The purpose of this circular is to provide you with the notice of Annual General Meeting and information in relation to, among others, the following resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting: (i) the granting to the Directors of the Issue Mandate, the Buyback Mandate and the Extension of Issue Mandate, (ii) the re-election of the retiring Directors, (iii) the re-appointment of auditor; and (iv) the Proposed Grant of RSUs.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
2. GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE NEW SHARES AND EXTENSION OF ISSUE MANDATE
In order to provide for greater flexibility for the Company to allot, issue or otherwise deal with new Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares), an ordinary resolution numbered 4(A) will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to grant to the Directors the Issue Mandate to exercise the powers of the Company to allot, issue or otherwise deal with new Shares (including any sale or transfer of treasury Shares) not exceeding 20% of the number of the issued Shares (excluding any treasury Shares) as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution in relation to the Issue Mandate.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 459,891,323 Shares with a par value of HK$0.0001 each and the Company did not hold any treasury Shares. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(A) granting the Issue Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to allot, issue or otherwise deal with (including any sale or transfer out of the treasury) a maximum of 91,978,264 Shares pursuant to the Issue Mandate.
In addition, subject to a separate approval of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(C), the number of Shares bought back by the Company under the Buyback Mandate proposed to be granted pursuant to the ordinary resolution numbered 4(B) will also be added to extend the 20% limit of the Issue Mandate as mentioned in the ordinary resolution numbered 4(A).
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company does not have any concrete plan to issue new Shares (including to sell or transfer any treasury shares out of treasury) under the Issue Mandate and will exercise the power to issue new Shares where the issuance is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole after considering the market conditions.
3. GENERAL MANDATE TO BUY BACK SHARES
In addition, an ordinary resolution numbered 4(B) will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the Buyback Mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to buy back Shares (whether held in treasury or cancelled) representing up to 10% of the number of the issued Shares (excluding any treasury Shares) as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution in relation to the Buyback Mandate. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution numbered 4(B) granting the Buyback Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to buy back a maximum of 45,989,132 Shares pursuant to the Buyback Mandate.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has no present intention to buy back any Shares under the Buyback Mandate and would only exercise the power to buy back Shares in circumstances where the buyback would be in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules in connection with the Buyback Mandate is set out in Appendix I to this circular. This explanatory statement contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting.
4. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF THE RETIRING DIRECTORS
In accordance with Article 26.4 of the Articles, at every annual general meeting of the Company one-third of the Directors for the time being (or, if their number is not three or multiple of three, then the number nearest to, but not less than, one-third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that every Director (including those appointed for a specific term) shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. Any Director required to stand for re-election pursuant to Article 26.3 shall not be taken into account in determining the number of Directors and which Directors are to retire by rotation. A retiring Director shall retain office until the close of the meeting at which such Director retires and shall be eligible for re-election at such meeting.
Accordingly, Ms. Tai Ho Yan Olive (“Ms. Tai”) and Mr. Andrew Chow Heng Cheong (“Mr. Chow”) will retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election.
Pursuant to Article 26.3 of the Articles, the Directors may appoint any person to be a Director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional Director provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number fixed by or in accordance with the Articles as the maximum number of Directors. Any Director so appointed shall hold office only until the first annual general meeting of the Company after such Director’s appointment and shall then be eligible for re-election at that meeting. No Director shall be required to retire under Article 26.3.
The Nomination Committee has reviewed the structure and composition of the Board, the confirmations and disclosures given by the Directors, the qualifications, skills and experience, time commitment and contribution of the Directors with reference to the nomination principles and criteria set out in the Company’s nomination policy, the Company’s board diversity policy and the Company’s corporate strategy. The Nomination Committee has recommended to the Board on re-election of all the above-mentioned Directors.
- 7 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
On the re-election of Ms. Tai and Mr. Chow the Nomination Committee considered, and the Board shared the same views, that at all times during their period of directorship with the Company, they have properly discharged their duties and responsibilities, and their professional knowledge and general business acumen will continue to generate significant contribution to the Board, the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
In this regard, the Board is satisfied that Ms. Tai and Mr. Chow are persons of integrity and believes that their re-election and continued appointment will allow the Board as well as the Company to continuously benefit from the sharing of their invaluable experience, contribution and participation.
