I am translating the Articles of Association of a company into Spanish. In the section where an example of an instrument appointing a proxy is given the phrase "and failing him of _ to vote for me and on my behalf at the General Meeting..." can be found. I have found it absolutely imposible to translate "and filing him of _". The whole example looks like this:
I, the undersigned, of __________, a member of __________ and entitle to _ votes hereby appoint __________ of __________, and failing him of _ to vote for me and on my behalf at the General Meeting of the Company to be held on the _____ day of __________ and at every adjournment thereof."
As Witness my hand this _____ day of _____ 20__.
I will appreciate any help you can provide me with.
