Dear MCK Shareholder,

We are pleased to confirm CDL Hotels Holdings New Zealand Limited ("CDLHH NZ"), a subsidiary of

Singapore Stock Exchange listed City Developments Limited ("“CDL"), is making an offer to acquire all

the ordinary shares in Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (“MCK”) that it does not

already hold, being 24.14% of the ordinary shares, at an offer price of $2.25 per ordinary share (the

“Offer’).

On 29 October 2024, CDLHH NZ increased its shareholding in the ordinary shares of MCK to 75.86%

via the acquisition of a 5% stake from a nominee on behalf of abrdn plc (“abrdn’) at a price of $1.73

per ordinary share. The transaction resulted in CDLHH NZ increasing its shareholding of the ordinary

shares by the maximum permitted in a 12-month period under the Takeovers Code "Creep Provisions".

CDL believes that the Offer is fair and in the best interests of MCK shareholders to accept, noting the

Offer:

represents a:

o 25.0% premium to the last close of $1.80 on 17 January 2025;

o 28.4% premium to the 1-month volume weighted average ordinary share price of

$1.751;

o 29.7% premium to the 3-month volume weighted average ordinary share price of

$1.741; and

o price in line with the two-year high price of $2.25 on 8 February 2023;

— delivers certainty of value to shareholders in an uncertain global operating and economic

environment:

— is unlikely to be matched by any competing bidders, in our view reflecting both CDLHH NZ's

existing control of MCK and the premium price being offered; and

- provides liquidity for shareholders to realise their investment in ordinary shares at a premium

over the prevailing trading price without incurring brokerage, which may not otherwise be

possible given the low trading liquidity of the shares.

We have been a supportive shareholder of MCK for the duration of its period as a listed entity,

maintaining our majority shareholding since listing in 1999. We continue to be supportive of MCK’s

strategy and acknowledge that there is a hotel refurbishment programme ongoing, requiring a greater

level of investment in MCK’s assets which have aged.

We can confirm that there are no intended changes to MCK’s management team, and that MCK's

headquarters will remain based in Auckland, New Zealand. It is intended to maintain business as usual

for all staff, customers and suppliers.

Certain shareholders also hold MCK’s redeemable preference shares, listed on the NZX Main Board
under the ticker 'MCKPA' (the “Preference Shares”). The Preference Shares are not covered under the

Takeovers Code and are accordingly not included in the Offer. To provide those investors with

Preference Shares the ability to sell, CDLHH NZ is willing to acquire the Preference Shares at $1.70

per share via its broker, Craigs Investment Partners Limited, through buying on the NZX Main Board.

CDLHH NZ may also elect to seek to have the Preference Shares issued by MCK redeemed, if CDLHH

NZ is successful in acquiring all of the outstanding ordinary shares pursuant to the Offer.

MCK holds a controlling 65% interest in CDL Investments New Zealand Limited, which is listed on the

NZX Main Board under the ticker ‘CDI' (“CDI”). We confirm that CDI is not the subject of this Offer.

CDLHH N2's current intention is to maintain MCK’s shareholding in CDI and has no current intention to

make an offer for the shares of CDI.

The Offer is subject to a number of conditions, including that sufficient acceptances under the Offer are

obtained so that CDLHH NZ holds or controls 80% or more of the ordinary shares in MCK and that

Overseas Investment Office consent is obtained for CDLHH NZ to acquire 100% of the ordinary shares

of MCK. CDLHH NZ may waive any or all of those conditions, including but not limited to the 90%

minimum acceptance condition under the Offer, in whole or in part, and on any terms in its discretion.

We hope that you choose to accept the Offer and we encourage you to read the Offer documentation

carefully before you do so. Unless it is extended in accordance with the Takeovers Code, the Offer will

close at 5.00pm on 8 May 2025. We encourage you to accept the Offer as soon as possible.

aggregate and/or disregard any acceptance of this Offer procured by that Broker

purpose or with the effect of enabling parties to take advantage of the

arrangements summarised in this paragraph 4.7;


8

3474-6158-3669 v1

Nature of the conditions of this Offer

6.3 Each condition in paragraphs 6.1 and 6.2 is a separate and independent condition and is

solely for CDLHH NZ's benefit. CDLHH NZ may waive any or all of those conditions, in

whole or in part, and on any terms in its discretion. If CDLHH NZ waives a condition, in

whole or in part, the waiver will apply only in accordance with its terms and will not operate

as a waiver of or consent to any similar matter or thing. No other person has any right to

waive any condition.

6.4 Where any condition set out in paragraph 6.1 or 6.2 requires a determination as to whether

a matter is or could reasonably be expected to be material or not (including whether a

matter will have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect or

not), is adverse or not, is reasonable or not, is onerous or not, is long term or not, is normal

or not, is abnormal or not, is usual or not, is unusual or not, is in the ordinary course of

business or not, is consistent or not, is of a formal or technical (and not substantive) nature

or not, or any similar determination required in relation to any such condition, before the

condition may be invoked, such determination must (unless the determination does not

depend on the judgement of CDLHH NZ or any associate of CDLHH NZ (excluding any

member of the MCK Group or the CDI Group)) be made by a suitably qualified expert

nominated by CDLHH NZ who is independent of, and not an associate of, CDLHH NZ.

