1. KEY INFORMATION SUMMARY
1.1 WHAT IS THIS?
This is an offer (Offer) of subordinated convertible notes (Notes). The Notes are debt securities issued by Investore Property
Limited (Investore or Issuer). You give Investore money, and in return Investore promises to pay you interest and (subject to the
following paragraph) convert the Notes (Conversion) at the end of the term into ordinary shares of Investore (Shares). The Shares
will have a minimum value (as determined under the terms of the Notes and subject to rounding and variance between the Market
Price and the Share price on the Conversion Date) of approximately $1.02 for every $1.00 invested (and a potentially higher amount
depending on the Share price at the time of Conversion).
Rather than Converting Notes, Investore may elect to instead pay you a cash amount equivalent to the value of some or all of those
Shares as determined under the terms of the Notes (provided it meets the Payment Condition described below).
If your Notes are Converted, you may receive a return if dividends are paid on Shares or if you subsequently sell those Shares for
more than you paid for the Notes.
If Investore runs into financial trouble, you might lose some or all of the money you invested.

general corporate purposes.
1.4 KEY TERMS OF THE OFFER

•The General Offer of up to $60 million, which is open to investors resident in New Zealand
and Australian Institutional Investors.

Shareholders and Australian Institutional Investors who, as at 5.00pm on 5 September 2025,

1Large Format Retail is a term adopted by Investore to describe the nature of the property it invests in. The full definition is set out in section 14
of this PDS (Glossary). Investore is proposing to broaden the scope of its investment policy to include convenience-based retail. This is to be
considered by Shareholders at a special meeting targeted to be held on 20 October 2025.
Product Disclosure Statement - Investore Property Limited1
1. KEY INFORMATION SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
Conversion
On the Conversion Date, all outstanding Notes will be Converted into Shares, subject to the Cash
Election as described below.
The number of Shares to be issued following Conversion of each holding of Notes will be
determined by dividing their Principal Amount ($1.00 per Note) (together with any accrued and
Unpaid Interest (including any interest thereon) and less any taxes, withholdings or deductions) by
the Conversion Price, which is the lesser of:
1.the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56; and
2.a 2% discount to the Market Price (calculated as per the statement below).
The Market Price is determined based on the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted
average price of Shares traded through the NZX Main Board in the 20 Business Days prior to
(but not including) the Conversion Announcement Date, as described in section 5 of this PDS (Key
features of the Notes).
See section 5.4 of this PDS (Conversion) for a table which illustrates the number of Shares to be
issued on Conversion and the value provided at a range of possible Share prices. The examples are
for illustrative purposes only, are not forward looking statements and do not indicate, guarantee or
forecast future Share prices.
Cash Election
Rather than Converting Notes, Investore may elect instead to pay a cash amount to Noteholders at
the end of the term. In this case, Noteholders would be paid an amount equal to the Market Price
(calculated as set out above) multiplied by the number of Shares that would have otherwise been
issued to them on Conversion of their Notes. This means Noteholders would receive an equivalent
value to those Shares (as determined under the terms of the Notes) and would similarly benefit
from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is above approximately
$1.592 (being the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
See section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes) for further information.
If Investore elects to pay a cash amount in part, the partial Cash Election will be done on a
proportionate basis and may include adjustments to take account of the effect on marketable
parcels and other logistical considerations. Investore may only elect to pay the cash amount if it is
not insolvent and no event of default in respect of borrowed money is continuing (and Investore
would not become insolvent, and no such event of default would occur, as a result of making such
payment) (the Payment Condition). Investore will announce whether it intends to make a Cash
Election for any Notes via NZX on or before the Conversion Announcement Date, being the date
that is 5 Business Days before the Conversion Date.
Interest Rate
The Notes will pay a fixed rate of interest.
The Interest Rate for the Notes will be determined by Investore in conjunction with the Joint Lead
Managers following a bookbuild, and announced via NZX on or about the Rate Set Date.
Interest payments
Interest is scheduled to be paid quarterly in arrear in equal amounts on 26 March, 26 June, 26
September and 26 December each year (or if that day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day)
until and including the Conversion Date.
The first Interest Payment Date will be 26 December 2025 but as that date is not a Business Day,
the actual payment will be made on 29 December 2025 (being the next Business Day).
Interest payments may be suspended in certain circumstances as described below.
Interest suspension
Payments of interest on the Notes will be suspended if Investore does not meet the Payment
Condition (as described above) in respect of such interest.
Any suspended interest payment (Unpaid Interest) will accumulate and interest will accrue on it at
the Interest Rate (compounding on each Interest Payment Date) until paid.
Unpaid Interest is required to be paid within 5 Business Days after Investore meets the Payment
Condition. Any Unpaid Interest (including any interest thereon) will be added to the Principal
Amount on Conversion.
Distribution stopper
No dividend or other return will be made to Shareholders while any interest on the Notes
is suspended.

1. KEY INFORMATION SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
Early Conversion
The Notes may Convert prior to the Conversion Date:
•after an Event of Default;
•at the Noteholder’s option after a Compulsory Acquisition Event; or

as described in section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes).
The Cash Election does not apply to any Conversion before the Conversion Date.
Further payments, fees
or charges
Taxes may be deducted from interest payments on the Notes. See section 7 of this PDS (Tax) for
further details.
The Offer is subject to certain selling restrictions and you will be required to indemnify certain

1.5 NO GUARANTEE
The Notes are not guaranteed by any member of the Investore Group or any other person. Investore as Issuer is solely responsible
for repaying, and paying interest on, the Notes.
1.6 HOW YOU CAN GET YOUR MONEY OUT EARLY
Neither you nor any other person has a right to redeem or Convert the Notes prior to the Conversion Date, except after an Event of
Default, (at the Noteholders’ option) after a Compulsory Acquisition Event or (at Investore’s option) after a Tax Event. See section 5
of this PDS (Key features of the Notes) for further details.
Investore intends to quote these Notes on the NZX Debt Market. This means you may be able to sell them on the NZX Debt Market
before the end of their term if there are interested buyers. If you sell your Notes, the price you get will vary depending on factors
such as the financial condition of the Investore Group and movements in market interest rates. You may receive less than the full
amount that you paid for them.
As the Notes are Convertible, changes in the Share price may also affect the price you get on a sale of your Notes. Investore intends
that Shares issued following any Conversion will be quoted on the NZX Main Board. This means you may be able to sell them on the
NZX Main Board after Conversion if there are interested buyers. You may get less than you invested in the Notes upon any sale of
your Shares. The price will depend on the demand for the Shares.
1.7
HOW THE NOTES RANK FOR REPAYMENT
On a liquidation of Investore, each Note (before any Conversion) will be a subordinated obligation of Investore, ranking:
•behind all claims of all creditors of Investore (including bank borrowing, Secured Bonds, trade creditors and other liabilities),
except as described below;
•equally with other Notes, and other liabilities which are expressed to rank equally with the Notes; and
•ahead of Shareholders and other liabilities which are expressed to rank after the Notes.
Shares issued on Conversion will rank equally with all other Shares on issue and behind all other claims on Investore. Further
important information on the ranking of the Notes on the liquidation of Investore can be found in section 5 of this PDS (Key features
of the Notes).
Product Disclosure Statement - Investore Property Limited

1. KEY INFORMATION SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
1.8 NO SECURITY
The Notes are not secured against any assets of any member of the Investore Group or any other person.
1.9 KEY RISKS AFFECTING THIS INVESTMENT
Investments in debt securities have risks. A key risk is that Investore does not meet its commitments to repay you or pay you interest
(credit risk). Section 6 of this PDS (Risks of investing) discusses the main factors that give rise to the risk. You should consider if the
credit risk of these debt securities is suitable for you. The interest rate for these Notes should also reflect the degree of credit risk. In
general, higher returns are demanded by investors from businesses with higher risk of defaulting on their commitments. You need
to decide whether the Offer is fair.
Investore considers that the most significant risk factors are:
•Exposure to significant tenants: General Distributors Limited (which operates Woolworths branded supermarkets) and
Bunnings Limited are Investore’s most significant tenants, constituting approximately 59% and 21% (respectively) of
Investore’s Contract Rental as at the date of this PDS. If the performance of either materially decreases, or if either were to
default on its lease obligations, it could have a significant adverse effect on Investore’s operations and financial performance.
•Single class of property: Investore has been established to invest solely in Large Format Retail property in New Zealand.
Although Investore is proposing to amend its Management Agreement to include convenience-based retail within its
investment policy, Investore’s portfolio will remain, intentionally, undiversified and directly linked to the demand for, and
supply of, this type of property.
•Reliance on external funding and valuations: Investore's loan to value ratio of approximately 39.4%
1
is higher than some
other listed property companies, meaning it has a greater proportion of debt to property compared to those other companies.
This makes Investore more exposed to risks affecting its external funding and changes in the valuation of its portfolio could
affect compliance with external funding covenants.
•Natural disasters and regulation: Changes in regulation, as well as earthquakes and other natural disasters in the areas in
which Investore operates, may decrease demand for properties that Investore owns or increase costs to maintain, repair and
upgrade them. The costs of repairing damaged buildings, or seismically strengthening buildings, could be significant.
•Performance of external manager: Investore is reliant on the management of SIML. If SIML does not perform under the
terms of the Management Agreement, this could have a negative impact on the financial performance of Investore.
If these Notes Convert into Shares, these risks will change significantly. You should consider whether the degree of uncertainty
about the Investore Group's future performance and returns is suitable for you.
This summary does not cover all of the risks of investing in the Notes. You should also read section 6 of this PDS (Risks of investing)
and section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes).
1.10 NO CREDIT RATING
Investore’s credit worthiness has not been assessed by an approved rating agency in connection with the Notes. This means that
Investore has not received an independent opinion of its capability and willingness to repay the Notes from an approved source.
1.11 WHERE YOU CAN FIND OTHER MARKET INFORMATION ABOUT INVESTORE
This is a short-form offer document that Investore is permitted to use because both these Notes and the Shares into which they
may Convert rank at least equally with Investore’s existing Shares which are traded on the NZX Main Board (NZX: IPL). Investore is
subject to a disclosure obligation that requires it to notify certain material information to the NZX for the purpose of that information
being made available to participants in the market. Investore’s page on the NZX website, which includes information made available
under the disclosure obligation referred to above, can be found at www.nzx.com/companies/IPL.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIR
Dear Investor
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to provide you with the opportunity to invest in subordinated convertible notes to
be issued by Investore (Notes).
Investore is New Zealand’s only NZX listed company with an investment strategy focused on Large Format Retail and, if approved
by shareholders at the special meeting to be held on 20 October 2025 (
Special Meeting), convenience-based retail. The Offer
provides an opportunity to gain exposure to a property portfolio that is underpinned by characteristics such as long lease terms,
high occupancy and nationally recognised tenants.
Key attributes of Investore’s portfolio are:
•43 properties with a total portfolio valuation of approximately $1.0 billion, underpinning an NTA per share of
approximately $1.60;
•long weighted average lease term (WALT) – Investore’s portfolio WALT as at 31 March 2025 is 6.8 years;
•high occupancy rates – current portfolio occupancy is 99% of total net lettable area; and
•quality, nationally recognised tenants - key Anchor Tenants include Woolworths, Bunnings, Briscoes Group, and Mitre 10.
These attributes deliver Investore a resilient income stream and stable returns for Shareholders.
Investore’s assets and day-to-day operations are externally managed by Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML), the real
estate investment management entity whose shares are stapled with Stride Property Limited (Stride). SIML and Stride collectively
form the NZX listed Stride Property Group. SIML manages approximately $3.2 billion of property in New Zealand, $2.2 billion of
which SPL owns on a weighted look-through basis. Stride also holds an 18.83% shareholding in Investore. This shareholding helps
ensure alignment of interests between Investore and Stride Property Group.
Since listing on the NZX Main Board in July 2016, Investore has undertaken a number of initiatives designed to further enhance
portfolio quality, improve tenant diversification, and provide capacity for future growth opportunities. Within the last year, Investore
divested Pak’nSave New Plymouth, Woolworths Invercargill, Woolworths Mount Roskill and Woolworths Browns Bay for an
aggregate sales price above the most recent combined book value, and recycled capital from the sale of these properties to acquire
Bunnings Westgate and Bunnings New Lynn in Auckland.
Investore is now seeking to raise up to $62.5 million to initially repay existing bank debt. This will provide Investore with the
flexibility and additional debt capacity to fund future acquisitions that align with Investore’s strategy, including (subject to approval
by Shareholders at the Special Meeting), the purchase of the Silverdale Centre from Stride that was announced on the same date as
this Offer, and for general corporate purposes.
The Notes pay a fixed rate of interest (expected to be announced via NZX on 19 September 2025), with quarterly interest payments
over a 4-year term. In addition to interest payments, on Conversion of Notes, or payment by Investore of an equivalent cash amount
determined under the terms of the Notes under a Cash Election, Noteholders will receive a minimum value of approximately $1.02
for every $1.00 invested
1
. Noteholders will also benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is
above approximately $1.592 (being the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
The Board takes a proactive approach to capital management, maintaining a flexible balance sheet for growth. The Board believes
this Offer will strengthen Investore’s capital structure, enabling the business to execute on its strategy of targeted growth while also
diversifying its funding sources.
Eligible investors should contact their financial adviser to participate in the Offer. Eligible Shareholders can alternatively apply for
Notes directly under the Shareholder Priority Offer.
There are a number of risks that may affect returns on your investment in the Notes. An overview of the key risks is contained within
this PDS which you should read before deciding whether to invest in the Notes. You should also read the NZX announcements
issued by Investore which are referred to in section 11.3 of this PDS (NZX Disclosures). I encourage you to seek financial,
investment or other professional advice from a qualified professional advisor and that you take the time to consider this Offer.
On behalf of the Board, I look forward to your involvement in this Offer and support of Investore. For more information on the Offer,
please visit the Offer website (www.investorenotesoffer.co.nz).
Yours sincerely,
Mike Allen
Independent Chair

the Conversion Date) of approximately $1.02 for every $1.00 invested, and will benefit
from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is above

3. TERMS OF THE OFFER (CONTINUED)
Conversion
On the Conversion Date, all outstanding Notes will be Converted into Shares, subject to
the Cash Election.
The number of Shares to be issued following Conversion of each holding of Notes
will be determined by dividing their Principal Amount (together with any accrued
and Unpaid Interest (and any interest thereon) and less any taxes, withholdings or
deductions) by the Conversion Price, which is the lesser of:
1.the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56; and
2.a 2% discount to the Market Price (calculated as per the statement below).
The Market Price is determined based on the arithmetic average of the daily volume
weighted average price of Shares traded through the NZX Main Board in the 20
Business Days prior to (but not including) the Conversion Announcement Date, as
described in section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes).
This means the Conversion Price will be at a 2% discount to the Market Price, unless
the Market Price is at least approximately $1.592 in which case the Conversion Price
will be $1.56.
The Conversion Announcement Date is 5 Business Days before the Conversion Date.
The Conversion Price Cap may be adjusted in certain circumstances (see section 5 of
this PDS (
Key features of the Notes)).
Cash Election
Rather than Converting Notes, Investore may elect instead to pay a cash amount
to Noteholders at the end of the term. In this case, Noteholders would be paid an
amount equal to the Market Price multiplied by the number of Shares that would have
otherwise been issued to them on Conversion of their Notes. This means Noteholders
would receive an equivalent value to those Shares (as determined under the terms of
the Notes) and would similarly benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the
extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592 (being the Conversion Price
Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
See section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes) for further information.
If Investore elects to pay a cash amount in part, the partial Cash Election will be done
on a proportionate basis and may include adjustments to take account of the effect on
marketable parcels and other logistical considerations.
Investore may only make a Cash Election if it meets the Payment Condition in respect
of such cash amount.
Investore will announce whether it intends to make a Cash Election for any Notes via
NZX on or before the Conversion Announcement Date.
Interest Rate
The Notes will pay a fixed rate of interest.
The Interest Rate for the Notes will be determined by Investore in conjunction with the
Joint Lead Managers following a bookbuild, and announced via NZX on or about the
Rate Set Date.
Interest Payment Dates
Interest is scheduled to be paid quarterly in arrear in equal amounts on 26 March, 26
June, 26 September and 26 December each year (or if that day is not a Business Day,
the next Business Day) until and including the Conversion Date.
The first Interest Payment Date will be 26 December 2025 but as that date is not a
Business Day, the actual payment will be made on 29 December 2025 (being the next
Business Day).
Interest payments may be suspended in certain circumstances as described below.
Product Disclosure Statement - Investore Property Limited9
3. TERMS OF THE OFFER (CONTINUED)
Interest payments and entitlement
Regular payments of interest on Interest Payment Dates will be of equal quarterly
amounts. Any other payment of interest on the Notes (including Unpaid Interest
discussed below), will be calculated based on the number of days in the relevant period
and a 365-day year.
Scheduled interest payments made on each Interest Payment Date will be paid to the
person registered as the Noteholder as at the record date immediately preceding the
relevant Interest Payment Date.
The record date for interest payments is 5.00pm on the date that is 10 days before the
relevant Interest Payment Date. If the record date falls on a day which is not a Business
Day, the record date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.
Interest suspension
Payments of interest on the Notes will be suspended if Investore does not meet the
Payment Condition in respect of such interest.
Unpaid Interest will accumulate and interest will accrue on it at the Interest Rate
(compounding on each Interest Payment Date) until paid.
Unpaid Interest is required to be paid within 5 Business Days after Investore meets the
Payment Condition. Any Unpaid Interest (including any interest thereon) will be added
to the Principal Amount on Conversion.
See section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes).
Distribution stopper
No dividend or other return will be made to Shareholders while any interest on the
Notes is suspended.

Bonds, trade creditors and other liabilities), except as described below;
•equally with other Notes, and other liabilities which are expressed to rank equally
with the Notes; and
•ahead of Shareholders and other liabilities which are expressed to rank after

Shares issued on Conversion will rank equally with all other Shares on issue and behind
all other claims on Investore.

4. PURPOSE OF THE OFFER
The proceeds of this Offer (net of issue costs) are expected to be used to repay existing bank debt, providing Investore with
the flexibility and additional debt capacity to fund future acquisitions, including (subject to approval by Shareholders at a special
meeting targeted to be held on 20 October 2025), the purchase of the Silverdale Centre from Stride Property Limited, and for
general corporate purposes. This will not change, irrespective of the total amount that is raised. The Offer is not underwritten and is
not conditional on raising a minimum amount.
The acquisition of the Silverdale Centre is subject to a conditional contract with settlement proposed to occur on 31 October
2025. The Silverdale Centre is an open-air retail centre with 39 tenants. The property is anchored by everyday needs retailers
Woolworths and The Warehouse, complemented by a mix of specialty tenants that serve as "mini-anchors". The property has a
low site coverage, with approximately 23,000sqm of NLA over a 70,000sqm site meaning that the underlying landholding helps
to underpin the property valuation. The acquisition is expected to have a positive financial impact and the expected benefits of the
acquisition include:
•an expected initial yield
1
of 6.8%;
•an expected increase in pro forma Distributable Profit per Share of 3.0%;
2
•greater diversification to Investore's rental income profile, with 87% of Contract Rental at Silverdale subject to structured or
market-based rent reviews, and the balance subject to turnover-linked rental mechanisms;
3
•diversification of Investore's tenant base, reducing Investore’s largest tenant exposure, Woolworths, from 59% to 54% by
Contract Rental; and
•expansion of Investore’s geographic concentration to the Auckland region, increasing Investore’s Auckland exposure from
42% to 48% by value.
1Yield is calculated based on the annualised net Contract Rental for the Silverdale Centre divided by the purchase price.
2The expected increase in Distributable Profit has been calculated by comparing Investore's forecasted Distributable Profit for the 12 month
period to 31 October 2026 (12 months following the expected settlement of the Silverdale Centre acquisition) (a) assuming that the Offer,
Silverdale Centre acquisition and Management Agreement amendments did not occur, against (b) assuming the issue of $62.5 million of Notes,
the Silverdale Centre acquisition and the payment of the additional Silverdale Centre fees did occur.
3Turnover-linked rental mechanisms entitle Investore to additional rent when moving annual turnover at a store exceeds a specific threshold and is
determined by calculating the net sales of a 12-month period, with the calculation being completed on a rolling basis.

5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES
A number of key features of the Notes are described in section 3 of this PDS (Terms of the Offer). The other key features of the
Notes are described below.
The Trust Documents will not apply to any Shares issued following Conversion of a Note.
5.1 THE SUPERVISOR
The Supervisor is appointed to act as supervisor and trustee for the Noteholders on the terms contained in the Trust Documents.
You can only enforce your rights under the Notes through the Supervisor (although you can enforce your rights under the Notes
against Investore directly if the Supervisor is obliged to enforce, but has failed to do so).
5.2 RANKING
Ranking on liquidation
On a liquidation of Investore, each Note (before any Conversion into Shares) will be a subordinated obligation of Investore, ranking:
•behind all claims of all creditors of Investore (including bank borrowing, Secured Bonds, trade creditors and other liabilities),
except as described below;
•equally with other Notes, and other liabilities which are expressed to rank equally with the Notes; and
•ahead of Shareholders and other liabilities which are expressed to rank after the Notes.
Shares issued on Conversion will rank equally with all other Shares on issue and behind all other claims on Investore.
The below diagram summarises the ranking of the Notes and the Shares on a liquidation of Investore. In the event of a liquidation of
Investore, the actual priority amounts may differ.

1Amounts shown above are indicative. They are based on the financial position of Investore as at 31 March 2025 (being the date of Investore's
most recent published financial statements), adjusted to reflect the issue of the Notes, assuming the net proceeds are used to repay
bank borrowings.
2Liabilities that rank in priority to the Notes on liquidation include amounts owing to Inland Revenue. There are typically other preferred claims
which arise when a company is liquidated which are not possible to foresee and cannot therefore be quantified. All other liabilities of Investore will
rank ahead of the Notes (unless expressed to rank equal to, or below, the Notes) and the amount of these liabilities will vary, including as trade and
general creditor claims are incurred.
3Excludes certain accounting liabilities being, as at 31 March 2025, Lease liabilities ($13,157,000) Deferred tax ($2,537,000) and
Derivatives ($262,000).
4For the purposes of these calculations an issue size of $62.5 million of Notes has been assumed. If the issue size is less than $62.5 million, less
bank debt would be repaid from the issuance of the Notes. This would mean that the liabilities that rank in priority to the Notes would accordingly
be higher than what is shown above.
5The amount of equity stated in the diagram includes an amount in relation to Investore’s existing quoted financial products (i.e. Investore’s ordinary
shares which are quoted on the NZX Main Board).

