Explanatory Notes
All resolutions to be put to the meeting are discussed in the following Explanatory Notes.
All of the resolutions are proposed as ordinary resolutions and, to be passed, require approval by a simple majority of votes of shareholders who are
entitled to vote on the resolutions and who exercise their right to vote. All references in this Notice of Meeting to the “Listing Rules” are references to
the NZX Listing Rules dated 31 January 2025.
Election of Directors
2
Resolution 1:
Auditor
PwC is the current auditor of NZX. The Companies Act 1993 (Act) provides that a company’s auditor is automatically re-appointed unless
its shareholders resolve to appoint a replacement auditor, or there is another reason for the auditor not to be re-appointed. Further,
section 207S of the Act provides that an auditor’s fees and expenses must be fixed by the company, or in the manner that the company
determines at a shareholders’ meeting.
Shareholders are being asked to resolve that the Board is authorised to fix the fees and expenses of PwC for the 2026 financial year.
The Board unanimously supports resolution 1 and recommends that you vote in favour of it at the meeting.
Pursuant to Listing Rule 2.7.1, a director must not hold office (without re-election) past the third
annual meeting following the director’s appointment, or 3 years, whichever is longer.
Dame Paula Rebstock retires in accordance with Listing Rule 2.7.1 and offers herself for re-election.
Dame Paula was appointed as a director in February 2023.
She is a leading Auckland-based economist and company director, who was made a Dame
Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit in 2015 for services to the State. Dame Paula has
extensive professional experience in corporate and public services governance. She is a Director of
NZX-listed Vector, Bluecurrent Australia and Bluecurrent New Zealand, and also serves on unlisted
entities including Auckland One Rail, Chair of Asia Pacific Healthcare Group, and Chair of AIA
Sovereign Insurance New Zealand, among others. Dame Paula is a former Chair of the New Zealand
Commerce Commission, and the Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC); was Deputy Chair of
KiwiRail, and a Director of Auckland Transport.
Dame Paula is Chair of the Human Resources and Remuneration Committee, and also a member of
the Nomination Committee.
The Board (other than Dame Paula Rebstock) has determined that, in its view, Dame Paula is an
Independent Director (as defined in the Listing Rules).
The Board unanimously supports resolution 2 and recommends that you vote in favour of it at
the meeting.
Rachel Walsh also retires in accordance with Listing Rule 2.7.1 and offers herself for re-election.
Rachel joined the NZX Board in October 2022. She is an independent director on the Boards of
IAG New Zealand, Asteron Life (Chairing the Board Audit and Risk Committee), and Chartered
Accountants ANZ (Chairing the People and Remuneration Committee), and a member of the
External Reporting Advisory Panel (XRAP). A Fellow of Chartered Accountants ANZ and Chartered
Member of the Institute of Directors, she holds a Bachelor of Commerce from the University
of Auckland. Rachel’s executive career includes Group CFO of Datacom Group and Abano
Healthcare, with senior finance roles in Rank Group, and PwC. She has extensive experience across
financial services, technology, health care, private equity, and professional services, and is among a
select group of women who have served as CFOs of NZX-listed entities.
Rachel is Chair of the Clearing Committee and also a member of the Audit and Risk, Nominations
and Technology committees.
The NZX Corporate Governance Code commentary on factors to be considered when determining
director independence include circumstances where the director has close family ties or personal
relationships with anyone in the categories listed. The Board notes that Ms Walsh has a close
personal relationship with an employee of NZX’s current external audit firm (PwC).
The Board (other than Ms Walsh) considers that Ms Walsh remains independent on the basis that
the relevant person does not provide services to NZX and therefore the circumstances do not
result in a Disqualifying Relationship for the purposes of the Listing Rules.
The Board unanimously supports resolution 3 and recommends that you vote in favour of it at
the meeting.
Resolution 2:
Re-election of Dame Paula Rebstock as a Director of NZX
Resolution 3:
Re-election of Rachel Walsh as a Director of NZX
