Proposal Eleven

 

By a special resolution, and subject to the passing of Proposal Twelve in relation to the approval to adopt the Second Amended and Restated Constitution, to resolve that:

   

(a)     Pursuant to Section 64A of the Singapore Companies Act 1967 (the “Singapore Companies Act”), the Directors be and are hereby authorized to:

(i)     allot and issue, in aggregate, up to such number of Class B Preference Shares equivalent to 10% of issued Ordinary Shares as may be approved by the board of Directors (the “Board”), each carrying special voting rights and specific rights as set out in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution and on such terms and conditions as the Board may at any time and from time to time think fit and allot the same to Kin Wai Ho, as the Board may decide;

Who is entitled to vote?

You may vote if you owned ordinary shares of the Company as of the close of business on August 25, 2025, which we refer to as the “Record Date”. Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote. As of August 25, 2025, we had 38,417,987 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Basis of voting

Votes shall be taken on a poll with one vote for each share. In respect of both the routine business and the special business to be transacted at the Annual General Meeting, in order for a resolution to be passed, more than 50% of the eligible votes cast on the resolution must be in favor of the resolution. Whilst shares for which an abstention from voting has been recorded are counted toward the quorum of the meeting, the calculation of the percentage of votes cast in favor of the resolution disregards abstained votes. A person entitled to more than one vote need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way.

How do I provide voting instructions before the Annual General Meeting?

If you are a shareholder who hold their shares beneficially through an institutional holder of record, such as a bank or broker (sometimes referred to as holding shares “in street name”), you will receive voting instructions from that holder of record.

If you are a shareholder of record, meaning that you hold your shares in certificate form, you have the following options:

To provide voting instructions by Mail

1) Check the appropriate boxes on the voting instruction form

2) Sign and date the voting instruction form.

3) Return the voting instruction form in the envelope provided.

If you hold your shares through an account with a bank or broker, your ability to vote by the Internet depends on their voting procedures. Please follow the directions that your bank or broker provides.

Please note that the latest we will accept voting instructions is on October 9, 2025, at 11:59 A.M., Singapore Time (October 9, 2025, at 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time).

13

Can I change my mind after I return my proxy?

You may change your voting instructions at any time before the polls close at the conclusion of voting at the Annual General Meeting. You may do this by (1) signing another proxy card with voting instructions with a later date and returning it to us before the Annual General Meeting, or (2) voting at the Annual General Meeting.

What if I return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?

Proxies that are signed and returned but do not contain instructions will be voted “FOR” Proposal One, Two, Three, Four, Five and Six, in accordance with the best judgment of the named proxies on any other matters properly brought before the Annual General Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or instruction form?

It indicates that your ordinary shares are registered differently and are in more than one account. To ensure that all shares are voted, please sign and return all proxy cards. We encourage you to register all your accounts in the same name and address. Those holding shares through a bank or broker should contact their bank or broker and request consolidation.

How many votes must be present to hold the Annual General Meeting?

Your shares are counted as present at the Annual General Meeting if you attend the Annual General Meeting and vote in person or if you properly return a proxy by internet or mail. In order for us to conduct our Annual General Meeting, at least two shareholders must be present in person or by proxy. This is referred to as a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum at the Annual General Meeting. If a quorum is not present or represented, the chairman of the Annual General Meeting may, with the consent of the Annual General Meeting, adjourn the Annual General Meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the Annual General Meeting, until a quorum is present or represented.

This proposal requires affirmative (“FOR”) votes of three-fourths of votes cast by shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual General Meeting.

What are Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes?

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual General Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. An abstention is the voluntary act of not voting by a shareholder who is present at the Annual General Meeting and entitled to vote. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a broker nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee, your broker or nominee may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to some of the matters to be acted upon at the Annual General Meeting. If you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions regarding such matters, your proxy will be deemed a “broker non-vote.”

The question of whether your broker or nominee may be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to a particular matter depends on whether the particular proposal is deemed to be a “routine” matter and how your broker or nominee exercises any discretion they may have in the voting of the shares that you beneficially own. Brokers and nominees can use their discretion to vote “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under the rules and interpretations of the NYSE, “non-routine” matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of shareholder, such as mergers, shareholder

15

proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), executive compensation (including any advisory shareholder votes on executive compensation and on the frequency of shareholder votes on executive compensation), and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported.

For any proposal that is considered a “routine” matter, your broker or nominee may vote your shares in its discretion either for or against the proposal even in the absence of your instruction. For any proposal that is considered a “non-routine” matter for which you do not give your broker instructions, the shares will be treated as broker non-votes. “Broker non-votes” occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed “non-routine.” Broker non-votes will not be considered to be shares “entitled to vote” on any “non-routine” matter and therefore will not be counted as having been voted on the applicable proposal. Therefore, if you are a beneficial owner and want to ensure that shares you beneficially own are voted in favor or against any or all of the proposals in this proxy statement, the only way you can do so is to give your broker or nominee specific instructions as to how the shares are to be voted.

Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast on an item and therefore will not affect the outcome of any proposal presented in this proxy statement. Abstention and broker non-votes, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum present at the Annual General Meeting.

Note that if you are a beneficial holder and do not provide specific voting instructions to your broker, the broker that holds your shares will not be authorized to vote on Proposal Eight, Proposal Nine, Proposal Ten, Proposal Eleven and Proposal Twelve because these are considered non-routine matters. Proposal One, Proposal Two, Proposal Three, Proposal Four, Proposal Five and Proposal Six are considered to be routine matters and, accordingly, if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account for Proposal, brokers will be permitted to exercise their discretionary authority to vote for the approval of such proposal.

Accordingly, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, whether or not you plan to attend the Annual General Meeting.