5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES (CONTINUED)
Further Borrowing and security
After the issue of the Notes, the Investore Group may (without the consent of Noteholders) borrow money or otherwise incur
liabilities from time to time that:
•rank equally with the Notes on a liquidation of Investore. This may include, for example, further subordinated notes issued by
Investore; or
•rank in priority to the Notes on a liquidation of Investore. This may include, for example, unsecured and unsubordinated
liabilities of the Investore Group (such as trade creditors), bank borrowing, secured bonds and other secured liabilities, and
liabilities preferred by law.
Restrictions on Borrowing
The terms of the Notes do not limit the ability of the Investore Group to borrow further money.
However, certain terms contained in the Investore Group’s other funding documents do limit its ability to borrow (although you do
not have the benefit of these, and they may be amended or waived by the relevant creditors):
•Investore’s Bank Facility Agreement contains:
–An “interest coverage” ratio. Under each of these provisions (as relevant), Investore agrees to ensure that at the end of each
financial year and half year the ratio of EBIT to interest and financing costs of the Investore Group for the 12 months then
ending shall not be less than 1.75 times. The relevant lenders under the Bank Facility Agreement have agreed that interest
on the Notes is not treated as interest for the purposes of the interest coverage ratio.
–A “loan to value” ratio. Under this provision, Investore agrees to ensure that the ratio of the total principal amount of all
outstanding borrowed money secured by certain mortgages and other securities in favour of the Security Trustee to the total
value of the properties subject to those mortgages is not more than an agreed percentage. As unsecured obligations, the
Notes do not affect (and are not included in) this loan to value ratio.
•The Bank Facility Agreement has been amended to, among other matters, provide for additional facilities, exclude interest on
the Notes for the purposes of the calculation of the interest coverage ratio as described above and to increase the loan to
value ratio limit from 55% to 60%.
•The Secured Bonds also include a “loan to value” ratio limit of 65% (calculated in a similar way under the Bank Facility
Agreement). As unsecured obligations, the Notes do not affect (and are not included in) this loan to value ratio.
In addition, the Bank Facility Agreement and the Secured Bonds are all secured via the Security Trust Deed.
5.3 CONDITION TO PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES
Payments of interest on the Notes, and Investore’s ability to make a Cash Election on Conversion, are subject to the Payment
Condition, as described further below.
In respect of any payment, Investore will meet the Payment Condition if:
•Investore is not, and would not be immediately after such payment, insolvent; and
•no event of default (howsoever described) is continuing, or will occur as a result of such payment, in respect of any borrowed
money of Investore.
For this purpose, Investore is “insolvent” if it does not satisfy the solvency test in section 4 of the Companies Act 1993. This
solvency test requires that:
•Investore is able to pay its debts as they become due in the normal course of business; and
•the value of Investore’s assets is greater than the value of its liabilities, including contingent liabilities.
The Payment Condition does not restrict Investore from issuing Shares on Conversion of the Notes.

5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES (CONTINUED)
5.4 CONVERSION
Conversion into Shares
On the Conversion Date, subject to a Cash Election, Investore will Convert the Notes into ordinary shares of Investore. Shares
issued on Conversion will rank equally with, and be of the same class as, the existing Shares, which are quoted on the NZX Main
Board (NZX: IPL).
The number of Shares to be issued on Conversion of the Notes will be determined by the following formula:
Number of Shares =
Principal Amount of the Notes + accrued and Unpaid Interest
Conversion Price
The Conversion Price is the lesser of:
1.the Conversion Price Cap ($1.56); and
2.a 2% discount to the Market Price (calculated as per the statement below)
The Market Price is based on the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Shares traded through the NZX
Main Board on each Business Day during the period of 20 Business Days prior to (but not including) the Conversion Announcement
Date. Further details on the calculation of Market Price on any Business Day are set out in the Trust Documents.
If the total number of Shares to be issued to you includes a fraction of a Share, that fraction will be rounded down to the nearest
whole number.
This means the Conversion Price will be a 2% discount to the Market Price, unless the Market Price is at least approximately
$1.592, in which case the Conversion Price will be $1.56. At Conversion, Noteholders will receive a minimum value of
approximately $1.02, for every $1.00 invested (as determined under the terms of the Notes and subject to rounding and variance
between the Market Price and the Share price on the Conversion Date).
Noteholders will also benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592
(being the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount). The Market Price is based on the arithmetic
average of the volume weighted average price calculated over a 20 Business Day period so may not be the same as the price of the
Shares on the Conversion Date. Investore will announce the final Conversion Price via NZX on the Conversion Announcement Date.
Investore may issue further Shares from time to time before each Conversion Date, which may negatively affect the Share price.
This may reduce the value Noteholders receive on Conversion (but subject to the minimum provided by the discounted approach).
As described below, the Conversion Price Cap can be adjusted from time to time.
The following table illustrates the number of Shares to be issued on Conversion and the value provided at a range of possible Share
prices. The examples are for illustrative purposes only. The figures in the examples are not forward looking statements and do not
indicate, guarantee or forecast future Share prices.

1The actual Market Price on the Conversion Announcement Date could be above or below the illustrative range provided.
2The Conversion Price will be the lower of $1.56 and a 2% discount to the Market Price as described above. These examples assume that there
has been no adjustment to the Conversion Price Cap.
3These examples assume that there is no accrued or Unpaid Interest.
4Fractions of Shares arising on the Conversion of the Notes are disregarded.
5The value of Shares received assumes no change between the Market Price used in the calculation of the Conversion Price and the Share price
following Conversion, and ignores transaction costs and any impact on the Share price caused by the potential dilution that may occur given the
additional Shares created by Conversion.
6The cash amount is calculated by multiplying the Market Price by the Conversion Number (as described below).
Product Disclosure Statement - Investore Property Limited16
5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES (CONTINUED)
Adjustments to Conversion Price Cap
The Conversion Price Cap will be adjusted if, prior to the Conversion Date:
•Bonus issues: Investore issues any Shares or other instruments to its Shareholders as a class by way of bonus issue
capitalisation of profits, reserves or otherwise; or
•Rights issues: Investore issues or grants any rights to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Shares or other instruments
to its Shareholders as a class on a pro rata basis (excluding any Shareholders if they have an address outside New Zealand); or
•Placements or share purchase plans: Investore issues or grants any rights to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire
Shares (including under any share purchase plan), other than pursuant to the first two bullet points above, at less than 98% of
the Market Price; or
•Divisions etc: there is a division, consolidation or reclassification of Shares.
Further details of the process for adjustments are set out in the Series Supplement.
However, no adjustments will be made in respect of any actions pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan, any further issuances of
convertible notes, or any other transactions which may affect the price of the Shares (including, for example, any return of capital,
buy back or cash dividend paid by Investore).
Cash Election
Rather than Converting Notes, Investore may elect to instead pay a cash amount in respect of all or some of the Notes determined
by the following formula for each Noteholder:
Cash amount = Conversion Number x Market Price
where the Conversion Number is the number of Shares that would be (in the absence of a Cash Election) issued following
Conversion of that Noteholder’s holding of Notes (or if Investore makes a Cash Election in respect of less than all the Notes, the
percentage of Notes that the Cash Election is made in respect of, rounded down to the nearest Note).
In effect, Noteholders would receive an equivalent value to those Shares (as determined under the terms of the Notes) and as
such would similarly benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592
(being the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
Investore is only permitted to make a Cash Election for the Notes if it meets the Payment Condition as described above.
Investore will inform Noteholders by announcement to NZX on or before the Conversion Announcement Date:
•whether it intends to make a Cash Election for the Notes (subject to meeting the Payment Condition on the Conversion
Date); and
•the percentage of Notes (if any) that it makes a Cash Election in respect of. The Conversion Number for each Noteholder used
to calculate the cash amount payable will be the percentage of Notes that the Cash Election is made in respect of rounded
down to the nearest Note.
If Investore makes a Cash Election for less than 100% of the Notes:
•any Notes in respect of which a Cash Election is not made will Convert into Shares on the Conversion Date; and
•Investore may make adjustments to take account of the effect on marketable parcels and other logistical considerations.
If Investore announces an intention to make a Cash Election but does not, on the Conversion Date, meet the Payment Condition
then Investore will Convert the Notes as set out above.

5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES (CONTINUED)
Conversion Price for early Conversion
If the Notes become Convertible prior to the Conversion Date due to an Event of Default, a Compulsory Acquisition Event or a
Tax Event (as described below), then Conversion will occur in substantially the same manner as described above in respect of
Conversion on the Conversion Date. However, in accordance with the Series Supplement:
•in the case of an Event of Default or Tax Event, the Market Price shall instead be calculated over the period of 20 Business
Days ending (but not including) 5 Business Days prior to the date of such early Conversion; and
•in the case of a Compulsory Acquisition Event, the Market Price shall be deemed to be the price offered for each Share in the
relevant Compulsory Acquisition Event.
The Cash Election does not apply to any Conversion of Notes before the Conversion Date.
Shares may be issued to a nominee instead of you
If any of your Notes are Converted, the relevant Shares may be issued to a nominee instead of you if:
•you are not, or Investore believes you may not be, a New Zealand resident at the time of Conversion and Investore determines
in its absolute discretion, that the laws of your country of residence are unduly onerous to permit the issue of Shares to you
on Conversion (or you otherwise request Investore to do so, by notice in writing at least 5 Business Days before the date of
Conversion, or you do not provide such information as may be required to issue the Shares to you); or
•Investore believes that, upon Conversion, you may cause Investore to become an overseas person (as defined in the Overseas
Investment Act 2005) or may cause Investore to become liable to lose its status as a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) under the
Income Tax Act 2007.
If any of the above occur, the nominee will sell those Shares and pay you the proceeds less the sale charges.
5.5 SUSPENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENTS
Payments of interest on the Notes will be suspended if Investore does not satisfy the Payment Condition on the relevant Interest
Payment Date.
Any such Unpaid Interest will remain outstanding and will accumulate. Interest will accrue on Unpaid Interest at the Interest Rate
(compounding on each Interest Payment Date) until paid.
No dividend or other return will be made to Shareholders while any interest on the Notes is due but unpaid.
Unpaid Interest (and any interest thereon) is required to be paid no later than 5 Business Days after Investore satisfies the Payment
Condition (which does not need to be an Interest Payment Date). No Event of Default arises if Investore fails to pay Unpaid Interest
before such date.
If there is any Unpaid Interest at the time of Conversion of a Note, that Unpaid Interest (and any interest thereon) will be taken into
account when determining the number of Shares to be issued. See further under the heading “Conversion” above.
5.6 EVENTS OF DEFAULT
The Events of Default are contained in the Trust Documents. They include:
•a failure by Investore to make a payment due in respect of the Notes;
•a material breach by Investore of an obligation under the Series Supplement;
•Investore ceases or threatens to cease to carry on its business; or
•insolvency events that affect Investore.
This summary does not cover all of the Events of Default. For full details of the Events of Default see clause 8 of the
Series Supplement.
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Supervisor may in its discretion, and must upon being directed to do so by a
Special Resolution of Noteholders, declare the Notes to be immediately Convertible.

5. KEY FEATURES OF THE NOTES (CONTINUED)
5.7 COMPULSORY ACQUISITION EVENT
Noteholders may choose to Convert their Notes before the Conversion Date if any person (or persons acting jointly or in concert)
becomes bound, or becomes entitled and elect, to compulsorily acquire Shares held by minority Shareholders, whether following a
takeover offer, a scheme of arrangement or otherwise (a Compulsory Acquisition Event).
If a Compulsory Acquisition Event occurs, Investore will announce this via NZX (an Early Conversion Notice) and each Noteholder
may elect to Convert all (but not some only) of its Notes by notice to Investore or the Registrar on its behalf.
In the Early Conversion Notice, Investore will set:
•the last date on which Noteholders may make an election to Convert their Notes, which must be at least 14 days after the date
of the Early Conversion Notice; and
•the date of Conversion of such Notes, which must be no more than 21 days after the date of the Early Conversion Notice.
5.8 TAX EVENT
Investore may choose to Convert all (but not some only) of the Notes before the Conversion Date if a Tax Event has occurred and is
continuing. Broadly, a Tax Event will occur if there has been, or there will be, a change in New Zealand law applying after the Issue
Date, as a result of which:
•any interest payable on the Notes is not, or will not be, allowed as a deduction for the purposes of New Zealand income tax; or
•Investore would be, or is likely to be, exposed to any other adverse tax consequence in relation to any Notes,
provided such event is not minor and Investore did not expect such event on the Issue Date.
If Investore chooses to Convert the Notes in these circumstances, it will announce this via NZX together with the date set for
Conversion (which must be at least 30 days and not more than 60 days after such announcement).
If the Notes Convert into Shares prior to the Conversion Date, interest will be calculated to the date of Conversion based on the
number of days since the last Interest Payment Date and a 365-day year.
5.9 OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRUST DOCUMENTS
The Trust Documents also contain a number of standard terms, including relating to:
•The role of the Supervisor, and the powers and duties of the Supervisor. The Supervisor will not be responsible for monitoring
the application by Investore of the money paid by the subscribers of the Notes.
•The process for replacement of the Supervisor.
•The right of the Supervisor to be indemnified.
•The payment of fees, expenses and other amounts owing to the Supervisor (including that amounts owing to the Supervisor
are, on a default, paid from the proceeds of enforcement before payments to Noteholders).
•Holding meetings of Noteholders.
•The process for Noteholders to sell or transfer their Notes (including that such sales and transfers are subject to the terms of
the Trust Documents and applicable laws, in particular that transfers that would result in the transferee holding Notes that is
not a multiple of $1,000, will not be allowed).
•The process for amending the Trust Documents. To summarise, the Trust Documents can be amended:
–with the consent of the Supervisor; or
–by the Financial Markets Authority under section 109 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013; or
–under section 22(7) or 37(6) of the Financial Markets Supervisors Act 2011 or any other enactment.
The Supervisor must only consent to an amendment if:
•the amendment is approved by a Special Resolution of the Noteholders (or each class of Noteholders that is or may be
adversely affected by the amendment); or
•the Supervisor is satisfied that the amendment does not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders.

6. RISKS OF INVESTING
6.1 INTRODUCTION
This section describes the following potential key risk factors:
•general risks associated with an investment in the Notes and the Shares; and
•specific risks relating to Investore’s creditworthiness.
The selection of risks has been based on an assessment of a combination of the probability of a risk occurring and the impact of the
risk if it did occur. This assessment is based on the knowledge of the Directors and the Manager as at the date of this PDS. There is
no guarantee or assurance that the importance of different risks will not change or that no other risks may emerge over time.
Where practicable, Investore and the Manager will seek to implement risk mitigation strategies to minimise the exposure to some of
the risks outlined in the following table, although there can be no assurance that such arrangements will fully protect Investore from
such risks.
You should carefully consider these risks (together with the other information in this PDS and available on the Offer Register) before
deciding to invest in the Notes. This summary does not cover all of the risks of investing in the Notes.
The statement of risks in this section does not take account of the personal circumstances, financial position or investment
requirements of any particular person. It is important, therefore, that before making any investment decision, you give consideration
to the suitability of an investment in the Notes in light of your individual risk profile for investments, investment objectives and
personal circumstances (including financial and taxation issues).
6.2 RISKS
GENERAL RISKS: an investment in the Notes is subject to the following general risks
Credit Risk
on Investore
This is the risk that Investore becomes insolvent and is unable to meet its obligations under the
Notes. Noteholders may not be able to recover their full principal investment if Investore encounters
severe financial difficulty or becomes insolvent. In that case Investore may be unable to meet its
obligations under the Notes or satisfy the Payment Condition. If Investore suspends interest payments in
accordance with the terms of the Notes you will not be able to take any action against Investore, unless
an Event of Default subsequently occurs. See section 5 of this PDS (Key features of the Notes).
Secondary Market Risk
Investore intends to quote the Notes on the NZX Debt Market, which means Noteholders may be able
to sell them on the NZX Debt Market before the Conversion Date. However there may be no active
trading market and an investment in Notes may not be very liquid. You may be unable to find a buyer,
or the price at which you are able to sell the Notes may be less than the amount you paid for them.
The price (if any) at which you may be able to sell Notes may also be affected by factors related to the
creditworthiness of Investore, movements in the market price of the Shares, and market-related factors
such as movements in market interest rates. For example, if market interest rates go up, the market
value of the Notes would typically be expected to go down and vice versa. The subordination of the
Notes, Conversion and possibility of interest payment suspension may also increase the volatility of the
market price of the Notes, and they may be more sensitive generally to adverse changes in Investore’s
financial condition than other debt securities.
Risk relating to
Conversion of Notes
The risks in respect of your investment will change significantly on any Conversion of the Notes into
Shares. For instance:
•as a Shareholder, you may receive a return only if dividends are paid on the Shares, or if the
Shares increase in value and you are able to sell them at a higher price than you paid for
your Notes. Dividends on Shares are payable at the absolute discretion of Investore and the
amount of each dividend is discretionary. Investore’s current dividend policy is available at https://
investoreproperty.co.nz/investor-centre/#dividend;
•the price of the Shares may go up or down at any time, and may be more volatile than the market
price of the Notes or other debt securities. There is no certainty as to the future value of the Shares;
•you may lose some or all of your investment in the Shares. For example, this could occur if one or
more of the specific risks relating to Investore’s creditworthiness occur; and
•in a winding up of Investore, claims of Shareholders rank behind claims of holders of all other
securities (including any preference shares) and debts of Investore. You will only be paid after all
creditors and, if applicable, holders of preference shares have been paid.

6. RISKS OF INVESTING (CONTINUED)
Unless and until Noteholders receive Shares upon Conversion of the Notes, they will have no rights with
respect to the Shares, including any voting rights or rights to receive any regular dividends or other
distributions with respect to the Shares. Upon Conversion, Noteholders will be entitled to exercise the
rights of Shareholders only as to actions for which the applicable record date occurs after the date
of Conversion.
SPECIFIC RISKS RELATING TO INVESTORE’S CREDITWORTHINESS: Investore considers that the main circumstances which
significantly increase, either individually or in combination, the risk that Investore may default on its payment obligations under the
Notes are as follows.
Exposure to
significant tenants
General Distributors Limited (GDL), an ultimate subsidiary of Woolworths Group Limited, which
operates Woolworths-branded supermarkets in New Zealand, is Investore’s largest tenant constituting
approximately 59% of Investore's Contract Rental as at the date of this PDS
1
. The second largest tenant
is Bunnings Limited, constituting approximately 21% of Investore’s Contract Rental as at the date of
this PDS.
If the performance of either materially decreases, or if either fails to meet its lease obligations, it could
have a significant adverse effect on Investore’s operations and financial performance, including the
ability for Investore to make payments on the Notes or comply with the financial covenants under its
Secured Bonds and Bank Facility Agreement applicable from time to time.
Investore seeks to manage this exposure to significant tenants by managing lease expiries, maintaining
strong relationships with GDL, Bunnings and other tenants and considering opportunities to add
new tenants when available. Investore monitors performance of lease obligations and views GDL and
Bunnings as responsible tenants, including in relation to its rent payment obligations to Investore. Over
time Investore has reduced its exposure to GDL, reducing from 84% of Contract Rental at the time of
Investore’s NZX listing in 2016. Conversely, the exposure to Bunnings has grown from nil at the time
of listing.
Single class of
property exposes
Investore to downturn
in large format
retail and
convenience-based
retail property sector
Investore has been established to invest solely in large format retail property in New Zealand. Although
Investore is proposing to amend its Management Agreement to include convenience-based retail
within its investment policy, Investore’s portfolio will remain, intentionally, undiversified. Investore's
financial performance is therefore directly linked to the demand for, and supply of, large format
retail (and convenience-based retail if the amendment to the Management Agreement is approved
by Investore’s shareholders).
A drop in demand or increase in supply, competition from other property owners, and changes in
overall economic or property market conditions (and most particularly in the large format retail and
convenience-based retail sectors) could have an adverse effect on rental returns and/or the values of
Investore’s properties. In the event of adverse market conditions, Investore may not be able to sell its
properties on commercially acceptable terms. In the event of reduced rental returns, Investore’s ability
to make payments on the Notes or comply with financial covenants under the Secured Bonds and Bank
Facility Agreement from time to time could be adversely affected.
Investore’s exposure to a single class of property is a concentration risk arising from its large format
retail and convenience-based retail strategy.
As the market for large format retail and convenience-based retail properties in New Zealand is outside
of Investore’s control, it is difficult to predict the likelihood of a downturn in that market. Investore seeks
to manage this risk by attracting and retaining stable, nationally recognised, long-term anchor tenants
who cater to everyday needs. In addition, any localised changes in demand can be mitigated through the
geographic diversification of Investore’s portfolio.
2
If the acquisition of Silverdale Centre is approved by Shareholders, and Investore increases its exposure
to convenience-based retail properties over time, its overall exposure to the retail property market
and consumer discretionary spending would increase. Macroeconomic headwinds or trends such as
consumers' preference to purchase online may lead to a reduction in foot traffic in retail centres and may
reduce consumer consumption and discretionary spending. This would put pressure on the total retail
store occupancy costs that retailers are willing to bear, which could result in potential vacancies and
lower overall rental receipts for Investore.
1
If the acquisition of the Silverdale Centre is approved by Shareholders at the Special Meeting, the tenancy concentration of GDL would reduce
from 59% to 54% and 32 new tenants would be introduced into Investore's portfolio, including nationally recognised retailers such as Chemist
Warehouse, The Warehouse, Noel Leeming and ASB.
2If the acquisition of the Silverdale Centre is approved by Shareholders at the Special Meeting, the acquisition would, however, increase the
portfolio's Auckland weighting from 42% to 48% by value.
Product Disclosure Statement - Investore Property Limited21
6. RISKS OF INVESTING (CONTINUED)
Investore's strategy for disciplined growth includes targeted acquisitions (such as the proposed
acquisition of the Silverdale Centre). Growth activities involve elements of risk, including the risk that
Investore may not be able to identify opportunities at prices that Investore is willing to pay. The
risk is exacerbated due to Investore's exposure to a single class of property, which limits supply of
new opportunities.
Reliance on
external financing
Investore relies on external funding sources to support its business. Investore's financial performance
may be negatively impacted as a result of increased interest rates or if it were unable to continue to
access external funding on commercially acceptable terms.
Its loan to value ratio of approximately 39.4%
1
is higher than some other listed property companies,
meaning it has a greater proportion of debt to property compared to those other companies. This makes
Investore more exposed to risks affecting its external funding.
Any default or breach of the financial covenants included in such funding including due to adverse
changes in economic conditions or the property market, may have a significant adverse impact on
Investore’s financial condition, including its ability to obtain new funding and refinance existing funding.
If such breaches were not remedied, the lender may enforce its security and Investore may be forced to
sell some or all of its properties on commercially unattractive terms to reduce debt.
Investore’s loan to value ratio of 39.4%
1
is expected to reduce to approximately 33.4% immediately
after the issue of the Notes, increasing to 40.2% assuming the acquisition of the Silverdale
Centre completes.
Investore’s Secured Bonds are due for repayment in February 2027 ($125 million) and August 2027
($125 million). Its bank facilities in place on the date of this PDS are due for repayment in May 2029
($130 million), May 2030 ($95 million) and October 2030 ($100 million) but may be refinanced prior to
the respective repayment. Investore's ability to refinance or raise debt on commercially acceptable terms
is dependent on a number of factors, including the:
•general economic climate;
•state of debt markets; and
•performance and reputation of Investore.
Changes to any of these factors could lead to an increased cost of funding or limited access to
capital for Investore to refinance existing debt facilities. This could require Investore to sell assets on
commercially unattractive terms and could have a significant adverse effect on Investore’s financial
performance. Investore’s debt makes it exposed to uncertainty in the debt markets and changes in
financing costs.
Investore seeks to manage this risk by diversifying its sources of funding (including through the Offer)
and putting in place available bank facilities well ahead of Secured Bond maturity dates. However,
diversification and obtaining early funding commitments cannot completely eliminate this risk.
Valuations
The valuations ascribed to each property will be influenced on an ongoing basis by a number of factors
as assessed by independent registered valuers.
If any of these factors change, property values may fall. This could have a significant negative impact on
Investore's financing arrangements (including compliance with its loan to value ratio), Investore's rental
income, the price at which Investore would be able to sell the properties in the market and its ability to
execute its targeted growth strategy.
131 March 2025 loan to value ratio, pro forma for the acquisition of Bunnings New Lynn and the disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay.

