(3) NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING

1. INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 24 August 2021 regarding the Proposed Change of Company Name and the Proposed Amendments to the Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws of the Company (the “ Announcement ”). Unless otherwise stated, capitalised terms used in this Circular shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Announcement.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The primary purposes of this Circular are to provide you with details regarding the Proposed Change of Company Name and the Proposed Amendments and the related special resolutions to be proposed at the SGM, together with the notice convening the SGM.

2. PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Board proposes to change the English name of the Company from “Sparkle Roll Group Limited” to “New Sparkle Roll International Group Limited” and to adopt a secondary name of the Company in Chinese of “新耀萊國際集團有限公司” (the “ Proposed Change of Company Name ”).

The Board is of the view that the Proposed Change of Company Name will help to refresh the Company’s corporate image and identity which will better reflect the current status of the Company and benefit further international business development of the Company.

The Proposed Change of Company Name is subject to fulfillment of the following conditions:

  • (1) the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM approving the Proposed Change of Company Name; and

  • (2) the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda having approved the Proposed Change of Company Name.

Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions set out above, the Proposed Change of Company Name will take effect from the date on which the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda registers the new English name in place of the existing English name of the Company and registers the secondary name of the Company as set out in the certificate of incorporation on change of name and the certificate of secondary name to be issued by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda respectively. The Company will then carry out all necessary registration and filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong pursuant to Part 16 of the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622 of the laws of Hong Kong).

The Proposed Change of Company Name will not affect any rights of the existing holders of the Shares nor the Company’s daily business operation and its financial position. All the existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the existing name of the Company will, upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be evidence of title to such Shares and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery of such Shares. There will not be any arrangement for free exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates bearing the New Names. Upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, all new share certificates of the Company will only be issued in the New Names.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Subject to the confirmation by the Stock Exchange, the English and Chinese stock short names for trading of the Shares on the Stock Exchange will also be changed after the Proposed Change of Company Name becomes effective.

A special resolution will be proposed at the SGM to, among other things, consider and, if thought fit, approve the Proposed Change of Company Name.

3. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION AND BYE-LAWS

In view of the Proposed Change of Company Name, the Board also proposes to amend (the “ Proposed Amendments ”) the Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws to reflect the Proposed Change of Company Name by replacing all references to “Sparkle Roll Group Limited” with “New Sparkle Roll International Group Limited(新耀萊國際集團有限公司)” in the Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws. The Proposed Amendments are subject to the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM and shall take effect upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective.

4. THE SGM

A notice of the SGM is set out from pages 5 to 8 of this circular. The SGM will be held at Regus Conference Centre, 35/F, Central Plaza, 18 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong on Tuesday, 21 September 2021 at 5:00 p.m. (or such time immediately following the conclusion (or adjournment) of the annual general meeting of the Company to be held on the same day and at the same place) for the purpose of considering, and if thought fit, the passing of the special resolutions approving the Proposed Change of Company Name and the Proposed Amendments.

In compliance with the Listing Rules, the resolutions will be voted by way of poll at the SGM. To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Shareholders has direct or indirect material interest in the Proposed Change of Company Name and the Proposed Amendments and accordingly, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting on the special resolutions to be proposed at the SGM.

A form of proxy for use at the SGM is enclosed with this circular. Whether or not you are able to attend the SGM, you are requested to complete the accompanying form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the Company’s branch share registrar and transfer office in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the SGM or any adjournment thereof.
