RETAIL GREEN BOND OFFER 2023.

RETAIL GREEN BOND 20232
Dated 9 June 2023
This final terms sheet (Terms Sheet) sets out the key terms of an
issue by Mercury NZ Limited (Mercury) of $150,000,000 of 5 year
unsecured, unsubordinated, fixed rate green bonds maturing on
19 June 2028 (Green Bonds) under its master trust deed dated
4 April 2003 (as amended from time to time) (Master Trust Deed)
as modified and supplemented by the supplemental trust deed dated
6 June 2023 (together, the Trust Deed) entered into between Mercury
and The New Zealand Guardian Trust Company Limited as supervisor
(Bond Supervisor). Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised
terms used in this Terms Sheet have the same meaning as given to
them in the Trust Deed.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The offer of Green Bonds by Mercury is made in reliance upon the
exclusion in clause 19 of schedule 1 of the Financial Markets Conduct
Act 2013 (FMCA).
The offer contained in this Terms Sheet is an offer of debt securities
that have identical rights, privileges, limitations and conditions (except
for the interest rate and maturity date) as:
• Mercury’s $200,000,000 unsecured, unsubordinated, fixed
rate green bonds with an interest rate of 1.56% per annum
and a maturity date of 14 September 2027, which are currently
quoted on the NZX Debt Market under the ticker code MCY030
(MCY030 Bonds); and
• Mercury’s $200,000,000 unsecured, unsubordinated, fixed
rate green bonds with an interest rate of 2.16% per annum and
a maturity date of 29 September 2026, which are currently
quoted on the NZX Debt Market under the ticker code MCY040
(MCY040 Bonds).
Accordingly, the Green Bonds are the same class as the MCY030
Bonds and MCY040 Bonds for the purposes of the FMCA and the
Financial Markets Conduct Regulations 2014.
Mercury is subject to a disclosure obligation that requires it to notify
certain material information to NZX Limited (NZX) for the purpose of
that information being made available to participants in the market
and that information can be found by visiting:
www.nzx.com/companies/MCY.
The MCY030 Bonds and MCY040 Bonds are the only debt securities
of Mercury that are in the same class as the Green Bonds and are
currently quoted on the NZX Debt Market.
Investors should look to the market price of the MCY030 Bonds and
MCY040 Bonds referred to above to find out how the market assesses
the returns and risk premium for those bonds. When comparing the
yield of different debt securities, it is important to consider all relevant
factors (including credit rating (if any), maturity and other terms of the
relevant debt securities).
Important information
You should read the ‘Important Information’ in Schedule 3 of this
Terms Sheet.
FINAL TERMS SHEET.

RETAIL GREEN BOND 20233
IssuerMercury NZ Limited (Mercury).
Description of
Green Bonds
Unsecured, unsubordinated, fixed rate green bonds (Green Bonds).
Term5 years, maturing 19 June 2028 (Maturity Date).
Issue Amount$150,000,000.
Credit Ratings
Mercury’s current Issuer Credit Rating includes a one-notch uplift from the company’s stand-alone
credit profile of ’bbb’, reflecting the legislated majority ownership by the Crown. The Crown does not
guarantee the Green Bonds and is under no obligation to provide financial support to Mercury.
A credit rating is an independent opinion of the capability and willingness of an entity to repay its
debts (in other words, its creditworthiness). It is not a guarantee that the financial product being
offered is a safe investment. A credit rating should be considered alongside all other relevant
information when making an investment decision.
A credit rating is not a recommendation by any rating organisation to buy, sell or hold Green Bonds.
The above credit ratings are current as at the date of this Terms Sheet and may be subject to
suspension, revision or withdrawal at any time by S&P Global Ratings.
PurposeThe proceeds of this offer are intended to be earmarked to finance or refinance new or
existing projects and expenditures relating to renewable energy and other eligible projects
(Eligible Projects), in accordance with Mercury’s Green Financing Framework dated August 2020
(as amended from time to time) (the Green Financing Framework). In particular, as at the date of
this Terms Sheet, Mercury expects to apply the net proceeds of the offer to refinance existing debt,
and to track an amount equal to the net proceeds within its systems, earmarked to Eligible Projects.
The Green Financing Framework provides for net proceeds of green financing (including the
Green Bonds) to be no greater than Mercury’s debt obligation to the pool of Eligible Projects,
and the total value of Eligible Projects to be at least equal to the original principal amount of
total green financing.
A copy of the Green Financing Framework is available on Mercury’s website at
www.mercury.co.nz/green-bonds
The Bond Supervisor has no obligations in relation to the application of the proceeds
of the Green Bonds.

