LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED CHANGE OF AUDITORS
At the annual general meeting held on 2 December 2005, the Shareholders had not passed the resolution regarding the re-appointment of RSM Nelson Wheeler as auditors of the Company. For that reason, Johnny Chan & Co. Limited, Certified Public Accountants, is proposed to be appointed as new auditors of the Company following the retirement of RSM Nelson Wheeler, upon the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM and to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company.
The Board and Audit Committee of the Company confirms that there is no disagreement between the Company and RSM Nelson Wheeler and there are no circumstances in respect of the Change of Auditors that it considers should be brought to the attention of the Shareholders and creditors of the Company. In their letter of retirement, RSM Nelson Wheeler confirmed that there were no circumstances or matters that need to be brought to the attention of the shareholders and creditors of the Company in relation to the Change of Auditors.
