into recurrent transactions involving the interests of the Related Parties, which are of a revenue or trading nature and

business on terms not favourable than those generally available to the public and are not detrimental to the minority
Shareholders of the Company.
10.2 Detailed information on the Proposed Mandates is set out in the Circular to Shareholders dated 27 April 2021.
Explanatory Note 10:
Resolution 9 - Authority to Directors to allot and issue shares
11.1 The proposed Ordinary Resolution 9 is a general mandate to be obtained from the Shareholders of the Company at
this AGM and, if passed, will empower the Directors pursuant to Section 75 of the CA 2016 to allot and issue ordinary
shares in the Company of up to an aggregate amount not exceeding ten percent (10%) of the issued share capital of the
Company as at the date of such allotment of shares without having to convene a general meeting.
11.2 This general mandate, unless revoked or varied at a general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of the next annual
general meeting of the Company. The general mandate from Shareholders is to provide the Company flexibility to
undertake any share issuance during the financial year without having to convene a general meeting.
11.3 The rationale for this proposed mandate is to allow for possible share issue and/or fund raising exercises including
placement of shares for the purpose of funding current and/or future investment projects, working capital and/or
acquisitions as well as in the event of any strategic opportunities involving equity deals which may require the Company
to allot and issue new shares on an urgent basis and thereby reducing administrative time and costs associated with the
convening of additional Shareholders meeting(s). In any event, the exercise of the mandate is only to be undertaken if
the Board considers it to be in the best interest of the Company.
