INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPOINTMENT OF PROXY
-
A shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote at this Annual General Meeting as the shareholder’s proxy. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.
-
A shareholder entitled to attend and cast 2 or more votes at this Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than 2 proxies to attend and vote at this Annual General Meeting. Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy must be appointed to represent a specific proportion of the shareholder’s voting rights. If such appointment is not made then each proxy may exercise half of the shareholder’s voting rights. Fractions shall be disregarded. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional proxy form may be obtained by telephoning the Company's share registry or you may copy this form.
-
The proxy form must be signed personally by the shareholder or his attorney, duly authorised in writing. If a proxy is given by a corporation, the proxy must be executed under either the common seal of the corporation or under the hand of an officer, or officers of the company (as the case may be) or its duly authorised attorney. Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. In the case of joint shareholders, this proxy must be signed by at least one of the joint shareholders, personally or by a duly authorised attorney.
-
If a proxy is executed by an attorney of a shareholder, then the original of the relevant power of attorney or a certified copy of the relevant power of attorney, if it has not already been noted by the Company, must accompany the proxy form.
-
To be effective, forms to appoint proxies must be received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of this Annual General Meeting, by person, post, courier or facsimile to the respective addresses stipulated in this proxy form.
-
A Shareholder 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 subject to the relevant laws. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.
-
If the proxy form specifies a way in which the proxy is to vote on any of the resolutions stated above, then the following applies:
-
(a) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way;
-
(b) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution, the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;
-
(c) if the proxy is Chairperson, the proxy must vote on a poll and must vote that way; and
-
(d) if the proxy is not the Chairperson, the proxy need not vote on a poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way.
If a proxy is also a shareholder, the proxy can cast any votes the proxy holds as a shareholder in any way that the proxy sees fit.
-
Sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act broadly provide that:
-
if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and
-
any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.
Further details on these changes are set out below.
Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote.
Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does :
-
the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
-
if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands; and
-
if the proxy is the Chair – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
-
if the proxy is not the Chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).
If a proxy is also a Shareholder, the proxy can cast any votes the proxy holds as a Shareholder in any way that the proxy sees fit.
Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances
Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:
-
an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the company's members; and
-
the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and
-
at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
-
either of the following applies:
-
the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting;
-
the proxy does not vote on the resolution,
the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.
- Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual members from attending the Annual General Meeting in person if they wish. Where a Shareholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the Annual General Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that member is suspended while the Shareholder is present at the Annual General Meeting.
A proxy form accompanies this Notice and to be effective the proxy form and the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed (or a certified copy) must be received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the commencement of the Annual General Meeting, at:
-
