Dear fellow shareholder,

It is my pleasure, on behalf of the Board, to invite you to the 2025 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting

of The Warehouse Group Limited. The meeting will be held on Friday 28 November 2025 at

10:00am (New Zealand time), at our Store Support Office at 26 The Warehouse Way, Northcote,

Auckland, New Zealand and online through the MUFG Pension & Market Services meeting

platform at www.virtualmeeting.co.nz/whs25.

Please see the Notice of Meeting for information on how to participate online.

Group Chief Executive Officer, Mark Stirton, and I will review the performance of the Company

during the year to 3 August 2025 and provide you with an update on the Company strategy.

Agenda items for this meeting relate to the re-election of directors and authorisation for

directors to fix the fees and expenses of the external auditor.

In accordance with the requirements of the NZX Listing Rules, Caroline Rainsford and I,

Dame Joan Withers, will each retire from the Board at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

Caroline Rainsford offers herself for re-election. As previously disclosed, I will not be seeking

re-election. The Board has appointed John Journee to take over as Chair, effective from the

close of the meeting.

Robbie Tindall has also made the decision to retire from the Board effective from the close of

the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

In addition, the Board appointed Hamish Rumbold as a director effective 1 November 2025,

and, as required by the NZX Listing Rules, Hamish Rumbold will also retire and offers himself

for re-election. The Board unanimously supports the re-election of Caroline Rainsford and

Hamish Rumbold.

All shareholders will have a reasonable opportunity to ask general questions. You will also be

able to ask relevant questions of the auditor’s representative.

We invite you to submit questions in advance of the meeting by emailing your questions to

investors@thewarehouse.co.nz or by writing to the Company Secretary, The Warehouse Group

Limited, PO Box 33470, Takapuna, Auckland 0740, New Zealand.

We will collate the main themes of the questions and respond to them at the meeting, on the

basis that the Company reserves the right not to address questions that were not received by

the close of business on Friday, 21 November 2025 (noting that the questions may be raised by

a shareholder at the meeting), or questions which, in the Chair’s opinion, are not reasonable or

appropriate in the context of an Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.

behalf. If you wish to appoint a proxy you must complete and lodge the Proxy Form (in one of the

Any shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the meeting may appoint another person as their

proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. If you wish to appoint

a proxy you should complete the proxy form that accompanies this Notice of Meeting. Alternatively, you can lodge

Any corporation that is a shareholder of the Company may appoint a person as its representative to attend the

The appointment of a proxy or representative does not preclude a shareholder from attending and voting at

the meeting.

You may appoint the Chair of the meeting or any director, or any other person, as your proxy. The Chair and

directors intend to vote any discretionary proxies, for which they have authority to vote, in favour of the resolutions.

Company at the office of the Company’s share registrar, MUFG Pension & Market Services, not less than 48 hours

proxy and will vote in accordance with that shareholder’s express direction.