6. RISKS OF INVESTING (CONTINUED)
Natural disasters
and regulation
Changes in regulation, as well as earthquakes and other natural disasters in the areas in which Investore
operates, may also decrease demand for properties that Investore owns or increase costs to maintain,
repair and upgrade them.
The New Zealand Government has announced an extensive review of the management of seismic risk in
existing buildings, with the purpose being to ensure seismic risk in existing buildings is being managed
effectively. The outcomes from this review are not yet known but may impact the value of Investore’s
portfolio or costs associated with it. Even without a change in regulation, the process undertaken and
standards which are applied in seismic assessments evolve over time as the engineering profession's
understanding of seismic events develops. This means that the outcome of seismic assessments may be
subject to change over time. Changes to seismic requirements (or the interpretation and application of
existing seismic standards) could result in buildings no longer meeting the minimum seismic standards
mandated by existing and/or prospective tenants, which could impact demand from tenants and
decrease revenue, or require Investore to invest further to seismically strengthen properties.
Investore's portfolio is geographically diversified across New Zealand, with the majority of the portfolio
located in highly populated urban areas. 85% of the Investore portfolio by Contract Rental is located in
the North Island and 15% is located in the South Island. A natural disaster affecting an urban area may
affect a material part of Investore’s portfolio.
In the context of a natural disaster, Investore maintains insurance cover for material damage to its
properties and for business interruption to levels determined by Investore. This may mitigate some of the
impact of any such event. However, insurance coverage does not provide complete protection against
all potential events and resulting losses. Further, insurance may become more difficult or expensive to
obtain, which may limit Investore’s ability to adequately manage such risks. The time it takes to assess
damage to properties after a natural disaster, and process insurance claims, can also lead to periods of
significant uncertainty for Investore and its tenants.
Investore is also exposed to other regulatory risks that may affect it or its tenants. This includes potential
reform in the grocery sector following the appointment of the Grocery Commissioner in 2023 and
continued focus on supermarkets by the Commerce Commission.
Performance of
external manager
Investore is reliant on the management of SIML and the expertise and experience of SIML's senior
management team. If SIML does not perform under the terms of the Management Agreement, this could
have a negative impact on the financial performance of Investore.
Investore’s ability to meet its banking covenants and deliver distributions are driven by its financial
performance. In order to maintain or maximise net rental income Investore relies on the performance of
SIML as its manager to:
•ensure maximum possible occupancy of Investore's properties, including through negotiating
leases and renewals of leases and maintaining good relationships with tenants;
•maximise rental income through negotiating appropriate leases and managing rent reviews to
maximise rental income; and
•ensure properties are maintained so as to remain safe and attractive to tenants.
If SIML does not perform any of the above functions appropriately, this could have a direct negative
impact on Investore's net rental income, impacting Investore's financial performance.
SIML manages Investore's capital sources in accordance with the direction of the Board and policies
set by the Board, to ensure Investore has appropriate funding to continue its activities. If SIML does
not perform these obligations appropriately this could prejudice Investore's ability to maintain funding at
appropriate levels or at commercial rates.
Investore relies on SIML to ensure compliance with all law. If SIML does not perform, Investore may incur
penalties as a result of breaching laws.

7. TAX
Taxes may affect your returns. The information set out below does not constitute taxation advice to any Noteholder, is general in
nature and limited to consideration of New Zealand taxation impacts only. Noteholders should obtain independent tax advice in
respect of their individual circumstances.
Resident Withholding Tax
If you are tax resident in New Zealand or otherwise receive payments of interest on the Notes that are subject to the resident
withholding tax (RWT) rules, RWT at the relevant rate will be deducted from interest paid or credited to you, unless you notify the
Registrar that you have RWT-exempt status (as that term is defined in the Income Tax Act 2007) and the status remains valid on the
record date for the relevant payment date.
Approved Issuer Levy
If you receive payments of interest on the Notes subject to the non-resident withholding tax rules (NRWT), an amount equal to any
approved issuer levy payable (
AIL) will be deducted from payments of interest to you in lieu of deducting NRWT (except where you
elect otherwise and Investore agrees, or AIL is not applicable under any law, in which case NRWT will be deducted at the applicable
NRWT rate).
If the AIL regime applies, Investore will apply the zero rate of AIL, if possible, and otherwise pay AIL at the applicable rate. If the AIL
regime changes, Investore reserves the right not to pay AIL. See the Trust Documents for further details.
Indemnity
If, in respect of any of your Notes, Investore becomes liable to make any payment of, or on account of, tax payable by you, then you
will be required to indemnify Investore in respect of such liability. Any amounts paid by Investore in relation to any such liability may
be recovered from you by withholding the amount from further payments to you in respect of Notes. See the Trust Documents for
further details.
General
The tax treatment applying to Notes is dependent on the particular terms of the Notes and the tax profile of the Noteholder.
Typically, Noteholders will be taxed on the interest received on the Notes, and any “gain” arising on Conversion in relation to the
increase in the value of Shares may be treated as equity. The amount attributed to equity may be a capital gain depending on each
Noteholders’ individual circumstances. However, due to the particular terms of the Notes, there is a technical risk that any gain that
might arise on Conversion (or Cash Election) relates to the debt component (and not the equity component) of the Notes, meaning it
may be required to be included as taxable income in the base price adjustment under New Zealand's "financial arrangements" rules.
Investore intends to engage with Inland Revenue officials to seek legislative change such that any gain arising on Conversion of the
Notes is attributable to the equity component of the Notes and not the debt component.
There may also be other tax consequences from acquiring or disposing of the Notes (or any Shares issued on Conversion),
and otherwise from the Conversion or cash settlement of the Notes, including under New Zealand’s “financial arrangements”
rules. If you have any queries relating to the tax consequences of the investment, you should obtain professional advice on
those consequences.
The preceding information does not constitute taxation advice to any Noteholder, is general in nature and limited to consideration of
New Zealand taxation impacts as at the date of this PDS.

Large Format Retail
Investore defines large format retail as being:
•properties that have a single tenant or limited number of tenants and generally no more than 15
specialty tenants. The Anchor Tenant or tenants will occupy more than 50% of the net lettable
area of the property and provide more than 50% of the rental income, which ensures the majority
of income is contracted with nationally recognised retail companies;
•building improvements are typically large, free-standing, rectangular, generally single-floor
structures built on a concrete slab. Building improvements are straight-forward with limited
indoor common areas and public amenities thus minimising maintenance and capital
expenditure requirements;
•the properties are well serviced by car parking facilities, with most customers expected to
access the property by car;
•Anchor Tenants’ net lettable area is typically in excess of 2,000 sqm. Specialty tenants are
typically in excess of 150 sqm, although in some limited cases may be 60 sqm or less;
•uses include, but are not limited to, grocery, bulky goods retailing, factory outlets, retail and trade

$1.00 per Note, being the Principal Amount of each Note.
Term
4 years with a Conversion Date of 26 September 2029.
Indicative Terms Sheet - Investore Property Limited1
INDICATIVE TERMS SHEET (CONTINUED)
Conversion Date
26 September 2029
The Notes may Convert before the Conversion Date in some circumstances. See the
“Early Conversion” section below for further information.
Conversion
On the Conversion Date, all outstanding Notes will be Converted into Shares, subject to
the Cash Election.
The number of Shares to be issued following Conversion of each holding of Notes will
be determined by dividing their Principal Amount ($1.00 per Note) (together with any
accrued and Unpaid Interest (and any interest thereon) and less any taxes, withholdings
or deductions) by the Conversion Price, which is the lesser of:
1.the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56; and
2.a 2% discount to the Market Price (calculated as per the statement below).
The Market Price is determined based on the arithmetic average of the daily volume
weighted average price of Investore Shares traded through the NZX Main Board in the
20 Business Days prior to (but not including) the Conversion Announcement Date.
Please refer to the PDS for example scenarios of Conversion at different Market Prices.
Conversion Price Cap Adjustments
The Conversion Price Cap will be adjusted for bonus issues, rights issues, placements
or share purchase plans and divisions, consolidations or reclassifications as described
further in the PDS.
However, no adjustments will be made in respect of any actions pursuant to a dividend
reinvestment plan, any further issuances of convertible notes, or any other transactions
which may affect the price of the Shares (including, for example, any return of capital,
buy back or cash dividend paid by Investore).
Cash Election
Rather than Converting Notes, Investore may elect instead to pay a cash amount
to Noteholders at the end of the term. In this case, Noteholders would be paid an
amount equal to the Market Price multiplied by the number of Shares that would have
otherwise been issued to them on Conversion of their Notes. This means Noteholders
would receive an equivalent value to those Shares (as determined under the terms of
the Notes) and would similarly benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the
extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592 (being the Conversion Price
Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
If Investore elects to pay a cash amount in part, the partial Cash Election will be done
on a proportionate basis and may include adjustments to take account of the effect on
marketable parcels and other logistical considerations.
Investore may only elect to pay the cash amount if it is not insolvent and no event of
default in respect of borrowed money is continuing (and Investore would not become
insolvent, and no such event of default would occur, as a result of making such
payment) (the Payment Condition).
Investore will announce whether it intends to make a Cash Election for any Notes
via NZX on or before the Conversion Announcement Date, being the date that is 5
Business Days before the Conversion Date.
Indicative Terms Sheet - Investore Property Limited
2
INDICATIVE TERMS SHEET (CONTINUED)
Early Conversion
The Notes may be Converted before the Conversion Date:
•after an Event of Default;
•at the Noteholders’ option after a Compulsory Acquisition Event; or
•at Investore’s option after a Tax Event,
as described further in the PDS.
A Compulsory Acquisition Event will occur if any person (or persons acting jointly
or in concert) become bound, or become entitled and elect, to compulsorily acquire
Shares held by minority Shareholders, whether following a takeover offer, a scheme of
arrangement or otherwise.
Broadly, a Tax Event will occur if there has been, or there will be, a change in New
Zealand law applying after the Issue Date, as a result of which:
•any interest payable on the Notes is not, or will not be, allowed as a deduction for
the purposes of New Zealand income tax; or
•Investore would be, or is likely to be, exposed to any other adverse tax
consequence in relation to any Notes,
provided such event is not minor and Investore did not expect such event on the
Issue Date.
The Cash Election does not apply to any Conversion before the Conversion Date.
Interest Rate
The sum of the Swap Rate plus the Issue Margin (which may be above or below the
Indicative Issue Margin), subject to a minimum Interest Rate.
The Interest Rate will be announced by Investore via NZX on or about the Rate
Set Date.
Indicative Issue Margin
The Indicative Issue Margin range (and minimum Interest Rate) will be announced by
Investore via NZX on the Opening Date.
Swap Rate
The 4 year swap rate determined on the Rate Set Date by Investore in consultation with
the Joint Lead Managers, according to market convention, and expressed on a quarterly
basis (rounded to 2 decimal places, if necessary, with 0.005 being rounded up).
Interest Payment Dates
Quarterly in arrear in equal amounts on 26 March, 26 June, 26 September and 26
December each year (or if that day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day)
until and including the Conversion Date. The first Interest Payment Date will be 26
December 2025 but as that date is not a Business Day, the actual payment will be
made on 29 December 2025 (being the next Business Day).
Interest payments may be suspended in certain circumstances as described below.
Interest Suspension
Payments of interest on the Notes will be suspended if Investore does not meet the
Payment Condition (as described above) in respect of such interest.
Any suspended interest payment (Unpaid Interest) will accumulate and interest will
accrue on it at the Interest Rate (compounding on each Interest Payment Date)
until paid.
Unpaid Interest is required to be paid within 5 Business Days after Investore meets the
Payment Condition. Any Unpaid Interest (including any interest thereon) will be added
to the Principal Amount on Conversion.
Indicative Terms Sheet - Investore Property Limited3
INDICATIVE TERMS SHEET (CONTINUED)
Distribution Stopper
No dividend or other return will be made to Shareholders while any interest on the
Notes is suspended.
Record Date
The record date for interest payments is 5.00pm (New Zealand time) on the date that is
10 days before the relevant Interest Payment Date or, if that is not a Business Day, the
immediately preceding Business Day.
Business Day
Days on which the NZX Debt Market is open for trading.
If a payment date is not a Business Day, Investore will make payment on the next
Business Day, but no adjustment will be made to the amount of interest payable.

This presentation has been prepared by Investore Property Limited (IPL or Investore) in relation to the offer of subordinated, unsecured,
convertible notes (Notes). Alongside this presentation, Investore has lodged a Product Disclosure Statement dated 8 September 2025
(PDS) with the Registrar of Financial Service Providers in New Zealand (Registrar) and made available the information on the register of

The Offer Materials contain details of the Offer and other material information in relation to the Offer and should be read carefully and in
full before any investment decision is made. The Offer Materials and this presentation should be read in conjunction with Investore’s 2025

Information
The information in this presentation is provided for general information purposes only and does not purport to be complete or
comprehensive and does not constitute financial product, investment, tax or other advice, nor does it constitute a recommendation from
Investore, the Supervisor, the Arranger, the Joint Lead Managers or any of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees,
affiliates, agents or advisors to subscribe for or purchase the Notes, or vote at the Special Meeting. The information in this presentation is
summary in nature and is necessarily brief. No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made as to the accuracy, reliability,
completeness, correctness or currency of the information, statements, estimates, projections, targets, opinions or forecasts, or as to the
reasonableness of any assumptions, any of which may change without notice to you, contained in this presentation.
Investment risk
This presentation does not take into account your investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs and you should consult
with your financial and other advisors before any investment decision is made. An investment in the Notes or other securities in Investore
is subject to investment and other known and unknown risks, many of which are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of Investore.
Refer to section 6 of the PDS (Risks of investing) for a non-exhaustive summary of certain key risks associated with Investore and the
Notes. No guarantee is given regarding the performance of Investore or any return on the Notes or any other securities of Investore.
Forward-looking statements
This presentation may contain certain 'forward-looking statements' such as indications of, and guidance on, future earnings and financial
position and performance. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees or predictions of future performance and involve known
and unknown risks, significant uncertainties, assumptions, contingencies, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of
Investore and may involve significant elements of subjective judgement and assumptions as to future events which may or may not be
correct. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. Investore undertakes no obligation to update
these forward-looking statements for events or circumstances that occur subsequent to such dates or to update or keep current any of the
information contained in this presentation. Any estimates, projections or opinions as to events that may occur in the future (including
projections of revenue, expense, net income and performance) are based upon the best judgement of Investore from the information
available as of the date of this presentation. Actual results may vary from the projections and such variations may be material. You are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking figures in this presentation are unaudited and may include non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting practice) financial
measures and information. Not all of the financial information (including any non-GAAP information) will have been prepared in
accordance with, nor is it intended to comply with: (i) the financial or other reporting requirements of any regulatory body or any applicable
legislation; or (ii) the accounting principles generally accepted in New Zealand or any other jurisdiction or with International Financial
Reporting Standards. Some figures may be rounded and so actual calculation of the figures may differ from the figures in this
presentation. Non-GAAP financial information does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be
comparable to similar financial information presented by other entities. Non-GAAP financial information in this presentation is not audited
or reviewed.
Past performance
Past performance information provided in this presentation is given for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied on as (and is
not) a promise, representation, warranty or guarantee as to the past, present or future performance of Investore. No guarantee of future
returns is implied or given.

relied on in connection with any purchase of Investore's securities. It shall not form the basis of or be relied on by you to make an
investment decision, nor shall this presentation or any information communicated in it form the basis of any contract or commitment to
purchase or transfer any securities. The distribution of this presentation, and the offer or sale of Notes, may be restricted by law in certain
jurisdictions. Persons who receive this presentation outside New Zealand must inform themselves about and observe all such restrictions.
Nothing in this presentation is to be construed as authorising its distribution, or the offer or sale of Notes, in any jurisdiction other than

Financial impact
Financial impact of the Silverdale Centre acquisition
•The acquisition will enhance Investore’s rental income growth profile,
with 57% of Contract Rental at Silverdale Centre subject to
structured rent reviews, and a further 30% subject to market-based
rent reviews. This is expected to support Distributable Profit growth
over time
•The Silverdale Centre acquisition will be funded by bank debt, and,
together with the Notes issuance, the LVR increases marginally from
39.4% to 40.2% on a pro forma basis
1
•If the Management Agreement amendments are not approved at the
Special Meeting, the Silverdale Centre acquisition will not occur
unless the Silverdale Centre Letter is approved. In such case, SIML
will be paid the relevant additional fees in respect of managing the
Silverdale Centre under the Silverdale Centre Letter
2
•Any additional fees payable to SIML in respect of the Silverdale
Centre would be the same, whether payable under the amended
Management Agreement or the Silverdale Centre Letter. The current
annual cost to Investore of these additional fees (net of recoveries
from tenants) is estimated to be approximately $134k
2
•Overall, the Silverdale Centre acquisition is expected to increase
Investore’s Distributable Profit, with an accretion of approximately
3.0%

in the first year of ownership
1.31 March 2025 LVR, pro forma for the acquisition of Bunnings New Lynn and the disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay, the net proceeds

•The level of expiries is also low over the short to medium
term, with an average of 3.5% p.a. Contract Rental

Conclusion
24
•Falling interest rates are flowing through to lower savings rates on
deposits as well as lower borrowing costs, improving investor
depth and market liquidity for commercial property
•Strength and defensive nature of tenant covenant coupled with
larger underlying landholding enhances the appeal of
convenience-based and large format retail
•Successful execution on approximately $200m of transactions
over the past 12 months, with disposals at a combined premium to
book value
•The Board is of the view that the current point in the cycle is a
good time to acquire assets that exhibit strong growth
characteristics
•If approved, the Silverdale Centre acquisition delivers Investore
with further improved tenant diversification and earnings accretion
•Otherwise, the Notes would position the balance sheet to enable
Investore to pursue other strategic investment opportunities in the
near term
The issue of the Notes would provide Investore with additional balance sheet headroom to continue
execution of its strategy to acquire assets located in key metro locations that exhibit strong rental and
growth characteristics such as the Silverdale Centre

Example Market Price on Conversion
•On the Conversion Date, all outstanding Notes will be Converted into Shares, subject to a Cash Election by Investore
•The number of Shares to be issued following Conversion of each holding of Notes will be determined by dividing their Principal Amount
($1.00 per Note) (together with any accrued and Unpaid Interest (and any interest thereon) and less any taxes, withholdings or deductions) by
the Conversion Price, which is the lesser of:
•the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56; and
•a 2% discount to the Market Price
•The Market Price is determined based on the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Investore Shares traded
through the NZX Main Board in the 20 Business Days prior to (but not including) the Conversion Announcement Date
•Please refer to the PDS for example scenarios of Conversion at different Market Prices
•At Conversion, Noteholders will receive a minimum value of approximately $1.02 for every $1.00 invested

1.As determined under the terms of the Notes and subject to rounding and variance between the Market Price and the Share price on Conversion Date.
2.The Conversion Price will be a 2% discount to the Market Price, unless the Market Price is at least approximately $1.592 in which case the Conversion Price will be $1.56.
Investore Property Limited | Presentation relating to Subordinated Convertible Notes and Special Meeting of Shareholders
Cash Election
•Rather than Converting the Notes, Investore may elect instead to pay
a cash amount to Noteholders at the end of the term
•In this case, Noteholders would be paid an amount equal to the
Market Price (calculated as set out above) multiplied by the number of
Shares that would have otherwise been issued to them on Conversion
of their Notes. This means Noteholders would receive an equivalent
value to those Shares (as determined under the terms of the Notes)
and would similarly benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to
the extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592 (being the
Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2%
discount)
•If Investore elects to pay a cash amount in part, the partial Cash
Election will be done on a proportionate basis and may include
adjustments to take account of the effect of any marketable parcels
and other logistical considerations
•Investore will announce whether it intends to make a Cash Election for
any Notes via NZX on or before the Conversion Announcement Date,
being the date that is 5 Business Days before the Conversion Date
•See the PDS dated 8 Sep 25 for further detail on the Cash Election

