Explanatory Note 1 - Election of Director Carmel Fisher BCA Director Carmel Fisher established Fisher Funds Management Limited in 1998 and is also a director of Kingfish and Barramundi. Carmel's interest and involvement in the New Zealand share market spans nearly 30 years and she is widely recognised as one of New Zealand's pre-eminent investment professionals. Carmel's career started when she left Victoria University with an accounting degree to spend four years in the sharebroking industry. She then managed funds for Prudential Portfolio Managers and Sovereign Asset Management before launching Fisher Funds. Carmel's principal place of residence is Auckland and she can be contacted at Marlin's registered office. Explanatory Note 2 - Directors' Remuneration This resolution proposes an increase of $5,000 in the total pool of directors' fees from $120,000 to $125,000 per annum. The proposed $5,000 increase is to Andy Coupe's remuneration. During the year Andy assumed the additional responsibility of Chair of the Investment Committee. The Board believes that this increase is fair and reasonable to the company and shareholders. Directors have not received a fee increase since the company listed in November 2007. No increase in directors' fees is proposed for any other director. Directors recommend that shareholders vote to approve this resolution, but will not be exercising their own shareholding votes or discretionary proxy votes on this resolution.
