To vote in person, attend the Meeting at the time, date and place set out above.

Attending the Meeting virtually

The Meeting will be virtually accessible to all Shareholders, and will allow Shareholders, as a whole, a reasonable opportunity to participate without being physically present at the Meeting.

The technology used to hold the Meeting will be reasonable and, Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting, will be able to:

(a) view the Meeting live;
(b) exercise a right, orally and in writing, to ask questions and make comments; and
(c) cast votes in real time on a poll during the Meeting.

Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting virtually must first register their attendance with the Company by no later than 10.00am (AEDT) on 27 November 2023 by email to [email protected], including the Shareholder’s name, address and HIN or SRN. The Company will then email the Shareholder the details to participate in the Meeting via https://www.advancedshare.com.au/Dashboard/Virtual-Meeting-Centre-Login (a web-based meeting portal).

Voting by poll

All votes taken at the Meeting will be conducted by way of a poll, taken both physically at the Meeting and electronically. Shareholders who wish to vote by poll during the virtual Meeting must first notify the Company of their intention by 10:00am (AEDT) on 27 November 2023, the day prior to the day of the Meeting, by email to [email protected]. Shareholders will be able to submit their email poll votes immediately after the Chair calls for a vote on each Resolution. The outcome of each Resolution will not be able to be determined until after the conclusion of the Meeting to allow the Company Secretary sufficient time to count such poll votes submitted by email.

Voting by proxy

A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

Please note that:

(a) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;
(b) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and
(c) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

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:

(a) 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);
(a) 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;
(b) if the proxy is the Chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
(c) 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).

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

(a) 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;
(b) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;
(c) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded, or is otherwise required under section 250JA on the resolution; and
(d) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or 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.

Chair's voting intentions

If the Chair is your proxy, either by appointment or by default, and you have not indicated your voting intention, you expressly authorise the Chair to exercise the proxy in respect of the Resolution even though the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of the Company's Key Management Personnel.

Subject to the following paragraph, the Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions, unless the Shareholder has expressly indicated a different voting intention.

If the Chair is a person referred to in the voting prohibition statement applicable to a Resolution under section 224 of the Corporations Act, the Chair will only be able to cast a vote as proxy for you on the relevant Resolution if you are entitled to vote and have specified your voting intention in the Proxy Form for that Resolution.

Submitting questions

Shareholders are encouraged to submit any questions that they may wish to put to the Company during the Meeting in writing by 10:00am (AEDT) on 27 November 2023, the day prior to the day of the Meeting, by email to [email protected]. Shareholders will also be able to ask questions during the Meeting using the web-based meeting portal, and Shareholders will be required to give their names when asking a question.

The Directors have determined pursuant to regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth) that the persons eligible to vote at the Meeting are those who are registered Shareholders at 7.00pm (AEDT) on 26 November 2023.

Corporate representatives

A body corporate may appoint an individual as its representative to exercise any of the powers the body may exercise at meetings of a company’s members. The appointment may be a standing one. Unless the appointment states otherwise, the representative may exercise all of the powers that the appointing body could exercise at a meeting or in voting on a resolution.
