For reasons of good governance, each Director respectively abstains where that Director has an interest in the outcome of a particular resolution and these interests are identified throughout the Explanatory Notes.
Resolutions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 are ordinary resolutions, which require a simple majority of votes cast by shareholders present and entitled to vote on the resolution. Resolution 5, relating to the Remuneration Report, is advisory and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Resolution 4: Increase in the maximum aggregate amount of fees payable to Directors
ASX Listing Rules and the Company’s Constitution require that the maximum aggregate NonExecutive Directors’ fees may only be increased by a resolution of Shareholders in a general meeting.
The most recent determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 5 November 2003, where the Shareholders approved an aggregate increase in remuneration from $100,000 to $200,000.
Since that time, the duties, size and expectations of the Board have significantly altered. The Directors consider that it is appropriate to increase the fee pool to:
-
ensure the Company has the ability to attract and retain high caliber non-executive directors with the appropriate skills, expertise and competencies;
-
to provide flexibility to enable Non-Executive Directors to be competitively remunerated; and
-
to create capacity to appoint additional non-executive directors in future if required.
There have been no securities issued to a non-executive director under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 or 10.14 at any time within the preceding three years.
The Directors recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Resolution 5 – Remuneration Report
Shareholders will be given the opportunity to ask questions at the meeting about the Remuneration Report which is included in SDI’s Annual Report 2015.
At the 2014 Annual General Meeting a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more of eligible shareholders was recorded. If at the 2015 AGM there is a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more cast by eligible shareholders, the Company is required to vote on Resolution 6, the Spill Resolution.
The Company has taken into consideration the ‘no’ vote against the Company at the 2014 AGM. It continues to engage the services of an independent remuneration consultant and will actively consider and, where deemed appropriate, implement the recommendations made by the independent remuneration consultant. . During the financial year, the independent consultant conducted:
-
Comparative analysis and review of comparable remuneration practices across a sample of specific industry companies;
-
a high level comparative analysis and review of market performance across a sample of specific industry companies.
The analysis included:
-
reviewing and beck marking position descriptions and remuneration of the executives’ roles with regard to a specific market perspective; and
-
reviewing short and long term incentives in specific markets.
The following principles, recommended by the independent remuneration consultant, are followed by the Remuneration Committee:
-
Pay competitive rewards to attract and retain high quality executives, having regard for the following:
-
capabilities and experience;
-
competitive by market standards;
-
reward executives for achieving Company and business targets; and
-
align the interests of the executive with those of shareholders.
-
Remuneration paid to the executive group should reflect industry and market conditions.
-
Remuneration paid to the executive group needs to include some ‘at-risk’ component to align with market best practice.
-
Exceptional performance-based remuneration will be available and paid by exception and at the discretion of the Board.
-
Performance measures associated with incentives should be challenging and achievable, with KPIs that are linked to factors over which the executive has control, but which are not easily manipulated.
Why you should vote in favour of Resolution 5
The Board and Executive have used the services of an independent remuneration consultant to conduct:
-
a thorough comparative analysis and review of comparable remuneration practices across specific industries; and
-
a high level, comparative analysis and review of market performance across a sample of specific industry companies and found that SDI Limited performed at the 80[th] percentile of the salary benchmarks identified.
Based upon this data, the Board has formulated a remuneration policy that it has determined is both fair and sufficient to attract and retain high calibre executives and provide a market based equitable remuneration policy whereby:
- there is a fixed element to remuneration, a short term incentive (STI) and a long term incentive (LTI) dependent upon performance for executive roles, as appears common practice across the market; and
7
- total remuneration packages (base salary plus STI & LTI) would be targeted at the 80th percentile of the salary benchmarks which corresponds to SDI’s comparative performance. This sits just above midway between the middle and top of the market.
Section 250R of the Corporations Act
Section 250R of the Corporations Act requires a resolution that the Remuneration Report to be adopted be put to a vote. The vote on the resolution is advisory only, and does not bind the Directors of the Company. The Remuneration Report is included in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report, which sets out details of the Company’s Director and Key Management Personnel ( KMP ) remuneration.
Under the Corporations Act 2001, if at least 25% of the eligible votes cast on this resolution are against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second Annual General Meeting a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the election of Directors of the Company (“spill resolution”).
This Notice of Meeting includes a “conditional” resolution (Resolution 6). This resolution will be put to the meeting, but even if it is passed, it will only become effective if, on the basis of the formal results of the poll, it is evident that the Company has received a second strike. Further detail is included in the Explanatory Notes to Resolution 6 below.
The Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
Resolution 6 – Spill Resolution
Resolution 6 is subject to the result of Resolution 5. Resolution 6 ( Spill Resolution ) is required to be included in this Notice of Meeting by Division 9 of Part 2G.2 of the Act because the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report (contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report) received at least 25% of the votes cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report.
If, at this AGM, Resolution 5 receives at least 25% of the votes cast against the Remuneration Report, the Company will receive its second strike and 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 of Resolution 5, the Company will proceed to put the Spill Resolution to a vote on a conditional basis. The result of the vote on the Spill Resolution will only be valid if Resolution 5 is not passed or passes but not by more than 75% of the votes cast. Conversely, if Resolution 5 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.
Majority required for the Spill Resolution
If more than 50% of eligible shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days after the Spill Resolution is passed.
The Spill Meeting
If the Spill Resolution is passed, all of the Directors who were in office at the date of the approval of the applicable Director’s Report, other than the Managing Director, 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.
Members should note the following:
8
-
if a meeting is required the sole purpose of the Spill Meeting will be to elect Directors of the Company;
-
the Company will provide at least 28 days notice of the Spill Meeting as required under the Corporations Act; and
-
if any person intends to move a resolution relating to the election of a Director of the Company, that person must comply with a minimum notice period contained in the Company’s Constitution.
Shareholders should also note that there are no voting exclusions applicable to the Spill Meeting and existing majority Shareholders of the Company can exercise their voting rights to re-elect the existing Directors of the Company without any changes to the composition of the Board.
Shareholders should be aware that the convening of a Spill Meeting will result in the Company incurring additional expense in conducting a meeting as well as potential disruption to its focus on the business operations.
The Directors strongly recommend that Shareholders vote against the Spill Resolution.
