New Warrant Issue for Marlin


The directors of Marlin Global Limited (Marlin) are pleased to announce that the company will

undertake a pro rata offer of warrants to shareholders.

The issue of warrants is part of Marlin’s ongoing capital management programme and provides

investors with the ability to purchase additional shares in Marlin at a pre-determined Exercise Price.

The issue of warrants also aims to increase the size of the portfolio so as to improve operational

efficiency. The net proceeds from the warrant issue are expected to be used for further investment

in the Marlin portfolio.

On the record date, eligible Marlin shareholders will be issued one warrant for every four shares

held. The record date for the issue is 22 April 2026, and the warrants are expected to be allotted on

23 April 2026.


Each warrant gives shareholders the right, but not the obligation, to subscribe for one additional

ordinary share in Marlin on the exercise date. The exercise date is 23 April 2027.


The exercise price will be $0.87 less any dividends declared (and the impact of any capital structure

changes, per clause 28 of the Warrant Terms Offer Document) with a record date during the period

commencing on the date of allotment of the warrants and up to the announcement of the final

exercise price. The final exercise price will be calculated and advised to warrant holders at least six

weeks before the exercise date.


The warrants are expected to be quoted on the NZX Main Board from 24 April 2026 under the issuer

code MLNWH.

KEY TERMS

Issuer

Marlin Global Limited (Marlin)

The Offer

This is an offer of Warrants in Marlin. Each Eligible Shareholder will be

issued one Warrant for every four Shares held, subject to rounding, at

5.00pm (New Zealand time) on the Record Date (22 April 2026).

Each Warrant gives the holder a right to buy one Share in Marlin upon

payment of the Exercise Price on the Exercise Date (23 April 2027).

Eligible

Shareholders

Warrants will be issued to Marlin Shareholders with a registered

address in New Zealand recorded on the share register at 5.00pm

(New Zealand time) on the Record Date.

Issue price for

Warrants

Nil – Eligible Shareholders will not have to make any payment to

receive their entitlement of Warrants.

Approximate number

of Warrants to be

issued

57.2 million (approximately). The exact number will depend on

rounding.

Quotation of

Warrants

Application has been made to NZX for permission to quote the

Warrants on the NZX Main Board and all the requirements of NZX

relating to the quotation of the Warrants that can be complied with

on or before the date of this document have been complied with.

However, the Warrants have not yet been approved for trading and

NZX accepts no responsibility for any statement in this document.

NZX is a licensed market operator, and the NZX Main Board is a

licensed market under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

If approved for trading, initial quotation of the Warrants on the NZX

Main Board is expected to occur on 24 April 2026 under the ticker

code MLNWH, ISIN NZMLNE0013S5.

Exercise of Warrants

Warrant Holders may:

• exercise some or all of their Warrants by completing an online

Exercise Form with the Registrar (and making payment) by

the Exercise Date (if you choose to exercise only some of your

Warrants, it must be a number which ensures you will have a

minimum holding of Shares under the Listing Rules);

• sell some or all of their Warrants on the NZX Main Board; or

• allow their Warrants to lapse.

Any Warrants not exercised on the Exercise Date will lapse.

If you do not exercise your Warrants, your shareholding in Marlin may

be diluted by other Warrant Holders who exercise their Warrants.

This dilution will relate to your percentage shareholding in Marlin as

the number of Shares that you hold will not change as a result of not

participating in the Offer.

The issue of new Shares on exercise of the Warrants may result in a

consequential reduction in the net asset value (NAV) per Share once

the new Shares are issued. The extent of the dilution effect (if any) on

the NAV per Share will depend upon the actual number of Warrants

exercised and the final Exercise Price in comparison to the NAV per

Share immediately prior to the issue of the new Shares.