THE AUTHORIZATION OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY TO ISSUE NEW ORDINARY SHARES OR TO MAKE OR GRANT OFFERS WHICH MAY REQUIRE NEW ORDINARY SHARES TO BE ISSUED
(ITEM 8 OF THE PROXY CARD)

Background

The Company is proposing to authorize the Board of Directors to issue such number of new ordinary shares in the capital of the Company as may be approved by the board of Directors in connection with the initial public offering of the Company at the price(s) to be determined by the Board and on such terms and conditions as the Board may at any time and from time to time think fit, as well as issue new ordinary shares whether by way of rights, bonus or otherwise, or to make or grant offers, agreements or options (collectively “Instruments”) that might or would require new ordinary shares to be issued, including but not limited to the creation and issue of (as well as adjustments to) options, warrants, debentures or other instruments convertible into new ordinary shares, at any time and upon such terms and conditions and for such purposes and to such persons as the Directors may in their absolute discretion deem fit.

PROPOSAL NINE

BY A SPECIAL RESOLUTION, TO APPROVE THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION OF
THE COMPANY’S ORDINARY SHARES AND SERIES B PREFERENCE SHARES
(ITEM 9 OF THE PROXY CARD)

General

A special resolution was passed by the shareholders on June 19, 2025, granting authority to the Directors to effect a share consolidation of the issued ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) as at the Share Consolidation Record Date, at a ratio of six (6) shares into one (1), so that every shareholder holding six (6) ordinary shares each will hold one (1) ordinary share each upon the consolidation taking effect, such consolidated shares having the same rights and being subject to the same restrictions as the existing ordinary shares each in the capital of the Company as set out in the Company’s Constitution, on the effective date as determined by the Directors, and such date shall be announced by the Company (the “Effective Date”).

The Directors believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and the shareholders for the mandate to be extended and amended, such that:

(a)     as at the Share Consolidation Record Date, (i) every six (6) issued ordinary shares in the capital of the Company to be consolidated into one (1) ordinary share of the Company; and (ii) every six (6) issued Class B Preference Shares in the capital of the Company to be consolidated into one (1) Class B Preference Share of the Company; and

(b)    such authority to conduct the share consolidation shall continue in force until (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company or (ii) the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by law to be held, whichever is earlier (the “Share Consolidation”).

The Share Consolidation must be passed by special resolution which requires affirmative (“FOR”) votes of three-fourths of votes cast by shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual General Meeting.

The Share Consolidation will be implemented simultaneously for all Ordinary Shares and Class B Preference Shares. The Share Consolidation will affect all shareholders uniformly and will have no effect on the proportionate holdings of any individual shareholder, with the exception of adjustments related to the treatment of fractional shares (see below).

Purpose of the Share Consolidation

The Company’s Ordinary Shares are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “PMEC.” Among other requirements, the listing maintenance standards established by Nasdaq require the Ordinary Shares to have a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share. Pursuant to the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”), if the closing bid price of the Ordinary Shares is not equal to or greater than $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will send a deficiency notice to the Company. Thereafter, if the Ordinary Shares do not close at a minimum bid price of $1.00 or more for 10 consecutive business days within 180 calendar days of the deficiency notice, Nasdaq may determine to delist the Ordinary Shares.

On May 14, 2024, the Company received a written notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, and the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until November 11, 2024, to regain compliance. Nasdaq has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until May 12, 2025, to regain compliance. On May 13, 2025, the Company received a written confirmation from Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.

There is a possibility that the Company may not be in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule in the future. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule in the event of such non-compliance, the Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to solicit the approval of the shareholders to effect a share consolidation of the Company’s Ordinary Shares. The Directors believe that without receiving the shareholders’ approval and without the closing price of the Ordinary Shares otherwise meeting the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement, the Company’s Ordinary Shares will be delisted from Nasdaq.

28

In the event the Ordinary Shares were no longer eligible for continued listing on Nasdaq, the Company could be forced to seek to be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the “pink sheets.” These alternative markets are generally considered to be less efficient than, and not as broad as, Nasdaq, and therefore less desirable. Accordingly, the Directors believe delisting of the Ordinary Shares would likely have a negative impact on the liquidity and market price of the Ordinary Shares and may increase the spread between the “bid” and “ask” prices quoted by market makers.

The Directors have considered the potential harm to the Company of a delisting from Nasdaq and believes that delisting could, among other things, adversely affect (i) the trading price of the Ordinary Shares, and (ii) the liquidity and marketability of the Ordinary Shares. This could reduce the ability of holders of the Ordinary Shares to purchase or sell Ordinary Shares as quickly and as inexpensively as they have done historically. Delisting could also adversely affect the Company’s relationships with customers who may perceive the Company’s business less favorably, which would have a detrimental effect on the Company’s relationships with these entities.

Furthermore, if the Ordinary Shares were no longer listed on Nasdaq, it may reduce the Company’s access to capital and cause the Company to have less flexibility in responding to its capital requirements. Certain institutional investors may also be less interested or prohibited from investing in the Ordinary Shares, which may cause the market price of the Ordinary Shares to decline.

Trading of our Ordinary Shares

When the Share Consolidation is implemented, our Ordinary Shares will begin trading on a post-split basis on the effective date that we announce by press release. In connection with the Share Consolidation, the CUSIP number of our Ordinary Shares (which is an identifier used by participants in the securities industry to identify our Ordinary Shares) will change.

Fractional Shares

No fractional Ordinary Shares and/or Class B Preference Shares will be issued to any shareholders in connection with the Share Consolidation. Any fractional shares resulting from the Share Consolidation shall be rounded up such that each shareholder will be entitled to receive one (1) Consolidated Ordinary Share and/or one (1) Consolidated Preference Share in lieu of the fractional share that would have resulted from the Share Consolidation.

Street Name Holders of Ordinary Shares

The Company intends for the Share Consolidation to treat shareholders holding Ordinary Shares or Class B Preference Shares in street name through a nominee (such as a bank or broker) in the same manner as shareholders whose shares are registered in their names. Nominees will be instructed to effect the Share Consolidation for their beneficial holders. However, nominees may have different procedures. Accordingly, shareholders holding Ordinary Shares or Class B Preference Shares in street name should contact their nominees.

Share Certificates

Mandatory surrender of certificates by our shareholders is not required. The Company’s transfer agent will adjust the record books of the Company to reflect the Share Consolidation as of the Effective Date. New certificates will not be mailed to shareholders.

