PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Board proposes to (i) change the English name of the Company from ‘‘China Minsheng DIT Group Limited’’ to ‘‘DIT Group Limited’’ and (ii) change the secondary name of the Company in Chinese from ‘‘中民築友智造科技集團有限公司’’ to ‘‘築友智造科技集團 ’’ 有限公司 .
Conditions of the Change of Company Name
The Change of Company Name is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:
-
(i) the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders to approve the Change of Company Name at the SGM; and
-
(ii) the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda approving the Change of Company Name and entering the new English name of the Company and the new secondary name of the Company in Chinese on the register of companies maintained by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda.
Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set out above, the Change of Company Name will take effect from the date on which the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda enters the new English name of the Company and the new secondary name of the Company in Chinese on the register of companies maintained by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. Upon the Change of Company Name becoming effective, the Company will comply with all necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.
Reasons for the Change of Company Name
Following the change in the controlling shareholder of the Company in July 2019, the Board considers that the Change of Company Name will symbolise a new start and reflect the current status of the Group and its direction of future development. The Board believes that the Change of Company Name will provide the Company with a new corporate image and identity which will benefit the Company’s future business development and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Effects of the Change of Company Name
The Change of Company Name will not affect any rights of the Shareholders or the Company’s daily business operation or its financial position.