In addition, Mr. Chow has made an annual confirmation of independence pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. During his appointment, he has demonstrated his ability to provide an independent view to the Company's matters. The Nomination Committee and the Board are of the view that he is able to continue to fulfil his role as independent non-executive Director and therefore propose to the Shareholders for his re-election at the Annual General Meeting.
Details of the above retiring Directors who are standing for re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix II to this circular in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Listing Rules.
5. PROPOSED RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR
The consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2025 were audited by Messrs. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu whose term of office will expire upon the Annual General Meeting.
The Board proposes to re-appoint Messrs. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu as the auditor of the Company and to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, and to authorise the Board to fix the remuneration of the auditor.
The audit committee of the Company has recommended to the Board (which in turn endorsed the view) that, subject to the Shareholders' approval at the coming Annual General Meeting, Messrs. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu be re-appointed as the auditor of the Company.
The estimated audit fee payable to Messrs. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu for the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the financial year ending 31 December 2026 is expected to be approximately SGD650,000 (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses).
- 8 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The estimated audit fee has been determined after due consideration and arm's length negotiations between the Company and Messrs. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, taking into account, among other things, the size, nature and complexity of the Group's business operations (covering multiple jurisdictions including Hong Kong and various cities in Southeast Asia), the expected scope of the audit (including group-level audit and subsidiary-level audit and covering the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards), the audit timetable, and the level and mix of professional staff to be deployed in various jurisdictions. The estimated audit fee also assumes that there will be no material change in the Group's operations, accounting policies or regulatory environment during the financial year, and that the Company will provide timely and adequate assistance and information as reasonably required for the purposes of the audit.

HK$2.730
Vesting period of the RSUs:
The RSUs shall vest in two tranches as follows:
| % of RSUs granted | Date of vesting |
|---|---|
| 50% | June 30, 2026, being the date of the AGM |
| 50% | June 30, 2027, being the date falling on the first anniversary of the date of the AGM |
Vesting conditions:
Vesting of the RSUs is subject to the following conditions:
- The relevant grantee remains eligible under the Share Award Scheme and as deemed by the Board.
- The relevant grantee complies with all of his/her contractual obligations with the Company (including employment contract), as well as all of the Company's internal policies, and the relevant grantee has not breached any laws or regulations.

- 10 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
If circumstances occur which, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, justify a reduction in respect of the Shares that have already been exercised and transferred then the Board may in its discretion determine (acting fairly and reasonably) that the grantee should repay to the Company (whether by redemption or repurchase of relevant Shares, payment of cash proceeds or deductions from or set offs against any amounts owed to the grantee by the relevant member of the Group) an amount equal to the benefit, calculated on an after-tax basis, that the grantee received, provided that the Board may, at its discretion, determine that a lesser amount should be repaid.
The circumstances in which the Board may consider that it is appropriate to exercise its discretion, may, without limitation, include the following:
(i) a material misstatement or restatement in the audited financial accounts of any member of the Group (other than as a result of a change in accounting practice);
(ii) the negligence, fraud or serious misconduct of a grantee which results in or is reasonably likely to result in (a) significant reputational damage to any member of the Group (or to a relevant business unit of any member of the Group); (b) a material adverse effect on the financial position of any member of the Group (or to a relevant business unit of any member of the Group); or (c) a material adverse effect on the business opportunities and prospects for sustained performance or profitability of any member of the Group (or to a relevant business unit of any member of the Group); or
(iii) the grantee being employed or engaged by any member of the Group (or the relevant unit of any member of the Group) that suffers (a) significant reputational damage; (b) a material adverse effect on its financial position; or (c) a material adverse effect on its business opportunities and prospects for sustained performance or profitability.
- 11 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Performance targets:
There are no performance targets attached to the RSUs granted to the grantees.
