CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.
Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Conditions for the Change of Company Name
The Change of Company Name is conditional upon the following conditions having been satisfied:
-
the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders at the EGM approving the Change of Company Name; and
-
the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands granting approval for the Change of Company Name.
Reasons for the Change of Company Name
The Board considers that the Change of Company Name will better reflect the Company’s future business development. The Board believes that the new English and Chinese names of the Company will improve the Company’s corporate image and position, whereas the Board considers to be in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Effects of the Change of Company Name
Assuming all the conditions set out in the paragraph headed “Conditions for the Change of Company Name” having been fulfilled, the Change of Company Name will take effect from the date of entry of the new name of the Company on the register maintained by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands. The Company will then carry out all necessary filing procedures with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands and the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.
The Change of Company Name will not affect any rights of the Shareholders or the Company’s daily business operation or its financial position. All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the current name of the Company will, upon the Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be good evidence of legal title to such Shares and will remain valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery purposes. There will not be any arrangement for the exchange of the existing share certificates for new share certificates bearing the new name of the Company. Upon the Change of Company Name becoming effective, all new share certificates will be issued only in the new name of the Company.
In addition, subject to confirmation by the Stock Exchange, the English and Chinese stock short names of the Company for trading in the securities on the Stock Exchange will also be changed after the Change of Company Name becoming effective. Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company in relation to the effective date of the Change of Company Name and details of the change of the English and Chinese stock short names of the Company.
