PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

The proposed amendments to the Articles of Association is to further enhance the provisions regarding the Company’s profit distribution which are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
 
 
 

 

The proposed amendments to the Articles of Association shall come into effect upon (i) the passing of a special resolution at the General Meeting to approve the amendments; and (ii) obtaining the approval and registration by the relevant government and regulatory authorities in the PRC.

Details of the proposed amendments to the Articles of Association are as follows:

(a)
The original Article 72 which provides that:

“The following matters shall be resolved by way of special resolutions at the general meeting of shareholders:

 
(1)
the increase or reduction in share capital and the issue of shares of any class, warrants and other similar securities;

 
(2)
the issue of debentures of the Company;

 
(3)

is hereby amended as follows:

“The following matters shall be resolved by way of special resolutions at the general meeting of shareholders:

 
(1)
the increase or reduction in share capital and the issue of shares of any class, warrants and other similar securities;


 
 

 

 
(2)
the issue of debentures of the Company;

 
(3)
the division, merger, dissolution, liquidation or change in corporate form of the Company;

 
(4)
the amendment of the Articles of Association;

 
(5)

(7)
any other matters prescribed by law and administrative regulations, and those considered by the general meeting of shareholders and resolved by way of an ordinary resolution, to be of a nature which may have a material impact on the Company and should be adopted by special resolution.”

(b)
The original Article 156 which provides that:

“The Company may distribute dividends in the form of:

 
(1)
cash; and

 
(2)
shares.

The Company shall implement positive profit allocation approaches (including but not limited to giving priority to the allocation of profit in the form of cash dividends) on the principle of placing emphasis on the importance of reasonable return for investors while taking into account the reasonable capital demand of the Company. The Company may distribute interim cash dividends when it deems appropriate.”
 
 
 

 

is hereby amended as follows:

“The Company shall establish and maintain a consistent and stable profit distribution policy, where positive distribution methods (including without limitation giving preference to payment of cash dividends) shall be used to ensure reasonable returns of investment for the shareholders while taking into account the long-term interests of the Company, the interests of all the shareholders as a whole and the reasonable funding requirements and sustainable development of the Company.

Where the Company operates well and the Board believes that the Company’s share price does not match with its equity scale and that the distribution of cash dividends will be conducive to the interest of the Company and its shareholders as a whole, then subject to satisfying the condition for cash dividends as mentioned above, the Company may propose to profit distribution policy for cash dividends.

The profit distribution plan of the Company shall be prepared by the management and submitted to the Board and the Board of Supervisors for approval.

After the resolution in respect of the profit distribution plan is approved at the general meeting, the Board shall complete the distribution of dividends (or bonus shares) within two months after the meeting.
