Market Release
7 October 2020
Serko announces opening of NZ$10 million share purchase plan
Serko Limited (NZX/ASX:SKO) ("Serko"), a leader in online travel booking and expense management
for the business travel market, is pleased to announce the opening of its NZ$10 million non-
underwritten share purchase plan ("SPP"). The SPP is part of Serko's equity raising initiative
announced on 1 October 2020, whereby Serko also undertook a fully underwritten placement of new
shares to institutional and other select investors in both local and offshore markets ("Placement").
Serko announced the successful completion of the Placement bookbuild on 2 October 2020, which
was well supported and oversubscribed at the price determined in the bookbuild of NZ$4.55 per share,
resulting in Serko increasing the total size of the placement from NZ$45 million to NZ$47.5 million.
Eligible retail Serko shareholders with a registered address in New Zealand or Australia at the record
date of 30 September 2020 will receive their application forms to apply for up to a maximum of
NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 of new shares per shareholder. The price of these shares will be the lower of
the price paid by investors in the Placement, being NZ$4.55, or the five day volume weighted average
price of Serko shares traded on the NZX during the last five days of the SPP offer period. If scaling of
the SPP is required, it will be done so with reference to existing holdings at the record date, being 30
September 2020. Serko can accept oversubscriptions at its discretion.
The SPP Offer Document, together with an application form, will be sent to eligible retail Serko
shareholders today and can be found online at www.serkoshareoffer.com. Given the present
uncertainties with respect to postal deliveries, shareholders wishing to apply for new shares under the
SPP are encouraged to do so online.
The new shares to be issued under the SPP will rank equally in all respects with Serko's existing
ordinary shares.
Key dates relating to the SPP are set out in the Appendix to this announcement.
A copy of the SPP Offer Booklet accompanies this announcement.
Craigs Investment Partners Limited and Ord Minnett Limited acted as Joint Bookrunners and
Underwriters and Craigs Investment Partners Limited and Cameron Partners Limited (New Zealand
global alliance partner of Rothschild & Co.) acted as Joint Arrangers for the Offer. Serko's legal
advisers are Russell McVeagh and Herbert Smith Freehills.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
This document has been prepared by Serko in connection with an offer of new ordinary Shares under a share purchase plan ("SPP" or
"Offer").
In New Zealand, the Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders under the exclusion in clause 19 of Schedule 1 of the Financial Markets
Conduct Act 2013 ("FMCA") and in reliance on a class waiver and ruling issued by NZX Regulation dated 30 September ("Class Waiver")
and a waiver issued by NZX Regulation in favour of Serko dated 30 September 2020 ("Serko Waiver") (together, the "NZX Waivers").
The effect of the NZX Waivers in the context of the Offer is to amend, on a temporary basis, the definition of Share Purchase Plan
under the NZX Listing Rules to permit Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for up to NZ$50,000 worth of Shares under the SPP despite
having participated in Serko’s share purchase plan conducted in October 2019.
In Australia, the Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders in accordance with the relief granted under ASIC Instrument 20-0909 ("ASIC
Instrument") and ASIC Corporations (Share and Interest Purchase Plans) Instrument 2019/547 as amended by the ASIC Instrument
("ASIC Relief"). The ASIC Instrument permits (among other things) Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for up to NZ$50,000 worth of
Shares under the SPP despite having participated in Serko’s share purchase plan conducted in October 2019.
This document is not a product disclosure statement or prospectus or other disclosure document for the purposes of the FMCA or
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) or any other law, and does not contain all of the information which may be required in order to make an
informed investment decision about the Shares, the Offer or Serko.
FURTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
A presentation providing further important information in relation to Serko and the Offer has been published by Serko on 1 October
2020 (the "Investor Presentation"). A copy of the Investor Presentation and other important information released on 1 October 2020
are available at www.nzx.com and www.asx.com.au under the ticker code "SKO".
The Investor Presentation includes details of the rationale for the Offer. It also provides a trading update and explains in more detail
the expected impact of the Offer, including a non-exhaustive summary of certain key risks associated with Serko and the Offer.
You should read the Investor Presentation in full, as it contains important information to assist you in making an investment decision in
respect of the Offer. In particular, you should read and consider the information under the heading “Key Risks” in the Appendix of the
Investor Presentation before making an investment decision.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Serko is subject to continuous disclosure obligations under the NZX Listing Rules and the ASX Listing Rules. Market releases by Serko
are available at www.nzx.com and www.asx.com.au under ticker code SKO. You are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on
any forward-looking statements such as indications of, and guidance on, future earnings and financial position and performance in any
market releases made by Serko, particularly in light of the current economic climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty and
disruption caused by the outbreak of COVID-19.
