The vote teller [is] the shareholder representing...
The whole sentence would be:
The vote teller is the shareholder representing - on his own behalf as well as by proxy - the most shares and, if he/she refuses, the shareholder representing the next highest number, as so on until the position is accepted.

returning officer, etc
"returning officer" seems to scrutateur outside the U.S. (Í'm not sure inside).
Is elected returning officer the associate who represents, either by himself or as proxy, the largest number of shares, and, in the case of his refusal, he who has the next largest, until someone accepts the position.

the representant associate is an examiner
I fill this is just an affirmative phrase but I think that they are using this kind of structure to "emphasize" the functions of the associate.

: As our colleagues have noted, the position of vote-teller or scrutineer is a very specific one in corporate proceedings!

The scrutineer shall be the member representing / controlling [the greatest number of sahres]
I agree generally with the other proposals, but since this is prescriptive rather than descriptive "shall" seems more natural to the ear.
