Correction to Proxy Form for the company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting to be held on 29 November 2013.

We have noted a typographical error in the Proxy Form for the company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting to be held on 29 November 2013. A corrected version of the proxy form is attached to this notice.

Resolution 6. On the Proxy Form refers to ratification of the issue of 10,000,000 shares whereas the Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum refer to the ratification of the issue of 11,111,111 shares. The correct number of shares is 11,111,111.

I confirm that the Company will accept any proxy vote on Resolution 6 as valid where the shareholder has used the Proxy Form included with the meeting materials previously provided to them. If they wish, shareholders entitled to vote may choose to download and print the attached amended Proxy Form. Please return the completed amended Proxy Form in accordance with the Proxy Form Instructions.

If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to contact me either by phone or email.

Proxy Form Instructions

Proxy, representative and voting entitlement instructions

Proxies and representatives

Shareholders are entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. Where a shareholder is entitled to cast two or more votes at the meeting, they may appoint two proxies. Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy may be appointed to represent a specific proportion or number of votes the shareholder may exercise. If the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes. The proxy may, but need not, be a shareholder of the Company.

Shareholders who are a body corporate are able to appoint representatives to attend and vote at the meeting under Section 250D of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) .

The proxy form must be signed by the shareholder or his/her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the shareholder is a corporation, in a manner permitted by the Corporations Act.

The proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which the proxy form is signed) or a copy or facsimile which appears on its face to be an authentic copy of the proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority) must be deposited at, posted to, or sent by facsimile transmission to the address listed below not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the meeting, or adjourned meeting as the case may be, at which the individual named in the proxy form proposes to vote.
