This Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with and forms part of the accompanying Notice. The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

This Explanatory Statement is an important document. It should be read carefully. The Directors recommend Shareholders read this Explanatory Statement in full before making any decision in relation to the Resolutions.

2. Action to be taken by Shareholders

3. Resolution 1 – Non Binding Resolution to Adopt Remuneration Report

The Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2015 contains a Remuneration Report which sets out the policy for the remuneration of the Directors and executives of the Company. Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act expressly provides that the vote on the Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. The Board will however, take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the remuneration practices and policies of the Company.

The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors 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.

Pursuant to the Corporations Amendment (Improving Accountability for Director and Executive Remuneration) Bill 2010 which amended the Corporations Act from 1 July 2011, if the remuneration report for a company receives a “no” vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings of the company, a Spill Resolution must be put to the Shareholders of that company at the second annual general meeting as to whether a further general meeting should be held within 90 days, at which all directors (other than the managing director) in office at the date of the second approved remuneration report must stand for re-election.
