PROCEDURAL NOTES Voting Shareholders may exercise their right to vote on all or any matters to be voted on at a meeting in a number of ways, as set out below.

Postal Voting Shareholders may cast a postal vote by completing and sending the Postal Voting Form (included in the meeting papers) to the Secretary.

Postal Votes must reach the Secretary no later than 9.00 am on Wednesday 8 December 2021.

Immediately after the closing time for the receipt of Postal Votes, the Secretary shall count the number of shareholders voting and the number of votes cast in favour of, and against, each resolution.

A certificate attesting that this has been done shall be made available to the Chairman of the meeting.

2

Voting at the Meeting For resolutions on which postal votes have been cast, the Chairman may choose to call for a vote on shareholding at the meeting for these resolutions.

A vote on shareholding must also be held if not less than five persons present in person at the meeting, and having the right to vote, so demand.

A shareholder who has sent in a Postal Vote on a resolution by the due date may not also vote at the meeting.

For a vote on shareholding at the meeting, the Voting Form included in this package will be used.

Completed Voting Forms will be scrutinised to determine whether shareholders have earlier exercised their right to vote via Postal Voting.

The Secretary shall count the number of votes cast in favour of, and against, each resolution.

The votes cast at the meeting shall be

combined with the Postal Votes to give the final result.

For all other matters to be voted on, voting shall be by a show of hands.

Proxies The Constitution permits shareholders who are unable to attend the meeting to appoint a proxy.

Forms for appointing a proxy are enclosed in this package of documents.

No person shall vote as attorney or proxy at the meeting unless a copy of the power of attorney, or notice of appointment of proxy properly completed, is lodged at the office of the Incorporation no later than 9.00 am on Wednesday 8 December 2021.

Ātihau-Whanganui Incorporation VIRTUAL ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING General Information

This year our Annual General Meeting is going to be delivered 100% Virtually. This wasn’t an easy decision, but was made with the health and safety of people in mind.

Why Virtual?

The current Alert Level 2 restrictions limit us to no more than 100 people attending a venue at anyone time. To hold an in-person AGM we would need to be spread across at least seven venues to fit everyone in, which just isn’t feasible.

We also considered the low vaccination rates in the Whanganui area, the contagious nature of the Delta Variant and the ongoing risk of Covid 19 spreading outside of Auckland and the Waikato, and decided an in-person AGM was putting people at risk.

Finally the situation is very uncertain at the moment, and is every changing. By deciding to go with an 100% virtual AGM we can at least provide some certainty around the AGM, and give people plenty of time to prepare.

How will I access the AGM?

The AGM will be able to be accessed online through the website https://www.virtualmeeting.co.nz/atihau21 . All you will need to enter is your full name, an email address and phone number.

How will I vote?

Voting can be done via postal voting, through a nominated proxy, or online during the meeting. To vote online you will need your shareholder number and post code. Once online, click get a voting card, enter your shareholder number and post code, and then vote on the voting card provided. You can edit your vote throughout the meeting and once you are happy with it, Click Submit Vote and your vote will be counted. Votes must be submitted to be counted.

Your Shareholder Number and Post Code How do I vote online?

Once logged in, click Get a Voting Card, follow the instructions and once you’ve voted click Submit Vote to finalised Can I vote any other way?

Can I ask a question?

Yes, Once logged in, click ask a question, and follow the instructions.

Can I ask questions?

To ask a question you will need you shareholder number and post code. Click the Ask a Question Tab, type out the Question and then submit the question. If you have a follow up question you can ask this by repeating this process.

What about a Vote on Shareholding – Poll Voting?

The Constitution allows for a vote on shareholding so long five (5) or more people present at the meeting and having the right to vote at the meeting request it.

During the online meeting this will be administered through the “Ask a Question” function. If 5 or more people request a vote on shareholding/poll voting throughout the meeting, then voting will be on shareholding rather than a show of hands.

What about the Kaumātua Grant?

