Section 250R(5) of the Corporations Act came into effect on 28 June 2012 and will affect the Chair's votes on undirected proxies. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of these changes to the Corporations Act, as they will apply to this General Meeting. Broadly, the changes mean that:

  2. (a) if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed;

  3. (b) any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed; and

Further details on these changes are set out below.

  1. ( Appointing a Proxy ): A member with two or more votes entitled to attend and vote at the General Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on a poll on their behalf. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the member’s voting rights. If a member appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half the votes. A duly appointed proxy need not be a member of the Company.

  2. ( Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote ): Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does :

  3. (a) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);

  4. (b) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

  5. (c) if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  6. (d) if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

  7. ( Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances ): Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  8. (a) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members;

  9. (b) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;

  10. (c) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  11. (d) either of the following applies:

    • (i) the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting;

    • (ii) the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.

( Signing Instructions ):

  • (a) ( Individual ): Where the holding is in one name, the member must sign.

  • (b) ( Joint Holding ): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the members should sign.

  • (c) ( Power of Attorney ): If you have not already provided the Power of Attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

7 |

  • (d) ( Companies ): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to Section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held.

  • ( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual members from attending the General Meeting in person if they wish. Where a member completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the General Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that member is suspended while the member is present at the General Meeting.

( Voting in person ):
