Board Structure and Composition

Under the Board Charter, the Board will comprise six members, of which at least three must be independent non-executive Directors. The Company acknowledges that this does not constitute a majority of independent non-executive directors but believes the Board is of a suitable composition and possesses the necessary skills to govern the Company. Details of each directors skill, expertise and background are contained within the directors report included with the company's annual financial statements and elsewhere in this website.

Independence, in this context, is defined to mean a non-executive Director who is free from any interest and any business or other relationship that could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the Director's ability to act in the best interests of Birla Minerals. The definition of independence in ASX Recommendation 2.1 is taken into account for this purpose.

A Director cannot hold the position of both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Birla Minerals' non-executive Directors may not hold office for a continuous period in excess of three years or past the third annual general meeting following their appointment, whichever is longer, without submitting for re-election. Directors are elected or re-elected, as the case may be, by shareholders in a general meeting. Directors may offer themselves for re-election.

A Director appointed by the Directors (e.g., to fill a casual vacancy) will hold office only until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of Birla Minerals but is eligible for re-election at that meeting.

The Charter provides that the Board will meet at least six times a year, and that non-executive Directors will meet together without the presence of executive Directors at least twice each year.

Under Birla Minerals' Constitution, voting requires a simple majority of the Board. The Chairman does not presently hold a casting vote, however if the Board were to later resolve to permit the Chairman to have a casting vote, this would need to be approved by a majority of Directors.
