IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
1. General information
1.1 This Offer Document has been prepared by Accordant
Group Limited (AGL) in connection with a 1.269 for 1
pro rata renounceable rights offer of New Shares and a
related Shortfall Facility (the Rights Offer).
1.2 The Rights Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders and
other eligible investors in New Zealand only pursuant
to the exclusion in clause 19 of schedule 1 of the New
Zealand Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 (the FMCA).
1.3 This Offer Document is not a product disclosure
statement or prospectus for the purposes of the FMCA
or any other law, has not been lodged with the FMA,
and does not contain all of the information that an
investor would find in a product disclosure statement
or prospectus or which may be required to make an
informed decision about the Rights Offer or AGL.
2. Further important information
2.1 The Rights Offer is conditional on Shareholder approval
and the Minimum Amount being raised. The Shareholder
approval is being sought at a Special Shareholders’
Meeting to be held online at 3.30 pm NZT on 16 April
2026 (the Special Shareholders’ Meeting).
2.2 The Notice of Special Shareholders’ Meeting (Notice
of Meeting), which was released on 30 March 2026,
contains important information about the Rights Offer
required for its approval by Shareholders, but also
important information about AGL and its business.
2.3 A copy of the Notice of Meeting and other important
information released on 30 March 2026 (including the
Investor Presentation), as well as other publicly available
information referred to in this Offer Document, are
available at www.nzx.com under the ticker code “AGL”.
2.4 The Notice of Meeting and Investor Presentation include
details of the rationale for the Rights Offer. They also
provide a trading update and explain in more detail the
expected impact of the Rights Offer, including a non-
exhaustive summary of certain key risks associated with
AGL and the Rights Offer.
2.5 You should read the Notice of Meeting and Investor
Presentation in full, as they contain important information
to assist you in making an investment decision in respect
of the Rights Offer. In particular, you should read and
consider paragraph 9 in Section 4 of the Notice of
Meeting (“Key Risks”) before making an investment
decision.
3. Additional information available under AGL’s
continuous disclosure obligations
3.1 AGL is subject to continuous disclosure obligations under
the NZX Listing Rules which require it to notify certain
material information to NZX. Market releases by AGL are
available at www.nzx.com under the ticker code “AGL”.
3.2 AGL recommends that you read its market releases
lodged with NZX, including its market announcements
(together with the materials attached to those
announcements) regarding:
a the Rights Offer released on 30 March 2026
(including the Investor Presentation accompanying the
announcement);
b the Notice of Meeting released on 30 March 2026;
and
c AGL’s most recent annual report for the financial year
ended 31 March 2025 released on 30 May 2025,
together with its half year results for the financial year
ending 31 March 2026 announcement released on 10
November 2025.
3.3 AGL may, during the period of the Rights Offer, make
additional releases to NZX. Shareholders should monitor
AGL’s market announcements during the period of the
Rights Offer. To the maximum extent permitted by law,
no release by AGL to NZX will permit an applicant to
withdraw any previously submitted Application without
AGL’s prior written consent.
4. Market risk
4.1 The market price for the shares in AGL may change
materially between the date the Rights Offer opens, the
date you apply for New Shares under the Rights Offer,
and the date on which the New Shares are allotted to you.
Accordingly:
a the price paid for New Shares under the Rights Offer
may be higher or lower than the price at which shares
in AGL are trading on the NZX Main Board at the time
New Shares are issued under the Rights Offer;
b the market price of shares in AGL following allotment
may be higher or lower than the Offer Price; and
c it is possible that up to or after the Allotment Date, you
may be able to buy shares in AGL at a lower price than
the Offer Price.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER4
4.2 Any changes in the market price of shares in AGL will not
affect the Offer Price.
If you have any doubts as to what you should do, please
consult your broker, financial, investment or other
professional adviser.
5. Withdrawal and date changes
5.1 Subject to compliance with all applicable laws, AGL
reserves the right at its absolute discretion to:
a withdraw all or any part of the Rights Offer and the
issue of New Shares under the Rights Offer; and/or
b alter any dates set out in this Offer Document.
5.2 AGL will withdraw the Rights Offer if Shareholder
approval for Resolution 1 is not obtained or the Minimum
Amount is not raised under the Rights Offer.
6. Forward looking statements
6.1 This Offer Document, the Notice of Meeting and the
Investor Presentation contain certain forward-looking
statements such as indications of, and guidance on,
future earnings and financial position and performance.
6.2 Forward-looking statements can generally be identified
by use of words such as ‘approximate’, ‘project’, ‘foresee’,
‘plan’, ‘target’, ‘seek’, ‘expect’, ‘aim’, ‘intend’, ‘anticipate’,
‘believe’, ‘estimate’, ‘may’, ‘should’, ‘will’, ‘objective’,
‘assume’, ‘guidance’, ‘outlook’ or similar expressions.
6.3 Forward-looking statements include statements
regarding the timetable, conduct and outcome of the
Rights Offer and the use of proceeds thereof, statements
about the plans, targets, objectives and strategies of AGL,
statements about the future performance of, and outlook
for, AGL’s business and statements regarding growth or
strategy. Any indications of, or guidance or outlook on,
future earnings or financial position or performance and
future distributions are also forward-looking statements.
6.4 All such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, significant uncertainties, judgements,
assumptions, contingencies, and other factors, many
of which are outside the control of AGL, which may
cause the actual results or performance of AGL to
be materially different from any future results or
performance expressed or implied by such forward-
looking statements. Deviations as to future results or
performance are both normal and to be expected.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future
performance.
6.5 Such forward-looking statements speak only as of
the date of this Offer Document. Except as required
by law or regulation (including the NZX Listing Rules),
AGL undertakes no obligation to provide any additional
information or update these forward-looking statements
for events or circumstances that occur subsequent to the
date of this Offer Document or to update or keep current
any of the information contained herein.
6.6 Any estimates, projections or outlook statements as to
events that may occur in the future (including projections
of revenue, expense, debt, net debt, cash, interest cover
and leverage ratios, net income and performance)
are based upon the best judgement of AGL from
the information available as of the date of this Offer
Document.
6.7 A number of factors could cause actual results or
performance to vary materially from the estimates,
projections or outlook statements, including the
performance of the New Zealand economy and the New
Zealand labour market which themselves are subject
to numerous factors and influences. Investors should
consider the forward-looking statements in this Offer
Document in light of those risks and disclosures (see
paragraph 9 of Section 4 of the Notice of Meeting).
6.8 Neither AGL nor any other person gives any
representation, assurance or guarantee that the
occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any
forward-looking statements in this Offer Document,
the Notice of Meeting or the Investor Presentation will
actually occur. You are cautioned against relying on any
such forward looking statements.
Investors are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance
on any forward-looking statements.