Vote Required

This proposal requires affirmative (“FOR”) votes of three-fourths of votes cast by shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual General Meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively on such matter. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy or unless authority to vote is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this Proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THIS PROPOSAL. KIN WAI HO ABSTAINED FROM VOTING ON THE BOARD RESOLUTION IN RELATION TO THIS PROPOSAL AS HE HAS A PERSONAL INTEREST IN THIS PROPOSAL.

29

PROPOSAL TEN

BY AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION, TO APPROVE THE RENEWAL OF
THE PROPOSED SHARE BUYBACK MANDATE
(ITEM 10 OF THE PROXY CARD)

General

The Directors believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and the shareholders, and is hereby seeking the approval of the shareholders of the Company for the renewal of the Share Buyback Mandate, to enable the Company to purchase or otherwise acquire its issued ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (“Shares”) in accordance with, and in the manner prescribed by, Singapore law. If approved by the shareholders at the AGM, the authority conferred by the Share Buyback Mandate will take effect from the date of the AGM and continue in force until the date on which the next annual general meeting is held or required by law to be held, unless prior thereto, purchases or acquisitions of Shares by the Company pursuant to the Share Buyback Mandate have been carried out to the full extent mandated, or the authority conferred by the Share Buyback Mandate is revoked or varied by the shareholders in a general meeting.

The rationale for obtaining the Share Buyback Mandate is as follows:

(a)     The Share Buyback Mandate will give the Directors the flexibility to purchase or acquire its Shares, if and when appropriate, with a view to enhancing the earnings per share and/or the net asset value per share.

(b)    The Directors believe that share purchases also provide the Company and its Directors with an alternative to facilitate the return of surplus cash over and above its ordinary capital requirements and exercise greater control over the Company’s share capital structure.

(c)     Shares bought back under the Share Buyback Mandate can be held by the Company as treasury shares for the purpose of satisfying awards granted under its share-based incentive schemes from time to time;

(d)    With the Share Buyback Mandate, the Directors will have the ability to purchase Shares on Nasdaq, where appropriate, to stabilize the demand for the Shares and to buffer against short-term share price volatility due to market speculation.

Market Acquisition of Shares by the Company will be made only in circumstances where it is considered to be in the best interests of the Company. Further, the Directors do not propose to carry out share purchases to such an extent that would, or in circumstances that might, result in a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company or result in the Company being delisted from Nasdaq.

Authority and Limits on the Proposed Share Buyback Mandate

The authority and limitations placed on purchases or acquisitions of Shares by the Company under the Share Buyback Mandate are summarised below:

Maximum Number of Shares

Only Shares which are issued and fully paid may be purchased or acquired by the Company under the Share Buyback Mandate. Subject to the Singapore Companies Act, the Share Buyback Mandate will authorize the Company, from time to time, to purchase such number of Shares which represents up to a maximum of 20 per cent. (20%) of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the AGM at which the Share Buyback Mandate is approved.

To the extent that the Share Consolidation in Proposal Nine is carried out prior to the share buyback under this Proposal Ten, the maximum number of Shares which may be purchased or acquired by the Company pursuant to the Share Buyback Mandate shall correspondingly be reduced in accordance with the ratio set out in Proposal Nine.

30

Duration of Authority

Purchases or acquisitions of Shares may be made, at any time and from time to time, by the Company from the date of the AGM at which the Share Buyback Mandate is approved, up to the earliest of:

(a)     the date on which the next annual general meeting of the Company is held or required by law to be held, whichever is earlier;

(b)    the date on which the authority conferred by the Share Buyback Mandate is revoked or varied; or

(c)     the date on which the purchases or acquisitions of Shares pursuant to the Share Buyback Mandate are carried out to the full extent mandated.

Manner of Purchase or Acquisition of Shares

Purchases or acquisitions of Shares may be made by way of Market Acquisitions. Market Acquisitions refer to purchases or acquisitions of Shares by the Company effected on Nasdaq, through one or more duly licensed stockbrokers appointed by the Company for the purpose, in accordance with Section 76E of the Singapore Companies Act.

Maximum Purchase Price

The purchase price (excluding brokerage, stamp duties, commission, applicable goods and services tax and other related expenses) to be paid for the Shares will be determined by the Directors. However, the purchase price must not exceed the highest independent bid or the last independent transaction price, whichever is higher, of the Shares quoted or reported on Nasdaq, as the case may be, or shall not exceed any volume weighted average price, or other price determined under any pricing mechanism, in compliance with the requirements under Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, at the time the purchase is effected. In addition, if the Company is relying on the bid to support a higher price, at least two independent bids are required.

Status of Purchased or Acquired Shares

Under the Singapore Companies Act, Shares purchased or acquired by the Company may be held or dealt with as treasury shares. Some of the provisions on treasury shares under the Singapore Companies Act are summarized below:

Maximum Holdings

The number of Shares held as treasury shares (including shares held by a subsidiary under Sections 21(4B) and 21(6C) of the Singapore Companies Act) cannot at any time exceed 10% of the total number of issued Shares.

Voting and Other Rights

The Company cannot exercise any right in respect of treasury shares. In particular, the Company cannot exercise any right to attend or vote at meetings and for the purposes of the Singapore Companies Act, the Company shall be treated as having no right to vote in respect of treasury shares and the treasury shares shall be treated as having no voting rights.

In addition, no dividend may be paid, and no other distribution of the Company’s assets may be made, to the Company in respect of treasury shares. However, the allotment of shares as fully paid bonus shares in respect of treasury shares is allowed. Also, a subdivision or consolidation of any treasury share is allowed so long as the total value of the treasury shares after the subdivision or consolidation is the same as before.

