Notes:

  • (1) Any shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the AGM is entitled to appoint one proxy (or, if he holds two or more shares, more than one proxy) to attend and vote instead of him. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

  • (2) To be valid, a completed and signed form of proxy (together with a power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed or a notarially certified copy of such power or authority) must be lodged at the principal office of the Company at 26th Floor, Dah Sing Financial Centre, 108 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the AGM or any adjournment thereof.

  • (3) For the purpose of ascertaining the shareholders’ entitlements to attend and vote at the AGM, the register of members of the Company will be closed from 29 May 2013 (Wednesday) to 31 May 2013 (Friday), both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of shares shall be effected. All duly completed and stamped transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged for registration with the Company’s Branch Share Registrars in Hong Kong, Tricor Standard Limited of 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong not later than 4:30 p.m. on 28 May 2013 (Tuesday).

  • (4) In accordance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange, the resolutions set out in this notice and other resolutions properly put to the AGM will be voted by way of a poll to be demanded by the chairman of the AGM.

  • (5) Concerning Resolution No. 2 above, for the purpose of ascertaining the shareholders’ entitlements to the proposed final dividend, the register of members of the Company will be closed from 7 June 2013 (Friday) to 11 June 2013 (Tuesday), both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of shares shall be effected. All duly completed and stamped transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged for registration with the Company’s Branch Share Registrars in Hong Kong, Tricor Standard Limited of 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong not later than 4:30 p.m. on 6 June 2013 (Thursday). Subject to the passing of Resolution No. 2 at the AGM, the final dividend will be payable on Wednesday, 19 June 2013.

  • (6) Concerning Resolution Nos. 6(A) and 6(B) above, two separate Ordinary Resolutions granting mandates to the Directors to the same effect were passed at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 31 May 2012. Since then, no Shares have been issued or repurchased pursuant to the said respective mandates, both of which will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM unless they are renewed. While the Directors do not have any present intention to issue any new Shares or repurchase any existing Shares (other than pursuant to item (iii) contained in paragraph (b) of the proposed Resolution No. 6(A)), they believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and the shareholders as a whole to have a general authority from shareholders to enable them to issue and repurchase Shares at appropriate times. Shareholders’ attention is also drawn to the explanatory statement on the proposed repurchase mandate contained in Appendix II to the circular of the Company dated 26 April 2013.

At the date of this announcement, the board of directors of the Company comprises the following members:

Messrs. Lu Wing Chi (Chairman and Managing Director), Lu Wing Yuk, Andrew, Lincoln Lu and Lambert Lu

Executive Directors: Non-executive Director: Mr. Lam Sing Tai

Independent Non-executive Messrs. Walujo Santoso, Wally, Leung Hok Lim and Directors: Chung Pui Lam
