First NZ Capital Securities is acting as Arranger and Joint Lead Manager of the offer, Craigs Investment Partners as Joint Lead Manager and ANZ, Bank of New Zealand and Forsyth Barr as Co-Managers.

Application has been made to NZX for permission to list the Bonds on the NZDX.

Investors seeking an allocation of Bonds and wanting to obtain a Prospectus for this offer should contact an NZX firm or their financial advisor. Applications must be made on the Application Form included in the Prospectus or, if investors are subscribing for bonds through the priority pool, on a Priority Pool Application Form obtained from the Registrar.
