ITEM 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(a) The Annual General Meeting of the Company was held on November 29, 2011.
(b) The voting results of the Annual General Meeting are set forth in Exhibit 99.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.
(d) Shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, the holding of an advisory vote on executive compensation on an annual basis.
The Australian Corporations Act requires companies whose shares are quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) to include a remuneration report in such companies’ Australian annual report. The Corporations Act also requires that the remuneration report be adopted on an advisory basis by shareholders each year.
As a result, the Company has decided to hold an annual advisory vote both on the Australian remuneration report and on the U.S. compensation of named executive officers.
The Company is required by SEC rules to hold an advisory vote with respect to the frequency of shareholder votes on executive compensation no later than the annual or other meeting of shareholders in 2017.
