PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE AGM

In view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will implement the following precautionary measures at the AGM to protect attending Shareholders, staff and stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  • (a) compulsory body temperature screening/checks will be conducted for each attendee at each entrance of the AGM venue. Any attendee with a body temperature of over 37.4 degrees Celsius may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue;

  • (b) each attendee must wear a surgical face mask throughout the AGM and inside the AGM venue;

  • (c) distance between seats will be arranged in the AGM venue to ensure proper social distancing and each attendee will be assigned to a designated seating area; and

  • (d) no refreshment will be served, and no corporate gift will be distributed.

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

In the interest of all stakeholders' health and safety and consistent with the latest COVID-19 guidelines for prevention and control, the Company reminds all Shareholders that physical attendance in person at the AGM is not necessary for the purpose of exercising voting rights. As an alternative, by using proxy forms with voting instructions inserted, Shareholders may appoint the chairman of the AGM as their proxy to vote on the relevant resolutions at the AGM instead of attending the AGM in person.

The proxy form is attached to this circular for Shareholders who opt to receive physical circulars. Alternatively, the proxy form can be downloaded from the Company's website atwww.cksd.com. If you are not a registered Shareholder (if your shares are held via banks, brokers, custodians or the Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited), you should consult directly with your banks or brokers or custodians (as the case may be) to assist you in the appointment of proxy.

If Shareholders have any questions relating to the AGM, please contact Tricor Tengis Limited, the Company's share registrar as follows:
