Resolution 4 - Auditors' re-appointment and remuneration

The resolution relating to the auditors' reappointment and remuneration is usual business for the Annual General Meeting.

Resolution 5 - Authority of Directors to allot shares

This is an ordinary resolution granting general authority to the directors to allot new ordinary shares up to the thresholds described in Resolution 5. This resolution renews the authority granted at the last Annual General Meeting. The authority will expire on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company.

Resolution 6 - Dis-application of pre-emption rights

This is a special resolution authorising the directors to allot ordinary shares for cash up to the thresholds described in Resolution 6 on a non pre-emptive basis pursuant to the authority conferred by Resolution 5 above. This will allow the Board to move quickly from time to time as it deems appropriate without recourse to the shareholders, and renews the authority granted at the last Annual General Meeting. This authority will expire on the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company.

A form of proxy for use at the Meeting is enclosed. Please complete the form of proxy by entering the name of the person(s) you wish to be your proxy, the number of shares the proxy will be representing and which you hold, sign the form of proxy and include your name and address (please do not forget to include this) and return it to the Registrars so as to arrive no later than 10.00 a.m. 22 June 2016.

Yours faithfully

Ian Holzberger
