Details of transactions and events giving rise to relevant event

Details of the transactions or other events requiring disclosure: On 10 June 2020, the Tier

1 LPs, Hartley Campbell Atkinson and Colin McKay as trustees of the Atkinson Family Trust

(AF Trust) and AFT entered into a placement and sell down agreement with Bell Potter

Securities Limited and Forsyth Barr Group Limited (together, the Underwriters) and Forsyth

Barr Limited pursuant to which the Underwriters agreed to act as underwriters in

connection with an offer comprising:

• a placement of approximately NZ$10 million new Shares to be issued by AFT;

• a sale of approximately NZ$3.5 million existing Shares held by the AF Trust; and

• a sale of 16,067,045 existing Shares held by the Tier 1 LPs (CRG Sell Down Shares).

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement (34 pages) is attached to this notice.

Under the Underwriting Agreement:

• the Underwriters are contractually required to underwrite the sale of the CRG Sell

Down Shares for the Tier 1 LPs; and

• the Tier 1 LPs agree, for a period of six months after the settlement date of the Offer

(expected to be 15 June 2020) to not sell or transfer any Shares or otherwise grant

any person an option or right to acquire any Shares held by it, except in the

circumstances described in the Underwriting Agreement.

Accordingly, there is a qualification on the power of the CRG Persons to dispose of, or

control the disposal of, the Shares held by the CRG Persons (UWA Qualification). The

board of AFT has also waived certain escrow restrictions described in the SPH notice dated

21 May 2020 filed by the CRG Persons, and the CRG Persons’ interests in the Shares held

terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement;

(b) the Lead Managers will conduct a bookbuild ("Bookbuild") on the Bookbuild

Date (as defined in the timetable) to determine demand for the Shares offered

under the Offer at prices at and above the Underwritten Price from Participants

(defined below). After conclusion of the Bookbuild, the Lead Managers will

advise the Offerors of the volume of demand at various price points and:

(i) the Offerors and the Lead Managers will determine and agree, in each

case acting reasonably and having regard to the outcome of the

Bookbuild, the prospects of success and settlement of the Offer and

the stability of the market for the Shares after completion of the Offer,

the price per Share, being the Underwritten Price or such greater

clearing price under the Bookbuild at which Shares can be allocated

and issued or transferred to Participants for aggregate proceeds of no

less than the Minimum Proceeds under the Offer in accordance with

this Agreement (that price being the "Offer Price"); and

(ii) AFT and the Lead Managers will determine and agree, in each case

acting reasonably, having regard to the matters referred to in clause

4.1(b)(i), the allocation of Shares to Participants (at the Offer Price),

provided that:

(iii) no Shares will be allocated to a Participant whose credit risk the Lead

Managers are not willing to accept (acting reasonably); and

(iv) if the Offerors and the Lead Managers are unable to agree on the

Offer Price (each acting reasonably and having regard to the matters

set out above), the Offer Price will be the Underwritten Price. The

Offer Price will be the same for all Shares under the Offer;

(c) under the Offer, the Offerors will issue or transfer (as applicable) a number of

Shares calculated as follows (the aggregate number of Shares so issued or

transferred being the "Aggregate Offer Shares"):

(i) AFT will issue, at the Offer Price, the number of Shares under the

Placement required to receive gross proceeds equal to the amount

specified in clause 1.1(a) (“New Shares”);

(ii) AF Trust will transfer, at the Offer Price, the number of Shares under

the AF Sell Down required to receive gross proceeds equal to the

amount specified in clause 1.1(b) (“AF Trust Sale Shares”); and

Down, the number of Shares specified in clause 1.1(c) (“CRG Sale

Shares”),

in the case of (i) and (ii) subject to any necessary rounding;



4

(d) the Offerors must comply with the Timetable in respect of the Offer. The

Timetable may be amended by the Offerors with the prior written consent of

(e) the Lead Managers will market the Shares to investors who are (with such

persons being “Participants”):

(i) persons the Lead Managers reasonably believe to be in New Zealand;

(ii) in Australia, persons who AFT considers are persons to whom an

offer of Shares may lawfully be made without disclosure under Part

6D.2 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (as modified by any

applicable regulatory instrument), it being acknowledged that, in the

case of Shares offered under the CRG Sell Down (but not under the

Placement or AF Trust Sell Down), this includes Australian retail

investors; and

(iii) in Hong Kong, to persons that are "professional investors" as defined

under the Securities and Futures Ordinance, Chapter 571 of the Laws

of Hong Kong.

