(L) Attention: In respect of resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8) in relation to the election (or re-election, as the case may be) of executive directors, the method of cumulative voting will be adopted for these resolutions and the calculation of voting results. When you fill in the blanks entitled “Cumulative Voting”, please fill them in in accordance with the following instructions:
-
(i) In relation to resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8), for every share held by you, you will have the same number of voting rights which equals to the number of directors to be elected (or re-elected, as the case may be). For instance, if you are holding 1 million shares and 8 directors will be elected (or re-elected, as the case may be) at this general meeting, the aggregate number of votes which you will have will be 8 million (i.e. 1 million shares x 8 = 8 million voting shares) for resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8).
-
(ii) Please note that you may cast your votes on every candidate director provided that the total number of votes which you cast do not exceed the number of votes to which you are entitled; cast all your votes which represent the total number of shares held by you multiplied by the total number of directors to be elected on one candidate; or cast your votes which represent the total number ofamongstshareseachheld candidateby you multipliedfor directors,by thepleasetotal numberfill “�”ofindirectorsthe appropriateto be electedspaceonundercertain“For”candidates.or “Against”.If youOtherwise,cast your votespleaseequallyfill in the “For” and/or “Against” space with the number of votes you intend to cast on each of the 8 candidates. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the number of votes you have regarding the resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8) is 8 million. You may choose to cast every 1 million votes out of the total 8 million votes equally amongst the 8 candidates (For or Against) or to cast all your votes (8 million) on one candidate (For or Against); or to cast 2 million votes on candidate A director (For or Against), cast 2 million votes on candidate B director (For or Against), and cast the remaining 4 million votes on candidate C director (For or Against) without casting any votes on other candidates for directors etc.
-
(iii) When the total votes, represented by the shares held by you multiplied by the number of directors to be elected, are used up after voting for some of the candidates, you will have no votes remaining to be cast on other candidates. i.e., the total number of both of your “For” and “Against” votes cast on the 8 candidates shall not exceed the aggregate number of votes to which you are entitled.
-
(iv) Please note that when the total votes cast by you on some candidate directors exceeds the total votes to which you are entitled, all the votes cast will become invalid and be regarded as abstain votes; when the total votes cast by you for some candidate directors are less than the total votes to which you are entitled, the votes are valid and the remaining votes will be regarded as abstain votes. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the total number of your votes which may be cast on the resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8) is 8 million: (a) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under a particular candidate director with “8 million shares”, you have used up all the votes to which you are entitled, which results in you having no votes for the other 7 candidates for directors. In this case, should you fill in the blanks under the relevant resolutions of the other 7 candidate directors with any number of shares (other than 0), all your votes on resolutions No. 9(1) to 9(8) will be invalid; or (b) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under candidate A with “6 million shares” and under candidate B for directors with “1 million shares”, the 7 million votes cast by you are valid and the remaining 1 million votes will be regarded as abstain votes.
-
(v) Where the “For” votes cast for a particular candidate for director are more than half of the total number of shares held by all shareholders attending (before cumulation) and where the “For” votes exceed the “Against” votes, the candidate in question will be considered to have won the votes. If the elected directors at the shareholders general meeting are less than directors to be elected, new rounds of voting are required to be held for election of the remaining directors until the number of directors to be elected is fulfilled.
-
(vi) When a new round of director election is held pursuant to (v) above, the calculation of cumulation should be based on the directors to be elected during the round of election in question.
-
(M) Attention: In respect of resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4) in relation to the election (or re-election, as the case may be) of independent non-executive directors, the method of cumulative voting will be adopted for these resolutions and the calculation of voting results. When you fill in the blanks entitled “Cumulative Voting”, please fill them in in accordance with the following instructions:
-
(i) In relation to resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4), for every share held by you, you will have the same number of voting rights which equals to the number of directors to be elected (or re-elected, as the case may be). For instance, if you are holding 1 million shares and 4 directors will be elected (or re-elected, as the case may be) at this general meeting, the aggregate number of votes which you will have will be 4 million (i.e. 1 million shares x 4 = 4 million voting shares) for resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4).
-
(ii) Please note that you may cast your votes on every candidate director provided that the total number of votes which you cast do not exceed the number of votes to which you are entitled; cast all your votes which represent the total number of shares held by you multiplied by the total number of directors to be elected on one candidate; or cast your votes which represent the total number ofamongstshareseachheld candidateby you multipliedfor directors,by thepleasetotal numberfill “�”ofindirectorsthe appropriateto be electedspaceonundercertain“For”candidates.or “Against”.If youOtherwise,cast your votespleaseequallyfill in the “For” and/or “Against” space with the number of votes you intend to cast on each of the 4 candidates. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the number of votes you have regarding the resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4) is 4 million. You may choose to cast every 1 million votes out of the total 4 million votes equally amongst the 4 candidates (For or Against) or to cast all your votes (4 million) on one candidate (For or Against); or to cast 2 million votes on candidate A director (For or Against), and cast the remaining 2 million votes on candidate B director (For or Against) without casting any votes on other candidates for directors etc.
