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


A number of other large independent NZ waste businesses considering their succession options

WasteCo is well positioned to target a number of attractive growth opportunities in existing and adjacent industry segments and geographies in our target to achieving $100m revenue over the next 5 years