In determining the grant of RSUs, the Board and the Remuneration Committee have considered the roles and relationships of the grantees within the Group. The purpose of the Share Award Scheme is to, among other things, attract skilled and experienced personnel, to incentivise them to remain with or to continue to provide their services to the Group and to motivate them to strive for and to contribute to the future development and expansion of the Group by providing them with the opportunity to acquire Shares in the Company and therefore aligning their interests with the Group. The value of the RSUs is linked to the future price of the Shares, motivating grantees to contribute to the Company's development. Additionally, the vesting period is structured to foster long-term commitment to the Group. The Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai constitutes a part of her remuneration package which was determined by the Remuneration Committee after taking into account her past performance and contributions to the Group. The Remuneration Committee conducted a review of Ms. Tai's past performance, leadership stability, and contributions to the Group's operational growth in the past. In view of the above, the Board and the Remuneration Committee considered that the grant of RSUs aligned with the purpose of the Share Award Scheme, serving as a tool to motivate Ms. Tai and allow her to benefit from the improvement of the share performance of the Company. Accordingly, no additional performance target was imposed. The Board and the Remuneration Committee considered that the Proposed Grant of RSUs without performance target is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
Financial assistance arrangements:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The RSUs
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Award Scheme, the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine whether all or any of the Shares underlying any Award granted or to be granted under the Share Award Scheme shall be satisfied upon vesting by the allotment and issue or transfer of Shares or by a cash payment. Any such determination may be made on a case-by-case basis or generally at any time prior to the vesting date of the Award in question, and the Board shall notify the relevant Grantees of such determination.
A Grantee shall have no rights in respect of any Shares underlying the Awards granted until such Shares have been allotted and issued or transferred to the Grantee, including but not limited to voting rights and any right to dividends or distributions in respect of such Shares subject to an Award. Subject to the foregoing, the Shares to be allotted and issued or transferred upon the vesting or exercise of the Awards shall be subject to all the provisions of the memorandum and articles of association of the Company for the time being in force and shall rank pari passu in all respects with, and shall have the same voting, dividend, transfer and other rights (including those rights arising on the liquidation or winding-up of the Company) as, the existing fully paid Shares in issue on the date on which those Shares are allotted and issued or transferred pursuant to the vesting or exercise of the Awards and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, shall entitle the holders to participate in all dividends or other distributions paid or made on or after the date on which Shares are allotted and issued, or transferred, other than any dividends or distributions previously declared or recommended or resolved to be paid or made if the record date thereof shall be before the date on which the Shares are allotted and issued or transferred.
The number of Shares under the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai, being 3,840,000 Shares in aggregate, represent approximately $0.83\%$ of the total issued Shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date.
The Scheme Mandate Limit, being the total number of new Shares which may be allotted and issued under the Share Award Scheme and other share schemes of the Company, is originally 43,415,650 Shares and, prior to the Proposed Grant of RSUs, 30,058,065 Shares, representing $9.44\%$ and $6.54\%$ of the Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares) as at the Latest Practicable Date.
Assuming that all the abovementioned Awards to Ms. Tai will be satisfied by the allotment and issue of Shares, the Scheme Mandate Limit will be utilised as to 3,840,000 Shares, and the number of Shares available for future grant under the Share Award Scheme under the current Scheme Mandate Limit will be 26,218,065 Shares. The number of Shares available for future grant to service providers under the service provider sublimit (within the scheme mandate limit) remains 17,366,260.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Reasons for the Proposed Grant of RSUs
The Company is a Singapore-based big data, AI & digital solutions company listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, recognised for completing the first-ever de-SPAC transaction in Hong Kong. Synagistics benefits from strong industry backing, enabling it to drive innovation and expand its influence in Asia's rapidly evolving digital ecosystem. Synagistics is recognised as one of the top digital solutions provider in Southeast Asia and has provided its data-driven digital commerce platform Synagie to over 600 enterprises and renowned brands in the Southeast Asian market. Synagistics is also one of the few digital platform companies in Asia to achieve carbon neutrality and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. With the launch of Geene in early March 2025, Synagistics has firmly established itself as a frontrunner in the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence, solidifying its position as a key leader in the global AI ecosystem and accelerating enterprise AI adoption and innovation. Synagistics continues to expand its footprint across multiple markets including the Greater China region while championing environmental responsibility and AI transformation.
The purpose of the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai is (i) serve as a recognition and appreciation of Ms. Tai's dedication, significant efforts and contribution to the Group, who has played a crucial role in leading the Group to achieve corporate goals and development for the year ended December 31, 2025, and (ii) to incentivize Ms. Tai to take on greater responsibilities such as strengthening its digital commerce ecosystem through technology innovation, strategic partnerships, M&A opportunities and disciplined operational execution following the retirement of the Chairman in the third quarter of 2026 and to motivate her to strive for and to contribute to the continued development and growth of the Group by providing her with the opportunity to acquire further Shares in the Company and therefore aligning her interests with the Group.