(iv) in Singapore, to persons that are an "institutional investor" (as defined

in the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the

"SFA") or an "accredited investor" (as defined in the SFA);

(v) outside of the above jurisdictions, persons who AFT considers (acting

reasonably) are persons to whom offers and issues of the Shares may

lawfully be made without any other lodgement, registration or approval

with or by a governmental authority (other than one with which the

Offerors, in their absolute discretion, have undertaken in writing to

comply). In those circumstances investor representations will be

sought from the investors in those additional jurisdictions using the

formulations of those representations in the NZ Master ECM Terms,


and, for the purposes of sub-clauses (ii) and (v) above, the Offerors will

promptly advise the Lead Managers if it considers that any person made known

to it by the Lead Managers as a potential subscriber for or acquirer of Shares in

the Offer is not a person to whom it considers that the offer can lawfully be

made in compliance with those sub-clauses;

(f) the Offer will be managed by the Lead Managers on the terms set out in this

Agreement;

Managers and the Underwriters of a duly executed copy of the certificate set out

in Schedule 2 signed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial

Officer of AFT (“Certificate”), by and dated as at 5:00pm on the Business Day

(as that term is defined in the NZX Listing Rules ("Business Day") immediately

preceding the Settlement Date (as defined below);

(h) the Offerors must not decline any allocation of Shares to a particular Participant

at or above the Underwritten Price, except if, and to the extent that, the Offer is

oversubscribed or such allocation would contravene any applicable law; and

(i) settlement of the Offer will occur in accordance with clause 5.



5

4.2 The parties acknowledge that the Offer pricing, marketing, offer structure, process,

allocation process, moratorium and restrictions on offers or solicitations of Shares to

persons and to places outside of the jurisdictions referred to in clause 4.1(e) are for the

purposes of, and are reasonably necessary for, the implementation and success of the

Offer. The parties also acknowledge the Offerors' express instructions and authorisations

for the Lead Managers and Underwriters to communicate with each other and to work

together (including with any applicable syndicate group) in relation to the Lead

Managers' and Underwriters' roles and as otherwise required for the purpose of the Offer

(including without limitation, to negotiate the terms of this Agreement). Notwithstanding

that each Lead Manager and Underwriter will be involved in jointly and cooperatively

supplying services to the Offerors under this Agreement, each Underwriter must make its

own independent decisions whether to hold or sell any Shortfall Shares (defined below),

and if so, for how long and at what price.


5. SETTLEMENT

5.1 The settlement date for the Offer will be 15 June 2020 ("Settlement Date").

5.2 Settlement procedures:

(a) CRG will comply with the settlement procedures agreed with the Lead

Managers and ensure that the CRG Sale Shares are made available to the

Underwriters and Lead Managers consistent with and by the time required

pursuant to such agreed procedures;

(b) AF Trust will comply with the settlement procedures agreed with the Lead

Managers and ensure that the AF Trust Sale Shares are made available to the

Underwriters and Lead Managers consistent with and by the time required

pursuant to such agreed procedures; and

(c) by 9:30 am on the Settlement Date, AFT will deliver, or cause to be delivered,

the New Shares to the account or accounts nominated by, the Underwriters and

Lead Managers,

in each case, to facilitate settlement on a delivery versus payment basis (and strictly on

the basis that such Shares are held by the Underwriters for the benefit of the relevant

Offeror pending settlement on the Settlement Date).

