Each resolution is proposed as an ordinary resolution and, to be
passed, requires approval by a simple majority of votes of the
shareholders of My Food Bag who are entitled to vote on the
resolution and who exercise their right to vote. No person is subject
to any voting restriction in relation to any of these resolutions.
Resolutions 1 to 3: Re-election of Sarah Hindle and Jennifer Bunbury and
election of Mark Powell
Resolution 4: Auditor’s remuneration
The current auditor of My Food Bag, EY, will be automatically reappointed as My Food Bag’s auditor at the annual meeting in
accordance with section 207T of the Companies Act 1993. Under that legislation, the auditor’s fees and expenses must be
fixed at the annual meeting or in the manner that the company determines at the meeting. Shareholder approval is therefore
sought for the Directors of My Food Bag to fix EY’s fees and expenses for the ensuing financial year. The Board unanimously
supports this resolution and recommends that you vote in favour of it at the meeting.

MY FOOD BAG’S 2023 ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING
EXPLANATORY
notes
As required by NZX Listing Rule 2.7.1, Sarah Hindle, Jennifer Bunbury and Mark Powell each retire and, being eligible,
offer themselves for re-election/election. The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of these
resolutions. Each individual is considered by the Board to be an independent director.
Resolution 3 refers to the election of Mark Powell (rather than a re-election), recognising that Mr Powell was appointed as a
director of My Food Bag by the Board after last year’s annual meeting and therefore stands for election by the shareholders
for the first time at this upcoming annual meeting.
MY FOOD BAG’S 2023 ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING

venue or virtually through the Virtual Meeting Platform at www.
virtualmeeting.co.nz/mfb23. If you attend the meeting virtually,

questions online using your smartphone, tablet or computer. It

Proxies and corporate representatives
Any shareholder of My Food Bag who is entitled to attend
and vote at the Annual Meeting may appoint a proxy (or a
representative in the case of a corporate shareholder) to attend
the meeting and vote on their behalf. A proxy need not be a
shareholder of My Food Bag.
If you appoint a proxy, you may either direct your proxy how
to vote for you, or you may give the proxy discretion to vote
as he or she sees fit. If you wish to give your proxy discretion,
then you should make the appropriate election, either on the
proxy form or online, to grant your proxy that discretion. You
will be deemed to have given your proxy discretion if you do
not make an election in relation to any resolution in this Notice
of Meeting. The Chair of the meeting is willing to act as proxy
for any shareholder who appoints him for that purpose. If you
appoint the Chair of the meeting as your proxy and do not
direct him how to vote (or grant him discretion) in the proxy
form, the Chair will vote in favour of resolutions 1 to 4 in this
Notice of Meeting.
If, in appointing your proxy, you do not name a person as your
proxy (either online or on the proxy form that is lodged with
Link Market Services), the Chair of the meeting will be your
proxy and may only vote in accordance with your express
direction.
If a shareholder has appointed a proxy, that shareholder can
still attend the meeting, but they will not be able to vote if a
proxy has been appointed to vote on their behalf.

allows shareholders to vote on the resolutions notified in this
Notice of Meeting and to submit questions in advance of the
meeting.
Shareholders that wish to appoint a proxy should complete
the enclosed proxy form and return it to Link Market Services
Limited by email or mail as set out in the proxy form.
