LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Conditions of the Proposed Change of Company Name

The Proposed Change of Company Name will be subject to the following conditions:

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

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

The relevant filings with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands will be made after the passing of the special resolution at the EGM. Subject to 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 the Cayman Islands enters the new English name and Chinese name of the Company on the register in place of the existing English name and Chinese name of the Company. Thereafter, the Company will carry out any necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.

Reasons for the Proposed Change of Company Name

The Board considers that the Proposed Change of Company Name will symbolise a new start and refresh the corporate image of the Company. As such, the Board believes that the Proposed Change of Company Name is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Effects of the Proposed Change of Company Name

The Proposed Change of Company Name will not affect any of the rights of the existing Shareholders. All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the current English name and Chinese name of the Company will, after the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be evidence of title to the Shares and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery for the same number of shares in the new English name and Chinese name of the Company. There will not be any arrangement for free exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates printed in the new English name and Chinese name of the Company. Upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, any new share certificates will be issued in the new English name and Chinese name of the Company.

In addition, subject to the confirmation by the Stock Exchange, the stock short name of the Company for trading in the shares of the Company on the Stock Exchange will also be changed after the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective. Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company in relation to the effective date of the Proposed Change of Company Name and details of the change of the stock short name of the Company.
