Notes on Voting
1 The resolutions will be voted on by shareholders of the Company as ordinary resolutions.
2 An ordinary resolution is a resolution passed by a simple majority of the votes cast of the shareholders
entitled to vote and voting.
3 The only persons entitled to vote at the annual meeting are registered shareholders as at 5:00 pm on
Monday 21 September 2020 and only the ordinary shares registered in those shareholders’ names may
be voted at the annual meeting.
4 Any shareholder who is entitled to vote at the annual meeting may appoint a proxy to attend and vote
on their behalf. A shareholder wishing to appoint a proxy should complete the enclosed Voting/Proxy
form and send it to Computershare Investor Services Limited, Private Bag 92119, Auckland 1142, New
Zealand, fax it to +64 9 488 8787, or lodge online using Computershare’s investorvote facility so as to
ensure that it is received at least 48 hours before the time for holding the meeting. A proxy does not
have to be a shareholder in the Company. A shareholder may appoint any person to act as a proxy. The
Chairman or any of the other Directors is prepared to, act as a discretionary proxy for any shareholder.
If, in appointing a proxy, you have inadvertently not named someone to be your proxy (either online or
on the enclosed proxy form), or your named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chairman of the
meeting will be your proxy and will vote in accordance with your express direction. If appointed as a
discretionary proxy, each Director intends to vote in favour of all resolutions.
5 To direct your proxy how to vote on each resolution, you should tick the appropriate box on the enclosed
proxy form. Except as set out in the proxy form, if you appoint a proxy, but do not tick one of the boxes
in relation to a resolution, you will be deemed to have granted your proxy the discretion to cast your
votes as he or she decides.
6 Any corporation that is a shareholder may appoint a person as its representative to attend the annual
meeting and vote on its behalf, in the same manner as that in which it could appoint a proxy. A
corporation wishing to appoint a person must ensure that the representative brings an original of the
notice appointing him or her to the meeting. To assist administration, the Company would be grateful if
notices appointing representatives are delivered to Computershare Investor Services Limited, Private
Bag 92119, Auckland 1142, New Zealand, at least 48 hours before the time of the meeting. If the notice
of appointment is not delivered to the Company’s Share Registrar prior to the meeting, the
representative must bring to the meeting an original copy of the notice of appointment signed by the
relevant Company or body corporate.
For and on behalf of the Board

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
VIRTUAL MEETING
In light of recent public health restrictions in New Zealand relating to the spread of COVID-19 (particularly
those relating to international arrivals and large gatherings of people) the Company has made the decision
to hold its first virtual annual meeting. 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).
Virtual meetings are accessible on both desktop and mobile devices. In order to participate remotely you will
need to 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.
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.
Please note that not all questions may be able to be answered during the meeting. In this case, questions
will be followed up after the meeting and all questions and answers will be made available on the Company’s

Number, which can be found on their proxy form, for verification purposes.
AUDITORS
Resolution 1
Baker Tilly Staples Rodway is automatically reappointed as auditor of the Company under section 207T of
the Companies Act 1993 (the Act). The proposed resolution seeks shareholder confirmation of this and
empowers the Directors to set the remuneration of the auditors.
DIRECTORS
Under rule 2.7.1 of the NZX Listing Rules (the Listing Rules), a director must not hold office past the third
annual meeting following appointment or three years, whichever is longer, without being re-elected by
shareholders. Accordingly, John Roberts and Matthew Harrison retire and, being eligible, offer themselves for
re-election. The Board unanimously supports these re-elections.
Brief biographies outlining John Roberts and Matthew Harrison’s histories and experience are set out below.
Resolution 2
John Roberts retires by rotation pursuant to the Listing Rules, and being eligible, has offered himself for
re-election.
John Roberts has extensive experience in the financial services industry, having held the role of Managing
Director of credit bureau Veda International for 10 years, during which time the Veda Advantage business
was successfully listed on the ASX. John previously had over 15 years in advertising, with CEO roles with
Saatchi & Saatchi in New Zealand and Asia Pacific, before heading up MasterCard in New Zealand for three
years. John is currently a director of Centrix, a leading credit rating agency in NZ, and this keeps him
100401191/7984760.2
4
connected with the financial sector and the NZ credit cycle. John’s advertising and branding experience has
been invaluable across a number of projects within the business and he continues to add value and thought
leadership around the use of data and analytics, drawing on his Veda NZ experience. In terms of the Listing
Rules, the Board considers that John Roberts is an independent non-executive Director.
Resolution 3
Matthew Harrison retires by rotation pursuant to the Listing Rules, and being eligible, has offered himself
for re-election.
Matthew Harrison has extensive management experience and a background in finance and business
administration. He is the former Managing Director of EC Credit Control, the debt recovery business acquired
in 2012 and has great experience dealing with credit cycles and credit management. He joined EC Credit
Control in 1998, following senior management roles in the courier industry. Matthew joined the Turners
Automotive Group Board in 2012 and represents his family interests, which have a 7.65% combined holding
in the Company. Matthew is a self-confessed “car nut” and has owned some very special cars over the years
including a McLaren P1. He is very enthusiastic about the future of Turners and, given his large shareholding
and love for automobiles, is strongly committed to seeing Turners continue its successful journey. In terms
of the Listing Rules, the Board considers that Matthew Harrison is a non-executive Director but is not
independent.
