EXPLANATORY NOTES

Resolution 1: Re-election of Chang Ku EE

Chang Ku EE, who was appointed as a Director by the Board, retires from office and, being eligible,
offers himself for re-election. The Board does not consider Mr EE to be an Independent Director.

Mr EE is a successful entrepreneur and has been involved in establishing and operating a range of

Mr EE has ownership interests and currently holds senior executive and company director roles in

The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Mr EE’s re-election as
Director.

Resolution 2: Auditors

BDO is automatically reappointed as auditor under section 207T of the Companies Act 1993. This
resolution authorises the Board to fix the fees and expenses of the auditor.

Resolution 3: Revocation and adoption of the New Constitution

Resolution 3 proposes to approve the revocation of SNC’s existing Constitution and the adoption of a
New Constitution.

Background

On 1 January 2019, NZX introduced new Listing Rules which replaced the former NZX Main Board
Listing Rules dated 1 October 2017 and from 1 July 2019 NZX consolidated the NZAX market into the
NZX Main Board. As a result of that consolidation, SNC was required to migrate from the NZAX to the
NZX Main Board and comply with the new Listing Rules from the date of its migration. SNC migrated
to the NZX Main Board on 20 June 2019.

The updated Listing Rules, under Listing Rule 2.18.1, require SNC to ensure that its Constitution
complies with the updated Listing Rules. SNC’s existing Constitution was adopted when SNC was
listed on the NZAX market and was drafted to comply with the NZAX Listing Rules. A number of
amendments must be made to SNC’s existing Constitution to ensure it complies with the new Listing
Rules, particularly removal of any references to the NZAX Listing Rules.

Due to the number of amendments that are required to SNC’s existing Constitution, the Board is
recommending that SNC revoke its existing Constitution and adopt the New Constitution which
complies with the Listing Rules.

A summary of the key changes in the proposed New Constitution is set out as follows:

 Company name: The company name is updated from Lateral Corporation Limited to SNC;

 NZAX references: All references to the NZAX Listing Rules are removed with the new Listing
Rules now incorporated by reference;

 Shares in lieu of dividends: Includes a new clause that allows the Board to issue Shares to
any shareholder that has agreed to accept the issue of Shares in lieu of dividends;

 Disposal of forfeited Shares: Allows the Board to dispose of any forfeited Shares in such a
manner as the Board determines;

10560368_1 4

 Compulsory sale of less than minimum holdings: The procedure allowing the Board to sell
Share parcels less than the minimum holding (defined under the Listing Rules as parcels of
Shares less than $1,000) is amended to allow SNC to provide for those shares to be sold
(including through a broker on SNC’s behalf) rather than solely through NZX or in some
manner approved by NZX;

 Shareholders meeting quorum: The quorum required for a meeting of shareholders has
been amended from two shareholders to three shareholders;

 Proceedings at meetings of shareholders: Includes under schedule 1 the proceedings at
meetings of shareholders as opposed to the proceedings being governed largely by the
Companies Act; and

 Appointment of directors: Includes a new clause that requires SNC to comply with the
minimum Board composition and rotation and election of directors requirements under the
Listing Rules for as long as SNC remains listed.

The form of the New Constitution can be viewed at www.nzx.com/companies/SNC/announcements.

SNC’s solicitors, Duncan Cotterill, have provided an opinion to NZX that they considered that the
proposed New Constitution complies with the Listing Rules, as required under Listing Rule 2.19.1.

Process for revoking and adopting the New Constitution

Pursuant to section 32(2) of the Companies Act 1993, the adoption of the New Constitution must be
approved by special resolution of shareholders.

As the revocation and adoption of the New Constitution does not impose or remove a restriction on the
activities of SNC or affect the rights attaching to the shares, the shareholder minority buy-out rights
under the Companies Act 1993 do not apply.

revoked, reduced or postponed as the Board may determine. The Company is not required to
give notice and particulars of a call to a subsequent holder of those Shares.

expenses incurred by the Company (including reasonable legal fees) by reason of the delay in
payment or non-payment. The Board may waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

the name of the relevant Shareholder is entered in the Share Register as the holder, or
one of the holders, of the Shares to which the call relates; and
except in relation to any amount which, by the terms of issue of a share, is payable on
allotment or at a fixed date, the resolution making the call is entered in the Records and
notice of the call has been duly given,
and proof of the matters mentioned in this clause is conclusive evidence of the debt;
and
it is not necessary to prove the appointment or qualification of any member of the
Board which made the call nor any other matter.

at any time thereafter before the payment required by the notice has been made, any Share in
respect of which the notice has been given may be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to
that effect. The forfeiture will include any Distribution declared in respect of the forfeited Share
and not paid before the forfeiture.
Cancellation of forfeiture – A forfeiture may be cancelled at any time before the sale of the
forfeited Share, on such terms as the Board thinks fit.