Management Agreement
amendments
The Investore Board is proposing the following amendments
to the Management Agreement to ensure Investore is well-
positioned to pursue strategic, targeted growth opportunities.
These will be voted on the Special Shareholder Meeting to be
held on 20 Oct 25
1.Expand Investore’s investment mandate into convenience-based
retail (CBR) properties
2.Amend management fee provisions to align with the proposed
broadened mandate and market
3.Remove capital management provisions so that LVR and hedging
policies will be determined solely by the Board
4.Addition of standing Manager consent under the Investore constitution
for all transactions that are within investment mandate. Refer to
Notice of Special Meeting dated 8 Sep 25 for more information
Silverdale Centre
Investore Property Limited | Presentation relating to Subordinated Convertible Notes and Special Meeting of Shareholders
33
Expansion of mandate
The Investore Board is proposing to broaden Investore’s investment mandate to include CBR properties,
complementing the existing large format retail strategy
Expanded mandate
Invest in quality CBR properties which are typically
anchored by nationally recognised retailers. Uses
are primarily retail or associated everyday services
•Mandate will no longer require an anchor tenant
or tenants to occupy more than 50% of the net
lettable area of the property and provide more
than 50% of the rental income, which creates
more flexibility in the balance between anchors
and mini-majors
•Inclusion of assets with development potential,
including those in high-growth urban areas with
zoning that supports intensification, or able to
be converted into CBR such as through change
of use, leasing, development and
redevelopment initiatives
•Deliver a resilient and growing income stream,
enhancing returns for shareholders
Convenience-based retail property
•These properties are typically anchored by
nationally recognised retail tenants
•Uses are primarily retail or associated
everyday services, and can include, but are
not limited to, grocery, bulky goods retailing,
factory outlet, convenience retailing, trade-
based retail, general merchandise, health and
community services, and ancillary office
Investore Property Limited | Presentation relating to Subordinated Convertible Notes and Special Meeting of Shareholders
34
Expansion of mandate
Key benefits
✓Broadens Investore’s permitted investment scope to
CBR properties, complementing the existing strategy
✓Ability to pursue CBR assets with strong growth
characteristics or development potential, such as
those in urban growth corridors or key metro locations
and which are anchored by everyday needs tenants
✓CBR typically provides slightly higher yields, greater
tenant diversity and more frequent lease resets often
leading to higher annual rental growth, complementing
Investore’s LFR assets which typically deliver longer
leases, low management intensity and stable income
✓Will help to facilitate greater tenant and income
diversification over time
✓Greater alignment with strategic trends among peer
REITs in Australasia
Investore Property Limited | Presentation relating to Subordinated Convertible Notes and Special Meeting of Shareholders
35
Overview and rationale
Investore’s current building management fee arrangement of a
fixed $10,000 (plus GST) p.a. was a reflection of the nature of its
portfolio at IPO, being primarily single-tenanted, standalone LFR
properties. However, this structure does not reflect the cost of
managing more operationally intensive multi-tenanted properties
It is proposed that alongside the expansion of Investore’s
mandate to include CBR properties, the building management
fee is also aligned with market practice for externally managed
listed property vehicles
It is also proposed that an additional services fee is included in
the Management Agreement for intensive management resource
not contemplated under the Management Agreement where it is
requested by Investore and agreed between parties
Northington Partners have confirmed in its Independent Appraisal
Report that, in its opinion, the Management Agreement
amendments are fair to the Shareholders of Investore (other than
those Shareholders associated with SIML)
The expansion of mandate and Management Fee amendments
will be considered by Shareholders at the Special Shareholder
Meeting on 20 Oct 25
Management Fee amendments
Key benefits of new structure
✓More dynamic and equitable, ensuring fees are
proportionate to each property’s scale, complexity
and tenant mix
✓Aligns with industry practice and improves
transparency
✓Supports strategic growth in Investore’s portfolio
which has evolved from single-tenanted assets to
more management intensive assets (amplified by
investment mandate expansion)
✓Ensures maintenance of high standards of
operational performance across more
operationally intensive properties, ensuring
properties like the Silverdale Centre can remain
appropriately resourced
✓An immaterial financial impact, being a modest
reduction in Distributable Profit estimated at $64k
per annum after tax, or 0.02 cents per share after
tax, across the current portfolio

Building management fee
1
Current structure
•Flat building management fee of $10,000 (plus GST) per
annum for each property that Investore holds, irrespective of
each property’s complexity and number of tenants
Proposed new structure
•Building management fee to be the greater of:
i.NZ$10,000 (plus GST) per annum (indexed annually to
CPI from base year FY26); or
ii.all building manager’s fees and centre management
expenses (plus GST if applicable) included within the
operating expenses and marketing expenses, but only in
respect of properties acquired, developed or
redeveloped by Investore after the Amendment Date

, the building
management fee will be all building manager’s fees and centre
management expenses (plus GST if applicable), recovered in
respect of the operating expenses and marketing expenses
Additional services fee
•Investore can request the Manager to provide a service not
specified in the Management Agreement, and if the Manager
agrees, it will provide Investore with a scope and fee for such
services

Capital management provisions
The Investore Board is proposing to remove the fixed
50% LVR cap embedded in the capital management
provisions in the Management Agreement so that
LVR and hedging policies will be determined solely
by the Board
•This change aligns Investore with market
practice, as the treasury policy is typically a
Board responsibility for externally managed
vehicles across Australasia, rather than governed
by a management agreement
•Greater flexibility for Investore’s capital structure
to respond to market conditions particularly as it
expands into more diversified retail assets
•Investore remains restricted by its LVR banking
covenant of 60%
•The Board is retaining its LVR policy of targeting
an LVR of between 30-40% over the long term

Other matters for Special Shareholder Meeting

approval of shareholders at the Special Shareholder
Meeting on 20 Oct 25 of:
1.As noted on slide 17, the payment of fees by
Investore to SIML for managing the Silverdale
Centre. If the Management Agreement
amendments described above are not approved,
the Silverdale Centre acquisition will not occur
unless this proposed resolution to approve the
Silverdale Centre Letter is approved; and
2.The ratification for the purposes of the NZX
Listing Rules of the issue of Notes (and deemed
number of shares to be issued upon conversion
of the Notes)

Letter from the Independent Chair
Resolutions to be considered
There are four resolutions to be considered at the Special
Meeting relating to matters that were referred to in Investore’s
market announcement to NZX on 8 September 2025, being, in
broad terms, resolutions to:
1. approve the acquisition by Investore of the Silverdale
Centre from Stride Property Limited (SPL) (the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition) (Resolution 1);
2. approve the Silverdale Centre Letter, relating to the
payment of additional fees by Investore to its manager,
Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML) for
managing the Silverdale Centre (the Silverdale Centre
Fees) (Resolution 2);
3. approve certain amendments to Investore’s Management
Agreement with its manager, SIML (the Management
Agreement Amendments) (Resolution 3); and
4. approve the ratification of the issue of Notes by Investore
which is expected to occur on 26 September 2025
(together with the number of shares that the Listing Rules
deem to be issued on conversion as at the date of the
Offer), prior to the Special Meeting (Resolution 4).
To ensure that SIML receives fees for the additional services
that would result from managing Silverdale Centre on behalf
of Investore, the approval of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
will only become effective if the Silverdale Centre Letter or the
Management Agreement Amendments are also approved.
If Shareholders approve the Management Agreement
Amendments, fees payable to SIML in respect of managing
the Silverdale Centre will be included in those broader set of
amendments to the Management Agreement and the Silverdale
Centre Letter would not take effect. If, on the other hand, the
Management Agreement Amendments are not approved, the
Silverdale Centre Letter would apply to the payment of any fees
to SIML for managing the Silverdale Centre. The quantum of
fees payable to SIML for managing the Silverdale Centre would
be the same in each case. The current annual cost to Investore
of these fees (net of recoveries from tenants) is estimated to be
approximately $134,000.
Further important information about those four resolutions
is also set out in the Explanatory Notes, and in the Appraisal
Report in the case of Resolution 1, Resolution 2 and
Resolution 3.
Material Transactions with a Related Party
As the independent Chair of Investore, I wish to take the
opportunity to highlight some key points relating to the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre Fees and
the Management Agreement Amendments.
Each of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre
Fees and the Management Agreement Amendments will be
a Material Transaction for the purpose of the “Related Party”
rules of the Listing Rules and therefore subject to Shareholder
approval by way of ordinary resolution (excluding those
Shareholders who are prohibited by the Listing Rules from
voting in favour).
Dear Shareholders,
We are pleased to invite you to attend
the Special Meeting of Shareholders of
Investore Property Limited (Investore),
which will be held as a virtual meeting
only using Computershare’s Meeting
Platform meetnow.global/nz,
commencing at 10.30 am on Monday,
20 October 2025.
Northington Partners has been engaged by Investore in
accordance with requirements under the NZX Listing Rules
to prepare an Appraisal Report on each of these Material
Transactions. A summary of some of their key conclusions is
set out in the Explanatory Notes. Overall, Northington Partners
have assessed:
(a) the purchase value and terms of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition to be fair to Shareholders (excluding SPL and
those Shareholders associated with SPL);
(b) the Silverdale Centre Fees to be fair to Shareholders
(excluding those Shareholders associated with SIML; and
(c) the Management Agreement Amendments to be fair to
Shareholders (excluding those Shareholders associated
with SIML).
The Appraisal Report accompanies this Notice of Special
Meeting and should be read and considered by Shareholders
before voting on Resolution 1, Resolution 2 and Resolution 3.
Independent and robust process adopted
Due to the relationship between Investore and Stride Property
Group (being an NZX listed entity comprising SPL and SIML
whose shares are stapled together, and SIML being Investore’s
and SPL’s manager), independence and the management of any
perceived and actual conflicts of interest is an integral feature
of Investore’s governance practices.
As with previous transactions that Investore has presented to
Shareholders, the Board was mindful to ensure an independent
and robust process was followed where Shareholders would
have confidence in the integrity of all aspects of the process
and that any subsequent Board recommendations about the
transactions would be made on the basis that those matters
deliver the best outcome for Investore and its Shareholders.
The process relating to the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the
Silverdale Centre Letter and the Management Agreement
Amendments was managed by the independent Directors
and negotiated on an arm’s length basis, with the following
measures adopted to ensure an independent process:
• The independent Directors of Investore, being Gráinne
Troute, Adrian Walker and myself (Mike Allen), managed the
negotiation of:
-the Sale and Purchase Agreement relating to the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition with the board of SPL,
with the assistance of legal advisors appointed by the
independent Directors;
-the Silverdale Centre Letter with the board of SIML,
with the assistance of legal advisors appointed by the
independent Directors; and
-the amendments to the Management Agreement
with the board of SIML, with the assistance of legal
advisors appointed by the independent Directors.
In each case, those legal advisors were independent of
Stride Property Group and reported solely to us, as the
independent Directors.
• SIML has demonstrated to our satisfaction that the
standing conflicts protocol of SIML (Investore and SPL’s
manager) was adhered to in negotiating the transactions.
This involved separate teams within SIML assisting
Investore and Stride Property Group. In addition, a conflicts
protocol specific to the transactions was adopted, which
was reviewed by the independent legal advisors to
Investore’s independent Directors.
• An independent valuation of the Silverdale Centre was
obtained from JLL as at 11 August 2025 for the purposes
of the proposed Silverdale Centre Acquisition, with the
valuation supporting the purchase price.
• In accordance with the requirements of the Listing Rules,
the valuer (JLL) and the independent appraiser for the
Appraisal Report (Northington Partners) were approved by
NZX.
• As required by the Listing Rules, the SIML-appointed
Investore Directors, Tim Storey and Ross Buckley,
abstained from voting on the Board approval of the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre Fees
and the Management Agreement Amendments.
The independent Directors met without the SIML-
appointed Investore Directors present to discuss and
consider the transactions.
Why support the Silverdale Centre Acquisition?
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition presents a compelling
opportunity:
• it aligns with Investore’s broader strategy of targeted
growth through investing in high quality assets located in
key metro areas with strong growth characteristics;
• it is being acquired for $114 million, with the purchase
price supported by an independent valuation;
• it is expected to have a positive financial impact,
delivering an expected initial yield
1
of 6.8% resulting in an
increase in Distributable Profit of 3.0%
2
in the first year of
ownership; and
• it will further diversify Investore’s tenant base, reducing
Investore’s largest tenant exposure, Woolworths, from
59% to 54% by Contract Rental.
Further information about the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is
set out in the Explanatory Notes to Resolution 1.
1. Yield is calculated based on the annualised net Contract Rental for the Silverdale Centre divided by the purchase price.
2. The expected increase in Distributable Profit has been calculated by comparing Investore’s forecasted Distributable Profit for the 12 month period
to 31 October 2026 (12 months following the expected settlement of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition) (a) assuming that the Offer, Silverdale Centre
Acquisition and Management Agreement Amendments did not occur, against (b) assuming the issue of $62.5 million of Notes, the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition and the payment of the Silverdale Centre Fees did occur.

Letter from the Independent Chair (cont.)
Why support the Silverdale Centre Letter?
As noted above, the Silverdale Centre Acquisition presents a
compelling opportunity, and SIML ought to be paid fees for
the additional services that would be provided to Investore if
it becomes part of Investore’s portfolio. If the Management
Agreement Amendments, as a whole, are approved (including
the fee changes) those fees would be payable under the
Management Agreement (as amended).
Accordingly, the Silverdale Centre Letter should be considered
only as a fall-back to ensure that SIML is paid fees for managing
that property in the scenario where Shareholders support
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition but not the broader set of
amendments contemplated by the Management Agreement
Amendments.
Further information about the Silverdale Centre Letter is set out
in the Explanatory Notes to Resolution 2.
Why support the Management Agreement
Amendments?
The Management Agreement Amendments include:
• an expansion of Investore’s current mandate into
convenience-based retail properties, which is a resilient
and attractive sector that complements Investore’s
existing large format retail portfolio;
• amendments to the building management fee structure to
introduce a more equitable and market-aligned structure
(rather than the current flat fee of $10,000 per annum for
each property held by Investore);
• flexibility for additional management resource intensive
services that are not contemplated by the Management
Agreement to be requested by Investore, and for the
scope and fees for such services to be agreed between
Investore and SIML; and
• amendments to the capital management provisions so
that the LVR and hedging policies will be determined
solely by the Board.
The Management Agreement Amendments are being
proposed to ensure that Investore is well-positioned to
pursue strategic, targeted growth opportunities to deliver a
resilient and growing income stream, optimising returns for
Shareholders. In particular:
• the expanded mandate would provide capacity to
continue our approach of targeted growth while retaining
the key portfolio benefits that Investore has established;
• the building management fee amendment would remove
the misalignment with both market practice and with the
management intensification required to manage multi-
tenanted retail centres if Investore’s investment mandate
is to include convenience-based retail properties; and
• the capital management provision amendments would
align with market practice and provide greater flexibility to
the Board.
None of the proposed amendments to the Management
Agreement are required in order to permit the Silverdale Centre
to be owned by Investore and managed by SIML, but are being
made to give effect to the proposed broader strategy that the
Board is recommending to Shareholders of expanding our
portfolio into convenience-based retail properties.
Further information about the Management Agreement
Amendments is set out in the Explanatory Notes to Resolution 3.
Recommendations to vote in favour of all of
the Resolutions
The Board (constituted by the independent Directors)
recommends Shareholders vote in favour of the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre Letter and the
Management Agreement Amendments (being Resolution
1, Resolution 2 and Resolution 3), as we consider those
transactions to be in the best interests of Investore and you, as
a Shareholder.
In addition, the Board as a whole recommends that
Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4, being the resolution
to ratify the issue of Notes (together with the number of shares
that the Listing Rules deem to be issued on conversion as at the
date of the Offer) as we consider it prudent to have this capacity
to issue shares available.
I encourage all Shareholders to read this Notice of Special
Meeting in its entirety, including the enclosed Appraisal Report
from Northington Partners. Thank you for your continued
support and we look forward to the meeting on 20 October
2025.
Yours sincerely,
Mike Allen

and Chair of the Board

Explanatory Notes
Resolution 1 – Approval of Silverdale Centre Acquisition
1. Details of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
Property description
The Silverdale Centre is an open-air retail centre located
in a high-growth metropolitan catchment north of
Auckland with approximately 39 tenants. The Silverdale
Centre is situated in a strong growth corridor, and
the catchment benefits from population growth and
residential development driving retail demand. The
Silverdale Centre catchment is expected to grow to
approximately 125,000 individuals in 2048, representing
a 48% growth from 2023
3
.
The property is anchored by everyday needs retailers
Woolworths and The Warehouse, complemented by a mix
of specialty tenants that serve as “mini-anchors,” which
contribute to visitation and a resilient income profile.
These mini-anchor stores such as Noel Leeming, Chemist
Warehouse and Supercheap Auto provide Investore with
greater tenant diversification to a wider range of retail
categories, while still underpinned by non-discretionary
everyday needs tenants.
The property has a low site coverage, with approximately
23,000sqm of NLA over a 70,000sqm site meaning that
the underlying landholding helps to underpin the property
valuation.
Terms and conditions of acquisition
As advised in the market announcement on 8 September
2025, Investore entered into the conditional Sale and
Purchase Agreement to acquire the Silverdale Centre
from SPL on 8 September 2025.
The purchase price for the property is $114 million.
An independent valuation of the Silverdale Centre
was obtained from JLL, with the valuation supporting
the acquisition price. Refer to Section 6.1 (Value and
Purchase Price) of the Appraisal Report for further
information regarding how JLL assessed the value of the
Silverdale Centre.
It is expected that the only outstanding condition of the
Sale and Purchase Agreement at the date of the Special
Meeting is the approval by Shareholders of the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition. The condition requiring approval
by the Board is expected to be satisfied on or before
22 September 2025, and all other conditions and
approvals to settlement of the purchase (including
the approval of the board of SPL) have been satisfied.
Legal, technical and environmental due diligence was
undertaken by Investore prior to the execution of the Sale
and Purchase Agreement.
If the Silverdale Centre Acquisition (and associated
management fees under either Resolution 2 or Resolution
3) are approved by Shareholders, the Sale and Purchase
Agreement will be declared unconditional. In such case,
Investore will pay a deposit of $5,700,000 (being 5% of
the purchase price), with the remainder of the purchase
price payable at the time of settlement. Settlement is
scheduled to occur on 31 October 2025. However, if
Resolution 1 is not passed (including as a result of neither
Resolution 2 nor Resolution 3 being passed), the Sale
and Purchase Agreement will be terminated, and the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition will not proceed.
Consistent with what would typically be expected in a
commercial transaction of this nature and size, other key
terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement include:
• The approval of the Board within 10 working days of
the execution date (being 22 September 2025).
• The approval of the board of SPL by 31 October
2025 (this condition has been satisfied).
• The Silverdale Centre is sold subject to, but with the
benefit of, the existing leases.
• Warranties are given by SPL as vendor, including:
-corporate warranties in respect of the solvency
of SPL and the enforceability of the Sale and
Purchase Agreement against SPL;
-title warranties in respect of the valid entitlement
of SPL to the Silverdale Centre and confirmations
that the property is not subject to any third party
options or rights to acquire the property;
-standard building warranties in respect of any
charges or levies against the Silverdale Centre,
works completed, compliance schedules and all
notices and demands;
-lease warranties in respect of there being no
material defaults, disputes, side agreements
or outstanding demands with tenants and that
leases are valid, enforceable and accurate and
all relevant incentives which have been granted
by SPL prior to the date of the Sale and Purchase
Agreement will be credited to Investore on
settlement;
-information warranties in respect of the accuracy
and completeness of the due diligence materials;
-litigation warranties of there being no actual or
threatened claims or litigation in respect of an
interest in the Silverdale Centre or which may
affect any of the leases; and
-other general warranties in respect of disputes,
breaches of environmental law, compulsory
acquisition notes and valid insurance
confirmations.
3. Colliers, “Retail Catchment Analysis Silverdale Centre”, November 2023.
• Investore may only make a claim for breach of
warranty if such claim (or series of related claims) is
made within 12 months of the Settlement Date, and
the total aggregate amount of the claims exceeds
$50,000 but is no more than $11,400,000 (being
10% of the purchase price). However, if there is a
breach of a corporate warranty or a title warranty
then the maximum claim shall instead be up to
the amount of the purchase price of the Silverdale
Centre.
• The manager of the Silverdale Centre shall continue
to be SIML, and management shall be undertaken on
the terms of the Management Agreement.
• If, within one year of the Settlement Date, the New
Zealand government enacts legislation for an
alternative earthquake rating system in New Zealand,
or there is an update to any of the relevant guidelines
or standards which are applicable to assessing the
earthquake rating of buildings, then SPL will obtain a
new seismic assessment on certain buildings in the
Silverdale Centre which have seismic ratings of less
than 67% New Building Standard (NBS) within two
years from the Settlement Date.
• If the relevant legislation does not change or the new
seismic assessment referred to above does not show
such buildings as having an NBS rating of greater
than or equal to 67%, then, at the option of Investore,
SPL will either undertake seismic strengthening
works up to a maximum cost of $800,000 plus GST
(if any) or upon the parties agreeing the cost and
scope of such works, SPL will reimburse part of the
purchase price up to a maximum of $800,000 plus
GST (if any) for Investore to undertake the seismic
strengthening works (which shall be recorded as
a reduction in the purchase price). The cost of the
seismic strengthening works is estimated to be
$750,000 plus GST (if any), including contingencies.
The property has been inspected by Investore, its
technical advisor, and JLL (independent valuer appointed
as part of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition process), as
part of the due diligence process, including provision
of an independent valuation. Legal documentation
relating to the property such as the title, leases and the
Land Information Memorandum (LIM) report have been
reviewed by Investore’s independent legal advisors prior
to the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement.

2. Rationale for the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
Explanatory Notes (cont.)
Alignment
with strategy
The Silverdale Centre
supports Investore’s
three strategic
principles as follows:
Our StrategyAlignment
Targeted Growth
Focus on acquisitions and
developments in key metro
locations, while continuing to
enhance portfolio scale, tenant
diversification and growth outlook
• $1.1 billion pro forma Investment Portfolio value
post transaction
4
, an increase of approximately 12%
• Property is located in Silverdale, a fast growing
area in the Auckland region, with the catchment
projected to grow 48%
5
from 2023 to 2048
• Provides diversification of tenant mix, with a
broader retail offering, including new nationally
recognised retailers such as ANZ, Chemist
Warehouse, The Warehouse and Noel Leeming,
and introducing 32 new tenants to the Investore
portfolio
• The majority of Contract Rental at the Silverdale
Centre is subject to structured or market rent
reviews, underpinning the growth outlook
Continued Optimisation of
the Portfolio
Collaborate with tenants to expand
and improve existing properties, and
over time recycle capital into further
strategically aligned investment
opportunities
• Disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay for
$24.4 million helps to provide balance sheet
capacity for the acquisition of the Silverdale Centre
• The initial yield for the Silverdale Centre of 6.8%
compares favourably with the initial yield of the
above disposal, being 5.4%
• Further portfolio repositioning to be explored post
settlement of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
Proactive Capital Management
Proactively manage capital to
maintain a healthy and flexible
balance sheet for growth, while
preserving sustainable returns
to investors
• Notes Offer provides Investore with access to a
new source of capital, resulting in greater funding
diversification
• Post transaction pro forma LVR expected to be
40.2%
6
• 8.2% projected unlevered property return
7
from
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition to exceed
Investore’s weighted average cost of capital,
supports Investore’s goal of delivering total returns
to shareholders over the medium to long term
that are resilient across a wide range of market
conditions
Disciplined growth
Investore is committed to ensuring that any growth will be undertaken in a considered and
disciplined manner, through acquisitions and developments that enhance the quality of
Investore’s portfolio and optimise returns for shareholders. With the Board proposing to amend
the investment policy contained in the Management Agreement to expand into convenience-
based retail properties, the Board’s focus has been to look for additional opportunities to grow
Investore’s portfolio and enhance shareholder returns.
Tenant diversification
The acquisition would support Investore’s portfolio rebalancing strategy by reducing the
Woolworths (General Distributors Limited) tenancy concentration, which, after the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition completes, will reduce from 59% to 54%
8
. The Silverdale Centre Acquisition
will also introduce 32 new tenants into Investore’s portfolio, including nationally recognised
retailers such as Chemist Warehouse, The Warehouse and Noel Leeming. Post acquisition the
portfolio’s Auckland weighting
9
will also increase from 42% to 48%.

