Air New Zealand launches comprehensive recapitalisation package including
pro rata renounceable rights offer
Air New Zealand is launching a comprehensive NZ$2.2 billion recapitalisation package
to help position the airline for recovery. The recapitalisation has been sized with a view
to maintaining Air New Zealand’s investment grade credit rating (Moody’s Baa2 –
stable outlook) and to support the execution of Air New Zealand’s strategic priorities.
The package includes a $1.2 billion pro rata renounceable Rights Offer, allowing
eligible shareholders an opportunity to buy additional shares in Air New Zealand at a
discount relative to the prevailing share price.
Air New Zealand Chair Dame Therese Walsh, said: “While there will still be bumpy
skies ahead over the next few years, the moment is right for Air New Zealand to raise
equity, recapitalise its balance sheet and repay the loan it received from the Crown
during the Covid crisis. This is an important step in refuelling for our recovery. The
Rights Offer we are launching today is structured to provide all eligible Air New
Zealand shareholders with a fair opportunity to participate.”
Details of the recapitalisation package
Air New Zealand’s recapitalisation comprises:
• A pro rata renounceable rights offer of ordinary shares to Eligible Shareholders
to raise NZ$1.2 billion (Rights Offer). The Crown has committed to supporting
the Rights Offer and will participate in the Offer to ensure it holds a 51%
shareholding in Air New Zealand on completion of the Rights Offer. The Rights
Offer, other than the Crown participation, is underwritten
• NZ$600m of redeemable shares to be issued to the Crown under the existing
subscription agreement previously announced on 14 December 2021
(Redeemable Shares)
• A new committed unsecured 4 year Crown Loan of NZ$400 million (New Crown
Loan)

Air New Zealand updates FY22 loss guidance
On 24 February 2022, Air New Zealand announced with its FY2022 interim results that
its expectation at that time was that the 2022 financial year will incur a loss before
taxation and other significant items that exceeds $800 million.
Air New Zealand has seen some benefits from the limited period of sales after the
Government’s recent announcement accelerating the plan to open New Zealand’s
borders, but a large degree of uncertainty remains.
Air New Zealand now expects its FY2022 full year result to be a loss before other
significant items and taxation of less than $800 million. Beyond FY2022, further losses
are expected to be incurred in the near-term with the amount of such losses subject to
the level and pace of the return of demand.
Renounceable Rights Offer

Rights purchased on the NZX may only be exercised by purchasers that meet eligibility requirements. In particular, rights may not
be exercised by purchasers that are in the United States or who are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United

Key dates related to the Offer can be found in the appendix.
Redeemable Shares and New Crown Loan
Air New Zealand has submitted a call notice to the Crown to issue $600 million of
Redeemable Shares, to be issued during the Rights Offer.
The total proceeds of the Rights Offer and the Redeemable Share issue will be used to
repay the $850 million outstanding under the existing Crown loan and $950 million
(less transaction costs) will be used to strengthen the airline’s balance sheet, improve
liquidity and help position Air New Zealand for recovery.
In addition, Air New Zealand intends to raise approximately $600 million through a debt
capital markets issuance, currently intended to be completed by 30 June 2022, subject
to market conditions. Upon successful completion, approximately $400 million of the
Redeemable Shares are intended to be repaid, leaving approximately $200 million of
the Redeemable Shares remaining on issue. Under the terms of the Redeemable
Shares, the Company cannot issue any further Redeemable Shares to the Crown after
the Rights Offer has been completed.
The $400 million New Crown Loan is not intended to be drawn and is available to
4
provide additional liquidity if required through the recovery period.
A summary of the key terms of the Redeemable Shares was previously announced on
14 December 2021.
A summary of the key terms of the New Crown Loan is as follows:
Duration Available until 30 January 2026
Availability Available to use from the close of the Rights Offer
subject to satisfaction of usual conditions.
Type of loan Unsecured committed revolving standby facility
Initial interest rate (once
drawn)
BKBM plus an initial margin of 1.50% per annum,
subject to certain performance / compliance-
based increases
Line fee 1.00% per annum on the facility limit of $400
million will be payable for the duration of the
facility, subject to certain reporting-based
increases
Dividend restriction Air New Zealand will be unable to pay dividends
on its ordinary shares (including the New Shares)
if it has drawn under this facility
Financial covenants There are no financial covenants
Representation Warranties
and Undertakings
Typical of such a facility, including regular
reporting on operational and financial
performance and there are additional reporting
and information requirements once the loan has
been drawn
NZX Waivers The entry into the New Crown Loan is being
undertaken without shareholder approval in
reliance on waivers from the NZX Listing Rules
5.1.1 and 5.2.1, granted by NZX Regulation on 30
March 2022. See
www.nzx.com/companies/AIR/announcements
Shareholder meeting late 2022 to ratify the entry into the Crown Loans
Air New Zealand obtained waivers from NZX Listing Rules 5.1.1 and 5.2.1 in
connection with the issuance of the Redeemable Shares and the existing Crown Loan
on 13 December 2021, and a further waiver from those NZX Listing Rules in
connection with the entry into the New Crown Loan on 30 March 2022.
There are certain conditions set out in those NZX waivers which mean that Air New
Zealand is required to call a shareholders’ meeting to ratify the entry into the existing
Crown Loan (if the Redeemable Shares or the existing Crown Loan remain in place at
the end of 2022) and the entry into the New Crown Loan (if it remains in place at the
end of 2022). Air New Zealand now expects that by the end of 2022, there will still be
some Redeemable Shares on issue and the New Crown Loan will still be in place. On
that basis, Air New Zealand expects to seek these necessary ratifications later in 2022.
The Crown has today confirmed to Air New Zealand its intention to vote in favour of
those ratification resolutions at such meeting.

Forward-looking statements (continued)
This also includes statements regarding the timetable, conduct and outcome of the Rights
Offer and the use of proceeds thereof, statements about the plans, objectives and
strategies of the management of the Company, statements about the industry and the
markets in which the Company operates, statements about the future performance of,
and outlook for, the Company's business (including its demand recovery), statements
about the Company’s fleet plans and passenger numbers, and statements in respect of
Covid-19 and of other significant events and conflicts around the world and their impact
on the Company. Any indications of, or guidance or outlook on, future earnings or
financial positionorperformanceandfuturedistributionsarealsoforward-looking
statements. All such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
significant uncertainties, assumptions, contingencies, and other factors, many of which
are outside the control of the Company, are difficult to predict, and which may cause the
actual results or performance of the Company to be materially different from any future
results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. Except as
required by law or regulation (including the NZX Listing Rules and the ASX Listing Rules),
the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements for
events or circumstances that occur subsequent to the date of this presentationorto
updateorkeepcurrentanyof theinformationcontainedherein.
Any estimates or projections as to events that may occur in the future (including
projections of revenue, capacity, ASK, RASK, EBITDA, ROIC, NPAT, gearing,
maintenance of credit rating, expense, earnings and performance) are based upon the
best judgement of the Company from the information available as of the date of this
presentation. A number of factors could cause actual results or performance to vary
materially from the projections, including the risk factors set out in this presentation.
Investors should consider the forward-looking statements in this presentation in light of
those risks and disclosures.
In particular, investors should be aware that the statements in slide 8 "Air New Zealand is
targeting the following post-pandemic recovery financial objectives" and other statements
and information regarding post-recovery financial objectives for the financial years to
FY25 (collectively, the "outlook information") are forward-looking statements. The outlook
information has been prepared by the Company based on an assessment of current
economic and operating conditions, including in relation to the impact of the Covid-19
pandemic on the Company’s business, the current conflict in Ukraine and its impact on
global fuel prices and potential to cause broader macro-economic impacts, and various
assumptions regarding future factors, events and actions, including in relation to travel
restrictions, the demand environment, fuel and foreign exchange pricing, the competitive
environment and general macro-economic drivers. Investors should note that given the
significant uncertainties that exist in the current operating conditions, the outlook
information may not be achieved. The outlook information assumes the success of the
Company’s business strategies, the success of which may not be realised within the
period for which the outlook information has been prepared, or at all. The outlook
information is subject to a number of risks, including the risks set out in this presentation.
Investors should be aware that the timing of actual events, including capacity and demand
recovery, the level of costs associated with that recovery, ASK trajectory and fleet outlook,
and the magnitude of their impact might differ from that assumed in preparing the outlook
information, which may have a material negative effect on the Company’s actual financial
performance, financial position and cash flows. In addition, the assumptions upon which
the outlook information is based are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies,
many of which are outside the Company’s control, are not reliably predictable, and it is not
reasonably possible to itemise each item. Accordingly, neither the Company nor any
other person can give investors assurance that the outcomes discussed in the outlook
information will be achieved.
Covid-19,itseffectontheglobaleconomyandactionstakenin responsebytheNew
Zealand Government and other governments around the world, have had, and may
continue to have, a material adverse effect on the Company, its financial performance and
position, liquidity, financial condition and operations. It is likely that there will be further
unforeseen negative impacts as Covid-19 continues to spread and further variants
emerge. In addition, the Covid-19 pandemic may have also changed behaviours, attitudes
and patterns of travel permanently as a result of the technological developments that have
occurred and restrictions that have been imposed.It is likelythattherewillbefurther
unforeseennegativeimpactsof Covid-19. In addition, the current conflict in Ukraine is
creating significant uncertainty and volatility in global fuel prices, and has recently driven
significant increases in prices. Increased fuel prices are likely to flow through global
supply chains and increase costs, particularly in respect of air travel and airfares, which
could further impact Air New Zealand's costs and demand for air travel. Investors should
not place undue reliance on assumptions that may change or proveto beinaccuratedue
to a rangeof factorsoutsideAir New Zealand'scontrol.
Investors are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-
looking statements, particularly in light of the rapidly changing Covid-19 situation,
current economic climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty anddisruption

impact on global fuelprices and potential to cause broader macro-economic
impacts.

