Notes:
| 1. |
The
register of members of the Company will be closed from 27 March
2007 to 30
March 2007 (both dates inclusive) during which no transfer of
shares will
be registered. In order to qualify for voting at the EGM, members
are
reminded to ensure that all instruments of transfer of shares
accompanied
by the relevant share certificate(s), must be lodged with the
Company’s
registrar, Hong Kong Registrars Limited at Room 1806-7, 18th
Floor,
Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong for
registration not later than 4:30 p.m. on 26 March
2007.
|
| 2. |
A
member entitled to attend and vote at the EGM convened by this
notice is
entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote in
his stead. A
proxy need not be a member of the
Company.
|
| 3. |
To
be effective, the instrument appointing a proxy together with
the power of
attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed
or a
certified copy of that power or authority, must be completed
and returned
to the Company’s registered office at 65th Floor, Bank of China Tower, 1
Garden Road, Hong Kong, not less than 48 hours before the time
for holding
the EGM or any adjournment thereof.
|
| 4. |
Completion
and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending
and
voting in person at the EGM or any adjournment thereof and, in
such event,
the relevant form of proxy shall be deemed to be
revoked.
|
| 5. |
Where
there are joint registered holders of any Share, any one of such
persons
may vote at the EGM, either personally or by proxy, in respect
of such
Share as if he were solely entitled thereto; but if more than
one of such
joint registered holders be present at the EGM personally or
by proxy,
then the registered holder so present whose name stands first
on the
register of members of the Company in respect of such Share will
alone be
entitled to vote in respect
thereof.
|
| 6. |
Capitalised
terms used in this notice have the same meaning as is set out