MARLIN GLOBAL LIMITED
WARRANT TERMS

3

In order to illustrate the potential reduction in NAV per Share for those

who do not exercise or sell their Warrants, the dilution effect associated

with prior Marlin warrants over the last fifteen years has ranged from a

0% to 4.3% reduction in NAV per Share. (Please note that the dilution

effect from future warrants has no correlation with the dilution effect

experienced from historical warrants).

Exercise Price

$0.87 per Warrant, but with such amount to be adjusted down for

the aggregate amount per Share of any cash dividends declared on

the Shares with a record date during the period commencing on the

date of allotment of the Warrants and ending on the last Business Day

before the final Exercise Price is announced by Marlin.

The final Exercise Price per Warrant (following the adjustment referred

to above) will be calculated to the nearest one hundredth of a cent and

then rounded up or down to the nearest whole cent.

Announcement of

final Exercise Price

Marlin will announce the final Exercise Price to the NZX at least six

weeks before the Exercise Date. Marlin will also provide confirmation

of the final Exercise Price to Warrant Holders through their recorded

preferred method for receipt of company communications.

How to Exercise

your Warrants

If you are a Warrant Holder and wish to exercise any of your Warrants

and subscribe for Shares, you must complete the online Exercise

Form (and make payment of the Exercise Price) by the Exercise Date.

Marlin will advise Warrant Holders how to access the online Exercise

Form as soon as reasonably practicable after the final Exercise Price

has been determined.

Warrant Holders must exercise their Warrants by completing an

online Exercise Form. Exercise Forms will not be provided to Warrant

Holders in hard-copy.

Important notice

Warrants (and Shares to be issued on the

exercise of Warrants) are offered to Eligible

Shareholders pursuant to the exclusion

in clause 19(1A) of Schedule 1 of the

Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

This document is not a product disclosure

statement for the purposes of the Financial

Markets Conduct Act 2013 and does

not contain all of the information that an

investor would find in a product disclosure

statement, or which may be required to

make an informed decision about the

Warrants or an investment in Marlin.

The information in this document does

not constitute a recommendation to

exercise Warrants nor does it amount to

financial advice. This document has been

prepared without taking into account

the particular needs or circumstances of

any investor, including their investment

objectives, financial and/or tax position.

All investments carry risk. If you are in

any doubt about what action to take, you

should contact a financial advice provider,

an NZX Adviser Firm or your accountant

or other professional adviser. Please read

this document carefully and in full before

making any decision.

This document does not constitute an

offer, advertisement or invitation in any

place in which, or to any person to whom,

it would not be lawful to make such an

offer, advertisement or invitation.

No guarantee is provided by any person

in relation to the Warrants or Shares.

Likewise, no warranty is provided with

regard to the future performance of Marlin,

or any return on any investments made

pursuant to this document.

Additional information about Marlin

Global Limited

Marlin is subject to continuous disclosure

obligations under the Listing Rules

which require it to notify certain material

information to NZX. Market releases by

Marlin, including the most recent annual

report (for the period ended 30 June 2025)

are available at nzx.com under the ticker

code MLN and on Marlin’s website,

marlin.co.nz. Marlin also releases through

NZX weekly and month end details of the

NAV of the portfolio and monthly updates

and quarterly newsletters.

Marlin may, prior to the Exercise Date,

make additional market releases to NZX.

You should monitor Marlin’s market

announcements before deciding whether

to exercise or sell your Warrants. No

market release by Marlin will permit a

Warrant Holder to withdraw any previously

submitted online Exercise Form without

Marlin’s prior consent.

Market risk

The market price of Shares may increase

or decrease between the issue of this

document and the date of allotment of

new Shares upon exercise of the Warrants.

Because Marlin invests in shares of other

companies, changes in the market prices

of those other shares may affect Marlin’s

share price. Any subsequent changes in

the market price of Shares will not affect

the Exercise Price, and the market price of

Shares following allotment may be higher

or lower than the Exercise Price.

Marlin’s share price can trade at either a

premium to the NAV, or at a discount to

the NAV. Marlin’s NAV is calculated on a

weekly and month end basis, and released

to the NZX and disclosed on Marlin’s

website, marlin.co.nz.