To serve this purpose, the RSUs shall vest in equal instalments, initially on the date of the AGM, and subsequently on June 30, 2027, being the date falling on the first anniversary of the date of AGM, provided that the vesting conditions remain satisfied. The immediate vesting of the first portion of the RSUs recognizes the historical contributions of Ms. Tai to the Group, while the second portion of the RSUs serves to motivate and incentivize Ms. Tai to drive the Group's strategic expansion and enhance long-term shareholder value.
The RSUs granted have a mixed vesting schedule where the vesting period for a portion of the RSUs granted to Ms. Tai is shorter than 12 months and the RSUs vest evenly over a period of one year. Such arrangement is specifically permitted by the terms of the Share Award Scheme and Rule 17.03F of the Listing Rules. 50% of the RSUs vested is for Ms. Tai's past performance and her contribution to the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025 while the remaining 50% to be vested 1 year later is for the greater roles and responsibilities to be undertaken in the next year and to motivate her to continue growing the Company.
- 14 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The Remuneration Committee and the Board are of the view that the vesting arrangement (including a vesting period of less than 12 months for part of the RSUs granted) is appropriate considering that the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai can serve as a recognition of the her past contribution to the Group, and can also motivate and incentivize her to continuously contribute to the operation, development and strategic growth of the Group. The vesting period of less than 12 months serves to give an immediate incentivizing effect to Ms. Tai which would be a more attractive motivation for her to continue to serve her roles and contribute to the Group's business. The Remuneration Committee and the Board are of the view that the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai with the vesting arrangement as designed aligns with the purpose of the Share Award Scheme, is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
technological capabilities and global presence, Ms. Tai will continue to lead the Group to invest in strategic acquisitions and joint ventures that deliver immediate synergies so as to enhance the Group's ability to deliver comprehensive, Agentic AI solutions tailored to the needs of Asian enterprises and businesses.
In respect of the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai, the Board (including the independent non-executive Directors, but excluding Ms. Tai, who abstained from voting in respect of the grant of RSUs to herself) and the Remuneration Committee have also considered the following factors:
(i) her individual performance;
(ii) time commitment, responsibilities or employment conditions according to the prevailing market practice and industry standard;
(iii) her length of employment or engagement with the Group;
(iv) the Group's remuneration policy and remuneration structure; and
(v) the current remuneration package of Ms. Tai.
The Group's remuneration policy states that the Group's employees may receive compensation in the form of salaries, bonuses, employees' provident fund, share-based payment, and social security contributions and other welfare payments, which are determined by their responsibilities, qualifications, positions and seniority. In accordance with applicable laws and regulations, the Group makes contributions to social security insurance funds (including pension plans, medical insurance, work-related injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance) and housing funds for the Group's employees.
The Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai is consistent with the Company's remuneration policy whereby the Board may grant awards in the form of restricted share units and options to employees or directors of the Group and service providers of the Group under the Share Award Scheme.
In determining the number of RSUs granted to Ms. Tai, the Board and the Remuneration Committee considered different factors such as the total remuneration package (which includes the salary and bonus as well as number of RSUs) received by Ms. Tai for the previous year as the baseline and the current market practice and industry standards regarding the incentive package provided by comparable companies to their directors, and adjusted her remuneration package based on her time dedicated to the Group, duties, responsibilities, achievements and contributions. The Group also considered the total renumeration specifically base salary, shares and equity component

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
of C-level executives and executive directors of comparable small-mid cap companies listed on the Stock Exchange and the Company's share price including the historical performance, current market price and volatility in determining the number of RSUs to be granted.
In this regard, for the year ended December 31, 2025, the total remuneration received by Ms. Tai amounted to SGD5,084,000. Ms. Tai oversees the day to day operations including sales, marketing, supply chain, brand, channel and customer relationships.
Since the Company's October 2024 listing and during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Group has gained significant capital market access, mergers and acquisitions opportunities and organic business growth potential. At the same time, the Company's listing necessitates greater resource allocation by the Group to regulatory compliance. In this regard, Ms. Tai's duties and responsibilities has been expanded. The number of RSUs granted to Ms. Tai reflects the value and benefits to the Group considering her remuneration package in 2025, her contributions to the Group as well as her roles and responsibilities as expanded after the Company's listing.
