  2. Voting at the EGM will be taken by poll as required under the Listing Rules.

  3. For determining the entitlement of the Shareholders to attend and vote at the EGM, the register of members of the Company will be closed from Tuesday, 28 January 2025 to Thursday, 6 February 2025 (both days inclusive) during which period no transfer of the Shares will be registered. In order to qualify for entitlement to attend and vote at the EGM, all properly completed transfer forms accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited at 17/F., Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong for registration no later than 4:30 p.m. on Monday, 27 January 2025.

  4. Any shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the EGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend, speak and vote instead of him/her at the EGM (or at any adjournment of it). A member who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint more than one proxy to represent him/her and vote on his/her behalf at the EGM of the Company. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

  5. 2 -


  1. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or of his/her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under its seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorised to sign the same. In the case of an instrument of proxy purporting to be signed on behalf of a corporation by an officer thereof it shall be assumed, unless the contrary appears, that such officer was duly authorised to sign such instrument of proxy on behalf of the corporation without further evidence of the facts.

  2. In order to be valid, the form of proxy, together with the power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such power of attorney or authority, must be lodged with the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited at 17/F., Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong for registration not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the EGM.

  3. Completion and return of the form of proxy shall not preclude a member of the Company from attending the EGM and voting in person at the EGM or any adjournment thereof if he/she/it so desires. If a member of the Company attends the EGM after having deposited the form of proxy, his/her/its form of proxy will be deemed revoked.

  4. Where there are joint registered holders of any Share, any one of such persons may vote at any meeting, either personally or by proxy, in respect of such share as if he/she/it were solely entitled thereto; but if more than one of such joint holders be present at any meeting personally or by proxy, then one of the said persons so present being the most, or as the case may be, the more senior shall alone be entitled to vote in respect of the relevant joint holding and, for this purpose, seniority shall be determined by reference to the order in which the names of the joint holder stand on the register in respect of the relevant joint holding.

  5. References to time and dates in this notice are to Hong Kong time and dates.

  6. The English text of this notice shall prevail over the Chinese text in case of inconsistency.

  7. If a black rainstorm warning signal, a tropical cyclone warning signal no. 8 or above or "extreme conditions" caused by super typhoons is in force at or at any time after 8:00 a.m. on the date of the meeting, the meeting will be postponed. The Company will publish an announcement on the website of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk) and the Company's website (www.kntholdings.com) to notify members of the date, time and place of the rescheduled meeting.
