GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES

Nimble employs best practices to ensure a sound governance environment as a base from which to run the
business.

The Board of Directors retains full and effective control over all Group companies and assumes overall
responsibility for corporate governance, which is held in high regard as fundamentally important to:

Ensure the future sustainability of the company;
Enhance long-term shareholder value creation; and
Ensure that key stakeholders such as employees, clients, funders, suppliers and regulators, benefit from
Nimble’s ongoing success.

THE BOARD

Headed by our Chairman - as elected by the non-executive directors, and includes four independent non-
executive directors and two executive directors.
A number of Committees have been established to assist in carrying out its responsibilities.

The Board and its Committees are fully functional, and all of its members are suitably experienced and
qualified to fulfill their duties and add value to the business.
The requirement is for members to meet a minimum of four times a year and more frequently if required.
Governance processes are reviewed on an ongoing basis to align with legislative and regulatory changes and
to reflect best industry practice.
