8. Ordinary Resolution 11 proposed if passed, will give the directors the authority to issue shares up to an aggregate amount of not exceeding 10% of the issued capital of the Company for the time being for such purposes as the directors would consider in the best interest of the Company. The authority will unless revoked or varied by the Company at a General Meeting expire at the next Annual General Meeting.
9. Ordinary Resolution 12 proposed if passed, will empower the Company to issue its Annual Report 2002 in CD-ROM format. As the Company's shareholders' base is very high, the directors propose to issue the said Annual Report in CD-ROM format as it will cut down substantially on paper, printing and postage costs. However, printed hard copies of the said Annual Report will be given to shareholders upon their request whether verbal or written. Person(s) and contact numbers will be designated to attend to shareholders' requests and to answer queries from shareholders on the use of CD-ROM. This authority given by shareholders of the Company shall be subject to yearly renewal.