Serko may, during the Offer, make additional releases to NZX and ASX. Shareholders should monitor Serko's market announcements
during the period of the Offer. Subject to applicable law, no release by Serko to NZX or ASX will permit an applicant to withdraw any
previously submitted application without Serko's consent, whether or not there has been any permissible variation of the Offer.
The market price for the Shares may change between the date this Offer opens, the date you apply for Shares under the Offer, and the
date on which the Shares are allotted to you. This is particularly the case given the wide fluctuations and volatility in share prices for
many listed companies in recent times due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19. Accordingly:
• the price paid for Shares under the Offer may be higher or lower than the price at which Shares are trading on the NZX or
the ASX at the time shares are issued under the Offer;
• the market price of new Shares following allotment may be higher or lower than the Issue Price; and
• it is possible that up to or after the allotment of the new Shares, you may be able to buy Shares at a lower price than the
Issue Price.

Dear Serko Shareholder
SERKO LIMITED – SHARE PURCHASE PLAN
On behalf of the board of directors of Serko Limited ("Serko"), I am pleased to provide Eligible Shareholders the opportunity to
subscribe for new ordinary shares ("Shares") in Serko through this Share Purchase Plan ("SPP"). Eligible Shareholders are all persons
who were recorded in Serko’s share register at 8:00pm NZT on 30 September 2020 as being a holder of Serko Shares and having an
address in New Zealand or Australia.
The SPP is part of Serko’s equity raising initiative announced on 1 October 2020, whereby Serko undertook a fully underwritten
NZ$47.5 million placement of Shares to institutional and other select investors at the price determined in the bookbuild of NZ$4.55 per
Share (the "Placement"). Serko is seeking to raise up to NZ$10 million under the SPP, however, Serko can elect to accept
oversubscriptions at its absolute discretion. The proceeds from the equity raise will be used to:
• Accelerate the development of our globally scalable, localised travel platform, allowing us to be well positioned for recovery
as business travel increases. Serko is progressively scaling-up to bring the power of Zeno to the global market.
• Support increased demand for customer and reseller onboarding to drive volume across all markets, particularly in Europe
and North America.
• Expand the breadth and depth of content channels across all markets, responding to new and changing business traveler
needs.
• Enhance customer experience functionality for changing market requirements.
• Continue to scale the technology platform for international expansion.
• Fund small M&A growth opportunities, aligned to strategy, if and when they arise.
• Provide Serko with additional balance sheet flexibility to respond to changes in the business environment.
The board considers that it is important to offer an SPP to all eligible New Zealand and Australian shareholders of Serko to enable
them to participate in the capital raising and acquire new Serko Shares at the same price or lower than the Placement. Each Eligible
Shareholder may elect to subscribe for up to NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 of Serko Shares, in share parcels which are multiples of NZ$1,000 /
A$930, subject to scaling. This is the maximum amount currently permitted under the NZX Listing Rules, as increased by the Class
Waiver. Serko was also issued a specific waiver by NZX Regulation to enable Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for the maximum
amount of Shares under the SPP currently permitted by the Class Waiver, despite having participated in Serko's share purchase plan
conducted in October 2019. Serko has also obtained ASIC Relief to allow Australian investors to participate up to the same amount.
The price per Share under the SPP will be the lower of NZ$4.55, being the price paid by investors in Serko’s recent Placement, or the
five-day VWAP during the last five trading days prior to, and including, the SPP Closing Date. Furthermore, the SPP provides Eligible
Shareholders the opportunity to purchase additional Shares in Serko without incurring brokerage or other transaction costs.
Details of the SPP, including terms and conditions of the SPP and an explanation of how you can participate, are contained in this
document and the Application Form. All documents relating to the SPP as well as the Investor Presentation and other important
information released on 1 October 2020 are available online at www.serkoshareoffer.com. We encourage you to read these
documents carefully before you decide whether to participate. Given the present uncertainties with respect to postal timing, we
encourage all shareholders that wish to do so to apply online. Please note that if the SPP is oversubscribed, applications will be scaled
back on a proportionate basis in accordance with the number of Serko Shares held by the Applicant on the Record Date (being
8:00pm on 30 September 2020).
We also suggest that you seek financial, investment or other professional advice before making an investment decision.
7
If you wish to participate in the SPP, you must ensure that your Application Form (and, if you are a Custodian as defined in clause 4.1 of
the Terms and Conditions, your Custodian Certificate), is completed allowing sufficient time for it to be received by 5:00pm NZT on 22
October 2020. Online applications or Application Forms returned by mail must be received by Serko’s Share Registrar, Link Market
Services Limited, no later than 5:00pm NZT on 22 October 2020. Shares under the SPP are expected to be allotted on or around 29
October 2020, unless the Closing Date is extended.
On behalf of the board, please consider this opportunity and we sincerely thank you for your ongoing support of Serko.
Yours sincerely
Claudia Batten
Chairman
Serko Limited

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
DEFINED WORDS AND EXPRESSIONS USED IN
THIS SHARE PURCHASE PLAN ARE
CAPITALISED - SEE THE GLOSSARY FOR THEIR
DEFINITION. THESE QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS ARE A SUMMARY ONLY AND YOU
SHOULD REFER TO THE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.
1. WHAT IS THE SHARE PURCHASE PLAN?
The SPP allows Eligible Shareholders to purchase Shares in
Serko without incurring brokerage or other transaction costs.
You are eligible to participate in the SPP if you are a
shareholder of Serko and:
a) you were registered as a holder of fully paid Shares
at 8:00pm NZT on the Record Date, which is 30
September 2020;
b) your registered address is in New Zealand or
Australia;
c) you are not in the United States and you are not
acting for the account or benefit of a person in the
United States (or in the event that you are acting
for the account or benefit of a person in the United
States, you are not applying for, or acquiring, any
Shares for the account or benefit of that person);
and
d) you do not hold the Shares on behalf of another
person who resides outside of New Zealand or
Australia.
2. WHAT IS THE PRICE OF THE SHARES AND
HOW MANY CAN I PURCHASE?
The Issue Price will be the lower of:
• NZ$4.55, being the price paid by investors in
Serko’s recent Placement (representing a 0.9%
premium to the closing price of Serko Shares on
the NZX of NZ$4.51 on 30 September 2020); or
• the five day VWAP during the last five trading days
prior to, and including, the SPP Closing Date.
The Issue Price determined above is a New Zealand dollar
amount. If you apply for an Australian dollar amount of
Shares, Serko will convert the New Zealand dollar Issue Price
to Australian dollars at the NZ$:A$ exchange rate published
by the New Zealand Reserve Bank on its website at 7:00pm
NZT on the Closing Date. The market price of the Shares
may change between the Opening Date, the date you apply
for Shares under the SPP, and the Allotment Date. The risks
associated with this potential market fluctuation are described
in question 6 below.
Eligible Shareholders may elect to purchase parcels of Shares
in multiples of NZ$1,000 / A$930 up to a maximum of
NZ$50,000 / A$46,500, subject to scaling. If you apply for an
Australian dollar amount of Shares and the exchange rate
varies such that the dollar amount you applied for exceeds
the NZ$50,000 regulatory limit, Shares having a total issue
price equal to NZ$50,000 will be issued to you and you will be
refunded the excess cash amount.
If you wish to participate in the SPP, you should complete the
Application Form in accordance with the instructions set out
in question 7 below and elect a payment method, for the
value of the amount applied for on the Application Form. If
you are a Custodian, you will also need to complete and
lodge together with your Application Form a Custodian
Certificate. To determine whether you are a Custodian, and
how to obtain a Custodian Certificate, refer to clause 4 of the
Terms and Conditions.
Serko is inviting applications for up to NZ$10 million in
aggregate under the SPP, with the ability for Serko to accept
oversubscriptions at its absolute discretion.
Serko reserves the right to, at its absolute discretion, scale any
application for Shares under the SPP. If Serko receives
applications in excess of $10 million (plus the total amount of
oversubscriptions accepted by Serko, if any), Serko may scale
back all applications on a proportionate basis in accordance
with the number of Serko Shares held by the Applicant (or, in
the case of an application made by a Custodian, the relevant
beneficial owner(s) named in the schedule submitted with the
Application Form) on the Record Date. If your application is
scaled back by Serko, your application monies will be greater
than the value of the new Shares you will be allotted at the
Issue Price and a refund will be issued in accordance with
clause 6 of the Terms and Conditions. The board of Serko
believes this is the most equitable manner in which to deal
with applications in excess of the funds required under the
SPP.
Any fractional Shares allocated under the SPP will be rounded
down to the nearest whole number of Shares.
3. WHAT RIGHTS WILL THE SHARES HAVE?
All Shares issued under the SPP will be ordinary Shares of
Serko, ranking equally with existing Shares quoted on the
NZX and ASX with the same voting rights and other
entitlements. Specifically, Eligible Shareholders who subscribe
under the SPP will be eligible to participate in any future
dividends to be declared by Serko.
4. WHAT IF I OWN SHARES THROUGH A
TRUSTEE OR CUSTODIAN OR OWN
SHARES IN MORE THAN ONE CAPACITY?
If you own Shares through a trustee or Custodian, then
subject to certain certification requirements and other
conditions, you may instruct the trustee or Custodian to
purchase Shares on your behalf, up to the NZ$50,000 /
9
A$46,500 limit. If you own Shares through a trustee or
Custodian and also own Shares in your own name, then you
may either purchase Shares yourself or instruct your trustee
or Custodian to purchase Shares on your behalf. You may
not do both.
If you receive more than one copy of this document, or if you
hold Shares in more than one capacity (e.g. because you are
both a sole and joint holder of Shares), the maximum amount
you may apply to invest under the SPP in all capacities, and in
aggregate, is NZ$50,000 / A$46,500. You may not purchase
some Shares on your own behalf and some Shares as a joint
holder. By applying to purchase Shares under the SPP, you
represent that you have not exceeded this NZ$50,000 /
A$46,500 limit.
If you are an Eligible Shareholder and hold Shares as
Custodian, you may apply for up to NZ$50,000 / A$46,500
worth of new Shares for each beneficiary for whom you,
directly or indirectly, act as Custodian provided that you
complete, and submit, together with the Application Form, a
certificate (Custodian Certificate) certifying each of the
matters set out in clause 4.4 of the Terms and Conditions of
this SPP.
5. IS THIS OFFER TRANSFERABLE TO
ANOTHER PERSON?
No. This Offer is personal to you and non-renounceable, so if
you elect not to purchase any Shares under the SPP you may
not transfer your right to purchase Shares under the SPP to
anyone else.
6. WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF INVESTING IN
THE SPP AND WHAT IF I CHOOSE NOT TO
PARTICIPATE IN THE SPP?
The events relating to COVID-19 have recently resulted in
significant market falls and volatility in New Zealand, Australia
and overseas, including the prices of securities traded on NZX
and ASX.
The market price for the Shares may change between the
date this Offer opens, the date you apply for Shares under
the Offer, and the date on which the Shares are allotted to
you. This is particularly the case given the wide fluctuations
and volatility in share prices for many listed companies in
recent times due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19.
Accordingly:
• the price paid for Shares under the Offer may be
higher or lower than the price at which Shares are
trading on the NZX or the ASX at the time shares
are issued under the Offer;
• the market price of new Shares following allotment
may be higher or lower than the Issue Price; and
• it is possible that up to or after the allotment of the
new Shares, you may be able to buy Shares at a
lower price than the Issue Price.
The Share price is quoted on the NZX website: www.nzx.com
and ASX website: www.asx.com.au under the ticker code
"SKO".
Eligible Shareholders may choose to subscribe for up to
NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 of Shares pursuant to the SPP, subject
to any scaling. While Serko has attempted to make the Offer
as fair as possible for Eligible Shareholders by providing for
the individual application cap to be NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 of
Shares (as modified by the NZX Waivers and the ASIC Relief),
and by providing that any scaling will be in reference to
individual shareholdings at 8:00pm NZT on the Record Date,
the Offer is not in accordance with your proportionate
shareholding. Even if you participate in the Offer, your
shareholding in Serko may change. Large shareholders may
not be able to obtain sufficient Shares to maintain their
percentage shareholding, while smaller shareholders may be
able to increase their percentage shareholding. If you do not
subscribe for any Shares under the SPP, and other
shareholders do subscribe for Shares, then your percentage
shareholding in Serko will be reduced.
You should:
a) seek your own financial advice in relation to this
Offer and your participation under the Offer; and
b) read the Investor Presentation in full, as it contains
important information to assist you in making an
investment decision in respect of the Offer. In
particular, you should read and consider the
information under the heading “Key Risks” in the
Appendix of the Investor Presentation before
making an investment decision.
