Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited | Notice of Annual Meeting
Explanatory Notes - Resolution
The Resolution is an ordinary resolution. To be passed at this
Annual Meeting, the Resolution requires the approval of a
simple majority of the votes cast by Shareholders entitled to
vote and voting.
Auditor’s fees and expenses
Ernst & Young (EY) is the current auditor of the Company.
Under the Companies Act 1993, a company’s auditor
is automatically reappointed unless the Shareholders
resolve to appoint a replacement auditor or certain
other specified reasons exist for the auditor not to
be reappointed.
However, notwithstanding the automatic reappointment
of an auditor under the Companies Act 1993, the auditor’s
fees and expenses must be fixed by the Company at
the Annual Meeting, or in the manner that the Company
determines at the Annual Meeting.
Therefore, Shareholders are being asked to resolve that
the Directors be authorised to fix the fees and expenses
of EY for the audit of the Company’s financial statements
for the year ending 31 December 2026.
The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders
vote in favour of this Resolution.

and disqualifications
Provided that they are registered as holding Shares
on Channel Infrastructure’s share register at 2.00pm
on Monday 4 May 2026 (being the “Record Date”), all
Shareholders will be entitled to vote on the Resolution at
the Annual Meeting.
There are no voting restrictions placed on the Resolution.
Casting votes
Shareholders may cast their vote in one of three ways:
A. Personal attendance
If Shareholders wish they can attend the Annual Meeting
in person or participate virtually via the Computershare
Online Meetings platform https://meetnow.global/nz
provided by the Company’s share registrar,
Computershare Investor Services Limited. Persons wishing
to attend in person will be required to show proof that
they are a holder of Shares in the Company or a validly
appointed proxy or corporate representative.
If a Shareholder is a body corporate it may appoint a
representative to attend the Annual Meeting on its behalf
in the same manner as that in which it could appoint
a proxy.
B. Proxies
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Annual
Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote
instead of the Shareholder. A proxy need not be another
Shareholder. A Shareholder may appoint “The Chair of
the Meeting” as proxy. The Chair intends to vote any
undirected proxies held by him in favour of the Resolution.
If you have ticked the “PROXY DISCRETION” box and your
named proxy does not attend the Annual Meeting or you
have not named a proxy but have otherwise completed
the Proxy Form in full, the Chair of the Annual Meeting will
act as your proxy. With respect to any other direction the
Proxy Form will take effect as a postal vote. The Chair’s
voting intentions are set out in the paragraph above.
A Proxy Form is enclosed with this Notice of Annual
Meeting. If used to appoint a proxy, it must be deposited
with the Company no later than 48 hours before the time
for holding the Annual Meeting (i.e. on or before 2.00pm
on Monday 4 May 2026). A Proxy Form may be deposited
with the Company by any of the following methods:

•
Delivering it to the Company’s share registrar’s office
at Level 2, 159 Hurstmere Road, Takapuna, Auckland;
•Posting it to the Company’s share registrar’s office in
the supplied reply paid envelope; or
•Emailing it to corporateactions@computershare.co.nz.
The Company may however accept late Proxy Forms
received before the start of the Annual Meeting at its
sole discretion.
C. Postal voting
Shareholders who are entitled to attend and vote at
the Annual Meeting may cast a postal vote instead of
attending in person or appointing a proxy.
A Proxy/Voting Form is enclosed with this Notice of
Annual Meeting. If used to cast a postal vote, it must
be deposited with the Company no later than 48 hours
before the time for holding the Annual Meeting (i.e. on
or before 2.00pm on Monday 4 May 2026) in the same
manner as a Proxy Form. The Company may however
accept late Proxy/Voting Forms received before the start
of the Annual Meeting at its sole discretion.
Online appointment of proxies
and voting
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Annual
Meeting may appoint a proxy online or may vote
online on the website of the Company’s share registrar,
Computershare: www.investorvote.co.nz.
To appoint a proxy or vote online Shareholders will
be required to enter their CSN/Shareholder Number,
postcode/country of residence and the secure access
Control Number that appears on the front of their Proxy
Form. Proxies and votes submitted in this way must be
received on or before 2.00pm on Monday 4 May 2026.

Notes
1. Appointment of Proxy:
As a Shareholder you may attend the Annual Meeting and vote, or you may
appoint a proxy to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in your place. A
proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. You may, if you wish,
appoint “The Chair of the Meeting” as your proxy. The Chair intends to
vote any undirected proxies held by him in favour of the Resolution. Joint
holders should all sign the form if appointing a proxy. If you have ticked
the “PROXY DISCRETION” box and your named proxy does not attend the
Annual Meeting or you have not named a proxy, the Chair of the Annual
Meeting will act as your proxy. With respect to any other direction the proxy
form will take
effect as a postal vote. The Chair's voting intentions are set
out above. The Resolution is not subject to any restrictions on voting under
the NZX Listing Rules. If you are a company you may appoint a proxy or you
may appoint a representative to attend the Annual Meeting using this Form,
signed on your behalf by a person authorised by resolution of your Board. If
this Form has been signed under a power of attorney a signed
certificate of
non-revocation of the power of attorney must be provided to the Company
with this Form.
2. Postal Voting:
If you are unable or do not wish to attend the Annual Meeting or appoint
a proxy or representative, you may cast a postal vote by completing and
lodging this Form in accordance with the instructions below. Alternatively,
you may cast your vote online at
www.investorvote.co.nz.
3. Attending the meeting virtually:
If you propose to attend the meeting virtually, please read the Virtual
Meeting Guide available at
www.computershare.com/vm-guide-nz prior to
the meeting. You can participate in the meeting virtually through the web
platform https://meetnow.global/nz and entering the meeting. You will be
able to view presentations, ask questions and (unless you have appointed a
proxy) cast your vote from your own computer, mobile or similar device.
For any assistance with the process, please contact Computershare on
+64 9 488 8777 between 8.30am – 5.00pm Monday to Friday.
Shareholders can still attend the meeting online, even if they have
appointed a proxy (although they will not be able to vote if a proxy has
been appointed).
4. Resolution:
If you wish to instruct your proxy how to vote, or if voting by post, please do
so by placing a tick in the FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN box for the Resolution
upon which you wish to vote. If you wish the proxy to vote or abstain
from voting as he or she thinks
fit, you must place a tick in the PROXY’S
DISCRETION box. If you do not mark any box in respect of a Resolution,
in the case of a postal vote you will be deemed to have abstained from
voting on that Resolution and in the case of an appointment of a proxy
you will be deemed to have given your proxy discretion as to whether and
how to vote on that Resolution. If a vote is required on any other matter
at the Annual Meeting a proxy may vote or abstain from voting on that
matter on your behalf as he or she thinks
fit.
To be valid, this Form must be deposited with the Company, by:
• Depositing it at the Registered Office of the Company;
• Online at www.investorvote.co.nz;
• Delivering it to the Company’s share registrar’s office at Level 2, 159
Hurstmere Road, Takapuna, Auckland;
• Posting it to the Company’s share registrar’s office in the supplied reply
paid envelope; or
• Emailing it to corporateactions@computershare.co.nz.
In each case it must be received at least 48 hours before the time for
holding the Annual Meeting (that is, not later than 2.00pm on Monday
4 May 2026).