5.3 On the Settlement Date, settlement of the Offer will occur by 5:00pm on a delivery vs

payment basis between the Lead Managers and the Participants to whom Shares are

allocated ("Subscribers") in accordance with procedures to be agreed between the

Offerors and the Lead Managers (each acting reasonably) in consultation with AFT’s

share registrar. One or more Lead Managers and/or such other person(s) nominated by

the Lead Managers and Underwriters will be appointed as settlement agent.



6

5.4 If, after completion of the bookbuild process in respect of the Offer set out in clause 3.1

and settlement on the Settlement Date of the resulting transactions, the Aggregate Offer

Shares have not all been allocated to and settled by Participants in accordance with this

Agreement (the difference between the number of Shares allocated and settled by

Participants and the number of Aggregate Offer Shares being the “Shortfall Shares”),

the Underwriters will at 5.00pm on the Settlement Date make or procure subscriptions for

or purchases of (as applicable) those Shortfall Shares at the Offer Price in the proportions

set out in clause 6.1. If any refusal by the Offerors to accept a bid for Shares under the

Offer at or above the Offer Price and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement

results in there being Shortfall Shares, the Underwriters will not be obliged to make or

procure subscriptions for or purchases of those Shortfall Shares that are attributable to

that refusal.

5.5 The Underwriters may deduct from the payment for the Shortfall Shares all fees payable

or that become payable by the Offerors to the Lead Managers or Underwriters pursuant

to this Agreement.

5.6 AFT will:

(a) ensure that the issue of the New Shares occurs no later than the Settlement

Date; and

(b) notify NZX of the issue of New Shares in accordance with the requirements of

NZX Listing Rule 3.13.1.

5.7 CRG will ensure that the transfer of CRG Sale Shares occurs no later than the Settlement

Date.

5.8 AF Trust will ensure that the transfer of the AF Trust Sale Shares occurs no later than the

Settlement Date.

5.9 The Offerors confirm that, without relieving the Underwriters from their obligations or any

liability under this Agreement, the Underwriters may obtain, in accordance with relevant

laws, sub-underwriting commitments in respect of the Offer and distribute, in accordance

with relevant laws, copies of material and information in connection with the Offer for the

purpose of obtaining sub-underwriting in respect of the Offer.

5.10 On the Settlement Date, the Offerors assign to the Underwriters all contractual rights and

recourse they may have (if any) against any Subscribers who default on their payment

obligation with respect to subscribing for or acquiring the Shares ("Defaulting

Subscribers"). If the Offerors are unable to assign to the Underwriters all of the

contractual rights and recourse referred to in the preceding sentence, the Offerors

undertake that they will assign such rights when and to the extent they are legally able to

and in the interim will hold such rights on trust for the Underwriter.

6. UNDERWRITING OBLIGATIONS

6.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of each

Underwriter under this Agreement are several (and not joint, or joint and several) and

their respective obligations to underwrite subscriptions and transfers of Shares pursuant

to clause 5.4 are in the proportions set out as follows:

Underwriter Underwriting Commitment

FBGL 50%



7

BP 50%

Total 100%

6.2 Without limiting the rights of the Underwriters under clause 10, if, for whatever reason,

one Underwriter does not subscribe and pay for all or part of its underwriting commitment

(the unfulfilled commitment being the "Default Commitment") under clause 5.4

("Defaulting Underwriter"), the other Underwriter ("Remaining Underwriter") may elect

by notice in writing to the Offerors and the Defaulting Underwriter within two Business

Days of the Defaulting Underwriter failing to duly satisfy its underwriting commitment

under this Agreement in full, to assume the obligations of the Defaulting Underwriter with

respect to all or part of that Default Commitment. In the event that the Remaining

Underwriter exercises its discretion not to assume all of the Default Commitment, the

Remaining Underwriter will use reasonable endeavours, for a period of two Business

Days, to work with the Offerors to identify one or more mutually acceptable replacement

underwriters to assume all or part of the Default Commitment not assumed by the

Remaining Underwriter.

