1. Introduction
2. Summary - Private Land and Property Fund
The Private Land and Property Fund is a fund offered under the Booster Investment Scheme 2.
This document is designed to provide potential investors with information on the Private Land and Property Fund (the Fund)
and the Booster Investment Scheme 2 (Scheme) that we believe may be material to a decision to invest in the Fund.
The information provided complements the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for the Fund that the investor received so
it is important that these documents are read together.
Additional information regarding the operation of the Scheme can be found in the Scheme’s Trust Deed which can be
viewed at www.booster.co.nz.
Where the term “we”, “us”, “our”, “ourselves” or “Booster” is used, we mean Booster Investment Management Limited, the
Manager of the Scheme.
It is not possible to include full information on all aspects of the Fund and the Scheme in the PDS and/or this document and
you may have further questions about the suitability of the Fund as an investment for you.
If you do have any questions, we would be pleased to hear from you. You can contact us on 0800 336 338. You can also
discuss your personal situation with your financial adviser.
The Private Land and Property Fund is a managed fund and investors purchase units which gives them an interest in the
Fund that is proportionate to the number of units that the investor holds. The number of units that an investor receives is
dependent on the amount of money invested and the unit price of each unit issued in the Fund.
The Fund is listed on the NZX Main Board (code PLP). You can view the Fund’s NZX page at www.nzx.com/companies/PLP.
An investor can choose to make an investment in the Fund, either by purchasing units through the Booster wrap
administration system or via the NZX through an NZX Participant (such as a broker).
Go to Section 3.1 - Investing in the Fund for further information on the ways to invest into the Fund.
2.1. Investment Structure
The Fund fully invests into a separate wholesale portfolio which is also managed by Booster – the Private Land and
Property Portfolio (Wholesale Portfolio). The Wholesale Portfolio is a managed fund within the Booster Wholesale Scheme,
a separate scheme also managed by Booster Investment Management Limited (BIML or the Manager).
The Fund holds 100% of the units of the Wholesale Portfolio, and the Wholesale Portfolio holds the direct and indirect
property investments, assets, borrowings and liabilities that the investors in the Fund are exposed to. This also means
the unitholders of the Fund are exposed to the costs and charges incurred by the Wholesale Portfolio as part of the
management of the property investments and borrowings.
The diagram below illustrates the relationship between the Fund and the Wholesale Portfolio:
As the Fund increases in size, it will obtain more investment exposure to property by buying units in the Wholesale
Portfolio. Booster, in its role as the manager for the Wholesale Portfolio, continues to look for further suitable investment
opportunities, consistent with its investment strategy, and to increase its level of diversification. Details of the Wholesale
Portfolio’s current property investments, as at the date of this document, are provided in Section 4 below.
The Fund’s latest audited financial statements are available at www.booster.co.nz or on the Scheme Register at
www.disclose-register.companiesoffice.govt.nz.

2.2. Key Financial Ratios at 31 March 2025
Key financial ratios of the Wholesale Portfolio, based on the audited financial statements for the year ending 31 March
2025 (note the borrowing situation of the Wholesale Portfolio has changed since 31 March 2025):
• Gearing ratio – 1.72%
This ratio shows the level of borrowing the Wholesale Portfolio has undertaken as a percentage of total assets.
See Section 4.3 - Borrowing for the latest loan to value ratio (a financial covenant for the borrowing facility in place).
The loan to value ratio differs in some regards to the gearing ratio (for example instead of using ‘total assets’ it uses
‘secured land’). See also the most recent fund update.
• Annual Interest cover ratio – 10.3
This ratio shows how many times earnings would be able to pay the interest debt incurred on borrowings.
It is calculated as follows:
EBITDA is the net profit before tax plus interest, depreciation, and amortisation.
Interest expense depends on the level of borrowing throughout the year as well as interest rates – both aspects
can and do change and so the figure quoted above should not be taken as an indication of the future ratio. The loan
facility agreement with BNZ outlined in Section 10 – Other material contracts includes an interest cover financial
covenant that is measured differently. See Section 4.3 - Borrowing for further details.
• Interest expense percentage – 0.37%
This shows the amount of interest as a proportion of net assets.
Interest expense depends on the level of borrowing throughout the year as well as interest rates – both aspects
can and do change and so the figure quoted above should not be taken as an indication of the future ratio.
• Property operating expenses – 0.10%
This ratio shows the costs incurred to operate and maintain the properties as a percentage of net assets.
Key financial ratios in this section are presented on the basis of the fund’s audited balance date (31 March 2025),
however we draw investor’s attention to the subsequent events and borrowing position as at the date of this
document outlined in Section 4.3.
2.3. Further Information
Section 4.0 - Information on the Wholesale Portfolio outlines further information in respect of the direct assets and liabilities
of the Wholesale Portfolio, including specific details regarding the:
• Property Investments of the Wholesale Portfolio; and,
• Borrowings of the Wholesale Portfolio.

