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.
-
Resolution 2 - Election of Director
To consider, and if thought fit pass, with or without amendment, the following Resolution as an ordinary resolution:
'That Mr Guy T Le Page being a Director of the Company who retires by rotation pursuant to the Company's Constitution, and being eligible offers himself for re-election is hereby re-elected as a Director of the Company.'
-

To transact any business which may be brought before the meeting in accordance with the Constitution of the Company, the Act, or otherwise.
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: By post or hand delivery to the Registered Office:
Level 15, 197 St Georges Terrace, Perth, Western Australia 6000 By Post to Level 15, 197 St Georges Terrace, Perth, Western Australia 6000 or PO Box 7055, Cloisters Square, Perth Western Australia 6850
By facsimile to: (08) 9282 5866
Each shareholder entitled to vote at the Annual 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 directed the Chairman to vote in accordance with the Chairman's stated voting intention (that is, to vote in favour of such resolution).
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 Annual General Meeting. This proxy form may be sent by facsimile transmission to the number identified on the proxy form.
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 2015 will be entitled to attend and vote at the Annual 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.
