not be a shareholder. If a shareholder
wishes to appoint a proxy, then the proxy
form, completed by the shareholder,
must be received no later than 10:00am

form is to be sent to Computershare

The Chair is willing to act as a proxy
on behalf of shareholders for any
shareholder who may wish to appoint
him for that purpose. In addition, where
a shareholder does not name a person
as their proxy but otherwise completes
the proxy form in full, or where
a shareholder’s named proxy does not
attend the meeting, the Chair will act
as that shareholder’s proxy and will vote
in accordance with that shareholder’s
express direction. The Chair intends to
vote proxies for which he has discretion,
and for which he has authority to vote,
in favour in respect of all the resolutions.
Explanatory notes
Explanatory note to resolution 1
NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1, requires that the Company’s Directors must
not hold office (without re-election) past the third Annual Meeting
of Shareholders following their appointment or three years,
whichever is longer. Therefore, Benedikt Mangold will retire
at this year’s Annual Meeting.
Explanatory note to resolution 2
Deloitte has been the auditor for T&G Global Limited since the 2012
financial year and will be automatically reappointed at this Annual
Meeting unless there is a resolution or other reason for the auditor not
to be reappointed. The Company wishes Deloitte to continue as the
Company’s auditor, and Deloitte has indicated its willingness to do so.
The auditor’s fees and expenses must be fixed by the Company
at the Annual Meeting, or in the manner that the Company determines
at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, shareholders are being asked
to resolve that the Directors be authorised to fix the fees and expenses
of Deloitte for the audit of the Company’s financial statements
for the year ending 31 December 2023.
Benedikt joined the BayWa Group in 2011 and is CEO of BayWa
Global Produce GmbH - Munich, which is the majority shareholder
of T&G Global Limited. Prior to this position, Benedikt spent
three years in New Zealand working for T&G as an export trader
before moving into the role of Head of Strategic Planning and
Transformation at T&G’s International Business Unit. Benedikt is
a Director of Profruit Investments (Pty) Ltd - Tzaneen and Chair
and Director of BayWa Obst GmbH & Co. KG - Kressbronn.
Benedikt has been a Director of T&G Global since September 2019
and was appointed Chair in June 2021.
Mr Benedikt Mangold
being eligible, offers himself
for re-election. The Board
has determined that Benedikt
Mangold is a not an Independent
Director in accordance with
the NZX Listing Rules.

prior to the Annual Meeting by email to
