2. This form will be revoked by a later proxy appointment form delivered to the secretary of the owners corporation in the manner described in the preceding paragraph.
3. This proxy is valid for any general meetings held during the period (if any) specified on page 1 of this form. If no period is specified then this proxy ends after 12 months or two annual general meetings, whichever occurs later.
4. If a person holds more than the total number of proxies permissible, the person cannot vote using any additional proxies. The total number of proxies that may be held by a person (other than proxies held by the person as the co-owner of a lot) voting on a resolution are as follows:
(a) if the strata scheme has 20 lots or less, one,
(b) if the strata scheme has more than 20 lots, a number that is equal to not more than 5% of the total number of lots.
5. A provision of a contract for the sale of a lot in a strata scheme, or of any ancillary or related contract or arrangement, is void and unenforceable to the extent that it:
(a) requires the purchaser of a lot, or any other person, to cast a vote at a meeting of the owners corporation at the direction of another person, or
(b) requires the purchaser to give a proxy at the direction of another person for the purpose of voting at a meeting of the owners corporation (that is a person cannot rely on any such proxy to cast a vote as a proxy).

(c) if appointed as a proxy for more than one person, may vote separately as a proxy in each case.
