New director announced

Vector today announces the appointment of Bruce Hassall as a director effective on 31 October
2023.

This appointment follows an external review and search by the Vector Board. Mr Hassall is currently
the Chair of Fletcher Building Limited, the Chair of The Farmers’ Trading Company Limited and
Profile Group Holdings Limited, is a director of Fonterra Co-operative Group Limited, and was
formally senior partner and CEO of PwC New Zealand.

The board has determined that Mr Hassall will be an independent director. As this appointment is

tremendous commercial and governance experience to complement the capability already in place
around the Vector board table.”
