Conditions for the Change of Company Name

The Change of Company Name is subject to (i) the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM to approve the proposed Change of Company Name; and (ii) the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda granting approval for the proposed Change of Company Name.

Once the special resolution approving the proposed Change of Company Name has been passed, the Company will file a certified copy of the said resolution with the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. The proposed Change of Company Name will take effect from the date of entry of the new English name and the new secondary name in Chinese of the Company on the register of companies maintained by the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. Upon the Change of Company Name becoming effective and upon receipt by the Company of the Certificate of Incorporation on Change of Name and the Certificate of Secondary Name, the Company will carry out the necessary filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong under Part 16 of the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 622, Laws of Hong Kong).

Effects of the Change of Company Name

The Change of Company Name will not in any way affect any of the rights of Shareholders and all the share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the present name of the Company will, after the Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be evidence of title to the Shares and will be valid for trading, settlement and registration purposes.

Accordingly, there will not be any arrangement for free exchange of the existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates bearing the new name of the Company. Should the Change of Company Name become effective, all new share certificates of the Company will be issued in the new name of the Company thereafter and the English and Chinese stock short names of the Company will also be changed.

The Company will make further announcements on the Change of Company Name, the change in stock short names once the proposed Change of Company Name becomes effective.
