OF THE COMPANY TO BE HELD ON 30 NOVEMBER 2021

Unless otherwise defined, all terms and references used herein shall bear the same meanings ascribed to them in the Circular (as defined below).

  1. INTRODUCTION
    The board of directors (the "Board" and each director, a "Director") of Boldtek Holdings Limited (the "Company", and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") refers to:
    1. the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) Act 2020 which enables the Minister for Law by order to prescribe alternative arrangements for, inter alia, listed companies in Singapore to conduct general meetings, either wholly or partly, by electronic communication, video conferencing, tele-conferencing or other electronic means;
    2. the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) (Alternative Arrangements for Meetings for Companies, Variable Capital Companies, Business Trusts, Unit Trusts and Debenture
      Holders) Order 2020, as amended from time to time (the "Alternative Arrangements Order") which sets out the alternative arrangements in respect of, inter alia, general meetings of companies where personal attendance is provided for in written law or certain legal instruments; and
    3. On 6 April 2021, the Ministry of Law ("MinLaw") announced the extension of temporary legislative relief, which allows entities to conduct general meetings via electronic means, beyond 30 June 2021. Such legislation allows entities to hold general meetings via electronic means amid the COVID-19 situation, and will continue to be in force until revoked or amended by MinLaw. Accordingly, until such time, the Company may continue to utilise the latest checklist issued by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority, the Monetary Authority of Singapore and Singapore Exchange Regulation on 1 October 2020 to guide entities on the conduct of their general meetings via electronic means.
