explanatory notes

resolution 1 – re-election of director

In accordance with NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1, a director must not hold

office (without re-election) past the third annual meeting following

the director’s appointment or three years, whichever is longer.

Mary Jane Daly was re-elected at the July 2016 annual meeting,

will retire at this annual meeting and offers herself for re-election in

accordance with NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1.

The Board has determined that Mary Jane Daly will be an independent

director for the purposes of the NZX Listing Rules if re-elected.

The NZX Listing Rules define an independent director as a director

who is not an employee of the Company and who does not have a

Disqualifying Relationship. A Disqualifying Relationship is defined as

any direct or indirect interest, position, association or relationship that

could reasonably influence, or could reasonably be perceived to

influence, in a material way, the director’s capacity to:

1. bring an independent view to decisions in relation to the Company

2. act in the best interests of the Company, and

3. represent the interests of the Company’s Financial Product

holders generally,

having regard to the factors described in the NZX Corporate

Governance Code that may impact director independence, if applicable.

The factors that may impact director independence as described

in the NZX Corporate Governance Code are:

1. Being currently, or within the last three years, employed in an

executive role by the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, and there

has not been a period of at least three years between ceasing such

employment and serving on the Board.

2. Currently, or within the last 12 months, holding a senior role in a

provider of material professional services to the Company or any

of its subsidiaries.

MARK FORD

CHAIR

20 MAY 2019

3. A current, or within the last three years, material business
relationship (e.g. as a supplier or customer) with the Company

or any of its subsidiaries.

4. A substantial product holder of the Company or a senior manager

of, or person otherwise associated with, a substantial product

holder of the Company. A substantial product holder is a person

who has a relevant interest in quoted voting products that

comprise 5% or more of a class of quoted voting products

of the Company.

5. A current, or within the last three years, material contractual

relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, other than

as a director.

6. Having close family ties with anyone in the categories listed above.

7. Having been a director with the Company for a length of time that

may compromise independence.

The Board is committed to ensuring that it possesses the appropriate

mix of skills, knowledge, experience and diversity to discharge its

role and responsibilities. The Board supports the re-election of

Mary Jane Daly as it considers that she has the expertise to contribute

to the overall skill set required by the Board.

profile of Mary Jane Daly

Mary Jane is an Auckland-based professional director with a strong

background in banking and finance. Mary Jane is Deputy Chair of the

board of Airways Corporation of New Zealand Limited and the

Earthquake Commission and is a director of Cigna Life Insurance

New Zealand Limited, Auckland Transport and OnePath Life (NZ)

Limited. She has held senior executive positions in New Zealand at

IAG New Zealand, Fonterra, Bank of New Zealand, and at National

Australia Bank and Toronto-Dominion Bank in London.

resolution 2 – auditor’s remuneration

PricewaterhouseCoopers is automatically reappointed auditor of the

Company at the annual meeting pursuant to section 207(T)(1) of the

Companies Act 1993, unless the auditor gives notice that it does not

wish to be reappointed. PricewaterhouseCoopers has not given such

notice. The resolution sought is to authorise the directors to fix the

remuneration of the auditor pursuant to section 207(S)(a) of the

Companies Act 1993.

resolution 3 – constitution

The former NZX Listing Rules (dated 1 October 2017) have been

replaced by updated NZX Listing Rules (1 January 2019). The Company

opted into compliance with the updated NZX Listing Rules with effect

from 1 April 2019. A number of amendments are required to be made

to the existing Constitution to ensure it meets the requirements of,

and is consistent with, the NZX Listing Rules (as required by NZX

Listing Rule 2.18.1).

Unless expressly stated otherwise, references to clause numbers

below are references to clause numbers in the Constitution as

proposed to be amended.

The amendments to the existing Constitution that have been

proposed for the purposes of alignment with the NZX Listing Rules

can be summarised as follows:

• Voting at meetings of shareholders: clause 17.4 and clauses 21

to 23 have been amended to reflect that voting at shareholder

meetings must be by poll as required under NZX Listing Rule 6.1

(rather than on a show of hands).

• Director independence: clause 27.2 has been amended to reflect

the minimum number of independent directors as specified under

the NZX Listing Rules (being two independent directors), as

amended from time to time.

• Director rotation: clause 27.6 and clauses 27.8 to 27.10 relating to

director rotation have been amended to reflect the new director

rotation requirements within NZX Listing Rule 2.7.

• Director appointment: clause 27.11, relating to the appointment of

directors, has been updated to reflect NZX Listing Rule 2.3.3.

• Executive Directors: the term "Managing Director" has been

replaced with "Executive Director" in clause 29 to be consistent

with the definition within the NZX Listing Rules. The changes also

reflect that Executive Directors are no longer subject to different

rotation requirements from other non-executive directors under

the NZX Listing Rules.

The following amendments are also proposed:

• Updating references to refer to current legislation (e.g. the

introduction of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013) and

removing references to repealed legislation (e.g. references

to the Securities Act 1978 and Securities Transfer Act 1991).

• Clarifying the wording in clause 34.12, relating to written

resolutions by directors.

• Removing all references to facsimile communication.

• Making consequential alterations in numbering throughout

the Constitution.

Under the Companies Act 1993, the proposed amendments must

be approved by a special resolution of shareholders. As the

amendments to the Constitution do not impose or remove a

restriction on the activities of the Company or affect the rights

attaching to shares, the shareholder minority buy-out rights under

the Companies Act 1993 do not apply.

As required by NZX Listing Rule 2.19.1, Russell McVeagh has provided

an opinion to NZX that it considers that these amendments comply

with the NZX Listing Rules.

amendments can be viewed:
