Issue under Air New Zealand Long Term Incentive Performance Rights Plan
In 2015, Air New Zealand Limited (AIR) (the Company) adopted a new Long Term Incentive Performance
Rights Plan (the Plan).
The Company advises that it has issued 5,839,208 performance rights for no consideration to the Chief
Executive Officer and selected executives under the Plan. The performance rights were issued on 4

The performance rights issued under the Plan give participants the right to receive ordinary shares in the
Company subject to certain vesting conditions being met on or after 15 September 2023. The vesting of
performance rights is subject to the Company’s share price outperforming a comparison index made up
50:50 between the NZX All Index and the Bloomberg World Airline Index over a three year measurement
period from the date of issue. In particular:
(a) 50% of performance rights will vest if the Company’s share price has matched the index over the
measurement period; and
(b) for each 1% the share price outperforms the index, a further 2.5% of performance rights will vest
until reaching the maximum 100%.
If the share price does not match the index on the third anniversary of the issue date, there will be a
further six-month opportunity for the performance rights to vest.
