that it is necessary for the Company to hold a spill meeting
as a consequence of the Annual General Meeting (which will be
held on 28 November 2012) the spill meeting will be held on

cast on the resolution to adopt the remuneration report are
against the adoption of the report the Company will be
obliged pursuant to section 250B of the Corporations Act to
put to the vote a resolution that another meeting of the
Company (the spill meeting) will be held within 90 days. The
Company has given notice that in the event that the spill
resolution is passed such meeting will be held on 12 December

hold the spill meeting on 12 December 2012 the following