We intended to pay the Kaumātua Grant for costs associated with hosting the virtual meeting at home, so long as this is approved at the meeting. Shareholders will need to login to receive this koha.

Will we get to hear from board candidates at the AGM?

We are intending to conduct interviews with each candidate and share these ahead of the AGM on the Ātihau Facebook page.

This way those shareholders not comfortable with the online voting system can see the candidates before sending in postal votes.

This is the first time we have run an online AGM so will be running a few tutorials on the Facebook page ahead of the meeting. Feel free to contact the Whanganui Office and arrange a time to come in, and have a practice run with us if you need to.

Ngā mihi nui – see you at the AGM.

Ātihau-Whanganui Incorporation CANDIDATE PROFILE Murray Haitana

Tena kotou katoa, Ko Murray Haitana ahau, We the descendants of Atihau land, have a duty, to look after it.

Our land needs us now. Some of you know there is something wrong and many of you may not know the trouble our land is facing, these problems if not solved, have dire consequences for us, as a people.

The direction it is heading right now, is into financial oblivion.

The corporate structure and ownership, are the ones leading the dog, off to be put down.

An effort is being made behind the scenes, to bring transparency, Justice and mana, back to the Governance of our land. To grow our people, we need sustenance from our land, not their debt to choke on.

Under Te Ture, not the administrator’s corporate fiction, you have a duty to your ancestral land. Go back to plant your food, go back to hunt, go back to provide for your whanau. Our administrators provide for themselves, not for the people.

As a farmer that had a background in profitable farming, providing for the owners, I know the only direction that provides for us, is to have a significant change, the head is rotten.

Nga mihi kia kotou katoa Murray Haitana.

I for one, refuse for the administrators of our land to shackle us with Tens of Millions of dollars of debt, because of their incompetence and willingness, to continue building their temples.

8

This board have taken your land from you already, and placed it into a corporate body, if you consider our land to be a dog, then we the people, are simply just fleas on its back.

Under our constitutional rights of He Whakaputanga our unextinguishable rights to our land, that makes us unalienable, go back and occupy your ancestral land!

Ātihau-Whanganui Incorporation CANDIDATE PROFILE Keria Ngakura Ponga

SEEKING YOUR VOTE TO ĀTIHAU WHANGANUI INCORPORATION WHAT DRIVES ME My aspirations for our mokopuna are to live in a world of unlimited opportunities, and for our people to realise their full potential.

I am an experienced Governor with a longterm record that shows my commitment to Iwi, our community, and the social and economic development of our rohe.

I have served two terms on the Ātihau Whanganui Incorporation and have been working proactively on your behalf. During my tenure I have been the chair of Te Āti Hau Trust, a current member of the Audit and Risk Committee, and the 50th Anniversary celebrations organising committee. I have lobbied for the re-establishment of the Farm Committee and committed to AWHI’s ‘taiao strategy’ to implement better farming and organisational practices.

My professional background in business mentoring, and in-depth knowledge of the machinery of government provides extended skills for AWHI. I am active in the region’s economic development space with significant networks across several sectors.

I am honoured to have served my people in positions that I hold and have held, and I am humbled by the confidence placed in me with my recent appointment together with Turama Hawira to the Office of Te Pou Tupua.

I remain resolute in my endeavours to strive for a brighter future for all our tamariki and mokopuna.

With your support, I look forward to representing your interests.

MAKING MOKOPUNA DECISIONS

I believe in open and transparent communication and come with a strong sense of making ethical and moral decisions. If successful, my focus for the next three years will be on: 1. Debt reduction to alleviate shareholder concerns 2. AWHI’s commitment to increase the number of contracts for uri 3. Greater participation of shareholders and uri in the business of AWHI through stakeholder engagements

Ātihau-Whanganui Incorporation CANDIDATE PROFILE Dr Brendon Te Tiwha Puketapu

STANDING FOR ĀTIHAU WHANGANUI INCORPORATION BOARD ELECTION 2021 My name is Brendon Te Tiwha Puketapu. My parents are Toreiheikura (Paamu-Tinirau) and Tamihana Puketapu. Tēnei au e mihi kau ana ki te iti me te rahi ko kautau ko tātau ngā uri e whakapapa mai ana i Kahui Maunga ki Tangaroa.

