I think the most relevant item here is that the proxy advisors are supporting the Chairman

From article:
"ISS recommended a vote for Mr Spence’s re-election, citing “no material issues” over his performance or over broader corporate governance."
"CGI Glass Lewis rebuffed the push by the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility to have Mr Spence’s re-election blocked, noting that Santos’ performance in terms of total shareholder returns remains “positive and significant” over one, three and five-year time horizons."

I think this just goes to show that people want to make mountains out of molehills when it comes to Santos.
