a representative,
to attend and vote on his/her behalf. The proxy or representative you appoint need not necessarily
be a shareholder of the Company. A form of appointment is enclosed. Address for proxies: Link Market Services

EXPLANATORY NOTES

1 Re-election of Directors

Under the new NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1, a Director must not hold office past the later of three years and the third
annual meeting after their appointment without being re-elected by shareholders. The Directors to retire, being
Messrs David Alan Pilkington and Douglas William Leeder, are required to retire from office at the Annual
Meeting. Both of these Directors are eligible and are therefore offering themselves for re-election at the Annual
Meeting with the unanimous support of the Board.

The Board has determined that David Alan Pilkington is considered independent as defined in the NZX Listing
Rules.
Details of the two Directors are available on our website:

Appointment of proxy
The “Chair of the Meeting” is willing to act as proxy for any shareholder who wishes to appoint him/her for that purpose. If you wish, you may appoint the
“Chair of the Meeting” as your proxy. To do so, please write “Chair of the Meeting” in the section marked “full name of proxy”. The Chair will vote according
to your instructions. If the Chair is not instructed how to vote, he will vote as he thinks fit or abstain from voting. If you do not appoint a proxy your Proxy

attend and vote instead of him/her and that proxy or representative need not also be a shareholder.

Voting of your holding
Direct your proxy how to vote by making the appropriate election, either online or on this Proxy Form, in respect of each item of business. If you return
this form without directing the proxy how to vote on any particular matter, the proxy may vote as he/she thinks fit or abstain from voting.

Attending the meeting
