This presentation includes forward-looking statements. The words "expect", "anticipate", "intends", "plan", "estimate", "aim", "forecast", "project" and similar expressions (or their negative) identify certain of

these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are statements regarding the Issuer' and the Guarantor's intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, the

Group's results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and the industry in which the Group operates. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are based on

numerous assumptions regarding the Group's present and future business strategies and the environment in which the Group will operate in the future. Forward-looking statements involve inherent known and

unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future and may cause the actual results, performance or

achievements of the Group to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the Issuer's and

the Guarantor's ability to control or estimate precisely, such as future market conditions, currency fluctuations, the behaviour of other market participants, the actions of regulators and other factors such as the

Group's ability to continue to obtain financing to meet its liquidity needs, changes in the political, social and regulatory framework in which the Group operates or in economic or technological trends or

conditions. Past performance should not be taken as an indication or guarantee of future results, and no representation or warranty, express or implied, is made regarding future performance. The Issuer, the

Guarantor and each of the Joint Lead Managers expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release any updates or revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any change in the Issuer's or

the Guarantor's expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based after the date of this presentation or to update or to keep current any

other information contained in this presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation.

This presentation includes measures of financial performance which are not a measure of financial performance under the New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards ("NZ IFRS"),

such as "EBITDA". These measures are presented because the Issuer and the Guarantor believe they are useful measures to determine the Group's financial condition and historical ability to provide investment

returns. "EBITDA" and the other measures of financial performance in this presentation should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative

to net profit or indicators of the Group's operating performance on any other measure of performance derived in accordance with NZ IFRS. Because "EBITDA" is not a NZ IFRS measure, "EBITDA" may not be

comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

What is driving data growth?

13

Advances in customer-facing technology, services and AI

Debt Investor Presentation November 2025
Fibre is AI ready

14

Venture Insights six key takeaways**:

1.The AI Revolution Reframes the Debate: . . . no longer “fibre

vs. FWA, but “which infrastructure assets are best positioned to

absorb an unpredictable, AI-driven demand shock?”

2.FWA’s Value Proposition is Fragile: This position is vulnerable

to the emergence of mainstream AI applications that will shatter

the “good enough” performance threshold

3.Uncertainty as the Key Variable: The timing and scale of AI’s

impact are unknown, but the direction is not. Infrastructure that

offers maximum performance headroom and reliability makes

fibre the premier long-term asset

4.Symmetry & Latency as Future KPIs: AI applications will

drive demand for symmetrical bandwidth and ultra low, stable

latency network requirements (key strengths of fibre networks)-

positioning these attributes as critical performance indicators

5.Repercussions for Asset Positioning: Core of integrated

telcos’ digital service ambitions will rely on fibre access

6.A New Lens for Valuation: Investors should assess

telecommunications assets based on their readiness for the AI

era

•Industry forecasts anticipate a significant step-up in AI driven

data demand

•Nokia global network traffic report forecast: AI will generate

38% of global consumer broadband traffic by 2033

22

•Chorus is required to provide wholesale services to retailers on a non-discriminatory basis

•Chorus fibre access services, excluding fibre in other fibre company areas, operate under a Regulated Asset Base (RAB) building

blocks regime. The Commerce Commission sets a Maximum Allowable Revenue (MAR) that includes a mechanism for revenue

wash-ups and inflation and is also used for electricity lines and gas network businesses

Areas where fibre is available (~87% population)

•Chorus can withdraw copper services in accordance with

Copper Withdrawal Code set by Commission (6 months

notice)

•A RAB building blocks regime with revenue cap applies to

specified fibre access services outside of other fibre

company areas

•The building blocks regime was first introduced for 2022-

2024, settings for the next period 2025-2028 in place

Areas where fibre is not available (~13% population)

•Chorus supplies copper fixed line services to a diminishing

customer base

•The Commerce Commission has recommended copper

deregulation to government

•A Telecommunications Service Obligation (TSO) for voice

services applies to residential addresses that existed in

2001

COMMERCE COMMISSION

•Copper services deregulation: positive Commerce

Commission recommendation to Minister

•Fibre services deregulation: considering voice and backhaul

services

•Fibre input methodologies review: focus on selected key

topics, e.g. risk free rate setting, network expansion

investment, capex approval process

Note: no change to revenue cap as form of control

MINISTRY FOR REGULATION

•Telco sector review: considering whether current regulation

is fit for purpose in light of technology and market changes.

Chorus is seeking removal of legacy interventions that are no

longer fit for purpose e.g. Telecommunications Service

Obligation, shareholder cap and other obsolete rules.

