Details of transactions and events giving rise to relevant event

On 17 November 2023, Akarua Sub Trust entered into a share sale agreement (SSA) (attached to

this notice) with Wanaka Partners, LLC (WPLLC) under which WPLLC agreed to sell, and Akarua

Sub Trust agreed to purchase, 14,830,687 ordinary shares in WIN (Sale Shares) at NZ$2.50 per

share (Transaction). The Transaction comprises a transfer of the Sale Shares in two tranches.

Settlement of the first tranche of the Sale Shares, being 7,839,521 Sale Shares, is expected to be

effected on or around 1 December 2023. The sale of the second tranche of Sale Shares, being

6,991,166 Sale Shares, is conditional on the approval of WIN shareholders being obtained by an

ordinary resolution under rule 7(c) of the Schedule to the Takeovers Regulations 2000

(Shareholders' Approval) and consent being obtained in accordance with WIN’s Securities Trading

Policy (Consent to Trade) (as individuals associated with Akarua Sub Trust and WPLLC are

directors or alternate directors on the WIN board). Pursuant to the SSA, and subject to obtaining

Shareholders' Approval and Consent to Trade, it is expected that the settlement of the second

tranche of Sale Shares will occur 10 business days after obtaining Shareholders' Approval and

Consent to Trade.

There has been no change to the relevant interests held by the Akarua Sub Trust, MREMAL, the

2023 Investor Entities and Al Sariya in relation to a restricted security agreement over WIN shares

for which Korama Limited is the registered holder.

Details after relevant event

Details for MREMAL, the 2023 Investor Entities and Al Sariya – in relation to the Total Shares

Nature of relevant interest(s):

Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited as custodian for the Akarua Sub Trust is the registered holder

of the IPO Shares and will become the registered holder of the Sale Shares when the transfers of

the relevant tranches are completed as described above.

MREMAL has a relevant interest in the Total Shares by virtue of (in some circumstances) having

the power to control the acquisition of the Sale Shares, or the disposal of the IPO Shares and

(following completion of the relevant tranches) the Sale Shares, by the Akarua Sub Trust.

MREMAL’s relevant interest arises under an investment management contract under which


3

MREMAL manages the Akarua Sub Trust. That investment management contract need not be

disclosed with this notice (in accordance with regulation 142 of the FMC Regulations).

The 2023 Investor Entities will, following completion of the relevant tranches, be the beneficial

owners of the Sale Shares and, together with other entities, are the beneficial owners of the IPO

Shares. In some circumstances, they have (or will have, as applicable) the power to control the

disposal of the Total Shares by the Akarua Sub Trust. MREIH also has a right to instruct MREMAL

to the extent it acts as trustee for Staff Investors. The 2023 Investor Entities’ relevant interests

(other than as beneficial owners of the IPO Shares and the future beneficial owners of the Sale

Shares) arise under investment management contract(s), which need not be disclosed with this

notice (in accordance with regulation 142 of the FMC Regulations).

Material investment decisions in respect of TC Feeder LP are made by Al Sariya under an

investment management contract which need not be disclosed with this notice (in accordance

with regulation 142 of the FMC Regulations), so Al Sariya (in some circumstances) has the power

to control the disposal of the IPO Shares and will (in some circumstances) have the power to

control the disposal of the Sale Shares.

For that relevant interest,—

(a) number held in class: 66,284,251

(b) percentage held in class: 22.347%

(c) current registered holder(s): Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited in respect of the IPO

Shares; Wanaka Partners, LLC in respect of the Sale Shares

(d) registered holder(s) once transfers are registered: Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited

For a derivative relevant interest, also—

(a) type of derivative: Not applicable

(b) details of derivative: Not applicable

(c) parties to the derivative: Not applicable

(d) if the substantial product holder is not a party to the derivative, the nature of the relevant

interest in the derivative: Not applicable

Details for Akarua Sub Trust, MREMAL, the 2023 Investor Entities and Al Sariya – in relation to the

Korama Shares

Nature of relevant interest(s):


The relevant interest in respect of the Korama Shares arises under the restricted security

agreement between Korama Limited and WIN, under which Korama Limited agrees not to dispose

of more than 10% of the shares held by it at the date of quotation of WIN’s ordinary shares, in a

period which in part depends on the number of IPO Shares held by the Akarua Sub Trust. A copy

of that agreement is attached to the event disclosure given by WIN on 17 December 2021.

Because of the arrangements referred to above in respect of the Total Shares, each of the Akarua

Sub Trust, MREMAL, the 2023 Investor Entities and Al Sariya therefore has a relevant interest in

the Korama Shares as well.

For that relevant interest,—


(a) number held in class: 146,333,700

(b) percentage held in class: 49.335%

(c) current registered holder(s): Korama Limited

7. Limitation of Liability

7.1 Limitation of Liability: The maximum aggregate liability of the Vendor to the Purchaser in

respect of any Claim against the Vendor in respect of the warranties in clause 6.1 or otherwise

arising under this agreement shall not exceed the Purchase Price.

7.2 Thresholds and time limits: The Vendor will not be liable for any Claim unless the Purchaser

has given written notice of the Claim (including reasonable details of the facts, matters and

circumstances giving rise to the Claim to the extent the Purchaser is aware of them) to the

of the TC Akarua Sub Trust (Aus) (the Trust) at the time the liability is enforced, which are in

the hands of the Trustee as trustee and available to the Trustee by way of indemnity. However,

if due to a breach of trust involving the dishonesty, wilful misconduct or gross negligence of

the Trustee, any party claiming under or in connection with this agreement is unable to

recover from the assets for the time being of the Trust all or any money properly payable to

that party, then that party may seek to recover that money from the assets of that Trustee.

Trust assets has been diminished due to the breach of trust.
