Rule 126 Use of proxies at meetingsI1
England and Wales
A proxy given for a particular meeting may be used at any adjournment of that meeting.
Where the administrator holds proxies to be used by the administrator as chair of a meeting, and some other person acts as chair, the other person may use the administrator’s proxies as if that person was the proxy-holder.
Where a proxy directs a proxy-holder to vote for or against a resolution for the nomination or appointment of a person as the administrator, the proxy-holder may, unless the proxy states otherwise, vote for or against (as they think fit) any resolution for the nomination or appointment of that person jointly with another or others.
A proxy-holder may propose any resolution which, if proposed by another, would be a resolution in favour of which by virtue of the proxy they would be entitled to vote.
Where a proxy gives specific directions as to voting, this does not, unless the proxy states otherwise, preclude the proxy-holder from voting at their discretion on resolutions put to the meeting which are not dealt with in the proxy.
