By Order of the Board Crocodile Garments Limited Kwok Siu Man Company Secretary

Hong Kong, 16 November 2012

Notes:

1. A member of the Company (“ Member ”) entitled to attend and vote at the AGM convened by the above notice (“ Notice ”) (or its adjourned meeting) is entitled to appoint one (or, if he/she/it holds two or more Shares, more than one) proxy to attend and, on a poll, vote on his/her/its behalf in accordance with the articles of association of the Company (“ Articles of Association ”). A proxy need not be a Member.

2. A form of proxy for use at the AGM is enclosed with this Notice.

3. To be valid, a 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 share registrars of the Company (“ Registrars ”), Tricor Tengis Limited, at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong, not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the AGM or its adjourned meeting (as the case may be) and in default, the form of proxy will not be treated as valid. Completion and return of the form of proxy shall not preclude Members from attending in person and voting at the AGM or at its adjourned meeting should they so wish. In that event, the said form(s) of proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.

The contact phone number of the Registrars is (852) 2980 1333.

4. To ascertain the entitlements to attend and vote at the AGM, Members must lodge the relevant transfer document(s) and share certificate(s) at the office of the Registrars not later than 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, 12 December 2012 for registration.

5. Where there are joint registered holders of any Share, any one of such joint holders may attend and vote at the AGM or its adjourned meeting (as the case may be), either in person or by proxy, in respect of such Shares as if he/she/it were solely entitled thereto. However, should more than one of such joint holders be present at the AGM or its adjourned meeting (as the case may be), the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of other joint holder(s), and for this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of Members in respect of the joint holding.

6. Concerning agenda item 2 of this Notice,

  • (i) in accordance with Article 100 of the Articles of Association, Ms. Lam Wai Shan, Vanessa will retire from office as a Director by rotation at the AGM and, being eligible, she offers herself for re-election; and

  • (ii) in accordance with Rule 13.74 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“ Listing Rules ”), details of the aforesaid Director are set out in the section headed “Biographical Details of Directors” of the Report of the Directors of the 2011-2012 Annual Report of the Company.

7. Concerning agenda item 3 of this Notice, the Board (which concurs with the Audit Committee of the Company) has recommended that subject to the approval of the Members at the AGM, SHINEWING (HK) CPA Limited will be re-appointed independent auditor of the Company for the year ending 31 July 2013 (“ Year 2013 ”). Members should note that in practice, independent auditor’s remuneration for Year 2013 cannot be fixed at the AGM because such remuneration varies by reference to the scope and extent of audit and other works which the independent auditor is being called upon to undertake in any given year. To enable the Company to charge the amount of such auditor’s remuneration as operating expenses for Year 2013, Members’ approval to delegate the authority to the Board to fix the independent auditor’s remuneration for Year 2013 is required, and is hereby sought, at the AGM.

8. The proposed Ordinary Resolution under agenda item 4(A) of this Notice relates to the granting of a general mandate to the Directors to issue new Shares of up to a maximum of 20% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing the said Resolution. The Company has no immediate plan to issue any new Shares under the general mandate.

9. Concerning agenda item 4(B) of this Notice, as at the date of this Notice, the authorised share capital of the Company was HK$300,000,000.00 divided into 1,200,000,000 Shares. To provide for greater flexibility and accommodate future expansion and growth of the Company, a resolution will be proposed at the AGM to consider and, if thought fit, approve the increase in the authorised share capital of the Company from HK$300,000,000.00 to HK$425,000,000.00 by the creation of additional 500,000,000 Shares. The additional new Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Shares. The Directors have no present intention to allot and issue such new Shares.

10. In compliance with Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, voting on all resolutions proposed in this Notice will be decided by way of a poll.

11. If a tropical cyclone warning signal No. 8 or above is expected to be hoisted or a black rainstorm warning signal is expected to be in force at any time between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on the date of the AGM, the AGM will be postponed and Members will be informed of the date, time and venue of the postponed AGM by a supplementary notice posted on the respective websites of the Company and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited.

If a tropical cyclone warning signal No. 8 or above or a black rainstorm warning signal is cancelled at or before 9:00 a.m. on the date of the AGM and where conditions permit, the AGM will be held as scheduled.

The AGM will be held as scheduled when an amber or red rainstorm warning signal is in force.

After considering their own situations, Members should decide whether they would attend the AGM under a bad weather condition and if they do so, they are advised to exercise care and caution.

As at the date of this announcement, the Board comprises five Executive Directors, namely Dr. Lam Kin Ming (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer), Ms. Lam Wai Shan, Vanessa (Deputy Chief Executive Officer), Dr. Lam Kin Ngok, Peter, Mr. Lam Kin Hong, Matthew and Mr. Wan Yee Hwa, Edward; one Non-executive Director, namely Ms. Lam Suk Ying, Diana; and three Independent Non-executive Directors, namely Messrs.
