The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.sentosamining.com.au.
2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1 General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.
The remuneration report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. The remuneration report is part of the Directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2013.
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the remuneration report at the Annual General Meeting.
2.2 Voting consequences
Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, if at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report in two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of directors of the Company ( Spill Resolution ) at the second annual general meeting.
If more than 50% of shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene the extraordinary general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.
All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the Company’s annual financial report for the financial year ended immediately before the second annual general meeting) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.
At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.
2.3 Proxy Restrictions
Shareholders appointing a proxy for Resolution 1 should note the following:
If you appoint a member of the Key Management Personnel as your proxy
If you elect to appoint a member of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of that member, you must direct the proxy how they are to vote . Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be included in any vote on Resolution 1.

If you elect to appoint the Chair as your proxy, you do not need to direct the Chair how you wish them to exercise your vote on Resolution 1 , however if you do not direct the Chair how to vote, you must tick the acknowledgement on the proxy form to acknowledge that the Chair may exercise their discretion in exercising your proxy even though Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel .
If you appoint any other person as your proxy
You do not need to direct your proxy how to vote, and you do not need to tick any further acknowledgement on the proxy form.
3. RESOLUTIONS 2 AND 3 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Clause 11.3 of the Constitution requires that one-third of all Directors (other than the Managing Director) must retire by rotation at an annual general meeting. A Director who retires under clause 11.3 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election. The Company currently has three Directors, accordingly, one must retire. Mr Nigel Gellard, the Director longest in office since his last election, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
Clause 11.10 of the Constitution allows the Directors to appoint at any time a person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy, but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution. Clause 11.11 of the Constitution requires that any Director appointed in a casual vacancy holds office until the next annual general meeting of the Company and is then eligible for re-election but is not to be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation at that meeting.
Mr Peter Ellery, having been appointed on 21 November 2012 retires in accordance with clause 11.11 of the Constitution, and being eligible, seeks election from Shareholders.
4. RESOLUTION 4 – CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
Section 157(1)(a) of the Corporations Act provides that a company may change its name if the company passes a special resolution adopting a new name.
Resolution 4 seeks the approval of Shareholders for the Company to change its name to Parmelia Resources Limited.
If Resolution 4 is passed the change of name will take effect when ASIC alters the details of the Company’s registration. The proposed name has been reserved by the Company and if Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will lodge a copy of the special resolution with ASIC following the Meeting in order to effect the change.
The new name proposed to be adopted under Resolution 4 is Parmelia Resources Limited. The Directors believe that this new name more accurately reflects the proposed future operations of the Company.
Resolution 4 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 4 for it to be passed.

9. RESOLUTION 10 – APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES
9.1 General
Resolution 10 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of 5,500,000 Shares ( Consideration Shares ) in consideration for the acquisition of privately owned Australian and Mongolian companies ( Acquisition ).
As announced on 24 April 2013, the Company has entered into an agreement to purchase a 100% interest in Darvii Naruu Copper Gold Project in Gobi-Altai province, Western Mongolia. The parties to the agreement are BM Geological Services Pty Ltd (ACN 106 064 393); Bradley Charles Daddow; Rachel Anne Sheedy; Michelle Coutts; Charmaine Hartofillis; Terrence Edgar Bates; Resources Service Limited (ICA 3739/2000); International Resource Development Limited (CN 582331); Bewsher Mapleson LLC (SRN 9019035038); and St Nicolas Mines Pty Ltd (ACN 115 642 352) ( Parties ).
The Darvii Naruu project is comprised of seven semi contiguous licenses with a total area of 62,735.8 Hectares. The project is located within the South Gobi Arc which hosts Rio Tinto’s world class Oyu Tolgoi porphyry deposit, one of the world’s largest Cu-Au deposits. In addition to the Consideration Shares, the Company will pay a 0.5% net smelter return royalty.
Mr Nigel Gellard, Executive Chairman said “The investment into Mongolia represents a unique platform to gain access to a recognised mining jurisdiction hosting numerous world class mineral deposits. Western Mongolia is vastly underexplored by modern exploration methods and the agreement presents Sentosa with an outstanding opportunity to potentially make a discovery of a large-scale mineral deposit. With its substantial mineral endowment, and close proximity to China, Mongolia is a leading frontier for exploration and mining.”
A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 4 above.
The effect of Resolution 10 will be to allow the Company to issue the Consideration Shares pursuant to the Acquisition during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.
9.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

