Fisher & Paykel Appliances Holdings Limited
FISHER & PAYKEL APPLIANCES HOLDINGS LIMITED TARGET COMPANY STATEMENT — IN RELATION TO A TAKEOVER OFFER BY HAIER NEW ZEALAND INVESTMENT HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED — 4 OCTOBER 2012 For personal use only For personal use only COVER: PHASE 7 DISHDRAWER TM DISHWASHER FISHER & PAYKEL APPLIANCES HOLDINGS LIMITED TARGET COMPANY STATEMENT CHAIRMAN’S LETTER 03 TARGET COMPANY STATEMENT (TAKEOVERS CODE DISCLOSURES) 07 SCHEDULE 1 — 4 25 For personal use only APPENDIX: INDEPENDENT ADVISER’S REPORT 37 CHAIRMAN’S LETTER For personal use only CHAIRMAN’S LETTER P3 Dear Shareholder Haier New Zealand Investment Holding Company Limited (“Haier”) has offered $1.20 per share to buy your shares in Fisher & Paykel Appliances Holdings Limited (“FPA”) by means of a formal takeover offer (the Offer“ ”). •• INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS RECOMMEND DO NOT ACCEPT HAIER’S OFFER •• The independent directors of FPA (Dr Keith Turner, Mr Philip Lough, Ms Lynley Marshall and Mr Bill Roest) (the “Independent Directors”) unanimously recommend that shareholders do not accept the Offer from Haier. In making their recommendation, the Independent Directors have carefully considered a full range of expert advice available to them. Therefore you should take no action. The principal reasons for recommending that shareholders do not accept are: _ Having regard to a full range of expert advice now available to the Independent Directors (including the Independent Adviser’s valuation range of $1.28 to $1.57 per FPA Share), the Independent Directors consider that the Offer of $1.20 per FPA Share does not adequately reflect their view of the value of FPA based on their confidence in the strategic direction of the Company; and _ FPA is in a strong financial position and, as the Independent Adviser notes, FPA is at a “relatively early stage of implementation of the company’s comprehensive rebuilding strategy”. -

JOINT INDUSTRY COMMENTS on WEEE2 Draft Implementing Regulation establishing a Common Methodology for the Calculation of “the weight of EEE placed on the national market in each Member State” and a Common Methodology for the Calculation of the “Quantity of WEEE Generated by Weight in each Member State” Brussels, 7 February 2017 In view of the upcoming vote on 13th February 2017 of the members of the Technical Adaptation Committee, we would like to provide the following observations on the latest draft Commission Implementing Regulation establishing a common methodology for the calculation of “the weight of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) placed on the national market in each Member State” and a common methodology for the calculation of “the quantity of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) generated by weight in each Member State”: • We thank the Commission for its efforts to establish common methodologies both for the calculation EEE POM and WEEE generated collection targets. On the one hand, these methodologies are crucial to ensure a clear and harmonised implementation of the collection target in each Member State. On the other hand, it is essential that the methodologies lead to fair targets, which are based on objective, clear and transparent criteria. Member States are of course free to choose, which of the two approaches they use to demonstrate the achievement of the collection rate from 2019 onwards. • We fully support the following changes made by the Commission compared to the 2015 draft version: o Calculation of the weight of EEE placed on the market of a Member State (POM) – Article 3 of the Draft Implementing Regulation: it is now clear that the first source of information is the information provided by the producers. -
CECED Comments on ACER FG on Electricity Balancing
25 June 2012 CECED input to the Consultation on ACER’S Framework Guidelines on Electricity Balancing Smart Grids are considered one of the key investment areas for a sustainable future: they are a tool for optimising energy production and usage by exploiting flexibility in the supply and demand of electricity. On the demand side, household appliances count for about 30% of energy consumption in residential premises, therefore they are one of the best candidates to become “smart”, i.e. built to interact with Smart Grids. CECED1 represents the household appliance industry, a relevant partner in the development of Smart Grids in Europe. We believe that as more and more appliances become smart, a significant curtailment of consumption will be possible upon request at collective or individual level. It implies a contribution to grid balancing through implementation of Demand-Response programs. In short, if well managed, smart appliances can allow the consumer to play a significant role in controlling the demand side with minimum impact on his/her needs and habits in a properly designed smart grid. CECED is convinced that demand-side resources will play a major role in the stability and performance of future European energy networks if relevant decisions are taken with respect to system requirements. Such decisions will have significant implications, at political, technical, and economic levels for consumers and the development of demand side resources’ market in Europe. The rules for trading the provision of system balancing services, including power reserve rules, should allow for demand side response, while ensuring effective competition and benefit for customers. -

Petition by Nicole Putnam Ocala, FL Monster Aquaria Network is made up of three aquarium hobby sites and their respective forums: MonsterFishKeepers.com, AquariaCentral.com, and Aquatic-Photography.com. The Monster Fish Keepers™ Class 38 trademark "M" has been registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office since October of 2007. On February 24th, Monster Energy Company sent a cease and desist letter asking that the "M" logo be dropped from clothing, accessories and stickers. Along with advertising, this merchandise is a source of revenue for Monster Aquaria Network which defrays the cost of maintaining the sites. Monster Energy Company feels that the "M" logo constitutes trademark infringement and would cause customers confusion with their own MONSTER™, MONSTER ENERGY®, and MONSTER “Claw M®” registered trademarks. (It is unlikely that consumers would mistake a brand marketed to the keepers of large fish in specialty online sites and aquarium stores, for a brand marketed to regular customers in sports facilities and typical grocery and retail establishments.) The cease and desist letter was in response to MFK filing for a Class 25 trademark (clothing, footwear, and headgear). -