The dates shown above are subject to change and indicative only. Marlin reserves the

right to vary or extend these dates subject to applicable law and the Listing Rules.

Changes will be advised by announcement to NZX.

Marlin may decide not to proceed with the issue of Warrants at any time before the

allotment of Warrants at its absolute discretion. Shareholders will have no right to receive

Warrants or any compensation if Marlin decides not to proceed.

The Offer

1. Marlin will issue one Warrant for

every four Shares held by an Eligible

Shareholder recorded on the share

register at 5.00pm (New Zealand time)

on the Record Date (22 April 2026).

2. The purpose of the issue of Warrants

is to raise capital as part of Marlin’s

ongoing capital management

programme and provide investors

with the ability to purchase additional

shares in Marlin at a pre-determined

Exercise Price. The issue of Warrants

also aims to increase the size of the

portfolio so as to improve operational

efficiency. The net proceeds are

expected to be used for further

investment in the Marlin portfolio.

Grant of Warrants

3. Warrants will only be issued to

Shareholders with a registered

address in New Zealand recorded

on the share register at 5.00pm

(New Zealand time) on the Record

Date. Warrants will not be issued

to Marlin’s overseas Shareholders

as Marlin considers that the legal

requirements of other jurisdictions in

which Shareholders have a registered

address are such that it would be

unduly onerous for Marlin to issue

Warrants to Shareholders in those

jurisdictions, having regard to the

low number of such Shareholders

and the likely costs of complying with

the relevant legal requirements. This

document is intended for use only in

connection with the issue of Warrants

to Eligible Shareholders.

4. Shareholders with a registered

address outside of New Zealand

recorded on the share register at

5.00pm (New Zealand time) on the

Record Date will have the Warrants

they would have otherwise received,

issued to a separate registry account

with the Registrar. Marlin will

endeavour to sell those Warrants on

the NZX Main Board and hold the

proceeds on trust and account to

those Shareholders on a pro rata basis

for the proceeds (net of costs). There

is no guarantee that the Warrants will

be able to be sold or as to the amount

of proceeds that may be received from

the sale of the Warrants. Any Warrants

which cannot be sold will lapse on the

Exercise Date.

5. Warrant Holders who do not have a

registered address in New Zealand

and who have acquired Warrants on

the NZX Main Board will be entitled

to exercise those Warrants (subject to

compliance with all legal requirements

applicable to them). Individual

overseas Warrant Holders will be

responsible for ensuring they comply

with all applicable legal requirements

in their home jurisdiction.

DETAILS OF THE OFFER

The market price of Warrants may also increase or decrease while they are quoted on the

NZX Main Board.

Rounding of Warrants

6. If a Shareholder would receive a

fraction of a Warrant by applying the

1:4 ratio, the number of Warrants to

be issued to that Shareholder will

be rounded up to the nearest whole

number.

7. To ensure all Eligible Shareholders

receive Warrants on an equal basis, no

additional Warrants will be issued by

Marlin to those Shareholders whose

existing holding, plus new shares,

would be less than the minimum

holding under the NZX Listing Rules.

You may hold less than a minimum

holding of Warrants, and you may be

able to buy further Warrants on the

NZX Main Board if you wish to do so.

NZX quotation

8. Application has been made to NZX

for permission to quote the Warrants

on the NZX Main Board. All of

NZX’s requirements relating to that

application that can be complied with

on or before the date of this document

have been complied with. However,

the Warrants have not yet been

approved for trading and NZX accepts

no responsibility for any statement

in this document. NZX is a licensed

market operator and the NZX Main

Board is a licensed market under the

Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

9. In the event that the application to NZX

for permission to quote the Warrants is

declined, the issue of the Warrants will

not proceed.

10. Marlin intends to take all necessary

steps to ensure that the Shares issued

on exercise of the Warrants will,

immediately after issue, be quoted on

the NZX Main Board.

