The Board announced on 4 January 2021 that it proposed to change the official registered English name of the Company from “China LotSynergy Holdings Limited” to “China Ecotourism Group Limited” and to adopt the name of “中國生態旅遊集團有限 公司” as the name of the Company in Chinese to replace its existing name in Chinese “華 彩控股有限公司” which is currently used for identification purpose only, subject to the conditions set out below being fulfilled.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Reasons for the Proposed Change of Company Name

As disclosed in the Announcement, the Company has entered into a “Strategic Cooperation Agreement on Development of Ecotourism Spots in China” with China Eco Development Association that, pursuant to that agreement, the parties intend to establish a comprehensive strategic partnership to cooperate in the development of ecotourism business in China. The Company believes that entering into that agreement will enable the Group to utilize the respective resource advantages of both parties and cooperate more efficiently in the construction of ecotourism service system and related businesses. That agreement is a strategic cooperation framework agreement which establishes the cooperative relationship and development direction of both parties. The specific details and terms of the development of ecotourism business in China are subject to further negotiation between both parties.

The Board considers that the Proposed Change of Company Name will demonstrate the Group’s future strategy and provide the Group with a new corporate image which will enable the Group to better identify itself and capture potential business opportunities for its future development. Therefore, the Board considers that the Proposed Change of Company Name is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Conditions and Effects of the Proposed Change of Company Name

The Proposed Change of Company Name is subject to the following conditions having been satisfied:

  • (i) the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders approving the Proposed Change of Company Name at the SGM; and

  • (ii) the approval of the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda having been obtained for the Proposed Change of Company Name.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set out above, the Proposed Change of Company Name will take effect from the date on which the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda registers the new name of the Company on the register in place of the existing name of the Company. Thereafter, the Company will carry out the necessary filing or registration procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.

The Proposed Change of Company Name will not affect any right of the Shareholders. Upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, all issued share certificates bearing the current name of the Company will continue to be evidence of title to the shares of the Company and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery purposes. Therefore, there will not be any arrangement for free exchange of the issued share certificates of the Company for new share certificates bearing the new name of the Company. Any issue of new share certificates after the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective will be under the new name of the Company.