not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the

RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER7
IssuerAccordant Group Limited
The Rights OfferA pro-rata renounceable rights offer of 1.269 New Shares for every 1 Existing Share held on the
Record Date (the Rights Offer).
Those Rights not validly exercised by 5.00pm (NZT) on the Closing Date, including the Rights
attributable to Ineligible Shareholders which have not been validly exercised by the Closing Date,
will be available for Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in full, Approved Shortfall
Investors and, potentially, Related Parties, to apply for under the Shortfall Facility.
See below for further detail on the Shortfall Facility.
Opening Date for the Rights Offer22 April 2026
RightsEligible Shareholders have a right to subscribe for 1.269 New Shares for every 1 Existing Share
held (as at 7.00pm (NZT) on the Record Date at the Offer Price).
The number of Rights to which an Eligible Shareholder is entitled to be issued will, in the case of
fractions, be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
Eligible Shareholders may take up all or some or none of their Rights. Rights will be quoted on
the NZX Main Board so Eligible Shareholders may be able to sell all or some of their Rights on
the NZX Main Board between 17 April 2026 and 30 April 2026, if there is a buyer for those Rights.
You may also sell your Rights privately to a buyer you identify, in which case please contact the
Registrar to request the applicable renunciation form.
There is no guarantee there will be buyers for the Rights on NZX, and Eligible Shareholders
may, accordingly, be unable to sell some or all of their Rights. There is also no guarantee that
the Rights Offer will proceed to settlement as the Minimum Amount may not be raised. If you
purchase Rights, you acknowledge and accept this risk.
In this respect, it is noted that Eligible Shareholders applying for their full entitlement together
with any Approved Shortfall Investors may apply for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility
(see below under the heading “Shortfall Facility”). This may depress demand for Rights, even
though allocation under the Shortfall Facility is not guaranteed.
Eligible Shareholders do not pay for the Rights themselves. Eligible Shareholders will pay only for
the New Shares issued to them if they choose to take up all or some of their Rights.
The Rights Offer is a pro-rata offer. If you take up all of your Rights, your percentage holding in
AGL will not reduce as a result of the Rights Offer.
If you do not take up any of your Rights, or are an Ineligible Shareholder, your percentage holding
in AGL will reduce following completion of the Rights Offer. If you take up some but not all of
your Rights, your percentage holding in AGL may reduce depending on participation in the Rights
Offer.
Information regarding the dilutionary impact of the Rights Offer, including worked examples, is
set out in paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2 of Section 4 of the Notice of Meeting under the subheading
“Dilutionary Impact”.
Your Rights may have value. If you do nothing, your Rights will lapse and you will not be able to
subscribe for any New Shares and will not realise any value for your Rights.
Exercising Rights purchasedRights purchased on the NZX Main Board or otherwise may only be exercised by purchasers that
meet eligibility requirements. In particular, Rights may not be exercised by purchasers that are in
the United States or who are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States (to
the extent such persons are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States).
Potential purchasers of Rights should familiarise themselves with the requirements for exercise,
which are set out in this Offer Document.
Offer Price$0.15 per New Share.
PART 1
KEY DETAILS
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER8
Shortfall FacilityShortfall Shares will be available for subscription under the Shortfall Facility, and may be applied
for by:
• Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in full;
• Approved Shortfall Investors, being persons approved by AGL and from whom AGL seeks
or approves investment in respect of Shortfall Shares to improve the likelihood that the
full amount and at least the Minimum Amount is raised given that the Rights Offer is not
underwritten; and
• if there are Shortfall Shares remaining after satisfying Applications from the above
persons, Related Parties, but only if needed to reach the Minimum Amount and thereafter
accommodate Committed Related Party Subscription and, if required for their participation,
approval of Shareholders has been obtained as set out in the Notice of Meeting. The Hull
Family Trust is a Related Party and may subscribe for Shortfall Shares, but will only be
allocated such Shortfall Shares if any remain after allocation to other Related Parties and
if needed to reach the Minimum Amount. The theoretical maximum amount that Related
Parties could be allocated is approximately $5.1m worth of New Shares. However, outside
