
GeographiesWe currently enter markets based on regulatory opportunities as this is
part of what sets us apart from competitors. When geographies are established,
they become opportunities to offer network based insights solutions. Regulatory
changes will increase as countries attempt to deal with their complex transportation
problems, and accordingly provide the entry point for EROAD to enter new markets.
The following slides highlight some of the progress we have made in these areas and
some of the possibilities that may exist with the wealth of data that we are
collecting.

Hamilton. A good example of expanding into a wider range of connected devices is
our recent launch of our new asset tracking product.
Asset Tracker
We have a targeted launch for later this month for customers interested in
equipment producƟvity . These are our customers who previously did not subscribe
to our ElocateTrack Plan, as either theElocatewas too large or expensive for the
type of assets they wished to track.
Examples of these customer are:
•Civil construcƟon
•Council contractors
•Forestry (with cellular connection)
The benefits of these products, other than tracking location are:
•Equipment productivity: hours on site, hours in use, idle, input utilization

EROAD improving safety
EROAD’s contribution to reduced speeding
The data we collect also provides a strong illustration of how EROAD is positively
contributing to safer roads in New Zealand. Over the past three years, EROAD has
launched a number of new products and features that have helped contribute to a
marked reduction in speeding events.
•In May 2015 EROAD implemented the overspeed dashboard and drive buddy.
•In August 2015 we implemented our Driver Leaderboard.
•In late 2016, Driver Login on Ehubo2 was launched.
•In August 2017 we implemented Posted Speed on box.
Interestingly you can see that speeding trends are cyclical with higher levels of
speeding on NZ roads in the lead‐up to Christmas. But you can see a clear trend that
our product launches are positively contributing to safety on NZ roads with an
approximate reduction in speeding events of around 30% on average over a three
year period. Further illustrating this benefit of the EROAD safety suite, is the statistic
on the right hand side which shows that organisations that are actively engaged with
EROAD’s driver behaviour analytics have 38% few speeding events than
organisations that do not view them at all.

Analytics
Safer cornering
Corner Profiling
The problem:
Being able to navigate the topology of the country safely and efficiently is paramount
to having a safe free‐flowing road network. Understanding how drivers navigate this
network is essential to identifying risk and prioritising expenditure.
Obtaining this real world driver behaviour is often costly, and the case of curve
profiling requires installation of inductive loops, strip counters, or manual surveys
etc. This will give the authority a good understanding of a single corner, but scaling
this out to the entire network is cost prohibitive. Prioritisation for this data
collection often uses crash data as an input, which is a 'bottom‐of‐the‐cliff' approach
in that much of the early warning signs of increased risk aren't discovered
EROAD's contribution
EROAD's system captures cornering events and our data science team builds up a
profile for every corner in the network. From this data we can quickly identify curves
that are at risk for particular vehicle types, which could be used by the transport
authority to prioritise their spending. The data can also be used to inform customers
29
of particular areas where their drivers are putting their safety at risk when
benchmarked against the rest of the driving population.
Additionally we can help in the Transport Authority run experiments by providing
before‐and‐after behaviour analysis. Rather than alter the geometry of the curve
which is costly, the authority could deploy advisory speeds or signage, or physical
cues such as rumble strips to reduce the risk on a single corner at much lower costs.
EROAD can also help monitor the entire network and alert when behaviour changes,
or when the composition of traffic changes around the corner.
* EROAD can monitor curve profiles network‐wide remove the need for costly data
collection tools.
* EROAD can work with transport authorities to identify current and potential risks
on the network.
* EROAD can help with monitoring in the lead up to re‐engineering the road.

Analytics
Improvingroadnetwork
•Which destination routes are
preferred for a particular origin?
•How do routes change as
congestion increases?
•What is the activity across a piece
of infrastructure?
•How do we predict congestion on
the roads or at locations using past
behaviour?
EROAD is continuing to build out our data and analytics capabilities. We believe we
have a unique and powerful dataset that has value to not only our customers, but
also to improve the road network, reduce the road toll and improve environmental
sustainability.
A large proportion of drivers are creatures of habit, using the road network to
achieve a repeatable goal of commuting or deliveries. One of the advantages of
centralising this data is EROAD can build up detailed profiles of vehicle routes over
time, and use those to start predicting activity on the network and using this
information to optimize routes for our customers.
EROAD can also help transport planners understand the most used freight routes,
the real routes chosen by drivers, not just the routes planned and prioritised with
funding.
EROAD is passionate about solving complex transportation problems like these.