6.3 If the Remaining Underwriter assumes any of the Default Commitment, then the

Remaining Underwriter, in addition to the fees to which it is entitled under clause 7, will,

subject to the performance of its obligations in accordance with this Agreement, also be

entitled to (and the Defaulting Underwriter shall have no entitlement to any part of) the

fees, in relation to the Default Commitment assumed by the Remaining Underwriter, that

would have been payable to the Defaulting Underwriter if the Defaulting Underwriter had

not failed to satisfy its underwriting commitment under this Agreement.

6.4 No action taken pursuant to this clause 6 shall relieve any Defaulting Underwriter from

liability in respect of its default.

7. UNDERWRITING AND PLACEMENT FEES

7.1 In consideration of the Underwriters agreeing to underwrite the Offer in accordance with

this Agreement, each Offeror will, immediately following allotment of Shares on the

Settlement Date, pay to the Lead Managers and Underwriters directly from their gross

proceeds of the Offer the fees (“Underwriting Fees”) set out in the separate engagement

letter between that Offeror, the Lead Managers and the Underwriters (those engagement

letters together, the “Engagement Letters”).

7.2 For clarity, both the Lead Managers and Underwriters will be entitled to recover costs and

expenses associated with the Offer from the Offerors on the same basis and terms as set

out in the Engagement Letters, whether or not they are also a party to the Engagement

Letters.

8. MARKETING MATERIAL

8.1 The parties agree that:

(a) the marketing materials to be used in connection with the Offer (being the

market announcement of the launch of the Offer, the Cleansing Notice and

Investor presentation) (the “Marketing Documents”) will be in the form agreed

between AFT and the Lead Managers and Underwriters prior to entry into this

Agreement; and

(b) such Marketing Documents will be released by AFT to NZX and ASX at the

same time as, or prior to, the release of the Cleansing Notice.

10

(i) contained any false, misleading or deceptive statement of a material

fact; or

(ii) omitted to state a particular fact required to be stated in that

information in order to make the statements therein, in light of the

circumstances in which they were made, not false, misleading or

Agreement or which may affect the likelihood of a successful Offer, the Offer

Price and/or the perception of the Offer from the point of view of Participants.

For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation on AFT under this clause includes

disclosure of material information regardless of whether or not the exceptions to

disclosure in NZX Listing Rule 3.1 apply to that information.

(e) No litigation: Neither AFT nor any of its related companies (as defined in the

Companies Act 1993 read as if the word "company" in that definition includes

arbitration or administrative proceeding relating to claims or amounts which are

material in the context of the Offer nor is any such litigation, arbitration or

administrative proceeding pending or threatened.

(f) Solvency: AFT, together with its subsidiaries as a consolidated group, is solvent

and (other than as disclosed in the Financial Information, as defined below) no

may cease to be solvent or able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.

(g) Financial Information: AFT’s 31 March 2020 audited financial information

released on 20 May 2020, together with the notes thereto and commentary

(“Financial Information”), presents fairly in all material respects the combined

financial position of AFT and its subsidiaries as of the dates shown and the

financial performance and cash flows for the periods shown in accordance with

NZ GAAP and the basis of preparation and combination and assumptions set

out in the notes to those statements applied on a consistent basis throughout

the periods involved. The Financial Information has been prepared in good faith,

and the assumptions used in preparing the Financial Information are reasonable

and the adjustments therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions

and circumstances referred to therein.

(h) Financial position: Since the date of the Financial Information, except as

otherwise expressly disclosed in the Marketing Documents or by way of

announcement to the NZX and ASX prior to the date of this Agreement:

(i) the business of AFT and its subsidiaries has been carried on in the

ordinary and usual course in all material respects; and



11

(ii) as far as AFT is aware, there has been no occurrence which has or

will (either itself or together with any other occurrence) materially and

adversely affect the value of the Shares, the financial position,

profitability or prospects of AFT or any of its subsidiaries or any of the

property or assets of AFT or its subsidiaries.

