LETTER OF AGREEMENT FOR THE SALE OF SHARES IN CHANNEL INFRASTRUCTURE NZ

LIMITED

1. SALE OF SHARES

1.1 The Seller wishes to sell 31,572,640 shares (Sale Shares) in Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited (the

Company). Craigs Investment Partners Limited, its affiliates, successors and assigns, as

appropriate (Craigs) have agreed to use its best endeavours to procure bids for, and manage the

sale of, the Sale Shares (the Sale).

1.2 The Seller must comply with the timetable set out in the Schedule to this agreement (the Timetable)

(which may be amended by the Seller with the prior written consent of Craigs). All references to

dates in this agreement have the same meaning as in the Timetable and any defined terms not

otherwise defined in this agreement but defined in the Timetable have the meaning given to them in

the Timetable.

1.3 Subject to the terms of this agreement, the Seller agrees to sell its Sale Shares in accordance with

the Timetable and Craigs will manage the Sale by inviting investors to bid for the Sale Shares and

use its best endeavours to procure purchasers for the Sale Shares at prices:

(a) at or above a floor price for the Sale Shares in NZ$ (the Floor Price); and

(b) if agreed to by the parties, within a price range for the Sale Shares in NZ$ (the Agreed

Range),

2

Confidential

such Floor Price and the Agreed Range (if applicable) to be agreed in writing between the parties

on or before the date of this agreement. Purchasers may include Craigs rel ated companies (as that

term is defined in the New Zealand Companies Act 1993, read as if the expression company

includes any body corporate, wherever incorporated, each a Related Company). Craigs must agree

the initial list of potential cornerstone investors, and any subsequent potential cornerstone investors,

who will be invited to bid for the Sale Shares with the Seller in advance of any invitations being

made.

1.4 Craigs agrees to conduct a bookbuild process (Bookbuild) for the Sale Shares in accordance with

the Timetable. Craigs must use its best endeavours to maximise the price of all the Sale Shares

that are to be sold under the Bookbuild. Following the Bookbuild, and prior to allocation in

accordance with clause 1.5, the sale price for the Sale Shares (Sale Price) and the number of Sale

Shares to be sold in the Sale (Sold Shares) will be determined by the Seller, after consultation with

Craigs.

(a) the Sale Price will not be set:

(i) higher than the price at which Craigs has received binding and bona fide offers from

purchasers for all of the Sale Shares which, in the reasonable opinion of Craigs, are

capable of acceptance and will, if accepted, result in the formation of binding

agreements for the sale of all of the Sale Shares; or

(ii) lower than the Floor Price; and

(b) the number of Sold Shares will not be set lower than the number of Sale Shares in respect of

which Craigs is successful in procuring purchasers at the Sale Price.

Notwithstanding clauses 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 above, the parties may, at any time during the Bookbuild,

agree that Sale Shares will be offered at a fixed price in NZ$. In such circumstances, Craigs must

use its best endeavours to procure purchasers for the Sale Shares at that agreed fixed price (which

shall be the Sale Price for the purposes of this agreement).

1.5 Craigs agrees to provide the Seller with regular updates in relation to the progress of the Bookbuild,

including:

(a) updates on the orders for the Sale Shares obtained throughout the Bookbuild;

(b) the names of the accounts placing orders;

(c) the details of the orders, including sizes of orders, coverage ratios at different prices, the

price of any orders and/or any price limits associated with such orders and the time of the

orders;

(d) such other information as reasonably requested by the Seller from time to time.

1.6 By no later than the Trade Date, the Seller will determine after consultation with Craigs following the

Bookbuild, the allocation of the Sold Shares to persons who have bid for Sale Shares.

1.7 In consideration of Craigs performing its obligations under this agreement, the Seller agrees to pay

to Craigs fees in accordance with clause 3.

1.8 If requested by Craigs, the Seller will approach the Company promptly after this agreement is

signed and request a trading halt with a view to a trading halt being put in place as contemplated by

the Timetable.

Confidential

1.9 Craigs will not engage any third-party advisers without prior consultation with the Seller (other than

Chapman Tripp, who the parties acknowledge have been engaged as Craigs legal advisers by

Craigs at its own cost).