Disposal and Cancellation

Pursuant to Section 76K of the Singapore Companies Act, where ordinary shares are held as treasury shares, the Company may at any time:

(a)     sell the treasury shares for cash;

(b)    transfer the treasury shares for the purposes of or pursuant to any share scheme, whether for employees, directors or other persons;

31

(c)     transfer the treasury shares as consideration for the acquisition of shares in or assets of another company or assets of a person;

(d)    cancel the treasury shares; or

(e)     sell, transfer or otherwise use the treasury shares for such other purposes as may be prescribed by the Minister for Finance.

Source of Funds

In purchasing or acquiring Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purchase or acquisition in accordance with the Constitution and applicable laws in Singapore. Payment may be made by the Company in consideration of the purchase or acquisition of its own Shares out of the Company’s capital as well as from its profits.

The Company intends to use internal resources and/or external borrowings to finance purchases or acquisitions of its Shares under the Share Purchase Mandate. The Directors do not intend to exercise the Share Buyback Mandate to such extent as would have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing levels of the Group. In determining whether to undertake any purchases or acquisitions of Shares under the Share Buyback Mandate, the Directors will take into account, inter alia, the prevailing market conditions, the financial position of the Group and other relevant factors.

Financial Effects

The financial effects on the Company and the Group arising from purchases or acquisitions of Shares which may be made pursuant to the Share Buyback Mandate will depend on, inter alia, whether the Shares are purchased or acquired out of capital or profits of the Company, the aggregate number of Shares purchased or acquired, the consideration paid at the relevant time and whether the Shares purchased or acquired are held in treasury or cancelled.

Under the Singapore Companies Act, purchases or acquisitions of Shares by the Company may be made out of the Company’s capital or profits so long as the Company is solvent.

The financial effects on the Company, based on the consolidated unaudited financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended March 31, 2025, are based on the assumptions set out below:

(a)     Purchase or Acquisition out of capital and/or profits

(i)     if the Shares are purchased or acquired entirely out of the capital of the Company, the Company shall reduce the amount of its share capital by the total amount of the purchase price paid by the Company for the Shares (the “Purchase Price”) and the amount available for the distribution of cash dividends by the Company will not be reduced;

(ii)    if the Shares are purchased or acquired entirely out of profits of the Company, the Company shall reduce the amount of its profits by the total amount of the Purchase Price and correspondingly reduce the amount available for the distribution of cash dividends by the Company; or

(iii)   where the Shares are purchased or acquired out of both the capital and the profits of the Company, the Company shall reduce the amount of its share capital and profits proportionately by the total amount of the Purchase Price.

(b)    Number of Shares Purchased or Acquired

Based on the number of issued and paid-up ordinary shares as at the Record Date of this Notice, and assuming that no further Shares are issued on or prior to the AGM nor will any share consolidation have taken place, the purchase or acquisition by the Company of up to the maximum limit of 20 per cent (20%) of its issued Shares will result in the purchase or acquisition of 7,683,597 Shares, of which only 3,841,798 Shares may be held as treasury shares (on the assumption that the Company does not currently have any treasury shares). Any shares repurchased after these 3,841,798 Shares are repurchased and held as treasury shares will be deemed as cancelled immediately.

32

(c)     Maximum price to be paid for Share Purchases

For illustrative purposes only, in the case of purchase by the Company and assuming that the Company purchases or acquires 7,683,597 Shares at the Maximum Price (based on the definition set out in Proposal Ten and with reference to the closing price of US$1.52 per share as of August 20, 2025), the maximum amount of funds required for the purchase or acquisition of the 7,683,597 Shares is approximately US$11,679,067.

Shareholders should note that the financial effects illustrated above are based on certain assumptions and purely for illustrative purposes only. In particular, it is important to note that the appended analysis is based on historical audited accounts of the Company for the financial year ended March 31, 2025 and is not necessarily representative of the future financial performance of the Company or the Group. Under the Singapore Companies Act, the Company may purchase or acquire its own Shares out of the Company’s capital, as well as from its profits, so long as the Company is solvent. The Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Buyback Mandate in contravention of the Singapore Companies Act or in a manner and to such extent that the financial position of the Group would be materially adversely affected.

Vote Required

This Proposal requires affirmative (“FOR”) votes of a majority of votes cast by shareholders present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy or unless authority to vote is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this proposal.

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THIS PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL ELEVEN

BY AN ORDINARY RESOLUTION, TO APPROVE THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF
A NEW CLASS OF PREFERENCE SHARES TO KIN WAI HO
(ITEM 11 OF THE PROXY CARD)

General

Subject to the passing of Proposal Twelve in relation to the approval to adopt the Second Amended and Restated Constitution, the Company is proposing to authorize the Board to issue, in aggregate, up to such number of Class B Preference Shares equivalent to 10% of the issued Ordinary Shares, having enhanced voting rights in the capital of the Company, each carrying special voting rights and specific rights as set out in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution and on such terms and conditions as the Board may at any time and from time to time think fit and allot the same to Kin Wai Ho; as well as make or grant offers, agreements or options (collectively, “Class B Preference Share Instruments”) that might or would require Class B Preference Shares to be allotted and issued (including but not limited to the creation and issue of (as well as adjustments to) warrants, debentures or other instruments convertible into Class B Preference Shares, at any time and upon such terms and conditions and for such purposes and to Kin Wai Ho as the Board may in their absolute discretion deem fit. This authority would further extend to the issuance of new Class B Preference Shares in pursuance of any Class B Preference Share Instruments made or granted by the Directors while the authorization is in force.

This is provided always that:

(1)    in exercising such authority, the Company shall comply with all applicable laws, including the provisions of the Act, the Nasdaq Listing Rules for the time being in force (unless such compliance has been waived by the Nasdaq) and the Constitution for the time being of the Company; and

(2)    unless revoked or varied by the Company in a general meeting by ordinary resolution, such authority shall continue in force until (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company or (ii) the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by law to be held, whichever is earlier.

For further details on the rights attached to the Class B Preference Shares, please refer to Proposal Twelve.

Rationale for the Proposed Issuance of the Class B Preference Shares to Kin Wai Ho

The proposal to issue Class B Preference Shares to Kin Wai Ho, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, is a strategic decision rooted in the recognition of Kin Wai Ho’s contributions to the Company and to secure long-term leadership continuity and facilitate expedited decision-making essential for the Company’s continued growth in highly competitive technology markets.

