Explanatory Notes
DIRECTOR ELECTIONS (Resolutions 1–2)

Martin Stearne and Rachel Winder are to retire at the 2026 annual meeting and offer themselves for re-election. The Board has determined that Martin Stearne and Rachel Winder, if elected, will each be an Independent Director (as defined in the NZX Listing Rules). Brief profiles for Martin Stearne and Rachel Winder are set out below.

Reasons for the Board’s Recommendations
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS (Resolutions 1–2)
The Board wishes to ensure that it possesses the appropriate blend of expertise, skills and experience, having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its business. The Board supports the election of Martin Stearne and Rachel Winder because the Board considers they have the expertise to contribute to the overall skillset required by the Board.
DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION (Resolution 3)
The Company currently has approval to pay a maximum of $853,000 per annum in aggregate to Directors for their remuneration as Directors. The Board proposes to reduce the maximum aggregate amount by $56,500 per annum to $796,500 per annum.
When the Directors’ fee pool was last approved by shareholders in 2024, there were six Directors on the Board. Since the last annual meeting, the number of Directors has reduced to five. The Board considers it appropriate to seek shareholder approval under Listing Rule 2.11.1(a) to reset the fee pool, to reflect a decrease in the size of the Board from six Directors to five Directors. The Board will determine the amount payable to each Director within the new fee pool.
While a reduction in the fee pool is proposed, following a review of Directors’ remuneration, the Board’s current intention is to increase the fees payable to individual Directors and for certain committee roles. The proposed Directors’ fee pool allocation is outlined in the table below.
| OFFICE | CURRENT REMUNERATION | PROPOSED REMUNERATION | AMOUNT OF INCREASE | NO. OF PERSONS HOLDING OFFICE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chair | $160,000 | $165,000 | $5,000 | 1 |
| Non-Executive Director | $97,500 | $100,000 | $2,500 | 4 |
| Chair of Audit & Risk Committee | $20,000 | $20,000 | $0 | 1 |
| Audit & Risk Committee Member | $12,000 | $12,000 | $0 | 2 |
| Chair of Remuneration and Nominations Committee | $12,500 | $17,500 | $5,000 | 1 |
| Remuneration and Nominations Committee Member | $6,000 | $10,000 | $4,000 | 3 |
| Chair of ESG Committee | $15,000 | $20,000 | $5,000 | 1 |
| ESG Committee Member | $10,000 | $10,000 | $0 | 2 |
| Pool available for additional responsibilities and one-off projects | $100,000 | $100,000 | $0 |
The new maximum aggregate amount of $796,500 per annum will continue to include a pool of $100,000 that provides flexibility to remunerate Directors who assume additional responsibilities (including one-off project work) from time to time beyond the scope of their usual responsibilities. No amounts have been paid to Directors from this pool during the year to 31 March 2026, and any unused portion is not carried forward to future years. It should also be noted that, in accordance with Listing Rule 2.11.3, the Board may increase the aggregate remuneration payable if an additional director were appointed. No decision has been made to appoint an additional Director at this time.
The Board’s rationale for increasing individual Director remuneration (including for certain committee roles) is to ensure that the Board is able to continue to attract and retain high-performing Directors with the right skills and experience for the Company’s requirements, having regard to:
- the legal and regulatory settings applicable to the Company and the demand on Directors’ time and an increase in their scope of responsibilities to effectively govern within these settings, particularly in recent times, with respect to sustainability and climate change; and
- Directors’ fees paid by comparable NZX-listed companies.
The Company engaged PwC to provide NZX-listed company benchmark data for the roles of Chairman, committee chairs, committee members and base non-executive directors. A summary of PwC’s report is available on Argosy’s website (www.argosy.co.nz).
The Board considers the individual Director and committee member fees outlined in the table above are appropriate to attract and retain Directors with the skills and experience required to govern the Company effectively.
Resolution 3: The Board recommends that you vote FOR resolution 3.
FIXING OF AUDITOR’S FEES AND EXPENSES (Resolution 4)
Deloitte is automatically re-appointed as the auditor of the Company under section 207T of the Companies Act 1993. Resolution 4 authorises the Board to fix the fees and expenses of Deloitte as the Company’s auditor.
Resolution 4: The Board recommends that you vote FOR resolution 4.
