Determination of Membership and Voting Entitlement for the Purpose of the Meeting
For the purpose of determining a person’s entitlement to attend and vote at the Meeting, a person will be recognised as a Shareholder if that person is registered as a holder of Shares at 7.00 p.m. (Sydney Time) on Monday, 17 February 2020 . The Board has determined that the Shares on issue at that time will be taken, for the purposes of the Meeting, to be duly held by the person or persons who are registered as the holder or holders of those Shares in the Share Registry, at that time. Accordingly, transfers of Shares registered after that time and date will be disregarded in determining entitlements to attend and vote at the Meeting.
Proxies
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting pursuant to the Constitution, is entitled to appoint one or more proxies (provided that more than one proxy is not appointed to exercise the rights attached to a particular Share held by the Shareholder). Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy may be appointed to represent a specific proportion of the Shareholder’s voting rights. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.
A proxy need not be a Shareholder.
Any instrument of proxy deposited or received by the Company in which the name of the appointee is not filled in shall be deemed to be given in the favour of the Chair.
The instrument appointing a proxy, as well as any power of attorney (or a certified copy thereof) under which a proxy is appointed, must be received by the Company or the Share Registry by no later than 3.00p.m. (Sydney Time) on Monday, 17 February 2020, in accordance with the instructions provided on the front of the Proxy Form.
The instrument of appointment of a proxy must be executed by the appointor or its duly authorised representative. The Proxy Form which accompanies this Notice may be used to appoint a proxy for the purposes of the Meeting.
Shareholders and their proxies should be aware that:
2
-
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.
Undirected Proxy Votes
The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of each Resolution in respect of which that proxy was given.
Corporate representative
A Shareholder that is a company and that wishes to appoint a person to act as its representative at the Meeting may do so in the same manner as that in which it could appoint a proxy.
If you wish to discuss any of the matters in this Notice of Meeting or Explanatory Statement, please contact the Company Secretary on +61 8 6189 1155 during business hours.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass any or all of the Resolutions.
BACKGROUND TO LISTING RULES APPLICABLE TO RESOLUTIONS
Listing Rule 7.1
Listing Rule 7.1, commonly referred to as the “ 15% rule ”, limits the capacity of an ASXlisted company to issue securities without the approval of its shareholders. In broad terms, that Listing Rule provides that a company may not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities equal to more than 15% of the total number of ordinary securities on issue in the capital of the company 12 months prior to the proposed date of issue or agreement to issue (but excluding any shares issued in reliance on the 15% rule in that 12 month period), unless the issue or agreement to issue is approved by shareholders or otherwise comes within one of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1.
In the event that a resolution that is required to be approved in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.1 is so approved (each an Approved 7.1 Resolution ), the Company’s ability to issue further Equity Securities under the 15% Rule or otherwise under the terms of the Listing Rules, will not be decreased as a result of the issue of any Equity Securities pursuant to an Approved 7.1 Resolution.
In the event that a resolution that is required to be approved in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.1 is not so approved (each a Disapproved 7.1 Resolution ), the Company will during the next 12 month period and in the absence of specific Shareholder approval being granted at the relevant time, have its ability to issue further Equity Securities under the 15% Rule or otherwise under the terms of the Listing Rules, decreased by the number of Equity Securities that are the subject of a Disapproved 7.1 Resolution.
Listing Rule 7.4
A company in general meeting can ratify, by passage of an ordinary resolution, an issue of Equity Securities made in the preceding 12 months without shareholder approval in compliance with the 15% rule, so as to reverse the “depletion” of the company’s capacity to issue Equity Securities without shareholder approval under 15% rule resulting from that previous issue.
Listing Rule 7.4, known as the “ subsequent approval ” rule, validates an issue of Equity Securities made without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 as if it had been made with shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 if both of the following criteria are satisfied, namely:
-
(i) the issue was not made in breach of Listing Rule 7.1; and
-
(ii) the holders of ordinary securities in the company subsequently approve that issue.
In the event that a resolution that is required to be approved in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.4 is so approved (each an Approved 7.4 Resolution ), the Company’s ability to issue further Equity Securities under the 15% Rule or otherwise under the terms of the Listing Rules will not be decreased as a result of the issue of any Equity Securities pursuant to an Approved 7.4 Resolution.
11
In the event that a resolution that is required to be approved in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.4 is not so approved (each a Disapproved 7.4 Resolution ), the Company will during the next 12 month period and in the absence of specific Shareholder approval being granted at the relevant time, either:
-
(i) have its ability to issue further Equity Securities decreased by the number of Equity Securities that were issued pursuant to a Disapproved 7.4 Resolution; or
-
(ii) be required to redeem and cancel some or all of the number of Equity Securities that were issued pursuant to a Disapproved 7.4 Resolution, depending on the extent, if any, by which that number exceeds the capacity of the Company to issue further Equity Securities under the 15% Rule or otherwise under the terms of the Listing Rules.