Kin Wai Ho’s exceptional leadership has been instrumental in the Company’s successful listing on Nasdaq, a milestone that significantly enhanced the Company’s access to capital markets and global investor base. This achievement required his deep understanding of international markets, regulatory frameworks, and investor expectations. His relationships with key financial institutions and strategic vision for positioning the Company as a technology-driven enterprise were critical factors in navigating the complex listing process and achieving this corporate milestone that has fundamentally transformed the Company’s financial capabilities and market recognition.

Kin Wai Ho has demonstrated exceptional leadership and vision, particularly in the realms of automation and technology-driven solutions. Under his guidance, the Company has experienced significant growth, marked by innovative advancements in robotics and artificial intelligence. Notably, Kin Wai Ho was instrumental in the creation of Primech AI Pte. Ltd., the Company’s subsidiary that successfully developed Hytron, Asia’s first toilet-cleaning robot. This innovative technology introduced unprecedented levels of cleaning efficiency, setting new benchmarks in the industry and allowing the Company to gain a competitive edge over its competitors. This groundbreaking achievement underscores Kin Wai Ho’s commitment to pioneering solutions that enhance operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Under Kin Wai Ho’s direction, Primech AI Pte. Ltd. has evolved from a regional operation to an internationally recognized technology innovator. His strategic foresight in identifying emerging markets for AI-powered cleaning solutions and his ability to adapt the Company’s offerings to diverse international requirements have been pivotal to

34

this expansion. His established relationships with international partners and deep understanding of various regulatory environments have enabled Primech AI Pte. Ltd. to penetrate markets that would otherwise remain inaccessible, driving substantial revenue growth and brand recognition across multiple territories.

By granting these Class B Preference Shares to Kin Wai Ho, the Company aims to foster long-term value creation and ensure sustained industry leadership. This alignment is crucial as we navigate the evolving technological landscape and continue to drive innovation within the sector. In today’s fast-paced business environment, the ability to respond quickly to market changes and opportunities is essential. By allowing Kin Wai Ho to have enhanced voting shares, the Company can capitalize on strategic initiatives without the delays that can arise from a more dispersed voting structure. This agility is vital for the Company to maintain a competitive edge and drive sustained growth.

The Directors believe that empowering Kin Wai Ho with Class B Preference Shares will reinforce his commitment to the Company’s strategic objectives and enhance the competitive position of the business. This decision reflects the Directors’ confidence in Kin Wai Ho’s ability to lead the company towards greater commercial success, benefiting all stakeholders involved.

The Directors believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and the shareholders to create a new class of preference shares with enhanced voting rights, namely Class B Preference Shares, as it would support the Company’s long-term strategic vision.

Pursuant to Section 75 of the Singapore Companies Act, the Company may not allot any preference shares or convert any issued shares into preference shares unless there are set out in its constitution the rights of the holders of those shares with respect to repayment of capital, participation in surplus assets and profits, cumulative or non-cumulative dividends, voting and priority of payment of capital and dividend in relation to other shares or other classes of preference shares.

Therefore, the Company is seeking to amend its current Constitution by substituting it with the Second Amended and Restated Constitution, in which the rights and privileges of the Class B Preference Shares are set out.

The Board of Directors (save for Kin Wai Ho) approved, and recommended the shareholders of the Company to approve, a special resolution that, the Second Amended and Restated Constitution in the form set forth in Annex A to the accompanying proxy statement be and are hereby approved and adopted in substitution for and to the exclusion of the existing Company Constitution with immediate effect and any director, registered office provider or company secretary of the Company be and is hereby authorized to do all such acts, deeds and things and execute all such documents and make all such arrangements that he/she shall, in his/her absolute discretion, deem necessary or expedient to give effect and implement the adoption of the Second Amended and Restated Constitution, including without limitation, attending to the necessary filings with the Registrar of Companies in Singapore and with any other relevant authorities.

The Second Amended and Restated Constitution, largely comprises of the existing provisions of the existing Constitution of the Company, and is proposed to be adopted to, inter alia, set out the rights and privileges of Class B Preference Shares.

Purpose of the Creation of Class B Preference Shares

The proposed creation of a new class of Class B Preference Shares is primarily to ensure stability and continuity in key leadership of the Company, particularly during critical phases of growth and transformation of the Company. By having the ability to grant enhanced voting power to extraordinary leaders, the Directors aim to:

(i)     safeguard the Company’s mission and values against short-term market pressures and potential hostile takeovers;

(ii)    allow the Company to pursue long-term projects or investments that may not pay off immediately but are in shareholders’ best interests over time;

(iii)   sustain innovation and growth strategies;

(iv)   incentivize extraordinary leaders, whose skills, relationships, and/or vision are uniquely valuable to the Company; and

(v)    enable an experienced leader of the Company to make decisive, forward-looking decisions while maintaining accountability to all shareholders through transparent governance practices.

36

Proposed Terms of Class B Preference Shares

Accordingly, the Directors are hereby seeking shareholder approval for the creation of a new class of Class B Preference Shares, with the rights, benefits and privileges as listed in Article 8A of the Second Amended and Restated Constitution of the Company.

Effects of Class B Preference Shares

Upon the passing of this proposal, the Company will have a dual-class voting structure such that the Company will have both Ordinary Shares as well as Class B Preference Shares. Except for the voting rights and the conversion rights as described below, each Ordinary Share and Class B Preference Share ranks pari passu and has the same rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions.

(a)     Voting Rights

Holders of Ordinary Shares and Class B Preference Shares shall, at all times, vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote by the shareholders at any such general meeting. Each Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one (1) vote on all matters subject to a vote at general meetings of the shareholders, and each Class B Preference Share shall be entitled to ten (10) votes on all matters subject to a vote at general meetings of the shareholders.

