ENTITLEMENT TO ATTEND AND VOTE
In accordance with Regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), the Board has determined that persons who are registered holders of shares of the Company as at 7pm (Sydney/Melbourne time) on 9 April 2025 will be entitled to attend and vote at the EGM as a shareholder. Accordingly, transactions registered after that time will be disregarded for determining which shareholders are entitled to participate and vote at the EGM.
If more than one joint holder of shares is present at the EGM (whether personally, by proxy or by attorney or by representative) and tenders a vote, only the vote of the joint holder whose name appears first on the register is counted.
All resolutions will be by poll
In accordance with rule 27 of the Company's Constitution, the Chairman of the Meeting intends to demand a poll on each of the resolutions proposed at the EGM. Each resolution considered at the EGM will therefore be conducted by a poll, rather than on a show of hands. The Chairman of the Meeting considers voting by poll to be in the best interests of the shareholders as a whole and is a way to ensure the views of as many shareholders as possible are represented at the Meeting.
Appointment of Proxy
If you are a shareholder entitled to attend and vote, you may appoint an individual or a body corporate as a proxy. If a body corporate is appointed as a proxy, that body corporate must ensure that it appoints a corporate representative in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act to exercise its powers as proxy at the EGM. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.