This Offer will only proceed if it becomes unconditional in all respects

6.5 The Offer will only proceed, and you will only be paid for your Shares to be taken up under

this Offer, if each of the conditions set out in paragraphs 6.1 and 6.2 is satisfied or waived

by CDLHH NZ and CDLHH NZ declares the Offer unconditional. If this does not occur,

the Offer will lapse and paragraph 5.15 will apply.

6.6 CDLHH NZ agrees that it will as soon as practicable following (and in any case within two

working days of) satisfaction (or waiver) of the last to be satisfied (or waived) of the

conditions in paragraph 6.1, and provided that no event or circumstance has occurred

which results in any of the conditions in paragraph 6.2 not being satisfied or fulfilled (and

which has not been waived by CDLHH NZ) and provided that CDLHH NZ is not

investigating on reasonable grounds whether any such event or circumstance has

occurred, waive the conditions in paragraph 6.2 and declare the Offer unconditional and

provide written notice of that fact to MCK, the Takeovers Panel and NZX. If CDLHH NZ

is investigating whether any such event or circumstance has occurred then, if on

completion of that investigation no such event or circumstance has occurred, CDLHH NZ

will waive the conditions in paragraph 6.2 and declare the Offer unconditional and provide

written notice of that fact to MCK, the Takeovers Panel and NZX.


14

3474-6158-3669 v1



When CDLHH NZ will not rely on a condition

6.7 CDLHH NZ will not allow the Offer to lapse:

(a) in unreasonable reliance on a condition of the Offer; or

(b) in reliance on a condition of the Offer that restricts MCK or the MCK Group's

activities in the ordinary course of MCK or the MCK Group's business during the

period commencing on the Notice Date and ending on the Condition Date.

7. HOW CDLHH NZ WILL SETTLE THIS OFFER AND PAY YOU

7.1 CDLHH NZ will pay you for your Shares taken up under this Offer in accordance with

paragraph 3 and this paragraph 7 if:

(b) your Acceptance is in order (or CDLHH NZ rectifies any errors in or omissions

from your Acceptance or otherwise accepts your Acceptance as valid under

paragraph 4.5).

7.2 CDLHH NZ will pay you for your Shares by making an electronic funds transfer to a New

Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand registered bank specified by you in the

Acceptance.

7.3 However, if:

(a) your desired account is not a New Zealand dollar account with a New Zealand

registered bank; or

(b) the details that you provide to CDLHH NZ are not sufficient for CDLHH NZ to

make an electronic funds transfer to your desired account,

CDLHH NZ may choose to pay you by electronic funds transfer to any existing New

Zealand dollar account that you have advised to MCK's share registrar (such as for

dividend payments) which is known by CDLHH NZ.

7.4 If CDLHH NZ chooses to make payment to you in accordance with paragraph 7.3:

(a) CDLHH NZ is not obliged to notify you that CDLHH NZ has done so; and

(b) CDLHH NZ will have no liability to you for its choice to do so.

7.5 In no circumstances will CDLHH NZ be liable to you for interest on any payment due to

you.

8. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Dividends and distributions

8.1 If, on or after the Notice Date, MCK authorises, declares, makes or pays any dividend or

other payment or distribution of any nature whatsoever on Shares and the condition in

paragraph 6.2(a) is waived by CDLHH NZ and the Offer otherwise becomes unconditional,

then, at the option of CDLHH NZ (and subject to the terms of any waiver), either:


15

3474-6158-3669 v1


(a) you will be bound to pay to CDLHH NZ on demand an amount equivalent to the

dividend, other payment or the value of the distribution prior to the deduction of

any withholding taxes (in each case exclusive of any imputation credits attached

to the dividend, if applicable, and in relation to a non-resident shareholder,

ignoring any supplementary dividend paid to that non-resident shareholder) that

is received by, or is properly payable to, you and relates to the Shares for which

you accept or have accepted the Offer and which are transferred to CDLHH NZ;

or

(b) the consideration which would otherwise have been paid to you for the Shares

for which you accept or have accepted the Offer and which are transferred to

CDLHH NZ will be reduced by an amount equivalent to the dividend, other

payment or the value of the distribution prior to the deduction of any withholding

taxes (in each case exclusive of any imputation credits attached to the dividend,

if applicable, and in relation to a non-resident shareholder, ignoring any

supplementary dividend paid to that non-resident shareholder) that is received

by, or is properly payable to, you and relates to the Shares for which you accept

or have accepted the Offer and which are transferred to CDLHH NZ.

