**AAC ACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGIES HOLDINGS INC. 瑞聲聲學科技控股有限公司 ***
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability) (Stock code: 2018)
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Board of AAC Acoustic Technologies Holdings Inc. proposes to change the English name of the Company from “AAC Acoustic Technologies Holdings Inc.” to “AAC Technologies Holdings Inc.” and to change the Chinese name from “瑞聲聲學科技控股有限公司” (which was previously adopted by the Company for identification purpose) to “瑞聲科技控股有限公司”.
A circular containing, among other things, (i) details regarding the Proposed Change of Company Name; and (ii) a notice convening the AGM will be despatched to the Shareholders as soon as possible.
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The board of directors (the “Board”) of AAC Acoustic Technologies Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) proposes to change the English name of the Company from “AAC ACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGIES HOLDINGS INC.” to “AAC TECHNOLOGIES HOLDINGS INC.” and the Chinese name from “瑞聲聲學科技控股有限公司” (which was previously adopted by the Company for identification purpose) to “瑞聲科技控股有限公司” (the “Proposed Change of Company Name”).
CONDITIONS FOR THE CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Proposed Change of Company Name is subject to the following conditions:
-
(i) the passing of a special resolution by the shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) at the forthcoming annual general meeting of the Company (the “AGM”) approving the Proposed Change of Company Name; and
-
1 -
-
(ii) the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands granting approval for the use by the Company of the proposed English name of “AAC TECHNOLOGIES HOLDINGS INC.” and the proposed Chinese name of “瑞聲科技控股有限公司”.
The new names of the Company will take effect from the date on which the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands enters the new names of the Company on the register in place of the former name. The Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands shall issue the certificate of incorporation on change of name thereafter. The Company will then carry out all necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.
REASON FOR THE CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Company continues to extend its ability to miniaturise components into other technologies beyond acoustics. The Board, therefore, considers the proposed change of our company name will better reflect the scope and aspiration for the Company’s business as well as simplify the name. This change will not affect the Company’s existing business nor our focus in the acoustic segment. Overall, the Board believes that the Proposed Change of Company Name is in the interest of the Company and Shareholders.
EFFECT OF CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Proposed Change of Company Name will not affect any of the rights of the holders of securities of the Company. All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the existing English name of the Company will, after the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be evidence of title to such securities and will remain to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery purpose. Accordingly, there will not be any arrangement for free exchange of the existing share certificates for new share certificates bearing the new English and Chinese names of the Company.
Upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, new share certificates of the Company will be issued under the new English and Chinese names of the Company, and the English and Chinese stock short names of the Company will also be changed.
GENERAL
A circular containing, among other things, (i) details of the Proposed Change of Company Name and (ii) a notice convening the AGM will be despatched to the Shareholders as soon as practicable.