(i) Brokers' fees and commissions: Except as disclosed in the Marketing

Documents or in writing to the Lead Managers and Underwriters prior to the

date of this Agreement, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings

Offer.

agreement binding on it, that is material in the context of the Offer.

(l) Material Contracts: There:

(i) is no contract which is material to AFT or any subsidiary which has not

been disclosed to NZX and ASX, if required by the NZX Listing Rules,

by AFT or any subsidiary in a material respect of any provision of any

contract which is material to AFT or any subsidiary.

(m) Licences: AFT and each subsidiary holds all licences, permits, authorisations or

consents which are material to the conduct of its business and all such licences,

(n) Quotation: It is the current intention of the directors of AFT to maintain the

advice provided by or procured by the Offerors or any Affiliates of the Offerors.

(f) No direct selling efforts: With respect to those Shares under the Offer sold in

reliance on Regulation S under the US Securities Act, neither it nor any of its

10.5 Effect of termination:

(a) In the event that a Lead Manager or an Underwriter (in the case of an

Underwriter, the "Terminating Underwriter") validly terminates its obligations

under this Agreement pursuant to clause 10.4, it will be relieved of its

obligations under this Agreement.



18

(b) The exercise by a Terminating Underwriter of its rights under clause 10.4 does

not automatically terminate the obligations of the Lead Managers or Underwriter

(in the case of the Underwriter, the "Non-Terminating Underwriter"). Nothing

in this clause 10.5 limits the rights of a Lead Manager or Non-Terminating

Underwriter under clause 10.4.

(c) The Non-Terminating Underwriter may, in its absolute and unfettered discretion,

elect by notice in writing to the Offerors within two Business Days of the

Terminating Underwriter terminating its obligations under this Agreement to

assume all or part of the obligations of the Terminating Underwriter. In the

event that the Non-Terminating Underwriter exercises its discretion not to

assume all of the Terminating Underwriter's obligations, this Agreement will

automatically terminate.

(d) If the Non-Terminating Underwriter gives notice under clause 10.5(c) prior to

settlement that it will assume any obligations of the Terminating Underwriter

under this Agreement which have not yet been performed, then, subject to the

performance of its obligations in accordance with this Agreement, the Non-

Terminating Underwriter, in addition to the fees to which it is entitled under the

Engagement Letters, will also be entitled to the fees (in relation to the

obligations of the Terminating Underwriter which it has assumed) that would

have been payable to the Terminating Underwriter (and if the Terminating

Underwriter is not also a Lead Manager, the fees that would have been payable

to the terminating Lead Manager) if it had not terminated its obligations

(including under the relevant Engagement Letters), and the Terminating

Underwriter (and, if applicable, terminating Lead Manager) will not receive any

part of those fees.

(e) Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, nothing in this clause 10.5 will

limit the Terminating Party's right to be paid the applicable fees and expenses in

accordance with the Engagement Letters.

10.6 Subject to clause 10.7, AFT, acting reasonably (including, where circumstances

reasonably permit, after discussion with the Lead Managers and Underwriters), may at

any time by notice to the Lead Managers and Underwriters prior to allotment of Shares on

the Settlement Date cancel the Offer and terminate this Agreement.

10.7 Termination of this Agreement will not affect:

(a) any rights or obligations arising from prior breach of this Agreement or the

Engagement Letters; or

(b) clauses 7.2, 12, 15, 17.1, 17.2, 17.8 and 19 of this Agreement,

all of which survive any termination.

11. NOTICE OF BREACH

11.1 Each party undertakes that it will notify the other parties in writing as soon as it becomes

aware of a breach or potential breach by that party of any of the warranties applicable to

it set out in clause 9 and additionally in the case of AFT, the occurrence of any of the

termination events set out in clause 10.4.