3. Information on the Private Land and Property Fund
3.1. Investing in the Fund
An investor can choose to make an investment in the Fund, either through:
• the Booster wrap administration system (the System). The System is a technology-based wrap administration
platform offered by Booster which consolidates various financial investments into a central location to allow
investors a single point of access to manage their account;
or
• an NZX Participant (such as a broker).
Investing through the System
• To invest in the Fund through the System, an investor must first enter into a Client Custody agreement (Agreement)
for the System by either:
• applying directly to Booster at www.booster.co.nz/booster-investments/private-land-and-property-fund; or
• applying via a financial adviser or a financial adviser authorised to provide a Discretionary Investment Management
Service (DIMS).
The Agreement enables the investor to invest in the Fund through an account in the System and sets out the terms and
conditions upon which access is provided through the System. Under the Agreement all of the investor’s investments
are held by, and in the name of, a custodian to the System to ensure that beneficial ownership of the investments remain
with the investor, not the financial adviser or us. The custodian for most investors is Asset Custodian Nominees Limited
(ACNL), a related party of the Manager which acts as a bare trust established solely for this purpose. For some investors
the custodian may be different. The custodian of the System can change from time to time without prior notification. By
accessing the Fund via the System, the investor is not subscribing for units in the Fund directly.
Buying units on the NZX Main Board (code PLP)
You can buy units in the Fund on market at the quoted price through an NZX Participant (such as a broker). In order to trade
quoted units, you will need to have a Common Shareholder Number (CSN) an Authorisation Code (FIN) and a relationship
with an NZX Participant. See www.nzx.com/services/market-participants for a list of current NZX Participants.
You can view the Fund’s NZX page at www.nzx.com/companies/PLP, including all announcements made on the NZX at
www.nzx.com/companies/PLP/announcements.
Applications
We may accept or decline applications at our discretion. No interest will be paid on applications that are declined in whole
or in part (except as required by law). We may invite offers for investments in the Fund and any offer may be underwritten.
We may set minimum application amounts and balances and may waive or vary the minimum application and balance
amounts at any time. See the PDS for further information.
3.2. Risk Indicator
Information on the risk indicator for the Fund has been included in the PDS. In the PDS Section 4 - What are the risks
of investing? it is noted that the risk indicator is based on the returns data for the five years to 31 December 2025. Each
quarter, fund updates will tell you what the most recent risk indicator for the Fund is, again based on returns data for the
previous five years.
If you would like more information on the risk indicators for the Fund and of the methodology used, please contact us on
0800 336 338.
3.3. Interest in the Fund
Investments expressed in units
The Fund is divided into units. Each unit confers an equal interest in the Fund, although investors do not acquire any direct
right or interest in any of the investments held by the Fund.
Investments and other credits to the Scheme are used to purchase units in the Fund by the investor. Similarly, withdrawal
payments and other deductions are made by selling units.
The value of each investor’s units from time to time will depend on the value of the Fund and the number and unit price
of units held in the Fund. Investment returns (whether gains or losses) will be reflected by changes in unit prices.
A register of unitholders in the Fund is maintained by MUFG Pension & Market Services (NZ) Limited (MUFG)
(Unit Registrar) which records all of the investment details of each unitholder, including (but not limited to)
number of units held, contributions, withdrawals, tax and imputation credit information.
Private Land and Property Fund6
3.4. Calculation of Fund value and unit value
The Fund’s value (known as the ‘net asset value’ of the Fund) is calculated by deducting from the aggregate of:
• the redemption value of the units held by the Fund in the Wholesale Portfolio; and
• the cash forming part of the assets of the Fund, and any other assets of the Fund (if any).
the aggregate of:
• the liabilities of the Fund; and,
• all unpaid costs, fees, charges and other material outgoings of the Fund (including the Supervisor’s and our fee,
and expenses) accrued to that date.
The unit value (unit price) for the Fund is calculated for each working day by dividing the net asset value by the number of
units on issue at the relevant time in the Fund. The Fund’s unit prices are published on Booster’s website at www.booster.
co.nz/booster-investments/private-land-and-property-fund. The unit value calculated by Booster may differ from the
quoted price on the NZX Main Board.
3.5. Income Distributions
The Fund will aim to pay quarterly distributions to investors of any net cash income received from the Wholesale
Portfolio (after allowing for tax and expenses). The payment of distributions is at the discretion of the Manager.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)
Investors who are a resident in New Zealand and have an address in New Zealand on the Fund register are eligible to,
and can choose to reinvest, their distribution by participating in the DRP. As participation in the DRP is voluntary, eligible
investors are free to opt-in or opt-out of the DRP at any time with prior notice to the Manager (for direct investors) or
MUFG (for NZX investors).
The following additional conditions apply to the DRP:
1. When the Fund announces a distribution, the Fund will also confirm whether the DRP will apply to that distribution
(i.e. the Fund can revert to paying only cash distributions at any time).
2. The price of the units issued under the DRP will be the latest available unit price on the morning of the payment date.
3. The New Zealand tax status of the distribution will not change.
4. Any new units issued under the DRP will rank equally in all respects with existing units.
5. The Manager retains the right to determine that the DRP will not apply to a particular distribution, or will not apply
to some of a particular distribution (rather than all), with the result being that all or the relevant proportion of that
distribution will be paid in cash instead of the DRP applying.
6. Investors must complete an DRP Election Notice if they are to opt into the DRP or cease participating in the DRP.
7. All DRP Election Notices must be received by the Manager (for investors who hold their units through Booster) or
by MUFG (for investors investing directly on the NZX) by the Record Date of the relevant distribution. Record Date
means 5:00pm on the date fixed by the Manager for determining entitlements to distributions payable or credited
on Fund units. An election will remain in force for all future distributions to which the DRP applies, unless an
updated DRP Election Notice is received advising the investor no longer wants to participate in the DRP. A copy of
the DRP Election Notice is available from the Manager or if you invested into the Fund directly on the NZX, you can
make your election on-line at nz.investorcentre.mpms.mufg.com/Login/Login.
Partial Units
• Investors who hold units through Booster’s custodial service are able to hold partial units, resulting in the full value
of the distribution being reinvested without any residual cash left over.
• For investors investing directly on the NZX, the number of additional units received under the DRP will be rounded
down to the nearest whole unit (to comply with NZX rules). Any residual cash left-over shall be carried over and
applied under the DRP the next time the DRP operates. You will not accrue interest on this residual cash balance.
Should you cease to participate in the DRP; or cease to be a unitholder of the Fund, any residual cash balances that
have been carried over shall be forfeited.
Statements
• For investors who hold units through the System, Booster will provide you with reporting in respect of all of your
investments with Booster on at least an annual basis, including details of the distribution and the number of units
received under the DRP.
• For investors investing directly on the NZX, MUFG (Unit Registrar), will send a statement within five trading days of
the allotment of additional units issued, including details of the distribution and the number of units received under
this DRP as well as any residual cash balances carried over.
Private Land and Property Fund7
3.6. Basis of Estimates for Fees and Costs
The total annual fund charges disclosed in the Private Land and Property Fund PDS are based on the charges associated
with investing in the Fund. These charges include the management fee and, where applicable, an estimate for other
management and administration charges. These charges, if applicable, are reflected in the unit price of the relevant fund.
Refer to Section 5 - What are the fees? of the PDS for additional details of how fees are charged.
Other Management and administration charges
In Fund Costs
These charges include the Supervisor’s fee and other costs, disbursements, charges or expenses incurred directly or
indirectly by Booster and the Supervisor (such as audit fees and legal fees). Because these fees are capped, they are stated
in the PDS as 0.10% of the net asset value of the Fund per year.
Property Operating Expenses
These are the direct costs of ownership and operating the individual Properties of the Wholesale Portfolio. This includes
(but is not limited to) valuations and other property related costs and associated professional fees. The estimate of the
property operating expenses has been prepared on the following basis:
• Reasonable estimates made for costs such as valuations based on current or past costs and other property related
costs and associated professional fees.
• The actual expenses charged for the most recently completed Scheme year have been taken into account in
deriving the reasonable estimates.
Note the actual costs may differ from estimated costs, including if additional properties are purchased.
As stated in Section 5 - What are the fees? of the PDS the ongoing Property Operating Costs that the Fund will incur is
estimated to be 0.12%. The basis of this estimate is outlined above.
Other costs and expenses
The Fund returns may also be impacted by interest and borrowing costs related to gearing undertaken by the Wholesale
Portfolio. These are the interest costs and any fees associated with the implementation or amendment of borrowing
facilities. These expenses are not considered to be Fund charges (as outlined above), but an example illustration of these
costs being an estimate based on certain assumptions is disclosed in the PDS to provide investors an understanding
of the nature and amount of the expenses that the Fund (or Wholesale Portfolio) would incur under specific borrowing
assumptions set out in the PDS.
As stated in Section 5 - What are the fees? of the PDS the interest and borrowing costs that would be incurred under the
illustrative assumptions set out in the PDS are calculated to be 2.81% of the net assets of the Fund. Pursuant to the PDS, this
assumes the following borrowing assumptions:
• A gearing ratio of 40% is in place.
• An interest rate of 4.21% is charged, being the interest rate available at the date of the PDS (noting that the interest
rate generally resets periodically).
In addition to these estimates, we draw investors’ attention to the fund’s borrowing position outlined in Section 4.3.

The Wholesale Portfolio is currently in the process of agreeing and documenting the surrender of lease relating to approximately 40%
of these vineyards and subsequent planned conversion into apple orchards with the conversion planned to take place during 2026. The
forecast funding requirement (exclusing finance costs) for the planned redevelopment is approximately $16 million over six years and is
anticipated to be funded by debt.
*The vineyard at Lansdowne Rd was replanted in 2022 and 2023 due to vine health and age, with the varieties of grapes selected
adjusted to take into account demand. As a result of this, the lease on this vineyard only was separated from the existing lease and
extended to 2052 with the lessor having the right to break the lease in 2037 to allow the term to align to the other vineyards.

