GOODWOOD CAPITAL LIMITED
Annual Meeting of Shareholders – Chair’s Address
15 September 2022
INTRODUCTION
During the course of the financial year ended 31 March 2022, the Board was actively engaged in
identifying a suitable business opportunity to invest in and/or acquire through a reverse takeover
transaction.
Discussions had been had with several potential acquisition targets. On 26 April, the directors of
Goodwood announced that it reached agreement to acquire 100% of WasteCo Holdings NZ Limited,
a diversified waste, refuse and industrial services business with operations in Christchurch,
Ashburton, Timaru, Oamaru, Dunedin and Balclutha.
Further information about the WasteCo business operations will be provided after the formalities of
the meeting have concluded.

Insofar as the structure of the transaction to acquire WasteCo itself are concerned:
The value attributable to the WasteCo business operations is $25.2 million.
To satisfy the payment of the purchase price, GWC would issue 504,000,000 fully paid ordinary
GWC shares at an issue price of NZ$0.05 per share to the existing shareholders of WasteCo.
In addition, GWC will issue 80 million fully paid ordinary GWC shares at an issue price of NZ$0.05
per share to the holders of $4 million of Mandatory Convertible Notes previously issued by
WasteCo. The actual amount of new shares to be issued to the holders of MCN’s may vary if
WasteCo issues more MCN’s in the period between now and the completion of the transaction.
In conjunction with the completion of the Acquisition, $531,803 of the indebtedness owed by
GWC to Mounterowen Limited, a company associated with myself (expected to amount to circa
$650,000 by the date of the completion of the transaction) shall be capitalised into 10,636,073
fully paid ordinary GWC shares at an issue price of NZ$0.05 per share. This initiative will
extinguish the principal GWC indebtedness, and ensure that GWC is largely debt free, with the
exception of an outstanding balance of not more than $125,000 owing to Mounterowen Limited
and certain trade creditors incurred in the ordinary course of business as at the completion of
the transaction.

GWC will also look to undertake a capital raising initiative to raise $4 million of new capital
through the issue of 80 million fully paid ordinary GWC shares to wholesale investors (as defined
in the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013) at an issue price of $0.05 per share to raise
additional new capital for GWC post completion of the transaction.
After completion of the transaction, it is anticipated that the existing WasteCo shareholders will own
approximately 75% of the ordinary shares in Goodwood. 80% of the new Goodwood shares to be
issued to the existing WasteCo shareholders will be placed in escrow (with restrictions on trading) up
until the date after Goodwood announces its preliminary result to the market for the financial year
ending 31 March 2023.
The transaction is subject to approval by the shareholders of Goodwood under the NZX Listing Rules
and the Takeovers Code. We expect to send all the relevant documentation to shareholders before
the end of November, to enable you to vote on the transaction at a shareholders’ meeting shortly
thereafter.
Given the transaction constitutes a reverse listing, this means that the quotation of Goodwood
shares has been suspended pending the outcome of the transaction.
Goodwood will seek a release of the suspension once it has completed the acquisition of WasteCo.
The Board looks forward to formally presenting the WasteCo initiative to shareholders in the coming
months and are excited about the opportunity that the initiative presents.
PRESENTATION
I would now like to hand over to Shane Edmond who is both a director and shareholder of WasteCo,
and his team to provide a presentation on the business operations of WasteCo NZ to the meeting.

Current operating environment
The inflationary pressures across New Zealand have been evident at WasteCo
In particular wages and fuel have the most impact
We have been able to pass on a portion of this through pricing changes and we continue to review the operating environment
Some protection from longer term contracts that have CPI adjustments, even though they may be in arears, this has been beneficial
Margins are expected to hold up in the first half and we will ensure pricing and costs are aligned to ensure this continues into the second half
New business opportunities and customer growth remains strong and we have not seen any decline year to date. Revenue growth continues at the same rate as 2022 financial year
Most of our revenue streams are very defensive through any economic decline in particular the longer term sweeping and industrial services business
We will look to capitalise on opportunities that arise from some competitors that are experiencing margin decline and price pressures
18
Growth Strategy
Waste sector controlled by 2 international waste management companies with a national footprint in the key centres
Significant opportunities for specialist waste services in targeted sectors (e.g. B&D) with a focus on sustainability and service
WasteCo’s strategy is to actively target new contracting opportunities in regions where the incumbent has underperformed or where we can leverage our unique skills and can do
YES
driven attitude
Listing on NZX provides options for access to new capital from vendors or new investors
Significant existing acquisition opportunities including several under active review
Consolidation opportunities likely to provide significant scalability and synergy value
