To the Shareholders,
Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME AND NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 6 October 2021 in respect of the Change of Name.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Board proposes to change the name of the Company from “China Chuanglian Education Financial Group Limited 中國創聯教育金融集團有限公司” to “Chuanglian Holdings Limited 創聯控股 有限公司”, subject to the conditions set out below being fulfilled.
Conditions
The Change of Name will be subject to the following conditions:
-
the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders at the EGM to approve the Change of Name; and
-
the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands granting approval for the use of the proposed new English and Chinese names by the Company.
Reasons for the Change of Name
The Board believes that the new English and Chinese names of the Company can more accurately reflect the Group’s overall business development and is of the opinion that the Change of Name is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
Effect of the Change of Name
The Change of Name will take effect from the date of entry of the new English and Chinese names on the register maintained by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands.
The Company will then carry out all necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong. The Change of Name will not affect any rights of the Shareholders or the Company’s daily business operation and its financial position.
All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the present name of the Company shall, after the Change of Name becoming effective, continue to be evidence of title to the Shares and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery for the same number of Shares in the new name of the Company. As such, no arrangement will be made for the exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for the new share certificates bearing the Company’s new name as a result of the Change of Name.
Once the Change of Name has become effective, any new share certificates of the Company will be issued only in the new name of the Company and the securities of the Company will be traded on the Stock Exchange in the new name.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
LISTING RULES REQUIREMENT
Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the 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 chairman of the EGM will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the EGM pursuant to article 66 of the Articles of Association. The results of poll will be published on the websites of the Stock Exchange and the Company after the EGM in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.
This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.
EGM
Set out on pages 6 to 7 of this circular is a notice of the EGM to be held at Suite 2703, 27/F., Shui On Centre, Nos. 6-8 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong on Thursday, 18 November 2021 at 3:00 p.m. at which special resolution will be proposed to seek the approval of the Shareholders by way of a poll for the Change of Name. To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has an interest in the Change of Name which is materially different from the other Shareholders. Therefore no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the resolution to be proposed at the EGM.
A form of proxy for use at the EGM is enclosed with this circular. Whether or not you intend to attend and vote at the EGM, you are requested to complete and return the enclosed form of proxy to the Company at Room 905-06, China Evergrande Centre, 38 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong or the Company’s Hong Kong share registrar and transfer office, Boardroom Share Registrars (HK) Limited, at Room 2103B, 21/F, 148 Electric Road, North Point, Hong Kong in accordance with the instructions printed thereon as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the EGM or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the EGM or any adjournment thereof should you so wish, and in such event, the form of proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.
