GENERAL: NZX: Settlement of IRD tax audit

As outlined in NZX's previous financial statements, the IRD commenced a tax
audit of NZX in November 2012. The audit has been ongoing since then and
relates to the income tax returns for the years ended 31 December 2008 to
2010.  As disclosed in NZX's 30 June 2014 financial statements, in March 2014
the IRD issued Notices Of Proposed Adjustment in relation to certain items.

NZX advises that it has agreed a settlement in principle with the IRD in
respect of these matters.  As a result, NZX's annual financial statements for
the year ended 31 December 2014 will include a provision of $1.2m to account
for the tax and estimated use of money interest payable pursuant to the
settlement.  This settlement will conclude the tax audit.
