Resolution 9 was a special resolution to provide the Directors with authority to allot equity securities for cash without first offering to existing shareholders pro rata to their holdings and was subject to the passing of Resolution 7. This authority was limited to approximately 10 per cent of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.