The growth in units this year has put the company on a stronger financial footing,
and the experiences gained from a rapid scale‐up in sales and customer support
means EROAD is in a good position for the year ahead.
The global trend towards electronic road user charging as an alternative to fuel taxes
is accelerating due to the commercialisation of electric trucks and vans, which will
rapidly and severely impact fuel tax‐based road funding. In addition, a parallel trend
of addressing driver fatigue and improving road safety is promoting the growth of
regulatory telematics. The mandated use of electronic logging devices in North
America and increased emphasis on chain of responsibility in Australia is part of a
global move to better manage fatigue in the transport industry. EROAD is well
positioned to strongly participate in these opportunities.
While EROAD is the world leader in weight mile tax collection technology, it is
also now a strong player in telematics. Moving from data capture to insight.

Opportunities by Market
New Zealand
Continued strong growth driven by:
•Continued focus on health and safety
•Strong expansion in light vehicle fleets
•Customers upgrading from Gen 1 to Gen 2 in vehicle
hardware
Australia
•Growth in trans-Tasman fleet adoption
•Regulatory requirements such as chain of responsibility,
driving adoption in Australia
•Market launch underway
USA
•ELD, WMT and IFTA have opened large new opportunities
•Leadership team now installed and established with US locals
•Change in mindset from ELD compliance to value-added
solutions
•WMT pilot programs e.g.I-95
The company expects continued solid growth in its New Zealand business, with
further adoption of telematics by light commercial fleets to meet health and safety
requirements, and customers continuing to upgrade from Ehubo1 (our first‐
generation in‐vehicle hardware device) to Ehubo2. As previously mentioned, we see
promising signs in Australia that more significant opportunities are on the way,
particularly with changes to chain of responsibility laws due to be introduced in
FY19.
We also expect to see an expanded portfolio of offerings to new and existing
customers with new device offerings such as cameras, asset trackers and new
business opportunities with data analytic services and products.
As you’ve heard from Norm, EROAD’s North American sales growth opportunities
remain exciting. However we need to improve our distribution to truly leverage the
investment and great product we have developed for the market.
The ELD market will continue to deliver sales growth. This is both from carriers using
AOBRDs, who have until December 2019 to transition to ELDs, and those looking to
overcome challenges they have encountered with faulty connections and poor
customer service from other telematics providers. ELD is further refining its sales
32
distribution and customer success processes to enable it to support larger customers
seeking a compliant ELD solution. We have also strengthened our North American
leadership team to support future growth. Canada is expected to introduce an ELD
mandate similar to the US this year and we’re watching closely as this market
develops.

I-95 CORRIDOR
Opportunity
I95 Corridor Pilot
U.S. state and federal governments face significant challenges as they look to fund
their infrastructure maintenance and improvement needs, including roads and
highways. It is estimated that, if no actions are taken, the federal highway trust fund
is at risk of drying up by 2020.
The funding issue continues to receive attention at both a state and federal level. A
number of states are looking at or are conducting road user charging pilot programs,
similar to the Californian pilot.
The majority of the exploration has occurred in western states and has focused on
passenger vehicles. TheI‐95Corridor Coalition recognized that it is vital to bring the
perspective of both the east coast as well as the trucking industry to the national
evaluation of Mileage Based User Fees (MBUF).
TheI‐95corridor is running from Maine to Florida and is a critical freight corridor in
the U.S. which serves as the heartbeat of the country’s economy. The close proximity
of state boundaries, the large amount of freight movement that happens on a daily
basis, and the number of different toll facilities in the corridor states represent
reporting challenges for the trucking industry. The impact of those challenges within
34
an MBUF system will be studied during the pilot.
EROAD has been selected as the technology provider for this important project, one
of the reasons being our knowledge and understanding of those challenges the
freight industry faces and to help study if there are potential synergies in the data
collected for the various regulations and agreements.
This is likely to be a multi‐year research and technology demonstration program of
work.
RUC is a controversial topic in the US, in particular HV RUC, however we believe that
the approach taken by theI‐95Corridor Coalition is an important one, that brings all
stakeholder to the table, to hear the concerns of the industry and help finding a win‐
win solution for a crumbling infrastructure.

