Proxies
A member entitled to vote at the meeting has the right to appoint a proxy to attend and vote instead of the member. A proxy need not be a member. A member who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a member appoints 2 proxies and does not specify the proportion or number which each proxy is to exercise, then, in accordance with Section 249X(3) of the Corporations Law, each proxy may exercise half of the votes for which the proxies are appointed.
A form for appointment of proxy is enclosed. To be effective, the document appointing the proxy (and the original, or a certified copy, of the power of attorney or other instrument under which the document appointing the proxy is signed or executed) must be received by the Company at least 48 hours before the meeting. The documents should be delivered to the Company at Computershare, GPO Box 242. Melbourne NSW 3001, Fax: 61 3 9473 2555.

Corporate Representative
A representative of a company attending the meeting must present at the meeting satisfactory evidence of his or her appointment to attend on the company's behalf, unless previously lodged with the Company.
If the Chairman of the Meeting is your nominated proxy, or may be appointed by default, and you have not directed your proxy how to vote on Item 3, please place a mark in the relevant box on the proxy form. By marking this box you acknowledge that the Chairman of the Meeting may exercise your proxy even if he has an interest in the outcome of this item and that votes cast by him, other than as proxy holder, would be
disregarded because of that interest. If you do not mark the box, and you have not directed your proxy how to vote, the Chairman of the Meeting will not cast your votes on Item 3 and your votes will not be counted in computing the required majority if a poll is called on this item. The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of each of these items.
