Base Resources Limited
Results of 2023 Annual General Meeting
Base Resources Limited (ASX & AIM: BSE) (Base Resources or the Company)
advises that the results of the resolutions put to Base Resources shareholders
at today’s meeting are set out in the table below.
All resolutions put to the meeting were decided by poll and were carried,
other than items 1 and 5 which were not carried.
Items 1 and 5 both concerned remuneration-related matters, with item 1 seeking
adoption of the Company’s remuneration report for the 2023 financial year.
As 25% or more of the votes cast on item 1 were against the resolution, this
constitutes a ‘first strike’ for the purposes of the Corporations Act 2001
(Cth).
The Board will seek to further engage with shareholders to understand their
rationale for voting against these remuneration related items. In the event
that their voting decisions were driven by concerns with Base Resources’
remuneration policy and practices, the Board will take these matters into
account as part of its consideration of the Company’s future remuneration
policy and practices.
