Approve Remuneration Policy of Chairman and CEO
Vote rationale:
The board is responsible for attracting the right CEO and setting appropriate remuneration. A substantial proportion of annual remuneration should be provided as shares that are locked in for five to ten years, regardless of resignation or retirement. The board should provide transparency on total remuneration to avoid unacceptable outcomes. The board should ensure that all benefits have a clear business rationale. Pensionable income should constitute a minor part of total remuneration.

Amend Article 16 and 24 of Bylaws Re: Age Limit of CEO and Shareholding Disclosure Thresholds
Vote rationale:
Anti-takeover measures are generally not in the interest of shareholders, and the introduction of such measures should, at a minimum, be subject to shareholder approval. We define anti-takeover measures to include any mechanism likely to deter or frustrate takeovers.
