Proxy forms and voting
-
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting has the right to appoint a proxy.
-
A proxy does not need to be a Shareholder of the Company.
-
A Shareholder who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint up to two proxies and, in the case of such an appointment, may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise.
-
If a Shareholder appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes which each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.
-
Proxies may be appointed using the enclosed proxy form (Proxy Form). Detailed instructions for appointing a proxy are provided on the back of the Proxy Form.
-
Proxy appointments (and any necessary supporting document) must be received by the Company no later than 48 hours before the commencement of the Meeting. Proxies received after this deadline will not be effective for the scheduled meeting.
-
If a Proxy Form is signed on behalf of a Shareholder under a power of attorney, then either the original power of attorney, or a certified copy of it, must be lodged with the Proxy Form (before the deadline for the lodgement of proxies), unless the power of attorney has already been sighted by the Share Registry.
-
If a Shareholder appoints two proxies, neither is entitled to vote (as proxy for that Shareholder) on a show of hands at the Meeting. However, each can vote if a poll is taken on an item of business.
-
If the same person (such as the chair of the Meeting) is appointed as proxy for two or more Shareholders and those Shareholders have specified different ways for the proxy to vote on an item of business, then the proxy is not entitled to vote (as proxy) on a show of hands on that item.
Appointment of corporate representatives
-
A body corporate that is a Shareholder and entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting, or that has been appointed as proxy of a Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting, may appoint an individual to act as its representative at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative must bring to the Meeting adequate evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which the appointment is signed, unless that evidence has previously been provided to the Share Registry.
-
A proxy may decide whether to vote on any item of business or other resolution put before the Meeting, except where the proxy is required by law or the Company’s constitution to vote or abstain from voting in their capacity as proxy. If the proxy’s appointment directs the proxy how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may vote on that item only in accordance with the direction. If the proxy’s appointment does not direct the proxy how to vote on an item of business or any other resolution before the Meeting, the proxy may vote as he or she thinks fit on that item or resolution.
Appointing the chairperson of the Meeting as your proxy
The Proxy Form accompanying this Notice contains detailed instructions regarding completion of the Proxy Form in circumstances where a Shareholder wishes to appoint the chairperson of the Meeting as his or her proxy. You should read those instructions carefully.
-
By appointing the chairperson of the Meeting as your proxy in relation to Resolution 1 you expressly authorise the chairperson to exercise your vote on Resolution 1 despite Resolution 1 being connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of members of the KMP (which, in respect of Resolution 1, includes the chairperson) unless:
-
you have directed the chairperson how to vote on the resolutions by marking the appropriate box at Step 2 of the Proxy Form; or
-
you are a member of the KMP, the details of whose remuneration are included in the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2018, or a Closely Related Party of such a member of KMP.
-
The chairperson intends to exercise all available proxies by voting in favour of all Resolutions on the agenda.
-
If you do not wish the chairperson of the Meeting to exercise the proxy in accordance with the chairperson’s stated voting intentions on a Resolution, you should ensure that a box other than the ‘For’ box is clearly marked against each of the Resolutions in the Proxy Form.
Shareholders should refer to the Explanatory Statement, which accompanies and forms part of this Notice of Meeting, for information regarding voting restrictions.
Voting by proxy holders
Under the Corporations Act:
-
if proxy holders vote, they must vote all directed proxies as directed; and
-
any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the chairperson of the AGM, who must vote the proxies as directed.
Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote
Section 250BB 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:
-
the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way;
-
if the proxy has two or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on a resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;
-
if the proxy is the chairperson 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
-
if the proxy is not the chairperson of the meeting – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).
Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances
Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if
-
an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the company’s shareholders; and
-
the appointed proxy is not the chairperson of the meeting; and
-
at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
-
either of the following applies:
-
the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting; or
-
the proxy does not vote on the resolution,
the chairperson 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 that meeting.

Explanatory Statement
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement (which is included in and forms part of the Notice of Meeting) is to provide Shareholders with an explanation of the business of the Annual General Meeting (AGM or Meeting) and the resolutions to be considered at the AGM to assist Shareholders to determine how they wish to vote on each resolution.
Financial Statements and Reports
The Company’s financial report (including the financial statements and Directors’ declaration) and the reports of the directors and auditor for the financial year ended 30 June 2018 will be tabled at the AGM (as required by section 317 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)).
During the discussion of this item of business, Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, and make comments on, the financial report (including the Directors’ and Auditor’s reports) and on the business, operations and management of the Company generally.
A representative of the Company’s auditor, Deloitte, will be present at the Meeting. Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of the Company and of Deloitte’s representative relevant to the content of the 2018 financial statements, the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements and the independence of the auditor (in the context of the conduct of the audit).
Shareholders may also submit written questions to the Company and/or Deloitte if the questions are relevant to the content of the 2018 financial statements (including the Auditor’s Report) or the conduct of the audit of the financial statements of the Company. Written questions for the Company or Deloitte must be received by the Company by no later than 5 business days before the date of the AGM. During this item of business, Deloitte will be given the opportunity to answer, or to table written answers to, any relevant written questions directed to them and received by that date.
For questions submitted by Shareholders to the Company in advance of the Meeting, where appropriate and practical to do so, the Company will provide answers to any such written questions at the Meeting. In all other cases, the Company will provide written answers to the Shareholders within 10 business days after the Meeting.
Shareholders will not be asked or required to vote on this item of business.
Approval of Remuneration Report (Resolution 1)
The Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2018 contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the policies of the Company for and applicable to the remuneration of its officers and senior employees.
