PROCEDURAL NOTES
Entitlement to vote
You are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting if you have a shareholding at 5.00pm on Friday 22 May 2020 (New Zealand
time).
There are no restrictions on any shareholder or group of shareholders to prevent them from exercising their vote on any of
the resolutions being considered at the meeting.
Proxies and Corporate Representatives
Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting may appoint a proxy (or representative, in the case of a
corporate shareholder) to attend and vote on their behalf. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. The
appointment of a proxy or representative does not preclude a shareholder from attending the virtual Annual Meeting and
voting.
The Chair of the meeting, or any other director, is willing to act as proxy for any shareholder who wishes to appoint him or
her to vote on their behalf. If you appoint the Chair of the meeting, or any other director, as your proxy and do not direct
him or her how to vote in the proxy form, the Chair of the meeting, or that other director, will vote in favour of all
resolutions being put to the meeting. To appoint the Chair of the meeting or another director as your proxy, enter 'the
Chair' or the name of that other director you wish to appoint in the space allocated in 'Step 1' of the proxy form enclosed
with this Notice. Alternatively, to appoint a proxy online (or in the case of a corporate shareholder, a representative), the
shareholder must make that appointment online by visiting www.investorvote.co.nz. A shareholder will be taken to have
signed the proxy form by lodging it in accordance with the instructions on the website.
If you do not name a person as your proxy but otherwise complete the proxy form in full, or you appoint a proxy but your
named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair of the meeting will be appointed your proxy. When acting as proxy in
these circumstances, the Chair of the meeting will:
• vote in accordance with your express direction; and
• for any resolutions where you have selected "discretion", vote in accordance with his or her discretion (subject
to any applicable voting restrictions).
Proxy forms must be received by the Company’s share registrar, Computershare Investor Services Limited (contact
details for which are set out on the proxy form), by 1.00pm on Sunday 24 May 2020 (New Zealand time). A proxy form is
enclosed with this Notice.
All resolutions for consideration at the Annual Meeting are ordinary resolutions and must be passed by a simple
majority of the votes of those shareholders entitled to vote and voting on the resolutions.
Virtual Annual Meeting
Due to the ongoing public health restrictions relating to the spread of COVID-19, the Company has made the decision to
hold its first virtual Annual Meeting. Shareholders will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. All shareholders
will have the opportunity to attend and participate in the 2020 Annual Meeting online via an internet connection (using a
computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone). The virtual meeting will be accessible on both desktop and mobile devices. In
order to participate remotely you will need to either:
• Download Lumi AGM from the App Store or Google Play Stores for free – search for “Lumi AGM”; or
• Visit “web.lumiagm.com” on your desktop or mobile device. Ensure that your browser is compatible –Lumi
AGM supports the latest version of Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer, Edge or Firefox.
If you have any questions, or need assistance with the online process, please contact Computershare on +64 9 488 8777
between 8.30am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday (New Zealand time).
Audio will stream through the selected device, so shareholders will need to ensure that they have the volume control on
their headphones or device turned up. Shareholders will be able to view the presentations, vote on the resolutions to be
put to shareholders and ask questions, by using their own computers or mobile devices. Shareholders will still be able to
appoint a proxy to vote for them, as they otherwise would, by following the instructions on the proxy form and this Notice
of Annual Meeting.
Details of how to participate ‘virtually’ are provided in the accompanying Virtual Meeting Guide, with instructions for
accessing the virtual meeting. Shareholders are encouraged to review this guide and download the app prior to the
Annual Meeting. Shareholders will require the meeting ID – which is 387-924-334 – as well as their CSN/Securityholder

EXPLANATORY NOTES
Resolution 1 – Election of director:
Eik Sheng KWEK
Mr. Kwek is a Non-Executive Director of the Company and was appointed by the Board on 1 January 2020.
Mr. Kwek is currently the Group Chief Strategy Officer of City Developments Limited (“CDL”) and has been in that role
since 2018. Mr. Kwek joined CDL in 2009, covering Business Development for overseas projects before being appointed
as Head of Corporate Development. He assumed his role as Chief Strategy Officer in 2014 and was additionally
appointed Head, Asset Management in April 2016. Prior to joining CDL, he was with the Hong Leong Group of companies
in Singapore specialising in corporate finance roles since 2006.

as Millennium & Copthorne Hotels plc. He holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from
Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine and a Master of Philosophy in Finance from Judge Business
School, Cambridge University.
In the Board’s opinion, Mr. Kwek is not an independent director because of his association with the Company’s majority
shareholder.
The Board unanimously recommends shareholders vote in favour of the election of Mr. Kwek.
Resolution 2 – Re-election of director:
Roy AUSTIN
Mr. Austin is an Independent Non-Executive Director of CDI and is Chair of the Audit Committee.

firm. He has extensive investment banking experience across a wide range of industries covering mergers, acquisitions,
divestments, capital raising and IP commercialisation. His practical experience also includes participation in local and
international manufacturing, marketing and a New Zealand based private equity fund. Mr Austin is the current Chairman of
CDI’s Audit Committee. He is a Chartered Accountant and a member of the New Zealand Institute of Directors and
CAANZ (Chartered Accountants Australia & New Zealand).
The Board has determined that Mr. Austin is an Independent Director as defined under the NZX Listing Rules.
The Board unanimously recommends shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr. Austin.
Resolution 3 - Auditor’s remuneration:
KPMG is the existing Auditor of the Company. KPMG is automatically reappointed as Auditor under section 207T of the
Companies Act 1993. Section 207S of the Companies Act 1993 provides that the fees and expenses of the auditor are to
be fixed in such manner as the Company determines at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends that, consistent with
usual practice, the auditor’s fees and expenses be fixed by the Directors.
The Board unanimously recommends shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.
