A shareholder or the proxy is not obliged to use all the votes exercisable by the shareholder or by his proxy, but the total of the votes cast and in respect of which abstention is recorded may not exceed the total of the votes exercisable by the shareholder or by the proxy.

  • if the instrument appointing a proxy has been delivered by a shareholder to a company, then, for so long as that appointment remains in effect,
