LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2. PROPOSAL FOR THE CHANGE OF NAME

Reasons for the Change of Name

The principal business of the Group is the manufacturing and trading of electronic components, mainly Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors (or ‘‘E-Caps’’). In recent years, the Group changed its strategic directions by focusing more on the research and development of various kinds of innovative components for applications in the high technology, energy savings and energy storage sectors. Details of recent developments of the Group are summarised as follows:

  • (a) in 2006, the Group has started to produce aluminum foils (an essential raw material for the production of E-Caps). Production of aluminum foils is an advanced electro-chemical process;

  • (b) in 2006, the Group launched a brand new type of capacitors known as Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Capacitors (or ‘‘Polymer Caps’’). This is a kind of innovative component used in high technology equipment such as computer motherboards, graphic cards, game consoles and telecommunication products;

  • (c) in 2009, the Group launched another type of component known as Electric Double Layer Capacitors (‘‘EDLC’’ or commonly known as ‘‘Super-Caps’’). This component expanded the application of capacitors to act as energy storage devices. These EDLCs will be used in new energy, energy savings and energy storage devices; and

  • (d) other new breeds of components will be launched to the market in the near future.

The Board is of the view that the proposed Change of Name will better describe the scope of business of the Group and its future development directions.

3. EFFECT ON THE CHANGE OF NAME

Upon the Change of Name becoming effective, all existing share certificates in issue bearing the current name of ‘‘Man Yue International Holdings Limited’’ will continue to be evidence of title to the Shares of the Company and valid for trading, settlement and registration purposes and the rights of the Shareholders of the Company will not be affected as a result of the Change of Name. There will not be any arrangement for the exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates bearing the new names of the Company. Should the Change of Name become effective, any issue of share certificates thereafter will be in the new names and the securities of the Company will be traded on the Stock Exchange in the new names.

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Change of Name will take effect from the date on which the new Company’s names are entered into the register maintained by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. The Company will further carry out the necessary filing procedures with the Registrar of Companies in Hong Kong.

Besides, subject to the confirmation of the Stock Exchange, the English and Chinese stock short names for trading in the Shares of the Company on the Stock Exchange will also be changed after the Change of Name becoming effective.

The Company will make further announcements on the outcome of the Special General Meeting and the Change of Name and the Company’s stock short names being effective.

4. SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING

Notice of the Special General Meeting containing the special resolution to be proposed for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve the proposed Change of Name is set out on pages 7 to 8 of this circular.

A form of proxy for use at the Special General Meeting is also enclosed with this circular.