9. See note 8 above.
10. 31 March 2025 LVR, pro forma for the acquisition of Bunnings New Lynn and the disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay.
11. The expected increase in Distributable Profit has been calculated by comparing Investore’s forecasted Distributable Profit for the 12 month period
to 31 October 2026 (12 months following the expected settlement of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition) (a) assuming that the Offer, Silverdale Centre
Acquisition and Management Agreement Amendments did not occur, against (b) assuming the issue of $62.5 million of Notes, the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition and the payment of the Silverdale Centre Fees did occur.
3. Financial impact of the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition would deliver greater
diversification and rental growth to Investore’s rental
income profile, with 57% of Contract Rental at the
Silverdale Centre subject to structured rent reviews, and a
further 30% subject to market-based rent reviews.
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition will be funded with
bank debt. With the net proceeds from the issue of the
Notes to be used to repay bank debt, the pro forma LVR,
including the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, will increase
marginally from 39.4%
10
to 40.2%, or to 45.6% if the
issue of the Notes does not proceed. This is well below
the bank LVR covenant limit of 60%, preserving balance
sheet resilience. The resulting portfolio diversification
and rental growth prospects from the acquisition of
the Silverdale Centre are expected to be accretive to
Distributable Profit by approximately 3.0%
11
in the first
year of ownership (on the assumption the transaction
settles on 31 October 2025).
Investore has incurred one-off costs for the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition of approximately $0.4 million, which
are not impacted by the outcome of the Shareholder vote.
4. Fees payable to SIML as a result of the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition
To ensure that SIML is fairly compensated for the
additional work that would be required in connection
with managing the Silverdale Centre, the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition will only be approved if either the
Management Agreement Amendments or the Silverdale
Centre Letter come into effect.
If the Management Agreement Amendments are
approved, SIML will be paid the relevant fees in respect of
the Silverdale Centre under the Management Agreement
(as amended under Resolution 3). As set out in the
Explanatory Notes to Resolution 3, the fee amendments
are being made in part to address the increased workload
of the manager in respect of properties such as the
Silverdale Centre.
However, if the Management Agreement Amendments
are not approved, the Silverdale Centre Acquisition will
not occur unless the Silverdale Centre Fees are approved.
In such case, SIML will be paid the relevant fees in respect
of managing the Silverdale Centre under the Silverdale
Centre Letter.
Any fees payable to SIML in respect of the Silverdale
Centre will be the same, whether payable under the
Management Agreement (as amended under Resolution
3) or the Silverdale Centre Letter. The current annual cost
to Investore of these fees (net of recoveries from tenants)
is estimated to be approximately $134,000.

5. How will the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
be funded?
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition will be funded with
bank debt.
Investore has entered into a new facility agreement with
some of its existing lenders to advance a facility of up
to $100 million to be used for the purposes of funding
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition. The net proceeds of
the Offer of the Notes will be used to repay bank debt,
such that together the Notes and the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition are expected to have only a +0.8% impact to
Investore’s pro forma LVR.
6. What are the implications of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition not proceeding?
If the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is not approved
by Shareholders, settlement of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition will not occur. In this situation, there will be
no financial penalties for Investore under the Sale and
Purchase Agreement.
Investore will use the net proceeds from the Offer of
the Notes to position its balance sheet to enable
Investore to pursue other strategic investment
opportunities in the near term. The pro forma LVR
is 33.4%
12
if the Silverdale Centre Acquisition does
not proceed, but gross proceeds of $62.5 million are
raised under the Offer, compared with 39.4%
13
without
the Offer or the Silverdale Centre Acquisition having
occurred. The pro forma LVRs if the Silverdale Acquisition
occurs is set out in paragraph 3 above.
While the impact of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition not
proceeding would in the short term reduce Distributable
Profit and result in a more conservative balance sheet,
this outcome would also provide Investore with the
capacity to pursue other large format retail opportunities.
While there is no current alternative to the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition that could be undertaken today,
Investore is continuously assessing an active pipeline of
opportunities which should help to negate any short-term
dilutive impact of the Offer of the Notes if the transaction
does not proceed.
7. Listing Rule requirements for the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is a Material Transaction
with a Related Party of Investore for the purposes of
Listing Rule 5.2.1(a), as described below.
• Material Transactions – Listing Rule 5.2.1(a):
Listing Rule 5.2.1(a) states that an issuer must not
enter into a “Material Transaction” if a “Related Party”
is, or is likely to become, a direct party to the Material
Transaction, unless that Material Transaction is
approved by an ordinary resolution or conditional on
such approval. Under the Listing Rules, a Material
Transaction includes an acquisition of assets
having an “aggregate net value” in excess of 10%
of the issuer’s Average Market Capitalisation. The
Silverdale Centre Acquisition qualifies as a Material
Transaction for Investore, because the Average
Market Capitalisation of Investore for this purpose
is approximately $440 million as at the date of the
Notice of Special Meeting, and so the threshold for
a Material Transaction, being 10% of this amount,
is approximately $44 million. The $114 million
purchase price is in excess of this amount.
• Related Party: SPL is an 18.83% shareholder
in Investore. SPL is therefore a Related Party of
Investore for the purposes of the Listing Rules.
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition will only occur if:
(a) Resolution 1; and
(b) either Resolution 2 or Resolution 3,
are approved by ordinary resolution of Shareholders
eligible to vote on each resolution.
For more information on the voting restrictions in relation
to each resolution, please refer to the Procedural Notes
and Other Information section of this Notice of Special
Meeting.
8. Appraisal Report
Listing Rule 7.8.8(b) requires that the relevant Notice of
Special Meeting provided to Shareholders for approval of
a Related Party transaction must be accompanied by an
appraisal report. The Appraisal Report has been prepared
by Northington Partners for the benefit of Shareholders
(other than SPL and those Shareholders associated with
SPL), in accordance with Listing Rules 7.10 and 7.8.8(b)
and is enclosed with this Notice of Special Meeting.
Northington Partners have confirmed in the Appraisal
Report that, in its opinion, the purchase value and terms of
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition are fair to Shareholders
(other than SPL and those Shareholders associated with
SPL).
12. 31 March 2025 LVR, pro forma for the acquisition of Bunnings

13. 31 March 2025 LVR, pro forma for the acquisition of Bunnings
New Lynn and the disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay.
Explanatory Notes (cont.)
The Appraisal Report noted, among other things, that:
• the proposed purchase price of $114.0 million is
supported by the independent market valuation (as
at 11 August 2025, per JLL);
• under the terms of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition, SPL has agreed to fund certain seismic
strengthening works on selected buildings, capped
at $800,000;
• given the proposed purchase price is supported
by an independent valuation and consistent with
recent transaction evidence for similar properties,
Northington Partners consider the acquisition to
reflect market arm’s length purchase price terms.
The Appraisal Report considers, among other things, that
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition:
• is aligned with Investore’s strategy to acquire quality
large format retail assets;
• represents a different mix of large format retail
tenants broadly consistent with Investore’s definition
of large format retail property, as contemplated by
the current Management Agreement;
• diversifies the existing tenant base, reducing
exposure to Investore’s largest tenant Woolworths
and introducing new nationally recognised tenants to
the Investore portfolio;
• enhances Investore’s scale and increases the
geographic exposure to the high-growth Auckland
area;
• is expected to result in an increase in pro forma
Distributable Profit for the first 12 months following
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition completing; and
• will become Investore’s single largest asset by
value, representing approximately 10% of the total
portfolio value.
You should read the Appraisal Report in full. For more
information on the scope of the Appraisal Report and
Northington Partners’ assessment of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition, refer to Section 6 of the Appraisal Report.
9. Recommendation
The independent Directors view the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition as being in the best interests of Investore and
its Shareholders and it is on this basis that the Board
(constituted by the independent Directors) recommends
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition to Shareholders for
approval and recommend Shareholders vote in favour of
Resolution 1.
See also the Recommendations in respect of Resolution
2 and Resolution 3, given Resolution 1 will only pass if at
least one of those Resolutions also passes.
Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders 2025Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders 2025Investore Property LimitedInvestore Property Limited

Resolution 2 – Approval of the Silverdale Centre Letter
1. Details of the Silverdale Centre Letter
The Silverdale Centre Letter sets out the incremental
fees that would be payable by Investore to SIML for
managing the Silverdale Centre over and above the
fees contemplated under the current Management
Agreement, and provides for SIML’s consent to the
acquisition to the extent that such consent is required
under the Constitution.
A copy of the Silverdale Centre Letter between SIML
and Investore may be reviewed on Investore’s website
(www.investoreproperty.co.nz), under “Special Meeting”.
Silverdale Centre Fees
If Resolution 1 is passed, but Resolution 3 is not passed,
it is proposed that SIML will be paid all building manager’s
fees and centre management expenses (plus GST if
applicable) included within the operating expenses and
marketing expenses for the Silverdale Centre under the
terms of the Silverdale Centre Letter.
Those additional fees are to compensate SIML for
the additional work required on behalf of Investore
in connection with managing the Silverdale Centre.
The Silverdale Centre Fees are recorded in the
Silverdale Centre Letter and would be a variation to the
Management Agreement.
The Silverdale Centre Fees payable in respect of
managing the Silverdale Centre would constitute a
“Material Transaction” with a “Related Party” of Investore
under the Listing Rules, as described below. Please also
refer to further information about the Silverdale Centre
Fees in the Appraisal Report.
Consent under the Constitution
As described in paragraph 2 of the Explanatory Notes
to Resolution 3, under its Constitution, Investore is not
permitted to carry on any business activities other than
the “Permitted Business Activities” (as defined in the
Constitution) without the consent of SIML as manager.
Whilst the ownership of the Silverdale Centre is
considered to fall within the definition of “Permitted
Business Activities”, SIML has, in any event and for good
order, provided its consent to that acquisition in the
Silverdale Centre Letter.
Inter-relationship with other Resolutions
If Resolution 2 is passed, the Silverdale Centre Letter
will only take effect if Resolution 1 (detailed above)
is approved, and Resolution 3 (detailed below) is not
approved, by Shareholders.
If Resolution 1, Resolution 2 and Resolution 3 are all
approved, the Silverdale Acquisition and the Management
Agreement Amendments would take effect, and the
Silverdale Centre Letter would automatically terminate. In
other words, the Management Agreement Amendments
would take precedence over the Silverdale Centre Letter.
2. What are the implications of the Silverdale Centre
Letter not being approved
If the Silverdale Centre Letter is not approved by
Shareholders, settlement of the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition will only occur if both the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition (see Resolution 1) and the Management
Agreement Amendments (see Resolution 3) are approved
by Shareholders.
3. Listing Rule requirements for the Silverdale
Centre Fees
Payment of the Silverdale Centre Fees under the
Silverdale Centre Letter would be a Material Transaction
with a Related Party of Investore for the purposes of
Listing Rule 5.2.1(a), as described below.
• Material Transactions – Listing Rule 5.2.1(a):
Listing Rule 5.2.1(a) states that an issuer must not
enter into a “Material Transaction” if a “Related Party”
is, or is likely to become, a direct party to the Material
Transaction, unless that Material Transaction is
approved by an ordinary resolution or conditional on
such approval. Under the Listing Rules, a Material
Transaction includes an issuer obtaining any services
where the gross cost to the issuer in any financial
year is likely to exceed an amount equal to 1% of the
issuer’s Average Market Capitalisation. Approval of
the Silverdale Centre Fees qualifies as a Material
Transaction for Investore, because the Average
Market Capitalisation of Investore for this purpose
is approximately $440 million as at the date of the
Notice of Special Meeting, and so the threshold for
a Material Transaction, being 1% of this amount, is
approximately $4.4 million. The gross cost in any
financial year to Investore of the services provided by
SIML, as manager, exceeds that amount.
• Related Party: SIML is a Related Party of Investore
as it is an Associated Person of:
(a) SPL, and SPL is a Related Party of Investore (as
an 18.83% shareholder in Investore); and
(b) Investore directors Tim Storey and Ross Buckley
(as they are directors of SIML).

Explanatory Notes (cont.)
4. Appraisal Report
Listing Rule 7.8.8(b) requires that the relevant notice
of meeting provided to Shareholders for approval of a
Related Party transaction must be accompanied by an
appraisal report. The Appraisal Report has been prepared
by Northington Partners for the benefit of Shareholders
(other than those Shareholders associated with SIML), in
accordance with Listing Rules 7.10 and 7.8.8(b) and is
enclosed with this Notice of Special Meeting.
Northington Partners have confirmed in the Appraisal
Report that, in its opinion, the Silverdale Centre Fees
are fair to Shareholders (other than those Shareholders
associated with SIML).
The Appraisal Report consider that the Silverdale
Centre Fees:
• seeks to fairly compensate SIML for the additional
costs required in managing the Silverdale Centre on
behalf of Investore, consistent with how the property
is currently managed and reflects the management
resource requirements for large multi-tenanted
properties; and
• are, in part (approximately $115,000), recoverable
from tenants, with the net non-recoverable
component of approximately $134,000 largely
reflecting non-recoverable costs associated with
major tenants;
• are reflected in both the valuation for the Silverdale
Centre and the estimated incremental positive
Distributable Profit from the acquisition; and
• reflect commercial arm’s length fees for properties
of a similar nature.
You should read the Appraisal Report in full. For more
information on the scope of the Appraisal Report and
Northington Partners’ assessment of the Silverdale
Centre Fees refer to Section 7 of the Appraisal Report.
5. Recommendation
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the independent Directors
view the Silverdale Centre Fees as being in the best
interests of Investore and its Shareholders and it
is on this basis that the Board (constituted by the
independent Directors) recommends the Silverdale
Centre Letter to Shareholders for approval and
recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2
(in case Resolution 3 is not passed).

Explanatory Notes (cont.)
Resolution 3 – Management Agreement Amendment
1. Details of the Management Agreement
Amendment
It is proposed that the Management Agreement is
amended to:
(a) Expand the investment mandate into convenience-
based retail properties
Scope of expanded investment mandate
The proposed amendment would broaden the investment
mandate to include:
• Investment in convenience-based retail properties
which are typically anchored by nationally
recognised retail companies. Uses are primarily
retail or associated everyday services and can
include, but are not limited to grocery, bulky goods
retailing, factory outlet, convenience retailing, trade-
based retail, general merchandise and health and
community services and ancillary office.
• Assets with development potential, including
those in high-growth urban areas with zoning
that supports intensification or which is able to be
converted into convenience-based retail such as
through change of use, leasing, development and
redevelopment initiatives.
Key benefits
The key benefits of the expanded investment mandate
would be:
• Increased asset opportunities and development
potential: Broadening the mandate would expand
the number of opportunities that Investore could
pursue from solely large format retail to also include
quality convenience-based retail assets which offer
long-term development opportunities, higher IRRs
(internal rate of return), and stronger rental growth
profiles. Assets that have these characteristics align
with Investore’s strategic goals but due to their
tenancy base may not be explicitly covered under
the current investment mandate. This increased
flexibility will improve Investore’s ability to respond
to more opportunities as they arise and adapt more
easily to varying market conditions.
• Strategic Alignment: The proposed mandate
change enables Investore to pursue convenience-
based retail assets with strong growth
characteristics or development potential, such
as those in urban growth corridors or key metro
locations and which are anchored by everyday
needs tenants. This is in line with broader trends in
the Australasian market, with listed REITs moving
towards more flexible and diversified mandates.
The broadened mandate complements Investore’s
existing large format retail portfolio.
• Strategic Growth: Convenience-based retail
typically provides slightly higher yields, greater
tenant diversity and more frequent lease resets often
leading to higher annual rental growth, while large
format retail assets tend to deliver longer leases, low
management intensity and stable income streams.
This is expected to put Investore in a position to
deliver both a resilient and growing income stream,
enhancing returns for Shareholders. This blended
approach also moves Investore in line with its
Australasian peers who have been implementing this
strategy of combining large format retail assets with
convenience-based retail assets in their portfolios.
• Resilience of convenience-based retail:
The everyday needs retail segment has
demonstrated resilience through economic
downturns, including the COVID-19 pandemic.
Investore remains focused on investing in assets
that have tenants that serve everyday needs, which
are typically non-discretionary in nature and provide
stable and resilient income for Shareholders.
• Portfolio rebalancing and diversification:
The current portfolio has a high concentration
of supermarkets (Woolworths represents 59% of
Investore’s Contract Rental). Expanding Investore’s
investment mandate to include convenience-based
retail assets will enable Investore to increase tenant
diversification, reducing concentration risk in
its portfolio.
(b) Amendment to management fee provisions
Scope of proposed amendments
The current fee structure under the Management
Agreement provides for a flat fee that is paid to SIML as
manager of NZ$10,000 per annum, for each property
held by Investore.
The proposed amendments would introduce a more
equitable and market-aligned structure whereby the
building management fee for each property owned or
held by Investore (excluding existing shopping centres
Bay Central Shopping Centre, Mt Wellington Shopping
Centre, and Carr Road Shopping Centre) will be
calculated as the greater of:
• NZ$10,000 per annum (indexed annually to CPI); and
• all building manager’s fees and centre management
expenses (plus GST if applicable) included within
the operating expenses and marketing expenses
for the relevant properties, but only in respect of
properties acquired, developed or redeveloped by
Investore after the Amendment Date. However, this
will not apply to developments or redevelopments
of properties held at the Amendment Date that
have similar tenants, and similar number of tenants
following the development or redevelopment.
For each existing shopping centre, being Bay Central
Shopping Centre, Mt Wellington Shopping Centre and
Carr Road Shopping Centre, the Building Management
Fee will be calculated as all building manager’s fees and
centre management expenses (plus GST if applicable)
recovered in respect of the operating expenses and
marketing expenses for those existing shopping centres.
While the current fee structure of a flat fee, unindexed,
of $10,000 per property was appropriate for Investore’s
original portfolio when it listed in 2016, which primarily
comprised standalone, single-tenanted assets, and
which were lower management intensity assets, it has
become increasingly misaligned with the operational
realities of managing larger, multi-tenanted centres and
prevailing market practice. For example, the $10,000
per annum, per property, fee equates to approximately
0.1% of the Silverdale Centre’s gross income, which
does not accurately reflect the complexity and cost of
managing a centre that has an on-site centre manager
and approximately 39 tenants.
The incremental cost to Investore of the proposed
change to the building management fee is expected
to be approximately $89,000 per annum in relation to
the current portfolio (net of recoveries from tenants).
In addition, there is an estimated cost of approximately
$134,000 per annum payable to SIML (net of recoveries
from tenants) if the Silverdale Centre is acquired.
The Management Agreement also does not currently
provide for the flexibility for the provision of services not
contemplated by the Management Agreement which
require intensive management resource from SIML. In
connection with the proposed Management Agreement
Amendments, if such resource intensive additional
services were to be requested by Investore, the proposed
amendments would allow for the scope and fees for such
services to be agreed.
Key benefits
The key benefits of the amended management fees
would be:
• Fairness and Market Alignment: The flat fee
model for building management fees is no longer
consistent with Investore’s evolving portfolio which
has moved from solely consisting of standalone,
single-tenanted assets to the inclusion of some
more management intensive assets. This will be
exacerbated by the expansion of the mandate to
include convenience-based retail, which requires
this type of more intensive management activity.
The new structure introduces a more dynamic and
equitable fee model ensuring fees are proportionate
to the property’s scale, complexity and tenant
mix, aligning with industry practice and improving
transparency.
• Support for Strategic Growth: As Investore expands
into more complex assets such as the Silverdale
Centre, which includes a mix of anchor and specialty
tenants, SIML must be appropriately resourced to
deliver high-quality asset management. The revised
fee structure ensures SIML can recover costs in
line with the demands of managing larger, more
operationally intensive properties which ensures
properties like the Silverdale Centre (which has
an on-site centre manager) can continue to have
an appropriate level of resource to maintain high
standards of operational performance across a
broader range of asset types reflecting their scale,
complexity, and industry practice.
• Immaterial financial impact: The change, in relation
to the current portfolio, is expected to result in a
modest reduction in Distributable Profit, estimated
at $64,000 per annum after tax, or 0.02 cents per
share after tax. This reflects the correction of historical
over-recoveries from Investore’s existing centre style
properties and to introduce a fair CPI-indexed annual
uplift to the flat management fee structure of $10,000
per property per annum.
• Flexibility: Allowing for fees to be agreed between
Investore and SIML for additional services requested
by Investore that are not contemplated by the
Management Agreement allows Investore to be
responsive to market conditions and opportunities
without relying on costly and capacity dependent
external resources.
(c) Remove the capital management provisions so that
the LVR and hedging policies will be determined
solely by the Board
Scope of proposed amendments
Under the current capital management provisions in the
Management Agreement, the LVR is fixed at a limit of 50%
(or such lower amount set by the Board and SIML). The
proposed amendment to the Management Agreement
would remove the capital management provisions so that
the LVR and hedging policies will be determined solely by
the Board.
The key benefits of the removal of the capital management
provisions would be:
• Market Practice Alignment: The proposed
amendment to the capital management provisions
would align Investore’s governance approach with
market practice. Treasury policy is typically a Board
responsibility for externally managed vehicles across
New Zealand and Australia rather than governed by a
management agreement.
• Flexibility: Assigning the responsibility for the
treasury policy to the Board would increase flexibility
for Investore’s capital structure. The removal of
a prescribed gearing limit in the Management
Agreement would enable Investore to be more
responsive to varying market conditions over the
course of the economic cycle. The Board has a stated
long-term goal of an LVR of between 30-40%.