S&P Global RatingsBBB+ (stable)BBB+

RETAIL GREEN BOND 20234
The Green Bond
Principles and Climate
Bonds Standard
Mercury has developed and adopted the Green Financing Framework to ensure that, as at the date
of this Terms Sheet, its processes for identifying Eligible Projects and managing the use of the
proceeds of the Green Bonds are consistent with the Green Bond Principles (as amended from time
to time, the Green Bond Principles) as published by the International Capital Market Association
and the Climate Bonds Standard (as amended from time to time, the Climate Bonds Standard),
implemented by the Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI).
Mercury has obtained programmatic certification of its green bonds from CBI. Programmatic
certification requires Mercury to obtain independent annual verification of all issuances under
Mercury’s green bond programme for the duration of the programme. Mercury has also obtained
specific CBI pre-issuance certification of the Green Bonds to be issued.
Copies of the CBI certifications and limited assurance conclusions from an independent verifier,
DNV GL Business Assurance Australia Pty Ltd are available on Mercury’s website at
www.mercury.co.nz/green-bonds
No Event of Default
in relation to Green
Financing Framework,
Green Bond Principles
or Climate Bonds
Standard
If:
• Mercury fails to earmark the proceeds of the Green Bonds as described in this Terms Sheet
or the Green Financing Framework;
• Mercury fails to comply with the Green Financing Framework;
• Mercury undertakes non-Eligible Projects outside of the Green Financing Framework;
• Mercury fails to comply with any environmental laws and standards in respect of the Eligible
Projects or otherwise;
• the Green Bonds cease to satisfy the Green Bond Principles or the Climate Bonds Standard;
• Mercury fails to maintain CBI certification of the Green Bonds; or
• Mercury fails to notify holders of Green Bonds (Bondholders) that the Green Bonds cease
to comply with the Green Financing Framework, the Green Bond Principles or the
Climate Bonds Standard,
then:
• no Event of Default will occur in relation to the Green Bonds; and
• neither you nor Mercury have any right for the Green Bonds to be repaid early.
Mercury’s obligations under the Trust Deed are not affected by the labelling of the Green Bonds as
green bonds, and any breach of the Trust Deed (including in relation to non-compliance with any
laws, directives and consents, whether environmental or otherwise) is to be determined without
regard to any such green bond label, the Green Financing Framework, the Green Bond Principles
or the Climate Bonds Standard. Should any of the above scenarios occur (or market practices,
standards, principles or regulations further develop in a way that the Green Bonds are not consistent
with):
• the Green Bonds may cease to be labelled as green bonds but will remain unsecured,
unsubordinated fixed rate bonds. If the Green Bonds cease to be labelled as green bonds,
then Mercury will make a public statement as such, and from that point in time, the Green
Financing Framework will no longer govern the management of the bonds. This means there is
no legal obligation on Mercury to comply with the Green Financing Framework, the Green Bond
Principles or the Climate Bonds Standard on an ongoing basis; and
• Bondholders that invested in Green Bonds on the basis of the green label or compliance with
green principles or standards may consider that the bonds no longer align with their intentions
or requirements. Bondholders looking to sell their bonds at that time may have increased
difficulty finding interested buyers or obtaining an acceptable price.

