GUIDANCE FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

ATTENDING THE AGM BY MEANS OF ELECTRONIC FACILITIES

No Shareholder, proxy or corporate representative should attend the AGM in person. The Company strongly encourages Shareholders to attend, participate and vote at the AGM through online access by visiting the website — http://meetings.computershare.com/Cowelle2022AGM (the “ Online Platform ”). Shareholders participating in the AGM using the Online Platform will also be counted towards the quorum and they will be able to cast their vote and submit questions through the Online Platform.

The Online Platform permits a “split vote” on a resolution, in other words, a Shareholder casting his/her/its votes through the Online Platform does not have to vote all of his/her/its shares in the same way (“ For ” or “ Against ”). In the case of a proxy, he/she can vote such number of shares in respect of which he/she has been appointed as a proxy. Votes cast through the Online Platform are irrevocable once the voting session at the AGM ends.

The Online Platform will be open for registered Shareholders and non-registered Shareholders (see below for login details and arrangements) to log in approximately 30 minutes prior to the commencement of the AGM and can be accessed from any location with internet connection by a smart phone, tablet device or computer. Shareholders should allow ample time to check into the Online Platform to complete the related procedures. Please refer to the Online User Guide for the AGM sent together with this circular for assistance. Any missed contents as a result of connection issues arisen from the Shareholders will not be repeated.

Login details for registered Shareholders

Details regarding the AGM arrangements including login details to access the Online Platform are included in the Company’s notification letter to registered Shareholders sent together with this circular.

Login details for non-registered Shareholders

Non-registered Shareholders who wish to attend, participate and vote at the AGM using the Online Platform should:

  • (1) contact and instruct their banks, brokers, custodians, nominees or HKSCC Nominees Limited through which their shares are held (together, the “ Intermediary ”) to appoint themselves as proxy or corporate representative to attend the AGM; and

  • (2) provide their email address to their Intermediary before the time limit required by the relevant Intermediary.

The Board considers that Mr. Tsai possess rich experience in his skills and industries and is able to provide valuable advices in areas of information system, electronic computer engineering and/or business to the Company, thus contributing to better corporate governance of the Company.

He has contributed to the diversity of the Board in terms of his professional qualification, skills and knowledge.

Save as serving as independent non-executive Director, he has not taken up any other positions in the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or holding company. Therefore, the Board considered that Mr. Tsai is still independent and recommended the Shareholders to re-elect him as an independent non-executive Director.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to the Shareholders for their consideration of the proposed resolutions in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 844,246,800 Shares. Subject to the passing of Resolution No. 5 approving the Repurchase Mandate as set out in the notice of the AGM and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 84,424,680 Shares, representing 10% of the total issued Shares.

The Shares repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Mandate shall be cancelled automatically.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to purchase Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an increase of the net asset value of the Company and its assets and/or its earnings per Share and will only be made as and when the Directors believe such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing the Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December, 2022) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. The Directors, however, do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which, in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.
