Ms Deborah Wilson was appointed as a Director of the Company by the Board of Directors on 3 October, 2003. ASX Listing Rule 14.4 and Article 6.1(e) provides that any Director appointed by the Directors of the Company will hold office only until the next Annual General Meeting of the Company and is then eligible for re-election by shareholders. Accordingly, Ms Wilson retires at the Annual General Meeting and offers herself for election.