of termination) until a final expiry date of 31 May 2036
Last independent valuationJanuary 2026
The valuation of WROLP differs from the valuation of the orchard that it owns due in part to the
fact that WROLP has other assets such as an amount of cash for working capital requirements.
Notes on Investment
WROLP was established to acquire an orchard in the Western Bay of Plenty. The orchard consists of mixed age SunGold
TM
kiwifruit,
Hayward green kiwifruit and mixed age Hass avocados. WROLP has engaged DHSL to manage the orchard.
Approximately 5ha of Hayward green kiwifruit was converted to SunGold
TM
kiwifruit in 2025. These newly grafted vines are expected
to reach full maturity for the 2029 harvest. Business cases for further conversion of up to 3.6ha of Hayward green kiwifruit to SunGold
TM
kiwifruit as well as avocados to SunGold
TM
or Hayward kiwifruit will be contemplated and if a decision is made to undertake any such
conversion, development would commence after the 2026 harvest at the earliest.
All kiwifruit grown on the property is sold on WROLP’s behalf by Zespri which may be across a number of different markets.
*DHSL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Darling Group Holdings Limited.
Private Land and Property Fund18
Notes on the Property investments:
1. The value of the Property is at 31 January 2026 based on the Manager’s assessment of the most recent independent
valuation (or at cost as at the purchase date where purchased within the last 12 months). The Manager reviews
the valuation of Property on at least a quarterly basis and the Manager’s valuation assessment is supported by the
independent valuations received for each Property:
• For the Awatere based land, the Manager’s valuations are derived from the latest independent valuations.
• For the Hope, Nelson based land, the fund adopted a value that represents its current rental potential per
the lease terms, and a portion of the open market value that is available to the fund at the end of the lease. In
this period, the fund’s returns will therefore comprise both rental income and an assessed portion of the open
market value that could be realised in the future. Periodic valuation reports will also reassess the open market
value and any adjustment will be recognised as valuation evidence requires.
• For Hawke’s Bay based land and buildings, the Manager’s valuation is derived from the latest independent
valuation.
• For Mahana, Nelson based land and buildings, the Manager’s valuation is derived from the latest independent
valuation.
• For the orchard in Kerikeri, the Manager’s valuation is supported by the latest independent valuation which
includes an “as is” and “as mature” valuation as the land is under development. The unit price recognises
incremental increases in the value for the land not yet fully mature. The returns associated with this property
include lease revenue and a recognition of the gain in value of the Kiwifruit vines as they reach maturity.
• For Waimea West Hops, the Manager’s valuation is supported by the latest independent valuation. The returns
associated with this investment include any dividends received.
• For the orchards in the Bay of Plenty and Far North, the Manager’s valuation is supported by the latest
independent advisory report on the fair value of the properties which includes an “as is” and “as mature”
valuation as the land is under development. The unit price recognises incremental increases in the value for the
land not yet fully mature. The returns associated with this property include lease revenue and a recognition of
the gain in value of the avocado trees as they reach maturity.
• For the Southland dairy land and buildings, the Manager’s valuation is derived from the latest independent
valuations.
• For the Rolleston logistics warehouse the Manager’s valuation is derived from the latest independent valuation.
• For WROLP the key asset WROLP owns is a Bay of Plenty kiwifruit and avocado orchard - the Manager’s
valuation of WROLP is based significantly off its view of the valuation of this orchard. The orchard has been
valued with reference to the most recent independent valuation. The valuation of WROLP differs from that of
the orchard that it owns as WROLP owns other assets such as an amount of cash for working capital purposes.
2. The key terms of each of the material contracts related to the Property of the Wholesale Portfolio can be found in
section 10.0 – Other Material Contracts of this document.
3. Waimea West Hops Limited has a long term contract in place with Freestyle Hops Limited which provides
marketing and consignment sale services on behalf of Waimea West Hops Limited. Freestyle Hops Limited enters
into separate agreements and arrangements with end customers in New Zealand and internationally to sell hops
directly to the end customers.
4. Debt ratio is of Waimea West Hops Limited and is calculated as net debt divided by total assets as per information
in financial statements for Waimea West Hops Limited for the year ended 31 December 2024.
4.2. Property Development Projects
There are various property development projects currently in place to maintain, improve and enhance the Properties. The
Manager of the Wholesale Portfolio approves all property development and the associated capital expenditure required
to complete the development. The project work completed on the Properties is expected to affect the valuation of the
property, which is reflected in the unit price of the Wholesale Portfolio.
A summary of the material property development projects that are currently underway are detailed below:
Kerikeri kiwifruit and lemon orchard
The orchard, purchased in 2019, contains 19.6 hectares of SunGold kiwifruit, mostly grafted in 2019 and 2020 as well as
11 hectares of mature Yen Ben lemons and 2.7 hectares of new Yen Ben lemon plantings. A small section of the kiwifruit (2
hectares) is mature. It is expected all vines will reach full maturity in 2026. Based on the expected as mature valuation as
assessed by an independent valuer, the Manager considers that the orchard’s value will increase by $1.3m from the most
recent independent valuation (excluding any general market driven change in land values over that time).
For unit pricing purposes, the net asset value of the land is increased at the internal rate of return calculated at the date of
the most recent independent valuation assessment, with the development gains on the orchard recognised as each planting
reaches maturity.
Private Land and Property Fund19
Bay of Plenty and Far North Avocado Orchards
The four orchards, Ngataki Orchard & Hukatere Orchard in the Far North, Uretata Orchard in Bay of Plenty and Amber
Grove in Gisborne were originally purchased for $17.5 million with approximately 50% of the blocks planted with young
avocado trees which have not yet reached full maturity. The young avocados were planted between 2017 and 2020 with the
most recent plantings expected to reach maturity by early 2029. Based on the assessment of external valuers the as mature
value of the orchards is expected to be $12.8 million.
For unit pricing purposes the four orchards have been treated collectively as they all sit under a single lease arrangement.
The unit price is based on the internal rate of return calculated at the date of the most recent independent valuation
assessment, with the development gains on the orchard recognised as each planting reaches maturity.
Bay of Plenty Kiwifruit and Avocado Orchard investment – via WROLP
The Bay of Plenty orchard which is held via WROLP acquired an additional 5.01ha of SunGold
TM
Kiwifruit licence via the
restricted auction process in May 2025. This allows WROLP to undertake conversion of 5.01ha of Hayward green kiwifruit
to SunGold
TM
Kiwifruit. This conversion process begun in July 2025 and newly grafted vines are expected to reach full
maturity for the 2029 harvest. Based on the assessment undertaken by an external valuer, the as mature value of the
orchard is expected to be $20.1m, an increase of $1.4m from the most recent independent valuation.
For unit pricing purposes, the value of the investment in WROLP is valued based on the value of the underlying property as
well as other assets held by the LP, including the current cash balance. The value of the underlying property is increased
by an internal rate of returns calculated at the date of the most recent independent valuation assessment, with the
development gains on the orchard recognised as each planting reaches maturity.
4.3. Borrowing
The Fund may not borrow, but it has an indirect exposure to borrowings via the Wholesale Portfolio which has its own
borrowing facility. The Wholesale Portfolio may gear up to 65% of its total assets and has a target of 40%.
As at the date of this document, a summary of the loans in place are as follows:
The Wholesale Portfolio has a revolving 4.75-year loan facility with BNZ Bank of New Zealand Limited (BNZ). As security for
the borrowings, BNZ has a first ranking general security interest over the Wholesale Portfolio assets (other than shares in
Waimea West Hops Limited). The unpaid principal and interest in respect of these borrowings is taken into account in the
unit value of units in the Wholesale Portfolio. In the event of a wind up of the Wholesale Portfolio, any unpaid principal and
interest in respect of the borrowings will rank ahead of the interests of investors in the Wholesale Portfolio and will need to
be paid before any payment of the residual value can be paid to its investors, which is currently just the Fund.
As at 31 January 2026, a summary of the loans in place are as follows:

Interest cover ratio (EBITDA to interest costs) is to exceed 2 times)10.3:1 for the year to 31 March 2025
In addition to the interest rate, there is a non-utilisation fee calculated on undrawn loan amounts as per below
• If up to 49.9% of the facility is drawn, the non-utilisation fee is 0.75%.
• If between to 50% and 74.9% of the facility is drawn, the non-utilisation fee is 0.50%.
• If over 75% of the facility is drawn, the non-utilisation fee is 0.25%.
The repayment of any principal outstanding falls due on the expiry date noted above. It is the Manager’s intention (as
manager of the Wholesale Portfolio) to seek to arrange an extension or refinance prior to the end of the facility’s term.
In order to maintain the loan facility, certain financial covenants must be met. The financial covenants for the loans,
and their ratios are as follows:
Private Land and Property Fund20
Note:
• The loan to value ratio is how much the Wholesale Portfolio owes (interest bearing debt/ borrowings) as a portion
of the value (with reference to the most recent independent valuations) of the Secured Land. Secured Land means
the property assets owned by the Wholesale Portfolio that BNZ has a security interest over (as at the date of this
document this includes all property assets other than shares in Waimea West Hops Limited and units in Woodland
Road Orchard LP).
• The interest cover ratio of the Wholesale Portfolio is calculated annually as EBITDA divided by the interest and
borrowing costs on senior debt. EBITDA is calculated as the sum of operating profit or loss before transaction
costs, interest expense, the BIML management fee, income tax, depreciation and amortisation.
For further information on this loan facility, refer to Section 10.0 - Other Material Contracts below.
In addition to the borrowing undertaken directly, the Wholesale Portfolio may also have indirect borrowings through its
investments (depending upon the structure of the investment). Waimea West Hops Limited (the company through which
the Wholesale Portfolio holds its investment in hop growing land) utilises its own borrowings. The extent of the borrowings
is disclosed in the information on Waimea West Hops Limited (Sub Section 4.1 - Property Investments of the Wholesale
Portfolio).
5. Guarantees
6. Taxation
No person, including us, the Supervisor, the government or any other party, guarantees the performance, returns or
repayment of capital of the Scheme, the Fund or of the Wholesale Portfolio.
The information in this section is intended as general guidance only and is based on legislation in effect at the date of this
document. There may be various non-New Zealand tax consequences which affect the Scheme and non-New Zealand
resident investors that are not addressed here. We recommend that investors seek professional tax advice regarding their
individual circumstances, to clarify any of the following, prior to investing. Investors should also periodically monitor the tax
implications of investing in the Scheme and should not assume that the position will remain the same as it was when they
started investing.
Neither the Supervisor nor the Manager accepts any responsibility for the taxation consequences of an investor’s
investment in the Scheme.
The Private Land and Property Fund is a Listed Portfolio Investment Entity (Listed PIE). The following information is based
on the Fund being a Listed PIE.
6.1. Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) Tax
Under the PIE regime for Listed PIEs, the Fund will pay tax at 28% on all taxable income it earns.
When the Fund pays a distribution to its investors then, to the extent that it has imputation credits as a result of income tax
it has paid, it will attach those imputation credits to the distribution to the maximum extent permitted by law.
To the extent a distribution does not have imputation credits attached (referred to as excluded income), the distribution
is not taxable to the investor. The effect is that any income earned by the Fund that is not taxable to the Fund can be
distributed to investors free from any further tax.
For that portion of the distribution that has imputation credits attached at 28%, a New Zealand tax resident individual or
trustee (other than a trustee of a unit trust) can choose to include this in their tax return. By including the distribution in
their tax return, an investor that has a marginal tax rate of less than 28% can apply the benefit of any surplus tax credits
against their other taxable income (or carry forward those tax credits to future tax years). For a New Zealand resident
individual or trustee (other than a trustee of a unit trust) with a marginal tax rate of 28% or more, this income does not
need to be included in their tax return, as the tax paid by the Listed PIE at 28% is deemed a final tax. Other investors (e.g. a
company, charity or unit trust) are taxed on Fund distributions that have imputation credits attached.
For investors who are not resident in New Zealand for New Zealand tax purposes, non-resident withholding tax (NRWT) of
up to 15% will be withheld from that portion of a distribution that is fully imputed, although the NRWT rate may be reduced
to the extent that the non-resident investor has a direct voting interest of 10% or more of the units in the Fund or, in some
cases, under an applicable double tax agreement.
Private Land and Property Fund21
Tax on investments made by the Fund
As the Fund is registered as a PIE, any capital gains made by the Fund in respect to property, shares in New Zealand
resident companies and certain Australian resident listed companies are excluded from the calculation of taxable income.
Most overseas shares and interests in managed funds held by the Fund will be taxed under the foreign investment fund (FIF)
regime, generally using the fair dividend rate (FDR) method.
Under the FDR method, the Fund will be deemed to have derived income equal to 5% of the market value of its overseas
shares and interests in managed funds calculated on a daily basis (any dividends or other returns flowing from overseas
shares and interests in managed funds will not be separately taxed in New Zealand). Also under the FDR method, tax
deductions may not be made for any losses in respect of holdings in overseas shares and interests in managed funds.
Other income of the Fund (e.g. interest on bank deposits) is subject to the relevant normal tax rules. Tax may be imposed in
overseas jurisdictions in relation to overseas investments (although this may give rise to a tax credit in New Zealand).
The Fund also currently receives an indirect tax timing benefit from the depreciation the Wholesale Portfolio claims on its
Property.
6.2. Tax Reporting
Under various agreements and treaties the Fund and/or the Manager may be required to provide information to tax
authorities in jurisdictions outside of New Zealand. We may request this information from you in order to discharge those
obligations.
The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)
FATCA is legislation that was introduced by the United States Government as a means of preventing tax evasion by US
citizens and tax residents. FATCA has been adopted by the New Zealand Government through an Intergovernmental
Agreement with the US Government (the ‘IGA’) and enabling domestic legislation. Under the IGA, certain New Zealand
financial institutions, such as the Trust, are required to identify investors that are US persons (or certain entities controlled
by US persons), and to report certain information about those investors and their financial accounts to Inland Revenue. This
information is collated by Inland Revenue and passed to the US Internal Revenue Service. For more information on FATCA,
please refer to the Inland Revenue website: ird.govt.nz/international-tax/exchange-of-information/fatca/about-fatca.
The Scheme has been registered for FATCA purposes.
Automatic Exchange of Financial Account Information in Tax Matters (AEOI) and Common Reporting Standard
(CRS)
AEOI and CRS imposes global rules for the purpose of avoiding offshore tax evasion through the exchange of financial
information between tax authorities in different overseas jurisdictions. Additional information must be obtained from
investors to determine whether any investor are non-tax residents of New Zealand (i.e. resident for tax in another country)
and for any non-tax residents of New Zealand, report certain information such as tax residency, account balances and
interest earned, to the New Zealand Inland Revenue. Accordingly, we may require additional information from investors in
order to comply with these obligations. For more information on AEOI and CRS, please refer to the Inland Revenue website:
ird.govt.nz/international-tax/exchange-of-information/crs/important-documents.
General Comments
Tax law is complex and changes frequently. Investors should periodically monitor the tax implications of investing in the
Scheme and should not assume that the position will remain the same as it is when they start investing. In addition, if
the Fund ceases to qualify as a Listed PIE then the tax consequences will be different from what is set out above. The
comments under this section “Taxation” are provided as general background only and are not a comprehensive discussion
of tax issues.
Private Land and Property Fund22
7. Information about the Scheme
7.1. Suspension
There will be times when we believe that it is not practicable for a unit price to be calculated fairly. This may happen where,
for example, there is significant disruption in the relevant property markets and market valuations are unable to be reliably
assessed, or where the Fund (or any underlying fund) has had a significant request for withdrawals beyond the level of
liquidity it can make available. If we are not able to calculate the unit price for the Fund, the issue of units and the payment
of withdrawals, in relation to the Fund, will be suspended.
The period of suspension can be up to 90 days. This can be extended by agreement between us and the Supervisor.
Investors who have provided a withdrawal notice will be notified of the suspension.
Units in respect of investments received during a period of suspension will be allocated at the unit price calculated at the
end of the suspension period. Similarly, payments in respect of any withdrawals will be made at the unit price calculated at
the end of the suspension period.
7.2. Amendment of the Trust Deed
We and the Supervisor may amend the Trust Deed in certain circumstances where we believe this to be necessary or
desirable. Any amendment will be carried out in accordance with the Trust Deed and investors will be notified of such
amendments in the Annual Report for the Scheme. For further information, please refer to the Trust Deed.
7.3. Winding up the Fund and the Scheme
The Scheme can be wound up in accordance with the Trust Deed. For further information, refer to the Trust Deed.
If we believe that it is in investors’ best interests, we can propose to wind up the Fund at any time by giving notice. If the
wind up of the Fund goes ahead, investors may be given the opportunity of switching to an alternative fund. If this is the
case, any investor who does not advise us that they have chosen an alternative fund will be switched to a default fund
nominated by us. Upon the winding up of the Fund, the assets of the Fund are realised and, after payment of all liabilities,
the proceeds are distributed to the investors that held units in the Fund in proportion to the numbers of units held by them
immediately prior to winding up.
7.4. Market Indices
Generally, each asset class in which any of the Scheme’s investments are held is measured, for performance purposes,
against an appropriate benchmark index.
The purpose of a benchmark index is to reflect the performance of the Fund in comparison to that of the overall market for
the asset class or asset classes in which the Fund is invested. Such benchmark indices are widely recognised in financial
markets and are administered independently from us.
The indices used are generally included in the Scheme’s Statement of Investment Policies and Objectives (‘SIPO’), which
can be found at www.booster.co.nz. However, due to the specialised nature of the investment strategy of the Fund no
appropriate securities index or peer group index exists. The absence of an appropriate securities index or peer group index
means that the Fund’s performance will not be benchmarked against a reference return in the fund updates.

