Notes:
-
A member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the EGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote instead of him/her. A member who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint more than one proxy to represent him and vote on his behalf at the EGM. A proxy need not be a member of the Company.
-
The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointer or his attorney duly authorised in writing, or if the appointer is a corporation, either under seal or under the hand of an officer or attorney duly authorised on its behalf.
-
In the case of joint holders of shares, any one of such holders may vote at the EGM, either personally or by proxy, in respect of such share as if he/she was solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders are present at the EGM personally or by proxy, that one of the said persons so present whose name stands first on the register of members of the Company in respect of such shares shall alone be entitled to vote in respect thereof.
-
In order to be valid, the proxy form must be duly completed and signed in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and deposited together with a power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed, or a certified copy of such power or authority, at the Company’s share registrar, Tricor Investor Services Limited at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong, as soon as possible and, in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the EGM (i.e. before 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 16 March 2021) or any adjournment thereof (as the case may be). Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude a member from attending in person and voting at the EGM or any adjournment thereof, should he so wish and in such event, the proxy form will be deemed to be revoked.
-
The register of members of the Company will be closed from Monday, 15 March 2021 to Thursday, 18 March 2021, both days inclusive, to determine the entitlement of the shareholders of the Company to attend and vote at the EGM, during which period no share transfers will be registered. All share transfer documents together with the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited, Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong for registration not later than 4:30 p.m. on Friday, 12 March 2021.