RETAIL GREEN BOND 20235
Issue Price$1.00 per Green Bond, being the Principal Amount of each Green Bond.
Interest Rate5.64% per annum, being the sum of the Swap Rate on the Rate Set Date
and the Issue Margin.
Issue Margin1.05% per annum.
Swap Rate
The mid-market rate for an interest rate swap of a term matching the period from the Issue Date to
the Maturity Date as calculated by the Arranger in conjunction with Mercury, according to market
convention, with reference to Bloomberg page ICNZ4 (or any successor page) on the Rate Set Date
(rounded to 2 decimal places, if necessary, with 0.005 rounded up).
Interest PaymentsSemi-annual in arrear in equal amounts on 19 June and 19 December in each year (or if that day is
not a Business Day, the next Business Day and no adjustment will be made to the amount payable
as a result in the delay of payment) until and including the Maturity Date, with the First Interest
Payment Date being 19 December 2023.
Record Date5.00pm on the date that is 10 calendar days before the relevant scheduled Interest Payment
Date (prior to any adjustment to the Interest Payment Date to fall on a Business Day). If the record
date falls on a day which is not a Business Day, the record date will be the immediately preceding
Business Day.
Financial CovenantMercury agrees to ensure that Net Worth (being total assets less total liabilities of Mercury and its
subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, calculated in accordance with the Master Trust Deed) at any
time will not be less than $500 million.
No GuaranteeMercury is the issuer and the sole obligor in respect of the Green Bonds. None of the Crown,
any subsidiary of Mercury or any other person guarantees the Green Bonds.
Mercury has some guaranteed liabilities to USPP noteholders and banks (Guaranteed Liabilities).
The Guaranteed Liabilities are unsecured but (unlike Bondholders) those creditors have the
benefit of guarantees from certain subsidiaries of Mercury so may also claim directly against
those subsidiaries.
RankingOn a liquidation of Mercury, the Green Bonds will rank as unsecured and unsubordinated
obligations of Mercury and will rank:
• below any secured liabilities and liabilities which are preferred by law;
• equally with Guaranteed Liabilities, however (unlike Bondholders, as described above) the
creditors of Guaranteed Liabilities have the benefit of guarantees from certain subsidiaries of
Mercury so may also claim directly against those subsidiaries;
• equally with (and will be repaid at the same time and pro rata with) all other unsecured and
unsubordinated liabilities of Mercury, such as those owing to other Bondholders; and
• ahead of Mercury’s subordinated liabilities (including capital bonds) and shareholders.
SecurityThe Green Bonds are not secured.

OTHER INFORMATION.

RETAIL GREEN BOND 202310
The certification of the Green Bonds as Climate Bonds by the
Climate Bonds Initiative is based solely on the Climate Bond
Standard and does not, and is not intended to, make any
representation or give any assurance with respect to any other
matter relating to the Green Bonds or any Eligible Project, including
but not limited to the Terms Sheet, the transaction documents,
Mercury or the management of Mercury.
The certification of the Green Bonds as Climate Bonds by the
Climate Bonds Initiative was addressed solely to the board of
directors of Mercury and is not a recommendation to any person
to purchase, hold or sell the Green Bonds and such certification
does not address the market price or suitability of the Green Bonds
for a particular investor. The certification also does not address the
merits of the decision by Mercury or any third party to participate
in any Eligible Project and does not express and should not be
deemed to be an expression of an opinion as to Mercury or any
aspect of any Eligible Project (including but not limited to the
financial viability of any Eligible Project) other than with respect to
conformance with the Climate Bonds Standard.
In issuing or monitoring, as applicable, the certification, the Climate
Bonds Initiative has assumed and relied upon and will assume
SCHEDULE 1 – CBI DISCLAIMER.
and rely upon the accuracy and completeness in all material
respects of the information supplied or otherwise made available
to the Climate Bonds Initiative. The Climate Bonds Initiative
does not assume or accept any responsibility to any person for
independently verifying (and it has not verified) such information
or to undertake (and it has not undertaken) any independent
evaluation of any Eligible Project or Mercury. In addition, the
Climate Bonds Initiative does not assume any obligation to conduct
(and it has not conducted) any physical inspection of any Eligible
Project. The certification may only be used with the Green Bonds
and may not be used for any other purpose without the Climate
Bonds Initiative’s prior written consent.
The certification does not and is not in any way intended to
address the likelihood of timely payment of interest when due on
the Green Bonds and/or the payment of principal at maturity or
any other date.
