Wellington Drive Technologies Limited (WDT) – Price Enquiry


Dear John,


We write with respect to the continuous disclosure obligations set out in the Listing Rules (Rules).

Listing Rule 3.1.1 (”the rule”) is set out in the Schedule attached to this letter. In summary, this

rule requires issuers to immediately disclose any Material Information to NZX Limited (“NZ

RegCo”). The rule provides limited exceptions to this obligation. Material Information does not

need to be disclosed where a reasonable person would not expect the information to be disclosed

and where the information is confidential and its confidentiality is maintained and where one of five

safe harbours applies.


The price of WDT has increased from $0.124, being the market close price on 30 September 2021,

to $0.162, being the market close price yesterday, 11 October 2021. This represents a gain of

30.6% month-to-date.


Given this price increase, please advise NZ RegCo whether WDT continues to comply with Listing

Rule 3.1.1.


We would appreciate if you could provide NZ RegCo with an answer to the above question (email:

surveillance@nzregco.com) before 1:00pm Tuesday, 12 October 2021.


Please provide your response to this letter in “PDF” format, and note that it will be published in full

to the market.


Kind Regards,





Phil Solarz

Dear Phil


Re: Wellington Drive Technologies Limited (WDT) – Price Enquiry


We write in response to NZ RegCo’s letter to WDT dated 12 October 2021. The letter noted an increase in

WDT’s share price of 30.6% from the closing price on 30 September to the closing price on 11 October and

sought advice whether WDT continued to comply with Listing Rule 3.1.1.


WDT advises it has reviewed all information of which it is aware and that it continues to comply with Listing

Rule 3.1.1.




Yours sincerely