12. INDEMNITY

12.1 Each of AFT and CRG jointly and severally agree that:



19

(a) it will, to the maximum extent permitted by law, fully and effectively indemnify

and hold harmless the Lead Managers, Underwriters and each of their

respective related companies (for these purposes “related company” has the

meaning given to it by in section 2 of the Companies Act 1993, reading

references to a “company” as references to any body corporate wherever

incorporated) and Affiliates, and each of the directors, officers, employees,

advisers, and agents of those companies (each an “Indemnified Person”) from

and against all claims, actions, proceedings, demands, liabilities, losses,

damages, costs and expenses (including without limitation fees and

disbursements of counsel and expenses incurred in connection with preparing

for and responding to third party subpoenas) arising out of, or in connection

with, this Agreement (including to the extent that an Affiliate acts as underwriter,

which is deemed to be part of this Agreement) (including all claims, actions,

proceedings or demands relating to the Agreement or the Offer) which any

Indemnified Person may suffer or incur in any jurisdiction;

(b) all costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnified Person in connection with

the investigation of, preparation for or defence of, any pending or threatened

investigation, enquiry, hearing, proceeding, litigation or claim within the terms of

this indemnity or any matter incidental thereto are to be reimbursed by it

promptly on demand; and

(c) no Indemnified Person will have any liability whatsoever (whether directly or

indirectly, in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise) to an Offeror or

any of its related bodies corporate, or their respective directors, officers,

employees, advisers and agents, for or in connection with things done or

omitted to be done pursuant to this Agreement and the Lead Managers' and

Underwriters' role;

(such actions, claims, damages, costs, expenses, etc., being collectively referred to

herein as “Losses”) provided that the indemnity and reimbursement obligations in sub-

clauses (a) and (b) above and the limitation of liability in sub-clause (c) above shall not

apply to an Indemnified Person to the extent any Losses incurred by that Indemnified

Person are finally determined by a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have

resulted primarily from an action, or omission to act, of that Indemnified Person which

constitutes fraud, wilful misconduct, wilful default or gross negligence on the part of that

Indemnified Person (“Default or Negligence”).

12.2 AF Trust agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to fully and effectively

indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against all claims,

actions, proceedings, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses

(including without limitation fees and disbursements of counsel and expenses incurred in

connection with preparing for and responding to third party subpoenas) arising out of, or

in connection with:

(a) any of AF Trust’s representations and warranties in this Agreement not being

true and correct; or

(b) the AF Trust breaching this Agreement,

except to the extent that:

(c) any Losses are finally determined by a judgment of a court of competent

jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from Default or Negligence; or

(d) any Losses are judicially determined to have resulted from:



20

(i) any of AFT’s representations and warranties in this Agreement not

being true and correct or AFT breaching this Agreement; or

(ii) any of CRG’s representations and warranties in this Agreement not

being true and correct or CRG breaching this Agreement.

12.3 Each Offeror will notify the Lead Managers and Underwriters if it becomes aware of any

claim which may give rise to a liability under the indemnities in clause 12.1 and 12.2.

12.4 Without prejudice to any claim the Offerors may have against the Lead Managers or

Underwriters, no proceedings may be taken against any Indemnified Person (other than

the Lead Managers or Underwriters) ("Released Person") in respect of any claim an

Offeror may have against a Lead Manager or Underwriter (a "Relevant Claim") and the

Offerors unconditionally and irrevocably release and discharge each Released Person

from any claim that may be made by the Offeror to recover from any Released Person

any Losses relating to a Relevant Claim.

12.5 If, for any reason (other than by operation of the exceptions to the indemnity in

clause 12.1) the indemnity in clause 12.1 is unavailable or insufficient to hold the

Indemnified Person harmless in respect of the full amount of a Loss, AFT and CRG shall

contribute promptly upon demand in such amount as is appropriate to reflect the relative

fault of AFT and CRG on the one hand and of the Indemnified Person on the other hand

in connection with the circumstances of the Loss.

