If you wish to vote without attending the meeting, you can assign a proxy &#8211; there are two types of proxies available for creditors to assign. You can assign a general proxy, which allows the person holding the proxy to vote as they choose on your behalf.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can assign a special proxy which is where you assign a vote in respect of all the resolutions in the meeting notice.

If a poll is called then there must be\u00a0a majority of\u00a0creditors in number of votes, and in value.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For example, if 10 creditors vote in favour with a total value of $10M vs 2 creditors against with a total value of $2M. That would be a majority in number and a majority in value. If the vote is split, where\u00a0a majority of\u00a0creditors in number vote one way but the majority in value votes another way, the Chairperson may use a casting vote to break the deadlock. The casting vote\u00a0determines\u00a0the result. Only the Chairperson can use a casting vote.<\/p>\n                  <h5>Will the outcome be confirmed during the meeting?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>Yes, the outcome will be known once the resolution is\u00a0determined\u00a0during the meeting.\u00a0<\/p>\n                  <h5>What happens if the proposed DOCA is approved? <\/h5>\n                                      <p>If creditors approve the proposed DOCA, the company moves into the next stage of the process. The deed is then formally executed and implemented in line with its terms. This usually sets out how creditor claims will be dealt with, how the company will continue\u00a0operating, and how any recapitalisation or payment process will occur.\u00a0<\/p>\n                  <h5>What happens if the proposed DOCA is not approved?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>If the DOCA is not approved the Company will\u00a0likely be\u00a0wound up at the reconvened second meeting of creditors (placed into Liquidation).\u00a0<\/p>\n                  <h5>Is voting confidential?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>No, it is not confidential.<\/p>\n                  <h5>Who should I contact if I have questions about voting?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>If you have questions you can speak to Hudson Customer Experience Team via\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:support@hudson.com\">support@hudson.com<\/a>,\u00a0or WLP via hudsonstaff@wlpr.com.au.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section><section>\n                  <h2>Superannuation entitlements<\/h2>\n                  <h5>When will super be paid?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>Outstanding superannuation will be paid on effectuation of the DOCA, subject to the outcome of the reconvened second creditors&#8217; meeting and creditor vote. At this stage, DOCA effectuation is estimated to occur on 30 June.

This payment will include applicable interest. Interest applies for the date after it was due (28th of April to 30th of June) The ATO will then process and allocate the payment to the relevant superannuation funds.

Payments are expected to be initiated when the DOCA is effectuated, which is currently estimated to occur on 30 June.<\/p>\n<p>However, because payments are subject to either the ATO&#8217;s SGC process or standard superannuation clearing house processing times, the funds are expected to appear in individual superannuation accounts after 30 June, which means they will be received into the 2027 financial year.<\/p>\n<p>The exact timing will depend on the processing timeframes.<\/p>\n                  <h5>Do I need to take any action with the ATO regarding unpaid superannuation that is being paid through the SGC process?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>No, there is no need to take any action with ATO regarding the unpaid superannuation that is being paid though the SGC process.

No further steps are required other than arranging for the payment to the ATO.<\/p>\n                  <h5>How long does the ATO generally take to process SGC payments and allocate them to superannuation funds?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>The Administrators have asked the ATO to advise on the timing for the SGC payments to be processed once paid. We are waiting on their reply but we understand from our general enquiries that it takes between 1-3 months for the SGC to be processed by the ATO and payment made to the relevant superannuation fund.<\/p>\n                  <h5>Can I make a personal top-up contribution to my super for FY26, given the outstanding employer superannuation is expected to be received after 30 June?<\/h5>\n                                      <p>Yes. Based on the current estimated timing, outstanding employer superannuation is expected to be received after 30 June, meaning it is expected to be received in FY27.<\/p>\n<p>However, personal superannuation contributions are subject to individual contribution caps and tax considerations.