2021
The amendments to the Management Agreement are
not required to permit the Silverdale Centre to be owned
by Investore and managed by SIML. The Management
Agreement Amendments are proposed to ensure that
Investore is well-positioned to pursue strategic, targeted
growth opportunities and maintain alignment with
market practice.
These amendments are set out in the marked copy of
the Management Agreement which is available on the
Investore website (www.investoreproperty.co.nz) under
“Special Meeting “.
Please also refer to further information about the
Management Agreement Amendments in the
Appraisal Report.
2. No changes to the Constitution
The Management Agreement Amendments relating to
the change in mandate do not require any consequential
changes to the Constitution. Under its Constitution,
Investore is not permitted to:
(a) carry on any business activities other than the
“Permitted Business Activities” (as defined in the
Constitution); or
(b) acquire any land or buildings, or any interest in
any other land or buildings, other than properties
that are predominantly “Large Format Retail
Properties” (as defined in the Constitution), or land or
properties which can be developed or redeveloped
into the same,
without the consent of SIML, as the manager of Investore.
As part of the proposed the Management Agreement
Amendments, SIML, as manager of Investore, has given
its consent to all transactions that are within the updated
mandate contained in the Management Agreement for
the purposes of the Constitution (to the extent that the
Management Agreement Amendments are approved).
A copy of the Constitution is available on the Investore
website (www.investoreproperty.co.nz), in the Investor
Centre.
3. What are the implications of the Management
Agreement Amendments not being approved?
If the Management Agreement Amendments are not
approved, Investore will continue to be permitted to carry
on its business and own properties in accordance with the
existing investment mandate set out in the Management
Agreement and the requirements of the Constitution.
As described at paragraph 4 of the Explanatory
Notes to Resolution 1, if the Management Agreement
Amendments are not approved, the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition will only be approved (and settlement will only
occur) if the Silverdale Centre Letter is also approved by
Shareholders under Resolution 2.
Explanatory Notes (cont.)
4. Listing Rule Requirements for the Management
Agreement Amendments
The Management Agreement Amendments are a Material
Transaction with a Related Party of Investore for the
purposes of Listing Rule 5.2.1(a), as described below.
• Material Transaction – Listing Rule 5.2.1(a): Listing
Rule 5.2.1(a) states that an issuer must not enter
into a “Material Transaction” if a “Related Party” is,
or is likely to become, a direct party to the Material
Transaction, unless that Material Transaction is
approved by an ordinary resolution or conditional on
such approval. Under the Listing Rules, a Material
Transaction includes an issuer obtaining any services
where the gross cost to the issuer in any financial
year is likely to exceed an amount equal to 1% of the
issuer’s Average Market Capitalisation. Entry into
the Management Agreement Amendments qualifies
as a Material Transaction for Investore, because the
Average Market Capitalisation of Investore for this
purpose is approximately $440 million as at the
date of the Notice of Special Meeting, and so the
threshold for a Material Transaction, being 1% of
this amount, is approximately $4.4 million. The gross
cost in any financial year to Investore of the services
provided by SIML, as manager, exceeds that amount.
• Related Party: SIML is a Related Party of Investore
as it is an Associated Person of:
(a) SPL, and SPL is a Related Party of Investore (as
an 18.83% shareholder in Investore); and
(b) Investore directors Tim Storey and Ross Buckley
(as they are directors of SIML).
The Management Agreement Amendments cannot
occur if Resolution 3 is not approved by ordinary
resolution of Shareholders eligible to vote on the
resolution. For more information on the voting restrictions
in relation to Resolution 3, please refer to the Procedural
Notes and Other Information section of this Notice of
Special Meeting.
5. Appraisal Report
Listing Rule 7.8.8(b) requires that the relevant notice
of meeting provided to Shareholders for approval of a
Related Party transaction must be accompanied by an
appraisal report. The Appraisal Report has been prepared
by Northington Partners for the benefit of Shareholders
(other than those Shareholders associated with SIML), in
accordance with Listing Rules 7.10 and 7.8.8(b) and is
enclosed with this Notice of Special Meeting.
Northington Partners have confirmed in the Appraisal
Report that, in its opinion, taking all key elements into
account, the Management Agreement Amendments
are fair to Shareholders (other than those Shareholders
associated with SIML).
The Appraisal Report consider that the Management
Agreement Amendments relating to:
• the investment mandate expansion into convenience-
based retail properties is complementary to the
existing large format retail strategy and enhances
strategic flexibility without shifting Investore into
unrelated asset classes and supports long-term value
creation without any material increase in portfolio risk;
• the building manager fee structure aligns the fee
structure with market practice, while supporting
enhanced property management for increasingly
complex assets. Northington Partners further notes
that even with this amendment the total management
fee load will remain conservative relative to peers; and
• the capital management provisions provide Investore
with greater flexibility and the ability to be more
responsive to market conditions over time without
leading to an open-ended increase in risk given the
Board’s oversight and Investore’s historic track record
of financial leverage.
You should read the Appraisal Report in full. For more
information on the scope of the Appraisal Report and
Northington Partners’ assessment of the Management
Agreement Amendments refer to Section 8 of the
Appraisal Report.
6. Recommendation
The independent Directors view the Management
Agreement Amendments as being in the best interests
of Investore and its Shareholders and it is on this basis
that the Board (constituted by the independent Directors)
recommends the Management Agreement Amendments
to Shareholders for approval and recommend
Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
Resolution 4 – Ratification of issue of convertible
notes and shares
1. Details of issue of Notes
Investore announced the Offer on 8 September 2025,
seeking to raise up to $62.5 million through the issue
of Notes.
The Notes are expected to be issued on 26 September
2025, prior to the Special Meeting. On the conversion
date (expected to be 26 September 2029 or such earlier
date in limited circumstances), the Notes will convert into
ordinary shares in Investore, subject to Investore electing
to pay a full or partial cash amount to holders of Notes at
the end of the term instead of issuing all or some of the
shares on conversion.
The net proceeds of the Offer are expected to be used
to repay bank debt, providing Investore with the flexibility
and additional debt capacity to fund future acquisitions,
including the Silverdale Centre Acquisition (subject to
Resolution 1, and either Resolution 2 or Resolution 3,
being passed), and for general corporate purposes.
All Notes issued under the Offer will, by the date of
the Special Meeting, have been issued under Listing
Rule 4.5.1. In broad terms, that Listing Rule permits an
issue of shares up to 15% of the issued share capital
of Investore in any 12-month period without prior
shareholder approval. Convertible notes which convert
to quoted shares (such as the Notes) may also be issued
under the Listing Rules without shareholder approval if
issued in accordance with Listing Rule 4.5.1, with the
maximum number of Notes that may be issued being
calculated on the basis of a deemed number of shares
being issued upon conversion as set out in the Listing
Rule. In accordance with that calculation, 0.876 shares
will be deemed to be issued upon conversion of each
Note (having a principal amount of $1.00), or a maximum
number of 54,738,186 shares if $62.5 million of Notes
are issued.
Resolution 4 ratifies the issue of the Notes and the
deemed number of shares to be issued upon conversion.
Further details about the Offer and the Notes are set out
or referred to in the Product Disclosure Statement.
2. Purpose of ratification
This resolution is being proposed by the Directors in
accordance with Listing Rule 4.5.1(c), which allows
Shareholders to ratify a prior issuance that took place
under Listing Rule 4.5.1.
If Shareholders pass Resolution 4, and thereby ratify the
issue of the Notes issued under the Offer and the deemed
number of shares to be issued on conversion, Investore’s
capacity to issue shares under Listing Rule 4.5.1 up to
the limit permitted by the rule will be refreshed by up to
54,738,186 shares.
This would preserve the ability of Investore to issue
further shares in accordance with Listing Rule 4.5.1,
should Investore wish to undertake a placement of shares
in the 12-month period from 26 September 2025. The
Board considers it prudent to have this capacity to issue
shares available but notes that Investore has no current
intention to undertake a further capital raise.
Failure to pass Resolution 4 will not affect the validity of the
Notes issued under the Offer but will reduce the number of
shares that can be issued by Investore under Listing Rule
4.5.1 for a period of twelve months from the date of issue
of the Notes (expected to be 26 September 2025).
3. Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders
vote in favour of Resolution 4, as it will provide Investore
with the flexibility to raise money through the issue of
shares under a placement in accordance with Listing Rule
4.5.1 in the next 12 months if required.

Executive Summary
1.0 Executive Summary
1.1. Introduction
Investore Property Limited (“Investore” or the “Company”) is a large format retail (“LFR”) property
vehicle that is listed on the main board of the NZX. Investore is externally managed by Stride
Investment Management Limited (“SIML”), the real estate management business of the stapled group
which comprises Stride Property Limited (“SPL”) and SIML (together “Stride Property Group”).
Investore was listed by SPL in 2016 following the demerger of SPL’s large format retail (“LFR”)
properties and the acquisition of certain other LFR properties partially funded through its $185 million
initial public offering (“IPO”). Following the IPO, SPL retained a 19.9% shareholding in Investore and
currently has a 18.8% shareholding.
Investore owns a portfolio of 43 LFR properties with an aggregate value of ~$1 billion (post-
acquisition of Bunnings New Lynn in June 2025 and disposal of Woolworths Browns Bay in
September 2025). SPL directly owns a portfolio of 3 retail centres and 6 office properties with an
aggregate value of $976 million as at 31 March 2025 (excluding properties classified as
“Development & Other”). SPL also has shareholdings in each of the other funds managed by SIML,
for a total portfolio value on a look-through basis of approximately $1.5 billion as at 31 March 2025.
Investore is seeking to acquire the Silverdale Centre retail property (“Silverdale Centre”) from SPL
for a total purchase price of $114 million (the “Silverdale Centre Acquisition”). Located in
Silverdale, 32km north of Auckland’s CBD, the Silverdale Centre is an open-air retail centre anchored
by The Warehouse Group and Woolworths. Investore is planning to fund the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition through bank debt, utilising Investore’s facilities, and is also expecting to utilise proceeds
from a subordinated convertible note to be offered under a product disclosure statement and quoted
on the NZX Debt Market (“Convertible Note”).
In addition, Investore is seeking shareholder approval for either of:
a) Specific fees associated with managing the Silverdale Centre to fairly compensate SIML for
the additional work required in connection with managing the property over and above the
fees payable under the current management agreement (the “Silverdale Centre Fees”).
The Silverdale Centre Fees are recorded in the side-letter between SIML and Investore (the
“Silverdale Centre Letter”) and will only come into effect in certain circumstances (see
further below); or
b) Broader amendments to the management agreement between Investore and SIML, dated
10 June 2016 and subsequently amended on 8 September 2017 (the “Management
Agreement”). The proposed changes to the Management Agreement (the “Management
Agreement Amendments”) include broadening the scope of the investment policy to
include convenience-based retail (“CBR”) properties (of which LFR may be considered a
sub-sector), changes to management fee provisions and the removal of capital management
provisions reserving loan-to-value ratio (“LVR”) and hedging policy decisions for the
Investore Board.
As the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, Silverdale Centre Letter and the Management Agreement
Amendments will each constitute a material transaction with a related party under NZX Listing Rule
5.2.1, each must be approved by an ordinary resolution of Investore’s shareholders not associated
with SPL (including any Director of SPL in the case of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition) and not
associated with SIML (including any Director and senior manager of SIML in the case of the
Silverdale Centre Letter and Management Agreement Amendments (“Non-associated
Shareholders”)). As part of that process, Investore has appointed Northington Partners Limited
(“Northington Partners”) to prepare an Appraisal Report for the benefit of Non-associated
Shareholders. The main purpose of the Appraisal Report is to assist those shareholders to decide
whether or not to approve the Silverdale Centre Acquisition and Silverdale Centre Letter or
Management Agreement Amendments. These resolutions are detailed in the notice of special
meeting (“Notice of Special Meeting”) as resolutions 1 to 3 respectively sent to Investore
shareholders (along with a separate 4
th
resolution not subject to this Appraisal Report).
If the first resolution relating to the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is approved, either of resolution 2
(Silverdale Centre Letter) or resolution 3 (Management Agreement Amendments) must also be
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report Page | 6
Executive Summary
approved in order for Investore to proceed with the Silverdale Centre Acquisition. If resolutions 1 to 3
are all approved, resolution 3 (Management Agreement Amendments) will take precedent and the
Silverdale Centre Letter would not come into effect. However, the Management Agreement
Amendments may be approved independently of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition.
As set out in more detail in Section 2.0, this report has been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of NZX Listing Rule 7.10.2.
1.2. Summary of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
As set out in Table 1 below, the purchase price of $114 million (the “Purchase Price”) for the
Silverdale Centre is equivalent to its current market valuation and implies a passing yield of 6.8%,
slightly above the passing yield of Investore’s existing portfolio of 6.5% (pro-forma, including
Bunnings New Lynn, “BNL”, and excluding Woolworths Browns Bay, “WBB”). The current market
valuation of the Silverdale Centre was determined by Jones Lang LaSalle Limited (“JLL”) as at 11
August 2025.
We note that the conditions of sale and purchase for the Silverdale Centre Acquisition have largely
been satisfied other than approval by Investore’s shareholders (Investore Board’s approval is
expected to be satisfied within 10 working days of the execution date). Subject to these approvals,
Investore expects settlement of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition will occur on 31 October 2025.
Further details about the Silverdale Centre Acquisition terms can be found in Section 5.1.

Purchase
Terms
The proposed purchase price of $114 million for the Silverdale Centre is
equivalent to its market value independently assessed by JLL (as at 11
August 2025).
Under the terms of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, SPL has agreed to
either undertake certain seismic works (up to a cap of $800k) or
reimburse part of the proposed purchase price (up to a cap of $800k)
should Investore be required to carry out seismic strengthening on
selected buildings.
Given that the proposed purchase price is supported by an independent
valuation and consistent with recent transaction evidence for similar
properties, we consider the acquisition reflects arms-length purchase
price terms.

Executive Summary
Item Key Conclusions
Further
Information
Financial
Impact
If approved, the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is expected to increase
Investore’s distributable profit per share (“DPPS”) by approximately
3.0%
1
on a pro forma basis, including the effect of the Convertible Note.
Following settlement of both the Silverdale Centre and Convertible Note,
Investore’s LVR is projected to remain broadly unchanged at
approximately 40.2% on a pro forma basis, compared to 39.4% as at 31
March 2025 (pro forma post-BNL and WBB), or increase to 45.6% if the
Convertible Note issuance does not proceed. If the Convertible Note
issuance did proceed but the Silverdale Centre Acquisition did not, then
the LVR would reduce to 33.4%. In any case, Investore’s LVR remains
comfortably within the covenant limits of 60% under Investor’s banking
arrangements and the 65% limit required for its NZX-listed bonds.
We consider that the use of the Convertible Note to repay bank debt and
create balance sheet capacity for the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
represents a prudent capital management approach in the current
market environment, maintaining the LVR at appropriate levels. It
enables Investore to fund the Silverdale Centre Acquisition while
avoiding the dilution that would otherwise occur if funded through new
equity, especially where Investore’s shares are currently trading at a
discount to NTA. In addition to preserving value for existing
shareholders, the Convertible Note provides Investore with financial
flexibility as the notes may be redeemed for cash at maturity, potentially
using proceeds from non-core divestments over the next 3-4 years, or
convert to shares at a premium to Investore’s current share price.
Therefore, the Convertible Note provides relatively attractive
subordinated funding for the Silverdale Centre Acquisition while
managing refinancing risk and maintaining gearing discipline.
Section 6.2
Strategic Fit
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is aligned with Investore’s strategy of
investing in quality LFR properties, optimising its portfolio and delivering
targeted growth. It provides scale benefits, enhances tenant
diversification and increases Investore’s exposure to high-growth
regions, particularly Auckland.
We also note that the Silverdale Centre Acquisition was negotiated on
arm’s length terms by Investore’s independent directors, who undertook
a detailed review of the Silverdale Centre and concluded that it is an
appropriate fit for Investore’s existing LFR investment mandate.
Section 6.3
Operational
Impact
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition reduces Investore’s exposure to
Woolworths from 59% to 54% of Contract Rental (post-BNL acquisition
and WBB disposal), while also introducing new nationally recognised
tenants to the existing Investore portfolio, including The Warehouse
Group and Chemist Warehouse.
It also expands Investore’s geographic presence in a strong growth
corridor within the core Auckland region, increasing Investore’s Greater
Auckland exposure to 46% of Contract Rental.
Although the Silverdale Centre has a shorter WALT of 4.0 years, this
largely reflects the tenancy profile for The Warehouse Group. We
believe that the vacancy risk from this expiry is relatively low, based on
the growth outlook for the catchment area and the assumption that The
Warehouse Group would renew their lease (they have further rights of
renewal) or that the space would be re-tenanted (including from other
large discount retail stores).
Investore’s portfolio WALT is only modestly reduced from 6.7 years
(post-BNL and WBB) to 6.5 years on a pro forma basis, and is still

Executive Summary
Item Key Conclusions

Information
among the top three longest WALTs in the NZX-listed property sector.
Occupancy would also remain strong at 99.1%.
Silverdale Centre introduces 39 additional tenants, which will require
more active lease management and potentially higher capital
expenditure over time. However, these factors are balanced by
enhanced scale, slightly higher yields, more frequent rental uplifts, and
broader operational benefits. These considerations are also reflected in
the property's valuation.
Post-transaction, Silverdale Centre would represent ~10% of Investore’s
portfolio and be the single most valuable asset by a wide margin. While
this by itself does not necessarily represent an issue, the specialty
nature and size does mean that potential future liquidity for the asset
may be reduced. This could limit future financial flexibility, offset to some
degree by the balance of the portfolio largely representing more liquid
supermarket and hardware anchored LFR properties.
Taking all key elements of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition into account, we conclude that the
purchase consideration and associated terms are fair to Non-associated Shareholders. When taken
as a whole, the Silverdale Centre is consistent with a broader definition of LFR and provides a
number of strategic advantages, including increased scale, improved geographic diversification into a
high growth region of Greater Auckland, and enhanced tenant diversification.
1.4. Summary of our Assessment of the Silverdale Centre Letter for Investore
Shareholders
Our assessment of the fairness of the Silverdale Centre Letter for Investore shareholders is set out in
Section 7.0 and summarised below in Table 3.
Table 3: Summary of Conclusions Regarding the Fairness of the Silverdale Centre Letter
Item Key Conclusions
Further
Information
Silverdale
Centre Fees
The nature of the Silverdale Centre involves more management and
resource than a single tenanted (or small number of tenants) LFR
property. Consequently, the Silverdale Centre Letter seeks to fairly
compensate SIML for the additional costs required in managing the
property. The Silverdale Centre Letter, which has been negotiated
between Investore independent directors and SIML, only relates to
Silverdale Centre Fees.
Some of the Silverdale Centre Fees are recoverable from tenants with
the net non-recoverable fee of approximately $134k largely reflecting the
level of non-recoverable fees from major tenants.
The Silverdale Centre Fees reflect commercial arms-length fees for
properties of a similar nature, and the non-recoverable component is
reflected in both the Silverdale Centre independent valuation and our
financial impact analysis of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition.
Section 7.0
We conclude that the Silverdale Centre Letter is fair to Non-associated Shareholders. The Silverdale
Centre Fees agreed in the Silverdale Centre Letter simply reflect the increased cost of managing
Silverdale Centre on behalf of Investore, are consistent with commercial arms-length terms for more
management intensive properties and have been negotiated between the Investore independent
directors and SIML.

Investore shareholders is set out in Section 8.0 and summarised below in Table 4.

Item Key Conclusions
Further
Information
Expansion of
Investment
Mandate
Broadens Investore’s permitted investment scope to include CBR
properties, complementing the existing LFR strategy.
Enables participation in the resilient daily-needs retail segment, which
has demonstrated strong performance and lower e-commerce exposure,
particularly through economic downturns (e.g., COVID-19).
Significantly expands the investment market opportunity for Investore,
allowing access to well-located, non-discretionary anchored and service-
based retail centres.
Enhances tenant and income diversification, helping reduce reliance on
Woolworths (which comprised ~62% of Investore’s rent in FY25).
Aligns with strategic trends among peer REITs (e.g. HomeCo, Region
Group and Charter Hall Retail) in Australasia, which are increasingly
focused on CBR/daily-needs retail.
Expected to improve risk-adjusted returns through blended exposure to
long-WALT LFR assets and higher-yielding, more frequently reset CBR
assets.
Consistent with Investore’s existing strategy of owning stable, nationally
recognised tenant-anchored retail assets focused on everyday needs.
Section 8.1
Capital
Management
Provisions
Removes the fixed 50% LVR cap from the Management Agreement,
delegating LVR and hedging policy decisions solely to the Board of
Directors.
Aligns Investore’s governance approach with that of externally managed
REIT peers in New Zealand and Australia, where treasury policy
(including LVR and hedging) is a Board responsibility.
Provides greater flexibility to respond to market conditions and optimise
the capital structure as Investore pursues a broader investment
mandate.
Does not reduce investor protections, as the Board remains subject to
NZX disclosure requirements and banking covenants, and has
historically maintained a conservative gearing profile.
Section 8.2
Management
Fee
Provisions
Updates the flat $10,000 Building Management Fee per property (set in
2016) to better reflect the actual management effort for multi-tenant
properties (like Bay Central, Mt Wellington, and Carr Road shopping
centres).
Peer benchmarks indicate market-aligned fees are typically 1% to 3% of
gross rent, whereas Investore’s current fee structure sits materially
below this range.
The new structure aligns with market practice for externally managed
REITs and adjusts for the increased complexity and intensity of
Investore’s evolving portfolio.
The Building Management Fee for Bay Central, Mt Wellington, and Carr
Road shopping centres will be capped at the amounts recoverable from
tenants, limiting any material impact on distributable profit. For
properties acquired, developed or redeveloped after the Amendment
Date, the Building Management Fee will be the higher of $10,000 per
Section 8.3

Information
property (increasing with inflation) and the amount of building manager's
fees and centre management expenses included within operating and
marketing expense for the relevant properties.
The incremental cost to Investore of the change to the Building
Management Fee is only expected to be approximately $89k for the
existing portfolio (plus an additional $134k cost if the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition is approved).
Even after the change, Investore’s combined asset and building
management costs remain conservative relative to peer benchmarks.
The introduction of Additional Services Fees provides flexibility for
additional management resource services that are not contemplated by
the Management Agreement to be requested by Investore, and for the
scope and fees for such services to be agreed with SIML. This change
provides for Investore to obtain additional services which have
historically been agreed between Investore and SIML outside of the
Management Agreement, including historic services and fees associated
with Investore’s sustainability initiatives and capital management
projects.
Taking all key elements of the Management Agreement Amendments into account, we conclude that
the terms are fair to Non-associated Shareholders. They provide updates to other fee provisions to
be consistent with market-based terms and better cater for additional future portfolio investments
which may include CBR properties.
The changes to the Management Agreement in some respects represent commercial updates to the
original Management Agreement which is almost 10 years old, align the Management Agreement
with the investment scope of similar Australian REITs and provide the Investore Board with more
scope to make certain decisions which are arguably in the ordinary course of business.
Notwithstanding the changes, all key decisions remain subject to disciplines imposed by the NZX
Listing Rules, banking covenants and standard Companies Act requirements.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Scope of the Report Page | 11
2.0 Scope of the Report
2.1. Regulatory Requirements
2.1.1. NZX Listing Rule Requirements
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is subject to rule 5.2 of the NZX Listing Rules. Pursuant to the NZX
listing Rules, Investore may not enter into a Material Transaction with a Related Party (i.e., SPL)
unless that transaction is approved by an ordinary resolution of shareholders not associated with the
Related Party.
A “Material Transaction” for the purposes of the NZX Listing Rules includes the acquisition or
disposal of assets having an aggregate net value in excess of 10% of the average market
capitalisation of the Company or the where the gross cost for services provided by the related party
have a value greater than 1% of average market capitalisation of the Company. Under the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition, Investore would make a payment of $114 million for the Silverdale Centre,
representing approximately 26% of Investore’s average market capitalisation
2
.
The Silverdale Centre Letter and Management Agreement Amendments are also considered a
Material Transaction with a Related Party for the purpose of the NZX Listing Rules as Investore pays
for the services provided by SIML under the Management Agreement and the value of the
management fees exceeds 1% of Investore’s average market capitalisation. The Silverdale Centre
Letter or Management Agreement Amendments cannot become effective unless approved by an
ordinary resolution of shareholders not associated with SIML. Only one of the Silverdale Centre
Letter and the Management Agreement Amendments can become effective, with the Management
Agreement Amendments taking precedence if both are approved.
NZX Listing Rule 7.8.8 requires that the notice of special meeting to consider the ordinary resolutions
referred to above must be accompanied by an Appraisal Report, prepared by an independent adviser
to opine on the fairness of the transaction to shareholders not associated with the relevant related
party. This report is therefore addressed to the independent directors of Investore for the benefit of
Non-associated Shareholders.
The report should not be used for any other purpose and should be read in conjunction with the
declarations, qualifications and consents set out in Appendix 2.
2.1.2. Declarations
Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.10.2, we state that:
(i) In our opinion, the consideration and the terms and conditions of the proposed Silverdale
Centre Acquisition and Silverdale Centre Letter or the Management Agreement
Amendments are fair to Non-associated Shareholders. The grounds for these opinions are
set out in this report;
(ii) We believe that the shareholders entitled to vote on the resolutions in relation to the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition, Silverdale Centre Letter and the Management Agreement
Amendments will be provided with sufficient information to understand all relevant factors
and on which to make an informed decision. The two main sources of information are this
report and the Notice of Special Meeting;
(iii) We confirm that we have been provided with all of the information that we believe is
required for the purposes of preparing this report; and
(iv) The material assumptions on which our opinion has been based are clearly set out in the
body of this report.
2.2. Basis of Assessment and Evaluation

Based on the 20-day volume weighted average price of Investore shares traded on the NZX up to 4 September 2025.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Scope of the Report Page | 12
The content required to be included in the Appraisal Report pursuant to the NZX Listing Rules is set
out in rule 7.10.2. Among other things, the Appraisal Report must state whether or not the reporter
considers that the terms and conditions of each of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale
Centre Letter and the Management Agreement Amendments are “fair” to the Company’s
shareholders other than those shareholders (if any) that may be associated with the related parties to
the transaction. Although there is no statutory definition of “fair” or any specific guidance provided in
the NZX Listing Rules, our assessment of the fairness of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the
Silverdale Centre Letter and the Management Agreement Amendments is based on a consideration
of:
The consequences for the existing shareholders if the resolutions regarding the Silverdale
Centre Acquisition and the Silverdale Centre Letter or Management Agreement
Amendments are approved or not approved;
The consequences for existing shareholders if the resolution regarding the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition is not approved and the Management Agreement Amendments are approved;
and
The overall terms of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre Letter and the
Management Agreement Amendments.
Northington Partners has evaluated the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the Silverdale Centre Letter
and the Management Agreement Amendments by reviewing the following factors:
The assessed market value of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition relative to the consideration
being paid;
The impact of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition on Investore’s financial metrics such as LVR
levels and distributable profit per share;
Whether the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is broadly consistent with Investore’s investment
strategy mandate;
The impact of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition on operational factors including the fit with
Investore’s stated investment strategy, as well as the geographic spread, tenant weightings
and weighted average lease terms of the Investore portfolio;
The impact of the Silverdale Centre Letter or Management Agreement Amendments on
strategic and operational factors and the financial impact on Investore; and
Other considerations that may be necessary for shareholders to make an informed decision
in relation to the Silverdale Centre Acquisition and the Silverdale Centre Letter or
Management Agreement Amendments.