9. Conflicts of interest
Conflicts of interests are circumstances where some or all of the interests of investors for whom we, as Manager of the
Scheme, provide financial services, are inconsistent with, or diverge from, some or all of the interests of the Manager or
its representatives. This includes actual, apparent and potential conflicts of interest.
We recognise that conflicts of interest can arise at any time. We also recognise that we are responsible for identifying
any conflicts and for ensuring that adequate arrangements are in place to ensure that they are managed.
The following are situations where conflicts of interest may arise that could reasonably be expected to materially influence
the investment decisions of the manager in respect of the Fund. This is not an exhaustive list:
Description of conflict of interest
Why this may influence investment
decisions in respect of the Fund
How we manage the conflict
(see below the table as well)
Contractual arrangements are entered
into between related parties. See 9.1
Related Party Transactions – contractual
arrangements for further information.
There is a risk that arrangements entered
into (as part of investment decisions) may
favour the related party to the detriment
of the Fund (including via the Wholesale
Fund), or that the related party may not
meet its obligations to the detriment of
the Fund due to the close association of
the parties.
Controls are in place to ensure that such
arrangements are completed at arms-
length and on commercial terms (as
required by the Trust Deed governing
the operation of the Scheme). Controls
may include reference to independent
valuations and industry datasets.
Steps taken may include segregation of
duties where appropriate, and appropriate
governance structures are in place.
Related parties may be in a position to
exert influence over Booster (for example
where they have shared directors and/
or contractual links with Booster); and/or
individuals may be influenced to direct the
Fund to invest in specific investments or
in a certain way (for example due to them
holding interests in the Fund or in another
investment, or in the Booster Group, or
other roles).
There is a risk that such influence is
exerted to impact investment / investment
management decisions in relation to the
fund to achieve objectives that differ from
the Fund’s objective.
Controls are in place to ensure that
related party transactions are completed
at arms-length, are consistent with the
respective fund’s objectives, and are on
commercial terms (as required by the
Trust Deed governing the operation of the
Scheme). Controls may include reference
to independent valuations and oversight of
independent director in relation to material
transactions.
Steps taken may include segregation of
duties where appropriate, and appropriate
governance structures are in place.
The Fund invests into the Wholesale
Portfolio which is also managed by
Booster.
Booster earns a management fee in
relation to the Wholesale Portfolio and in
relation to the Fund.
There is a risk that investment decisions
are made for the benefit of the Wholesale
Portfolio and Booster as its manager rather
than the Fund.
Booster rebates to the Fund the value of
the Wholesale Portfolio fee (so there is
no additional management fee earned by
Booster).
Controls are in place to ensure that any
arrangements between the Fund and the
Wholesale Portfolio are completed at
arms-length and on commercial terms (as
required by the Trust Deed governing the
operation of the Scheme). Controls may
include reference to industry benchmarks.
Other situations where conflicts of interest may arise but are not expected to materially influence the investment decisions
of the manager in respect of the Fund exist. For example:
• Investment values artificially inflated to increase fees based on net asset values, or to inflate historic performance
to attract/retain investors.
• Investment knowledge used by an individual employee to their own benefit (insider trading).
• Intra month applications or withdrawals available to the Booster funds but not external investors may have a
detrimental impact to external investors.
• Internal trading between Booster funds which could be detrimental to one or other.
• Other Booster funds may buy or sell units on the NZX Main Board at trading prices that may be a premium or
discount to the unit price issued by the Manager.
Private Land and Property Fund26
How we manage conflicts
A comprehensive policy has been developed relating to the management of conflicts of interest. Procedures and processes
have been put in place for:
• Identifying conflicts of interest.
• Controlling conflicts of interest.
• Avoiding conflicts of interest.
• Disclosing conflicts of interest.
As part of the conflict of interest procedures, the Manager will not buy or sell units in circumstances where its directors or
senior management is aware of material information that is not known to the market or reflected in the unit price. This will
also apply where redemptions from the Fund are suspended due to being unable to determine a fair redemption price.
9.1. Related Party Transactions – contractual arrangements
Conflicts of interest may arise with regard to services that are, or that may be, provided by related parties of ourselves or
the Supervisor to the Scheme.
The Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, and Trust Deed governing the operation of the Scheme include provisions that
generally prevent us, as Manager, or BFSL from entering into arrangements with a related party in relation to the Scheme
that involve related party benefits
1
, unless certain steps are taken (for example transactions are completed on arm’s length
/ commercial terms) and appropriate certification is provided to the Supervisor. In addition, both we and the Supervisor
must, at all times, act in the best interests of investors when performing any duties in relation to the Scheme. Controls are
in place to ensure that related party transactions are managed appropriately.
The Fund is permitted to invest in cash and cash equivalents and units in the Wholesale Portfolio, a fund we also manage
and a related party to the Fund. All investment activity between the Fund and the Wholesale Portfolio is completed on an
arm’s length basis.
Fund – Related party contracts
The following contractual arrangements for the provision of services by related parties are currently in place:
• The Custodian, which is a related company of the Supervisor, has been appointed by the Supervisor to act as
custodian and to hold the investments of the Scheme.
• Booster Custodial Administration Services Limited (BCAS), which is a related company of ours, has entered
into a Custodial Administration Services Agreement with the Custodian, the Supervisor and us (as the Manager).
This agreement delegates administration services of the Custodian to BCAS, including those relating to acquisition,
registration and disposal of or other dealing with the assets of the Scheme, and as a result BCAS operates on
instruction from the Manager (or Supervisor or Custodian) in regard to the services. This Agreement outlines BCAS