the Hull Family Trust’s commitment, AGL has commitments for approximately $110,000
from Related Parties under the Shortfall Facility, being the Committed Related Party
Subscription from the CEO and CFO.
Any Shortfall Shares applied for and allocated under the Shortfall Facility will be issued at the
Offer Price.
The Board retains discretion on the allocation and scaling of New Shares under the Shortfall
Facility in accordance with the terms of this Offer Document. There is no assurance that any
applicant for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility will be allocated any Shortfall Shares or
the number of Shortfall Shares for which it has applied.
Interested persons (including those who acquire Rights on the NZX Main Board or otherwise and
those who are not Eligible Shareholders on the Record Date) can enquire about becoming an
Approved Shortfall Investor by contacting the Registrar at +64 9 375 5998 or applications.nz@
cm.mpms.mufg.com.
Participation of Hull Family TrustAGL has received a confirmation from Simon Alexander Hull and David John Graeme Cox as
trustees for the Hull Family Trust, under which the Hull Family Trust has agreed to subscribe for
New Shares under the Rights Offer for a subscription amount of $3,250,000 (which is less than
the Hull Family Trust’s pro rata entitlement), being 21,666,667 New Shares.
The Shareholder approvals being sought enable this subscription where it may otherwise be
restricted by law, but also seek to give AGL flexibility to engage with the Hull Family Trust for
further funds, if needed to reach the Minimum Amount. Such further funds may be obtained by
the Hull Family Trust applying up to its pro-rata entitlement and/or under the Shortfall Facility as
set out above. However, the Hull Family Trust has given no commitment or indication that it will
subscribe for New Shares above its existing $3.25 million commitment.
See the Notice of Meeting for more detail on the Shareholder approval and the potential
shareholding of the Hull Family Trust as a result of the Rights Offer.
Shareholder Approval ConditionThe Rights Offer is conditional on approval by Shareholders by way of ordinary resolution under
Rule 7(d) of the Takeovers Code, as the trustees of the Hull Family Trust hold more than 20%
of the voting rights in AGL and their participation in the Rights Offer may increase their holding
depending on the participation of the Hull Family Trust and other investors (Resolution 1).
Approval of Shareholders is also being sought under NZX Listing Rule 5.2.1, as the Shortfall
Facility may be a “Material Transaction” depending on the value of Shortfall Shares on offer
under it, and Related Parties may potentially participate in the Shortfall Facility if needed to reach
the Minimum Amount and thereafter to accommodate Committed Related Party Subscription.
However, the Rights Offer is not conditional on this resolution passing. If this resolution is not
passed, Related Parties may not be able to participate in the Shortfall Facility if not permitted to
do so under the NZX Listing Rules, which may result in the Minimum Amount not being raised, as
further explained in the Notice of Meeting.
If Shareholder approval is not obtained for Resolution 1:
• AGL will withdraw the Rights Offer, and no New Shares will be issued under it; and
• any application monies received prior to the date of the Special Shareholders’ Meeting
will be refunded (without interest) within five Business Days of the Special Shareholders’
Meeting.
More information on why Shareholder approval is required is set out in the Notice of Meeting
released on 30 March 2026.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER9
Director ParticipationSimon Bennett and Nick Simcock hold shares in AGL (directly or indirectly) and so will be entitled
to participate in the Rights Offer. They have indicated to AGL that they will subscribe for their
pro-rata entitlement.
See above for participation by the Hull Family Trust (of which Simon Hull is a trustee).
Directors are also Related Parties and may potentially also apply for Shortfall Shares under the
Shortfall Facility if needed to reach the Minimum Amount.
Employee share scheme participantsHolders of restricted shares under AGL’s employee share scheme are entitled to participate in
the Rights Offer in the same manner as other Eligible Shareholders, as if their restricted shares
were ordinary shares in AGL. Accordingly, for the purposes of this Offer Document and NZX
Listing Rule 4.4.1(b), holders of restricted shares will be treated as holding the equivalent number
of ordinary shares on the Record Date with the Offer Document and their entitlement to Rights
applying accordingly.
Existing Shares currently on issue35,125,542 Existing Shares, comprising 33,918,733 ordinary shares, 406,809 ordinary shares
held as treasury stock, and 800,000 restricted shares.

Rights Offer sizeThe maximum amount to be raised under the Rights Offer is up to approximately $6.7 million.

respect of those Rights.

separate Shortfall Acceptance Form as directed by AGL.

