“That for the purposes of section 250R(2) of the Act and for all other purposes, the Company be authorised to adopt the Remuneration Report contained in the Annual Financial Report”.
Short Explanation: In accordance with section 249L(2) of the Act, a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted must be put to the vote. The effect of section 250R(3) of the Act is that the vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

However, the Company need not disregard a vote cast by any such person (the voter) if the vote is not cast on behalf of any of these persons and either:
-
(a) the voter is appointed as a proxy by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; or
-
(b) the voter is the chair of the meeting and the appointment of the chair as proxy:
-
(i) does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; and

PROXIES
In accordance with section 249L of the Act, shareholders are advised:
-
each shareholder has a right to appoint a proxy;
-
the proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company;
-
a shareholder who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise.
In accordance with section 250BA of the Act the Company specifies the following for the purposes of receipt of proxy appointments:
Online: www.advancedshare.com.au/investor-login By hand delivery to: Advanced Share Registry Limited, 110 Stirling Hwy, Nedlands WA 6009 By post to: Advanced Share Registry Limited, PO Box 1156, Nedlands WA 6909 By facsimile to: +61 8 9262 3723
Each shareholder entitled to vote at the General Meeting has the right to appoint a proxy to vote on each particular Resolution. A shareholder may specify the way in which the appointed proxy is to vote on a particular Resolution or may allow the appointed proxy to vote at its discretion. Where a shareholder appoints the Chairman as their proxy and does not expressly direct the Chairman to vote 'For' or 'Against' a resolution or to abstain from voting on a resolution, the Chairman intends to vote in favour of such resolution. Notwithstanding the Chairman's voting intention, a shareholder can (where they have appointed the Chairman as their proxy) expressly direct the Chairman to vote for or against such resolution, or to abstain from voting on such resolution, by marking the appropriate box on their proxy form. That is, a shareholder can direct the Chairman to vote as their proxy in a manner which is contrary to the Chairman's stated voting intentions. If a shareholder does not mark any of the 'For', 'Against' or 'Abstain' boxes on the proxy form for Resolution 1 (Adoption of Remuneration Report), that shareholder will thereby be taken to have expressly authorised and directed the Chairman to exercise the proxy in respect of Resolution 1 in accordance with the Chairman's stated voting intention (that is, to vote in favour of such resolution) even though that resolution is connected to the remuneration of members of the Company’s key management personnel
The instrument appointing the proxy must be received by the Company as provided in its Constitution no later than 48 hours prior to the time of the commencement of the General Meeting. This proxy form may be sent by facsimile transmission to the number identified on the proxy form.
The Chairman will call a poll for all resolutions.
A corporation may elect to appoint a representative in accordance with the Act in which case the Company will require written proof of the representative's appointment which must be lodged with, or presented to the Company before the meeting.
For the purposes of Regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 the Company determines that shareholders holding ordinary shares at 5.00pm WST on 23 November 2021 will be entitled to attend and vote at the General Meeting. Except where the contrary intention appears, all defined terms used in this Notice of Meeting have the meanings set out in the glossary of the Explanatory Statement accompanying this Notice.
