governance and extensive financial experience. Carol is a director and Chair of the Audit and Risk

Carol Campbell has been a Kingfish director for just over twelve years, having joined the Kingfish

to bringing an independent judgement to bear on issues before the board, act in the best interests of
the Company and to represent the interests of shareholders generally. The board wishes to retain her
institutional knowledge, having already appointed two new directors (as part of the board’s succession
planning) in the previous three years. The board therefore unanimously supports her re-election.

the resolutions by completing FOR, AGAINST, ABSTAIN or PROXY DISCRETION
