At a Board meeting of the Company held today to consider this matter (the “Meeting”), it was resolved by the Board of the Company that in light of these developments and also taking into account the continuous growth and expansion of the business of the Group and business continuity planning considerations, the following appointments be made all with effect from the closure of the Meeting (the “Appointments”): 1. the appointment of Mr. KWOK Kai-fai, Adam (“Mr. Adam Kwok”) and Mr. KWOK Ho-lai, Edward (“Mr. Edward Kwok”) as Alternate Directors to Mr. Thomas Kwok and Mr. Raymond Kwok respectively; and 2. the appointment of Mr. WONG Chik-wing, Mike (“Mr. Mike Wong”) and Mr. LUI Ting, Victor (“Mr. Victor Lui”) as Deputy Managing Directors of the Company.