PART 3
ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN BY
ELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERS
A. Available actions in respect of your Rights
If you are an Eligible Shareholder, you may take the following
actions:
• take up all or some of your Rights; or
• take up all of your Rights and apply for Shortfall Shares
under the Shortfall Facility and/or by purchasing additional
Rights on the NZX Main Board or otherwise; or
• sell all or some of your Rights on the NZX Main Board or
otherwise, if there is a buyer for those Rights; or
• take up some of your Rights, and sell all or some of the
remaining balance on the NZX Main Board or otherwise, if
there is a buyer for those Rights; or
• do nothing with all or some of your Rights.
The Rights Offer is a pro-rata offer to Eligible Shareholders. If
you take up all of your Rights, your percentage holding in AGL
will not reduce as a result of the Rights Offer. If you take up
some but not all of your Rights, your percentage holding in AGL
may reduce depending on participation in the Rights Offer. If
you are an Eligible Shareholder and you do not take up any of
your Rights or are an Ineligible Shareholder, your shareholding
in AGL will be diluted as a result of the Rights Offer.
AGL will make reasonable arrangements and attempts to sell
the Rights attributable to Ineligible Shareholders prior to the
Closing Date. Any proceeds (less transaction costs) will be paid
to Ineligible Shareholders on a pro rata basis.
Information regarding the dilutionary impact of the Rights Offer
including worked examples, is set out in paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2
of Section 4 of the Notice of Meeting under the subheading
“Dilutionary Impact”.

online; or

Rights Offer.

the Offer Price.
If you are eligible, you can participate in the Shortfall Facility
by applying for the dollar amount of Shortfall Shares you wish
to subscribe for where provided for in the online application
process or on the Acceptance Form.
Shortfall Shares will be allocated in accordance with the
process described in paragraph 15 of Part 4: Terms of the
Rights Offer.
You might not be allocated all or any of the Shortfall Shares you
apply for. You will not be allocated more Shortfall Shares than
the number you applied and paid for.
Purchase additional Rights, or sell your Rights
The Rights are renounceable. This means Eligible Shareholders
who do not wish to take up all or some of their Rights may be
able to sell those Rights they have not taken up, if there is a
buyer for those Rights. However, please read paragraph 13 of
Part 4: Terms of the Rights Offer, for important information on
the sale and purchase of Rights.
If you wish to sell all or some of your Rights, this can be
effected on the NZX Main Board by instructing an NZX Firm
to sell all or some of your Rights. You will need to provide
your Authorisation Code (FIN) and your Common Shareholder
Number (CSN) to the NZX Firm who you are instructing to sell
your Rights. You may be required to pay brokerage in respect of
that sale.
You may purchase additional Rights through an NZX Firm or
any other channel approved by NZX. Trading of Rights will
commence on the NZX Main Board under the code AGLRA on
17 April 2026 and will end at the close of trading on 30 April
2026. You may be able to sell your Rights (if there is a buyer),
or purchase additional Rights, on the NZX Main Board between
these dates. Alternatively, may also sell your Rights privately to a
buyer you identify, in which case please contact the Registrar to
request the applicable renunciation form.
Do nothing
If you do nothing, your Rights will lapse. You will not be able to
subscribe for any New Shares and your holdings will be diluted
by the issue of New Shares under the Rights Offer.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER12
If you choose not to take up any of your Rights, any New Shares
attributable to your Unexercised Rights will be available for
subscription as part of the Shortfall Facility. You will not receive
value for any Unexercised Rights that result in New Shares
being issued to another person pursuant to the
Shortfall Facility.
B. Applying for New Shares
Applications may be made by Eligible Shareholders online at
https://accordant.rightsoffer.co.nz from 22 April 2026 without
the need to complete a physical Acceptance Form.
To apply online, you will be required to enter your CSN/Holder
number which you hold your Existing Shares under.
Alternatively, Eligible Shareholders may also deliver a
completed Acceptance Form (either by email, mail or delivery)
to the Registrar together with payment. Applications must be
received by 5.00pm (NZT) on the Closing Date (6 May 2026,
unless extended).
If you are a Custodian (or you hold your Existing Shares through
a Custodian), please see paragraph 16.1 of Part 4: Terms of the
Rights Offer.
Payment
You must pay for your New Shares by way of direct debit.
If you are a Custodian (or you hold your Existing Shares through
a Custodian), please see paragraph 16.1 of Part 4: Terms of the
Rights Offer.
Cheques will not be accepted. Payment must be made for the
dollar amount of any New Shares taken up under your Rights
and (if you are taking up your Rights in full) the dollar amount
of Shortfall Shares that you are applying for under the Shortfall
Facility (if any).
If any scaling or allocation decision is applied to the application
for Shortfall Shares in the Shortfall Facility or all or part of
your Application for Shortfall Shares is rejected, a refund of
any extra application monies will be processed within five
Business Days of the Allotment Date. Refunds will not be paid
for any difference arising solely due to rounding or where the
aggregate amount of the refund payable to you is less than
$5.00.
More detail on payment options is included in the Offer
Website and the Acceptance Form.

RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER13
PART 4
TERMS OF THE
RIGHTS OFFER
1. The Offer
1.1 The Rights Offer is an offer of New Shares to Eligible
Shareholders under a pro rata renounceable rights
offer, including the ability for certain persons to apply
for Shortfall Shares under a Shortfall Facility. Under the
Rights Offer, Eligible Shareholders have a renounceable
right to subscribe for 1.269 New Shares for every 1
Existing Share (held at 7.00pm (NZT) on the Record Date)
at the Offer Price. The number of Rights to which an
Eligible Shareholder is entitled to be issued will, in the
case of fractions, be rounded down to the nearest whole
number.
1.2 The Rights will be quoted on the NZX Main Board. Eligible
Shareholders may take up all or some or none of their
Rights. Eligible Shareholders may also sell all or some
of their Rights on the NZX Main Board between 17 April
2026 and 30 April 2026 or otherwise, if there is a buyer
for those Rights. Further details are set out under “Rights
trading” below.
1.3 Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in full may
also apply for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility.
Further details are set out under “Shortfall Facility” below.
1.4 The percentage shareholding of Eligible Shareholders
who do not exercise, or sell, their Rights, and Ineligible
Shareholders, will be diluted as a result of the
Rights Offer.
1.5 Information regarding the dilutionary impact of the Rights
Offer including worked examples, is set out in paragraphs
3.1 and 3.2 of Section 4 of the Notice of Meeting under

refunded. Interest earned on the application monies will
be for the benefit, and remain the property, of AGL and

Shares takes place. The banking of application monies
does not constitute confirmation of the allotment of any
New Shares or the acceptance of an Application.
4.4 Any refund of application monies will be made without
interest and within five Business Days following the
Allotment Date or the date that the decision not to
proceed with the Rights Offer is made (as the case may
be). Refunds will not be paid for any difference arising

the refund payable to the relevant applicant is less than
$5.00.
5. Decision to participate
5.1 The information in this Offer Document does not

Shares, you must make your own assessment of the

regard to publicly available information (including the

6.9 AGL may reject any Application in full or in part in order to

7. Purpose of the Rights Offer
7.1 AGL intends that the proceeds raised from the Rights
Offer will be applied to repay a portion of AGL’s existing
debt, as set out in further detail in the Notice of Meeting
and the Investor Presentation.
8. Director Participation
8.1 Simon Bennett and Nick Simcock hold shares in AGL
(directly or indirectly) and so will be entitled to participate
in the Rights Offer. They have indicated to AGL that they
will subscribe for their pro-rata entitlement.
8.2 Directors are Related Parties and may potentially also
apply for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility if
needed to reach the Minimum Amount – see below under
“Shortfall Facility”.
8.3 See Part 1: Key Details above for details of participation
by the Hull Family Trust (of which Simon Hull is a trustee).
9. Employee share scheme participants
9.1 Holders of restricted shares under AGL’s employee share
scheme are entitled to participate in the Rights Offer
in the same manner as other Eligible Shareholders, as
if their restricted shares were ordinary shares in AGL.
Accordingly, for the purposes of this Offer Document and
NZX Listing Rule 4.4.1(b), holders of restricted shares will
be treated as holding the equivalent number of ordinary
shares on the Record Date with the Offer Document and
their entitlement to Rights applying accordingly.
9.2 In the event of any ambiguity as to the application of the
terms of the Rights Offer to such persons, AGL’s decision
on the matter shall be final, subject to compliance with all
applicable laws and the NZX Listing Rules.
10. New Shares
10.1 New Shares issued under the Rights Offer will rank
equally with, and have the same voting rights, dividend
rights and other entitlements as, existing ordinary shares
in AGL quoted on NZX Main Board.
10.2 AGL has currently suspended dividends. The payment of
dividends is dependent on AGL’s financial performance
(including medium-term financial outlook for earnings,
gearing targets, and capital expenditure levels) and the
authorisation of the Board, having considered all relevant
factors. AGL will also need to agree with its bank, ASB
Bank Limited, any dividend payment while the EBITDA
to net debt ratio is greater than 2.5x. See the Notice of
Meeting for further details at paragraph 4 of Section 4.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER15
10.3 Applicants for New Shares will be bound by the terms of
the Rights Offer set out in this Offer Document and AGL’s
constitution on allotment of New Shares.
11. Dividend Policy
11.1 AGL’s current dividend policy, which is subject to all
relevant factors at the time and compliance with the
Companies Act 1993, including working capital and
growth, is that the annual dividend paid to shareholders
will be between 70% and 85% of Underlying Earnings
(Net Profit after Tax plus amortisation of Intangibles).
11.2 AGL’s dividend policy is subject to change, by the Board,
at any time. As noted in paragraph 10.2, dividends are
currently suspended and AGL needs to agree with its
bank, ASB Bank Limited, any dividend payment while the
EBITDA to net debt ratio is greater than 2.5x.
12. Quotation
12.1 It is a term of the Rights Offer that AGL will take any
necessary steps to ensure that the New Shares are,
immediately after issue, quoted on the NZX Main Board.
12.2 The New Shares will be quoted on the NZX Main Board.
The NZX Main Board is a licensed market operated by
NZX (which is a licensed market operator regulated
under the FMCA). However, NZX does not accept any
responsibility for any statement in this Offer Document.
The fact that NZX may approve the New Shares for
quotation is not to be taken in any way as an indication of
the merits of AGL.
12.3 You cannot trade in any New Shares issued to you
pursuant to the Rights Offer, either as principal or agent,
until quotation of the New Shares on the NZX Main Board
in accordance with the NZX Listing Rules. AGL expects
that the New Shares will commence trading on the NZX
Main Board on the Allotment Date.
13. Rights Trading
13.1 An application has been made for permission to
quote the Rights on the NZX Main Board and all NZX
requirements have been duly complied with. However,
NZX accepts no responsibility for any statement in this
Offer Document.
13.2 Eligible Shareholders may be able to sell all or some of
their Rights on the NZX Main Board between 17 April 2026
and 30 April 2026, if there is a buyer for those Rights. You
may also sell your Rights privately to a buyer you identify,
in which case please contact the Registrar to request
the applicable renunciation form. There is no guarantee
there will be buyers for the Rights on NZX, and Eligible
Shareholders may, accordingly, be unable to sell some
or all of their Rights. There is also no guarantee that the
Rights Offer will proceed to settlement as the Minimum
Amount may not be raised. If you purchase Rights, you
acknowledge and accept this risk.
13.3 In this respect, it is noted that Eligible Shareholders
applying for their full entitlement together with any
Approved Shortfall Investors may apply for Shortfall
Shares under the Shortfall Facility (see below under the
heading “Shortfall Facility”). This may depress demand for
Rights, even though allocation under the Shortfall Facility
is not guaranteed.
13.4 Investors who acquire Rights on the NZX Main Board or
otherwise will, by acquiring those Rights, and applying to
take up all or part of those Rights, be deemed to agree to
make and be subject to the representations, declarations,
warranties and agreements in the Acceptance Form or
Offer Website (as applicable) and in paragraph 21 of Part
4 of this Offer Document (“Significance of sending in an
Application / declarations, representations, warranties
and agreements”).
13.5 The right to make an Application for Shortfall Shares
under the Shortfall Facility is available only to Eligible
Shareholders who take up their Rights in full, Approved
Shortfall Investors and, in certain circumstances, Related
Parties. Investors who acquire Rights on the NZX Main
Board or otherwise and are not Eligible Shareholders
on the Record Date will only be entitled to apply for
Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility to the extent
they are an Approved Shortfall Investor. Such persons
may enquire about becoming an Approved Shortfall
Investor by contacting the Registrar at +64 9 375 5998 or
applications.nz@cm.mpms.mufg.com. Merely acquiring
Rights, on the NZX Main Board or otherwise, will not result
in an investor becoming an Approved Shortfall Investor.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER16
13.6 Investors should note that if they purchase Rights in a
transaction on the NZX Main Board or otherwise, in order
to take up or exercise those Rights and subscribe for New
Shares they:
a must be:
i located in or have a registered address in New
Zealand (including, for the avoidance of doubt,
Eligible Shareholders); or
ii any other person to whom AGL considers an offer
of Rights or New Shares may be made without the
