CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration.
Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding an ordinary resolution to be proposed at the EGM and to give you notice of the EGM. The resolution to be proposed at the EGM will be for the purpose of approving the change of auditor of the Company.

– 3 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Moore has resigned as auditor of the Company with effect from 4 November 2022 as the Company could not reach a consensus with Moore on the audit fee for the financial year ending 31 December 2022. With the recommendation from the Audit Committee, the Board proposes to appoint Mazars as the auditor of the Company and to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company. Pursuant to the Articles of Association, the proposed appointment of Mazars as the auditor of the Company will be subject to approval by the Shareholders at the EGM.
The Board further confirmed that Moore has not yet commenced any audit work on the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ending 31 December 2022. The Board believes that the change of auditor will not have any impact on the annual audit of the Company for the year ending 31 December 2022.
In this connection, Moore has confirmed in writing that there are no matters in connection with its resignation that need to be brought to the attention of the Shareholders. The Board and the Audit Committee confirm that there are no matters in respect of the change of auditor that need to be brought to the attention of the Shareholders.
NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
At the EGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to approve the change of auditor of the Company. The notice of the EGM is set out on pages 6 to 7 of this circular.
For determining the eligibility to attend and vote at the EGM, the register of members of the Company will be closed from Tuesday, 6 December 2022 to Friday, 9 December 2022, both dates inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares could be registered for determination of entitlement of the Shareholders to attend and vote at the EGM. In order to qualify for attending and voting in the EGM, all transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company’s Hong Kong branch share registrar, Tricor Investor Services Limited at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong no later than 4:30 p.m. on Monday, 5 December 2022.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
VOTING BY WAY OF POLL
Pursuant to Rule 17.47(4) of the GEM Listing Rules, any vote of shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. The chairperson of the meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the EGM pursuant to Article 72 of the Articles of Association and the Company will announce the results of the poll in the manner prescribed under Rule 17.47(5) of the GEM Listing Rules.
To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting on the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
A proxy form for use at the EGM is enclosed herein. Whether or not you intend to attend the EGM, you are requested to complete the proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office of the Company, Tricor Investor Services Limited, at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the EGM or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting at the EGM, or any adjourned meeting, should you so wish.
RECOMMENDATION
The Directors believe that the proposed change of auditor is in the best interests of the Company as well as the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors recommend that all the Shareholders should vote in favour of the ordinary resolution approving the proposed change of auditor at the EGM.