Shares, until the Company receives payment in full of all outstanding amounts in respect of
those forfeited Shares.
Evidence of forfeiture – An entry in the Share Register that a Share has been forfeited on a
date stated in the Share Register shall be conclusive evidence of those facts as against all
persons claiming to be entitled to the Share.
Disposal – Forfeited Shares may be disposed of in such a manner as the Board determines.
Proceeds of forfeited Shares – If Shares are forfeited and sold the proceeds of sale shall
first be applied in payment of all costs and expenses of such sale and any attempted sale and

the holder of the Share at the time of its forfeiture.
Disposal procedure – Any Director may execute a transfer of the forfeited Shares in favour of
the person to whom the Shares are disposed of, and the Company may receive consideration
for such disposal. Upon registration of such transfer the transferee shall be the Shareholder of
such Shares discharged from all calls due prior to transfer. The transferee shall not be bound
to see to the application of the purchase money nor shall the transferee’s title to the Shares be
affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the forfeiture or disposal. The remedy of the former
Shareholder, and of any person claiming under or through the former Shareholder, shall be
against the Company exclusively and in damages only.

of those Shares; and

Shares, including withholding and other taxes, whether or not the due date for
payment of such amounts has arrived.

10336160_1 8
Waiver of lien – Unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the relevant
Shareholder, the registration of a transfer of a Share will operate as a waiver of any lien which
the Company may have on that share, except as provided in clause 8.
Company may sell Shares – The Company may sell any Share on which the Company has a
lien, in such manner as the Board thinks fit if:
a sum in respect of which the lien exists is due and payable; and

notice demanding payment of the amount owing was given to the person entitled to
receive notice of meetings of Shareholders in respect of the Shares.
Proceeds of sale – If Shares are sold pursuant to clause 7.3, the proceeds of sale shall first
be applied in payment of all costs and expenses of such sale and any attempted sale and then

lien exists. The residue, if any, will be paid to the holder of the Share immediately prior to the
sale or, if applicable, to the Personal Representative of the holder. The registration of a
transfer of Shares shall operate as a waiver of the lien by the Company but not as a release of
any outstanding liability owed by any holder of the Share immediately prior to the sale.
Evidence – A certificate by a Director that any power of sale has arisen and is exercisable by
the Company under this Constitution, will be conclusive evidence of those facts.
Sale procedure – For giving effect to any sale under clause 7.3, the Board may execute a
transfer of the Shares to the transferee. The transferee will be registered as the holder of the
Share discharged from all calls due prior to sale. The transferee shall not be bound to see the
application of the purchase money nor shall the transferees’ title to the Share be affected by
any irregularity or invalidity on the sale. The remedy of any person having a cause of action in
relation to the sale is in damages only and solely against the Company.

Shares if:
the Company has a lien over the Shares; or

transfer required by this clause 8 is accompanied by the Share certificate, or by
evidence as to its loss or destruction and, if required, an indemnity in a form
prescribed by the Board,
provided that the Board resolves to exercise its power under this clause within 30 working
days after receipt of the relevant transfer and notice of the resolution is sent to the transferor
and to the transferee within five working days of the resolution being passed by the Board.

was a joint Shareholder, or the Personal Representative, will be the only persons recognised
by the Company as having any title to or interest in the Shares of the deceased Shareholder,
but nothing in this clause will release the estate of a deceased joint Shareholder from any
liability in respect of any Share, or constitute a release of any lien which the Company may
have in respect of any Share.
Joint Personal Representatives – Where a Share is subject to the control of two or more
persons as Personal Representatives, they will, for the purposes of this Constitution, be
deemed to be joint holders of the Share.
