Clarification regarding NZSA endorsement of shareholder transaction

2 Cheap Cars Group Limited (NZX:2CC) has received a request from the Takeovers Panel for
clarification of the outcome of Mr Sena’s engagement with the New Zealand Shareholders
Association (NZSA) as announced to the market on 11 September 2023.

For avoidance of doubt, what Mr Sena has stated he will do following the discussions with
the NZSA is non-binding and is not contractually enforceable by the NZSA, but it is a clear
public statement of intention by Mr Sena that was proactively given in good faith.

Mr Sena has decided to adhere to three specific restrictions. He will:
 Not utilise the ‘creep’ provisions of the Takeovers Code for a period of three years
from the date of the share acquisition.
And whilst 2CC is a listed company, he will:
 Maintain a majority of independent directors on the Board; and
 Enable consultation with minority shareholders and their representatives prior to the
appointment of future independent directors.

With regard to the third point, the precise consultation mechanism with minority
shareholders and their representatives is yet to be determined with the NZSA, but will be
announced to the market at the appropriate time.

The 2CC Annual Shareholder Meeting is being held at Ellerslie Event Centre and online at
https://meetnow.global/nz on 28 September 2023 from 10am.
