Disclaimer

This document does not constitute a recommendation by ANZ National Bank Limited, Craigs Investment Partners Limited, Forsyth Barr Limited or Westpac Banking Corporation, acting through its New Zealand branch (together the “Joint Lead Managers”), Trustees Executors Limited (“Bond Trustee”) or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Joint Lead Managers, the Bond Trustee or Z Energy Limited (“Issuer”) to subscribe for, or purchase, any of the Bonds. None of the Issuer (except as required by law), the Joint Lead Managers or the Bond Trustee, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, accepts any liability whatsoever for any loss arising from this document or its contents or otherwise arising in connection with the Offer.

This document is for preliminary informational purposes only and is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to purchase or subscribe for the Bonds and no part of it shall form the basis of or be relied upon in connection with any contract or commitment whatsoever. The information in this document is given in good faith and has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable and accurate at the date of preparation, but its accuracy, correctness and completeness cannot be guaranteed. You should not decide to purchase the Bonds until you have read the Simplified Disclosure Prospectus dated 4 July 2012 relating to the Bonds.

The Issuer intends to offer the Bonds to the public in New Zealand. No action has been or will be taken by the Issuer which would permit an offer of Bonds, or possession or distribution of any offering material, in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required (other than New Zealand).

The Bonds are senior, secured, fixed rate debt obligations of the Issuer. The Bonds rank equally with each other and the existing Series of bonds issued by the Issuer. Bondholders and Z Energy’s banks share the same security on an equal ranking basis, with both groups ranking behind security held by suppliers of crude oil and refined products over products each of them has supplied, and their proceeds, to the extent that it has not received payment of the purchase price, and behind statutorily preferred creditors and (in certain circumstances) other working capital providers.

Application has been made to NZX Limited (“NZX”) for permission to quote the Bonds on the NZDX market and all the requirements of NZX relating thereto that can be complied with on or before the date of distribution of this document have been duly complied with. However, NZX accepts no responsibility for any statement in this document. NZX is a registered exchange, and the NZDX is a registered market, each regulated under the Securities Markets Act 1988.

Capitalised terms used in this document and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the Simplified Disclosure Prospectus. No applications will be accepted or money received unless the subscriber has received the Simplified Disclosure Prospectus.

Defining characteristic of the New Zealand fuels market is the relative stability of consumption and the muted impact of price over the long termConsumption more recently has declined, potentially as a result of general economic downturn

Page 14: Retail Bond Presentation (FINAL) 2012.07.09 - Z is for New Ze4 Offer highlights Issuer Z Energy Limited Bonds Senior, secured, fixed rate bonds Security Equal ranking with Z Energy’s

14

Financial position

Significant headroom in relation to existing covenants

Assuming total debt (including fair value of derivatives) as at 31 March 2012 of $410m, Covenant EBITDA would need to fall by ~ $38m (22%) to breach the bank covenant and ~$58m (33%) to breach the Bond Covenant

Guidance has been provided that Z Energy anticipates Current Cost earnings to be higher in the financial year ended 31 March 2013 than the financial year ended 31 March 2012

Group and security structure

Z Energy Group members provide security to the Bondholders, Banks and crude oil and refined product providers

Z Energy – main operating entityZ Energy Holdings - 17.14% holding in NZRC

Page 16: Retail Bond Presentation (FINAL) 2012.07.09 - Z is for New Ze4 Offer highlights Issuer Z Energy Limited Bonds Senior, secured, fixed rate bonds Security Equal ranking with Z Energy’s

Bond security structure

The Bond Security Structure remains unchanged from the two previous issues

Equal Ranking Security Rights

Z Energy has bond and bank debt, with both sets of lenders sharing the same security on an equal ranking basis, including this issueGenerally, Bondholders’ Security rights will be amended (without Bondholder consent) if the Banks agree to the amendmentIf the Banks release the Security completely, Bondholders’ Security rights will be replaced by a negative pledge, equivalent to what the Banks receive at that time

Security consists of at least 95% of the assets of the group by value and by contribution to EBITDA

The Bonds are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Aotea Energy Limited, Z Energy Holdings Limited, Z Energy Limited, Harbour City Property Investments Limited, Mini Fuels & Oils Limited and Greenstone Energy Finance Limited (“Guarantors”)The guarantee is secured over all assets of the Guarantors, except for certain excluded assetsThe ultimate owners of the Z Energy Group, New Zealand Superannuation Fund and Infratil, do not guarantee the Bonds

A key protection for Bondholders is the cross default provision, and that they share the proceeds of Security enforcement with the Banks on an equal ranking basis

Page 17: Retail Bond Presentation (FINAL) 2012.07.09 - Z is for New Ze4 Offer highlights Issuer Z Energy Limited Bonds Senior, secured, fixed rate bonds Security Equal ranking with Z Energy’s

17

Priority of security

Existing crude oil and refined product suppliers have prior ranking security over products they have supplied to Z Energy (and the proceeds of these products) for which they have not been paid. Bondholders and Banks then rank equally. In certain circumstances, other working capital providers/funders may also obtain priority.

In addition, if an Event of Default occurs and Z Energy is to continue trading:

In practice, it will need to continue to procure products, and it may need to grant priority over those products to the relevant suppliers/working capital providers The Bond Trustee may, if it considers it in the best interests of Bondholders as a whole, allow any supplier/working capital provider to take priority over relevant productsNo such arrangement exists at present

Priority of repayments of working capital during breach of Bond Covenant

In practice, any repayment of the Banks' Facilities before security enforcement will repay working capital facility and hedging obligations firstOnly when these and similar amounts are repaid, will core bank debt be repaidIf security is enforced before the Debt Covenant breach is remedied, Banks and Bondholders share (a) security enforcement proceeds, and (b) core bank debt prepayments made after the breach occurred, in proportion to the total amount of debt each providesProportional sharing of core debt repayments does not apply to repayments of working capital or hedging obligations, or to scheduled repayments of core bank debt

Page 18: Retail Bond Presentation (FINAL) 2012.07.09 - Z is for New Ze4 Offer highlights Issuer Z Energy Limited Bonds Senior, secured, fixed rate bonds Security Equal ranking with Z Energy’s

18

Bondholders have the right to require repayment if there is:

A Change of Control of a key Z Energy Group entityPut option triggered if Infratil and the New Zealand Superannuation Fund, together with associates, cease to hold or control, in aggregate, more than 50% of the voting rights in the entityPut option not triggered if the Change of Control is an IPO

Events of DefaultBreach of Bond Covenant – currently Debt (excl. working capital)< 3.5x Current Cost EBITDA on two consecutive test dates

The 3.5x varies with the bank covenants (plus 0.5x) but may not rise above 4.0xBank covenant currently 3.0x (2012 calendar year)

Material change of core business or breach of distribution stopper not remedied within 30 daysAcceleration of the obligation to repay other debt exceeding $10m (cross default) or enforcement of the security Other typical events of default for Bonds of this nature – refer to the SDP for more detail

Z Energy has no contractual right to repay early
