In accordance with section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act Resolution 1 in the Notice of Annual General Meeting is for Shareholders to adopt the Company's 2014 Remuneration Report. In the event that the Remuneration Report receives a "no" vote of 25% or more of votes ("Strike") at two consecutive annual general meetings, Shareholders will have the opportunity to seek to remove the whole board except the Managing Director pursuant to Resolution 5 at the Annual General Meeting. The Company's Remuneration Report received a first Strike at the last annual general meeting. Resolution 5 may be put to Shareholders to call for an additional meeting of Shareholders to be held within 90 days of the Annual General Meeting ("Spill Meeting") to vote on whether to remove existing Directors (except the Managing Director) and appoint replacement directors. However, Shareholders should be aware that there is no guarantee that new directors will be identified who would be deemed suitable to be directors of the Company under the AIM Rules for Companies.
To address Shareholder remuneration concerns, since last year the size of the Board has been reduced from 7 members to the current level of 3 and Directors' fee s and total key management personnel (KMP) remuneration have been substantially reduced. The Board trusts that Shareholders will be satisfied with the significant reduction in both the Board size and KMP remuneration, and accordingly the Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
