IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Voting entitlements

Voting entitlements for the Annual Shareholders Meeting will be determined as at 2:00pm (New Zealand Standard Time) on Tuesday 29[th] August 2017. Registered ikeGPS shareholders at that time will be the only persons entitled to vote at the Annual Shareholders Meeting, and only the ikeGPS shares registered in those ikeGPS shareholders' names at that time may be voted at the Annual Meeting.

Voting in person

If you are entitled to vote and wish to do so in person, you should attend the Annual Shareholders Meeting. Please bring your Proxy Form with you to the meeting.

A corporation may appoint a person to attend the meeting as its representative in the same manner in which it would appoint a proxy.

Voting by proxy

An ikeGPS shareholder who is entitled to vote at the Annual Shareholders Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote instead of the shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder.

If you appoint a proxy you may either direct your proxy how to vote for you or you may give the proxy discretion to vote as he or she sees fit. If you wish to give your proxy discretion then you should make the appropriate election, either online or on the Proxy Form, to grant your proxy that discretion. You will be deemed to have given your proxy discretion if you do not make an election in relation to any of resolutions 1 to 3.

The Chairman of the Meeting or any other director is willing to act as proxy for any shareholder who appoints him or her for that purpose. If, in appointing your proxy, you do not name a person as your proxy (either online or in the Proxy Form), or your named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chairman of the Meeting will be your proxy and may vote only in accordance with your express direction. If you expressly appoint the Chairman of the meeting or any other director as your proxy and elect to give them discretion on how to vote on a resolution, they may exercise your vote even if they have an interest in the outcome of that resolution. The Chairman of the Meeting and the directors intend to vote all discretionary proxies in favour of resolutions 1 to 3.

A Proxy Form accompanies this Notice of Annual Meeting.

If you do not propose to attend the Annual Meeting but wish to be represented by proxy, you can appoint a proxy online by going to http://vote.linkmarketservices.com/IKE Alternatively, you can complete the Proxy Form and either:

  • Scan and Email your proxy to [email protected];

  • Return the Proxy Form by mail to Link Market Services, using the freepost envelope enclosed; or

  • Fax the Proxy Form to +64 (9) 375-5990.

The online proxy appointments must be lodged with, and the completed Proxy Forms received by, Link Market Services Limited no later than 2pm (New Zealand Standard Time), Tuesday 29[th] August 2017.

Where a Proxy Form is completed for a company, it must be signed by a duly authorised officer or attorney. Persons who sign on behalf of a company must be acting with the company’s express or implied authority.

Where a Proxy Form is signed by an attorney, a copy of the power of attorney under which it was signed, if not previously provided to Link Market Services Limited, together with a signed certificate of non-revocation of the power of attorney must accompany the Proxy Form.
