2. ESCROW
2.1 The Shareholders (in their capacity as trustees of the Gondolin Trust) and the Beneficiary (in
his capacity as sole beneficiary of the Gondolin Trust) unconditionally and irrevocably
undertake to the Non-Interested Directors, the Company and the Special Division that,
subject to clause 3, they will not:
(a) sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of, or offer or agree to sell, transfer
assign or otherwise dispose of, its right and title to, and beneficial interest in, the
Shares in the Restricted Period; or
(b) do, or omit to do, any act if the act or omission would have the effect of transferring
effective ownership or control of the Shares in the Restricted Period,
without first giving not less than five Business Days' written notice to, and obtaining the prior
written approval (at their respective discretions but subject to clause 3) of each of the Non-
Interested Directors, the Company and the Special Division.
2.2 The right of the Shareholders (in their capacity as trustees of the Gondolin Trust) and the
Beneficiary (in his capacity as sole beneficiary of the Gondolin Trust) to deal with the Shares
is also subject to any other restrictions which may be applicable, including under the NZX
Main Board/Debt Market Listing Rules and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.
3. EXCEPTIONS
3.1 Transfer to Affiliates: Notwithstanding the restrictions set out in clause 2.1 of this deed, the
Shareholders (in their capacity as trustees of the Gondolin Trust) and the Beneficiary (in his
capacity as sole beneficiary of the Gondolin Trust) may transfer all or part of the Shares to
their Affiliates or an Affiliate of the Gondolin Trust, provided that the relevant Affiliate enters
into a restricted security deed with the Company in relation to the Shares transferred on the
same terms as this deed for the remainder of the Restricted Period.
3.2 Offer under Takeovers Code and Scheme of Arrangements: Clause 2.1 of this deed will
not apply in relation to any full or partial takeover offer made under the Takeovers Code or
similar scheme or arrangement, provided that any such takeover offer or similar scheme or
arrangement is not made, whether directly or indirectly, by the Shareholders, the Beneficiary
or any their Affiliates or an Affiliate of the Gondolin Trust. For clarity, if a full or partial
3647537 v4 3
takeover offer is made or proposed to be made during the Restricted Period, directly or
indirectly by a person who is not either Shareholder or their Affiliate or an Affiliate of the
Gondolin Trust, then the Shareholders or the Beneficiary may sell, or agree, or offer to sell
all or any part of the Shares to the offeror under that offer.
3.3 Security Interest Permitted: Notwithstanding clause 2.1 of this deed, the Shareholders or
the Beneficiary may create, or agree to create, a mortgage, charge or other form of security
interest over or in respect of all or part of its Shares in favour of a bona fide lender to the
Shareholders (in their capacity as trustee of the Gondolin Trust) or the Beneficiary, provided
that the lender enters into a restricted security deed with the Company in relation to the
relevant Shares on the same terms as this deed, to take effect from the enforcement of the
security interest, for the remainder of the Restricted Period.
3.4 Trustee liability for the Gondolin Trust:
(a) The Shareholders enter into this deed only in their capacity as trustees of the
Gondolin Trust and in no other capacity.
(b) A liability arising under or in connection with this deed is limited to, and can be
enforced against the Shareholders only to the extent to which it can be satisfied out
of, the assets of the Gondolin Trust. Those assets shall not include any capital or
income of the Gondolin Trust which has been transferred or paid to, or appointed
or applied for the benefit of, any person in accordance with the terms of the trust
deed constituting the Gondolin Trust. The limitation of the Shareholders' liability in
this clause 3.4 applies despite any other provision of this deed, and extends to all
liabilities and obligations of the Shareholders arising under this deed.
(c) No person may bring any action or proceeding against the Shareholders in any
capacity other than as trustee of the Gondolin Trust.
(d) This clause 3.4 is not intended to limit any rights which the Shareholders have to
be indemnified out of the assets of the Gondolin Trust.
4. GENERAL
4.1 Specific Performance: The Shareholders and the Beneficiary acknowledge that damages
alone would be an inadequate remedy for breach of its obligations under this deed and the
appropriate remedies for such a breach will include orders for specific performance,
injunctive relief, any other equitable relief and/or damages.
4.2 Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017: The provisions of this deed are for the benefit of,
and are intended to be enforceable by, any of the Non-Interested Directors, the other
shareholders of the Company and the Special Division under Part 2, Subpart 1 of the
Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017.
4.3 Severability: If a court or administrative body decides that part of this deed is illegal, void or
cannot be enforced, that decision will not make the rest of this deed invalid.
4.4 No effect: This deed will be void and of no effect if the Company's shares are no longer
listed on the NZX Main Board.
3647537 v4 4
4.5 Amendment or Termination: Any variation to, or termination of, this deed requires the
written agreement of all parties to this deed and the Company shall not agree to any
amendment or termination without prior written approval of the Special Division. The
Company will provide the Special Division with notice immediately in the event that it
becomes aware of a breach or a likely breach of this deed.
4.6 Governing Law: This deed is governed by, and construed in accordance with, New Zealand
law and the parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the New Zealand courts.
4.7 Notices: All notices and other communications required hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given:

(b) in the case of post, two days after posting if sent by post within New Zealand or ten

(c) in the case of email, on the date and time at which it is sent to the addressee's
email address from the sender's information system (as shown in a confirmation of
sending delivery report from the sender's information system).
4.8 Counterpart execution: This deed may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Executed counterparts transmitted by facsimile or email shall be effective as originals.
