PROCEDURAL NOTES
Voting
All resolutions are ordinary resolutions. An ordinary resolution is a resolution passed by a simple majority (greater
than 50%) of the votes of those shareholders entitled to vote and voting on the resolutions online or by proxy.
Results of the voting will be available after the conclusion of the Meeting and will be notified to the NZX.
Casting your Vote
You may cast your vote in one of two ways described below. You may abstain from voting on the resolution.
All shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting or to appoint a proxy (who need not be a
shareholder of the Company) to attend and vote on their behalf.
Appointing a proxy:
You may appoint a proxy to attend the Meeting and vote on your behalf. Visit https://investorcentre.
linkmarketservices.co.nz/voting/NZL to lodge your proxy.
Proxies
A proxy does not need to be a shareholder of NZL.
The Chair of the Meeting (Mr. Rob Campbell) and any of the other Directors are prepared to act as proxy. Where
any Director is appointed as a discretionary proxy, each of the directors intends to vote in favour of the Resolution.
If you do not name a person as your proxy (but have otherwise completed the Proxy Form in full) or your named
proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair will be appointed your proxy and will vote in accordance with your
express direction. Any undirected votes will be voted in accordance with the Chair’s discretion.
A corporation which is a shareholder may appoint a representative to attend the Meeting on its behalf in the same
manner as it could appoint a proxy.

Appointment of proxy
A shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy or, in the case of a corporate shareholder, a representative to attend and
vote instead of him/her and that proxy or representative need not also be a shareholder.

The Chair of the meeting (Mr. Rob Campbell) and any of the other directors are willing to act as proxy for any shareholder who wishes to
appoint them for that purpose. Where the Chair or a director is appointed as a discretionary proxy, they intend to vote in favour of the
Resolution. If you do not name a person as your proxy but have indicated on this form how you wish to vote, the Chair of the Meeting will vote
in accordance with your express instructions.

Voting of your holding
If you appoint a proxy you must either direct the proxy how to vote by ticking the “For”, “Against” or “Abstain” box in respect of each resolution
OR by ticking the “Proxy Discretion” box in respect of each resolution. A shareholder can direct the proxy holder in respect of one or more
resolutions and give the proxy holder discretion in respect of other resolutions. If you tick the “Proxy Discretion” box for a particular resolution,
your proxy will decide how to vote that resolution. If you return this form without directing the proxy how to vote on any particular matter, the
proxy may vote as he/she thinks fit or abstain from voting.

Voting Restrictions
There are no voting restrictions for the Resolution.

Attending the meeting
If you are entitled to vote and wish to do so in person, you should attend the meeting and bring this form with you to the meeting.
A corporation may appoint a person to attend and vote at the Meeting as its representative in the same manner as that in which it could appoint
a proxy. That person need not also be a shareholder.
