Notice of 2024 Annual
Shareholders’ Meeting
RESOLUTION 1
Election of Director
That David Green, having been appointed
by the Board and only holding office until
the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, be
elected as a Non-Executive Director of
EROAD.
RESOLUTION 2
Election of Director
That Cameron Kinloch, having been
appointed by the Board and only holding
office until the Annual Shareholders’
Meeting, be elected as a Non-Executive
Director of EROAD.
Explanatory Note 1
Under Listing Rule 2.7.1 of the NZX Listing Rules, and
in accordance with clause 26.2 of the constitution
of EROAD, a director appointed by the Board must
not hold office (without re-election) past the next
annual meeting following the director’s appointment.
If the director is eligible, they may offer themselves
for election by shareholders at the annual meeting
following their appointment. David Green was
appointed by the Board on 1 August 2023 and, being
eligible, offers himself for election by shareholders at the
Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. David Green is a Non-
Executive Director who the Board considers to be an
Independent Director, as described in the NZX Listing
Rules.
EROAD’s total Non-Executive Director Remuneration
Fee Pool (“Fee Pool”) was approved by shareholders
as $850,000 at EROAD’s 2021 Annual Shareholders’
Meeting and was since increased to $900,000 by the
Board in accordance with NZX Listing Rule 2.11.3 (which
enabled EROAD to increase its Fee Pool by an amount
equal to the average amount being paid to its Non-
Executive Directors (excluding the Chair) following an
increase in the number of directors from the number
of directors in office at the time the Fee Pool was
approved). Individual director fees are not increasing
and remain unchanged from FY23.
David Green is paid in his local currency (being NZD)
and in line with the rates paid to EROAD’s other New
Zealand-based Non-Executive Directors.
A brief biography outlining David Green’s experience
is set out below. At the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting
a resolution to elect David Green will be put to
shareholders. The Board recommends that shareholders
vote in favour of the election of David Green.
Explanatory Note 2
Under Listing Rule 2.7.1 of the NZX Listing Rules, and
in accordance with clause 26.2 of the constitution
of EROAD, a director appointed by the Board must
not hold office (without re-election) past the next
annual meeting following the director’s appointment.
If the director is eligible, they may offer themselves
for election by shareholders at the annual meeting
following their appointment. Cameron Kinloch was

eligible, offers herself for election by shareholders at
the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. Cameron Kinloch is
a Non-Executive Director who the Board considers to
be an Independent Director, as described in the NZX
Listing Rules.
As explained above, EROAD’s Fee Pool was increased
to $900,000 in accordance with NZX Listing Rule 2.11.3
to accommodate the increased number of directors
since the Fee Pool was approved by shareholders.
Individual director fees are not increasing and remain
unchanged from FY23.
Cameron Kinloch is paid in her local currency (being
USD), consistent with the rates paid to EROAD’s other
North American-based Non-Executive Directors.
A brief biography outlining Cameron Kinloch’s history
and experience is set out below. At the Annual

Appointment of Proxy
If you do not plan to attend the meeting, you may appoint a proxy by completing
and signing ‘Step 1’ of the Proxy Form and lodge it with Computershare Investor
Services Limited. A proxy can be any person of your choice and does not have
to be a shareholder of EROAD Limited. If you return this form without appointing a
proxy or signing it, your Proxy Form will be invalid.
The Chair of the meeting, or any other director, is willing to act as proxy for any
shareholder who wishes to appoint him or her for that purpose. To do this, enter
‘the Chair’ or the name of your proxy in the space allocated in ‘Step 1’ of this form.

direction. Alternatively, you can appoint a proxy online at www.investorvote.co.nz.
Voting of your holding
Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each
item of business.
If you tick the box “discretion” on any resolution, you are directing your proxy or
representative to decide how to vote on that resolution on your behalf. If you
tick the “abstain” box on any resolution, you are directing your proxy or
representative not to vote on that resolution. If you return this Proxy Form
without a direction as to how to vote on any resolution, or if you tick more than
one box in relation to any resolution, the vote on that resolution will be treated
as “discretion” and your proxy will exercise his/her discretion as to whether to
vote and, if so, how. The Chair intends to vote discretionary proxies in favour
of Resolutions 1, 2 and 3.
Approval Thresholds
Resolutions 1 and 2 must be passed by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders,
i.e., by a simple majority of the votes of those shareholders entitled to vote and voting
