Important Notes

Requisite Majority

Each of the Resolutions is an ordinary resolution. An ordinary

resolution requires the approval of a simple majority of votes of

those Shareholders entitled to vote and voting (in person, by proxy

or by postal vote) in order for it to be passed.

Each Resolution is a separate resolution to be voted on separately

by Shareholders. Accordingly, each Resolution may be approved

regardless of the outcome of the vote on any other resolution.

Determining entitlement to vote

The persons (or their proxies or representatives) who will be

entitled to vote on the Resolutions at the Meeting are those

persons who are shareholders at 5.00pm on Tuesday 18 April

2017, and only the shares registered in those shareholders’ names

on that date may be voted at the meeting.

Proxies and corporate representatives

Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting may

appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. A proxy need

not be a Shareholder. For example, shareholders may appoint the

Chairman of the Board or another person (such as the chairman of

the meeting) to act as their proxy. It is intended that the Chairman

of the Board be the Chairman of the Meeting, except in respect of

his own re-election where Mr John McMahon will act as Chairman

of the Meeting and cast proxy votes recorded for the “Chairman of

the Meeting”. The Chairman of the Board has advised that it is his

intention to abstain from voting discretionary proxies held by him in

favour of his own re-election.





If additional matters are raised during the course of the Annual

Meeting which require a shareholder vote, your proxy will be

entitled to vote as he or she thinks fit.

Shareholders may revoke their proxies by giving written notice of

revocation to the Company in the manner set out below no later

than 3.00pm on Wednesday 19 April 2017.

Postal voting

Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting may cast a

postal vote instead of attending in person or appointing a proxy to

attend. Wellington’s Company Secretary has been authorised by

the Board of Wellington to receive and count postal votes at the

Meeting.

Return of Voting and Proxy Form

A Voting and Proxy Form accompanies this Notice of Meeting.

If a Shareholder wishes to appoint a proxy or (in the case of a

corporate Shareholder), a representative or cast a postal vote, the

Voting and Proxy Form must be received by Wellington no later

than 3.00pm on 19 April 2017. The delivery, post, facsimile and

email addresses of Wellington for this purpose are as follows:
