Summary
Santos advises that it will not be putting the proposed resolution to the AGM
On Thursday 3 March 2016, Santos received a notice requesting a resolution for consideration at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 4 May 2016. Of the 104 signatories, 98 have been verified as shareholders, representing approximately 0.019% of the Company’s shares on issue. A copy of the notice is attached.
Santos advises that it will not be putting the proposed resolution to the AGM for the following reasons:
- the requisition fails to satisfy the requirements of section 249N of the Corporations Act;
- a similar resolution was the subject of extensive debate at the 2014 AGM and overwhelmingly rejected by shareholders with 99.2% of the vote cast against the resolution; and
- the proposed resolution would not have been a legally binding resolution and the Board would not have been required to include it on the AGM agenda.
Ends.