need for a product disclosure statement, lodged
prospectus or other formality (other than a formality
with which AGL is willing to comply); and
b must not be in the United States or acting for the
account or benefit of a person in the United States
(to the extent such persons are acting for the account
or benefit of persons in the United States) in respect
of the purchase or exercise of such Rights and the
subscription for New Shares.
The Rights may not be purchased, traded, taken up or
exercised by any person in the United States or by any
person acting for the account or benefit of a person in
the United States (to the extent such persons are acting
for the account or benefit of persons in the United
States).
13.7 If an investor purchases Rights in a transaction on the
NZX Main Board or otherwise and does not satisfy the
above conditions, they will not be entitled to exercise
their Rights and subscribe for New Shares. It is the
responsibility of such purchasers of Rights to inform
themselves of the eligibility criteria to exercise the Rights.
If such purchasers hold Rights after the end of the Rights
trading period and do not meet the eligibility criteria, they
will not be able to exercise the Rights. In the event that
such holders are not able to exercise their Rights, those
Rights will be sold into the Shortfall Facility and holders
will receive no value for them.
14. Security transaction statements
14.1 Security transaction statements for New Shares allotted
under the Rights Offer will be issued and mailed as
soon as practicable after the Allotment Date. Applicants
under the Rights Offer should ascertain their allocation
before trading in the New Shares. Applicants can do so
by contacting the Registrar, whose contact details are set
out in Part 6: Directory.
14.2 Investors selling New Shares prior to receiving a security
transaction statement do so at their own risk. AGL, its
affiliates and the Registrar, and each of their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents or advisers, do not
accept any liability or responsibility should any person
attempt to sell or otherwise deal with New Shares before
the security transaction statement showing the number
of New Shares allotted to the investor is received by the
investor.
15. Shortfall facility
15.1 The Shortfall Facility is how Shortfall Shares attributable
to Unexercised Rights will be allocated and made
available for subscription.
15.2 There are three groups of persons who are eligible to
subscribe for Shortfall Shares:
a Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in full;
b Approved Shortfall Investors, being persons approved
by AGL and from whom AGL has sought or approved
investment in respect of Shortfall Shares to improve
the likelihood that the full amount and at least the
Minimum Amount is raised given that the Rights Offer
is not underwritten; and
c if there are Shortfall Shares remaining after satisfying
Applications from the above persons, Related Parties,
but only if needed to reach the Minimum Amount and
thereafter to accommodate Committed Related Party
Subscription, and, if required for their participation,
approval of Shareholders under NZX Listing Rule
5.2.1 has been obtained as set out in the Notice of
Meeting. The Hull Family Trust is a Related Party and
may subscribe for Shortfall Shares, but will only be
allocated such Shortfall Shares if any remain after
allocation to other Related Parties and if needed to
reach the Minimum Amount. Shortfall Shares will be
used to satisfy Committed Related Party Subscription
if any remain and even if to do so would result in the
Related Parties collectively subscribing for more than
the Minimum Amount. The Committed Related Party
Subscription Amount is approximately $110,000,
being commitments from the CEO and CFO.
15.3 Persons who are not an Eligible Shareholder (including
those who acquire Rights on the NZX Main Board or
otherwise) and wish to enquire about subscribing for
Shortfall Shares as an Approved Shortfall Investor, please
contact the Registrar at +64 9 375 5998 or applications.
nz@cm.mpms.mufg.com.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER17
15.4 Despite the above eligibility, AGL reserves the right to
determine who may participate in the Shortfall Facility
and may decline, scale or otherwise allocate between
Applications for Shortfall Shares by any person under the
Shortfall Facility.
15.5 For the avoidance of doubt, at the Board’s discretion
Shortfall Shares may be offered to, and subscribed for
by, persons outside New Zealand whom AGL considers
an offer of Rights or New Shares may be made without
the need for a product disclosure statement, lodged
prospectus or other formality (other than a formality with
which AGL is willing to comply).
Shortfall Facility application process for Eligible Shareholders
15.6 Eligible Shareholders who take up their Rights in full may
apply for Shortfall Shares at the Offer Price pursuant to
the Shortfall Facility:
a as directed via the online acceptance at
https://accordant.rightsoffer.co.nz;
b as directed on the Acceptance Form; or
c in the case of Custodians, as set out in paragraph 16 of
this Part 4: Terms of the Rights Offer.
15.7 AGL will disregard applications for Shortfall Shares made
by Ineligible Shareholders (other than Approved Shortfall
Investors) or Eligible Shareholders (other than Related
Parties) who do not exercise their Rights in full.
Shortfall Facility application process for Approved Shortfall
Investors and Related Parties
15.8 Approved Shortfall Investors and Related Parties may
apply for Shortfall Shares at the Offer Price pursuant to
the Shortfall Facility as directed by AGL on a separate
Shortfall Acceptance Form. For the avoidance of doubt,
Shortfall Acceptance Forms may be accepted after the
Closing Date by AGL at its discretion.
15.9 By applying to take up Shortfall Shares, Approved
Shortfall Investors and Related Parties will be deemed
to agree to make and be subject to the representations,
declarations, warranties and agreements in the Shortfall
Acceptance Form and in paragraph 21 of Part 4 of
this Offer Document (“Significance of sending in an
Application / declarations, representations, warranties
and agreements”).
Allocations policy and scaling
15.10 AGL will determine allocations and any necessary scaling
of Applications for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall
Facility in accordance with the following principles:
a the primary goal is to raise the full amount sought
under the Rights Offer;
b allocations of Shortfall Shares to Eligible Shareholders
and Approved Shortfall Investors will be determined
by AGL in its discretion in a manner which is in the
interests of AGL having regard to a number of factors
including the size of applications received and the
opportunity to introduce new institutional investors
to AGL;
c if applications for Shortfall Shares are to be scaled as
between all or a group of Eligible Shareholders and, if
applicable, Approved Shortfall Investors, it will be on a
pro-rata basis in proportion to their shareholdings on
the Record Date, subject to all applicable laws; and
d as noted above, Related Parties will only be allocated
the Shortfall Shares for which they apply if any