(b)    Conversion Rights

Upon (i) any sale or transfer of any Class B Preference Shares to any person; (ii) in the case the holder of the Class B Preference Share is a director or officer of the Company and said person ceases service as a director or officer of the Company (whether through death, incapacity, retirement, resignation or otherwise); or (iii) if the aggregate number of Class B Preference Shares in issue exceeds 10% of issued Ordinary Shares for any reason whatsoever (including but not limited to the Company undertaking a share buyback), such number of Class B Preference Shares which exceed 10% of Ordinary Shares shall be converted into Ordinary Shares, each of such Class B Preference Share will be automatically and immediately converted into one Ordinary Share, unless otherwise specifically approved by shareholders through an enhanced voting process. An enhanced voting process, in this context, means a voting process in a general meeting of the Company where votes are cast on the basis that one Class B Preference Share is limited to one vote.

Do note that issuances of Class B Preference Shares or securities convertible into Class B Preference Shares could have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share, book value per share, and the voting power and interest of current holders of ordinary shares. In addition, the availability of additional shares of Class B Preference Shares for issuance could, under certain circumstances, discourage or make more difficult any efforts to obtain control of the Company. The Directions are not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, nor is this proposal being presented with the intent that it be used to prevent or discourage any acquisition attempt. However, nothing would prevent the Directors from taking any such actions that it deems to be consistent with its fiduciary duties.

Principal changes proposed to be introduced by the Second Amended and Restated Constitution

Article in Second Amended
and Restated Constitution

 

Rationale

8A

 

This is a proposed insertion of a new Article 8A in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution which relates to, inter alia, the basic rights attaching to the proposed Class B Preference Shares. Pursuant to Section 75(1) of the Singapore Companies Act, no company may allot any preference shares or convert any issued shares into preference shares unless there are set out in its constitution the rights of the holders of those shares with respect to repayment of capital, participation in surplus assets and profits, cumulative or non-cumulative dividends, voting and priority of payment of capital and dividend in relation to other shares or other classes of preference shares.

The Company proposes to insert Article 8A in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution to set out the rights of the Class B Preference Shares to reflect compliance with Section 75(1) of the Singapore Companies Act.

37

 

Members are to refer to Article 8A in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution for the terms and conditions of the Class B Preference Shares.

8B

 

To state that the Company has the power to issue further preference capital ranking equally with, or in priority to preference shares already issued.

12(B)

 

Amended Article 12(B) in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution to provide for automatic conversion in accordance with Article 8A(A)(d) in the event that (i) the Class B Preference Share is sold or transferred to any person; or (ii) if the holder of the Class B Preference Share is a director or officer of the Company and said person ceases service as a director or officer of the Company (whether through death, incapacity, retirement, resignation or otherwise).

45

 

Amended Article 45 in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution to require compliance with Article 8A(A)(d) in the event of a transmission of shares.

49

 

Amended Article 49 in the Second Amended and Restated Constitution to include an additional requirement that the Directors must, on the requisition of holders of ordinary shares holding at the date of the deposit of the requisition not less than 10% of the total voting rights on a one-share-one-vote basis of all holders of ordinary shares having at that date a right to vote at general meetings, immediately proceed duly to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company to be held as soon as practicable but in any case not later than 2 months after the receipt by the Company of the requisition.

This amended Article 49 is consistent with the Company’s commitment to transparent and responsible corporate governance. It is intended to ensure that the rights of holders of Ordinary Shares are adequately safeguarded, notwithstanding the concentration of voting power among holders of Class B Preference Shares. By enabling shareholders with a significant economic interest to convene a general meeting, the Company reinforces its dedication to maintaining accountability and equitable shareholder participation.

Potential Effects

If shareholders approve this proposal, the amendment and restatement of the Constitution of the Company will become effective immediately upon such approval.

Vote Required

This proposal requires affirmative (“FOR”) votes of three-fourths of votes cast by shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual General Meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively on such matter. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy or unless authority to vote is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this Proposal.

Subject to applicable laws, two holders of Class B Preference Shares shall constitute the quorum at a meeting of the holders of Class B Preference Shares (unless there is only one person holding Class B Preference Shares entitled to vote at such General Meeting in which case the quorum shall be one).

 

8B.

 

The Company has power to issue further preference capital ranking equally with, or in priority to, preference shares already issued.

 
   

VARIATION OF RIGHTS

 

9.

 

If at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, subject to the provisions of the Statutes, the special rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may be varied or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of the class or with the sanction of a Special Resolution passed at a separate General Meeting of the holders of the shares of the class (but not otherwise) and may be so varied or abrogated either whilst the Company is a going concern or during or in contemplation of a winding-up. To every such separate General Meeting all the provisions of this Constitution relating to General Meetings of the Company and to the proceedings thereat shall mutatis mutandis apply, except that the necessary quorum shall be two persons at least holding or representing by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorised representative one-third of the issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorised representative may demand a poll and that every such holder shall on a poll have one vote for every share of the class held by him, Provided always that:

Variation of rights

       

(a)

 

where the necessary majority for such a Special Resolution is not obtained at such General Meeting, consent in writing if obtained from the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of the class concerned within two months of such General Meeting shall be as valid and effectual as a Special Resolution carried at such General Meeting; or

 
       

(b)

 

where all the issued shares of the class are held by one person, the necessary quorum shall be one person and such holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorised representative may demand a poll.

 
   

The foregoing provisions of this article shall apply to the variation or abrogation of the special rights attached to some only of the shares of any class as if each group of shares of the class differently treated formed a separate class the special rights whereof are to be varied.

 

10.

 

The special rights attached to any class of shares having preferential rights shall unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue thereof be deemed to be varied by the issue of further shares ranking equally therewith.

ALTERATION OF SHARE CAPITAL

 

11.