The following is a summary of the nature and key terms of material contracts that have been entered into in respect of
the Wholesale Portfolio. Where a contract is between related parties, a description of how these parties are associated is
detailed. The below contracts have been entered into on an arm’s length basis.
Net Grape Supply Agreement
Nature of the ContractThe Wholesale Portfolio sells the grapes it produces from its Marlborough based land to Booster Wine
Group Limited Partnership (BWG), a related party to Booster.
Vineyard management is undertaken by Awatere River Vineyards Limited (ARVL), a related party to
Booster under terms which are approved by the Manager of the Wholesale Portfolio. ARVL manages
the land and the production of the grapes. Vineyard management costs are set in terms of agreed
activities and charges that are reported to, and monitored by, the Manager.
The Wholesale Portfolio has arrangements under which it sells grapes at market related prices net of
the agreed vineyard management costs (which are the responsibility of the grape buyer).
Description This agreement relates to:
a) the sale of grapes grown on the following vineyards owned by the Wholesale Portfolio; and
b) the provision of vineyard management services for the following vineyards owned by the
Wholesale Portfolio:
• 2 Flemings Road, Seddon, Marlborough
• 75 Barewood Road, Seddon, Marlborough
• 206 Upton Downs Road, Seddon, Marlborough
Under this agreement, the Grower grows grapes on these vineyards and then agrees to sell, and BWG
agrees to buy, the contracted tonnes of grapes produced on the contracted blocks on these vineyards
for its winemaking business.
PartiesAwatere River Vineyards Limited (ARVL)
ARVL is the appointed manager of the vineyards.
PT (Booster Investments) Nominees Limited (Grower/Owner)
The Grower/Owner is the custodian of the vineyards held by the Wholesale Portfolio.

Partnership (BWG) (Grape Buyer)
BWG is securing a supply of grapes for its winemaking business.

Grower/Owner under this agreement are met.
Related partiesARVL is 50% owned by ARWCL and 50% by Waimea Estates (Nelson) Limited (WENL), both of which
are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Booster Wine Group Limited Partnership (BWG).
BWG is between 90-100% owned by the Booster Tahi Limited Partnership (BTLP). BTLP is managed by
Booster Funds Management Limited (BFML).
Both BFML and BIML (the Manager of this Fund and the Wholesale Portfolio) are 100% owned by
Booster Financial Services Limited (BFS).
The arrangements are entered in to on an arm’s length commercial basis.
Term1 April 2020 to 31 May 2030
Pricing principlesThe Wholesale Portfolio has arrangements under which it sells grapes so that the vineyard management
costs are the responsibility of the grape buyer. These costs which are charged by ARVL are set in terms
of agreed activities and charges that are reported to, and monitored by, the Wholesale Portfolio.
Establishment of the Grape Price component
BWG will establish a price to be paid for the grapes annually, which will be based on certain factors
outlined in the agreement. These factors include:
• The price paid for grapes of the same varietal as reported by the ‘Viticulture Model
Benchmarking Report’ for Marlborough (produced by New Zealand Wine) from the previous
vintage (or any other industry report that the parties agree to use); and
• The current supply and demand for grapes of the same varietal and bearing similar
characteristics as the relevant grapes.
The final price paid will ultimately be agreed by both parties.
Private Land and Property Fund28
Sub-Standard Grapes
The grapes grown on these vineyards must meet the Viticultural Standards outlined in this agreement.
However, if any of the grapes do not meet the required standards, BWG can propose a price for the
sub-standard grapes, which the Grower can either choose to accept or reject the price. If the Grower
rejects the price, BWG will be deemed to have rejected the sub-standard grapes and the Grower will
then be able to find another buyer for these grapes.
Excess Tonnes
If the Grower produces more than the contracted tonnes, BWG will agree to purchase the additional
tonnes. The price for any additional tonnes of grapes will be 50% of the agreed price of the contracted
tonnes.
ARVL’s Establishment of the Vineyard Management Fee component
The vineyard management fee component of the net grape supply agreement is based on an agreed
annual price per hectare of vineyard land, the age of the vines (from the time the vines are planted),
and the number of hectares planted.
ARVL’s responsibilities• ARVL is responsible for providing the vineyard management services (which are outlined in the
agreement) to the Owner of the vineyards.
• Each year ARVL is required to provide the Owner with:
- an intended work plan for the following annual period and the expected production and quality
levels for the forthcoming annual period and the following two annual periods; and
- a budget of anticipated capital expenditure for the forthcoming annual period for the Owner’s
approval. Any capital expenditure not contemplated under this budget will usually require the
approval of the Owner before any purchases are made.
• ARVL is also responsible for all operating costs in the provision of the services under the
agreement.
TerminationThe agreement may be terminated with immediate effect by the grower or BWG if an event of default
occurs as outlined in the agreement, and the party not in default has given notice in writing to the
defaulting party. A default event includes the failure to deliver the grapes to BWG (unless BWG has
provided prior approval in writing), changes to the legal status of a party (for example a party ceases
to do business), or a party breaches the terms of the agreement, and they are not remedied within the
agreed timeframes.

11. Other important information
The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) has filed civil proceedings alleging breaches of the Financial Markets Conduct
Act by Booster and some of its executive directors and senior managers. The proceedings relate to investments made by
Booster on behalf of Schemes managed by it via an associated limited partnership, the Booster Tahi Limited Partnership
(Tahi). Tahi in turn invested less than 0.55% (as at 31 December 2025) of Booster’s funds under management into the
Booster Wine Group (BWG). The FMA allegations include that by making those investments Booster breached its duties
and obligations as manager of the Booster KiwiSaver Scheme, the Booster Super Scheme and the Booster Investment
Scheme. FMA’s press release can be found here: www.fma.govt.nz/news/all-releases/media-releases/.
Booster strongly disputes FMA’s allegations and will defend itself vigorously. Booster does not accept any wrongdoing
and stands by its robust investment practices and its decision to invest in the wine sector. Booster continues to believe its
investment structure and processes are appropriate and that investors’ interests have not been compromised. Booster looks
forward to the opportunity ahead to demonstrate that it acts in its customers best interests. For further information on

will also impact the return of the Fund but such returns are not the primary
objective of the Fund.
The Wholesale Portfolio, in which the Fund invests, may borrow to invest in more
property or to develop property already held by the Wholesale Portfolio.
What is this?
This is a managed investment scheme.
Your money will be pooled with other investors’ money
and invested in various investments.
Booster Investment Management Limited (we, our or
us) will invest your money and charge you a fee for its
services. The returns you receive are dependent on the
investment decisions of Booster and the performance of the
investments.
The value of those investments may go up or down.
The types of investments and the fees you will be charged
are described in this document.
What will your money be invested in?
The Private Land and Property Fund (Fund) is listed on the
NZX Main Board (with the code PLP). The Fund provides
investors with an opportunity to obtain an investment
exposure primarily in a specialised portfolio of directly
held, unlisted, agricultural and horticultural land and other
property investments in New Zealand, which may be
supplemented with investments in industrial, commercial
and retail properties (including land, buildings, bearer
plants1, and plant and equipment). The Fund obtains its
property exposure by buying units in a separate wholesale
property fund managed by Booster – the Private Land and
Property Portfolio (Wholesale Portfolio) a fund within the
Booster Wholesale Scheme. Details of the property held by
the Wholesale Portfolio can be found in the
‘Other Material Information’ document located at
www.booster.co.nz
1 A bearer plant is a plant (such as a grape vine) that is used in the
production or supply of agricultural produce for more than one period.