12.6 To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnified Persons will not in aggregate

be liable for, or required to contribute for an amount in connection with, a Loss, or a

series of Losses that may reasonably be considered to be sufficiently connected so as to

be taken together as one Loss, in excess of the amount of all fees actually received (or

which would have been received if the Offer settled) by the Lead Managers and

Underwriters from the Offerors in connection with this Agreement and no Indemnified

Person will be liable for an indirect loss of profits or for any other indirect or consequential

Loss or damage.

12.7 The indemnity and limitations and exclusions of liability in this section:

(a) are, subject to clause 17.7, in addition to any liability which the Offerors might

otherwise have, or any other rights which any Indemnified Person might

otherwise have;

(b) are fully enforceable in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any act,

matter, omission or thing that, but for this provision, would or might give rise to a

defence or counterclaim to such enforcement;

(c) are intended to benefit each Indemnified Person for the purposes of the

Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017 and each such person is entitled to

enforce the provisions thereof; and

(d) shall survive and continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the termination

of this Agreement.

12.8 The rights of an Indemnified Person under this Agreement will not in any way be

prejudiced or affected by:

(a) any approval given by it concerning the Marketing Documents or any other

involvement in preparation of materials distributed in connection with the Offer

or in the due diligence committee;



21

(b) any consent to be named in the Marketing Documents or any other document;

(c) any knowledge (actual or constructive) obtained after the date of this

Agreement of:

(i) any non-compliance by an Offeror with any statutory, NZX or ASX

requirement concerning the Offer, or the Marketing Documents;

(ii) any failure of an Offeror to perform or observe any of its obligations

under this Agreement; or

(iii) any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made or taken to

have been made by an Offeror under this Agreement;

(d) any valid termination by an Underwriter of its obligation to underwrite the Offer

under this Agreement; or

(e) any other fact, matter or thing which might otherwise constitute a waiver of or in

any way prejudice or affect any right of an Indemnified Person.

12.9 The Offerors will promptly notify the Lead Managers and Underwriters of any limitation on

the extent to which the Offeror may claim against any third party or third parties in

connection with the Offer (a “Relevant Limitation”).

12.10 Where any damage or loss is suffered by an Offeror for which an Indemnified Person

would otherwise be jointly and severally liable with any third party or third parties to the

Offeror, the extent to which such loss will be recoverable by the Offeror from the

Indemnified Person will:

(a) be limited so as to be in proportion to the Indemnified Person’s contribution to

the overall fault for such damage or loss, as agreed between the parties or, in

the absence of agreement, as finally determined by a court of competent

jurisdiction; and

(b) be no more than it would have been had any Relevant Limitation not been

agreed to by the Offeror.

The degree to which the Lead Managers and Underwriters may rely on the work of any

such third party (if any) will be unaffected by any Relevant Limitation. This letter does not

grant any Indemnified Person any claim against a third party in respect of the work of that

third party.

(any disclosure being limited to information which has been made publically available by

AFT) for the purposes of marketing or positioning.

16. FINAL RESPONSIBILITY OF AFT

16.1 Notwithstanding that the Lead Managers and Underwriters, their respective employees

and advisers have assisted and will continue to assist in the compilation of material for,

and the preparation of, the Marketing Documents, AFT acknowledges and agrees that

AFT is and will remain solely and absolutely responsible for ensuring:



25

(a) the accuracy, completeness, consistency and materiality of the contents of the

Marketing Documents and of any other announcements and disclosures

authorised by AFT in connection with the Offer;

(b) that all notices, reports, announcements, and advertising material published,

authorised or instigated by or on behalf of AFT in connection with the Offer, or

the Marketing Documents, are not false, deceptive or misleading or likely to

mislead or deceive (including by omission) or unsubstantiated (being a

statement for which AFT does not have reasonable grounds, other than a

statement that a reasonable person would not expect to be substantiated) and

comply with all applicable laws and regulations; and

(c) that it conducts the Offer in accordance with the FMCA, the FMCR, the

Takeovers Code, the Corporations Act, the NZX Listing Rules, the ASX Listing

Rules and all other applicable laws and regulations.