2. SALE AND PURCHASE OF SALE SHARES

2.1 The sale of the Sold Shares will be effected on the Trade Date in accordance with the Clearing and

Settlement Rules, with settlement to follow on a T+2 basis (the date of settlement will be referred to

as the Settlement Date). Subject to clause 7, on the Settlement Date, the Seller shall take all steps

reasonably necessary to procure settlement and Craigs shall arrange for the payment to the Seller,

or as the Seller directs, of an amount equal to the Sale Price multiplied by the number of Sold

Shares sold by the Seller, less any fees payable under clause 3 by transfer to the account

nominated by the Seller in writing for value (in cleared funds) against delivery of the Sold Shares,

provided that Craigs shall have no obligation to arrange for payment to the Seller, and the Seller

shall have no obligation to deliver the Sold Shares, to the extent that the settlement of any Sold

Shares is not successfully effected with the purchaser of those Sold Shares by 4.30pm on the

Settlement Date.

3. FEES

3.1 In consideration of performing its obligations under this agreement, Craigs will be entitled to the

fees outlined within the fee letter agreed by the parties’ dated on or about the date of this

agreement (the Fee Letter).

3.2 The fees payable under the Fee Letter are payable in New Zealand dollars on receipt by the Seller

from any amount received as agent, or deducted from any amount which it is otherwise obliged to

pay the Seller, in respect of the Sale.

terms of this agreement.

6. INDEMNITY

6.1 The Seller will keep Craigs and its Related Companies and their respective directors, officers,

partners, employees, representatives and agents (Indemnified Parties) indemnified against any

losses, damages, liabilities, costs, claims, actions and demands (including any properly incurred

expenses arising in connection therewith) (Losses) sustained or incurred in connection with this

agreement, the Sale or any breach of this agreement by the Seller (including any breach of any of

the above representations or warranties given by the Seller) and will reimburse an Indemnified

Party for all reasonable and properly incurred out of pocket costs, charges and expenses which it

may properly pay or incur in connection with investigating, disputing or defending in good faith and

on reasonable grounds any such action, demand or claim for which it is indemnified under this

agreement.

6.2 The indemnity in clause 6.1 does not extend to and is not to be taken as an indemnity against any

Losses of an Indemnified Party to the extent those Losses result from:

(a) any fraud, recklessness, wilful misconduct or negligence of that Indemnified Party as

determined by a judgment of a Court of competent jurisdiction;

(b) any penalty or fine which the Indemnified Party is required to pay for any contravention of any

applicable law; or

(c) any amount in respect of which the indemnity would be illegal, void or unenforceable under

applicable law as determined by a judgment of a Court of competent jurisdiction; or

(d) each party paying its own out of pocket costs and expenses (including any advisers' fees and

6.3 If Craigs becomes aware of any suit, action, investigation, proceedings, demand or claim in respect

of which an Indemnified Party wishes to claim for indemnification under the indemnity contained in

this clause 6, Craigs must promptly notify the Seller of the substance of that matter. The failure of

Craigs to notify the Seller pursuant to this clause will not release the Seller from any obligation or

liability which it may have pursuant to this agreement except that such liability will be reduced to the

extent to which the amount the subject of the indemnity under clause 6 has increased, as a result of

the failure to so notify.

6.4 An Indemnified Party must not admit liability in respect of all or part of, or settle, compromise,

consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any suit, action,

investigation, proceeding, demand or claim to which the indemnity in clause 6.1 relates without the

prior written consent of the Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

6.5 The indemnity in clause 6.1 is a continuing obligation, separate and independent from the other

obligations of the parties under this agreement and survives termination or completion of this

agreement. It is not necessary for an Indemnified Party to incur expense or make payment before

enforcing that indemnity, provided always that Craigs shall repay to the Seller all amounts received

8

Confidential

under the indemnity to the extent that such amount exceeds the amount of any Losses actually

incurred or paid by Craigs.

6.6 The parties agree that, for the purposes of the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, the

indemnity in clause 6.1 (as limited by clause 6.2) is intended to confer a benefit on, and be

enforceable by, each Indemnified Party (provided that this agreement may be varied by the parties

to it without the consent of any Indemnified Party).

7. TERMINATION EVENTS
