Details of transactions and events giving rise to relevant event

Details of the transactions or other events requiring disclosure:

The change in total percentage held by Z has reduced since the last disclosure due to Z not acquiring

additional shares in certain capital raises undertaken by CHI following the date of Z’s last disclosure.

On 19 March 2025, Z entered into a letter agreement (the "Agreement") with Macquarie Securities (NZ)

Limited (the "Underwriter") under which Z appointed the Underwriter to underwrite, sell and manage

the disposal of all of the 51,960,374 ordinary shares in CHI currently held by Z. A copy of the Agreement
which comprises 18 pages is attached to this notice.

Pursuant to the Agreement, all of the 51,960,374 ordinary shares in CHI held by Z have been allocated

to investors, at a sale price of $1.84 per ordinary share, with settlement expected to occur on 24 March

2025. Settlement of the transaction is underwritten and guaranteed by the Underwriter.

As a consequence of those allocations and the Agreement, there is a qualification on the power of Z to

dispose of, or control the disposal of, such shares.

Settlement of this sale is expected to occur on 24 March 2025.