7. HOW DO I APPLY FOR SHARES UNDER THE
SPP?
If you wish to participate in the SPP, you can do so online at
www.serkoshareoffer.com. Alternatively, please follow the
step-by-step instructions set out on the reverse of the
enclosed personalised Application Form. If you are not
applying online, return your completed Application Form
(and, if applicable, your Custodian Certificate) with your
payment to the Share Registrar so that it is received by
5:00pm NZT on the Closing Date (22 October 2020). Please
allow adequate time for mail deliveries to be received.
Applications received after the 5:00pm NZX on the Closing

2. ELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERS
2.1. You may participate in the SPP if you are an Eligible Shareholder. You are not eligible to participate in the SPP if you are in the
United States or are acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States. If you are acting for the account or
benefit of a person in the United States, you are not permitted to apply for or acquire Shares for, or for the account or benefit
of, that person. Joint holders of Shares are taken to be a single registered holder of Shares for the purposes of determining
whether they are an Eligible Shareholder and the certification on the Application Form is taken to have been given by all of
them.
2.2. If you are an Eligible Shareholder, your rights under this Offer are personal to you and non-renounceable, so you may not
transfer them.
2.3. Serko accepts no liability where an Eligible Shareholder does not receive an Application Form, or does not receive the
Application Form in time.
12
3. ISSUE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES
3.1. The Issue Price for Shares under the SPP is the lower of:
(a) NZ$4.55, being the price payable by investors in Serko’s recent Placement (representing a 0.9% premium to the closing
price of Serko Shares on NZX of NZ$4.51 on 30 September 2020); or
(b) the five day VWAP during the last five trading days prior to, and including, the SPP Closing Date.
3.2. Eligible Shareholders may elect to purchase parcels of Shares in multiples of NZ$1,000 / A$930 up to a maximum of
NZ$50,000 / A$46,500, subject to scaling, by filling in the appropriate box on the Application Form. Any fractional Shares
allocated under the SPP will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares.
3.3. The Issue Price is a New Zealand dollar amount. If you apply for an Australian dollar amount of Shares, Serko will first convert
the Australian application amount to New Zealand dollars to determine the application amount is within the NZ$50,000 cap at
the A$:NZ$ exchange rate published by the New Zealand Reserve Bank on its website at 7:00pm NZT on the Closing Date.
Serko will then convert the New Zealand dollar Issue Price to Australian dollars at the NZ$:A$ exchange rate published by the
New Zealand Reserve Bank on its website at 7:00pm NZT on the Closing Date. The market price of the Shares may change
between the Opening Date, the date you apply for Shares under the SPP, and the Allotment Date.
3.4. If you apply for an Australian dollar amount of Shares and the exchange rate varies such that the dollar amount you applied
for exceeds the NZ$50,000 regulatory limit, Shares having a total issue price equal to NZ$50,000 (rounded to the nearest
whole share) will be issued to you and you will be refunded the excess cash amount.
3.5. Eligible Shareholders may only make a single application for Shares under the SPP. This applies to all Eligible Shareholders,
including those who receive more than one offer under the SPP (for example, because they hold Shares in more than one
capacity) and including whether the Eligible Shareholder is applying through a Custodian or on his or her own behalf.
Accordingly, if you own Shares through a trustee or Custodian and also own Shares in your own name, then you may either
purchase Shares yourself or instruct your trustee or Custodian to purchase Shares on your behalf. You may not do both.
3.6. Serko is inviting applications for up to NZ$10 million in aggregate under the SPP, with discretion for Serko to accept
oversubscriptions at its absolute discretion. If Serko receives applications in excess of NZ$10 million (plus the total amount of
oversubscriptions accepted by Serko, if any), Serko reserves the right to scale back all applications on a proportionate basis in
accordance with the number of Serko Shares held by the Applicant (or, in the case of an application made by a Custodian, the
relevant beneficial owner(s) named in the schedule submitted with the Application Form) on the Record Date. The board of
Serko believes this is the most equitable manner in which to deal with applications in excess of the funds required under the
SPP.
3.7. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Serko, the Joint Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners and Underwriters and each of
their respective related bodies corporate and affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees,
representatives and agents, disclaim all liability, including for negligence, for any failure to obtain any particular exchange rate,
or any movements in exchange rates, if exchanging the New Zealand Issue Price of Shares into Australian dollars. The Joint
Arrangers, the Joint Lead Bookrunners and Underwriters and Serko reserve the right to allocate entitlements to Shares under
the SPP at their discretion.