10. RESOLUTION 11 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY
10.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital ( 10% Placement Capacity ).
The Company is an Eligible Entity.
If Shareholders approve Resolution 11, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in Section 10.2 below).
The effect of Resolution 11 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 11 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 11 for it to be passed.
10.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.
An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
-
(i) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
(ii) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $2,220,000.
Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has two classes of Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: SEO) and listed Options (ASX Codes: SEOO).
The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:
(A x D) – E
Where:
A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(A) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(B) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
-
(C) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and
-
(D) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
16
D is 10%.
- E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
10.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 11:
(i) Minimum Price
The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
(A) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(B) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in (A) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(ii) Date of Issue
The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
-
(A) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and
-
(B) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),
( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).
(iii) Risk of voting dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 11 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
Upon issue of the Shares contemplated by this Notice, there will be 60,597,222 Shares on issue comprising:
-
(a) 32,875,000 existing Shares as at the date of this Notice of Meeting; and
-
(b) 27,722,222 Shares which will be issued if Resolutions 5, 6 and 10 are passed at this Meeting.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 18 September 2013.
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:
-
(A) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(B) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.
(iv) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity
The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
- (A) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets and general working capital; or
18
- (B) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources assets and investments including/excluding previously announced acquisitions in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
(v) Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity
The Company’s allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of the proposed placement(s).
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
(A) the purpose of the issue;
-
(B) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(C) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(D) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(E) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(F) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.
(vi) Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 22 November 2012 ( Previous Approval ).
On 27 September 2013 the Company issued 3,287,500 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company pursuant to the Previous Approval. The Shares issued pursuant to the Previous Approval were issued to professional and sophisticated investors, who are clients of Hartleys, at an issue price of $0.045 per Share, being a discount of 4.3% to the trading price of the Shares on that date. The total cash consideration for the Shares issued pursuant to the Previous Approval was $139,061 which is to be used for the continued exploration of the Company’s existing projects.
The Company has not issued any Options pursuant to the Previous Approval.
During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 22 November 2012, the Company also released 7,400,000 Shares from escrow, which represents approximately 29.04% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 22 November 2012, which was 25,475,000.
Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 2.
19
(vii) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A
When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it must give to ASX:
-
(A) a list of the recipients of the Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
-
(B) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
10.4 Voting Exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 11.
11. RESOLUTIONS 12-14 – ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO RELATED PARTIES
11.1 General
The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue a total of 4,500,000 Options ( Related Party Options ) to Messrs Nigel Gellard, Leigh Junk and Peter Ellery ( Related Parties ) on the terms and conditions set out below.
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(i) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(ii) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The grant of the Related Party Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and Messrs Nigel Gellard, Leigh Junk and Peter Ellery are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.
It is the view of the Company that the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the grant of Related Party Options to the Related Parties.
11.2 Shareholder Approval (Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11)
Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of section 219 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed grant of Related Party Options:
-
(i) the related parties are Messrs Nigel Gellard, Leigh Junk and Peter Ellery and they are related parties by virtue of being Directors;
