7. Explanatory notes on Ordinary Resolutions: -
The Proposed Resolution 9, if passed, is primarily to give flexibility to the Board of Directors to issue and allot shares at any time in their absolute discretion without convening a general meeting. This authority will unless revoked or varied by the Company in general meeting expire at the next Annual General Meeting.
The Proposed Renewal of Shareholders’ Mandate under Proposed Resolution No. 10 would allow the Company to dispense with announcements to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on the same or convene general meetings from time to time to seek shareholders’ approval as and when such recurrent related party transactions occur. Hence, the Proposed Renewal of Shareholders’ Mandate would result in a saving of administrative time, costs and expenses for the Company. It would also enable the EFB Group to meet its corporate objectives and realise business opportunities, as and when they shall become available to the EFB Group, in a more timely and effective way.
8. Explanatory notes on Special Resolution: -
The Proposed Amendments to the Articles of Association are to be in line with Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities vide its letter on Significant Enhancements to the Listing Requirements for Main Board, Second Board And Mesdaq Market dated 14 December 2006.