-
(iii) When the total votes, represented by the shares held by you multiplied by the number of directors to be elected, are used up after voting for some of the candidates, you will have no votes remaining to be cast on other candidates. i.e., the total number of both of your “For” and “Against” votes cast on the 4 candidates shall not exceed the aggregate number of votes to which you are entitled.
-
(iv) Please note that when the total votes cast by you on some candidate directors exceeds the total votes to which you are entitled, all the votes cast will become invalid and be regarded as abstain votes; when the total votes cast by you for some candidate directors are less than the total votes to which you are entitled, the votes are valid and the remaining votes will be regarded as abstain votes. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the total number of your votes which may be cast on the resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4) is 4 million: (a) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under a particular candidate director with “4 million shares”, you have used up all the votes to which you are entitled, which results in you having no votes for the other 3 candidates for directors. In this case, should you fill in the blanks under the relevant resolutions of the other 3 candidate directors with any number of shares (other than 0), all your votes on resolutions No. 10(1) to 10(4) will be invalid; or (b) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under candidate A with “2 million shares” and under candidate B for directors with “1 million shares”, the 3 million votes cast by you are valid and the remaining 1 million votes will be regarded as abstain votes.
-
(v) Where the “For” votes cast for a particular candidate for director are more than half of the total number of shares held by all shareholders attending (before cumulation) and where the “For” votes exceed the “Against” votes, the candidate in question will be considered to have won the votes. If the elected directors at the shareholders general meeting are less than directors to be elected, new rounds of voting are required to be held for election of the remaining directors until the number of directors to be elected is fulfilled.
-
(vi) When a new round of director election is held pursuant to (v) above, the calculation of cumulation should be based on the directors to be elected during the round of election in question.
-
(N) Attention: In respect of resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2), in relation to the re-election of supervisors, the method of cumulative voting will be adopted for these resolutions and the calculation of voting results. When you fill in the blanks entitled “Cumulative Voting”, please fill them in accordance with the following instructions:
-
(i) In relation to resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2), for every share held by you, you will have the same number of voting rights which equals to the number of supervisors to be re-elected. For instance, if you are holding 1 million shares and 2 supervisors will be re-elected at this general meeting, the aggregate number of votes which you will have will be 2 million (i.e. 1 million shares x 2 = 2 million voting shares) for resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2).
-
(ii) Please note that you may cast your votes on every candidate supervisor provided that the total number of votes which you cast do not exceed the number of votes to which you are entitled; cast all your votes which represent the total number of shares held by you multiplied by the total number of supervisors to be elected on one candidate; or cast your votes which represent the total number of shares held by you multiplied by the total number of supervisors to be elected on certain candidates. If you cast your votes equally amongst each candidate for supervisors, please fill “�” in the appropriate place under “For” or “Against”. Otherwise, please fill in the “For” and/or “Against” space with the number of votes you intend to cast on each of the 2 candidates. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the number of your votes you have for the resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2) is 2 million. You may choose to cast every 1 million votes out of the total 2 million votes equally amongst the 2 candidates (For or Against) or to cast all your votes (2 million) on one candidate (For or Against), without casting any votes on the other candidate for supervisor.
-
(iii) When the total votes, represented by the shares held by you multiplied by the number of supervisors to be elected, are used up after voting for some of the candidates, you will have no votes remaining to be cast on other candidates. i.e., the total number of both of your “For” and “Against” votes cast on the 2 candidates shall not exceed the aggregate number of votes to which you are entitled.
-
(iv) Please note that when the total votes cast by you on some candidate supervisors exceeds the total votes to which you are entitled, all the votes cast will become invalid and be regarded as abstain votes; when the total votes cast by you for some candidate supervisors are less than the total votes to which you are entitled, the votes are valid and the remaining votes will be regarded as abstain votes. For example, if you are holding 1 million shares, the total number of your votes which may be cast on the resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2) is 2 million: (a) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under a particular candidate supervisor with “2 million shares”, you have used up all the votes to which you are entitled, which results in you having no votes for the other 1 candidate for supervisor. In this case, should you fill in the blanks under the relevant resolution for the other 1 candidate with any number of shares (other than 0), all your votes on resolutions No. 11(1) to 11(2) will be invalid; or (b) if you fill in the “For” (or “Against”) of “cumulative voting” space under candidate A with “1 million shares”, the 1 million votes cast by you are valid and the remaining 1 million votes will be regarded as abstain votes.
-
(v) Where the “For” votes cast for a particular candidate for supervisor are more than half of the total number of shares held by all shareholders attending (before cumulation) and where the “For” votes exceed the “Against” votes, the candidate in question will be considered to have won the votes. If the elected supervisors at the shareholders general meeting are less than supervisors to be elected, new rounds of voting are required to be held for election of the remaining supervisors until the number of supervisors to be elected is fulfilled.
-
(vi) When a new round of supervisor election is held pursuant to (v) above, the calculation of cumulation should be based on the supervisors to be elected during the round of election in question.