remain after allocation of Shortfall Shares to Eligible
Shareholders and Approved Shortfall Investors and if
needed to reach the Minimum Amount and thereafter
accommodate Committed Related Party Subscription.
To the extent scaling is required in respect of
Related Parties, it will be on a pro-rata basis to their
Applications. The Hull Family Trust is a Related Party
and may subscribe for Shortfall Shares, but will only
be allocated such Shortfall Shares if any remain after
allocation to other Related Parties and if needed to
reach the Minimum Amount. To the extent that Related
Parties are Eligible Shareholders they may also apply
for Shortfall Shares in that capacity if they take up their
Rights in full (per 15.2(a) above), but in being allocated
any Shortfall Shares they will be treated as Related
Parties under 15.2(c).
15.11 AGL’s decision on allocations and scaling will be final.
15.12 There is no assurance that any applicant for Shortfall
Shares under the Shortfall Facility will be allocated
any Shortfall Shares or the number of Shortfall Shares
for which it has applied. Your Application may also be
reduced or declined in accordance with the terms of this
Offer Document.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER18
15.13 No applicant for Shortfall Shares will be allocated more
Shortfall Shares than the number for which they applied
and paid.
15.14 If Applications are scaled, or the Shortfall Shares
allocated to other persons, persons that apply for
Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Facility may not
receive Shortfall Shares in respect of any or all of their
application monies.
15.15 Any refunds of application monies due to scaling of
Applications, allocation of Shortall Shares or Applications
not being accepted under the Shortfall Facility will be
made within five Business Days following the Allotment
Date (without interest). Refunds will not be paid for any
difference arising solely due to rounding or where the
aggregate amount of the refund payable to an applicant
is less than $5.00.
16. Custodians
16.1 In order to participate in the Rights Offer on behalf of one
or more beneficial owners, Custodians must provide the
following information by email to the Registrar and make
payment by way of electronic funds transfer:
a the number of Participating Beneficiaries (as defined
below) and their names and addresses;
b in respect of each of the Participating Beneficiaries,
the number of Existing Shares that the Participating
Beneficiary holds and the number and dollar amount
of Rights, as well as the dollar amount of any Shortfall
Shares in the Shortfall Facility, that the Participating
Beneficiary has instructed the Custodian, either
directly or indirectly through a Downstream Custodian
(as defined below), to apply for on behalf of that
Participating Beneficiary;
c where the Custodian holds Existing Shares on behalf
of a Participating Beneficiary indirectly, through one or
more Downstream Custodians, the name and address
of each Downstream Custodian; and
d an acknowledgement that the certifications described
in paragraphs 16.2, 21.1 and 21.2 of this Part 4: Terms of
the Rights Offer are deemed to have been provided
to AGL.
16.2 If a Custodian applies in the manner described above
to purchase New Shares on behalf of one or more
beneficial owners, the Custodian will be deemed to have
certified to AGL that:
a the Custodian holds Existing Shares on behalf of:
i one or more other persons that are not Custodians
(who would be Eligible Shareholders if they held
Existing Shares directly); and/or
ii another Custodian (Downstream Custodian) that
holds beneficial interests in Existing Shares on
behalf of one or more other persons to which those
interests relate (who would be Eligible Shareholders
if they held Existing Shares directly), on the Record
Date,
(each a Participating Beneficiary) who have
subsequently instructed the Custodian, and/or the
Downstream Custodian, to participate in the Rights
Offer on their behalf;
b the information set out in the email required to be
provided to the Registrar under paragraph 16.1 of this
Part 4: Terms of the Rights Offer is true and accurate;
c a copy of this Offer Document was given to each
Participating Beneficiary; and
d the owner on whose behalf the Custodian is
submitting an Application is not making an Application
as an Eligible Shareholder under the Rights Offer, and
no other Custodian is submitting an Application under
the Rights Offer for that beneficial owner.
16.3 Custodians may not distribute any part of this Offer
Document to any person in the United States or any other
country outside New Zealand, and may not participate in
the Rights Offer on behalf of any beneficial owner who is
located in the United States or any other country outside
New Zealand, unless authorised to do so by AGL in its
sole discretion.
16.4 In particular, Custodians who hold Existing Shares on
behalf of persons in the United States, or who are acting
for the account or benefit of persons in the United States
(to the extent such persons are acting for the account or
benefit of persons in the United States), are not eligible to
participate in the Rights Offer on behalf of those persons,
and may not acquire Rights or take up New Shares on
behalf of, or send any documents relating to the Rights
Offer to, any person in the United States.
RENOUNCEABLE RIGHTS OFFER19
16.5 AGL is not required to determine whether or not any
registered holder is acting as a Custodian, or the identity
or residence of any beneficial owners of Existing Shares.
Where any holder is acting as a Custodian for a foreign
person, that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary,
will need to assess whether indirect participation by
the beneficiary in the Rights Offer is compatible with
applicable foreign laws. Eligible Shareholders who are
Custodians are therefore advised to seek independent
advice as to how to proceed. For the avoidance of doubt,
Custodians are responsible for determining whether an
underlying beneficial holder of Existing Shares for whom
you act as Custodian is an Eligible Shareholder (were they
to hold Existing Shares directly).
16.6 If you hold your Existing Shares through a Custodian
(and would be an Eligible Shareholder if you held such
shares directly), please provide your Custodian with your
instructions so that they may apply on your behalf in
accordance with the information above.
17. Overseas Shareholders
17.1 The Rights Offer is open only to Eligible Shareholders
and other eligible investors, as noted in this Offer
Document. The Rights Offer is not open to Shareholders
in jurisdictions other than New Zealand as AGL considers
that it is unduly onerous and unreasonable for AGL to
make the Rights Offer into those jurisdictions having
regard to the number of securities held by Ineligible
Shareholders, the number and value of New Shares
that they would be offered and the costs of complying
with the legal and regulatory requirements which would
apply to an offer of securities to Ineligible Shareholders
in those places. AGL and its affiliates and related
bodies corporate, and each of their directors, partners,
employees, advisers and agents, disclaim any liability