Transfer

11. Warrant may be transferred in the

same manner, and subject to the same

restrictions, as a Share. The Directors

will have the same powers in respect

of the approval of registration of a

transfer of Warrants as they have in

respect of a transfer of Shares.

12. A Warrant Holder who sells their

Warrants on the NZX Main Board

may be liable to pay brokerage fees.

Following allotment, the sale of Shares

may be subject to brokerage fees.

13. If you wish to sell Shares you hold

directly on the NZX Main Board, you

should contact an NZX Adviser Firm

and have a Common Shareholder

Number (CSN) and an authorisation

code, Faster Identification Number

(FIN).

Rights of Warrant Holders

14. Each Warrant entitles the Warrant

Holder to:

a. subscribe for one Share in Marlin

credited as fully paid, upon the

payment of the Exercise Price by

the Exercise Date (23 April 2027);

b. all information provided by Marlin to

Shareholders, including its annual

report and notices of Shareholder

meetings;

c. any other rights conferred on

Warrant Holders by Marlin’s

constitution, the Companies Act

1993 or the Listing Rules (except

as provided otherwise in this

document); and

d. attend (but not vote at) any meeting

of Shareholders (or any group of

Shareholders).

DETAILS OF THE OFFER CONTINUED

MARLIN GLOBAL LIMITED
WARRANT TERMS

715. A Warrant does not entitle the Warrant

Holder to:

a. vote at a meeting of Shareholders

(or any group of Shareholders);

b. receive any dividends on Shares

declared by the Directors; or

c. participate with Shareholders or the

holders of any other securities in

the residual assets of Marlin upon

the liquidation of the company.

Exercise of Warrants

16. The Exercise Price is $0.87 per

Warrant, but with such amount to

be adjusted down for the aggregate

amount per Share of any cash

dividends declared on the Shares

with a record date during the period

commencing on the date of allotment

of the Warrants and ending on the

last Business Day before the final

Exercise Price is announced by Marlin.

The final Exercise Price per Warrant

will be calculated to the nearest one

hundredth of a cent and then rounded

up or down to the nearest whole cent.

17. Warrant Holders may choose to

exercise only some or all of their

Warrants provided that they will

have, following the exercise of their

Warrants, a minimum holding of

Shares under the Listing Rules.

18. If you choose to exercise any

Warrants, you will be required to pay

the Exercise Price for those Warrants

in full by the Exercise Date. You will not

be required to pay brokerage or any

other charges in order to exercise your

Warrants.

19. If you are a Warrant Holder and wish

to exercise any of your Warrants

and subscribe for Shares, you must

complete the online Exercise Form

by the Exercise Date. Marlin will

direct Warrant Holders to the online

Exercise Form as soon as reasonably

practicable after the final Exercise

Price has been determined.

20. The online Exercise Form must be

completed and payment made (in a

manner prescribed by Marlin in the

Exercise Letter) of an amount equal

to the Exercise Price multiplied by the

number of Warrants being exercised,

in time for the online Exercise Form

and payment to be received by the

Registrar no later than 5.00pm (New

Zealand time) on the Exercise Date.

Applications received after this

time may not be accepted. Further

instructions for completing the online

Exercise Form will be set out in the

Exercise Letter.

21. Marlin may accept or reject any online

Exercise Form which it considers is

incorrectly completed or incomplete

or otherwise determined to be invalid.

Marlin may correct any errors or

omissions on any online Exercise

Form. If there is a discrepancy

between the amount of application

monies received by Marlin and the

number of Warrants being exercised

as indicated on the online Exercise

Form, Marlin will regard the Warrant

Holder as only exercising the number

of Warrants in respect of which it has

paid the Exercise Price in full.

22. A Warrant Holder will not be able to

withdraw or revoke the exercise of

their Warrants once an online Exercise

Form has been submitted, without the

consent of Marlin.