Air New Zealand is targeting the following post-pandemic
financial objectives
1See Glossary starting on slide 36for definitions
2Retrospective restatements have been made to the FY19 financial information following IFRIC agenda decisions being published.See slide
15, footnote 2 for further details
3As a result of increased depreciation charges due to Air New Zealand’s aircraft-related capital expenditure program, NPAT may reduce below
FY25 levels in FY26
Targeted financial objectives to be read in conjunction with the Key Assumptions and summary of Key Risks set
out on slides 10 and 11
Investors are strongly cautioned to not place undue reliance on these targeted financial objectives, particularly in light ofthe ever-changing Covid-19 situation, the current economic
climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption caused by the pandemic, as well as the current conflict inUkraine and its impact on global fuel prices. Due to the
uncertainties going forward created by these factors, these targeted financial objectives should only be regarded as indicative of one possible outcome.
Capacity

for FY25 that are ~90% of FY19
levels (but with a re-orientated international capacity
and a greater proportion of domestic flying)

3Customer demand and therefore ASKs actually flown in future periods are subject to factors outside Air New Zealand’s control and, accordingly, this segment of the chart is intended to be indicative of various capacity scenarios that could apply through to the targeted
ASKs objective for FY25. The actual capacity scenario could be more variable than indicated, and the target for FY25 may not be reached.Investors should not infer from this segment of the chart that there will be a constant trend of ASKs growth over this period

assumptions
If actual events differ from any of the following Key Assumptions
1
, Air New Zealand’s post-pandemic recovery
could be impacted, including the airline’s ability to achieve its targeted FY25 post-pandemic financial objectives
as set out on slide 8
Key Assumptions underpinning Air New Zealand’s FY25 post-
pandemic financial objectives
•Domestic flying continues uninterrupted and
without restriction
•From the middle of calendar year 2022,
international travel (excluding China and
Hong Kong where international borders are
expected to remain closed) is uninterrupted,
with no self-isolation restrictions and testing
requirements easing for inbound and
outbound customers on Air New Zealand’s
key routes
•By FY25:
–aggregate passenger demand for
domestic, Tasman and Pacific Islands
travel will marginally exceed FY19 levels,
supported by network growth into those
markets; and
–aggregate passenger demand for long-
haul will be slightly lower than FY19
levels (due to fewer ASKs flown overall),
and have a more gradual pace of
recovery relative to short-haul markets
•No long-term structural changes in travel
behaviour or trends post-pandemic, including
resulting from environmental sustainability
concerns, health concerns related to Covid-
19, technological changes, or changes in
customer preference
•Until March 2023, the MIAC scheme
2
will
support cargo flight revenue to assist targeted
revenue recovery (noting the level of support
will reduce as passenger demand returns)
•The competitors that were present in FY19
will progressively re-enter the market
through to FY25, with capacity at levels
broadly similar to FY19 at that point
•Otherwise, no major changes in the
competitive environment or airfare pricing
on Air New Zealand’s key domestic and
international routes compared to FY19
The Covid-19 pandemic and conflict in the
Ukraine have caused volatility in financial
markets and added uncertainty to the outlook
for the New Zealand and global economies.
•Economic conditions improve progressively
to be generally consistent with the FY19
environment through to FY25
•Inflation in FY23 is 3.5%, progressively
reducing to 2.0% by FY25 (which is within
the RBNZ’s target inflation range of 1% and
3%)
–RBNZ’s target inflation range is a
standard market benchmark and will
not always align with Air New Zealand’s
cost base increases
Jet fuel prices are currently elevated due to the
conflict in Ukraine.
•Jet fuel price assumptions for FY22 take
into accountthe elevated prices observed
in the current calendar year, partially offset
by the benefit of the hedging Air New
Zealand has in place. Fuel prices are
assumed to progressively reduce to
~US$75 per barrel for FY24
4
•NZD / USD exchange rate of ~70 cents
from FY23 onwards
1As well as certain other factors outside of Air New Zealand’s control, including those identified on slide 11
2The New Zealand Government’s Maintaining International Air Connectivity (MIAC) scheme provides financial support to selected carriers, including Air New Zealand, when providing air services on key travel routes which have been agreed with the New Zealand Government.

Key Risks to post-pandemic financial objectives
Air New Zealand’s financial outlook is subject to risks. Key Risks are set out in Appendix D, and certain of these
are summarised at a high-level below. Please read the full description in Appendix D. These Key Risks and other
risks could materially adversely affect Air New Zealand
Covid-19 impact significant, ongoing and
uncertain
Level and pace of return of passenger demand
uncertain
•Return of overall passenger demand to pre-COVID levels on
Air New Zealand’s network is not expected until FY25
•Demand could remain lower than expected and for longer
than expected for numerous reasons. These could include
the potentially wide ranging impacts of the current conflict in
Ukraine or other geopolitical developments, customer
concerns related to environmental sustainability or health
risks of flying related to Covid-19, changes in customer
preference (including a reduced need for business travel) or
an economic downturn
General macro-economic conditions / cost
increases / inflation
•Generally, higher inflation increases Air New Zealand’s cost
base, including the costs of labour, airport services, and
other inputs
•Inflation may continue to rise and remain higher than
expected for a sustained period. Interest rates may also rise
•Air New Zealand’s revenue and profitability will be impacted
if it is unable to pass on cost increases to customers or
operate more efficiently
•Higher inflation may also impact potential customers’
disposable income, impacting demand
Fuel prices uncertain
•Historically, jet fuel costs represent Air New Zealand's
second-largest operating expense (approximately 28% of
FY19 total operating expenses)
•Future fuel prices are uncertain, especially given the
current conflict in Ukraine and risk of increased hostilities
involving Russia
•Air New Zealand may be unable to offset fuel price
increases through hedging, fare increases or adjustments
to its network or cost structure, potentially impacting future
profitability
Increased competition
•Air New Zealand's profitability could be negatively impacted
by increased competition in its key markets
•Competitors may re-enter the New Zealand domestic
market, change strategies, or enter new markets where Air
New Zealand operates
•If fare prices are constrained by competition, it would make
it harder to pass on increased input costs to passengers
Further Key Risks –see Appendix D
•Cyber security and IT
systems
•Foreign exchange
volatility
•Capital sufficiency and
debt levels
•Ramp up of capacity
•Supply chain issues
•Employee relations
•Environmental
sustainability
•Investment in equity
capital
•Reliance on Government
support for international
cargo services
•Ability to pay dividends
•Major shareholder risk
•Unprecedented impact on Air New Zealand, resulting in
significant losses to date
•Future losses expected, with gearing increases and equity
reductions through until demand returns
•The risks related to Covid-19 are varied and their impact
may again be significant as experienced by Air New
Zealand over the last 24-months. These risks may include:
–further New Zealand or overseas travel restrictions
beyond those outlined in slide 10
–new Covid-19 variants / waves affecting Air New
Zealand’s workforce, customers and suppliers

•International booking activity increased following the Government announcements regarding the removal of self-isolation restrictions and the proposed phased lifting of travel restrictions as set out above
–International booking activity was predominantly trans-Tasman (where fewer airlines are currently flying compared to FY19) and North American flights, with Asia and Pacific Islands flight booking activity
subdued
–Air New Zealand believes this increased activity reflects an element of pent-up demand and an increase in booking activity following those announcements
–Bookings related to the New York City service, announced on 23 March 2022, have been encouraging
–Booking activity included bookings made with Airpoints
TM
Dollars and credit redemptions
•Air New Zealand’s assumption of a gradual rebuild of its international network through to FY25 is not changed by the bookingsduring this short booking period
•Domestic bookings remain impacted by Omicron, with booking activity predominantly related to leisure travel
•Air New Zealand is expecting a strong improvement on the level of domestic bookings as concerns around Omicron abate
The recent booking activity is not necessarily an indication of a consistent trend or trajectory, and medium and longer term trends in bookings are subject to the rapidly changing Covid-19 travel restrictions,
the recovery of demand, competition and other factors outside Air New Zealand’s control

Air New Zealand updated FY22 loss guidance
1See Glossary starting on slide 36for definition
•There is a large degree of uncertainty on demand for domestic travel for the remainder of FY22, including in particular, as aresult of the economic climate
and the significant volatility and potential for disruption caused by the impact of Omicron or other variants, and the current conflict in Ukraine
•Recent clarity on timing for unrestricted travel into New Zealand is helpful, however it is unclear how demand for internationalair travel will recover. Air New
Zealand is planning for international air travel to return gradually through to FY25
•While the recently announced removal of self-isolation restrictions is expected to drive an increase in international passenger demand over time, it is not
currently expected to have a material impact on Air New Zealand’s FY22 full year result
•On 24 February 2022, Air New Zealand announced with its FY2022 interim results that its current expectation was that the 2022financial year will incur a
loss before taxation and other significant items that exceeds $800 million
•Air New Zealand has seen some benefits from the limited period of sales after the Government’s recent announcement accelerating the plan to open New
Zealand’s borders (see slide 12), but a large degree of uncertainty remains
•Air New Zealand now expects its FY22 full year result to be a loss before other significant items and taxation of less than $800million
•Beyond FY22, further losses are expected to be incurred in the near-term with the amount of the losses subject to the level and pace of the
return of demand
•Air New Zealand currently expects (based on its assumptions, including the Key Assumptions summarised on slide 10 and the Government’s proposed
phased lifting of travel restrictions as described on slide 12) to have positive cash flows from operating activities

Aircraft capital expenditure (included in chart to FY28)
•Represents the largest proportion of Air New Zealand’s capital expenditure
•Historically, new aircraft deliveries were primarily funded by secured
aircraft financing rather than free cash flow
•Aircraft capital expenditure is expected to reduce from FY29 following the
replacement of the 777-300ER fleet
Note: All references to 787, 777-200ER and 777-300ER refer to Boeing aircraft
1Includes progress payments on aircraft and assumes all but one 787 slide rights are exercised
2Does not include capital expenditure for potential zero emission aircraft

anticipated to commence no

with a total cost expected ofapproximately $400 to $450 million
•Given the focus on investing in digitisation and in infrastructure, Air New
Zealand’s non-aircraft capital expenditure for this category is anticipated to
average approximately $150 to $200 million annually, although this
expenditure is not generally committed
–Includes one-off expenditure on a new Auckland engineering
hangar and the proposed relocation of the airline’s Head Office
•An average of approximately $150 million annual capital expenditure
relating to engine maintenance is also expected to be incurred. Annual
expenditure will follow increased aircraft utilisationas demand returns, but
once committed and spent, has an enduring benefit of 5+ years

In addition to the $1.2 billion Rights Offer, the recapitalisation
includes other forms of liquidity
After initially issuing $600 million of redeemable shares, Air New Zealand is intending to raise $600 million through
a proposed debt capital markets issuance (subject to market conditions) to repay ~$400 million of the redeemable
shares. Additional liquidity will also be available from the New Crown Loan
•Air New Zealand has issued a call notice to draw $600 million of redeemable shares, with proceeds to be received during the Rights Offer period
•These funds will be used to support liquidity until Air New Zealand completes a proposed debt capital markets issuance
•No further redeemable shares are available to be called following the completion of the Rights Offer
•The applicable interest rate is the aggregate of the specified base rate and a margin of 3.50% per annum. The margin is subject to step-ups from 31 December
2023
•Air New Zealand will be unable to pay dividends on its ordinary shares (including the New Shares) if distributions on the redeemable shares are not paid
•Redeemable shares are classified as debt for accounting purposes
•Air New Zealand has entered into a $400 million committed revolving standby facility with the Crown
•The facility will be available until 30 January 2026 and will be provided on an unsecured basis
•The opening interest rate will be BKBM plus an initial margin of 1.50% per annum, subject to certain performance / compliance-based increases
•A line fee of 1.00% per annum on the facility limit will also be payable for the duration of the facility, subject to certainreporting-based increases
•Air New Zealand will be unable to pay dividends on its ordinary shares (including the New Shares) if it has drawn under the facility
•The facility includes representations, warranties and undertakings typical of such a facility, including regular reporting onoperational and financial performance
and there are additional reporting and information requirements if a draw is made
•The facility will be available for drawing at the close of the Rights Offer subject to satisfaction of usual conditions, but AirNew Zealand does not expect to need
to draw the facility
•A shareholder vote is expected to be held later in 2022 to ratify Air New Zealand’s entry into the New Crown Loan (and the Exist ing Crown Loan)
•Air New Zealand expects to execute a debt capital markets issuance of approximately $600 million by 30 June 2022(subject to market conditions)
•Approximately $400 million of redeemable shares are currently intended to be redeemed upon successful completion of the proposeddebt capital markets
issuance, with approximately $200 million of redeemable shares currently intended to remain on issue.This remaining $200 million can be redeemed at Air
New Zealand’s discretion subject to a final redemption date of December 2046

