Capital Allocation Framework

◼Significant capital to be sourced from asset sales during FY19 –Darwin/Auckland car parks

◼Expect to have significant surplus cash

◼Future growth investments still being developed/evaluated

◼Prudent to return some capital to shareholders

•On-market buy-back (on NZX) for up to 5% of total shares during 2019

•Buy-back expected to partially offset EPS dilution from asset sales and be value-enhancing for

shareholders
