Explanatory Notes
- Mr Blair Bryant was appointed to the Board in April 2017. He was appointed by the Board under clause 26.2 of the Company's Constitution to fill a casual vacancy to hold office until the next Annual General Meeting of the Company at which time he would be required to step down (although he would be eligible for re-election). Mr Bryant was also appointed Chairman of the Board. (i)
- Shareholders will be aware of the recent media commentary in New Zealand relating to Mr Bryant. The Company has conducted its own internal investigation and determined that Mr Bryant made an inaccurate declaration to the Company prior to his appointment as a Director. The Board consequently resolved that Mr Bryant must step down from his role as Chairman and a new Chairman (Mr Russell Yardley) was appointed. (ii)
- The Board now asks the Shareholders to consider whether to pass a resolution to remove Mr Bryant as a Director of the Company with immediate effect. Section 156 of the Companies Act 1993 (New Zealand) provides that, subject to the constitution of a company, a director of the company may be removed from office by ordinary resolution passed at a meeting called for the purpose or for purposes that include the removal of the director. Accordingly, the resolution must be approved by an ordinary resolution of Shareholders. (iii)

Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite the item of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain as they choose (to the extent permitted by law). If you mark more than one box on the item your vote will be invalid on the item.
Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of securities you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. The sum of the votes cast must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.
Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of securities for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. When appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each in Step 1 overleaf.
A proxy need not be a securityholder of the Company.
