A Shareholder entitled to cast two or more votes at the Meeting may appoint two proxies and specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise.

The information below is an explanation of the business to be considered at the Meeting.

Ordinary Business

Item 1: Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report

As required by the Corporations Act, the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report and the Auditor’s Report for the year ended 30 June 2015 will be laid before the Meeting. There is no requirement for a formal resolution on this item. However, the Chair of the Meeting will allow a reasonable opportunity for the Shareholders as a whole at the Meeting to ask questions about, or make comments on, those reports.

A copy of the Company’s 2015 Annual Report (which includes the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report and the Auditor’s Report) is available at www.energyaction.com.au. A copy of the 2015 Annual Report will be sent to those Shareholders that requested one. Shareholders who wish to receive a hard copy of the 2015 Annual Report should contact Link Market Services.

During this item of business an opportunity will be given to Shareholders to ask questions about, or make comments on, the 2015 Annual Report and management of Energy Action.

Similarly, a reasonable opportunity will be given to Shareholders, as a whole, to ask the Auditor questions relevant to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report, the accounting policies adopted by Energy Action in relation to the preparation of its financial statements and the independence of the Auditor in relation to the audit for the year ended 30 June 2015.

Shareholders may also submit written questions directed to the Auditor using the form enclosed. Relevant written questions for the Auditor must be received by no later than 5.00pm (AEDT) on Thursday, 5 November 2015.

Item 2: Adoption of Remuneration Report (Resolution 1)

As required by the Corporations Act, the Board is presenting the Remuneration Report to Shareholders for consideration and adoption.

The Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors. However, in accordance with the provisions of the Corporations Act (known generally as the ‘two strikes rule’), if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at the Meeting (constituting the first strike), and then again at the 2016 annual general meeting (constituting the second strike), Energy Action will be then required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the re-election of all of the Directors of Energy Action (Spill Resolution).

Under the Corporations Act, if more than 50% of those present and voting at the 2016 annual general meeting vote in favour of a Spill Resolution, Energy Action must convene an extraordinary general meeting (Spill Meeting) within 90 days of the 2016 annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the 2016 Directors’ Report was approved by the Board 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 is approved will be the Directors of Energy Action.

The Remuneration Report provides Shareholders with an understanding of:

  • the Company’s remuneration policies as they relate to KMP as defined under the Corporations Act;

  • the link between remuneration and the Company’s performance; and

  • individual outcomes for the Company’s executives and Directors.

A copy of the Remuneration Report, which is part of the 2015 Preliminary Final Report, lodged with the ASX on 18 August 2015, is available on the Company’s website.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Meeting.
