ATTACHMENT
Resolution 1
Resolution 1 - Special resolution to amend our company’s constitution
To amend the constitution to insert a new clause 46: Member resolutions at general meeting
The shareholders in a general meeting may by ordinary resolution express an opinion, ask for information, or make a request, about the way in which a power of the company partially or exclusively vested in the directors has been or should be exercised. However, such a resolution must relate to an issue of material relevance to the company or the company’s business as identified by the company, and cannot either advocate action which would violate any law or relate to any personal claim or grievance. Such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the directors or the company.
Resolution 2
Resolution 2 - Ordinary resolution on company consistency with limiting warming to 1.5°C
Shareholders request that our company proactively advocate for Australian policy settings that are consistent with the Paris Agreement’s objective of limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
Nothing in this resolution should be read as limiting the Board’s discretion to take decisions in the best interests of our company.
Resolution 3
Resolution 3 - Ordinary resolution on climate accounting and audit

• | includes a scenario aligned with limiting warming to 1.5°C, |
• | presents the quantitative estimates and judgements for all scenarios used, and |

Nothing in this resolution should be read as limiting the Board’s discretion to take decisions in the best interests of our company.