Note: no change to structural separation of retail and wholesale

for fibre services.

*PQP2 is the second regulatory period, determined by the Commission on 28 February 2023 as the 4-year period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2028

** opex allowance excludes ~$20m p.a. of pass-through costs included in MAR. Chorus expects to add $10m-$20m opex p.a. (to be recovered via wash-up) as copper shuts down in CNU fibre areas

*** capex allowance may increase subject to installation demand and any future incentive proposal


•Regulatory clarity for PQP2 (CY2025-2028):

▫ID reporting (31 May) showed CNU was very close to

earning the 2024 MAR

▫PQ-FFLAS opex allocations will reflect copper withdrawal

and decline in copper direct costs

▫Chorus calls for regulatory simplification reflected in

telco sector review terms of reference

•Final maximum allowable revenue (MAR) decision (Dec

2024) defers $256m of core fibre asset depreciation from

price-quality period 2 (PQP2)*

•We expect opening core regulated asset base (RAB) to

grow from $4.99bn (Commission forecast at 13 Dec 2024) to

On 10 October, the NZ Government announced they had

instructed National Infrastructure Funding and

Infrastructure Limited (NIFF) to:

•Investigate the feasibility of selling the Crown Funding

Securities (being debt and equity securities held by NIFF on

behalf of the Crown) to private investors

•NIFF’s programme of work will include due diligence of the

contractual terms of the securities, commercial valuation,

testing of market appetite and advice on an optimal sales

process

•It is expected advice on whether to proceed with the sale will

go to the NIFF board and shareholding ministers by the end

of CY 2025

•If the sale proceeds, it is expected to be completed in the

first half of CY 2026

Chorus perspective

•Ambivalent as to who owns the securities

•A new holder cannot alter the terms of the securities without

Chorus’ agreement

•Chorus may participate in the sale process if economically

rational, and would finance any acquisition in a credit neutral

manner

1.Liabilities, depending on the source of payment, include employee entitlements for unpaid salaries and wages, holiday pay and bonuses, and PAYE, and amounts owing to the Inland Revenue for unpaid taxes and goods and

services tax. There are typically other liabilities which are preferred by law or secured, including enforcement costs and similar, which arise when a company is in liquidation which are not possible to foresee and cannot therefore

be quantified

Notes:

(1) As at the date of the Tender Offer Memorandum.

(2) As further described in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

Tender Offer

The Tender Offer will commence on 11 November 2025 and will expire at 4:00 p.m. (London

time), on 25 November 2025 (the "Expiration Deadline"), unless extended, earlier terminated

or withdrawn at the sole and absolute discretion of the Offeror as described herein.

The Offeror invites (subject to offer and distribution restrictions) Qualifying Holders of the

Notes who wish to tender such notes for purchase by the Offeror for a cash amount equal to

the Tender Consideration, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the

Tender Offer as described in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

The Offeror proposes to accept for purchase for cash any and all of the Notes validly tendered

on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Tender Offer Memorandum. The

Offeror will determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, the aggregate principal amount of

Notes (if any) that it will accept for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, which amount will

be announced following the Expiration Deadline. There is no maximum purchase amount and

accepted Tender Instructions will not be subject to proration. The Offeror reserves the right to

reject or accept any Notes validly offered for sale pursuant to the Tender Offer Memorandum

in its sole and absolute discretion.

The price payable per principal amount of the Notes in respect of invitations to tender accepted

by the Offeror is the Purchase Price determined as described in "Terms of the Tender Offer —

Purchase Price" of the Tender Offer Memorandum by reference to the sum of the fixed

purchase spread of +5 basis points over the Interpolated Mid-Swap Rate plus the Accrued

Interest Payment.

Notes purchased by the Offeror pursuant to the Tender Offer will be immediately cancelled by

the Offeror. Notes which have not been validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to

the Tender Offer will remain outstanding after the Settlement Date.

Custodians, Direct Participants and Clearing Systems will have deadlines for receiving

instructions prior to the Expiration Deadline and Qualifying Holders should contact the

intermediary through which they hold their Notes as soon as possible to ensure proper and

timely delivery of instructions.



- 3 -



Rationale for the Tender Offer

The Offeror is looking to refinance the outstanding Notes and extend the debt maturity profile

of its liabilities.

