To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSED APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

AND
NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the proposed appointment of auditor of the Company to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution, and to give you the notice of the EGM.

2. PROPOSED APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

Reference is made to the announcements of the Company dated 10 December 2024 whereby the Board announced the Company has reached a mutual understanding with KPMG and that KPMG has resigned as auditor of the Company with effect from 10 December 2024. For the purpose of maintaining good corporate governance, the Board is of the view that the Company's auditor should be considered for


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

rotation after an appropriate period of time. As KPMG has been the auditor of the Company for 8 consecutive financial periods, the Board discussed the rotation plan with KPMG who agreed to resign as the auditor of the Company.

KPMG has confirmed in its letter of resignation, that there are no circumstances connected with its resignation which it considers should be brought to the notice of the members or the creditors of the Company. The Board is not aware of any disagreements between the Company and KPMG, or other matters save as disclosed above in relation to the resignation of KPMG that need to be brought to the attention of the Shareholders. The Board and the audit committee of the Company expect that the change of auditor of the Company will not have any material impact on the annual audit of the Group for the year ending 31 December 2024.

The Board, with the recommendation of the Audit Committee, has resolved to propose to appoint Deloitte as the new auditor of the Company to fill the vacancy following the resignation of KPMG and to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company. The proposed appointment of Deloitte as the new auditor of the Company will be subject to (i) the appointment acceptance assessment from Deloitte; and (ii) to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company ("EGM") for the Shareholders to, among other things, consider, and if thought fit, approve the Proposed Appointment.

The Audit Committee has considered a number of factors in assessing the appointment of Deloitte as the new auditor of the Company, including but not limited to (i) the audit plan of Deloitte; (ii) its experience and technical competence in handling audit works for companies listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited; (iii) its independence and objectivity; (iv) its proposed audit fee; (v) its resources and capabilities; and (vi) the guidelines issued by the Accounting and Financial Reporting Council.

Based on the above, the Board and the Audit Committee have assessed and considered that: (i) Deloitte is independent, qualified and suitable to act as the new auditor of the Company; (ii) by reference to the scale of the Group's business operations and assets, the audit fee agreed with Deloitte is commensurate with the scope of audit work required by the Group; and (iii) the appointment of Deloitte will maintain the quality of the audits and is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. THE EGM

A notice convening the EGM is set out on pages 5 to 6 of this circular at which an Ordinary Resolution will be proposed to the Appointment of Auditor.

A proxy form for use at the EGM is enclosed herewith and is also published on the website of the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (http://www.hkexnews.hk) and the website of the Company (http://www.swhyhk.com). Whether or not you are able to attend the EGM, you are advised to complete and return the accompanying proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon to the Company's Share Registrar, Tricor Tengis Limited, at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong, as soon as possible but in any event not later than 48 hours excluding Sunday before the time appointed for holding of the EGM (i.e. 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, 28 December 2024) or any adjournment thereof (as the case may be). Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the EGM or any adjourned meeting thereof (as the case may be) should you so wish.

4. VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, the resolution sets out in the notice of the EGM shall be decided by poll.