23. Until the allotment of Shares, funds

received by Marlin for the exercise

of Warrants will be held on trust in

a separate bank account by the

Registrar for the benefit of the relevant

Warrant Holders according to their

respective entitlements and for Marlin.

If the allotment of Shares does not

MARLIN GLOBAL LIMITED
WARRANT TERMS

8

proceed, Marlin will refund application

monies within 10 Business Days. Any

interest on those funds will be paid to

Marlin.

Allotment of Shares

24. All Shares issued on the exercise of

Warrants will be fully paid ordinary

Shares and rank equally with all other

Shares on issue at the date of allotment

(including on a liquidation of Marlin).

Marlin will allot Shares to Warrant

Holders who validly exercise their

Warrants within five Business Days after

the Exercise Date.

25. If you are an existing Shareholder who

chooses not to exercise your Warrants,

your shareholding in Marlin may be

diluted if other Warrant Holders exercise

Warrants and the total number of

Shares on issue in Marlin increases as a

result.

26. Shares issued on the exercise of

Warrants will be entitled to participate

in dividends declared on the Shares

which have a record date after the date

of allotment of the Shares.

27. Marlin currently has a distribution policy

as at the date of this document to pay

Shareholders (but not Warrant Holders)

2% of the company’s average net asset

value (NAV) per quarter. Payments

are usually made in March, June,

September and December of each year.

A copy of Marlin’s distribution policy,

which could be changed at any time in

the future, is available at marlin.co.nz/

about-marlin/marlin-policies under the

heading ‘Distribution Policy’.

Adjustments for changes to capital

structure

28. The Exercise Price may be varied

before the Exercise Date if Marlin’s

capital is restructured, such as upon a

rights issue, bonus issue, convertible

securities issue, share consolidation

or subdivision or a cancellation or

buyback of Shares. The adjustment

process is described further below.

a. If Marlin makes a rights issue of

Shares to Shareholders before the

Exercise Date (a “Rights Issue”),

then the Exercise Price of any

Warrants will (subject to alternative

adjustments in accordance

with paragraph b or c below) be

adjusted in accordance with the

following formula:

EP

new

= the new Exercise Price of

the Warrants

EP

old

= the old Exercise Price of

the Warrants

E = the number of Shares

into which one Warrant is

exercisable

AP = the average market price

per Share (weighted by

reference to volume) during

the five Business Days

ending on the day before

the ex-date for the rights

issue

S = the subscription price for

a Share under the rights

issue

D = any dividend due but not

yet paid on the existing

Shares (except dividends to

be issued under the rights

issue)

N = the number of Shares with

rights or entitlements that

must be held to receive a

right to one new Share

EP

= EP

old


E[AP – (S+D)]

N + 1

DETAILS OF THE OFFER CONTINUED

MARLIN GLOBAL LIMITED
WARRANT TERMS

9The necessary adjustment will

be determined by the Board by

applying the formula set out above.

The Board’s determination will, in

the absence of manifest error, be

binding on all Warrant Holders and

other persons. Any adjustment

so determined will be made, and

take effect, on the Business Day

following the record date for the

rights issue.

b. If Marlin makes a bonus issue to

Shareholders, then the Board may

resolve that the number of Shares

over which a Warrant is exercisable

be increased (or additional Shares

may be reserved for issue on

exercise of the Warrants) by

the number of Shares which

the Warrant Holder would have

received if that Warrant had been

exercised before the record date of

the bonus issue.

c. If Marlin makes a consolidation or

subdivision or similar proportionate

reconstruction of the Shares, the

number of Shares over which a

Warrant is exercisable may be

consolidated or subdivided in the

same ratio and the Exercise Price

amended in inverse proportion to

that ratio.

