Notes for the Appointment of proxies
1.
As a member of the Company, you are entitled to appoint one or more proxies to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and
vote at the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM and you should have received a proxy form with this notice of meeting.
You can only appoint
a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes.
2.
A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company but must attend the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM (as applicable) to represent
you.
To appoint as your proxy a person other than the Chairman of the meeting, insert their full name in the box on the proxy form. If you sign
and return the proxy form with no name inserted in the box, the Chairman of the meeting will be deemed to be your proxy. Where you appoint as
your proxy someone other than the Chairman, you are responsible for ensuring that they attend the meeting and are aware of your voting intentions.
If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM (as applicable) you will need to appoint your own choice
of proxy (not the Chairman) and give your instructions directly to them.
3.
You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares.
You may not
appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one share. To appoint more than one proxy, you must complete one proxy form for
each proxy and state how many shares the proxy has voting rights over. Failure to specify the number of shares each proxy appointment relates to
or specifying a number of shares in excess of those held by the member on the record date will result in the proxy appointments being invalid.
4. If you do not give your proxy an indication of how to vote on any resolution, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at his or her
discretion.
Unless instructed otherwise, your proxy (provided he is not the chairman) may also vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks
fit in relation to any other matter which may properly be put before the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM (as applicable).
An “abstain” vote is not
a vote in law and will not be counted in the proportion of votes for or against any resolution.
5. To appoint a proxy using the proxy form, the form must be:
completed and signed;
sent or delivered to the Company marked for the attention of Sara Soliman at 6
th
Floor, Symphony Tower 2, Salem Al Mubarak Street, Block
2, Salmiya, Kuwait; and
received by the Company no later than:
-
10:00am in Kuwait (GMT + 3 hours) on 30 November 2015 in the case of proxy appointments for the Adjourned AGM; and
-
10:30am in Kuwait (GMT + 3 hours) on 30 November 2015 in the case of proxy appointments for the EGM.
In the case of a member which is a company, the proxy form must be executed under seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or
an attorney for the company.
Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be
included with the proxy form.
6. Where there are joint registered holders of any share, such persons shall not have the right of voting individually in respect of such share but must
elect one of their number to represent them and to vote whether in person or by proxy in their name. In default of such election, the person whose
name appears first in order in the Company’s register of members in respect of such share is the only person entitled to vote in respect of such
share.
7. To change your proxy instructions submit a new proxy appointment using the methods set out above. Note that the cut-off time for receipt of
proxy appointments (see above) also applies in relation to amended instructions; any amended proxy appointment received after the relevant cut-
off time will be disregarded.
If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take
precedence.
8. In order to revoke a proxy instruction you will need to inform the Company by sending a signed hard copy notice clearly stating your intention to
revoke your proxy appointment for the attention of Sara Soliman at 6
th
Floor, Symphony Tower 2, Salem Al Mubarak Street, Salmiya, Kuwait.
In the case of a member which is a company, the revocation notice must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer
of the company or an attorney for the company. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the revocation notice is signed (or a
duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the revocation notice.
The revocation notice must be received by the Company no later than:
10:00am local time in Kuwait (GMT + 3 hours) on 30 November 2015 in the case of proxy appointments for the Adjourned AGM; and
10:30am local time in Kuwait (GMT + 3 hours) on 30 November 2015 in the case of proxy appointments for the EGM.
If you attempt to revoke your proxy appointment but the revocation is received after the time specified then, subject to the paragraph directly
below, your proxy appointment will remain valid.
Appointment of a proxy does not preclude you from attending the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM and voting in person. If you have appointed
a proxy and attend the Adjourned AGM and/or the EGM (as applicable) in person, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.