 

(A)

 

Subject to any direction to the contrary that may be given by the Company in General Meeting, all new shares shall, before issue, be offered to such persons who as at the date of the offer are entitled to receive notices from the Company of General Meetings in proportion, as nearly as the circumstances admit, to the number of the existing shares to which they are entitled. The offer shall be made by notice specifying the number of shares offered, and limiting a time within which the offer, if not accepted, will be deemed to be declined, and, after the expiration of that time, or on the receipt of an intimation from the person to whom the offer is made that he declines to accept the shares offered, the Directors may dispose of those shares in such manner as they think most beneficial to the Company. The Directors may likewise so dispose of any new shares which (by reason of the ratio which the new shares bear to shares held by persons entitled to an offer of new shares) cannot, in the opinion of the Directors, be conveniently offered under this article 11(A).

Offer of new shares to members

   

(B)

 

Except so far as otherwise provided by the conditions of issue or by this Constitution, all new shares shall be subject to the provisions of the Statutes and of this Constitution with reference to allotments, payment of calls, liens, transfers, transmissions, forfeiture and otherwise.

New shares subject to the Statutes and this Constitution

12.

 

(A)

 

The Company may by Special Resolution:

Power to consolidate, subdivide and redenominate shares

       

(a)

 

consolidate and divide all or any of its shares;

       

(b)

 

subdivide its shares, or any of them (subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the Statutes and this Constitution), and so that the resolution whereby any share is subdivided may determine that, as between the holders of the shares resulting from such subdivision, one or more of the shares may, as compared with the others, have any such preferred, deferred or other special rights, or be subject to any such restrictions, as the Company has power to attach to new shares;

       

(c)

 

subject to the provisions of this Constitution and the Statutes, convert its share capital or any class of shares from one currency to another currency; and

       

(d)

 

cancel the number of shares which at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person or which have been forfeited, and diminish the amount of its share capital by the number of the shares so cancelled.

   

(B) 

 

The Company may by Special Resolution, subject to and in accordance with the Statutes, convert one class of shares into another class of shares, except where conversion of Class B Preference Shares to Ordinary Shares is required under Article 8A(A)(d). In such cases, conversion shall occur in accordance with the conditions specified therein.

Power to reduce capital

   

(B)

 

The Company may, subject to and in accordance with the Act, purchase or otherwise acquire its issued shares on such terms and in such manner as the Company may from time to time think fit. If required by the Act, any share which is so purchased or acquired by the Company shall, unless held in treasury in accordance with the Act, be deemed to be cancelled immediately on purchase or acquisition by the Company. On the cancellation of any share as aforesaid, the rights and privileges attached to that share shall expire. In any other instance, the Company may hold or deal with any such share which is so purchased or acquired by it in such manner as may be permitted by, and in accordance with, the Act. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, upon cancellation of any share purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company pursuant to this Constitution, the number of issued shares of the Company shall be diminished by the number of the shares so cancelled, and, where any such cancelled share was purchased or acquired out of the capital of the Company, the amount of share capital of the Company shall be reduced accordingly.

Power to repurchase shares

   

(C)

 

The Company shall not exercise any right in respect of treasury shares other than as provided by the Act. Subject thereto, the Company may hold or deal with its treasury shares in the manner authorised by, or prescribed pursuant to, the Act.

Treasury shares

   

SHARES

 

14.

 

Except as required by law, no person shall be recognised by the Company as holding any share upon any trust, and the Company shall not be bound by or compelled in any way to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share, or any interest in any fractional part of a share, or (except only as by this Constitution or by law otherwise provided) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder thereof.

Absolute owner of shares

15.

 

Without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any shares or class of shares for the time being issued, any share in the Company may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special, limited or conditional rights, or subject to such restrictions, whether as regards dividend, return of capital, voting or otherwise, or which do not confer voting rights, as the Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution or, if required by the Statutes, by Special Resolution determine (or, in the absence of any such determination, but subject to the Statutes, as the Directors may determine) and subject to the provisions of the Statutes, the Company may issue preference shares which are, or at the option of the Company are, liable to be redeemed.

Rights and privileges of new shares

16.

 

Subject to the provisions of this Constitution and of the Statutes relating to authority, pre-emption rights and otherwise and of any resolution of the Company in General Meeting passed pursuant thereto, all new shares shall be at the disposal of the Directors and they may allot (with or without conferring a right of renunciation), grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times and on such terms as they think proper.

Power of Directors to issue shares

17.

 

The Company may pay commissions or brokerage on any issue of shares at such rate or amount and in such manner as the Directors may deem fit. Such commissions or brokerage may be satisfied by the payment of cash or the allotment of fully or partly paid shares or partly in one way and partly in the other.

Power to pay commission and brokerage

8

18.

 

If by the conditions of allotment of any shares the whole or any part of the amount of the issue price thereof shall be payable by instalments, every such instalment shall, when due, be paid to the Company by the person who for the time being shall be the registered holder of the share or his personal representatives, but this article shall not affect the liability of any allottee who may have agreed to pay the same.

Payment of instalments

   

SHARE CERTIFICATES

 

19.

 

Every share certificate shall be issued in accordance with the requirements of the Act and be under the Seal or signed in the manner set out in the Act. No certificate shall be issued representing shares of more than one class.

Share certificates

20.

 

In the case of a share registered jointly in the names of several persons, the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate therefor and delivery of a certificate for such share to any one of the registered joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all such holders.

Issue of certificate to joint holders

21.

 

Every person whose name is entered as a member in the Register of Members shall be entitled to receive, in accordance with the Act, a certificate for all his shares of any one class or several certificates in reasonable denominations each for a part of the shares so allotted or transferred. Where such a member transfers part only of the shares comprised in a certificate or requires the Company to cancel any certificate or certificates and issue new certificates for the purpose of sub-dividing his holding in a different manner, the old certificate or certificates shall be cancelled and a new certificate or certificates for the balance of such shares issued in lieu thereof and such member shall pay a maximum fee of S$2 for each new certificate or such other fee as the Directors may from time to time determine.

Entitlement to certificate

22.

 

Subject to the provisions of the Statutes, if any share certificate shall be defaced, worn out, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company shall issue a new certificate in lieu thereof on such evidence being produced and a letter of indemnity (if required) being given by the member, transferee, person entitled or purchaser, as the Directors of the Company shall require, and (in case of defacement or wearing out) on delivery up of the old certificate and in any case on payment of a fee not exceeding S$2 as the Directors may from time to time require. In the case of destruction, loss or theft, a member or person entitled to whom such new certificate is given shall also bear the loss and pay to the Company all expenses incidental to the investigations by the Company of the evidence of such destruction or loss.