While reference has been made to the remuneration structures of other companies in similar industry as the Company, in particular those listed on the Stock Exchange, it was noted by the Board and the Remuneration Committee that there are inherent comparability limitations with peers due to variances in business scale and model, geographical location, roles and responsibilities taken up by the relevant personnel, the stage of operations or development of each company. Nevertheless, it was noted by the Board and the Remuneration Committee that granting equity awards comparable in magnitude to the level of the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai for remuneration and/or incentivization purposes is an established market practice. The Board and Remuneration Committee are of the view that the remuneration structure and package of Ms. Tai (taking into account the RSUs to be granted) are fair and reasonable and are aligned with the Group's objectives and market standards.
The Remuneration Committee has considered the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai (including but not limited to the final number of RSUs granted, the vesting schedule and the Awards granted without performance targets), and is of the view that the terms and conditions of such grant will provide a market competitive remuneration package to Ms. Tai, is appropriate and align with the purposes of the Share Award Scheme, in order to recognize and reward the contributions made by Ms. Tai, to the growth and development of the Group and can incentivize and retain her talent for the continuous operations, development and long-term growth of the Group. The Remuneration Committee is of the view that performance target is not necessary as the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai (i) aligns the interests of Ms. Tai with those of the Company and the Shareholders; (ii) recognizes and rewards Ms. Tai for her past contributions to the Company; (iii) motivates Ms. Tai to commit herself to the continuous operation, development and long-term growth of the Group; and (iv) reinforces her commitment to the long-term services
- 18 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
within the Group, which is therefore consistent with the purposes of the Share Award Scheme, after taking into account the following factors: (a) the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai forms part of her remuneration; (b) the value of the RSUs is linked to the future Share price which is in turn linked to the operational and financial performance of the Group; (c) Ms. Tai has direct contributions to and are responsible for the operation, growth and corporate governance of the Group and are in charge of the management of the Group; (d) the number of RSUs granted to Ms. Tai has been determined based on her ability and historical contributions and performance, the role within the Group and the future potential contributions to the Group; and (e) the potential dilution impact to the shareholding interests of the Shareholders will be low, being less than 1%.
The Board and the Remuneration Committee have considered alternative methods to remunerate and incentivize Ms. Tai, such as cash bonuses and salary increments, but considered that the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai best aligns her interests with the strategic goals of the Group. Cash-based incentives are inherently short-term and do not create sustainable alignment between her interests and those of the Company and its Shareholders. They also lack a demonstrable link to long-term value creation for Shareholders. On the other hand, the grant of RSUs achieves both remuneration and incentivization purposes through a two-tranche vesting arrangement, functions as a deferred bonus mechanism driving sustained commitment, and aligns her interests with the interests of the Shareholders, ensuring a stronger connection between the Company's future share price performance and her compensation. Therefore, the Board and the Remuneration Committee believes that granting RSUs to Ms. Tai is the most effective way to incentivize her while fostering alignment with the Company's strategic objectives and Shareholders' value creation.
In light of the above, the Board (including the independent non-executive Directors, but excluding Ms. Tai, who abstained from voting in respect of the grant of RSUs to herself) and the Remuneration Committee consider that the number of RSUs and the terms and conditions of the RSUs are fair and reasonable, and are aligned with the purpose of the Share Award Scheme and the long term interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Directors' interests
Ms. Tai abstained from voting on the relevant Board resolutions in respect of the grant of RSUs to herself.
Save as disclosed, none of the other Directors had any interest in the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai and no other Directors abstained from voting on the relevant Board resolutions in respect of the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai.

Listing Rules Implications
Pursuant to Rule 17.04(1) of the Listing Rules, any grant of Awarded Shares to a Director, chief executive or substantial shareholder of the Company, or any of their respective associates, under the Share Award Scheme must be approved by the independent non-executive Directors (excluding the independent non-executive Director who is the grantee of the Awards (if any)). The Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai had been approved by all the independent non-executive Directors.
Pursuant to Rules 17.04(2) and 17.04(4) of the Listing Rules, where any grant of awards (excluding grant of options) to a Director (other than an independent non-executive director) or chief executive of the Company, or any of their associates, would result in the Shares issued and to be issued in respect of all awards granted (excluding any awards lapsed in accordance with the terms of the scheme) to such person in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant, representing in aggregate over 0.1% of the relevant class of Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares), such further grant of awards must be approved by independent Shareholders in general meeting whereby such grantee and his/her associates and all core connected persons of the Company must abstain from voting in favour at such general meeting.

The Company must send a circular to the shareholders.
