  • The proxy must vote as directed; and
  • 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; and
  • 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
  • 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).

Transfer of non‐Chair proxy to Chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act 2001 provides that, if:

  • 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; and
  • the appointed proxy is not the Chair of the meeting; and
  • at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
  • either of the following applies:
    • the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting; or

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company (Spill Resolution) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of the votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting (Spill Meeting) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (asincluded in the company's annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re‐election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re‐election as directors is approved will be the directors of the Company.
