  • If the written request is in order, the Company Secretary will ask the Board (i) to include the resolution in the agenda for the AGM; or (ii) to circulate the statement for the general meeting, provided that the Shareholder(s) concerned have deposited a sum of money reasonably determined by the Board sufficient to meet the Company’s expenses in giving effect thereto.

2. Procedures for Shareholders to propose a person for election as a director

  • A Shareholder who is duly qualified to attend and vote at the general meeting convened to deal with appointment/election of director(s) can deposit a written notice at the Company’s principal office* for the attention of the Company Secretary to propose a person (other than that Shareholder) for election as a director at that meeting.
  • The written notice must be signed by the Shareholder concerned, stating the full name of the person proposed for election as a director, his/her biographical details as required by the Listing Rules, and that person depositing a signed written notice at the Company’s principal office* for the attention of the Company Secretary indicating his/her willingness to be elected.