Relationship between TERP and Offer Price
Calculation of TERP
•The Offer Price is calculated by applying a discount to the price Air New
Zealand shares should, in theory, trade at after the Rights Offer
•This theoretical price is called the theoretical ex rights price (or TERP) and is
calculated as follows:
Market capitalisation pre-Rights Offer + proceeds from Rights Offer
Number of ordinary shares on issue after the Rights Offer
•TERP is impacted by the number of shares issued in the Rights Offer. As Air
New Zealand is issuing a substantial number of New Shares at a discount,
TERP is much lower than the current trading price
•The discount applied to TERP to calculate the Offer Price (34.7%) has been
determined with the assistance of the airline’s advisors and taking into
account a number of different factors
•TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Air
New Zealand shares will trade after the Rights Offer will depend on
many factors and may differ from TERP or the Offer Price
Offer price = 34.7%
discount to TERP

passenger demand on those key routes and therefore the financial support provided to Air New Zealand is expected to decrease over time as border openings deliver increased passenger
volumes. Accordingly, the MIAC scheme will be scaled back and ultimately end as international flight frequencies and passenger numbers rise such that support is not required, which may

Key Risks – Important: Please Read
This section summarises the key risks Air New Zealand has identified in connection with the Rights Offer. It is critical thatyou read these carefully because these risks may materially adversely affect the future operating and financial
performance of Air New Zealand, and its share price. Like any investment, there are risks associated with an investment in Air New Zealand's shares. Those risks are acute in the current global context. This section does not set out all of the
risks related to an investment in Air New Zealand shares, the future operating or financial performance of Air New Zealand, the Rights Offer, or general market or industry risks. Some risks may be unknown and other risks, currently believed to
be immaterial, could turn out to be material.
In light of the Covid-19 pandemic and other significant events and conflicts around the world such as the current conflict in Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia, extra caution should be taken when assessing the risks
associated with an investment in Air New Zealand. Airlines have been significantly affected by border closures, restrictions on domestic and international movement and travel. The Covid-19 pandemic may result in changes to travel behaviours
and patterns permanently, including due to technological developments. Capital markets have seen equity securities suffer from spikes in volatility and significant, sudden price declines.
The summary of key risks set out below represent Air New Zealand's current assessment of these risks, however that may changeeither during the course of the Rights Offer or following the Rights Offer. There is no certainty as to the severity
or likelihood of any such foreseen and unforeseen impacts arising nor whether any mitigating action will be effective or can be taken. Accordingly, the key risks that Air New Zealand face are inherently uncertain and will continue to change.
Given the highly uncertain operating and financial environment, investors should be cautious about placing weight or relianceonforward-looking statements or assumptions made or described in this document, including in relation to the
removal of travel restrictions or social distancing rules, the rate and pace of any return of passenger demand for Air New Zealand’s services, Air New Zealand’s profitability, liquidity and debt levels, jet fuel prices and any macro-economic
factors such as currency rates and inflation. Such statements are inherently uncertain and should only be regarded as indicativeof possible outcomes. They are based on a series of assumptions which may not be proved correct over time due
to a range of factors outside Air New Zealand’s control.
You should make your own assessment of the key risks set out in this section before deciding whether to invest (or invest further) in Air New Zealand. You should also consider whether such an investment is suitable in light of your individual
risk profile, investment objectives and personal circumstances (including financial and taxation issues) and you are encouraged to consult with a financial or other professional adviser.

Covid-19 impact
significant, ongoing
and uncertain
Covid-19 resulted in unprecedented restrictions on domestic and international air travel. These restrictions have been imposed by governments around the world and regulatory authorities, and/or implemented as a
matter of best practice during a health crisis, and have included lockdowns, border closures, rules preventing domestic travel, mandatory quarantine periods, self-isolation, pre-and post-flight tests and other social
distancing rules.
These developments resulted in a material decline in demand for international and domestic air travel and have had an unprecedented material adverse effect on Air New Zealand’s financial position and
performance. In FY20 and FY21, Air New Zealand made statutory losses before taxation of $629 million and $415 million, respectiv ely. On 24 February 2022, Air New Zealand announced (with its 1H FY22 results)
that it expected losses before other significant items and taxation for FY22 to exceed $800 million. Air New Zealand now expectsits FY22 full year result to be a loss before other significant items and taxation of less
than $800 million. There is a risk that losses continue in future years. See slide 13 for further details.
If the restrictive actions taken to combat Covid-19 persist (whether in New Zealand or globally), Air New Zealand's operational and financial performance could deteriorate further. It is inherently difficult to make
accurate assumptions about future financial and operating performance in this uncertain environment.
Other measures may be introduced or extended by the New Zealand Government or other governments which could reduce demand, including pre-and post-flight testing and self-isolation requirements. Air New
Zealand does not have any additional information in relation to border opening or the removal of travel restrictions (and does not receive any specific information in this regard from the New Zealand Government as
its majority shareholder).

Level and pace of
return of passenger
demand uncertain
Air New Zealand's operating and financial performance is dependent on the level of domestic and international travel generally. As at the date of this presentation, levels of passenger demand remain materially
below pre-pandemic levels.
The unprecedented Covid-related travel restrictions led to an immediate and material decrease in demand for Air New Zealand’s services. The duration and degree of that material decline in demand for air travel for
Air New Zealand remains uncertain. This uncertainty is exacerbated by a number of significant factors related to Covid-19 that are outside the control of Air New Zealand, including the impact of new or existing
variants, the availability, efficacy and deployment of vaccines worldwide, and the restrictions imposed by national and regionalgovernments in respect of the freedom of movement and travel. As such, there is
continued uncertainty as to the duration and further impact of Covid-19, including in relation to government-mandated restrictions and health advice, as well as the general economic environment.
Recovery in passenger demand is a key assumption in Air New Zealand's financial modelling and strategic planning. In general terms, Air New Zealand has assumed that from the middle of calendar year 2022 New
Zealand’s borders will be fully open (and not restricted or closed again) to the majority of the markets it flies to and the requirement for vaccinated travellers (regardless of nationality) to self-isolate on arrival is
removed (and not reinstated), and has also assumed that demand for long-haul international travel approximates pre-Covid levels by the second half of FY25. Prolonged travel frictions (such as isolation and testing
requirements) at the New Zealand border may reduce passenger demand and therefore revenues below current planning assumptionsand impose additional costs on Air New Zealand.
If those assumptions are incorrect and/or passenger demand does not return at the expected levels and pace, the expected improvement in Air New Zealand's financial performance may not eventuate or may take
longer to eventuate. Demand for domestic and international air travel may remain lower than expected for longer than expected, even after the abatement of the pandemic, easing of travel restrictions and removal of
self-isolation/quarantine requirements.
Air New Zealand has assumed that there will be no long-term structural changes to passenger demand over the longer-term (noting that there is currently limited observable data relating to this). Reduced demand,
including through any longer-term structural changes if those eventuate, could be New Zealand-specific, or more general in nature, and could be caused by factors such as:
•environmental sustainability concerns;
•lower customer confidence in the health risks of flying related to Covid-19;
•changes in customer preferences or booking behaviour;
•concerns in relation to New Zealand as a destination depending on the prevalence of Covid-19;
•reduced travel for business, including due to greater familiarity with remote access technology for businesses and associatedcost savings; and
•reduced travel for business and leisure due to any economic downturn and impacts on customers' disposable income.
Prior to the emergence of the Omicron variant in New Zealand, Air New Zealand benefitted from strong levels of domestic travel in New Zealand while international border restrictions have been in place. As
restrictions on international travel are reduced, this may result in lower demand for domestic travel as those passengers start flying internationally rather than domestically. That decrease in domestic demand may not
be offset by international travel with Air New Zealand (noting that long-haul business (which represented approximately 41% of Air New Zealand’s FY19 passenger revenue) has been assumed to build back
gradually through to FY25). Lower domestic demand may materially adversely impact on Air New Zealand's financial performance.
A material decline in domestic and/or international travel would have a material adverse effect on Air New Zealand's operating and financial performance and could be caused by a number of factors, including as a
result of:
•the reinstatement of regional and national lockdowns, delays to border openings, continuation or reinstatement of self-isolationrequirements in New Zealand, pre-and post-flying testing and other
requirements imposed on travellers that make air travel to and from or within New Zealand more difficult; or
•a particular event (such as a pandemic / epidemic, outbreak of disease, war, terrorist attack, a flying or safety incident, or an extreme weather event or natural disaster, such as earthquakes and volcanic ash
clouds), economic conditions (causing a decrease in consumer and business demand), or any other factors.
The current conflict in the Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia adds further uncertainty to the outlook for the demand for international air travel. That conflict could reduce demand for
international travel for a number of reasons, including increased safety concerns. If that conflict escalates, its potential impacts would be amplified.