-
(ii) the maximum number of Related Party Options (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Parties is:
-
(A) 2,500,000 Related Party Options to Mr Nigel Gellard;
-
(B) 1,750,000 Related Party Options to Mr Leigh Junk; and
-
(C) 250,000 Related Party Options to Mr Peter Ellery;
20
-
(iii) the Related Party Options will be granted to the Related Parties no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Related Party Options will be issued on one date;
-
(iv) the Related Party Options will be granted for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;
-
(v) the terms and conditions of the Related Party Options are set out in Schedule 3;
-
(vi) the value of the Related Party Options and the pricing methodology is set out in Schedule 4;
-
(vii) the relevant interests of the Related Parties in securities of the Company are set out below:
| Related Party | Shares | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Nigel Gellard | 1,100,000 | 650,0001 |
| Leigh Junk | 1,225,000 | 650,0002 |
| Peter Ellery | Nil | Nil |
1 250,000 Options exercisable at $0.20 each on or before 25 August 2014. 400,000 Options exercisable at $0.25 each on or before 17 December 2013.
2 250,000 Options exercisable at $0.20 each on or before 25 August 2014; and 400,000 Options exercisable at $0.25 each on or before 17 December 2013.
(viii) the remuneration and emoluments from the Company to the Related Parties for the previous financial year and the proposed remuneration and emoluments for the current financial year are set out below:
| Related Party | Current Financial Year |
Previous Financial Year |
|---|---|---|
| Nigel Gellard | $32,700 | $32,700 |
| Leigh Junk | $32,700 | $32,700 |
| Peter Ellery | $19,942 | nil |
(ix) if the Related Party Options granted to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 4,500,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 32,875,000 to 37,375,000 (assuming that no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 12.04%, comprising 6.69% by Mr Nigel Gellard, 4.68% by Mr Leigh Junk and 0.67% by Mr Peter Ellery.
The market price for Shares during the term of the Related Party Options would normally determine whether or not the Related Party Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Related Party Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Related Party Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.
(x) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice is set out below:
| Price | Date | |
|---|---|---|
| Highest | 5.4 cents | 12 September 2013 |
| Lowest | 0.7 cents | 26, 27 and 28 June 2013 |
| Last | 5.4 cents | 25 September 2013 |
(xi) the Board acknowledges the grant of Related Party Options to each of the Directors is contrary to Recommendation 8.3 of The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2010 Amendments (2[nd] Edition) as published by The ASX Corporate Governance Council. However, the Board considers the grant of Related Party Options to each of the Directors is reasonable in the circumstances for the reason set out in paragraph (xiii);
21
-
(xii) the primary purpose of the grant of the Related Party Options to the Related Parties is to provide a performance linked incentive component in the remuneration package for the Related Parties to motivate and reward the performance of the Related Parties in their respective roles as Directors;
-
(xiii) Mr Nigel Gellard declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 12 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Mr Nigel Gellard is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 12 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 13 and 14, Mr Nigel Gellard recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the following reasons:
-
(A) the grant of Related Party Options to the Related Parties, in particular, the vesting conditions of the Related Party Options, will align the interests of the Related Parties with those of Shareholders;
-
(B) the grant of the Related Party Options is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to the Related Parties; and
-
(C) there is no significant opportunity costs to the Company or opportunity foregone by the Company in granting the Related Party Options upon the terms proposed;
-
(xiv) Mr Leigh Junk declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 13 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 13 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 12 and 14, Mr Leigh Junk recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (xiii);
-
(xv) Mr Peter Ellery declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 14 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 14 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 12 and 13, Mr Leigh Junk recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (xiii);
-
(xvi) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Related Party, the current market price of Shares, the current market practices when determining the number of Related Party Options to be granted as well as the exercise price and expiry date of those Related Party Options; and
-
(xvii) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 12 to 14.
Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Related Party Options to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Related Party Options to the Related Parties will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

( Appointing a Proxy ): A member entitled to attend and cast a vote at an Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the meeting.

A member who appoints 2 proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a member appoints 2 proxies and the appointments do not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes. Any fractions of votes resulting from the application of these principles will be disregarded. A duly appointed proxy need not be a member of the Company.
( Direction to Vote ): A member may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. Where a box is not marked the proxy may vote as they choose. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.
