  2. A white form of proxy for use at the EGM (or any adjournment thereof) is enclosed with the composite document containing the Scheme of Arrangement dated 23 July 2020 despatched to, among others, holders of Shares (the "Shareholders").
  3. In order to be valid, the white form of proxy, together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed or a certified copy thereof, must be lodged with Union Registrars Limited, the Company's Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office at Suites 3301-4, 33/F, Two Chinachem Exchange Square, 338 King's Road, North Point, Hong Kong, not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the EGM or any adjournment thereof failing which the white form of proxy will not be valid.

In the case of joint holders of Shares, any one of such joint holders may vote, either in person or by proxy, in respect of such Shares as if he/or she was solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders be present at the EGM, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other joint holder(s) and, for this purpose, seniority will be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members of the Company in respect of the relevant joint holding of the Shares.

    2. each attendee is required to wear a surgical face mask throughout the meeting and inside the meeting venue, and to maintain a safe distance between seats;
    3. no refreshment will be served, and there will be no corporate gift; and
    4. each attendee may be asked whether (a) he/she travels outside of Hong Kong within the 14-day period immediately before the Court Meeting and (b) he/she is subject to any Hong Kong Government prescribed quarantine. Anyone who responds positively to any of these questions may be denied entry into the meeting venue or be required to leave the meeting venue.

Pursuant to the Prevention and Control of Disease (Prohibition on Group Gathering) Regulation (the "Regulation"), group gatherings of more than 20 persons for shareholders' meetings are required to be accommodated in separate rooms or partitioned areas of not more than 20 persons each.
