A member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the meeting convened by this notice is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote in his stead.

In order for it to be valid, the form of proxy, accompanied by the power of attorney (if applicable) or other authority (if any) under which it is signed or a certified copy of that power or authority, must be deposited with the Company Secretary at the Company’s principal place of business in Hong Kong at Suite 1401, Henley Building, 5 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting or its adjourned meeting.
-
In the case of joint registered holders, 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 the other joint holder(s). For this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register of Members of the Company in respect of such joint holding.
-
In the case of a conflict between the English text of this notice and its Chinese translation, the English text will prevail.
