who is a natural person to be the proxy of the appointing member and to attend, and vote on behalf of
the appointing member at, any general meeting.

signature and membership number;
(b) votes must be in writing and received in hard copy format by the Secretary no later than
24 hours prior to the general meeting; and each issue to be considered at the
