Proxies or Representatives

A proxy form accompanies this notice of meeting. A Unitholder of the Trust who is entitled to attend and vote at the annual general meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote instead of the Unitholder at the meeting. A proxy need not be a Unitholder of the Trust.

A Unitholder appointing two proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes that each proxy is appointed to exercise, and if the Unitholder does not do so the proxy may exercise half of the votes. The proxy form contains instructions for appointing two proxies.

The instrument appointing a proxy must be in writing signed by the appointer or that person's duly authorised proxy or attorney or, if the appointer is a body corporate, either under seal or otherwise executed as authorised by the constitution of the body corporate or signed by the appointer's duly authorised proxy or attorney.

A body corporate is able to authorise a representative to vote on its behalf. For corporate representatives a certificate must be executed under the common seal of that body corporate or otherwise as authorised by the body's constitution and must be produced at the meeting. The form required for that certificate can be obtained from the Trust's security registry.

Proxy forms and a copy of the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which the form is signed must be lodged at the Trust's security registry, Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd, GPO Box 242, Melbourne Vic 3001 or at fax number 1800 783 447 (within Australia) or at fax number +61 3 9473 2555 (outside of Australia), not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the meeting.