Overview of the Australasian Retail Property Sector Page | 13
3.0 Overview of the Australasian Retail Property Sector
Investore specialises in quality LFR properties – typically standalone buildings leased long-term to
national retailers, including supermarkets, hardware stores, general merchandise and health and
wellbeing. In New Zealand and Australia, the listed property sector includes a number of vehicles with
retail exposure, ranging from traditional shopping centre owners to specialised vehicles focusing on
either LFR or CBR centres.
A review of comparable listed-property vehicles (LPVs)
3
reveals three distinct strategic approaches
within retail:
Town-centre / daily-needs / CBR platforms that prioritise essential-service anchors and non-
discretionary spending;
Major-tenant LFR portfolios comprising big-box retailers (like large supermarkets, home
improvement or discount department stores) on long leases; and
Hybrid mixed-use precincts that integrate daily-needs anchors with discretionary mini-
majors, specialty retail and, increasingly, residential or office components.
To position Investore within this landscape, Table 5 summarises each peer’s investment strategy,
while Figure 1 maps their exposure across the retail-tenant spectrum, and Table 6 presents key
portfolio metrics for each retail peer.

Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Overview of the Australasian Retail Property Sector Page | 15
As shown in Table 6 above, the following observations can be made:
Australian LPVs are materially larger than their New Zealand peers, with an average
portfolio value of ~AU$4 billion versus ~NZ$1 billion in NZ.
Investore stands out with a WALT of 6.7 years, the longest among all retail-focused LPVs
listed in the table. In contrast, Australian peers like HomeCo, Region Group and Charter Hall
Retail show WALTs of 4.9-5.3 years, reflecting shorter lease profiles more typical of multi-
tenanted, convenience-based centres.
Occupancy levels are strong across the board, with Investore at 99.0%, ahead of both the
NZ and Australian averages.
Cap rates (WACR) average 7.1% in NZ and 5.7% in Australia, reflecting lower valuation
yields and higher pricing for Australian retail assets. This likely reflects the investor demand,
market outlook and interest rate profiles of the respective countries as well as the more
defensive non-discretionary nature of the Australian LPVs. Investore’s WACR of 6.3% sits
between the two country averages and is the lowest of the New Zealand retail portfolios,
consistent with its quality asset base but also reflecting the more defensive, non-
discretionary nature of the underlying tenants.
Investore’s LVR of 39.4% (as at 31 March 2025, post-BNL acquisition and WBB disposal)
sits above the levels reported by most of its peers.

4.0 Profile of Investore
4.1. Overview of the Company
Investore is New Zealand’s only listed property company with an investment strategy focused on the
LFR property sector. LFR properties are generally characterised by:
Limited number of specialty retail tenants (generally no more than 15) with the anchor tenant
occupying more than 50% of the net lettable area and contributing more than 50% of the rental
income. This ensures the majority of rental income is received from lease arrangements with
nationally recognised retailers.
The anchor tenant(s) net lettable area is usually more than 2,000 sqm, with specialty tenants
typically occupying more than 150 sqm, although in some limited cases this may be as small
as 60 sqm or less.
Physically, building improvements which are typically large, free-standing, “big-box” structures
built on concrete slab foundations. The building improvements are relatively modest and
therefore minimise lifecycle maintenance and capital expenditure requirements and are well
serviced by convenient vehicle carparking on-site.
The potential for some properties to be converted into LFR through asset management
activities, such as development and redevelopment initiatives, change of use and leasing.
Alternatively, the property is located adjacent or adjoining to existing assets which provides
the opportunity for future redevelopment and improved returns to existing LFR properties.
Property uses which include (but are not limited to) grocery, bulky goods retailing, hardware,
general merchandise and convenience retailing.
Investore was incorporated in October 2015 to function as SPL’s investment vehicle for LFR properties.
Investore demerged from SPL on 12 July 2016, simultaneously undertaking an IPO on the NZX where
it raised $185 million in new capital. Prior to the IPO, Investore held 25 properties consisting of 6
properties which had been transferred from SPL and 19 properties directly acquired from Antipodean
Supermarkets Limited and Antipodean Properties Limited. As part of the transaction, the Company
used the IPO proceeds to partly fund the acquisition of an additional 14 properties from ASX-listed
Shopping Centres Australasia (the “SCA Properties”) in July and September 2016.
Investore is externally managed by SIML, the real estate investment management arm of the stapled
Stride Property Group. At the time of listing Investore through the demerger from SPL, SPL agreed that
while SIML continued to manage Investore, SPL would (except in limited circumstances) hold its
exposure in LFR properties through its shareholding in Investore.
4.2. Property Portfolio
Investore’s current portfolio comprises 43 properties with an aggregate value of ~$1 billion (post-
acquisition of BNL in June 2025 and disposal of WBB in September 2025). Key portfolio metrics are
summarised in Table 7 below:

Investore's portfolio consists of LFR properties with tenants that attract regular visitation, including
supermarkets, hardware stores, general merchandise and health & wellbeing.
Most of the properties owned (accounting for 59% of C ontract Rental) are tenanted by Woolworths
supermarkets that are leased/operated by General Distributors Limited. Other major tenants include
Bunnings, Mitre 10, Briscoes Group (Briscoes and Rebel Sport) and Foodstuffs (operator of New World
and Pak'nSave).

Woolworths leases include a turnover rent component whereby additional rent is payable when store
sales exceed a specified threshold. For some leases, turnover rent is crystallised to base rent at each
rent review, with base rent increasing by the average turnover rent paid over the prior three years.
When turnover rent is crystallised to base rent, the turnover threshold resets ( typically at a higher level).
As shown in Figure 4, the portfolio is well diversified geographically with approximately 39% of the
properties (by Contract Rental) located in Greater Auckland. Figure 5 shows the lease expiry profile for
leases in place as at 31 March 2025. As would be expected with Investore’s tenants and the LFR focus,
the profile is heavily skewed to long-dated arrangements, with the majority of leases expiring in 8 to 10
years.

Dividends per share (cents) 7.90 7.20 6.50
Sources: Investore annual reports and NZX announcements. Totals may not sum due to rounding.
The main features of Investore’s historic financial performance can be summarised as follows:
Modest rental growth: Net rental income has grown 1-2%, driven by structured reviews and
increase in Woolworths turnover rent. However, this has also been impacted by asset
recycling within Investore’s investment property portfolio (sale of generally higher yielding non-
core properties for typically lower yielding newer properties with stronger growth outlooks);
Negative underlying earnings growth: DPPS and AFFO per share growth has been elusive
in recent years. Declines in FY25 relate primarily to the impact of the removal of tax
depreciation on commercial buildings, increasing interest costs and the additional shares from
Investore’s dividend reinvestment plan, which have collectively meant that underlying DPPS
has declined ~3% over the period (excluding the impact of the tax change in FY25).
Statutory earnings volatility from revaluations: Heavy property devaluations produced a
$150 million loss in FY23 and a $67 million loss in FY24, but a $12 million gain lifted FY25 to a
$38 million profit;
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Profile of Investore Page | 21
Interest-rate pressure easing: Net finance cost rose in FY24 as rates reset, but proactive
hedging and refinancing trimmed the weighted average cost of debt to 4.1% in FY25 on lower
borrowings (4.3% in FY24; 4.0% in FY23);
Dividend distributions moderated: Cash DPS stepped down from 7.90c (FY23) to 7.20c
(FY24) and 6.50c per share (FY25). This decline reflects lower DPPS as described above
(including the impact of tax depreciation changes) but also a much lower distribution payout in
FY25 (~86% of DPPS) vs FY23 (~94%).

Portfolio value stabilising: investment portfolio value declined from $1.033 billion (FY23) to
$972 million (FY24) amid cap-rate expansion, then steadied at $965 million in FY25 as modest
valuation gains and asset recycling offset disposals;
Prudent gearing: Loan-to-value ratio peaked at 40.8% (FY24) before easing to 38.5%
(FY25), comfortably within the current 60% banking LVR covenant;
Net tangible assets trend: Net tangible assets per share fell from $1.84 to $1.57 between
FY23 and FY24, but increased to $1.60 as at 31 Mar 25, signalling the first positive inflection
since FY22;
Funding mix strengthened: $225 million of bank facilities refinanced as green loans in FY25;
~74% of debt is now hedged/fixed, lengthening duration and reducing rate risk.

5.1. Overview of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
5.1.1. Transaction Summary and Terms
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition involves the purchase of the Silverdale Centre under the following
key terms:
Purchase Price: $114 million plus GST (if any);
Deposit: $5.7 million payable once unconditional;
Settlement Date: 31 October 2025; and
Seismic Provision: SPL (the vendor) has agreed to either undertake certain seismic works
(capped at $800k) or reimburse part of the proposed purchase price (capped at $800k), if
Investore is required to undertake seismic strengthening on selected buildings to achieve 67%
NBS. Investore would be able to request this after one year from the date of settlement.
The sale and purchase agreement in relation to the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is conditional upon
approval of Investore’s shareholders by 31 October 2025 (Investore Board’s approval is expected to be
satisfied within 10 working days of the execution date).
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is expected to be funded via bank debt under Investore’s facilities
and the Convertible Note. SPL has elected not to participate in the Convertible Note. Indicative key
terms of the Convertible Note are as follows:
Note size: up to $62.5 million;
Interest rate: fixed rate to be determined by Investore, in conjunction with the joint lead
managers, upon completion of the bookbuild process;
Indicative issue date: 26 September 2025;
Term/Conversion Date: 4 years / September 2029;
Conversion: automatic conversion on maturity into Investore shares, unless a cash election is
made (option as described below). The conversion price will be the lesser of $1.56 and a 2%
discount to the market price at conversion date (determined based on VWAP over last 20
trading days);
Cash Election Option: at its discretion, Investore may opt, in part or whole, to pay a cash
amount equal to the market price instead of converting.
Key acquisition metrics are detailed in Table 11 below.
Table 11: Silverdale Centre – Key Acquisition Metrics
Silverdale Centre (22,990 sqm; 39 tenants

Silverdale Centre will represent Investore’s largest asset by area and value.
The property has been inspected by Investore and reviewed from legal, technical and environmental
aspects as part of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition. These reviews noted that the property is generally

A brief description of Silverdale Centre is provided below.
5.1.2. Property Description and Key Attributes
Silverdale Centre is a retail centre located at 61 Silverdale Street, Silverdale, Auckland (32km north of
Auckland’s CBD). It was developed in 2012 as an open-air retail centre serving the growing suburbs of
Silverdale, Millwater and the Hibiscus Coast. The centre comprises 22,990 sqm net lettable area
spread across multiple single-level buildings and 980 carparks on a 7.05-hectare freehold site.

Figure 8 highlights that while Silverdale Centre’s anchor tenants, The Warehouse (including
Warehouse Stationery) and Woolworths, occupy 52 % of the NLA, they only contribute 35 % of the rental
income. Seven mini-major tenancies, with NLA of at least 500sqm (Noel Leeming, Number 1 Shoes,
Super Cheap Auto, Bed Bath & Beyond, North Beach, Postie Plus and Chemist Warehouse), represent
23% of overall NLA and rental income. Furthermore, 6 of the remaining 26 specialty tenants

occupy
between 400 and 500 sqm of NLA (considered as LFR by JLL), representing a total of 11% of overall
NLA and 15% of rental income.

While Silverdale Centre serves as a convenient retail hub for the immediate catchment, it faces existing
competition. Directly across the road is Silverdale Mall, anchored by Farmers together with over 30
specialty retailers, with a Briscoes also located ~100 metres away. These neighbouring centres add
competitive pressure but also contribute to the overall retail critical mass in the area. Additional LFR
offerings are located nearby, including a cluster approximately 2km to the southwest comprising Pak’n
Save, Bunnings, and Animates; Coast Plaza in Whangaparāoa (8km to the southeast), anchored by
Woolworths and Mitre10; and a further Woolworths and New World in Ōrewa, around 5km to the north.
Notwithstanding this competition, we consider that the associated risk is appropriately reflected in JLL’s
market valuation, which is underpinned by the property’s strategic location, strong amenity and
underlying land value.
5.2. Overview of the Silverdale Centre Letter
The Silverdale Centre Letter between SIML and Investore sets out the Silverdale Centre Fees and
provides for SIML’s consent to the acquisition, to the extent such consent is required under the
Constitution. A copy of the Silverdale Centre Letter is available on Investore’s website and is detailed in
the Notice of Special Meeting.
The Silverdale Centre Fees are intended to compensate SIML for the additional work required in
managing the Silverdale Centre on behalf of Investore. The Silverdale Centre Letter therefore
represents a variation to the Management Agreement but only in respect of the Silverdale Centre (not
any other property).
We note that the Silverdale Centre Letter should be regarded as a fallback mechanism to ensure SIML
is fairly compensated for the additional costs of managing the property, in the event shareholders
approve the Silverdale Centre Acquisition but do not support the broader Management Agreement
Amendments (detailed below). Importantly, the Silverdale Centre Fees will be the same under the
amended Management Agreement or the Silverdale Centre Letter.
5.3. Overview of the Proposed Management Agreement Amendments
Investore’s Board (with SIML’s agreement) is proposing to amend the Management Agreement with
SIML in three key aspects: (i) broadening Investore’s investment mandate to include CBR assets, (ii)
change to capital management and Board-Governed treasury policy, and (iii) an update of the
management fee structure. The amendments also include certain other immaterial or conforming
changes.

According to JLL’s valuation report, Non/Low-Discretionary income categories include food and beverage, mobiles phones and
some retail services, whereas High-Discretionary include apparel, jewellery and homeware.

5.3.1. Expansion of the Investment Mandate
Investore’s current investment mandate, as set out in the Management Agreement, is focused primarily
on LFR properties – typically large, standalone, single-floor retail stores where more than 50% are
occupied by a single major tenant or a limited number of major tenants.
The proposed amendment seeks to expand this mandate to capture investment in property that
provides a focus on CBR. These properties are typically anchored by nationally recognised retail
companies, and uses are primarily retail or associated everyday services and can include, but are not
limited to, grocery, bulky goods retailing, factory outlet, convenience retailing, trade-based retail,
general merchandise, health and community services, and ancillary office.
In practical terms, this change provides greater scope for Investore to acquire a broader range of major
tenant-anchored centres in the future, which have features that may not strictly fit all of the
Management Agreement’s original LFR definition. The mandate expansion would formally broaden the
scope of permissible investments, while retaining a clear focus on quality daily needs-based retail
properties. This is not a shift into unrelated asset classes, but rather a widening within the retail domain
to capture a subset that is closely aligned to its existing portfolio (i.e. everyday needs retail).
The amendments also provide a standing consent of SIML, as manager to the Permitted Business
Activities under Investore’s constitution, including anything which falls within the updated investment
mandate.
5.3.2. Change to Capital Management Provisions
In conjunction with the proposed investment mandate expansion, Investore plans to remove the fixed
50% LVR cap embedded in the Management Agreement. Instead, the revised agreement will provide
greater scope for the Investore Board to establish and adjust LVR and hedging policies as part of its
broader governance responsibilities.
5.3.3. Change to Management Fee Provisions
The third set of amendments involves updating the fee framework in the Management Agreement,
specifically an increase to building management fees and the introduction of additional services.
Currently, SIML receives:
A Base Management Fee calculated as: 0.55% per annum of the Gross Asset Value (“GAV”)
of Investore up to NZ$750 million, and 0.45% p.a. of GAV in excess of that (by FY25 with
~$1.0 billion assets, effectively a blended ~0.52% fee);
A Performance Fee equal to 10% of shareholder returns above the NZX Property index, with a
cap;
A Building Management Fee of $10,000 per year in respect of each property held by
Investore, calculated on a daily basis; and
Other fees, such as leasing fees for securing tenants, property disposal fees and development
fees for projects.
It is proposed that the current flat Building Management Fee of $10,000 per property per annum be
replaced with a dual-component fee structure. Under this structure, the Company will pay to the
Manager a Building Management Fee for each property owned or held by Investore (excluding Bay
Central, Mt Wellington, and Carr Road, which are existing shopping centres as at the Amendment
Date) during all or part of the relevant year, calculated as the greater of:
All building manager's fees and centre management expenses (plus GST, if applicable)
included within operating and marketing expenses for the relevant properties, but only in
respect of properties acquired, developed or redeveloped by Investore after the Amendment
Date
11
; and
11
We note that this will not apply to developments or redevelopments of properties held at the Amendment Date that have similar
tenants, and similar number of tenancies post the development or redevelopment.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Overview of the Material Transactions with a Related Party Page | 27
$10,000 per property per annum (plus GST), indexed annually to CPI.
In addition, for Bay Central, Mt Wellington, and Carr Road (the existing shopping centres owned as at
the Amendment Date), the Building Management Fee will be calculated as all building manager’s fees
and centre management expenses (plus GST, if applicable) for those existing shopping centres
recovered through operating and marketing expenses.
These changes are intended to better reflect the actual cost and complexity of managing each property,
particularly multi-tenant centres like Bay Central, Mt Wellington and Carr Road shopping centres, and
to align more closely with market practice.
In addition, the Management Agreement does not currently provide flexibility for SIML to deliver
services outside its existing scope that require intensive management resources (“Additional
Services”). It is therefore proposed that the scope and fees for Additional Services be agreed where
Investore requests them and the Manager consents to provide them.

As per JLL’s independent valuation, assuming completion of certain seismic upgrade works.
JLL has assessed the market value of Silverdale Centre, using the following valuation approaches:
Direct capitalisation of market rent with adjustments for contract rent; and
Discounted cash flows.
JLL has applied capitalisation rates consistent with those applied to similar properties owned by
Investore, after adjusting for factors such as age, occupancy, tenant quality and the lease profile of the
property (including the rent review mechanism). Furthermore, the capitalisation rates applied by JLL are
in line with the capitalisation and discount rates implied from recent market transactions for similar
properties. Table 13 provides a summary of certain price metrics for broadly comparable properties

Given the Silverdale Centre Acquisition has been negotiated on arms-length terms between Investore
and SPL, and the property is being purchased at a price in line with its independent market valuation,
we consider the proposed acquisition terms are fair to Non-associated Shareholders.
6.2. Financial Implications of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition
We have estimated the pro-forma impact of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition on Investore’s
distributable profit and LVR as summarised in Table 15, based on the following assumptions:
The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is assumed to settle on 31 October 2025, contributing five
months of earnings in FY26. Our analysis is based on a pro forma assessment of the first full
12 months following acquisition.
The acquisition cost of $114 million is assumed to be funded through a combination of: $62.5
million via the Convertible Note, and the balance drawn from a new $100 million bank facility.
The net proceeds from the Convertible Note are expected to be received on or around 26
September 2025, prior to completion of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition.
The Convertible Note is assumed to carry the indicative terms outlined in Section 5.1.1 and
interest consistent with market rates for similar instruments. When combined with the new
incremental bank debt, it is assumed to result in an estimated weighted average cost of
funding of 5.0-5.5%, based on current market conditions. For comparison, Investore’s NZX-
listed bonds are currently yielding: 4.10% (25 February 2027 maturity) and 4.46% (31 August
2027 maturity) as at 4 September 2025. The actual cost of funding may vary depending on
interest rate markets, swap rates, and hedging arrangements at the time of settlement.
Additional management fees of approximately $0.5 million are assumed to apply following the
acquisition, based on an asset management fee of 0.45% (as per the SIML management
agreement, applicable once the portfolio exceeds $750 million in value).
Building Management Fees and corresponding recoveries have been incorporated within
Silverdale Centre’s net profit forecasts. We note a shortfall of approximately 54% in recoveries
(net non-recoverable fee of approximately $134k), which is partly attributable to the fact that
some leases are structured as semi-gross.
One-off acquisition and financing costs associated with the Silverdale Centre Acquisition have
been excluded from the summary earnings and distributable profit analysis.