I am seeking your support to continue my involvement and contributions as a member of the Committee of Management for our Incorporation.

With this request, I acknowledge our tūpuna and their initiative to resume and retain the lands within the stewardship of our Incorporation. We follow in their footsteps, to ensure our relationships to people and place are upheld. At the same time, they would expect us to advance with thoughtful initiative in order to successfully resume the lease lands through careful planning, debt management and sound investment.

Today, we are still farming. We are doing okay and extending our interests in other land-based activities. Tomorrow, we will continue to improve the performance of our farms and strengthen the care and wellbeing of our whenua, our water and our people.

10

I offer common sense, useful skills and successful experience in governance and management, a reasonable knowledge and understanding of our land and its use, a respect for the past, a line of sight on the future and the wherewithal for action in the present.

If service to our people, our shareholders and our beneficiaries is important to you and at the forefront of your mind then I welcome and invite your support.

“E rere kau mai i te awa nui, mai i te kahui maunga ki Tangaroa.

Ko au te awa ko te awa ko au”.

He uri ahau nō Iwi o Te Atihaunui-a-Paparangi, nō Nga Rauru me Ngati Rangi.

Ko Jenny Tamakehu ahau: I am 1 of 4 daughters and 5 brothers of Waati Tamakehu and Flossie Ranginui, a mum of two sons.

I currently hold a property management portfolio.

My whanau whānui hold interests in several blocks in and around Matahiwi / Ohotu, much of it now vested in the Incorporation.

These connections have enriched my keen interest in ngā kōrero tuku iho ngā Tūpuna, whānau and whenua bound together by the ever-interlacing strands of whakapapa. All elements of which need to be nourished, handed down, and retained for our future generations to thrive.

Actively involved with my marae and hapu for many years I proudly acknowledge my grandparents Pokairangi Ranginui and Heeni Matene (Manson) who through their unfailing commitment remained as one of very few, who maintained the historical links to the whenua (via lease) from the Māori Land Council to the Maori Land Board, to the Maori Trustee and finally to the Atihau Incorporation.

Covid has seen our world change and adapt - A time for us to stop slowdown from the global race, to take in and redefine who we are, to appreciate and prioritise what we have.

I believe the Incorporation could shift with these times and extend on its support to shareholders, this being one Kaupapa I think I could achieve some good results. With that in mind the Incorporation to date, has been an enduring example now in its 50th year of what can be achieved. I would like to be a part of making the future even better for Atihau- Whanganui Iwi shareholders.

Aside from my involvement on whanau land trusts I have varied previous governance experience from the following Iwi Trusts, Te Whiringa Muka Iwi Fisheries and Pakaitore Iwi Trust.

The Board Recommends shareholders vote for this resolution.

Moved: SH7208 Rex Mareikura

Seconded: SH16515 Novena McGuckin - carried.

ROBUST DISCUSSION THEN FOLLOWED FROM THE FLOOR SH18649 Soraya Peke-Mason:

Suggest amendments to the wording for the Committees consideration – 1. Amend to (such as using audio/visual and or other electronic technology, in extreme circumstance. For example covid 19).

2. Add to the end of the sentence “and part of the quorum and that for the benefit of kaumātua a special location with covid restrictions be made available with technology”.

John Unsworth responded accordingly:

1. If you put in “extreme circumstances eg covid” then what is the definition of “extreme”? At which point do you reach extreme or not quite extreme. That is the difficulty lawyers have.

2. Your second point is well made but is around mechanics and about making it work for everybody and allowing the facilitation of a meeting by way of audio/visual link.

Procedurally we have a special resolution on the floor, people

14

are voting on this resolution. If the resolution passes then that’s the resolution, however that does not stop a revisit and consideration at next year’s AGM.
