Entitlement to attend and vote at the AGM
The Company has determined that for the purposes of ascertaining entitlements to attend and vote at the AGM, the shares in the Company on issue as at 7:00pm (AEDT) on Tuesday, 1 November 2011 will be taken, for the purpose of the AGM, to be held by the persons who hold them as registered members (“shareholders”) at that time.
Proxies
A shareholder, who is entitled to attend and vote at the AGM, may appoint a proxy to attend and vote at the AGM on the shareholder's behalf. A proxy may be an individual or body corporate and is not required to be a shareholder of the Company. A shareholder, who is entitled to cast two or more votes at the AGM, may appoint two proxies and may specify the percentage or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. Where a shareholder appoints two proxies but does not specify the percentage or number of votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the appointing shareholder’s votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded.
A shareholder may direct the shareholder’s proxy on how to vote on the proposed resolutions by following the instructions on the Proxy Form that accompanies this Notice of Meeting. If the shareholder appointing the proxy directs the proxy on how to vote on a proposed resolution, then the proxy may only vote in the way directed. If the shareholder does not direct the proxy on how to vote on a proposed resolution, then the proxy may vote on that resolution as the proxy thinks fit.
If you wish to appoint a proxy, you must complete the Proxy Form accompanying this Notice of Meeting and return it in the enclosed reply paid envelope (for Australian residents only) to the Company’s Share Registrar or by facsimile to (03) 9473 2555 or by completing the proxy appointment online at
www.investorvote.com.au. The Proxy Form must be received by Computershare or the Company by no later than 10:00am (AEDT) on Tuesday, 1 November 2011. Proxies received after that time will not be effective for the AGM.
Corporate Representatives
A body corporate which is a shareholder or has been appointed as a proxy of a shareholder, may appoint an individual to act as its representative at the AGM. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act 2001(Cth). An “Appointment of Corporate Representative” form is available from the Company’s Share Registrar (phone 1300 855 080 or +61 3 9415 4000) or online at www.investorcentre.com (select the “Downloadable Forms” section under the “Information” tab). The representative must bring to the AGM the completed form or evidence of his or her appointment (including the authority under which the appointment is signed).