17. GENERAL

17.1 CRG appoints Chapman Tripp as its agent in New Zealand for service of process and

other documents in any legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with

this Agreement and will ensure that at all times Chapman Tripp or a replacement

appointed by CRG and notified to the other parties to this Agreement, is authorised and

able to accept service of process and other documents on its behalf in New Zealand.

17.2 Each Offeror will be responsible for its own costs and expenses in connection with and

incidental to the preparation and carrying into effect of this Agreement and will be

responsible for the Lead Managers' and Underwriters' costs and expenses in accordance

with the Engagement Letters.

17.3 No provision of this Agreement will be construed adversely to a party solely on the

provision.

17.4 In this Agreement, unless the context requires otherwise:

(b) the headings are for convenience and do not affect interpretation; and

17.5 A party must not assign or purport to assign any of that party’s rights under this

Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party.

17.6 The parties contemplate the execution of this Agreement in counterparts and the delivery

by email or PDF copies of the signature pages of such executed counterparts, but agree

that receipt by a party of an email or PDF copy of the signature pages of any executed

copy will be as binding and effective as receipt of the original thereof.

17.7 This Agreement (together with the Engagement Letters) constitutes the entire agreement,

understanding and arrangement (express and implied) between the parties relating to the

subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes and cancels any previous agreement,

understanding and arrangement relating thereto whether written or oral. This Agreement

supersedes and prevails over the Engagement Letters to the extent of any inconsistency

or duplication. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the indemnity in

clause 12.2 supersedes and extinguishes all indemnities provided by the AF Trust to the



26

Indemnified Persons in the Engagement Letter between AF Trust, the Lead Managers

and the Underwriters.

17.8 For the purposes of the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, the indemnity contained

in clause 12 of this Agreement is given for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons and is

enforceable at the suit of each Indemnified Person (but on the basis that the benefit so

conferred, and enforceable, is the benefit of that indemnity as it (and/or any other

provision of this Agreement) may be amended from time to time by agreement between

the parties to this Agreement) but otherwise the provisions of this Agreement are not

intended to benefit any other person.

17.9 This Agreement may only be amended by agreement in writing signed by all parties.

17.10 The Lead Managers and Underwriters will not have, and will not state or imply that they

have, any power or authority to incur obligations or otherwise act on behalf the Offerors

except to the extent expressly set out in this Agreement. The obligations of each of the

Lead Managers and Underwriters under this Agreement are several (and not joint or joint

and several) and no Lead Manager or Underwriter shall be responsible for the obligations

of the other.

17.11 Time is of the essence for the performance of all obligations in respect of which a time

period or date, or both, is specified in this Agreement (including the Timetable).

17.12 The Offerors acknowledge and agree that each Lead Manager and Underwriter is acting

solely pursuant to a contractual relationship with the Offerors on an arm's length basis

and on the terms, and with the obligations and duties expressly stated in this Agreement,

and not as a fiduciary to the Offerors or any other person.

17.13 Colin McKay has entered into this Agreement solely in his capacity as trustee of the AF

Trust and, accordingly, his liability will extend only to the assets which are for the time

being the subject of the AF Trust and in the hands of the trustees in the proper course of

administration of that trust, except to the extent that he has acted dishonestly or in wilful

or negligent breach of the trust.

18. NON-MERGER

18.1 The warranties, acknowledgments and indemnities given under or pursuant to this

Agreement will not merge on completion of the issue and allocation of the Shares or on

allotment or transfer of any Shares to the Subscribers, but will remain in full force and

effect on or after the Settlement Date notwithstanding settlement.

19. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

19.1 This Agreement and all matters arising out of or in connection with it, is governed by, and

will be construed in accordance with, the laws of New Zealand, without regard to any

conflict of laws principles that would indicate the applicability of the laws of any other

based on this Agreement may be instituted in any competent court in New

Zealand;