Key RiskDetails
General macro-
economic conditions /
cost increases /
inflation
Air New Zealand's operating and financial performance is affected by general economic and business conditions. This risk is heightened in the context of Covid-19, rising levels of inflation, rising interest rates, the
current conflict in Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia. A prolonged deterioration in general economic conditions, including a resulting decrease in consumer and business demand, would
likely have a material adverse effect on Air New Zealand's business or financial condition (or both). Any impact would be of uncertain severity and duration. Air New Zealand has assumed that the general economic
operating environment for air travel will be relatively stable and that there will not be a sudden or prolonged deteriorationin general economic conditions. If there were such a downturn, this could materially and
adversely affect the markets in which Air New Zealand operates, and consequently its business.
Air New Zealand is exposed to the risk of increased costs across its business (including, for example, in respect of labour, fuel and airport services related costs such as take-off and landing fees, air traffic control
and general airport charges). There is no assurance that airport operators will not continue to increase their fees or that Air New Zealand will not incur new costs from those airport operators. If Air New Zealand is
unable to pass through those increased costs on to passengers, or if a reduction in passenger demand results from Air New Zealand passing those increased costs on to passengers (which, in turn, could influence
the airline’s network and capacity plans), then those developments could have a material adverse effect on Air New Zealand’s financial results.
Currently, New Zealand and other countries are experiencing increasing inflation levels. There is no assurance that inflationwill not continue to rise and remain high for a sustained period. In terms of its targets, Air
New Zealand assumes that inflation rates will revert to long-term historical averages over the period to FY25. However, that is uncertain. Higher inflation increases Air New Zealand’s cost base – key inputs such as
labour and other operating costs and currency are all impacted. Interest rates may also increase. Where Air New Zealand cannot off-set cost increases through productivity initiatives or pass on costs increases to
passengers by way of fare increases without losing those passengers, its flown capacity, revenue and profitability will be reduced. Higher inflation may also impact potential customers' disposal income which could
reduce demand.
Fuel prices uncertainJet fuel costs constitute a significant proportion of Air New Zealand's total operating expenses (in FY19 it represented approximately 28% of Air New Zealand's total operating expenses). Historically, jet fuel costs
have widely fluctuated due to factors such as supply and demand dynamics, geopolitical issues and economic conditions. The future availability and cost of jet fuel cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty.
Any material increase in jet fuel prices over a sustained period will materially increase Air New Zealand's operating expenses and may materially reduce profitability. Air New Zealand may not be able to offset
increases in the price of jet fuel or sustained high jet fuel prices with fuel surcharges, fare increases or fuel cost hedging strategies. Price increases may also add risk to Air New Zealand’s ability to adequately
implement its operating strategy, and may negatively impact the pace and level of passenger demand recovery.
The current conflict in Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia have caused recent volatility in jet fuelprices. Air New Zealand’s targets assume jet fuel reverts to long-term historical averages. If
jet fuel prices are elevated for a sustained period, including due to the conflict in Ukraine or hostilities involving Russia, Air New Zealand’s financial performance and position will be adversely affected, and potentially
materially so. Fare increases needed to recover higher costs may negatively impact the pace and level of passenger demand recovery.
Air New Zealand attempts to mitigate the adverse impact of volatility in jet fuel prices by entering into fuel hedge agreements to purchase jet fuel in the future at pre-determined prices. However, Air New Zealand
does not hedge all of its fuel supply requirements, and these contracts do not protect Air New Zealand from increases in the price of jet fuel beyond the period of the contract and may (due to the cost of these
instruments) limit the benefits Air New Zealand would derive from decreases in the cost of jet fuel during the term of the contracts. There is no guarantee that future hedging contracts which protect Air New Zealand
from high jet fuel prices can be entered into, including at reasonable pricing.
Other potential actions Air New Zealand can use to attempt to mitigate elevated fuel prices include increasing its fares and/or reducing its capacity. Passenger demand reduces as a result of fare increases. If,
however, Air New Zealand is unable to offset fuel price increases with fare increases or make the necessary adjustments to its network or cost structure, it's future profitability may be negatively impacted.
Jet fuel is paid for in US dollars. Therefore, higher jet fuel prices, coupled with a strengthening US dollar relative to theNew Zealand dollar will amplify the adverse effect on Air New Zealand’s financial position and
performance (particularly where there is limited international flying and Air New Zealand has limited ability to earn foreigncurrency). In the event of a jet fuel supply shortage, higher jet fuel prices or the curtailment of
scheduled services could result.
Increased competition
(1 / 2)
Air travel is a highly competitive business. For Air New Zealand, this is particularly true in relation to trans-Tasman and long-haul international routes (which represented approximately 59% of Air New Zealand’s
FY19 passenger revenue). Air New Zealand’s competitors include some operators with greater financial resources. Airlines competeon a range of factors including fare levels, frequency of flights, quality and
reliability of service, brand recognition, passenger amenities, frequent flyer programmes and the availability and convenience of other passenger services. Increased competition may reduce demand for Air New
Zealand’s services thereby reducing revenue or potentially requiring discounted airfares to retain revenue. If so, Air New Zealand's profitability would be negatively impacted and such impact could be significant.
Further, a highly competitive market which constrained fare prices could also result in Air New Zealand being unable to pass on increased input costs to passengers (including fuel costs, landing charges and other
similar costs which have seen significant recent increases), reducing Air New Zealand’s margin and financial performance.

Increased competition
(2 / 2)
In particular, Air New Zealand may face increased competition in its key markets, particularly in domestic New Zealand market(including if some of its competitors fully enter the New Zealand domestic market),
short-haul international routes and the North American market. This threat may arise at this time as other airlines change strategies and enter new markets post-Covid in order to have greater opportunities to grow
back their revenue. Competitive threats may arise from either individual airlines or from alliances between Air New Zealand'scompetitors. The competitive landscape is highly complex, with many factors (including
input costs, passenger demand, supply dynamics and opportunity costs) driving competitor behaviour and strategy. The success of Air New Zealand’s competitive strategy is subject to uncertainties beyond its
control.
Cyber security and IT
systems
Air New Zealand faces both significant external cyber-attack threats and internal cyber risks. Its data, systems and informationtechnology (together “Technology Systems”) may be vulnerable to theft, payment fraud,
loss, damage and interruption due to unauthorised access, security breaches, computer viruses, power loss or other disruptiveevents. Like other companies, Air New Zealand faces increasing risks that individuals or
groups attempt to disrupt the availability, confidentiality, integrity and resilience of its Technology Systems or TechnologySystems Air New Zealand relies on. A security breach could have a negative impact on
customer confidence in Air New Zealand’s systems and reputation. Cyber-attacks could also force Air New Zealand to temporarily or for a longer period ground aircraft or shut down its operations, in part or entirely.
In addition to disruption to its operations, such attacks could make it difficult to recover critical services, could damage assets and compromise the integrity and security of both corporate and customer data.
Disruption or loss of access to key systems or facilities as well as the failure of any key suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, operations, financial condition, prospects and
reputation.
Air New Zealand’s operations are dependent on the suitability, reliability, resilience and durability of its technology platforms, systems and processes, including third party systems and infrastructure. Air New Zealand
and its key suppliers deal with a large volume of personal data about passengers, prospective passengers and employees. Accordingly, Air New Zealand’s operations are heavily reliant on its Technology Systems.
Air New Zealand outsources the operation of certain Technology Systems to third parties and depends on the performance of those third parties and the cyber resilience of those third parties. The Technology
Systems, including Air New Zealand’s website, must be able to accommodate a high volume of traffic, maintain secure information,dispatch flights and deliver flight information, issue electronic tickets and process
critical financial and non-financial information in a timely manner. Poor performance by a third party will expose Air New Zealand to the risk that it will not be able to operate its Technology Systems effectively, or at
all, and could lead to materially adverse outcomes for Air New Zealand.
Foreign exchange
volatility
Air New Zealand is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies because its revenues and expenditures, borrowings, leases, investments and capital expenditure transactions are denominated in multiple currencies.
US dollars is the principal foreign currency in which Air New Zealand payments occur (including jet fuel purchases, aircraft leases, aircraft spare part purchases, engine maintenance, borrowings and aircraft
purchases). In FY19, approximately 42% of Air New Zealand’s operating expenses were paid for in United States dollars. Any appreciation in the US dollar (or other currencies in which Air New Zealand's expenses
are denominated) against the New Zealand dollar would increase Air New Zealand's total operating expenses (when measured in New Zealand dollars) and this would increase its New Zealand dollar assets,
liabilities and gearing and could decrease Air New Zealand's profitability (particularly where international flying is limited and Air New Zealand has limited ability to earn foreign currency).
Air New Zealand enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge against near term currency fluctuations occurring. However, Air New Zealand does not hedge all of its foreign currency requirements, and such
contracts do not fully protect Air New Zealand from the adverse impact of significant exchange rate fluctuations over the longerterm and may prevent Air New Zealand from fully benefitting from favourable
movements in exchange rates over the period of the contracts.
Air New Zealand’s financial modelling includes assumptions in relation to the NZD / USD foreign exchange rate, which are generally set based on historic average exchange rates. To the extent that actual foreign
exchange rates deviate from those historic averages in an adverse manner for Air New Zealand, without any natural or contractualhedges in place, this could have a material adverse effect on Air New Zealand’s
financial performance and achievement of its targets.
Capital sufficiency and
debt levels (1 / 2)
Capital
Air New Zealand has undertaken a capital sufficiency assessment exercise to assist in determining the size of the Rights Offer. Air New Zealand believes that a successful equity raise, together with its ongoing cost
saving initiatives, and the new debt facilities (including those continued to be provided by the Crown), will provide Air NewZealand with sufficient capital to position itself for recovery of passenger demand.
This assessment is based on what Air New Zealand considers to be a reasonable set of assumptions (assessed together with relevant sensitivities for those assumptions). However, there remains a risk that negative
impacts from Covid-19 and the resulting adverse global economic conditions, together with the risks associated with the current conflict in Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia, exceed
expected levels, and further cost saving measures cannot be achieved, or recovery in revenue and profitability takes longer thanexpected. In that scenario, Air New Zealand may have insufficient equity and/or
liquidity to meet capital and operational requirements and would need to re-assess its balance sheet and operations. It may alsoneed to access additional equity or debt funding which could have an adverse effect
on Air New Zealand and/or its earnings.

Capital sufficiency and
debt levels (2 / 2)
Debt
As Air New Zealand progresses its plans for recovery, it will carry a substantial amount of debt including related to aircraft acquisition and other financing arrangements for the foreseeable future, as well as
commitments for maintenance, working capital requirements and other obligations. Its level of debt will increase until passengerdemand returns to a level which permits it to repay debt. Although, as demand returns,
Air New Zealand will begin to generate additional cash flow from operations to pay debt and other fixed obligations. Air New Zealand expects that its liquidity will continue to decrease until it substantially ramps up its
international operations again, which may restrict its ability to repay debt. Accordingly, Air New Zealand currently expects that its gearing will continue to increase the beginning of FY25 before it is able to start
reducing its overall levels of debt. Air New Zealand’s ability to meet its payment obligations and to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on the success of its business strategy, the level and pace of the
return of demand, and Air New Zealand’s ability to generate sufficient revenues to satisfy its obligations, which are all subject to many uncertainties and contingencies beyond its control.
Ramp up of capacity
Air New Zealand has significantly reduced its network and operations as a result of the impacts of Covid-19. In order to take advantage of any increases in passenger demand, Air New Zealand may need to increase
its capacity at relatively short notice. This may be difficult and costly, particularly where the recovery is inconsistent, causing difficult and expensive "gearing up" and "gearing down" scenarios. This may cause Air
New Zealand issues such as having insufficient pilots, cabin crew and other operational staff available in time, or needing to stand-down or re-activate these employees at short notice, with associated increased
costs. In addition to its own operational readiness, Air New Zealand relies on the readiness of its global partners, suppliers and customers. There is a risk that sufficient aircraft or labour may not be available to meet
demand or there is only a short timeframe to react to the need for greater capacity and labour. These factors may result in inefficiencies, additional costs, lost opportunities, and adverse financial and operating
effects.
Supply chain issues
Air New Zealand relies on third party suppliers and service providers for aircraft manufacturers, jet fuel, ground handling, aircraft maintenance, call centres, IT systems, catering, fuel supply and other operations. The
efficiency and timeliness of such suppliers and service providers, as well as the quality of their contract performance, is beyond Air New Zealand’s direct control. In particular, those third party suppliers are subject to
ongoing supply chain disruptions and delays due to the ongoing effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and there is risk that the current conflict in Ukraine or other hostilities involving Russia could have a direct, or
indirect, on Air New Zealand's supply chain. Failure to adequately manage the performance of third party suppliers or serviceproviders and any failure by such suppliers or service providers to perform their
obligations, including as a result of global supply chain issues, could adversely affect Air New Zealand’s reputation and itsoperational and financial performance. Air New Zealand uses its business continuity plans to
cover the risk of supply failures and has contingency plans in place to respond to supply chain interruption. However, there is no guarantee that Air New Zealand will successfully mitigate the risk associated with any
such failure or underperformance.
Employee relations
Staff costs are one of Air New Zealand’s largest operating expenses. A significant portion of Air New Zealand’s employees arerepresented by unions and are party to collective bargaining arrangements. If Air New
Zealand is unable to negotiate collective agreements with unions on commercially reasonable terms, it could have material adverse effects on its cash flows and financial condition. Further, any significant collective
bargaining dispute between Air New Zealand and its employees could lead employees to take industrial action, including work stoppages. This could disrupt Air New Zealand’s day-to-day operations and adversely
affect business performance, potentially leading to reputational damage.
Environmental
sustainability
Growing concerns about environmental sustainability may materially adversely impact the global aviation industry. Environmental sustainability concerns may materially adversely affect demand for Air New Zealand’s
services, may result in adverse regulatory requirements, and Air New Zealand may need to take steps adversely affecting profitability.
In time, sustainable aviation fuels may increase the cost of, and therefore reduce demand for, international air travel. The development of new technology may impact the value of Air New Zealand's existing assets
(which constitute its largest tangible asset currently) and could materially adversely affect its financial position and performance.
In addition, transitioning to a lower-carbon economy may entail extensive policy, legal, technology and market changes to address mitigation and adaptation requirements related to climate change. Air New Zealand
may be materially adversely impacted by increased costs of offsetting carbon-based emissions (including escalating carbon creditpricing).
Physical risks resulting from climate change may have financial implications for Air New Zealand, such as indirect impacts from supply chain disruption and travel patterns and habits of customers.
Investment in equity

