3.78% CIP1 Warrants
For an issue of Convertible Financial
Products or Options, the principal terms of
Conversion (for example the Conversion
price and Conversion date and the ranking
of the Financial Product in relation to other
Classes of Financial Product) or the Option
(for example, the exercise price and
exercise date)
CIP1 Warrants are an option to acquire
ordinary Chorus shares on a specified exercise
date at a set strike price.

CIP1 Warrants are issued for no
consideration.

Each CIP1 Warrant gives the holder the right,
on a specified exercise date, to purchase an
ordinary Chorus share at a set strike price. The
strike price is based on a total shareholder
return of 16% per annum on ordinary Chorus
shares over the relevant period. Therefore, a
holder of a CIP1 Warrant is only likely to
exercise the CIP1 Warrant if total shareholder
return on ordinary Chorus shares has exceeded
16% per annum over that period.

The exercise dates correspond to the
repayment dates for the CIP1 Debt Securities
and the dates on which dividends become
payable on an increased proportion of CIP1
Equity Securities, and will therefore be
between 2025 and 2036.

The percentage is to be calculated immediately before the issue, acquisition, redemption or Conversion.