Appropriate allowances for tax depreciation on building improvements and deferred tax

Source: Investore and Northington Partners analysis.
The estimated key financial impacts of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, assessed on a pro-forma
basis, are as follows:
Based on the incremental earnings contribution (including the incremental management fees)
for the first year of ownership, the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, together with Convertible
Note and bank debt funding, is projected to increase Investore’s FY26 pro forma DPPS by
approximately 3.0%.
13
The actual level of earnings and dividend accretion may vary depending on the effective cost
of funding, and any other changes in Investore’s capital structure or property portfolio,
including further acquisitions or divestments.
Investore’s LVR is projected to remain broadly unchanged at approximately 40.2% on a pro
forma basis, following settlement of both the Silverdale Centre Acquisition and the Convertible
Note, or increase to 45.6% if the Convertible Note issuance does not proceed. This is above
the Board’s stated long-term LVR policy of 30%-40%, but well within the bank covenant limit
of 60%, thereby preserving balance sheet resilience.
Furthermore, the potential divestment of further non-core, regionally located assets (totalling
$212 million in value as at 31 March 2025) is expected to provide additional debt reduction
capacity. Assuming non-core property sales of approximately $30 million and settlement of
the Convertible Note, Investore’s LVR would be reduced to 38.5%, in line with the level prior
to BNL, WBB and the Silverdale Centre Acquisition (as at 31 March 2025).
We consider that the use of a Convertible Note appears to be a prudent capital management approach
in the current market environment. It enables Investore to fund the Silverdale Centre Acquisition without
the need for an equity raising at current share price levels, which are trading at a discount to NTA. In
addition to preserving value for existing shareholders, the note structure provides flexibility as it can be
redeemed for cash potentially using proceeds from non-core divestments over the next 3-4 years,
helping to manage refinancing risk and maintain gearing discipline.
12
LVR based on investment properties value for banking purposes (Silverdale Centre independently valued at $114 million) and
excluding the Convertible Note as subordinated and treated as equity.
13
DPPS accretion based on the incremental DPPS generated from the Silverdale Centre Acquisition including the impact of
Convertible Note and transaction-related debt. DPPS generated from the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is calculated on a pro-forma
12-month ownership basis based on the assumptions described, but excludes one-off transaction and Convertible Note related costs.
The actual level of earnings will vary depending on the actual settlement date, final Convertible Note terms and the incremental cost
of debt at settlement.

6.3. Strategic Fit
Investore’s investment mandate is prescribed in Investore’s constitution and management agreement
with SIML. Both the Manager and Investore’s independent directors consider the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition to be aligned with Investore’s investment strategy. Table 16 highlights key aspects of the
Silverdale Centre relative to Investore’s current investment mandate criteria.

While the Silverdale Centre meets the majority of Investore’s current LFR investment criteria, it only
achieves partial alignment with some of the elements. However, taken as a whole, we consider that the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition meets the mandate based on the following observations:
If the definition of anchor tenants was broadened to consider other major nationally
recognised retailers or service providers with at least 500 sqm of NLA (mini-major tenancies),
Silverdale Centre would satisfy the 50% rental income threshold. Such tenants, which
represent a total of 23% of both overall NLA and rental income, include Chemist Warehouse,
Noel Leeming, Number 1 Shoes, Super Cheap Auto, Bed Bath & Beyond, North Beach and
Postie Plus;
Furthermore, 6 of the remaining 26 specialty tenants occupy between 400 and 500 sqm of
NLA, representing a total of 11% of overall NLA and 15% of rental income;
When considered more broadly within the property market, the tenants above would often be
included within the definition of LFR and indeed most commercial real estate firms consider
Silverdale Centre to be LFR (e.g. CBRE, Colliers and JLL);
Investore’s LFR definition generally refers to large, free-standing buildings anchored by major
retailers, allowing flexibility for assets that broadly fit its focus on everyday needs retail;
International LFR targeted property investment vehicles would likely categorise these mini-
major tenancies as LFR (for example, HomeCo in Australia); and
The addition of The Warehouse and the other aforementioned national tenants provides
Investore with greater diversification of retail categories while not materially exposing it to
fashion or apparel retail.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Assessment of the Proposed Silverdale Centre Acquisition Page | 32
We therefore believe that the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is consistent with Investore’s strategy to
invest in LFR property, especially when considered from a portfolio perspective. It contributes scale,
tenant diversification and geographic benefits (described in Section 6.4).
We also note that due to the relationship between Investore and SPL, the management of perceived
and actual conflicts of interest is an integral feature of Investore’s governance practices. Throughout
the negotiation of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, the standing conflicts protocols of SIML, as
manager of Investore, were applied in negotiating the transaction with SPL.
Investore implemented the following measures in order to ensure a thoroughly independent process:
The independent directors of Investore, being Mike Allen, Gr áinne Troute and Adrian Walker,
managed the negotiation of the sale and purchase agreement with SPL and had significant
involvement in the due diligence process of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition;
An independent valuation of Silverdale Centre was undertaken by JLL for the benefit of
Investore. The Purchase Price of $114 million is equivalent to the assessed market valuation;
Consistent with the NZX Listing Rules, the property valuer (JLL) was approved as being
independent by NZX;
Separate legal advisers were appointed for each of Investore and SPL, with the independent
directors of Investore having their own legal counsel that was different from Investore;
The standing conflicts protocols between Investore and SPL were adhered to in negotiating
the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, in addition to separate transaction specific conflict protocols
(and which were independently reviewed); and
The independent directors, after thorough review, concluded that the Silverdale Centre
Acquisition was a positive fit with Investore’s strategy and was value accretive to
shareholders.

As illustrated in Table 17, the Silverdale Centre Acquisition:
Enhances portfolio scale, increasing Investore’s investment property portfolio by approximately
12% to ~$1.1 billion on a pro forma basis. This scale expansion is expected to support a
reduction in management and administration costs as a percentage of total assets (i.e. a lower
management expense ratio).
Improves tenant diversification, reducing Investore’s reliance on General Distributors
(Woolworths) and introducing new national retailers such as The Warehouse Group and
Chemist Warehouse. On a pro-forma basis, exposure to Woolworths is reduced from 59% to
54% of Contract Rental, while Bunnings reduces from 21% to 18%. Correspondingly, other
tenants (including LFR and specialty retailers) grow from 21% to 28%.
Has minimal impact on portfolio valuation metrics, with limited change to the overall
capitalisation rate and yield of the portfolio.
Maintains high occupancy levels, with Silverdale Centre fully leased. As a result, Investore’s
post-acquisition portfolio occupancy remains stable at 99.1%.
Slightly reduces portfolio WALT, by approximately three months. However, we note that
Silverdale Centre’s lower WALT largely reflects the tenancy profile for The Warehouse. We
consider that the vacancy risk from this expiry as relatively low, based on the growth outlook
for catchment area and the assumption that The Warehouse would renew their lease (they
have a further 6-year right of renewal, plus four additional 3- year rights of renewal) or that the
space would be re-tenanted (including from other large discount retail stores). Notwithstanding
the reduction in WALT post the Silverdale Centre Acquisition, Investore’s WALT would remain
among the top three longest in the NZX-listed property sector.
Increases exposure to Auckland, a higher-growth region, with pro-forma exposure rising from
approximately 39% (post BNL and WBB) to 46% of gross contracted rent. Furthermore, the
North Auckland Future Urban Zone (covering Silverdale, Wainui East and Dairy Flat) has been
identified as one of Auckland’s primary growth regions over the next 25 years
14
.
6.5. Summary of our Assessment
We consider the terms and conditions of the Silverdale Centre Acquisition to be fair for Non-associated
Shareholders. This view reflects the following key considerations:
Strategic Fit: The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is consistent with Investore’s strategy to
acquire quality LFR assets through SIML’s market coverage. While Silverdale Centre
represents a different mix of LFR tenants and has a shorter WALT compared to most of the
existing portfolio properties, we consider this retail centre to be broadly consistent with
Investore’s definition of LFR property.
Acquisition Terms: The purchase price of $114 million is supported by the independent
valuation provided by JLL, which reflects recent transaction evidence and JLL’s views of
renewed and strong demand for this type of asset. The agreed price reflects appropriate
adjustments for location, tenant covenant strength, and lease terms, and results in portfolio
valuation metrics that are in line with Investore’s existing portfolio.

Immediate Financial Impact: The Silverdale Centre Acquisition is expected to result in an
increase in FY26 DPPS. The Convertible Note will provide the debt headroom required to
settle the Silverdale Centre Acquisition. On a pro-forma basis, Investore’s post-transaction
LVR is expected to be approximately 40.2%, slightly above the Board’s stated LVR policy of
30%-40%, but comfortably within the bank covenant limit of 60%.
Operational Impact: The Silverdale Centre Acquisition diversifies Investore’s tenant base by
reducing exposure to Woolworths and introducing new national tenants such as The
Warehouse Group and Chemist Warehouse. It also increases Investore’s geographic
exposure to the higher-growth Auckland region.
Other considerations: post-transaction, Silverdale Centre would be Investore’s single largest
asset by value, representing ~10% of the portfolio and more than double the value of
Investore’s 2
nd
highest value property (Bunnings Westgate). Investore’s existing portfolio also
broadly comprises assets with a higher level of secondary market sale liquidity, especially for
supermarket and hardware LFR properties. The specialty nature and reduced buyer audience
for Silverdale Centre (typically global and domestic institutional investors) might limit how
quickly and easily the property could be sold if Investore determined to sell Silverdale Centre
in the future. While liquidity might not be an important consideration now, it could impact on
Investore’s financial flexibility in the future.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Assessment of the Silverdale Centre Letter Page | 35
7.0 Assessment of the Silverdale Centre Letter
The Silverdale Centre Letter provides for SIML to be fairly compensated for the additional work required
to manage the Silverdale Centre which, as a multi-tenanted property (39 tenants), demands
significantly more management resource than a single-tenanted (or small number of tenants) LFR
property. Under the Silverdale Centre Letter terms, SIML would be paid all building management fees
and centre management expenses. The proposed Silverdale Centre Fees are intended to reflect these
additional costs, consistent with how the property is currently managed.
A portion of the Silverdale Centre Fees will be recoverable from tenants (approximately $115k), with the
net non-recoverable component of approximately $134k largely reflecting non-recoverable costs
associated with major tenants. The fees (and non-recoverable amounts from certain tenancies) are
consistent with commercial, arm’s-length fees charged for comparable properties and are already
incorporated in both the independent valuation of the Silverdale Centre and our earnings and financial
impact analysis of the acquisition (see Section 6.2).
As noted in our review of the Management Agreement Amendments (Section 8.3), the current building
management fee structure provides only a flat fee of $10k per property per annum. In the case of
Silverdale Centre, this would equate to ~0.1% of gross income, which materially understates the
complexity and cost of managing a large, multi-tenanted retail centre. By comparison, externally
managed REITs in New Zealand and Australia typically charge between 1% and 3% of gross rent,
generally recoverable through tenant outgoings.
Accordingly, we consider the Silverdale Centre Fees to be appropriate, commercially reasonable, and
consistent with market practice.
Investore Property Limited – Independent Appraisal Report
Assessment of the Proposed Management Agreement Amendments
Page | 36
8.0 Assessment of the Proposed Management Agreement
Amendments
8.1. Expansion of Investment Mandate
As described in Section 5.2 above, the proposed amendment to the Management Agreement seeks to
explicitly broaden Investore’s permitted investment scope to include CBR properties – retail assets
such as neighbourhood and subregional centres focused on non-discretionary, everyday needs.
The expansion reflects a recognition that convenience/daily-needs retail is a resilient and attractive
segment that complements Investore’s existing LFR strategy. In our assessment, the following factors
support the rationale for expanding the mandate:
Resilience of Daily-Needs Retail: CBR assets (e.g. those anchored by supermarkets,
essential services and daily-needs retail) have demonstrated strong and consistent
performance through economic cycles, including during the COVID-19 pandemic. Their
resilience stems from their focus on low/non-discretionary spending, as well as lower exposure
to e-commerce disruption compared to discretionary or fashion retail. By permitting investment
in CBR properties, Investore can participate in this defensively positioned segment,
complementing its existing LFR strategy. We note that this reflects a broader convergence
trend in the Australasian market, where listed REITs are moving towards more flexible,
diversified retail mandates. As discussed in Section 3.0, peers such as Region Group, Charter
Hall Retail, and HomeCo Daily Needs have repositioned to prioritise CBR assets and have
generated solid performance as a result. The proposed mandate expansion would align
Investore with its Australian peers.
Increased Acquisition Opportunity Set: Investore’s current LFR-focused mandate narrows
the pool of potential acquisitions. Expanding into CBR would significantly broaden the range of
qualifying assets, enabling the Company to pursue opportunities that may not strictly meet the
current LFR definition. This increased flexibility improves Investore’s ability to respond to
market conditions and capital deployment opportunities.
Diversification and Risk Management: Including multi-tenant CBR assets in the portfolio
would reduce tenant concentration risk and enhance income diversification (noting that
Woolworths, while declining as a proportion, still represented approximately 62% of Investore’s
gross rental income in FY25). Furthermore, the combination of LFR and CBR provides
complementary benefits: LFR assets typically deliver long leases and low management
intensity, while CBR assets provide slightly higher yields, more frequent lease resets, and
broader tenant diversity. For example, specialty tenant leases within CBR assets can have
higher annual rental growth (3-4% fixed or CPI-linked increases) and offer the ability to reset
rents more frequently, whereas a 15-year LFR lease might be flat or have lower growth for
long periods. Thus, adding CBR could increase Investore’s organic rental growth rate over
time. Meanwhile, the long lease terms of major LFR tenants continue to provide stable income.
This blended approach mirrors the successful strategies of Australasian peers, which combine
long-WALT LFR with CBR assets.
Strategic Consistency: Although the mandate expansion marks a formal change, in
substance it is consistent with Investore’s core strategy: to invest in retail properties that
provide stable, long-term income from strong tenants, particularly focusing on non-
discretionary retail. Typical CBR assets fit this description: they are anchored by the same
types of LFR tenants (supermarkets and other large format stores) that Investore already
holds, and the supporting tenants are largely service and convenience retailers which
complement the anchors. Moreover, the managerial skill set required (understanding retail
tenant requirements, leasing, property operations) is well within SIML’s capabilities. In short,
the expansion is a natural extension rather than a departure from what shareholders have
invested in.
In addition, as shown in Figure 10 below, while LFR supermarkets and hardware stores have
historically exhibited lower volatility, the “Other Retail” category – which includes CBR – has delivered
stronger cumulative sales growth over the long term.

Figure 10: New Zealand Retail Turnover ( 2015Q2 – 2025Q1)
Source: Stats NZ. LFR includes sales from: “Supermarket and grocery stores” and “ Hardware, building and garden supplies”
(categories that make up the majority of Investore’s portfolio). Other Retail includes sales from: “Department stores”, “Specialised
food retailing (excluding liquor)”, “Liquor retailing”, “Food and beverage services”, “Pharmaceutical and other store-based retailing”,
“Furniture, floor coverings, houseware and textile goods retailing”, “Recreational goods retailing”, “Clothing, footwear and personal
accessory retailing” and “Electrical and electronic goods retailing”. Seasonally adjusted data. Indexed to 100, deflated, as at
September 2010 quarter prices.
The post-COVID rebound and sustained outperformance of “Other Retail” suggests that a blended
strategy incorporating CBR may enhance Investore’s overall return profile. CBR assets also tend to be
less volatile than fashion or discretionary segments, given their anchor tenancy profile and focus on
essential services. As such, while the mandate expansion introduces some additional variation, it does
so with a view to growth and resilience. The inclusion of quality CBR properties is therefore not
expected to materially increase portfolio risk and may contribute to improved risk-adjusted returns.
In our view, the proposed expansion of Investore’s investment mandate is a fair extension of its LFR
strategy. It enhances strategic flexibility, unlocks access to a broader set of resilient retail assets, and
supports long-term value creation. The expansion is well aligned with sector trends and peer
positioning and does not introduce material risks or shift Investore into unrelated asset classes.
Accordingly, we view the proposed Management Agreement mandate changes as fair to Non-
associated Shareholders.
8.2. Amendment to Capital Management Provisions
In conjunction with the proposed investment mandate expansion, Investore intends to amend the
capital management provisions in the Management Agreement. Specifically, the existing clause
prescribing a fixed Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR) limit of 50% (or such lower amount set by the Board and
Manager) is proposed to be removed. Under the revised agreement, the Loan-to-Value (LVR) and
Hedging Policies will be determined solely by the Board of Directors.
In our view, this change increases flexibility for the Company’s capital structure and brings Investore’s
governance settings into closer alignment with common practice among listed externally-managed
REITs in both New Zealand and Australia, where gearing parameters are typically set at the Board
level, not fixed within management agreements. We note that the Board remains accountable to
shareholders and subject to NZX continuous disclosure obligations, and therefore any material changes
to gearing policy would be expected to be disclosed appropriately.
The removal of fixed gearing constraints within the Management Agreement provides Investore with
greater responsiveness to market conditions and the ability to optimise its capital structure over time,
particularly as it expands into more diversified retail assets. However, this flexibility does not equate to
an open-ended increase in risk, given the Board’s oversight and the Company’s historic track record of
financial leverage.

Assessment of the Proposed Management Agreement Amendments

Accordingly, we consider the proposed changes to capital management provisions to be reasonable for
Non-associated Shareholders.
8.3. Amendment to Management Fee Provisions
The third main proposed amendment to the existing Management Agreement is to the Building
Management Fee and the introduction of fees for Additional Services.
The Building Management Fee is a flat fee of $10,000 per year, in respect of each property held by
Investore, to cover property management activities such as coordinating maintenance and tenant
liaison.
We note that this fee structure was set at IPO (in 2016) when Investore’s portfolio was mostly single-
tenant Countdown/Woolworths supermarkets (i.e. low-intensity management assets). Over time, as
Investore acquired multi-tenant properties (like Bay Central and Mt Wellington shopping centres in
2019, and Carr Road shopping centre in 2021), the $10,000 per property fee has become misaligned
with both the actual management effort required and prevailing market practice.
In contrast, externally managed REITs in New Zealand and Australia typically charge between 1% and
3% of gross rent, recoverable via tenant outgoings. As shown in Figure 11, Investore’s implied fee of
~0.6% across Investore’s entire portfolio is therefore well below market benchmarks, and the proposed
amendment seeks to bring the fee structure more in line with these standards.
Figure 11: Building/Property Management Fee charged by externally-managed REITS in Australasia (as a %
of gross rent)
Source: Latest Annual Reports Reports of each company. Investore’s % based on $446k building management fee expense over
$76.1m gross rental income in FY25.
We have also compared Investore’s combined asset management and building management fees (as a
percentage of total assets) to those of comparable externally managed REITs. As shown in Figure 12
below, Investore’s total asset and building management cost remains below the typical range observed
across its peers and other externally managed LPVs.

Assets)
Source: Latest Annual Reports of each company. Ratios calculated based on (Asset Management Fee + Performance Fee +
Building/Property Management Fee) / Average of Assets Held in the last two Financial Years.
Importantly, the proposed increase in the Building M anagement Fee is expected to be offset
predominantly by tenant recoveries via outgoings, where provided for under lease agreements. Under
the proposed amendment, the Building Management Fee for Bay Central, Mt Wellington, and Carr
Road shopping centres would in fact be capped at the amounts recoverable from tenants. As a result,
the net cost to Investore is expected to be minimal at approximately $89k (plus an additional
approximate $134k cost if the Silverdale Centre Acquisition is approved), while ensuring that the fee
structure more accurately reflects the Manager’s responsibilities and the greater complexity of the
evolving asset base.
In addition to the Building Management Fee amendment, the introduction of the Additional Services
provides flexibility for Investore to request management services not contemplated by the current
Management Agreement, with the scope and fees for such services to be agreed between the parties.
We note that this is consistent with other additional services and associated fees historically agreed
between Investore and the Manager, such as one-off or recurring fees relating to sustainability
compliance or capital management projects.
In summary, we consider the proposed amendment to management fee p rovisions to be fair to Non-
associated Shareholders. The change to the Building Management Fee aligns the fee structure with
market, supports enhanced property management for increasingly complex assets, and is expected to
have minimal impact on distributable earnings given the recoverability through tenant outgoings. Even
post-a mendment, Investore’s total management fee load will remain conservative relative to peers.

Dear Shareholder,
Offer of up to $62.5 million of subordinated, unsecured convertible notes (Notes)(the Offer)
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to advise that Investore Property Limited (Investore)
is making an offer of Notes in the manner described below.
The Offer consists of:
• a General Offer of up to $60 million of Notes (open to investors resident in New Zealand and
Australian Institutional Investors); and
• a Shareholder Priority Offer of up to $2.5 million of Notes (open only to New Zealand
Shareholders and Australian Institutional Investors who are Shareholders as at 5.00pm on 5
September 2025).
Use of proceeds
The net proceeds raised from the Offer will be used to initially repay existing bank debt. This will
provide Investore with the flexibility and additional debt capacity to fund future acquisitions that align
with Investore’s strategy, including (subject to approval by Shareholders at the Special Meeting) the
Silverdale Centre Acquisition, and for general corporate purposes.
Term and Interest rate
During their term, the Notes will pay a fixed rate of interest, with quarterly interest payments over the
4-year term, subject to meeting the Payment Condition (as described in the PDS).
The Indicative Issue Margin range and minimum Interest Rate will be determined by Investore in
conjunction with the Joint Lead Managers and will be announced when the Offer opens. The Issue
Margin and Interest Rate are expected to be set following a bookbuild process and will be announced
to the market on or about 19 September 2025.
Conversion
The Notes will convert into ordinary shares in Investore, subject to a Cash Election by Investore as
described below. The Notes have a Conversion Date of 26 September 2029.
The number of Shares to be issued following Conversion of each holding of Notes will be determined
by dividing their Principal Amount (together with any accrued and Unpaid Interest (and any interest
thereon)) by the Conversion Price, which is the lesser of:
• the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56; and
• a 2% discount to the Market Price
1
.
This means the Conversion Price will be a 2% discount to the Market Price, unless the Market Price is
at least approximately $1.592 in which case the Conversion Price will be $1.56.
At Conversion, Noteholders will receive a minimum value of approximately $1.02 for every $1.00
invested.
2
Noteholders will also benefit from any appreciation of the Share price to the extent the
Market Price is above approximately $1.592 (being the Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the
effect of the 2% discount). Please refer to the PDS for example scenarios of Conversion at different
Market Prices.
The Conversion Price Cap may be adjusted in certain circumstances as further described in the PDS.
Cash Election
Rather than Converting the Notes, Investore may (either in whole or in part) elect instead to pay a cash
amount to Noteholders at the end of the term. In this case, Noteholders would be paid an amount
equal to the Market Price
1
multiplied by the number of Shares that would have otherwise been issued
to them on Conversion of their Notes. This means Noteholders would receive an equivalent value to
those Shares (as determined under the terms of the Notes) and would similarly benefit from any
appreciation of the Share price to the extent the Market Price is above approximately $1.592 (being the
Conversion Price Cap of $1.56 adjusted for the effect of the 2% discount).