More about the Fund
This Fund may not be suitable for all investors
due to the risks of volatility of returns, gearing
and concentration of investments. If you
are unsure, you should seek advice from
a financial adviser.
See Section 4 – What are the risks of investing? for an explanation of the risk indicator and for information about other risks
that are not included in the risk indicator. To help you clarify your own attitude to risk, you can seek financial advice or work
out your risk profile at www.sorted.org.nz/tools/investor-profiler/

2 Calculated daily as a percentage of the net asset value of the Fund.
The Fund may also incur interest and borrowing costs related to gearing undertaken by the Wholesale Portfolio.
For more information about the fees charged, see Section 5 – What are the fees?
Who manages the Private Land and Property
Fund?
Booster is the manager of the Fund. You’ll learn more about
us in Section 7 – Who is involved?
What are the returns?
The return on your investment comes from income
distributions made by the Fund, and from any change in
the Fund’s unit price. The unit price changes as net income
is earned (prior to being distributed), and as property
is revalued. The distribution is the result of net income
generated from rents and the crops produced on the land.
Because crop net income fluctuates, the distribution is not
set at a fixed rate and will vary.
We will aim to pay a quarterly distribution to investors of
any net cash income received from the Wholesale Portfolio
(after allowing for expenses). Eligible investors can choose
to reinvest their distributions by participating in the
Distribution Reinvestment Plan.
See Section 2 – How does this investment work? for more
information.
How can you get your money out?
You can make a request to Booster to withdraw some or
all of your investment in the Fund at any time. Withdrawals
from the Fund will only be processed on the first business
day of the month. There are minimum withdrawal amount
requirements and you must either maintain the amount that
is set as the Fund’s minimum on-going balance or withdraw
in full. If you make a withdrawal request directly with
Booster, a withdrawal fee will normally apply. See Section
5 – What are the fees?
Because the Fund invests in the Wholesale Portfolio, whose
investments by nature have relatively long sale timeframes,
there may be some circumstances in which processing of
withdrawal requests is delayed or suspended.
To mitigate this risk, the Fund and the Wholesale Portfolio
are managed to provide various sources of limited liquidity
for withdrawals.
Units in the Fund are quoted on the NZX Main Board, so
you can also sell your investment on the exchange if there
are interested buyers, in addition to being able to redeem
your investment directly with the Manager. The amount
you get may be less than the amount you invested.
We’ll explain how you can withdraw your investment in
Section 2 – How does this investment work?
How will your investment be taxed?
The Fund is a listed portfolio investment entity (Listed PIE)
for tax purposes.
The amount of tax that the Fund pays is calculated at the
rate of 28%. The Fund intends to pay a distribution on
a quarterly basis, which will include imputation credits
representing the tax it has paid. For a New Zealand resident
individual or trustee investor (other than a unit trust) that
has a marginal tax rate that is lower than the rate of tax
payable by the Fund, you may be able to apply the surplus
imputation credits against other income on which you are
required to pay tax.
See Section 6 – What taxes will you pay? for more
information.
Where can you find more key information?
Booster is required to publish quarterly updates for the
Fund. The updates show the returns, and the total fees
actually charged to investors, during the previous year.
The latest fund updates are available at www.booster.co.nz.
We will also give you copies of those documents on request.

Private Land and Property Fund4
2. How does this investment work?
The Fund has been established within the Booster
Investment Scheme 2 (Scheme), a managed investment
scheme that is registered under the Financial Markets
Conduct Act 2013.
Why invest
The key benefits of investing in the Fund include:
• Access to unlisted property investments.
Your money is combined with other investors’ money, to
give you access to a specialised investment portfolio of
unlisted New Zealand land and property investments.
This is achieved by investing in the Wholesale Portfolio
which holds the property investments directly.
Consistent with the Fund’s long- term approach, we
take an active interest in being a good steward of land
held by the Wholesale Portfolio, without compromising
its investment objective.
• Unlisted property investments have a different return
profile to listed investments
• Unlisted property is not usually subject to the same
rapid price changes as listed investments can be
due to changes in market sentiment.
• Unlisted property returns have a low correlation
with returns from other asset classes over the long
term, helping to reduce the overall volatility in
returns when combined with an existing investment
strategy. Agriculture and horticulture property also
provide diversification benefits when combined
with other traditional property investment types
such as commercial, industrial, retail, retirement
villages and residential.
• Ability to trade on-market
Units in the Fund can be bought and sold on the NZX
Main Board like shares in a company, provided there are
interested sellers and buyers. In addition to potentially
selling units on NZX, you can also apply to the Manager
to redeem.
• Combination of cash income and capital growth.
The Wholesale Portfolio receives regular rental income
from its leased property, and income from its contracts
to supply crops produced from land (which is passed
to the Fund by distribution), as well as offering the
potential for capital growth.
• An inflation hedge.
The income derived from underlying leased property
generally has an increase linked to inflation or above.
This means (all other things being equal) that both the
income and underlying asset value of property tends to
appreciate with inflation. This helps to preserve the real
value of your investment.
• Experience.
The investments are managed by experienced
professionals with support from industry specialists.
Further details of our experienced team can be found
in the ‘Other Material Information’ document on our
website www.booster.co.nz.
• Knowledge.
We keep you up to date about your investment with
regular reporting and you can easily access information
about your investment online.
• Tax benefits.
Tax is paid by the Fund at the rate of 28%. Imputation
credits on distributions allow those New Zealand
resident individual or trustee investors (other than a unit
trust) on lower tax rates to apply surplus imputation
credits against other taxable income they may have.
Investors should also receive an indirect tax timing
benefit from the depreciation the Wholesale Portfolio
claims on its property.

Private Land and Property Fund5
How it works
Booster Investment Scheme 2 (Scheme) is a managed
investment scheme established as a trust governed by a
Trust Deed, which is an agreement between the Manager
(Booster) and the Supervisor (Public Trust) describing
how the Scheme works and our responsibilities. Booster
is responsible for managing the Scheme and the Fund
and Public Trust supervises us to make sure we meet
our responsibilities and obligations. Public Trust has also
appointed a custodian to hold the investments on behalf
of investors. This structure is designed to ensure that
your interests are always put first.
When you invest your money in the Fund, you receive
‘units’. ‘Units’ represent your share of the investments in the
Fund. The ‘unit price’ shows what your share is worth at any
time. If the Fund’s investment value goes up, your units will
be worth more. If the value goes down your units will be
worth less. The Fund’s unit prices are published on
Booster’s website at www.booster.co.nz.
The return on your investment comes from any distributions
made by the Fund and any change in the value of your units.
The Manager will aim to pay quarterly distributions
to investors of any net cash income received from the
Wholesale Portfolio (after allowing for any other expenses).
The amount you receive will depend on the distributable
income of the Fund, the number of units you hold in the
Fund on the Record Date of the distribution and the
amount per unit to be distributed by the Fund. The
distribution amount can be reinvested into the Fund
to purchase further units or paid to your designated
account (your custodial account or nominated bank
account if no custodial account). For further information
about reinvesting distributions, refer to the section titled
‘Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)’.
Making investments
How do you invest?
You can invest in the Fund online by applying directly to
Booster at www.booster.co.nz, or through your financial
adviser. Units are issued by the Fund at its unit price.
Alternatively, you can buy units in the Fund on market at the
quoted price through an NZX Participant (such as a broker).
See www.nzx.com/services/market-participants for a list
of current NZX Participants. The quoted price on the NZX
Main Board may differ from the unit price provided by the
Fund and may be traded at a discount or premium to the
unit price, depending upon the availability of buyers and
sellers, their respective view of the underlying value of the
investments or their expected return from the Fund (refer
also to the Trading risk outlined in Section 4 below).
In addition to the above, eligible investors can choose
to reinvest their distributions by participating in the
Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP). Refer to the
‘Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)’ section for details.
Other funds managed by Booster (Booster Managed
Funds) also invest in the Fund, and are able to invest in
and withdraw from the Fund at any time (other than when
the Fund or Wholesale Portfolio has excess or insufficient
liquidity and has placed a restriction on all applications or
withdrawals).
The Booster Managed Funds may also trade in Fund units on
the NZX Main Board. For more information on how potential
conflicts of interest are managed see the ‘Other Material
Information’ document available at www.booster.co.nz.
When can you invest?
Investing by applying directly to Booster or through your
financial adviser
While you can apply to invest in the Fund at any time, new
units in the Fund will generally only be issued to investors
(other than Booster Managed Funds) once a month, on the
first business day of each month. Booster Managed Funds
will be issued units in the Fund as and when applications
are received. Whilst units would generally be issued once
a month, the Manager reserves the discretion to issue units
intra-month to investors where the aggregate demand
exceeds 100,000 units.
Applications received with complete information up to
10:00am on the first business day of the month will be
processed on the first business day of that month.
Any money received by Booster with an application to
invest in the Fund from an investor will be held in the
Fund’s application account until the new units are issued.
While the Fund will generally accept new investments
from investors once a month, as it invests in an unlisted
wholesale property fund, Booster reserves the right to
refuse to accept or to reduce an investor’s initial or further
investment application at its discretion. This may include if
the Fund or Wholesale Portfolio is carrying excess liquidity
and does not expect to have an opportunity to invest
application money in new investments within
60 days.
Buying units in the Fund on the NZX Main Board
(code PLP)
You can buy or sell units in the Fund on the market at any
time, provided there are interested sellers and buyers.
How much can you invest?
The minimum initial investment in the Fund is $500. While
you’re not required to make any further investments, you
can invest more directly with Booster at any time by making
additional investments (minimum $500), or buying units
on market.
While the maximum amount you invest is up to you, Booster
reserves the right to refuse to accept or reduce an investor’s
initial, further or existing investment in the Fund in order
to ensure that the Fund maintains its PIE eligibility status for
tax purposes. For more information, see the ‘Other Material
Information’ document available on our website at
www.booster.co.nz.
Booster may waive or vary the minimum investment
amounts at any time.
How do you pay?
If you are investing by applying directly to Booster or
through your financial adviser, you can make investments
by direct credit, direct debit or any other method
acceptable to Booster. Cash deposits will not be accepted.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)
Investors who are a resident in New Zealand and have an
address in New Zealand on the Fund register are eligible
to reinvest their distributions by participating in the DRP.
As participation in the DRP is voluntary, eligible investors are
free to opt-in or opt-out of the DRP at any time with prior
notice to the Manager (for direct investors) or Link Market
Services Limited (Unit Registrar) (for NZX investors). Further
information on the DRP can be found in the ‘Other Material
Information’ document located at www.booster.co.nz.
Private Land and Property Fund6
Selling your units on the NZX Main Board
Units in the Fund are quoted on the NZX Main Board, so
you can sell your investment through an NZX Participant
(such as a broker) or adviser if there are interested buyers.
Periodically, we can request (and require) investors whose
holdings are below the required minimum value to increase
their holdings, sell their units on the NZX, or redeem
their units directly with the Manager. We can also restrict
transfers where the transfer could result in the Fund losing
its PIE status.
In order to trade quoted units, you will need to have a
Common Shareholder Number (CSN), an Authorisation
Code (FIN) and a relationship with an NZX Participant.
The information below at ‘Withdrawing your investments’
does not apply if you are selling your units on market.
Withdrawing your investments
This section does not apply to the sale of the units on
the NZX
How do you withdraw?
You can request a withdrawal from the Fund, by contacting
us or by completing the appropriate withdrawal form
available by contacting Booster, or through your financial
adviser.
Units are redeemed at the Fund’s unit price.
When can you withdraw?
You can apply to withdraw from the Fund at any time.
Withdrawals from the Fund (other than Booster Managed
Funds) will only be processed on the first business day of
the month. Withdrawal requests from Booster Managed
Funds will be processed as and when they are received.
Withdrawal requests that have been made to and accepted
by Booster will normally be processed within five business
days of the first business day of the month, but could
take longer, depending on available liquidity to pay the
requested withdrawals.
Withdrawal requests received up to 10:00am on the first
business day of the month will be processed on the first
business day of that month.
Because the Fund invests in the Wholesale Portfolio, whose
investments by nature have relatively long sale timeframes,
there are some circumstances where we may delay or
suspend the payment of withdrawals (including for Booster
Managed Funds) if we believe that making payments is not
practicable or in the best interests of all investors in the
Fund. This includes where we consider that the redemption
price cannot be calculated in a fair manner, or there is
insufficient access to liquidity in the Fund (which excludes
any income in the Fund yet to be distributed to investors) to
satisfy a withdrawal request. To mitigate this risk, the Fund
and Wholesale Portfolio are managed to provide various
sources of limited liquidity for withdrawals. See Section 4
– What are the risks of investing? for further details.
How much can you withdraw?
The minimum withdrawal amount is $500.
Booster charges a withdrawal fee for making a withdrawal
of more than $50,000 from the Fund. See Section 5 – What
are the fees? for more information.
You’ll need to maintain the minimum on-going balance of
$500 in the Fund after any withdrawal. If your withdrawal
request takes you below this amount, you will need to either
top up your investment back to the minimum balance,
or withdraw fully from the Fund. If your balance falls below
the minimum balance, Booster reserves the right to pay the
balance of your investment less any tax and fees to your
designated account (your custodial account or nominated
bank account if no custodial account), and your investment
in the Fund will end.
Booster may waive or vary the minimum withdrawal
amounts and the minimum on-going balance amount
at any time.
Private Land and Property Fund7
Private Land and Property Fund
Investment objective and strategy
• The Fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with a
complementary and enhanced risk / return outcome compared
to traditional listed property investments.
• It aims to generate average annual long-term returns of about 6.5% p.a
(before tax and after all fees, charges and costs) over rolling 7 year
periods from a combination of income and capital gain as properties
reach full productive capability.
• Changes in the valuation of properties due to general property market
movements will also impact the return of the Fund but such returns are not
the primary objective of the Fund.
• The Fund aims to obtain an investment exposure primarily in a specialised
portfolio of directly held, unlisted agricultural and horticultural land and
property investments in New Zealand, which may be supplemented with
investments in industrial, commercial and retail properties.
• The Fund obtains its property exposure by buying units in the
Wholesale Portfolio.
• The Wholesale Portfolio, in which the Fund invests, may borrow to invest
in more property or to develop property already held. The level of gearing
can vary between 0-65% of the Wholesale Portfolio’s asset value.
• The level of diversification of the Wholesale Portfolio’s property
investments is expected to broaden over time, but currently has a
concentration of property in the wine industry across multiple regions
of New Zealand.
• To support its investment objective, the Wholesale Portfolio may enter
into transactions with other funds or parties that are either managed or
associated with Booster (such as leases to companies). Details of any
borrowings, related party transactions and a current list of property
holdings can be found in the ‘Other Material Information’ document on
www.booster.co.nz.

