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

the NZX Listing Rules dated 31 January 2025.

Election of Directors

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 2025 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.

Elaine Campbell retires in accordance with Listing Rule 2.7.1 and offers

herself for re-election.

Elaine was appointed as a director in February 2019. She was last

presented for re-election in 2022.

Elaine has more than 20 years’ executive experience, primarily in

financial and capital markets, and the IT and telecommunications

industry. Elaine is the Chief Legal, Governance and External Relations

Officer at NZX-listed SkyCity. Immediately prior to this role, she was on

the executive team at NZX-listed Chorus, most recently as the Executive

GM of Fibre Access and prior to that, as the Chief Corporate Officer

and General Counsel. Elaine spent five years at the Financial Markets

Authority as Director of Compliance before joining AMP as an executive

director and General Counsel. Elaine was on the executive team at NZX

from 2002 to 2008, where Elaine led the demutualisation and listing

of NZX and was responsible for the insourcing of regulatory functions,

along with chairing Smart. She has previously worked in the UK and USA

for multinational Sun Microsystems.

Elaine is a member of the NZX Human Resources & Remuneration

Committee, and is also a director of NZX’s subsidiary NZX Regulation

Limited.

The Board has determined that, in its view, Elaine Campbell 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.

Peter Jessup also retires in accordance with Listing Rule 2.7.1 and offers

himself for re-election. Peter joined the NZX Board in January 2022,

following his appointment to the Technology Committee in April 2021.

He brings more than 35 years’ financial markets IT experience – including

trading, surveillance, clearing, depository and settlement systems. Peter

is a capital markets consultant with Accenture prior to which he led the

Market Infrastructure Business Development team at LSEG and was

Senior Vice President at Nasdaq’s Global Technology Services group.

In Peter’s earlier career he worked for NZSE (New Zealand Stock

Exchange), where he played a key role in automation of the exchange,

including the implementation of electronic settlement and automated

trading technology.

Peter is Chair of the Technology Committee and a member of the

Clearing Committee.

The Board has determined that, in its view, Peter Jessup is an

Independent Director (as defined in the Listing Rules).

The Board unanimously supports resolution 3 and recommends that you

vote in favour of it at the meeting.