There are general risks associated with investments in equity capital. The trading price of Air New Zealand's ordinary sharesonNZX or ASX may fluctuate with movements in equity capital markets in New Zealand

Generally applicable factors which may affect the market price of Air New Zealand's ordinary shares include:
•the impact of Covid-19 (or any new variant), including on the business environment, supply chains and travel restrictions (including social distancing and self-isolation rules);
•general movements in New Zealand and international stock markets, including market volatility;
•investor sentiment;
•New Zealand and international economic conditions and outlook, including changes in interest rates, the rate of inflation, exchange rates, commodity prices, employment levels and consumer demand;
•changes in New Zealand and foreign government regulation and fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies;
•loss of key personnel and delays in replacement;
•announcement of new technologies;
•geo-political instability, including international hostilities (such as the current conflict in the Ukraine and the risk of increased hostilities involving Russia), acts of terrorism, natural disasters, extreme weather
events and catastrophes, whether in global, regional or local scale;
•epidemics and pandemics such as Covid-19 or any variant thereof;
•operating results of Air New Zealand that may vary from expectations of securities analysts and investors;
•changes in market valuations of other airlines; and
•future issuances of Air New Zealand equity securities.
The share prices for many listed companies have in recent times been subject to wide fluctuations and volatility, which in many cases may reflect a diverse range of non-company specific influences such as those
referred to above. In particular, the events relating to Covid-19, the current conflict in the Ukraine and the risk of increasedhostilities involving Russia and other significant events around the world have resulted in
significant market falls and volatility both in New Zealand and overseas, including in the prices of securities trading on the NZX and the ASX.
There is continued uncertainty as to the further impact of Covid-19 on the New Zealand economy and share markets including in relation to governmental action, regulation and advice, and the impact on equity and
debt capital markets. These events may materially adversely impact the market price of Air New Zealand's ordinary shares.
It is also possible that new risks may emerge as a result of domestic or foreign markets experiencing increased stress, or exist ing risks may evolve in ways that are not currently foreseeable.
No assurances can be given that the New Shares will trade at or above the Offer Price. None of Air New Zealand, its Board, the underwriters, joint lead managers or any other person guarantees the market
performance of the New Shares.
Reliance on
Government support
for international cargo
services
On 28 March 2022, Air New Zealand announced that it had renewed its contract with the New Zealand Government until the end of31March 2023 in relation to the Maintaining International Air Connectivity ("MIAC")
Scheme. While international borders remain closed or restricted, Air New Zealand is reliant on the MIAC scheme to assist it in sustaining long-haul international services and continuing connections to ports around
the world (e.g., to maintain landing slots at key offshore ports).
Air New Zealand assumes that it will receive the benefit of the MIAC subsidy until March 2023. The MIAC scheme does not provide a guaranteed revenue stream. Rather, MIAC support levels are adjusted to reflect
passenger demand on key routes to reflect passenger demand and accordingly is expected to decrease over time as border openings deliver increased passenger volumes. If international travel remains restricted
beyond March 2023 (albeit at diminishing levels as international passengers return) and the MIAC scheme is not extended (or Air New Zealand receives a smaller subsidy), this would materially reduce Air New
Zealand's financial performance.
Ability to pay
dividends
Air New Zealand's dividends are currently suspended. Subject to Air New Zealand’s performance, any payment of dividends is unlikely before FY26. Going forward, Air New Zealand may be unable to pay dividends
at historic levels or at all. The New Crown Loan prevents payment of dividends if the facility is drawn, and it is a condition of the subscription agreement with the Crown in relation to the redeemable shares that
dividends cannot be paid on ordinary shares if Air New Zealand has deferred the payment of interest on the Redeemable Shares on issue.

institution" or a "Schedule III bank" (each as defined in NI 45-106), (b) the Business
Development Bank of Canada or (c) a subsidiary of any person referred to in (a) or (b)
above, if the person owns all the voting securities of the subsidiary, except the voting
securities required by law to be owned by the directors of that subsidiary) shall have a
statutory right of action for damages and/or rescission against Air New Zealand if this
presentation or any amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation. If a purchaser
elects to exercise the right of action for rescission, the purchaser will have no right of
action for damages against Air New Zealand. This right of action for rescission or
damages is in addition to and without derogation from any other right the purchaser may
have at law. In particular, Section 130.1 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that, if
this presentation contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who purchases the Rights or
the New Shares during the period of distribution shall be deemed to have relied on the
misrepresentation if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase and has a right of
action for damages or, alternatively, may elect to exercise a right of rescission against Air
New Zealand, provided that:
a)Air New Zealand will not be liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased such
securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation;
b)in an action for damages, Air New Zealand is not liable for all or any portion of the
damages that Air New Zealand proves does not represent the depreciation in value
of such securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon; and
c)in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which such securities
were offered.
Section 138 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that no action shall be commenced
to enforce these rights more than:
a)in the case of any action for rescission, 180 days after the date of the
transaction that gave rise to the cause of action; or
b)in the case of any action, other than an action for rescission, the earlier of (i)
180 days after the purchaser first had knowledge of the fact giving rise to the
cause of action or (ii) three years after the date of the transaction that gave
rise to the cause of action.
These rights are in addition to and not in derogation from any other right the purchaser
may have.
Certain Canadian income tax considerations. Prospective purchasers of the Rights and
the New Shares should consult their own tax adviser with respect to any taxes payable in
connection with the acquisition, holding, or disposition of such securities as any
discussion of taxation related matters in this presentation is not a comprehensive
description and there are a number of substantive Canadian tax compliance
requirements for investors in the Provinces.

rounded up to the nearest whole Share (Ownership Percentage). The Crown’s
commitment set out in this paragraph is referred to as the Crown Commitment. On
the basis of the Crown Commitment, the Company agrees to allocate and issue to the
Crown such number of Offer Shares that are equal to the Crown Commitment (Crown
Committed Shares) in accordance with the terms of this letter, such that on
completion of the Offer the Crown will hold the Ownership Percentage. The Crown
Committed Shares will be issued to the Crown at the offer price per Offer Share set
out in the Offer Materials (as defined in paragraph (d)(i)(A) below), in accordance
with settlement processes agreed between the Company and the Crown (acting
through Te Tai Ōhanga The Treasury). The Crown will not, and is not obliged to,
subscribe for any Offer Shares other than the Crown Committed Shares.
(b) (Condition): The Crown’s obligations under paragraph (a) above are conditional on
the Offer proceeding in accordance with the Offer size, pricing, structure and timetable
(Timetable) set out in the Offer Materials (or as such matters are varied by agreement
with the Crown). If the condition referred to in this paragraph is not satisfied (or
waived by the Crown), then the Crown may terminate this letter by notice in writing
to the Company, and on such termination, this letter will be of no further effect and

neither party will have any claim against the other party arising under, or in connection
with, this letter.
(c) (Withdrawal or termination): If the Offer is withdrawn, or otherwise does not
proceed, this letter shall automatically terminate (with the same effect as termination
under paragraph (b) above).
(d) (Undertakings):
(i) The Company gives the following representations and warranties to the Crown

in relation to the Offer on and from the date of this letter by the Company
or on its behalf will be, at the time provided, true, complete and accurate
in all material respects.
(ii) The Company undertakes to the Crown during the period up to the earlier of
the termination of this letter and the completion of the Offer, to notify the Crown
promptly upon becoming aware of the happening of any event that either
constitutes or is reasonably likely to constitute a breach of any warranty set out
in paragraph (d)(i) and of any matter that is reasonably likely to have the effect
of making any such warranty incorrect or untrue or misleading by omission or
otherwise.
(e) (Legal responsibility): The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company

effect of this letter will be described in the Offer Materials and this letter will be
separately disclosed by the Company to the NZX market announcements platform in
connection with the release of the Offer Materials.

Proposed issue of +securities
Information and documents given to ASX become ASX’s property and may be made public.
If you are an entity incorporated outside Australia and you are proposing to issue a new class of
+securities other than CDIs, you will need to obtain and provide an International Securities
Identification Number (ISIN) for that class. For offers where the +securities proposed to be issued are
in an existing class of security, and the event timetable includes rights (or entitlement for non-
renounceable issues), and deferred settlement trading or a representation of such, ASX requires the
issuer to advise ASX of the ISIN code for the rights (or entitlement), and deferred settlement trading.
This code will be different to the existing class. If the securities do not rank equally with the existing
class, the same ISIN code will be used for that security to 3B.continue to be quoted while it does not
rank.
Further information on the requirement for the notification of an ISIN is available from the Create
Online Forms page. ASX is unable to create the new ISIN for non-Australian issuers.