8.2 If you are required to make a payment to CDLHH NZ under paragraph 8.1(a) you must

make that payment:

(a) immediately on demand, to the bank account stated in CDLHH NZ's demand;

(b) in cleared and irreversible funds; and

(c) free of deduction, set off, withholding or condition.

8.3 If a dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph 8.1 is not in cash in New Zealand

dollars then CDLHH NZ may determine the New Zealand dollar value of that dividend or

distribution. CDLHH NZ's determination will be final and will bind you and all other

persons. You may not challenge or appeal that determination, absent any manifest error

or lack of good faith in making such determination.

Bonus issues of securities

8.4 If, on or after the Notice Date, MCK authorises or makes any issue of shares, convertible

securities or other securities or financial products of any nature (including warrants,

options, convertible notes, entitlements, rights or interests in its Shares) ("Additional

Securities"), by way of bonus issue and the condition in paragraph 6.2(b) is waived by

CDLHH NZ and the Offer otherwise becomes unconditional, then, at the option of CDLHH

NZ (and subject to the terms of any waiver), either:

(a) you must transfer to CDLHH NZ, in respect of the Shares for which you have

accepted the Offer and which are transferred to CDLHH NZ, any Additional

Securities, without any additional payment or consideration; or

(b) if the Additional Securities are Shares in MCK, the Offer will extend to those

Additional Securities and the consideration payable for each Share as set out in

paragraph 2.1 will be proportionately reduced to take account of the bonus issue,

such that the total aggregate consideration payable for all Shares in MCK under

the Offer (including the Additional Securities), if accepted in full, remains the

same as it would have been had no bonus issue taken place.

Other issues of Shares

8.5 If, on or after the Notice Date, MCK authorises or makes any issue of Shares to any person

other than by way of bonus issue and the condition in paragraph 6.2(b) is waived by


16

3474-6158-3669 v1


CDLHH NZ and the Offer otherwise becomes unconditional, then the Offer will be deemed

to be extended to and include those Shares and the price payable for them will be the

price set out in paragraph 2.1.

Subdivisions and consolidations

8.6 If, on or after the Notice Date, all or any of the Shares are subdivided or consolidated by

MCK then:

(a) the Offer will be interpreted to take into account that subdivision or consolidation

and will be deemed to be for the Shares resulting from that subdivision or

consolidation;

(b) the consideration per Share offered under the Offer set out in paragraph 2.1 will

be increased or reduced, as the case may require, in proportion to that

subdivision or consolidation; and

(c) you must transfer those subdivided or consolidated Shares for which you have

accepted the Offer to CDLHH NZ on the basis of the price so increased or

reduced.

of intercompany loan from its sole shareholder (First 2000 Limited) and/or its upstream

parent company (Millennium & Copthorne Hotels Limited), which are also holding

companies of MCK. The amount of the loan is yet to be determined as the lender will lend

such amount as may be required to undertake the Offer. There are no formal loan terms

because the loan is from a holding company to its (direct or indirect) subsidiary.

11. INTENTIONS ABOUT MATERIAL CHANGES IN MCK

11.1 CDLHH NZ's intentions in respect of the particulars listed below are set out in paragraph

11.2:

(a) material changes to the business activities of MCK or its subsidiaries;

(b) material changes to the material assets of MCK or its subsidiaries;

(c) material changes to the capital structure of MCK (including MCK’s dividend policy,

raising capital and taking on debt); and

(d) any other information about the likelihood of changes to MCK or its subsidiaries that

could reasonably be expected to be material to the making of a decision by an

offeree to accept or reject the Offer.

11.2 CDLHH NZ's intentions in respect of the particulars listed in paragraph 11.1 are:

(a) While the Preference Shares are not included in the Offer, CDLHH NZ is willing to

acquire the Preference Shares at $1.70 per share via its broker, Craigs Investment

Partners Limited, through buying on the NZX Main Board.

(b) If CDLHH NZ becomes entitled to invoke the compulsory acquisition provisions of

the Takeovers Code, it intends to compulsorily acquire all of the outstanding Shares

and CDLHH NZ may also elect to seek to have the Preference Shares redeemed.

If as a result MCK is delisted from NZX, MCK will be able to save on listing fees and

other associated costs relating to the maintenance of a listed status on the NZX.

These savings can be reinvested into MCK’s portfolio of assets and operational

needs.

(c) CDLHH NZ already holds over 75% of the Shares and has representatives on the

Board of MCK. It is making the Offer to give a liquidity event for shareholders.

(d) If the Offer becomes unconditional but CDLHH NZ does not receive sufficient

acceptances under the Offer to enable the compulsory acquisition provisions of the

Takeovers Code to be invoked, CDLHH NZ does not intend to change the matters

set out in paragraphs 11.1(a) to (d).

(e) CDLHH NZ views the investment in MCK as a long-term, strategically important

business to the CDLHH NZ group with no short to medium term intention to exit. As