Statement of Investment Policy and Objectives (SIPO)
If you would like to learn more about the Fund, you can read the SIPO. The most current SIPO for the Fund can be found on
our website www.booster.co.nz.
We may change the SIPO from time to time without notifying you. We will consult with the Supervisor and give them
written notice of any changes before they take effect. Any material changes will be advised in the Booster Investment
Scheme 2 annual report.
Further information about the assets in the Fund can be found in the fund updates at www.booster.co.nz.
Details of the property held by the Wholesale Portfolio can be found in the ‘Other Material Information’ document on our
website www.booster.co.nz.
Private Land and Property Fund8
Booster intends the Wholesale Portfolio to acquire,
over time, investments across other industries and
with more counterparties which will broaden the level
of diversification if, and when, that is done. Current
holdings can be found in the ‘Other Material Information’
document at www.booster.co.nz.
• Distribution risk. This is the risk that the Wholesale
Portfolio does not pay distributions to the Fund and
therefore the Fund is not able to pay a distribution
to its investors, or that the level of distributable income
varies from time to time due for example to fluctuations
in crop yields or the market value of crops, to the extent
the fund’s income is linked to crop production.
• Manager risk. This is the risk that the Fund
underperforms because of the way we manage
the Fund’s or the Wholesale Portfolio’s investments.
• Revaluation timing risk. This risk applies to the value
of units reflected in the Fund’s unit price issued by
Booster. This is the risk that the value of the property
may increase or decrease markedly following periodic
valuation updates due to a lack of continuous
assessment of value by an active/listed market.
This may mean the price of your units does not always
fully reflect an independent market assessment of the
value of the property on any given day and so, if you
withdraw your investment, you may receive more or less
than if the property had been independently valued just
prior to that withdrawal.
To partly mitigate this risk, Booster will review the
valuation of property on at least a quarterly basis, and,
as far as practicable, the timing of the independent
review of property values will be spread across the
financial year.
Other specific risks
There are other factors, not already reflected in the risk
indicator that may significantly impact returns for investors.
• Climatic/environmental risk. This is the risk that
the annual return from the property or the value
of the property is adversely affected by climatic or
environmental events, such as drought, frost, hail,
excessive rainfall/humidity, storms or earthquakes.
Climate and environmental conditions cause crop
harvest volumes to vary from year to year.
Extreme weather events that have a material impact
on crop yields are anticipated to occur every few years,
whilst events such as earthquakes that materially impact
the land are expected to be rare. The magnitude of a
climatic or environmental event can range from
a small reduction in harvest volumes to an extreme event
destroying the full crop for the year, through to
a catastrophic event that permanently impairs the value
of the land or reduces the productive area of the land.
The climatic risks are mitigated as far as practical
by adoption of standard industry practices such
as securing sources of irrigation water, installation
of frost management, and proactive management of
the plants in response to weather forecast information.

