PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE EGM

In view of the current development of COVID-19, the Company will implement the following measures at the EGM:

  1. all participants (including Shareholders or their proxies) in the EGM are required to wear appropriate face masks at all times during their attendance; and
  2. no refreshments will be served, and there will be no corporate gifts. Seating will be arranged to ensure adequate physical distancing between attendees in order to reduce person-to-person contact.

To the extent permitted under the laws of Hong Kong, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the EGM venue or require any person to leave the EGM venue in order to ensure the safety of the attendees at the EGM.

2. PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Board proposes to change the Company's English name from ''Pipeline Engineering Holdings Limited'' to ''Trendzon Holdings Group Limited'' and its dual foreign name in Chinese from ''管道工程控股有限公司'' to ''卓航控股集團有限公司'', subject to the conditions as set out below.

3. CONDITIONS OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Proposed Change of Company Name will be subject to the following conditions:

  1. the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders approving the Proposed Change of Company Name at the EGM; and
  2. the approval of the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands being obtained the Proposed Change of Company name.

The relevant filing with the Registrar of Companies in Cayman Islands will be made after the passing of the relevant special resolution at the EGM. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set out above, the Proposed Change of Company Name will take effect from the date of issue of a certificate of incorporation on change of name by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands. The Company will then comply with the necessary registration and/or filing procedures with the Companies Registry in Hong Kong.

4. REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Change of Company Name is to reflect the Company's intention in diversifying its businesses including to venture into investment services and financial services. The Board considers that the Proposed Change of Company Name will better reflect the current status of the Group's business development and its direction of future development and therefore the Proposed Change of Company Name can provide the Company with a fresh new corporate image and identity. The Board is of the opinion that the Proposed Change of Company Name will benefit the Company's future business development and is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

5. EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

The Proposed Change of Company Name will not affect any rights of the Shareholders or the Company's daily business operation or financial position. All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the existing name of the Company will, upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, continue to be valid evidence of title to the shares of the Company and will continue to be valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery 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. Upon the Proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, any issue of share certificates thereafter will bear the new name of the Company and the securities of the Company will be traded on the Stock Exchange under the new name. In addition, after the Proposed Change of Company Name becomes effective, the Company will change the English and Chinese stock short names accordingly, subject to the confirmation of the Stock Exchange. The Company will make further announcement(s) on the Change of Company Name as soon as practicable after the Change of Company Name has become effective and will announce the change of the stock short name following the Change of Company Name. The stock code of the Company will remain as ''1865''.

The notice of EGM is set out on pages 9 to 11 of this circular.

7. PROXY ARRANGEMENT

A form of proxy for use at the EGM is enclosed herewith. Whether or not you are able to attend and/or vote at the EGM in person, you are requested to complete and return the enclosed form of proxy in accordance with the instructions thereon.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

8. VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of Shareholders at a general meeting (save for certain procedural or administrative matters) must be taken by poll. The chairman of the EGM shall therefore demand voting on all resolutions set out in the notice of EGM be taken by way of poll pursuant to Article 66(1) of the Articles of Association.

On a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative shall have one vote for every fully paid Share of which he is the holder. A Shareholder entitled to more than one vote on a poll needs not use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way. The Company will appoint scrutineers to handle vote-taking procedures at the EGM. The results of the poll will be published on the websites of the Stock Exchange and the Company as soon as possible in accordance with Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.

The Proposed Change of Company Name is subject to the approval of a special resolution passed by the Shareholders. As none of the Shareholders is interested in the Proposed Change of Company Name, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting at the EGM on the Proposed Change of Company Name.

For determining the entitlement to attend and vote at the EGM to be held on Wednesday, 5 May 2021, the register of members of the Company will be closed from Friday, 30 April 2021 to Wednesday, 5 May 2021, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares will be registered. In order to qualify for attending and voting at the EGM, all transfers of Shares accompanied by the relevant share certificates must be lodged with the Company's branch share registrar and transfer office in Hong Kong, Tricor Investor Services Limited, Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong for registration no later than 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, 29 April 2021. All persons who are registered holders of the Shares on Wednesday, 5 May 2021, the record date of the EGM, will be entitled to attend and vote at the EGM.

9. RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

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.