Part 4D – Proposed offer under +securities purchase plan – listing rule requirements
Question
No.
Question Answer
4D.1 *Does the offer under the +securities
purchase plan meet all of the requirements
of listing rule 7.2 exception 5 or do you have
a waiver from those requirements?
Answer this question if the issuer is an ASX Listing (i.e.
not an ASX Debt Listing or ASX Foreign Exempt
Listing).
Listing rule 7.2 exception 5 can only be used once in
any 12 month period and only applies where:
the +security purchase plan satisfies the conditions
in ASIC Corporations (Share and Interest Purchase
Plans) Instrument 2019/547 or would otherwise
satisfy those conditions but for the fact that the
entity’s securities have been suspended from
trading on ASX for more than a total of 5 days
during the 12 months before the day on which the
offer is made under the plan or, if the securities
have been quoted on ASX for less than 12 months,
during the period of quotation;
the number of +securities to be issued under the
SPP must not be greater than 30% of the number of
fully paid +ordinary securities already on issue; and
the issue price of the +securities must be at least
80% of the +volume weighted average market price
for +securities in that +class, calculated over the
last 5 days on which sales in the +securities were
recorded, either before the day on which the issue
was announced or before the day on which the
issue was made.
Please note that the offer of securities under the plan
also will not meet the requirements of listing rule 10.12
exception 4, meaning that parties referred to in listing
rule 10.11.1 to 10.11.5 will need to obtain security
holder approval under listing rule 10.11 to participate in
the offer.

Important
Information
03Renounceable Rights Offer
Additional information available
under Air New Zealand’s continuous
disclosure obligations
Air New Zealand is subject to continuous disclosure
obligations under the NZX Listing Rules which require
it to notify certain material information to NZX. The
ASX Listing Rules also require that Air New Zealand
immediately provides to ASX all the information which
it provides to NZX that is, or is to be, made public.
Market releases by Air New Zealand are available at
www.nzx.com and www.asx.com.au under the ticker
code “AIR” and “AIZ”, respectively.
Air New Zealand recommends that you read its market
releases lodged with the NZX and ASX, including its
market announcements (together with the materials
attached to those announcements) regarding:
• the Offer released on 30 March 2022
(including the Investor Presentation
accompanying the announcement);
• a copy of the Crown Participation released
on 30 March 2022;
• Air New Zealand’s interim report and interim
results presentation for the six months ended 31
December 2021 released on 24 February 2022;
• Air New Zealand’s most recent annual report
and annual results presentation for the year ended
30 June 2021 released on 26 August 2021; and
• Air New Zealand’s monthly investor updates (Op
Stats), including the most recent operating update
for the month ended 31 January 2022 (released

February 2022 (released on 25 March 2022.
Air New Zealand may, during the period of the
Offer, make additional releases to NZX and ASX.
Shareholders should monitor Air New Zealand’s
market announcements during the period of the
Offer. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no
release by Air New Zealand to NZX or ASX will permit
an applicant to withdraw any previously submitted
application without Air New Zealand’s prior
written consent.
Market risk
The market price for the Shares may change materially
between the date the Offer opens, the date you apply
for New 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 the
share prices for many listed companies in recent times
due to the continuing impacts of Covid-19 and of other
significant events and conflicts around the world.
There is no certainty that this recent volatility will not
continue or worsen, which could have a materially
adverse impact on the share price for Air New Zealand.
Accordingly:
• the price paid for New Shares under the Offer may
be higher or lower than the price at which Shares
are trading on the NZX Main Board or ASX at the
time New Shares are issued under the Offer;
• the market price of Shares following allotment may
be higher or lower than the Offer Price; and
• it is possible that up to or after the Allotment Date,
you may be able to buy Shares at a lower price than
the Offer Price.
Any changes in the market price of Shares will not
affect the Offer Price.
If you have any doubts as to what you should do,
please consult your broker, financial, investment
or other professional adviser.
Withdrawal and date changes
Subject to compliance with all applicable laws,
Air New Zealand reserves the right at its absolute
discretion to:
• withdraw all or any part of the Offer (either
generally or in particular cases) (for example,
the Rights Offer could proceed but the Shortfall
Bookbuild could be withdrawn) and the issue of
New Shares under the Offer; and/or
• alter any dates set out in this Offer Document.

significant uncertainties, judgements, assumptions,

actual results or performance to vary materially from
the estimates, projections or outlook statements.
Investors should consider the forward-looking
statements in this Offer Document in light of those
risks and disclosures.
Investors are strongly cautioned not to place
undue reliance on any forward-looking statements,
particularly in light of the rapidly changing COVID-19

caused in relation to Air New Zealand by the
COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the current conflict
in Ukraine and its impact on global fuel prices.

We are pleased to invite eligible shareholders to
participate in a 2 for 1 pro rata renounceable rights
offer (Rights Offer) of new fully paid ordinary shares
in Air New Zealand (New Shares).
Flying through a pandemic
When Covid struck in early 2020 we took decisive
action. Routes were closed, planes parked, and we
reduced the number of Air New Zealand employees by
almost a third. Almost overnight, passenger numbers
halved, and flight demand dropped 95 per cent.
With New Zealand’s support, and Crown loan funding,
we were able to keep the country connected. While
many airlines were grounded, we’ve flown every day,
bringing in vital supplies, flying Kiwis home and keeping
New Zealand produce moving around the world.
We know this journey hasn’t been an easy one for
our shareholders with the suspension of our dividend
payments since 2020 and the decrease in equity
reserves. Our shareholders have been top of mind
as the airline took action to help mitigate the impact
of the pandemic, to maintain our credit rating and
best position the airline to survive, then revive and
finally thrive.
Refuelling for our recovery
The airline continues to be negatively impacted by
the Covid pandemic and will take time to recover.
While there will still be bumpy skies ahead over
the next few years, the moment is right for Air New
Zealand to recapitalise its balance sheet and repay
loans it received from the Crown. We need to refuel
for our recovery so we can connect New Zealand
to the world and help drive New Zealand’s broader
recovery from Covid.
With travel restrictions starting to ease, Air New
Zealand is preparing to return to key international
destinations, welcome visitors back to New Zealand
and launch a new service to New York.

will be offered through a Shortfall Bookbuild run by the Underwriters.

under the Offer.
If you choose not to take up any of your Rights, any
New Shares attributable to your Unexercised Rights
will be offered as part of the Shortfall Bookbuild. You
may still receive value for your Unexercised Rights if
a Premium is realised under the Shortfall Bookbuild.
There is no guarantee that a Premium will be realised.