4. CUSTODIANS
4.1. Under the SPP, a Custodian is any Eligible Shareholder:
(a) in the case of any Eligible Shareholder having a registered address in New Zealand, that:
(i) is a trustee corporation or a nominee company and holds Shares in Serko by reason only of acting for another person
in the ordinary course of business of that trustee corporation or nominee company; or
(ii) holds Shares in Serko by reason only of being a bare trustee of a trust to which the Shares are subject.
(b) in the case of any Eligible Shareholder having a registered address in Australia, provides a custodial or depository service
in relation to shares of Serko and who:
(i) holds an Australian financial services licence covering the provision of a custodial or depository service;
(ii) is exempt from the requirement to hold an Australian financial services licence covering the provision of a custodial or
depository service;
(iii) holds an Australian financial services licence covering the operation of an IDPS (as defined in ASIC Class Order
CO/13/763) or is a responsible entity of an IDPS-like scheme (as defined in ASIC Class Order CO 13/762);
(iv) is a trustee of a self-managed superannuation fund or a superannuation master trust; or
(v) is a registered holder of Shares and is noted on the register of members of Serko as holding the Shares on account of
another person.
4.2. Custodians may apply to purchase Shares for an amount greater than NZ$50,000/ A$46,500, provided that the Custodian only
applies for no more Shares than collectively have an aggregate application price of NZ$50,000/ A$46,500 for each beneficial
owner for whom the Custodian acts as a Custodian. Each beneficial owner may only direct the Custodian to apply on behalf
of that beneficial owner for a single share parcel.
13
4.3. Custodians must confirm to Serko that they are holding Shares as a Custodian for one or more beneficial owners and certify
the matters described in clause 4.4 below by providing a Custodian Certificate together with the Custodian’s Application Form.
To request a Custodian Certificate, or if you would like further information on how to apply for Shares as a Custodian, you
should contact Serko’s Share Registrar, Link Market Services Limited, at any time from 8:30am to 5:00pm NZT (Monday to
Friday) prior to the Closing Date on 22 October 2020.
4.4. If a Custodian applies to purchase Shares on behalf of one or more beneficial owners, the Custodian must certify to Serko in
writing the following matters in the form and manner set out in the Custodian Certificate (available on request from the Share
Registrar):
(a) that the Custodian held Shares on behalf of:
(i) one or more other persons that are not Custodians; and /or
(ii) another Custodian (Downstream Custodian) that holds beneficial interests in Shares on behalf of one or more other
persons to which those interests relate, on 30 September 2020 at 8:00pm NZT (each, a Participating Beneficiary) who
have subsequently instructed the Custodian, and/or the Downstream Custodian, to apply for Shares under the SPP on
their behalf;
(b) the number of Participating Beneficiaries and their names and addresses;
(c) the number of Shares that the Custodian holds on behalf of each Participating Beneficiary;
(d) the dollar amount of Shares that each Participating Beneficiary has instructed the Custodian, either directly or indirectly
through a Downstream Custodian, to apply for on their behalf;
(e) that there are no Participating Beneficiaries in respect of which the total of the application price for the following exceeds
NZ$50,000 / A$46,500:
(i) the application price for new Shares applied for on their behalf under the SPP; and
(ii) the application price for any other Shares issued to the Custodian (as a result of an instruction given to the Custodian
or a Downstream Custodian) for that Participating Beneficiary under any arrangement similar to the SPP in the 12
months prior to the application for new Shares under the SPP (other than under Serko’s share purchase plan
conducted in October 2019, which is to be disregarded in accordance with the terms of the ASIC Instrument and the
Serko Waiver);
(f) that a copy of this document was given to each Participating Beneficiary;
(g) where the Custodian holds Shares on behalf of a Participating Beneficiary indirectly, through one or more Downstream
Custodians, the name and address of each Downstream Custodian; and
(h) that the beneficial owner on whose behalf the Custodian is submitting an Application Form is not making an application as
an Eligible Shareholder for Shares under the SPP, and no other Custodian is submitting an Application Form under the
SPP for that beneficial owner.
