I know it's not the "done thing" to push an agenda on here, but I would respectfully ask that this post not be removed by the mods as it is about the only way of contacting many holders at once.
The following is from the Lynas Shareholders Association, and refers to the need for 100 signatures for the inclusion of resolutions at the AGM, which is now to be held on 20th November. The signatures are needed THIS WEEK.
==== START QUOTE ====
THIS IS ADDRESSED TO ALL LONG TERM LYNAS SHAREHOLDERS.
YOUR ATTENTION AND URGENT ACTION IS REQUIRED.
IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS OR FAMILY WHO ALSO HOLD LYNAS SHARES PLEASE PASS THIS ONTO THEM FOR THEIR CONSIDERATION.
PEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE COVERING LETTER VERY CAREFULLY. RETURN THE FORMS DIRECT TO LYNAS
The Lynas Shareholders group has been working behind the scenes to encourage the Board to make the necessary changes to bring the company fully in line with the ASX good corporate governance guidelines.
At this stage the Board has not indicated to our group that they are willing to make the changes to the Board structure that we have requested.
1. That the role of Chairperson and that of CEO be filled by two separate persons
2. That the role of Chairperson be filled by a Non-Executive Independent Director.
To obtain copies of the two resolutions that are proposed to be put at the AGM by the shareholders group contact
[email protected]
before Wednesday 19th of September 2012.
The resolutions must be signed and delivered to the offices of Lynas in Sydney by COB on Thursday the 20th of September 2012.
Of the companies that comprise the ASX 100 there are only three that have the position of CEO & Chairperson filled by the same individual, these being Newscorp,Lynas and Resmed.
The Lynas shareholders group is simply asking the company to join the vast majority of its peers in having a Non-Executive Independent Director filling the role of Chairperson.
The Australian Shareholders Association (ASA)Policy Guidelines also support the position of the Lynas Shareholders Group.

If we reach the magic 100 signatures by close of business Thursday 20th of September then the company will be legally obligated to include our resolutions in the Notice of Meeting to be sent out 30 days before the AGM to ALL SHAREHOLDERS for them to Vote upon. The company has absolutely no grounds on which to pursue individual shareholders who sign the resolutions after all we are only exercising “shareholder’s rights” under the Corporations law, also we have not made any defamatory statements in our 249P statement. LSA has done its very best to ensure that our resolutions piggy back off the AGM so that the company has no grounds to charge the signatories for the cost of calling a meeting as could well happen if we insisted upon an EGM (approx cost $30,000 in postage & printing alone).
==== END QUOTE ====
Thanks for any help in trying to get Lynas to conform to normal governance. And if you don't agree with the aims, then thanks for not taking this as stirring.