an NZX Shareholder and you wish to trade your
Rights on the NZX Main Board, please contact
your broker, an NZX Firm or an ASX Broker.
11.3 Investors who acquire Rights on the NZX Main
Board or otherwise will, by acquiring those
Rights, and applying to take up all or part of
those Rights, be deemed to agree to make and
be subject to the representations, declarations,
warranties and agreements in the Acceptance
Form and in paragraph 20 of Part 4 of this
Offer Document (“Significance of sending in
an Application / declarations, representations,
warranties and agreements”).
11.4 The right to make an Application for Additional
New Shares under the Shortfall Bookbuild is
available to Eligible Shareholders who take up
their Rights in full only. Investors who acquire
Rights on the NZX Main Board and are not
Eligible Shareholders on the Record Date are not
entitled to make an Application for Additional
New Shares under the Shortfall Bookbuild
(but may be able to participate in the Shortfall
Bookbuild through NZX Firms who have been
invited to participate in the Shortfall Bookbuild).
11.5 Investors should note that if they purchase
Rights in a transaction on the NZX Main Board or
otherwise, in order to take up or exercise those
Rights and subscribe for New Shares they:
• must be:
• located in/with a registered address in
New Zealand or Australia (including,
for the avoidance of doubt, Eligible
Shareholders); or
• an Institutional Investor located in/with
a registered address in Canada, Cayman
Islands, the European Union, Hong
Kong, Norway, Singapore, Switzerland,
the United Arab Emirates or the United
Kingdom; or
• any other person to whom Air New
Zealand and the Joint Lead Managers
consider an offer of Rights or New Shares
may be made without the need for a
lodged prospectus or other formality
(other than a formality with which Air New
Zealand is willing to comply); and
• must not be in the United States or acting
for the account or benefit of a person in the
United States in respect of the purchase or
exercise of such Rights and the subscription
for New Shares. The Rights may not be
purchased, traded, taken up or exercised by
any person in the United States or by any
person acting for the account or benefit of
a person in the United States (to the extent
such persons are acting for the account or
benefit of persons in the United States).
11.6 If an investor does not satisfy the above
conditions, they will not be entitled to take
up Rights or subscribe for New Shares. It is
the responsibility of purchasers of Rights to
inform themselves of the eligibility criteria to
exercise the Rights. If holders of Rights after the
end of the Rights trading period do not meet
the eligibility criteria, they will not be able to
exercise the Rights. In the event that holders are
not able to take up their Rights, those Rights will
be sold into the Shortfall Bookbuild and holders
may receive no value for them.
12. Security transaction statements
12.1 Security transaction statements for New Shares
allotted under the Offer will be issued and mailed
as soon as practicable after the Allotment Date.
Applicants under the Offer should ascertain
their allocation before trading in the New
Shares. Applicants can do so by contacting the
Registrar, whose contact details are set out in
Part 6: Directory.
19Renounceable Rights Offer
12.2 Shareholders selling New Shares prior to
receiving a security transaction statement do
so at their own risk. None of Air New Zealand,
the Underwriters or Joint Lead Managers or
their respective affiliates, the Registrar nor
any of their respective directors, officers,
employees, agents or advisers accepts any
liability or responsibility should any person
attempt to sell or otherwise deal with New
Shares before the security transaction
statement showing the number of New Shares
allotted to the applicant is received by the
applicant for those New Shares.
13. Shortfall Bookbuild
13.1 New Shares attributable to Unexercised Rights
will be offered under the Shortfall Bookbuild to
Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in
full and who apply for Additional New Shares and
to Institutional Investors.
13.2 The Underwriters will manage the Shortfall
Bookbuild on behalf of Air New Zealand.
The Shortfall Bookbuild is expected to be
completed on 4 May 2022.
13.3 Air New Zealand reserves the right to determine
who may participate in the Shortfall Bookbuild
and may decline or scale applications for
New Shares by any Eligible Shareholder or
Institutional Investor under the Shortfall
Bookbuild.
Shortfall Bookbuild application process
13.4 Eligible Shareholders that take up their Rights in
full can apply for Additional New Shares by:
• in the case of NZX Shareholders, specifying
a NZ$ amount of New Shares that they wish
to apply for on Part B of the New Zealand
Acceptance Form;
• in the case of ASX Shareholders, specifying
a A$ amount of New Shares on Part B of the
Australian Acceptance Form;
• as directed via the online acceptance at
https://airnz.rightsoffer.co.nz; or
• in the case of Custodians, please see
paragraph 14.1 of Part 4: Terms of the Offer.
13.5 Institutional Investors participating in the
Shortfall Bookbuild will bid for New Shares
attributable to Unexercised Rights. The
minimum bid that may be submitted for a New
Share under the Shortfall Bookbuild is the Offer
Price of $0.53 per New Share and this amount is
payable to Air New Zealand.
13.6 If you are an Institutional Investor, you may
participate in the Shortfall Bookbuild by
contacting the Underwriters who will provide
details as to the process to be undertaken in
relation to the Shortfall Bookbuild.
Bookbuild Price
13.7 The price at which New Shares will be issued
under the Shortfall Bookbuild is the Bookbuild
Price. There is no limit to the Bookbuild Price.
The Bookbuild Price will be a New Zealand
dollar amount.
13.8 The Bookbuild Price will be determined by
Air New Zealand in consultation with the
Underwriters (each acting reasonably) and
will be equal to or above the Offer Price. The
Bookbuild Price will be set in a manner that
remains consistent with the objective of
maximising the value of Unexercised Rights.
However, it is possible, in a limited set of
circumstances, that Air New Zealand (in
consultation with the Underwriters) may elect
to set the Bookbuild Price at a level which is less
than the highest price available and furthermore
there is no guarantee that the Bookbuild Price
will exceed the Offer Price.
13.9 The proceeds from each New Share issued
under the Shortfall Bookbuild (if any) will be
paid by the Registrar as follows:
• the Offer Price of $0.53 will be paid to
Air New Zealand; and
• any Premium achieved will be paid (net of
any amounts required to be withheld) to the
holders of Unexercised Rights (including
Ineligible Shareholders) in proportion to their
holdings of Unexercised Rights. Ineligible
Shareholders will be deemed to hold the
number of Rights they would have received
if they were Eligible Shareholders for the
purpose of calculating the amount of any
Premium payable to them.
Example
13.10 This example assumes that there is demand
for all of the New Shares available under the
Shortfall Bookbuild and that the Bookbuild Price
exceeds the Offer Price:
• Offer Price per New Share: $0.53
• Bookbuild Price per New Share: $0.58
• Premium: $0.05
13.11 In this example, a Shareholder who holds
1,000 Existing Shares at 7.00pm (NZST) /
5.00pm (AEST) on the Record Date who is
either an Ineligible Shareholder or is an Eligible
Shareholder who chooses not to take up any of
his or her Rights will have 1,000 Unexercised
Rights. That Shareholder will receive $100 in
aggregate for his or her Unexercised Rights in
the Shortfall Bookbuild, being the Premium of
$0.05 multiplied by the number of New Shares
attributable to the Unexercised Rights held by
him or her.
20Air New Zealand Limited
13.12 The above is an example only. If the Bookbuild
Price is equal to the Offer Price, there will be no
Premium payable to the holders of Unexercised
Rights. To the maximum extent permitted by law,
Air New Zealand, the Underwriters, the Joint Lead
Managers, 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 realise a
Premium in the Shortfall Bookbuild.
13.13 Any Premium will be calculated in New Zealand
dollars (net of any amounts required to be
withheld), and paid in New Zealand dollars or
Australian dollars in accordance with
paragraph 13.20.
Allocations and scaling
13.14 Allocations and any necessary scaling of
applications for New Shares under the Shortfall
Bookbuild will be determined by Air New
Zealand in consultation with the Underwriters
(each acting reasonably).
13.15 There is no assurance that any applicant for
New Shares in the Shortfall Bookbuild will be
allocated any New Shares or the number of New
Shares for which it has applied. The allocation
policy will be influenced by, but not constrained
by factors such as:
• the number of New Shares bid for by
particular bidders;
• whether the particular bidder is an existing
Shareholder;
• whether the particular bidder participated in
the sub-underwriting of the Rights Offer;
• the timeliness of the bid by particular bidders
with a likely preference for early bids;
• demonstration of price leadership;
• the size, style, type and/or geographic
location of particular bidders;
• the likelihood that particular bidders will
be long term Shareholders (taking into
account support of Air New Zealand to
date, existing or previous Shareholders,
length of shareholding, size of investment,
previous engagement and interaction with
Air New Zealand);
• the prospects of success of the Offer and Air
New Zealand’s desire for a stable market for
its Shares after completion of the Offer; and
• any other factors that Air New Zealand and
the Underwriters consider appropriate.
13.16 An allocation will not be made if, as a result of the
allocation, Air New Zealand would cease to be in
compliance with any provision of its constitution,
or to an Institutional Investor if the Underwriters
are not prepared, acting reasonably, to accept
the credit risk of that investor.
13.17 If applications are scaled, Eligible Shareholders
that apply for Additional New Shares under the
Shortfall Bookbuild may not receive New Shares
in respect of any or all of their application monies.
It is expected that scaling of applications for
Additional New Shares will be done:
• on a consistent basis, by reference to the
quantum of Additional New Shares applied
for (calculated as dollar value of Additional
New Shares applied for divided by the
Bookbuild Price, rounded down to the
nearest whole New Share); and
• on at least an equivalent or more favourable
basis to other applicants in the Shortfall
Bookbuild who are allocated New Shares in
the Shortfall Bookbuild,
although Air New Zealand and the Underwriters
retain discretion to scale individual applications
for Additional New Shares on a differential basis.
13.18 Once the Bookbuild Price has been determined,
the application monies in respect of any
applications for Additional New Shares in the
Shortfall Bookbuild by Eligible Shareholders:
• if made in New Zealand dollars, will be
divided by the Bookbuild Price to calculate
the number of Additional New Shares that
those Eligible Shareholders have applied for
(subject to scaling), rounded down to the
nearest whole New Share; or
• if made in Australian dollars, will be
calculated in New Zealand dollars at the
Exchange Rate and divided by the Bookbuild
Price to calculate the number of Additional
New Shares that those Eligible Shareholders
have applied for (subject to scaling), rounded
down to the nearest whole New Share.
13.19 Any refunds of application monies due to
scaling of applications or applications not being
accepted under the Shortfall Bookbuild will be
made within five Business Days (as defined in
the NZX Listing Rules) following the Allotment
Date (without interest). Refunds will not be paid
for any difference arising solely due to rounding
or where the aggregate amount of the refund
payable to an applicant is less than $5.00.
Payment of Premium
13.20 The Premium, if any, will be paid net of any
amounts required to be withheld:
• in New Zealand dollars; or
• for those Shareholders who receive
dividends in Australian dollars, in Australian
dollars at the Exchange Rate,
in accordance with the direct credit payment
instructions provided by the relevant
Shareholder to Air New Zealand (if any) and
otherwise withheld until such time as a direct
credit instruction is provided to the Registrar.
13.21 No interest will be paid in respect of any
Premium payable. Payment of the Premium (if
any) is expected to be made by 16 May 2022.
21Renounceable Rights Offer
14. Custodians
14.1 In order to participate in the Offer on behalf
of one or more beneficial owners, Custodians
must provide the following information by email
to the Registrar and make payment by way of
electronic funds transfer:
(a) the number of Participating Beneficiaries
(as defined below) and their names and
addresses;
(b) in respect of each of the Participating
Beneficiaries, the number of Existing Shares
that the Participating Beneficiary holds and
the number and dollar amount of Rights, as
well as the dollar amount of any Additional
New Shares in the Shortfall Bookbuild (if
eligible), the Participating Beneficiary has
instructed the Custodian, either directly or
indirectly through a Downstream Custodian
(as defined below), to apply for on behalf of
that Participating Beneficiary;
(c) where the Custodian holds Existing Shares
on behalf of a Participating Beneficiary
indirectly, through one or more Downstream
Custodians, the name and address of each
Downstream Custodian; and
(d) an acknowledgement that the certifications
described in paragraphs 14.2, 20.1 and 20.2
of this Part 4: Terms of the Offer are deemed
to have been provided to Air New Zealand.
14.2 If a Custodian applies in the manner described
above to purchase New Shares on behalf of one
or more beneficial owners, the Custodian will
be deemed to have certified to Air New Zealand
that:
(a) the Custodian holds Existing Shares on
behalf of:
(i) one or more other persons that are
not Custodians (who would be Eligible
Shareholders if they held Existing Shares
directly); and/or
(ii) another Custodian (Downstream
Custodian) that holds beneficial interests
in Existing Shares on behalf of one or
more other persons to which those
interests relate, on the Record Date, (each
a Participating Beneficiary) who have
subsequently instructed the Custodian,
and/or the Downstream Custodian,
participate in the Offer on their behalf;
(b) the information set out in the email required
to be provided to the Registrar under
paragraph 14.1 of this Part 4:Terms of the
Offer is true and accurate;
(c) a copy of this Offer Document was given to
each Participating Beneficiary; and
(d) the beneficial owner on whose behalf the
Custodian is submitting an Application is
not making an Application as an Eligible
Shareholder under the Offer, and no other
Custodian is submitting an Application under
the Offer for that beneficial owner.
14.3 Custodians may not distribute any part of this
Offer Document to any person in the United
States or any other country outside New
Zealand and Australia, and may not participate
in the Offer on behalf of any beneficial owner
who is located in the United States or any other
country outside New Zealand and Australia,
except to the extent such persons or beneficial
owners are located outside the United States
and are institutional and professional investors
listed in, and to the extent permitted under,
the section captioned “International Offer
Restrictions” below or elsewhere as Air New
Zealand may determine it is lawful and practical
to make the Offer.
14.4 In particular, Custodians who hold Existing
Shares on behalf of persons in the United States,
or who are acting for the account or benefit of
persons in the United States (to the extent such
persons are acting for the account or benefit of
persons in the United States), are not eligible
to participate in the Offer on behalf of those
persons, and may not acquire Rights or take up
New Shares on behalf of, or send any documents
relating to the Offer to, any person in the
United States.
14.5 Air New Zealand is not required to determine
whether or not any registered holder is acting as
a Custodian, or the identity or residence of any
beneficial owners of Shares. Where any holder
is acting as a Custodian for a foreign person,
that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary, will
need to assess whether indirect participation by
the beneficiary in the Offer is compatible with
applicable foreign laws. Eligible Shareholders
who are Custodians are therefore advised to
seek independent advice as to how to proceed.
For the avoidance of doubt, Custodians are
responsible for determining whether an
underlying beneficial holder of Existing Shares
for whom you act as Custodian is an Eligible
Shareholder. The Joint Lead Managers will
not advise as to, and are not responsible for
determining, whether any such person qualifies
as an Eligible Shareholder.
14.6 If you hold your Shares through a Custodian,
please provide your Custodian with your
instructions so that they may apply on your
behalf in accordance with the information above.
15. Overseas Shareholders
15.1 The Offer is open only to Eligible Shareholders.
The Offer is not open to Shareholders in other
jurisdictions as Air New Zealand considers
that it is unduly onerous and unreasonable for
Air New Zealand to make the Offer into those
jurisdictions having regard to the number of
securities held by Ineligible Shareholders, the
22Air New Zealand Limited
number and value of New Shares that they
would be offered and the costs of complying
with the legal and regulatory requirements
which would apply to an offer of securities to
Ineligible Shareholders in those places. Air
New Zealand, the Underwriters, the Joint Lead
Managers and each of their respective affiliates
and related bodies corporate and each of their
directors, partners, employees, advisers and
agents disclaim any liability as to eligibility to
participate in this Offer, to the maximum extent
permitted by law.
15.2 Except as set out below, Shareholders in those
other jurisdictions will not be issued Rights.
It is the responsibility of each Shareholder to
ensure that any participation complies with all
applicable laws and that each beneficial owner
on whose behalf such Shareholder is submitting
the Application or trading Rights is not in the
United States.
15.3 This Offer Document is intended for use
only in connection with the Offer to Eligible
Shareholders, being Shareholders in New
Zealand or Australia, and Shareholders who
are Institutional Investors in Canada, Cayman
Islands, the European Union, Hong Kong,
Norway, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Arab
Emirates or the United Kingdom. It does not
constitute an offer or invitation in any place in
which, or to any person to whom, it would not be
lawful to make such an offer or invitation.
15.4 This Offer Document is not to be sent or
given to any person outside New Zealand or
Australia in circumstances in which the Offer
or distribution of this Offer Document would
be unlawful. In particular, this Offer Document
may not be sent or given to any person in the
United States. The distribution of this Offer
Document (including an electronic copy)
outside New Zealand or Australia may be
restricted by law. If you come into possession
of this Offer Document, you should observe any
such restrictions. Any failure to comply with
such restrictions may contravene applicable
securities law, including as set out below.
15.5 No person may purchase, offer, sell, distribute
or deliver New Shares, or be in possession of,
or distribute to any other person, any offering
material or any documents in connection with
the New Shares, in any jurisdiction other than
in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations.
15.6 Certain institutional Shareholders in the United
States may be invited to participate in the U.S.
Private Placement conducted concurrently
with the Offer, and will be contacted directly
by Air New Zealand with the relevant offer
documentation in relation thereto.
16. International Offer Restrictions
16.1 This Offer Document does not constitute an
offer of Rights or New Shares in any jurisdiction
in which it would be unlawful. In particular, this
Offer Document may not be distributed to any
person, and the Rights and New Shares may
not be offered or sold, in any country outside
New Zealand or Australia except to the extent
permitted below.
Australia
16.2 This Offer is being made to Australian
resident Shareholders without a prospectus
in accordance with section 708AA of the
Corporations Act (as modified by ASIC
Instrument 2016/84 and ASIC Instrument 22-
0225). This Offer Document is not a prospectus,
product disclosure statement or any other
form of disclosure document regulated by the
Corporations Act and has not been and will not
be lodged with ASIC. Accordingly, this Offer
Document may not contain all information which
a prospective investor may require to make a
decision whether to subscribe for New Shares
and it does not contain all of the information
which would otherwise be required by Australian
law to be disclosed in a prospectus. Neither ASIC
nor ASX takes any responsibility for the contents
of this Offer Document.
Canada
16.3 This Offer Document constitutes an offering of
Rights and New Shares only in the Provinces
of British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec (the
Provinces) and to those persons to whom they
may be lawfully distributed in the Provinces,
and only by persons permitted to sell such
securities. This Offer Document is not, and under
no circumstances is to be construed as, an
advertisement or a public offering of securities
in the Provinces. This Offer Document may only
be distributed in the Provinces to persons that
are “accredited investors” within the meaning
of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus
Exemptions or section 73.3, of the Securities Act
(Ontario) (collectively “NI 45-106”).
16.4 No securities commission or similar authority in
the Provinces has reviewed or in any way passed
upon this Offer Document, the merits of the
Rights or the New Shares or the offering of such
securities and any representation to the contrary
is an offence.
16.5 No prospectus has been, or will be, filed in the
Provinces with respect to the offering of Rights
or New Shares or the resale of such securities.
Any person in the Provinces lawfully participating
in the offer will not receive the information, legal
rights or protections that would be afforded had
a prospectus been filed and receipted by the
23Renounceable Rights Offer
securities regulator in the applicable Province.
Furthermore, any resale of the Rights or the
New Shares in the Provinces must be made in
accordance with applicable Canadian securities
laws which may require resales to be made
in accordance with exemptions from dealer
registration and prospectus requirements.
16.6 Air New Zealand as well as its directors and
officers may be located outside Canada and, as
a result, it may not be possible for purchasers
to effect service of process within Canada upon
Air New Zealand or its directors or officers.
All or a substantial portion of the assets of Air
New Zealand and such persons may be located
outside Canada and, as a result, it may not be
possible to satisfy a judgment against Air New
Zealand or such persons in Canada or to enforce
a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against
Air New Zealand or such persons outside Canada.
16.7 Unless stated otherwise, all dollar amounts
contained in this document are in New
Zealand dollars.
Statutory rights of action for damages and rescission
16.8 Securities legislation in certain of the Provinces
may provide purchasers with, in addition to
any other rights they may have at law, rights of
rescission or to damages, or both, when an offering
memorandum that is delivered to purchasers
contains a misrepresentation. These rights and
remedies must be exercised within prescribed
time limits and are subject to the defences
contained in applicable securities legislation.
Prospective purchasers should refer to the
applicable provisions of the securities legislation
of their respective Province for the particulars of
these rights or consult with a legal adviser.
16.9 The following is a summary of the statutory
rights of rescission or to damages, or both,
available to purchasers in Ontario. In Ontario,
every purchaser of the Rights or the New Shares
purchased pursuant to this Offer Document
(other than (a) a “Canadian financial institution”
or a “Schedule III bank” (each as defined in NI
45-106), (b) the Business Development Bank of
Canada or (c) a subsidiary of any person referred
to in (a) or (b) above, if the person owns all the
voting securities of the subsidiary, except the
voting securities required by law to be owned
by the directors of that subsidiary) shall have
a statutory right of action for damages and/
or rescission against Air New Zealand if this
Offer Document or any amendment thereto
contains a misrepresentation. If a purchaser
elects to exercise the right of action for
rescission, the purchaser will have no right of
action for damages against Air New Zealand.
This right of action for rescission or damages
is in addition to and without derogation from
any other right the purchaser may have at law.
In particular, Section 130.1 of the Securities Act
(Ontario) provides that, if this Offer Document
contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who
purchases the Rights or the New Shares during
the period of distribution shall be deemed to
have relied on the misrepresentation if it was a
misrepresentation at the time of purchase and
has a right of action for damages or, alternatively,
may elect to exercise a right of rescission against
Air New Zealand, provided that:
(a) Air New Zealand will not be liable if it proves
that the purchaser purchased such securities
with knowledge of the misrepresentation;
(b) in an action for damages, Air New Zealand
is not liable for all or any portion of the
damages that Air New Zealand proves
does not represent the depreciation in
value of such securities as a result of the
misrepresentation relied upon; and
(c) in no case shall the amount recoverable
exceed the price at which such securities
were offered.
16.10 Section 138 of the Securities Act (Ontario)
provides that no action shall be commenced to
enforce these rights more than:
(a) in the case of any action for rescission, 180
days after the date of the transaction that
gave rise to the cause of action; or
(b) in the case of any action, other than an action
for rescission, the earlier of (i) 180 days after
the purchaser first had knowledge of the fact
giving rise to the cause of action or (ii) three
years after the date of the transaction that
gave rise to the cause of action.
16.11 These rights are in addition to and not in
derogation from any other right the purchaser
may have.
16.12 Certain Canadian income tax considerations.
Prospective purchasers of the Rights and the
New Shares should consult their own tax adviser
with respect to any taxes payable in connection
with the acquisition, holding, or disposition of
such securities as any discussion of taxation
related matters in this Offer Document is not
a comprehensive description and there are a
number of substantive Canadian tax compliance
requirements for investors in the Provinces.
16.13 Language of documents in Canada. Upon receipt
of this Offer Document, each investor in Canada
hereby confirms that it has expressly requested
that all documents evidencing or relating in any
way to the sale of the New Shares (including for
greater certainty any purchase confirmation
or any notice) be drawn up in the English
language only. Par la réception de ce document,
chaque investisseur canadien confirme par les
présentes qu’il a expressément exigé que tous
les documents faisant foi ou se rapportant de
quelque manière que ce soit à la vente des valeurs
mobilières décrites aux présentes (incluant, pour
plus de certitude, toute confirmation d’achat ou
tout avis) soient rédigés en anglais seulement.