•We believe the time is right for a measured proactive broader
entry into Australia that coincides with the change in legislative
environment.
•To achieve this there will be some market specific product
functionality that needs to be developed and additional
investment in marketing, sales and account management would
be required.
•This investment can be reduced significantly (verses a stand-
alone start up) by leveraging off the capabilities and resources in
the New Zealand business.
Market Launch
AUSTRALIA
Australian Market launch
EROAD will enter new geographies where regulatory opportunities exist as this is
part of what sets us apart from competitors. We believe regulatory changes coming
in Australia mean it is the right time to enter the market.
Today EROAD has a small number of Australian fleets, most of which are associated
with large New Zealand based customers. We believe the Ɵme is right for a
measured proactive broader entry into Australia which coincides with the change in
legislaƟve environment.
The move towards road charging reform is gathering momentum: the federal
government announced in December a heavy vehicle charging pilot in response to
the potential rapid adoption of electric vehicles in the freight sector. EROAD is well‐
positioned to support and participate in this trial, drawing on its experience with
road charging pilot programmes in Oregon and California.
To achieve this, there will be some market specific product functionality that needs
to be developed and additional investment in marketing, sales and account
management would be required. This investment can be reduced significantly
(verses a stand‐alone start up) by leveraging off the capabilities and resources in the
35
New Zealand business and products previously developed for the US and NZ
markets.

The fourth resolution is thatthe non‐executive director remuneration pool is extended from
$350,000 to $500,000 a year, with this money divided among the directors as they consider
appropriate.
In the Notice of Meeting provided to shareholders on 4 July, explanation for the proposed increase
in the total pool of fees available to remunerate non‐executive directors’ was provided. The Notice
of Meeting also attached a review of the directors’ fees carried out by Strategic Pay.
In summary, the total amount of fees available for remuneration of non‐executive directors was last
approved by shareholders at the 2016 Annual Meeting. At that meeting, the total amount of fees
available for remuneration was increased from $300,000 to $350,000.
The Board has determined that the proposed increase to the non‐executive director remuneration
poolis necessary. It is to provide sufficient funds to increase the number of non‐executive directors
on the Board. The increase is also necessary to attract new candidates, including overseas based
directors. It also reflects the fee expectations of candidates in light of the increased level of
governance responsibilities held by directors.
The ability to increase the number of non‐executive directors on the Board and to attract new
candidates, including from overseas, is very important to ensure we have the right expertise on the
Board to grow EROAD.
Since the last increase in the non‐executive directors’ remuneration pool, EROAD has grown
significantly, particularly in the United States.
Since 2016, EROAD’s revenue has grown by 97% globally. Our total number of
connected units has grown by 110% globally and by 295% in the US.
The business has become larger and more complex and we expect continued high
levels of growth. As EROAD continues to grow in size and complexity, the Directors
may need to take on responsibilities on additional sub‐committees and be
compensated for the additional work that this involves.
We also continually evaluate the composition of the Board and, given the increased
focus of EROAD in North America and our re‐entry into Australia, we may wish to
recruit additional directors in those jurisdictions where they are paid a differential
rate to reflect the market rate for directorships in those particular markets.
Based on the fee levels introduced on 1 January 2018, following Strategic Pay’s
recommendations, the current total annual non‐executive directors’ remuneration is
$348,000 out of a total pool of $350,000. Given the limited headroom here, it is
proposed to increase the total remuneration pool available to non‐executive
directors to $500,000.
NZX Main Board Listing Rule 3.5.1 requires the proposed increase in directors’
remuneration be authorisedby an ordinary resolution of shareholders. In
accordance with NZX Main Board Listing Rule 9.3.1, no non‐executive director or any
of their Associated Persons (as defined under the NZX Listing Rules) can vote in
favourof this resolution, unless casting votes under an express proxy of a person
who is not disqualified from voting.
Is there any shareholder discussion on this resoluƟon?