Understanding the risk indicator
Managed funds in New Zealand must have a standard risk
indicator. The risk indicator is designed to help investors
understand the uncertainties both for loss and growth that
may affect their investment. You can compare funds using
the risk indicator.
4. What are the risks of investing?
The risk indicator for the Fund covered in this Product
Disclosure Statement can be found on page 2.
The risk indicator is rated from 1 (low) to 7 (high). The rating
reflects how much the value of the Fund’s assets goes up
and down (volatility). A higher risk generally means higher
potential returns over time, but more ups and downs along
the way.
To help you clarify your own attitude to risk, you can seek
financial advice or work out your risk profile at
www.sorted.org.nz/tools/investor-profiler/.
Note that even the lowest category does not mean a risk-
free investment, and there are other risks (described under
the heading “Other specific risks”) that are not captured by
this rating.
This risk indicator is not a guarantee of a Fund’s future
performance. The risk indicator is based on the returns data
for the five years to 31 December 2025. While risk indicators
are usually relatively stable, they do shift from time to time.
You can see the most recent risk indicator in the latest
fund update for the Fund. Fund updates are published
each quarter on www.booster.co.nz.
We believe that the period of returns used to calculate
the risk ratings may not be representative of the average
investment cycle for the Fund and therefore the risk
indicator shown may be different if calculated over longer
term investment periods.
General investment risks
Some of the things that may cause the Fund’s value to
move up and down, which affect the risk indicator, are:
• Market risk. This is the risk that the Fund experiences
losses due to factors that may adversely impact the
overall performance of financial markets and the
properties of the Wholesale Portfolio in which the Fund
invests, which in turn affects the amount or frequency
of distributions. These factors include, but are not
limited to, economic and regulatory conditions, political
events, environmental and technological issues.
• Concentration risk. This is the risk that the value of
the Fund’s investments falls more than the market as
a whole due to the Wholesale Portfolio’s investments
being concentrated in the property sector, or a
particular part of that sector (e.g. the wine sector),
and having exposure to a relatively small number
of property investments and counterparties which
reduces the level of diversification.
Potentially lower returns
Potentially higher returns
Higher risk
Lower risk
Private Land and Property Fund9
The key mitigation benefit to investors is the
geographical diversification by owning land across
multiple locations across multiple regions which
reduces the impact of any one event.
• Property related risks. This is the risk that property
specific factors (other than the climatic/environmental
risks described above) may have a material impact
on both the valuation of the Wholesale Portfolio’s
investments and the income from those investments
for distribution to investors. These factors may include
the quality of the property, their geographical location,
changes to current and expected future income from
the property, uncertainty of outcome of development
projects, unforeseen capital or repairs and maintenance
expenditure, inadequate insurance or the occurrence
of uninsurable events (for example, standard industry
practice is to not insure the loss of bearer plants due
to the cost of insurance being prohibitively expensive),
reliance on key persons in managing the investments
(particularly where land is used for crop production),
disease, or drop in demand for the crop, quality and
financial standing of contracted service providers, and
material changes to the supply and demand in land and
property markets.
While each of these individual risks has a low risk of
occurrence, they may have a significant impact on
the income from an individual property or its value.
We manage these risks through active management
of the land and properties held by the Wholesale
Portfolio, and importantly by increasing the level of
diversification of the investments held by the
Wholesale Portfolio.
• Counterparty credit risk. This is the risk that tenants
or contracted crop purchasers (Counterparties) fail
to meet their financial obligations to the Wholesale
Portfolio. Failure of Counterparties to meet these
obligations could impact on the cashflow and income
of the Wholesale Portfolio and the valuation of its
property investments, which would subsequently
impact on the Fund including potentially on its value
and ability to pay distributions. The Wholesale Portfolio
has exposure to Counterparties within the wine and
avocado industries which are as at the date of this PDS
experiencing challenging trading conditions which
in turn has led to an increase in credit risk for these
Counterparties. See the ‘Other Material Information’
document for current Wholesale Portfolio holdings and
which industries they are exposed to.
• Liquidity and withdrawal risk. This risk applies in
relation to withdrawing units through Booster. Unlisted
property investments by nature have relatively long
sale timeframes. As a result, there is a risk that the
Wholesale Portfolio may be unable to sell a property at
the desired time to fully meet an investor’s withdrawal
request or that property may need to be sold at a lower
value than its assessed market value in order to meet
withdrawal requests.
Booster seeks to ensure the Fund and Wholesale
Portfolio are managed to provide liquidity for
withdrawals, though liquidity is likely to be limited and
may not fully mitigate this risk. Sources of liquidity may
include holding a proportion of the Fund or Wholesale
Portfolio’s assets in cash or access to an undrawn
portion of a borrowing facility in the Wholesale
Portfolio (though this facility is primarily available to
implement the gearing strategy, not to provide liquidity
to investors). We also apply a withdrawal fee that
moderates demand for withdrawals.
In addition, the Wholesale Portfolio may hold separable
property titles in an area that the Manager believes
could be readily sold to meet liquidity requirements
if necessary, without compromising the investment
objectives of the Wholesale Portfolio.
• Gearing and interest rate risk. This is the risk that
while borrowing by the Wholesale Portfolio may
enhance the potential for increases in returns, adverse
market conditions such as rising interest rates,
economic downturns/reduction in property values, a
reduction in availability of credit/refinance of existing
loans on similar terms and conditions may lead to a
reduction in the net income of the Wholesale Portfolio,
and these circumstances may also give rise to a breach
of borrowing covenants, or affect the Wholesale
Portfolio’s ability to meet principal and/or interest
payments, or may lead to a forced sale of property in
the event the loan must be repaid.
Booster applies a borrowing limit to the Wholesale
Portfolio of no more than 65% of its asset value. We
aim to limit the amount of borrowing so that total
net borrowing costs do not exceed net cash returns.
Booster also monitors the interest rate and considers
fixing the interest rate for a defined period where
appropriate.
For more information on gearing and the Wholesale
Portfolio see the ‘Other Material Information’ and the
SIPO documents available on our website at
www.booster.co.nz.
• Trading risk. For those wishing to buy or sell units
directly on the NZX, there is a risk that you may be
unable to find a buyer or seller, or that the quoted price
for your units is higher or lower than the unit price.
This is particularly the case when the Fund is generally
open for the issue and redemption of units on a monthly
basis via the Manager, meaning there may be a reduced
number of buyers or sellers on the NZX.
In addition, there is a risk that, in certain circumstances,
trading of the Fund’s units may be suspended, or the
Fund’s units removed from quotation on the NZX.
Suspension or removal may occur where the Manager
has failed to fully comply with the NZX rules, which the
Manager considers to be unlikely given the governance
and compliance framework in place to ensure its NZX
obligations are met.
Private Land and Property Fund10
Individual action fees
Contribution fee
Booster does not charge an entry fee.
Your financial adviser, with your agreement, may charge
you other fees for the services they provide to you. These
fees may include an entry fee on each investment amount.
If an entry fee is charged, at your instruction it will be
deducted from each investment amount before your money
is invested in the Fund and paid to your financial adviser on
your behalf.
If you buy units in the Fund through an NZX Participant
(such as a broker), they may also charge you a fee.
Withdrawal fee
As outlines below, Booster charges a withdrawal fee on
part or all of your investment withdrawn from the Fund.
The fee charged is based on the sum of all amounts you
have withdrawn from the Fund in the previous rolling 12
months. If you hold multiple accounts, in the same legal
entity or with the same legal ownership, the withdrawal
fee applicable will be based on the TOTAL amount of
withdrawals made by the same legal entity/beneficial
owner over that period.
This fee is deducted from the withdrawal amount and paid
to the Fund.
You will be charged fees for investing in the Fund. Fees
are deducted from your investment and will reduce your
returns.
If Booster invests in other funds, those funds may charge
fees. The fees you pay will be charged in two ways:
• regular charges (for example, annual fund charges).
Small differences in these fees can have a big impact on
your investment over the long term;
• one-off fees (for example, the withdrawal fee).
5. What are the fees?
Annual fund charges
Fee typeAmount (%)
Management fee
Other management and
administration charges:
In fund costs (estimate)
Property operating expenses (estimate)
1.00%
0.10%
0.12%
Total annual fund charge (estimate) 1.22%
The total annual fund charges are all fees and costs charged
by any person in respect of the Fund other than one-off fees
relating to individual actions (such as the withdrawal fee).
These include:
A management fee. This fee, payable to Booster, covers
the costs of managing and administering the Fund, which
include administration, accounting and custodian fees,
and ongoing marketing expenses. It is calculated daily as
a percentage of the net asset value of the Fund and paid
monthly. This fee also covers the management fees of any
fund in which the Fund may invest other than performance-
based fees, of which there are currently none.
Other management and administration charges.
In Fund Costs. These charges are capped at 0.10% per year
(but may be less in the future) and include the Supervisor’s
fee and an estimate for other costs, disbursements, charges
or expenses incurred directly or indirectly by Booster and
the Supervisor (such as audit fees and legal fees). They are
calculated daily as a percentage of the net asset value of
the Fund and paid monthly. These charges are not payable
to Booster.
Property Operating Expenses. These are the direct costs
of ownership and operating the individual properties of the
Wholesale Portfolio. This includes (but is not limited to)
valuations and other property related costs and associated
professional fees. The property operating expenses are
estimated as a percentage of net assets of the Fund.
Note that the objective of an average annual long-term
return from the Fund of 6.5% p.a. over rolling 7 year periods
is after all fees, charges, and costs (including interest and
borrowing costs).
Example of how fees apply to an investor
Alex invests $10,000 in the Private Land and Property Fund.
Alex is not charged an establishment fee or a contribution
fee. This means that the starting value of Alex’s investment
is
$10,000.
Alex is charged management fees of
$100 and incurs
administration and property operating expenses of about
$22, which work out to a total of about
$122 (1.22% of
$10,000). These fees might be more or less if Alex’s account
balance has increased or decreased over the year.
Estimated total expenses for the first year
Individual action fees: $0 (other than any financial adviser
fees or NZX Participant fees that may be payable by Alex)
Fund charges:
$122

Private Land and Property Fund11
The Fund is a Listed PIE. The amount of tax that the Fund
pays is calculated at the rate of 28% on its taxable income.
The Fund intends to pay a distribution on a quarterly basis,
which will include imputation credits to the extent it has
paid tax. If you are a New Zealand resident individual or
trustee investor (other than a unit trust) and your marginal
tax rate is less than 28%, you can choose to include the
fully imputed distribution in your tax return, and apply the
surplus tax credits against other income on which you are
required to pay tax.

Booster must publish a fund update for the Fund showing
the fees actually charged during the most recent year.

Other costs and expenses
The Fund returns may also be impacted by interest and
borrowing costs related to gearing undertaken by the
Wholesale Portfolio.
These are the interest costs and any fees associated with
the implementation or amendment of borrowing facilities.
Gearing is an effective and common method of increasing
the returns earned on property investment, subject to
the risks described in Section 4 – What are the risks of
investing?
The interest and borrowing costs are estimated to be 2.81%
of the net assets of the Fund assuming a gearing ratio of
40% is reached (noting the gearing level as at the date
of this PDS is lower than 40%). See the ‘Other Material
Information’ document located at www.booster.co.nz
for further details of the gearing of the Fund and any loan
facility agreements in place at a certain point in time, and
other relevant assumptions.
These expenses are not considered to be Fund charges (as
outlined above) but are disclosed here to provide investors
an understanding of the nature and amount of the expenses
that the Fund (or Wholesale Portfolio) incurs.
