EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to assist shareholders of the Company in understanding the business to be put to shareholders for their consideration at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Company

ORDINARY RESOLUTION 1 - RE-ELECTION OF YAQOOB KHAN AS DIRECTOR

The Company's Constitution requires one third of the Directors (or if that is not a whole number, the whole number nearest to one third) to retire at each AGM. This rule does not apply to the Managing Director.

The Director(s) who retire under this rule are those who have held office the longest since last being elected or appointed. If two or more Directors have been in office for the same period, those Directors may agree which of them will retire.

Mr Yaqoob Khan retires at the AGM under this rule. However, being eligible, Mr Khan has offered himself for re-election as a Director of the Company.

Mr Khan has been an Executive Director of the Company since 3 September 1999 and his profile is set out in the Company's 2003 Annual Report.

SPECIAL RESOLUTION 2 -ADOPTIO N OF NEW CONSTITUTION

Pursuant to section 136 of the Corporations Act 2001, a company may adopt, modify or repeal its constitution by passing a special resolution. A special resolution must be passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by members entitled to vote on the resolution and present in person or by proxy at the Meeting.

The Directors propose that a new constitution be adopted by the Company which is consistent with changes to the law introduced by the Corporate Law Economic Reform Program Act 1999 (Cth), the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and the Australian Stock Exchange Listing Rules.

One of the rules of the new constitution is rule 164, which contains a proportional takeover approval provision which is not present in the current constitution of the Company.

In accordance with sub-section 648G(5) of the Corporations Act 2001, which requires the provision of certain information in relation to constitutions that contain proportional takeover approval provisions, the following information is provided to shareholders.

If the new constitution (including rule 164) is adopted and a proportional takeover bid is subsequently made for a class of shares in the Company, the Directors will be required to convene a general meeting of shareholders in that class to vote on a resolution to approve the proportional takeover bid. The resolution must be voted on a day that is at least 15 days before the end of the period during which the offers under the takeover bid remain open. The bidder and any associates will be excluded from voting.

If the resolution is rejected, then the offer will be deemed to be withdrawn and a person who has accepted an offer made under the takeover bid is entitled to rescind the contract (if any) resulting from acceptance.

If no resolution is voted on at least 15 days before the close of the offer then a resolution to approve the bid will be deemed to have been voted on and passed in accordance with rule 164.

In accordance with section 648G of the Corporations Act 2001 and rule 164.9 of the Company's new constitution, rule 164 will cease to have effect on the third anniversary of the date of its adoption or of its most recent renewal.

The Corporations Act 2001 permits the inclusion and renewal of takeover provisions in the Company's constitution...

At the date of this notice, save as otherwise disclosed in this notice, none of the Directors are aware of any proposal by a person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

Rule 164 will enable the Directors to be guided by the views of shareholders on any proportional takeover bid. Apart from this, there is no specific advantage or disadvantage for Directors, in their capacity as Directors, for inserting rule 164.

Rule 164 will ensure that all shareholders will have the opportunity to consider a proportional takeover bid and vote on whether it should be permitted to proceed. This should ensure that the terms of any future proportional bids are structured to be attractive to a majority of independent shareholders.

A copy of the new constitution can be inspected free of charge at the Company's registered office. In addition, any shareholder who wishes to review the proposed new constitution (and who makes a written request to the Company Secretary) prior to the AGM will be sent a copy, free of charge.

The adoption of the new constitution will only take effect from the date on which the shareholders pass this resolution.