4.5. Custodians are not permitted to participate in the SPP on behalf of, and must not distribute this document or any documents
(including the Application Form) relating to this SPP to, any person in the United States. In the event that a Custodian is acting
for the account or benefit of a person in the United States, it is not permitted to participate in respect of that person.

6. SERKO’S DISCRETION TO ACCEPT, REJECT OR SCALE BACK APPLICATIONS
6.1. Serko has discretion to accept or reject your Application Form to purchase Shares under the SPP, including (without limitation)
if:
(a) your Application Form or Custodian Certificate (if applicable) is incorrectly completed or incomplete or otherwise
determined by Serko to be invalid;
(b) your payment is dishonoured or has not been completed correctly;
(c) the cheque that you enclose with your Application Form (and, if applicable, Custodian Certificate) is not denominated in
New Zealand dollars or Australian dollars, for the amount you have applied for on the Application Form;
(d) it appears that you are applying to buy more than NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 (in aggregate) of Shares (except if you are a
Custodian applying on behalf of more than one beneficial owners in accordance with clause 4.2);
(e) your Application Form, Custodian Certificate (if applicable) or payment is received after the Closing Date. While Serko has
discretion to accept late Application Forms, Custodian Certificates (if applicable) and payments, there is no assurance that
it will do so. Late Application Forms, Custodian Certificates (if applicable) and payments, if not processed, will be returned
to you at your registered address. No interest will be paid on any application money returned to you;
(f) Serko believes that you are not an Eligible Shareholder or Custodian; or
(g) Serko considers that your application does not comply with these Terms and Conditions.
6.2. Serko reserves the right to scale back at its absolute discretion any application for Shares under the SPP. If Serko receives
applications in excess of NZ$10 million (plus the total amount of oversubscriptions accepted by Serko, if any), Serko may scale
back all applications on a proportionate basis in accordance with the number of Serko Shares held by the Applicant (or, in the
case of an application made by a Custodian, the relevant beneficial owner(s) named in the schedule submitted with the
Application Form) on the Record Date. The board of Serko believes this is the most equitable manner in which to deal with
applications in excess of the funds required under the SPP.
6.3. If an application is rejected, all of the relevant amounts will be refunded to the Applicant. If applications are scaled back, the
Applicant will receive the number of Shares at the Issue Price in respect of which the application is accepted and a refund of
the balance of the relevant application payment. All refunds will be made without interest.
6.4. Refunds will either be made by direct credit to the bank account held by Serko’s Share Registrar, Link Market Services Limited,
or by a cheque payable to the relevant Applicant in their name(s), which will be posted to the address set out in the
Application Form. Refunds will be issued within five business days following the Allotment Date.
7. SIGNIFICANCE OF SENDING IN AN APPLICATION / REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS
7.1. If you apply to participate in the SPP by completing and returning the Application Form either by mail or online (and, if
applicable a Custodian Certificate), you will be deemed to make the following representations, warranties and agreements:
(a) you have received, read and understood this document (including the "Important Information" section) and the Investor

(c) you certify to Serko that you are an Eligible Shareholder entitled to apply for Shares under these Terms and Conditions;
(d) you agree to be bound by the Constitution of Serko;
(e) you certify that your acceptance of the Offer will not be, or cause, a breach of any law in any jurisdiction;
(f) you certify to Serko that you are not applying for Shares under the SPP with an application price in excess of NZ$50,000/
A$46,500, even though you may have received more than one offer under the SPP or received offers in more than one
capacity under the SPP;
(g) without limiting Serko's discretion to accept or reject applications in clause 6 above, you authorise Serko (and its officers or

(h) you acknowledge that Serko may at any time irrevocably determine that your Application Form (and, if applicable, your
Custodian Certificate) is valid, in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, even if the Application Form (or, as
applicable, your Custodian Certificate) is incomplete, contains errors or is otherwise defective;
(i) you accept the risk associated with any refund that may be despatched to you by cheque to your address shown on
Serko’s share register;
(j) you agree to indemnify Serko for, and to pay to Serko within five business days of demand, any dishonour fees or other

advice, and that none of them has an obligation to provide advice concerning your decision to apply for and purchase
Shares under the SPP;
16
(l) you acknowledge the risk that the market price for the Shares may change between the Opening Date, the date you apply
for Shares under the SPP, and the Allotment Date. This is particularly the case given the wide fluctuations and volatility in
the share prices for many listed companies in recent times due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19. Accordingly, you