The Remuneration Report includes (among other things):
-
discussion of the Board’s policy in relation to the nature and level of remuneration of the key management personnel of the Company (KMP), in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2018;
-
discussion of the relationship between the Company’s performance over the five financial years up to and including 30 June 2018; and
-
the required details of the remuneration provided to the KMP (including the executive and non-executive directors) of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2018.
While the Corporations Act (section 250R(2)) requires a listed company to put a resolution to its members at its annual general meeting that its remuneration report be adopted, the Corporations Act expressly provides that the vote on any such resolution is advisory only (meaning that while such vote provides guidance to the directors, it does not bind the Directors or the Company). However, the Directors recognise the vote as an indication of shareholder sentiment and will have regard to the outcome of the vote and any discussion when setting the Company’s remuneration policies.
However, under the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 at the AGM are against adoption of the Remuneration Report, then:
-
if comments are made on the Remuneration Report at the AGM, the Company’s remuneration report for the financial year ending 30 June 2019 will be required to include an explanation of the Board’s proposed action in response or, if no action is proposed, the Board’s reasons for taking no action; and
-
if subsequently, at the Company’s 2019 annual general meeting, at least 25% of the votes cast on the resolution for adoption of the remuneration report for that financial year are cast against its adoption, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing that a general meeting (Spill Meeting) be called to consider the election of all Directors (other than any managing director) of the Company (Spill Meeting Resolution). The Spill Meeting must be held within 90 days of the date of the 2019 AGM. For any Spill Meeting Resolution to be approved, more than 50% of the votes cast on the resolution must be in favour of it. If a Spill Meeting Resolution is passed, all of the Directors (other than any managing director) will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting unless re-elected at that meeting.
The Remuneration Report forms part of the Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2018 and is made in accordance with a unanimous resolution of the Directors. While noting that each Director has a personal interest in his remuneration, as described in the Remuneration Report, the Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of adopting the Remuneration Report.
Resolution 1 is put to the Shareholders at the Meeting in fulfilment of the obligations of the Company under section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act. Shareholders attending the Meeting will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
Voting Exclusion Statement
In accordance with section 250R(4) of the Corporations Act, the Company will disregard any votes cast (in any capacity) in respect of Resolution 1 by or on behalf of:
-
(a) a member of the KMP, the details of whose remuneration are included in the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2018; and
-
(b) a Closely Related Party of such a member of the KMP.
However, the Company will not disregard a vote cast in respect of Resolution 1 by a member of the KMP or a Closely Related Party of such a member of the KMP if it is cast as a proxy and:
- it is not cast on behalf of a member of the KMP or a Closely Related Party of a member of the KMP;
and either:
-
the proxy is appointed in writing and specifies how the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1; or
-
the proxy is the chairperson of the Meeting and the appointment of the chairperson as the proxy does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1 and expressly authorises the chairperson to exercise the proxy even if the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the KMP.
If you are a member of the KMP or a Closely Related Party of a member of the KMP (or are acting on behalf of any such person) and purport to cast a vote on Resolution 1, that vote will be disregarded by the Company (as indicated above). You may also be liable for breach of the voting restrictions in the Corporations Act if you cast a vote that the Company will disregard.
Please read the information under the heading ‘Appointing the chairperson as your proxy’ which (among other things) deals with the chairperson’s voting of proxies on Resolution 1.
Election of Directors (Resolutions 2 and 3)
Clause 58.1 of the Company’s constitution requires that, at each annual general meeting, one-third of the Directors must retire from office, or if their number is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not exceeding one-third of the Directors must retire from office. The Managing Director (Mr. John Guscic) is exempt under clause 75.8 of the Company’s constitution from the requirement to retire by rotation.
The retirement of Directors by rotation is also subject to the requirement, in clause 58.4 of the Company’s constitution, that a Director must retire from office at the conclusion of the third annual general meeting after the Director was last elected. Clause 58.5 of the Company’s constitution provides that a retiring Director remains in office until the end of the meeting and will be eligible for re-election at the meeting.
As Mr Roger Sharp was last re-elected in 2016, he will retire at the AGM. Mr Sharp is eligible for re-election and is seeking re-election as Director at the AGM.
Clause 57 of the Company’s constitution allows the Directors to appoint any person as a Director to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors. A Director appointed under this clause will hold office only until the next annual general meeting of the Company, at which the Director may then be elected. A Director retiring in accordance with clause 57 is not to be considered in determining the number of Directors who must retire by rotation.
Ms. Toni Korsanos was appointed as a non-executive Director to fill a casual vacancy on the Board on 1 June 2018 and, therefore, she must retire as a Director at the conclusion of the AGM. Ms Korsanos is eligible for election and is seeking election as a Director at the AGM.
Biographical details of each of the Directors seeking re-election or election are set out below.
Resolution 2
Mr Roger Sharp, BA LLB (University of Auckland) Independent Non-Executive Director and Chairman, Member of the Risk Committee Appointed 1 January 2013
Roger has more than 30 years’ experience investing in, financing and running growth companies in international markets.

Roger was formerly CEO of ABN AMRO Asia Pacific Securities and Global Head of Technology for ABN AMRO Bank. He subsequently founded North Ridge Partners, a technology merchant bank. Roger currently also chairs Geo Limited (NZX: GEO). Previous ASX director roles included Chairman of travel. com.au Limited (ASX: TVL) and Chairman of Asia Pacific Digital Limited (ASX: DIG).
