Special resolutions – proposed changes to Synlait’s Constitution

Constitution, which will be voted on at the Annual Meeting to remain compliant with the company’s B

Corp™ certification requirements, and additional administration governance changes.


In summary, the Board proposes three changes to Synlait’s Constitution:


1. The addition of two clauses ‘2.8 Purpose Statement’ and ‘2.9 Stakeholder Consideration’ to

remain compliant with the requirements of its B Corp™ certification.


2. Remove the now redundant addition to clause 8, Schedule 1 that was adopted at the 2021

Annual Meeting to allow the Board Appointed Director to be the Chair of the Board until the

completion of the 2022 Annual Meeting; and


3. Remove clause 2, Schedule 1 as it is now redundant given the elapse of time since the

Constitution was first adopted.


Complete details of these changes can be found in the Explanatory Notes of the Synlait Notice of

Annual Meeting 2023.

Background information: What is a B Corp™?


Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and

environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and

purpose. It is the global gold standard accreditation globally for sustainability that flags to consumers

that the company is committed to considering the impact of its decisions on its workers, customers,

farmers, suppliers, community, and the environment. It is increasingly requested by our global

customers and is a competitive differentiator for Synlait in sales negotiations.


Synlait has been a certified B Corp™ since June 2020, and is the only New Zealand dairy company to

have this accreditation. These amendments are required as the final step in our B Corp™ recertification

this year.

EXPLANATORY NOTES

Explanatory Note 1

Resolution 1 – Auditor’s Remuneration

Our auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, are

automatically reappointed at the Annual Meeting under

section 207T of the Companies Act 1993. The proposed

resolution is to authorise the board to fix the fees and

expenses of the auditors for the upcoming financial year.

Explanatory Note 2

Special Resolution – Amendment of Constitution

The Board proposes amendments to the Constitution

to remain compliant with the requirements of Synlait’s

B Corp™ certification, and additional administration

governance changes.

What is a B Corp™?

Certified B Corporations™ are businesses that

meet the highest standards of verified social and

environmental performance, public transparency, and

legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.

It is the global gold standard accreditation globally

for sustainability that flags to consumers that the

company is committed to considering the impact

of its decisions on its workers, customers, farmers,

suppliers, community, and the environment. It is

increasingly requested by Synlait’s global customers,

and is a competitive differentiator in sales negotiations.

Synlait has been a certified B Corp™ since June 2020,

and is the only New Zealand dairy processor to have

this accreditation. These Constitution amendments

are required as the final step in Synlait’s B Corp™

recertification.

The proposed changes include the addition of two new

clauses, ‘2.8 Purpose Statement’ and ‘2.9 Stakeholder

Consideration’. To maintain status as a certified B Corp™,

Synlait is required to amend its Constitution to include

provisions comprising:

1. that the purpose of the company is to deliver return

to shareholders while seeking to have an overall

positive impact on society and the environment

(the “Purpose” statement); and

2. a commitment to consider the impact of decisions on

all relevant stakeholders – employees, communities,

customers, suppliers, and the environment, as well

as shareholders (the “Stakeholder” consideration).

If these Constitution amendments are not approved by

shareholders, Synlait may not be able to maintain its

B Corp™ certification in the future.

The proposed new clauses are set out below:

2.8 Purpose Statement

As a business primarily involved in dairy processing

and consumer product manufacturing, the purpose of

Synlait is to seek to deliver returns to shareholders while

seeking to have an overall positive impact on society

and the environment, including for example, through the

following means:

(a) Seeking to positively impact its customers through

the provision of safe and quality products.

(b) Seeking to positively impact its people by

supporting the development of its people and their

health, safety, and wellbeing.

Questions

Shareholders present at the Annual Meeting will have

the opportunity to ask questions. If you cannot attend the

Annual Meeting but would like to ask a question you can

email it to: investors@synlait.com or alternatively write it on

a separate sheet of paper and return it with the Proxy Form

to Computershare Investor Services Limited in the reply-paid

envelope provided.

Questions submitted in advance of the Annual Meeting need

to be submitted by 1.30pm on Wednesday 29 November

2023 (NZT). The Board will then address and answer

questions at the Annual Meeting.

Our auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, will also be at the

Annual Meeting to answer any specific queries shareholders

may have of them. Questions for the auditors should also be

sent to: investors@synlait.com or submitted with the Proxy

Form, to be received no later than 1.30pm on Wednesday

29 November 2023 (NZT).

Presentation materials

Copies of materials presented will be available on our

website and NZX and ASX websites shortly before

Synlait’s Annual Meeting commences.

SYNLAIT 2023 NOTICE OF MEETING

(c)Seeking to positively impact the environment

through investing in innovation to improve the

environmental impact from the dairy sector,

including on farm emissions. By doing so, Synlait

seeks to support its partners to create a more

sustainable dairy supply chain.

2.9 Stakeholder Consideration

In discharging their duties under this Constitution, the

Companies Act and the general law, the Directors of the

Company:

(a)will include in their consideration, where determined

relevant by the Directors, the following factors:

(i)the likely consequences of any decision or act

of the company in the long term; and

(ii)the interests of the company’s employees; and

(iii)the need to foster the company’s business

relationships with suppliers, customers and

others; and

(iv)the impact of the company’s operations on the

community and the environment; and

(v)the desirability of the company maintaining

a reputation for high standards of business

conduct; and

(vi)the interests of the shareholders of the

company; and

(vii)the ability of the company to create an overall

positive impact on society and the environment;

and

(b)Need not give priority to a particular factor referred

to in paragraph (a) over any other factor (included in

paragraph (a) or otherwise).

Additional Constitution Amendments

This proposed amendment will also mean a minor

amendment to the wording of the heading of clause 2

to read: “The Constitution, the Act and the Listing Rules”.

The Board also proposes the removal of additions

made to clause 8, Schedule 1 in 2021, regarding the

independence of the Chair of the Board. The proposed

changes remove the now redundant wording that was

only effective until the completion of the 2022 Annual

Meeting of the company.

The wording will revert back to the original wording

before the change was made, as set out below:

An Independent

Director must be the chairperson of

the Board and an Independent Director must be the

chairperson of the Audit Committee established by

the Company under the Listing Rules.

A minor amendment is also p

roposed to remove

clause 2, Schedule 1 as it is now redundant given

the elapse of time since the Constitution was first

adopted. Synlait does not propose to continue to

amend the Constitution in the event of any of the

four Bright Directors changing.

Pursuant to the Companies Act 1993, the new

Constitution must be approved by special resolution of

shareholders.

As the amendment to the Constitution does not impose

or remove a restriction on the activities of the company

or affect the rights attaching to shares, the shareholder

minority buy-out rights under the Companies Act 1993

do not apply.

A copy of the current Constitution, the new Constitution

(should Resolution 2 be passed), and a marked up copy

showing the difference between the current Constitution

and the new Constitution may be reviewed on the

company’s website at: www.synlait.com/investors

The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders

vote in favour of the amendments to the Company’s

Constitution.
