03
thl NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2023
7. Director remuneration (Resolution 7)
NZX Listing Rule 2.11.1 requires that no remuneration may be paid by the Company, or
its Subsidiaries (unless such Subsidiary is Listed), to a Director in his or her capacity as
a Director without prior authorisation by an Ordinary Resolution.
The Board recommends to shareholders that the maximum annual Directors’
remuneration payable to all Directors of thl taken together be increased from the
current level of NZ$750,000 to NZ$850,000 (plus GST, if any). This reflects a total
increase to the maximum fee pool of just under 14%.
The last increase to the Directors’ fee pool was approved by shareholders five years
ago at the 2018 Annual Meeting. The allocation of Directors’ fees were unchanged
from November 2018 until December 2022, including a period where Directors took a
50% fee reduction. In December 2022 an adjustment was made to the fees payable
(within the approved fee pool) to reflect the larger size and complexity of thl following
its merger with Apollo Tourism & Leisure Ltd.
The annual fees currently payable to directors are NZ$200,000 for the Chairperson,
NZ$100,000 for each Director, plus NZ$15,000 for the Chairperson of the Audit and
Risk Committee and NZ$10,000 for the Chairperson of each of the Remuneration and
Nomination Committee and Health, Safety and Sustainability Committee. Other than
the fees payable to the Chair of each Committee, no other fees are payable to directors
for membership on a Committee. Accordingly, the annual committed fee schedule is
NZ$735,000.
The proposed increase will allow the board to approve payments to Directors for
assuming additional responsibilities above and beyond the normal duties of either
the board or any sitting committee (the current headroom is NZ$15,000). It is also
sufficient to allow for annual inflationary adjustments to the fee schedule as required.
As is currently the case, fees may be payable, in whole or in part, through the issue of
ordinary shares in accordance with Listing Rule 4.7.1.
The board has opted not to go to the expense of commissioning an independent
director fee benchmarking report in this instance because the cost of a
comprehensive report is significant in proportion to the increase proposed and
because no recommendation is being made for a market-relative adjustment to fees
paid to any Director in relation to their normal duties (beyond the future ability to
provide for inflationary adjustments). If the proposed Director fee pool increase is
approved, the Board intends to implement an inflationary adjustment during the 2024
calendar year. The Board reserves the right to increase fees within the approved fee
pool, so that directors are paid market remuneration reflecting the size and complexity
of the Company.
Note: The two Executive Directors do not receive Director remuneration in addition to
the executive remuneration they receive as employees of the Company.
Pursuant to the NZX Main Board Listing Rules, each of the Directors of the Company
(including the Chair) and their respective Associated Persons (as defined in the NZX
Main Board Listing Rules) are disqualified from voting in favour of Resolution 7
(Director Remuneration). A person appointed as a proxy who is disqualified from
voting on a Resolution may vote in accordance with the directions of the shareholder
giving the proxy if they are not disqualified from voting, but the proxy may not
exercise a discretionary vote.
8. Auditors’ remuneration (Resolution 8)
The Company’s current auditor is PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). Due to the length
of their tenure, the Board has decided to undertake a formal request for proposal
(RFP) process for a new auditor, as a result of which PwC would resign as auditor if
a new auditor were to be appointed.
It is expected that the RFP process will be concluded prior to the Annual Meeting.
If the Board resolves to appoint a new auditor, the Company will release a market
announcement on NZX and ASX in accordance with NZX Listing Rule 3.20.1, which
would also confirm PwC’s resignation. The new auditor would then conduct the audit
of the financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2024, and both PwC and the
new auditor would attend the Annual Meeting.
If a new auditor is appointed by the Board after the RFP, they will be automatically
reappointed at the Annual Meeting under section 207T of the Companies Act 1993.
Similarly, if a new auditor is not appointed after the RFP, PwC would be automatically
reappointed at the Annual Meeting under section 207T of the Companies Act 1993.
Accordingly, as the auditor is automatically reappointed at the Annual Meeting,
resolution 8, only deals with how the auditor’s fees and expenses are approved. As
has occurred in prior years, resolution 8 authorises the Board of Directors to fix the
remuneration of the auditor (whether PwC or a new auditor, if appointed) for the
FY24 audit.
04
thl NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING 2023
Ordinary resolution
Each of Resolutions 1 to 8 must be passed as ordinary resolutions of the Company.

Procedural Matters

favour of the Resolution, except that, as noted above, the Chair is disqualified from
voting an undirected proxy in respect of Resolution 7 (Director remuneration).
Additionally, Directors standing for re-election will abstain from voting discretionary
proxies in respect of their own appointment. Such proxies will also be ineligible to vote
on motions from the floor as the discretionary proxies are not valid in this respect.

Company’s Share Registrar, Link Market Services, either by post to PO Box 91976,
Victoria Street West, Auckland 1142, by email to meetings@linkmarketservices.com, or
