Rights attached to shares

(a) Voting rights

Subject to some limited exceptions, each member has the right to vote at a general meeting.

On a show of hands or a poll, each member attending the meeting (whether they are attending the meeting

in person or by attorney, corporate representative or proxy) has one vote, regardless of the number of shares

held. However, where a person attends a meeting in person and is entitled to vote in more than one capacity

(for example, the person is a member and has also been appointed as proxy for another member) that person

may only exercise one vote on a show of hands. On a poll, that person may exercise one vote as a member and

one vote for each other member that person represents as duly appointed attorney, corporate representative or

proxy.

The purpose of giving each member only one vote, regardless of the number of shares held, is to reflect the

nature of the company as a community based company, by providing that all members of the community who

have contributed to the establishment and ongoing operation of the Community Bank® branch have the same

ability to influence the operation of the company.

(b) Dividends

Generally, dividends are payable to members in proportion to the amount of the share capital paid up on the

shares held by them, subject to any special rights and restrictions for the time being attaching to shares. The

franchise agreement with Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited contains a limit on the level of profits or funds

that may be distributed to shareholders. There is also a restriction on the payment of dividends to certain

shareholders if they have a prohibited shareholding interest (see below).

(c) Transfer

Generally, ordinary shares are freely transferable. However, the directors have a discretion to refuse to register

a transfer of shares.
