    result of a show of hands on that resolution is declared.
    (2) A poll may be demanded by—
    (a) the chairman of the meeting;
    (b) the directors;
    (c) two or more persons having the right to vote on the resolution; or
    (d) a person or persons representing not less than one tenth of the total voting rights of all the

    (4) Polls must be taken immediately and in such manner as the chairman of the meeting directs.

    Content of proxy notices


    45.—(1) Proxies may only validly be appointed by a notice in writing (a “proxy notice”) which—
    (a) states the name and address of the shareholder appointing the proxy;
    (b) identifies the person appointed to be that shareholder’s proxy and the general meeting in relation
    to which that person is appointed;
    (c) is signed by or on behalf of the shareholder appointing the proxy, or is authenticated in such
    manner as the directors may determine; and
    (d) is delivered to the company in accordance with the articles and any instructions contained in the
    notice of the general meeting to which they relate.
    (2) The company may require proxy notices to be delivered in a particular form, and may specify different
    forms for different purposes.
    (3) Proxy notices may specify how the proxy appointed under them is to vote (or that the proxy is to
    abstain from voting) on one or more resolutions.
    (4) Unless a proxy notice indicates otherwise, it must be treated as—
    (a) allowing the person appointed under it as a proxy discretion as to how to vote on any ancillary or

    (b) appointing that person as a proxy in relation to any adjournment of the general meeting to which
    it relates as well as the meeting itself.