Ms. Tai is an executive Director and the chief executive officer of the Company. As the number of Shares in respect of which RSUs have been granted to, Ms. Tai (representing approximately 1.23% of the total issued Shares) would, in a 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant, represent over 0.1% of the Shares in issue, the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai is subject to the approval by the independent Shareholders, where each Grantee, his or her associates and all core connected persons of the Company shall abstain from voting in favour on the relevant resolutions at the AGM.
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
In addition, the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai would also result in the Shares issued and to be issued in respect of all options and awards granted to Ms. Tai in the 12-month period up to and including the date of grant representing in aggregate over 1% of the Shares in issue, the Proposed Grant of RSUs to Ms. Tai is also required to be approved by the Shareholders in accordance with Rule 17.03D(1) of the Listing Rules.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, no such person has indicated its intention to vote against the relevant resolution(s) at the AGM.

Chairman of the Board
APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUYBACK MANDATE
The following is an explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the granting of the Buyback Mandate.
1. REASONS FOR BUYBACK OF SHARES
The Directors believe that the granting of the Buyback Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders.
When exercising the Buyback Mandate, the Directors may, subject to market conditions and the Company's capital management needs at the relevant time of the buy-backs, resolve to cancel the Shares bought back following settlement of any such buy-back or hold them as treasury Shares. Shares bought back for cancellation may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets value of the Company and/or its earning per Share. On the other hand, Shares bought back and held by the Company as treasury Shares may be resold on the market at market prices to raise funds for the Company, or transferred or used for other purposes, subject to compliance with the Listing Rules, the Articles, and the laws of the Cayman Islands. If the Company should hold the Shares bought back as treasury Shares, upon completion of the Shares buy-back, it will withdraw them from CCASS and register the Shares bought back in the Company's register of members in its own name as treasury Shares. The Company will re-deposit its treasury Shares into CCASS only if it has an imminent plan to resell them on the Stock Exchange, and it will complete the resale as soon as possible. The Company will, upon depositing any treasury Shares in CCASS, give clear written instructions to its broker and share registrar that such Shares bought back would be treated as treasury Shares under the Listing Rules. The number of Shares to be bought back on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are bought back will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.
2. SHARE CAPITAL
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 459,891,323 Shares, with no treasury Shares.
- 24 -
APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUYBACK MANDATE
Subject to the passing of the resolution granting of the Buyback Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are allotted and issued or bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to buy back a maximum of 45,989,132 Shares representing 10% of the number of issued shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date (excluding any treasury Shares), during the period ending on the earlier of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiration of the period with which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by any applicable laws or the Articles; or (iii) the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by a resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.
3. FUNDING OF BUYBACKS
Buybacks of Shares will be funded from the Company's internal resources, which shall be funds legally available for such purposes in accordance with the Company's Memorandum and Articles, in the laws of the Cayman Islands and/or any other applicable laws, as the case may be.
4. IMPACT OF BUYBACKS
The Directors have no present intention to buy back any Shares and they would only exercise the power to buy back Shares in circumstances where they consider that the buyback would be in the best interests of the Company. The Directors consider that if the general mandate to buy back Shares were to be exercised in full at the current prevailing market value, it may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and the gearing position of the Group, as compared with the positions disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group as at December 31, 2025, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Group were made up. The Directors do not propose to exercise the mandate to buy back Shares to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Group or the gearing levels which, in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Group.
5. GENERAL
So far as the same may be applicable, the Directors will exercise the Buyback Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.
APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE BUYBACK MANDATE
To the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors or any of their close associates, as defined in the Listing Rules, currently intends to sell any Shares to the Company, if the Buyback Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, no core connected person, as defined in the Listing Rules, has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Buyback Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.
The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief, neither the explanatory statement nor the proposed buyback of Shares pursuant to the Buyback Mandate has any unusual features.
6. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING
If as a result of a buy-back of Shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase of the Shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and may become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a result of any such increase.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, Mr. Lee Shieh-Peen Clement was deemed to be interested in 17,508,000 Shares in aggregate, representing approximately $3.81\%$ of the existing number of issued Shares. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back Shares under the Share Buy-back Mandate and assuming there will be no other change in the issued share capital of the Company, Mr. Lee Shieh-Peen Clement's shareholding interests in the Company would be increased to approximately $4.23\%$ of the number of issued Shares. Such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory general offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such an extent that would give rise to the obligations under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code to make a mandatory offer, or otherwise would result in the number of Shares held by the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of public float (i.e. $25\%$) under the Listing Rules.
