EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to assist shareholders with their consideration of the resolutions detailed in the Notice of Annual General Meeting dated 25 October 2013. This Explanatory Statement should be read with, and forms part of, the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

1. Financial Report

As required by section 317 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), the Financial Report, Directors’ Report, Directors’ Declarations and the Independent Audit Report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 will be laid before the Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders will be provided with the opportunity to raise questions in relation to the reports, however there will be no formal resolution put to the meeting. The Company’s Auditor will be present at the meeting and shareholders will also be given the opportunity to ask the Auditor questions on the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor’s report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company for the preparation of the financial statements and the independence of the Auditor.

2. Resolution 1 – Adoption of the Remuneration Report

The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) requires that listed companies include a Remuneration Report in their Directors’ Report. The Remuneration Report is set out on pages 9 to 11 of the Company’s Annual Report. The Remuneration Report includes information in respect of the Company’s remuneration policies in respect of Directors and executives, including the relationship between remuneration policies and the Company’s performance, prescribed details of Directors and executives, details of securities included in the remuneration of Directors and executives and details of persons employed under a contract.

The resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report has been put to the shareholders in accordance with section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Any outcome, with respect to this resolution, is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, if more than 25% of the votes are cast against two consecutive annual section 250R(2) resolutions, the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) requires a shareholder vote on whether to convene a special meeting at which all directors (other than a managing director) who were in office when the second section 250R(2) resolution was passed must stand for reelection. As this is the first Annual General Meeting of the Company since its listing, this will be the first time that the resolution regarding the Remuneration Report will be put to the shareholders.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity at the meeting for shareholders as a whole to ask questions about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Directors will consider the outcome of this vote and any comments made by shareholders on the Remuneration Report at the meeting when reviewing the Company’s remuneration policies.

Voting exclusion statement

Where the Chair is appointed as a proxy, the Chair will vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

If you appoint the Chair as your proxy, and you check the box consenting to the Chair voting undirected proxies, then unless you include an express voting direction on your proxy form, you will be directing, and expressly consenting to the Chair to vote in favour of Resolution 1.
