Explanatory Notes

These notes form part of the Notice of Annual Meeting

Ordinary Resolution 1: Appointment and Remuneration of Auditor

Section 207T of the Companies Act 1993 provides that a company’s auditor is automatically reappointed
unless there is a resolution or other reason for the auditor not to be re-appointed. Scales wishes Deloitte to
continue as Scales’ auditor, and Deloitte has indicated its willingness to do so.

Section 207S of the Companies Act 1993 provides that the fees and expenses of the auditor are to be fixed
in such a manner as Scales determines at the Annual Meeting. The Board proposes that, consistent with
past practice, the auditor’s fees be fixed by the directors. The Board unanimously recommends that
shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of Resolution 1.

Ordinary Resolution 2: Election of Tony Batterton

The NZX Listing Rules state directors appointed by the Board must not hold office (without election by
shareholders) past the next annual meeting following the director’s appointment. Tony Batterton
(appointed by the Board on 22 August 2023) is accordingly required to retire at this meeting. Tony, being
eligible, offers himself for election, and the Board unanimously supports his election and recommends that
shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of Resolution 2.

Having had regard to the factors described in the NZX Corporate Governance Code that may impact
director independence, the Board considers that Tony Batterton will be a Non-Executive Independent
Director.

Biography for Tony Batterton:
Term of Office: Appointed Director 22 August 2023.
Tony was previously a director of Scales from 2011 to 2014. Tony has a private equity and
investment banking background, in New Zealand with Evergreen Partners and Direct Capital, and in
