LETTER FROM THE BOARD
III. VOTING BY POLL AT THE EGM
Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, all votes of shareholders of a listed issuer at the EGM must be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. The chairman of the EGM will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote at the EGM pursuant to the Articles.
On a poll, every Shareholder or his/her proxy (or, if the shareholder is a company, its duly authorised representative), who is present at the EGM, shall have one vote for each Share registered in his/her/its name in the register of members. A Shareholder entitled to more than one vote needs not use all his/her/its votes or cast all his/her/its votes in the same way.
IV. RECOMMENDATION
The Board considers that all the resolution(s) set out in the notice of the EGM for Shareholders' consideration and approval are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. As such, the Board recommends the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolution(s) set out in the notice of the EGM which are to be proposed at the EGM.
