Notes:

  1. Every shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and, on a poll, to vote instead of him. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

  2. Where there are joint holders of any share, any one of such joint holders may vote at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy, in respect of such share as if he were solely entitled thereto; but if more than one of such joint holders be present at the Meeting, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company in respect of the joint holding.

  3. In order to be valid, the form of proxy together with any power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed or a certified copy of such power or authority, must be deposited with the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Meeting or any adjourned meeting (as the case may be). Completion and re turn of the form of proxy will not preclude the shareholders of the Company from attending and voting in person at the Meeting should it/he/she so desire.

As at the date hereof, the board of directors comprises Mr. Mung Kin Keung, Mr. Ha Wing Ho, Peter, Mr. Leong Chi Wai and Mr. Leung King Yue, Alex as executive directors; Mr. Chee Man Sang, Eric, Mr. Lo Tak Kin and Ms. Yu Tin Yan, Winnie as independent non-executive directors.