d. If, notwithstanding the adjustment

procedures permitted, Marlin’s

capital is restructured (including

a rights issue, bonus issue,

convertible securities issue,

consolidation, subdivision,

cancellation or Share buyback) and

the Board determines, upon the

advice of an Independent Expert,

that:

i. the application of the

formula under paragraph

a, an adjustment permitted

by paragraph b or the non-

applicability of both such

clauses may produce a result

which is prejudicial or unduly

advantageous (based on

reasonable grounds) to Warrant

Holders; or

ii. an alternative adjustment that is

not envisaged in paragraph a, b

or c could be applied,

then the number of Warrants

held, the number of Shares over

which a Warrant is exercisable,

and the Exercise Price, or any

combination thereof, may, to the

extent necessary, be altered in a

manner determined by the Board,

upon the advice of an Independent

Expert and subject always to the

Listing Rules or relief granted

from any applicable Listing Rule,

to ensure that Warrant Holders

are not prejudiced (nor unduly

advantaged or disadvantaged) by

the reconstruction of capital, and in

all other respects the terms of the

Warrants will remain unchanged.

Any such adjustment will be final

and binding on all Warrant Holders.

No guarantee

29. No person guarantees the Warrants

or the Shares that may be issued on

exercise of the Warrants. In addition,

no person guarantees the future

performance of Marlin, the Warrants,

the Shares or any return on an

investment in Marlin or a holding of

Warrants.

30. The issue of Warrants is not

underwritten.

Dear Shareholder,

The Board of Marlin Global Limited (NZX: MLN) (Marlin) today announced an issue of warrants.

The issue of warrants is part of Marlin’s ongoing capital management programme and provides investors with the

ability to purchase additional shares in Marlin at a pre-determined Exercise Price. The issue of warrants also aims

to increase the size of the portfolio so as to improve operational efficiency. The net proceeds from the warrant

issue are expected to be used for further investment in the Marlin portfolio.

What is a Marlin warrant?

A warrant gives the holder a right to buy one share in Marlin upon payment of the Exercise Price on the Exercise

Date (23 April 2027).

Who is eligible for the Marlin warrants?

Warrants will be issued to Marlin shareholders with a registered address in New Zealand recorded on the share

register as at 5.00pm (New Zealand time) on the Record Date (22 April 2026) (Eligible Shareholders). As long as

you hold Marlin shares at that time, you will be entitled to receive one warrant for every four shares you hold. If

you are a Marlin shareholder but do not have a registered address in New Zealand, your warrants will be issued to

a separate registry account with Marlin's share registrar, and we will endeavour to sell the warrants on the NZX

Main Board on your behalf.

How many Marlin warrants do I get?

Each Eligible Shareholder will be issued one warrant for every four shares held at 5.00pm (New Zealand time) on

the Record Date (22 April 2026), subject to rounding up where the Eligible Shareholder would receive a fraction of

a warrant by applying the 1:4 ratio.

What do I need to do to receive the Marlin warrants?

You do not need to do anything to be issued warrants. Computershare will send a statement informing you of

your new warrant holding if you are an Eligible Shareholder. This is expected to be on or about 28 April 2026.

What can I do with the warrants?

• You can elect to exercise some or all of your warrants by 23 April 2027 by completing the online Exercise

Form and making payment of the final Exercise Price for those warrants. We will contact you again in March

2027 before the Exercise Date, with details of the final Exercise Price and provide you with details of how to

access and complete the online Exercise Form.

• You can seek to sell or transfer some or all of your warrants on the NZX Main Board from 24 April 2026 until

5.00pm on 19 April 2027.

• You can elect to not exercise or sell any warrants and allow the warrants to lapse. If you do not exercise your

warrants, your shareholding in Marlin will be diluted by other warrant holders who exercise their warrants.


If I want to exercise the warrants, how much will it cost?

The final Exercise Price will be determined closer to the Exercise Date. It will be $0.87 per warrant, but with such

amount to be adjusted down for the aggregate amount per share of any cash dividends declared on Marlin shares

with a record date during the period commencing on the date of allotment of the warrants (23 April 2026) and

ending on the last business day before the final Exercise Price is announced by Marlin.