New Notes and Financing Condition

The Offeror has also announced investor marketing for an offering of Euro denominated fixed

rate guaranteed notes (the "New Notes"), subject to market conditions. The Tender Offer is

conditional upon the settlement and issuance of the New Notes on or before the Settlement

Date (the "Financing Condition"). In addition, validly submitted Tender Instructions will be

irrevocable except in the limited circumstances described in the section titled "Amendment,

Termination, Withdrawal or Extension" of the Tender Offer Memorandum.

Priority Allocation in the New Notes

A Qualifying Holder who wishes to subscribe for New Notes in addition to tendering or

indicating its firm intention to tender Notes for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer may, at

the sole and absolute discretion of the Offeror, receive priority (the "New Notes Priority") in

the allocation of the New Notes, subject to such Qualifying Holder making a separate

application for the subscription of such New Notes to one of the Dealer Managers in its capacity

as Joint Lead Manager of the issue of the New Notes and in accordance with the standard new

issue procedures of such Joint Lead Manager.

Such priority may be given for an aggregate principal amount of New Notes up to the aggregate

principal amount of the Notes validly tendered or firmly indicated to be tendered by that

Qualifying Holder and accepted for purchase by the Offeror pursuant to the Tender Offer and

may be given over any investor who is applying for purchase of such New Notes without having

Notes accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer. However, the Offeror is not obliged to allocate

the New Notes to any Qualifying Holder who has validly tendered or indicated a firm intention

to tender the Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer. Any allocation of the New Notes, while being

considered by the Offeror as set out above, will be made in accordance with customary new

issue allocation processes and procedures.

The denomination of the New Notes will be €100,000.

To request New Notes Priority, a Qualifying Holder should contact a Dealer Manager (in its

capacity as a Joint Lead Manager of the issue of the New Notes) using the contact details set

out below and on the back cover page of the Tender Offer Memorandum.

The application to receive priority in the allocation of New Notes does not constitute an offer

or acceptance by any Qualifying Holder to purchase New Notes, and any investment decision

to purchase any New Notes should be made solely on the basis of the information contained in

the New Notes Information Memorandum, which will be available from the Joint Lead

Managers on request, subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws and regulations,

and no reliance is to be placed on any representations other than those contained in such New

Notes Information Memorandum.

The pricing of the New Notes is expected to take place prior to the Expiration Deadline and,

as such, Qualifying Holders are advised to contact a Dealer Manager (in its capacity as a Joint


- 4 -



Lead Manager of the issue of the New Notes) as soon as possible prior to the Expiration

Deadline and prior to the pricing of the New Notes in order to request New Notes Priority.

The Tender Offer Memorandum is not an offer of securities for sale in the United States or to

U.S. Persons. Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration

under, or an exemption from the registration requirements of, the Securities Act. Nothing in

the Tender Offer Memorandum constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy

the New Notes or the guarantee thereof in the United States or any other jurisdiction. Neither

the New Notes nor the guarantee thereof may be offered, sold or delivered in the United States

absent registration under, or an exemption from the registration requirements of, the Securities

Act. The New Notes and the guarantee thereof have not been, and will not be, registered under

the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States,

and may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United States or to, or

for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons.

The ability to purchase New Notes is subject to all applicable securities laws and regulations

in force in any relevant jurisdiction (including the jurisdiction of the relevant Qualifying Holder

and the selling restrictions set out in the New Notes Information Memorandum). It is the sole

responsibility of each Qualifying Holder to satisfy itself that it is eligible to purchase New

Notes before requesting New Notes Priority.

No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction in relation to the Tender Offer that would

permit a public offering of securities.

Procedure for Participating in the Tender Offer

A Qualifying Holder wishing to participate in the Tender Offer must deliver, or arrange to have

delivered on its behalf, via the relevant Clearing System and in accordance with the

requirements of such Clearing System, a valid Tender Instruction that is received by the Tender

and Information Agent by the Expiration Deadline. Qualifying Holders are advised to check

with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Notes when

such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a Qualifying Holder in order for that

Qualifying Holder to be able to participate in the Tender Offer by the deadline specified in the

Tender Offer Memorandum.

Only Direct Participants may submit Tender Instructions. Each Qualifying Holder who is not

a Direct Participant must arrange for the Direct Participant through which such Qualifying

Holder holds its Notes to submit a Tender Instruction on its behalf to the relevant Clearing

System before the deadlines specified by the relevant Clearing System.

The offer by a Qualifying Holder, or the relevant Direct Participant on its behalf, to participate

in the Tender Offer may be revoked by such Qualifying Holder, or the relevant Direct

Participant on its behalf, only in the limited circumstances described in "Amendment,

Termination, Withdrawal or Extension" of the Tender Offer Memorandum.
