3. REMUNERATION REPORT

The Remuneration Report, which is included in a separate and clearly identified section of the Directors’ Report (and is set out at pages 11 to 16 of the 2016 Annual Report which is available on the Metgasco website at http://www.metgasco.com.au/annual-reports), sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for directors, secretaries and senior managers of the Company as required by section 300A of the Corporations Act.

Section 250R (2) of the Corporations Act requires that the Company put to a shareholder vote, a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted. The vote is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company, although the Company takes the outcome of the vote into consideration in determining remuneration policy going forward.

The Remuneration Report:

  • explains Metgasco’s executive remuneration philosophy and objectives and the link between the remuneration of employees and Metgasco’s performance;

  • sets out remuneration details for each Director and for each named Executive; and

  • makes clear that the basis for remunerating Non-Executive Directors is distinct from the basis for remunerating Executives, including Executive Directors.

The Chairman will give shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or comment upon, the Remuneration Report.

An advisory resolution that the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2016 is adopted, will then be put to a shareholder vote.

If 25% or more of votes that are cast on the resolution are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive AGMs, shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those AGMs on a resolution (a “spill resolution”) that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company’s Directors (other than the CEO and managing director) must stand for re-election.

A voting exclusion statement is included in the main body of the Notice of Meeting.

Voting on Resolution 3

The Chairman of the Meeting may vote an undirected proxy as he decides on this advisory resolution, if the proxy appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even though this advisory resolution is connected directly with the remuneration of a KMP.

The Directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of this advisory resolution 3.

4. SPILL RESOLUTION

Resolution 4 is subject to the result of Resolution 3.

Resolution 4 ( Spill Resolution ) is required to be included in this Notice of Meeting by Division 9 of Part 2G.2 of the Act because the adoption of the Remuneration Report contained in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report was not passed by more than 75% of the votes cast at the 2015 Annual General Meeting.

If, at this AGM, Resolution 3 is not passed, or passes but not by more than 75% of the votes cast, then the Company is required to put the Spill Resolution to a vote.

To allow the Company to progress the business of this AGM without the need for any adjournment to consider the results of the vote on Resolution 3, the Company will proceed to put the Spill Resolution to a vote on a conditional basis. A contingent poll will be held on this basis. The result of the vote on the Spill Resolution will only be valid if Resolution 3 is not passed, or passes but not by more than 75% of the votes cast. Conversely, if Resolution 3 passes on a majority of more than 75%, the Spill Resolution will be deemed withdrawn and any votes cast on the Spill Resolution prior to the withdrawal of the Spill Resolution will be treated as invalid.

6

METGASCO LIMITED 2016 NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Majority required for Spill Resolution

The Spill Resolution will be carried by ordinary majority (more than 50%). If the Spill Resolution is valid and carried, a Spill Meeting must be held within 90 days of the passing of the Spill Resolution.

The Spill Meeting

If a Spill Meeting is held, the Directors who will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting (unless they resign before the Spill Meeting) will be, pursuant to section 250V(1)(b)(i) of the Act, the following directors being all the Non-Executive Directors in office when the Board resolution on the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2016 was passed:

  • Mr Philip Amery*

  • Mr Alexander Lang*

  • Mr Terry White*

  • This assumes all of these Directors are elected at this AGM.

Each of these Directors is eligible to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting and intend to seek re-election.

The Spill Meeting, if required, will be subject to separate notice in accordance with the Constitution of the Company and the Corporations Act. Nominations for director appointments at the Spill Meeting may be made in accordance with the Constitution of the Company and may include the Directors listed above.

Voting on Spill Resolution 4

The Chairman of the Meeting may vote an undirected proxy as he decides on this Resolution, if the proxy appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even though this Resolution is connected directly with the remuneration of a KMP.

A voting exclusion applies to Resolutions 3 and 4, and is set out in the Notice of Meeting. These voting exclusions will not apply to the Spill Meeting and all shareholders will be entitled to vote on the Director appointments at the Spill Meeting.

The Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote against Resolution 4.