acknowledge that:
(i) the price paid for Shares may be higher or lower than the price at which Shares are trading on the NZX or the ASX at
the time Shares are issued under the Offer;
(ii) the market price of Shares following allotment may be higher or lower than the Issue Price;
(iii) it is possible that up to or after the Allotment Date, you may be able to buy Shares at a lower price than the Issue
Price; and
(iv) a change in the market price of Shares prior to the Issue Price being determined may affect the Issue Price;
(m) you acknowledge that Serko is not liable for any exercise of its discretions referred to in these Terms and Conditions;
(n) you are not in the United States and are not acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (or in the
event that you are acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States, you are not applying for, or
acquiring, any Shares for the account or benefit of that person);
(o) you understand and acknowledge that the Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act
or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States, and accordingly, the Shares may not be
offered, sold or otherwise transferred, directly or indirectly, in the United States, or to any person acting for the account or
benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person is acting for the account or benefit of a person in the
United States);
(p) you have not, and will not, send this document or any materials relating to the SPP to any person in the United States;
(q) if in the future you decide to sell or otherwise transfer the Shares, you will only do so in regular way for transactions on the
NZX or the ASX where neither you nor any person acting on your behalf know, or have reason to know, that the sale has
been pre-arranged with, or that the purchaser is, a person in the United States;
(r) if you are acting as a trustee, nominee or Custodian, each beneficial holder on whose behalf you are applying for and
acquiring Shares is resident in New Zealand or Australia and is not in the United States; and
(s) you irrevocably and unconditionally agree to these Terms and Conditions and agree not to do any act or thing which
would be contrary to the spirit, intention or purpose of the SPP.
7.2. If a Custodian applies to purchase Shares under the SPP for a beneficial owner pursuant to clause 4.2:
(a) the certification referred to in clause 7.1(f) will be taken to be given by the beneficial owner on whose behalf the Custodian
is applying to purchase Shares; and
(b) in addition to the matters referred to in clause 7.1, the Custodian also certifies each of the matters set out in the Custodian
Certificate.
8. THE SHARES
8.1. Shares issued under the SPP will rank equally in all respects with, and have the same voting rights, dividend rights and other
entitlements as, existing Shares quoted on the NZX and ASX. The Shares to be issued under the SPP have been accepted for
quotation on the NZX and ASX and it is expected that the Shares will be quoted upon completion of the allotment
procedures. However, neither NZX Limited nor ASX Limited accepts any responsibility for any statement in this document.
8.2. The issue of new Shares under the SPP up to a maximum value of NZ$50,000 per Eligible Shareholder (or per beneficial
owner, in the case of holdings held by Custodians) in New Zealand, is being undertaken pursuant to NZX Listing Rule 4.3.1
(Share Purchase Plan) as modified by the NZX Waivers, which, among other things, increased the maximum consideration
payable for equity securities in an SPP to NZ$50,000 per registered holder.
8.3. The issue of new Shares under the SPP up to a maximum value of NZ$50,000 per Eligible Shareholder (or per beneficial
owner, in the case of holdings by Custodians) in Australia, is being undertaken pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Share and
Interest Purchase Plans) Instrument 2019/547 as amended by ASIC Instrument 20-0909, which among other things increased
the maximum consideration payable for equity securities in the SPP to NZ$50,000 per registered holder.
9. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

10.1. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the SPP and/or the Application Form, Serko may, at its discretion:
17
(a) make non-material modifications to the SPP or these Terms and Conditions without notice (in which case applications for
Shares under the SPP will remain binding on all Applicants notwithstanding such modification and irrespective of whether
an Application Form was received by Link Market Services Limited, before or after such modification is made); and/or
(b) suspend or terminate the SPP at any time prior to the issue of the Shares under the SPP. If the SPP is terminated,
application monies will be refunded to Applicants without interest.
10.2. Serko reserves the right to waive compliance with any provision of these Terms and Conditions (either generally, or in
respect of a particular Applicant or Applicants).
11. GOVERNING LAW
11.1. These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Zealand.
12. DISPUTES
12.1. If any dispute arises in connection with the SPP, Serko may settle it in any manner it thinks fit. It may do so generally or in
relation to any particular participant, application or Share. Serko’s decision will be final and binding.
13. INCONSISTENCY
13.1. Unless otherwise determined by the directors of Serko, in the event of any inconsistency between the Terms and Conditions of
the SPP and Serko’s constitution, Serko’s constitution shall prevail.