17. Underwriting Agreement
17.1 Air New Zealand has requested that the
Underwriters underwrite the Offer (other than
the amount of the Crown Participation) and the
Underwriters have agreed to do so. This means
that the Underwriters will subscribe at the Offer
Price for any New Shares that are not subscribed
for by Eligible Shareholders or Institutional
Investors under the Offer in accordance with the
terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
17.2 A summary of the principal terms of the
Underwriting Agreement are set out as follows:
• The Underwriters may terminate
their respective obligations under the
Underwriting Agreement, including by
reason of certain specified events which
have, or are likely to have, a material adverse
effect on Air New Zealand, the Shares or the
Offer. These may be as a result of events
specific to Air New Zealand or as a result
of external events. The Underwriters may
also terminate the Underwriting Agreement
where certain conditions to the Underwriting
Agreement or their underwriting obligations
have not been satisfied or waived, including
if the Crown fails to perform its obligations
under the Crown Participation.
• The scope of the termination rights
available to the Underwriters, and the
extent to which the Underwriters may
exercise those termination rights, is more
limited than would customarily be the
case in transactions of this nature. For
example, there may be certain external
events that may have an adverse impact
on Air New Zealand but which do not give
rise to a termination right. In addition, the
Underwriters may elect not to exercise
their rights to terminate the Underwriting
Agreement. In such circumstances, investors
who have submitted an Acceptance Form or
bid into the Shortfall Bookbuild will be bound
to subscribe for the relevant New Shares,
unless Air New Zealand withdraws the
relevant component of the Offer
• Air New Zealand provides certain
undertakings to the Underwriters, including
for a period until three months after the
settlement of the Offer in New Zealand, Air
New Zealand may not (and will not permit
any of its subsidiaries to):
• offer for sale or accept offers for any
Shares, allot or issue or allot any equity
securities, issue or grant any rights
or options in respect of such equity
securities, create any debt instrument or
other obligation which may be convertible
into, exchangeable for or redeemable by,
the issue of equity securities, or enter into
any agreement whereby any person may
be entitled to the allotment and issue of
any equity securities; or
• dispose of or charge, or agree to
dispose of or charge, the whole or any
substantial part of its business or enter
into any material acquisition, or material
agreement in relation to a new business
not conducted by Air New Zealand,
other than pursuant to certain limited exceptions
or with the Underwriters’ consent (which may
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
• Air New Zealand has agreed to indemnify the
Underwriters and their respective affiliates
against certain losses related to the Offer.
• Air New Zealand has given warranties in
the Underwriting Agreement, including
warranties relating to the content and
accuracy of the Offer Document, compliance
by Air New Zealand with relevant laws, the
existence of no litigation which may be
material in the context of the Offer and the
valid issue and allotment of New Shares.
• The Underwriters have the power to appoint
sub-underwriters.
• The Underwriters will be paid an agreed
underwriting fee for their services in
connection with the Offer.
18. Broker stamping fees
18.1 No investor will pay brokerage on taking up
their Rights or as a subscriber for New Shares
under the Offer.
18.2 A stamping fee of 1.0% of application monies on
New Shares allotted will be paid to NZX Firms and
ASX Brokers who submit a valid claim for a broker
stamping fee on successful Applications, subject
to a fee limit of NZ$350 per Shareholder and
an aggregate fee limit of NZ$650,000 for each
retail broker firm. This fee will be met by Air New
Zealand. Terms of the claims process are to be
separately communicated to NZX Firms and ASX
Brokers by the Underwriters.

Zealand has the right to reduce the number
of New Shares allocated to you if your Rights

Zealand to substantiate your claims, or if you