Replacement share certificates

The shares of the Company in each class shall rank pari passu.

Pari passu ranking of shares

   

CALLS ON SHARES

 

23.

 

The Directors may from time to time make calls upon the members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares but subject always to the terms of issue of such shares. A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising the call was passed and may be made payable by instalments.

Calls on shares

24.

 

Each member shall (subject to receiving at least 14 days’ notice specifying the time or times and place of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times and place so specified the amount called on his shares. The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls, instalments and interest due in respect thereof. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine.

Notice of calls

9

25.

 

If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the sum from the day appointed for payment thereof to the time of actual payment at such rate (not exceeding 10 per cent. per annum) as the Directors may determine but the Directors shall be at liberty in any case or cases to waive payment of such interest wholly or in part.

Interest on unpaid calls

26.

 

Any sum which by the terms of issue of a share becomes payable upon allotment or at any fixed date shall for all the purposes of this Constitution be deemed to be a call duly made and payable on the date on which by the terms of issue the same becomes payable. In case of non-payment all the relevant provisions of this Constitution as to payment of interest and expenses, forfeiture or otherwise shall apply as if such sum had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

When calls made and payable

27.

 

The Directors may on the issue of shares differentiate between the holders as to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment.

Power of Directors to differentiate

28.

 

The Directors may if they think fit receive from any member willing to advance the same, all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid upon the shares held by him and such payment in advance of calls shall extinguish pro tanto the liability upon the shares in respect of which it is made and upon the money so received (until and to the extent that the same would but for such advance become payable) the Company may pay interest at such rate not exceeding (unless the Company in General Meeting shall otherwise direct) eight per cent. per annum as the member paying such sum and the Directors may agree.

Payment of calls in advance

   

FORFEITURE AND LIEN

 

29.

 

If a member fails to pay in full any call or instalment of a call on the due date for payment thereof, the Directors may at any time thereafter serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued thereon and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment.

Notice requiring payment of calls

30.

 

The notice shall name a further day (not being less than 14 days from the date of service of the notice) on or before which and the place where the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of non-payment in accordance therewith the shares on which the call has been made will be liable to be forfeited.

Notice to state place and time of payment

31.

 

If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any share in respect of which such notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before payment of all calls and interest and expenses due in respect thereof has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect. Such forfeiture shall include all dividends declared in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before forfeiture. The Directors may accept a surrender of any share liable to be forfeited hereunder.

Forfeiture on non-compliance with notice

32.

 

A share so forfeited or surrendered shall become the property of the Company and may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of either to the person who was before such forfeiture or surrender the holder thereof or entitled thereto or to any other person upon such terms and in such manner as the Directors shall think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture or surrender may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. The Directors may, if necessary, authorise some person to transfer or effect the transfer of a forfeited or surrendered share to any such other person as aforesaid.

Sale of forfeited shares

10

33.

 

A member whose shares have been forfeited or surrendered shall cease to be a member in respect of the shares but shall notwithstanding the forfeiture or surrender remain liable to pay to the Company all moneys which at the date of forfeiture or surrender were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares with interest thereon at eight per cent. per annum (or such lower rate as the Directors may determine) from the date of forfeiture or surrender until payment and the Directors may at their absolute discretion enforce payment without any allowance for the value of the shares at the time of forfeiture or surrender or waive payment in whole or in part.

Rights and liabilities of members whose shares have been forfeited

34.

 

The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share
(not being a fully paid share) and dividends from time to time declared or payable in respect of such shares. Such lien shall be restricted to unpaid calls and instalments (together with any interest and expenses thereon) upon the specific shares in respect of which such moneys are due and unpaid, and to such amounts as the Company may be called upon by law to pay in respect of the shares of the member or deceased member. The Directors may waive any lien which has arisen and may resolve that any share shall for some limited period be exempt wholly or partially from the provisions of this article.

Company to have paramount lien

35.

 

The Company may sell in such manner as the Directors think fit any share on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless some sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable nor until the expiration of 14 days after a notice in writing stating and demanding payment of the sum presently payable and giving notice of intention to sell in default shall have been given to the holder for the time being of the share or the person entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

Sale of shares subject to lien

36.

 

The net proceeds of such sale after payment of the costs of such sale shall be applied in or towards payment or satisfaction of the debts or liabilities and any residue shall be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the time of the sale. For the purpose of giving effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise some person to transfer or effect the transfer of the shares sold to the purchaser.

Application of sale proceeds

37.

 

A statutory declaration in writing that the declarant is a Director or the Secretary of the Company and that a share has been duly forfeited or surrendered or sold to satisfy a lien of the Company on a date stated in the declaration shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share. Such declaration and the receipt of the Company for the consideration (if any) given for the share on the sale, re-allotment or disposal thereof together (where the same be required) with the share certificate delivered to a purchaser or allottee thereof shall (subject to the execution of a transfer if the same be required) constitute good title to the share and the share shall be registered in the name of the person to whom the share is sold, re-allotted or disposed of. Such person shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money (if any) nor shall his title to the share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating to the forfeiture, surrender, sale, re-allotment or disposal of the share.

Title to forfeited or surrendered shares

   

RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER OF SHARES

 

38.

 

Subject to the Act and the restrictions set out in this Constitution, any member may transfer all or any of his shares, but every transfer must be in writing and in the usual or common form, or in any other form which the Directors may approve. The instrument of transfer of a share shall be signed both by the transferor and by the transferee, and by the witness or witnesses thereto. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register of Members in respect thereof. Shares of different classes shall not be comprised in the same instrument of transfer.

Survivor or legal personal representatives of deceased member

45.

 

Subject to compliance with Article 8A(A)(d), any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member may (subject as hereinafter provided) upon producing such evidence as the Directors may reasonably require to show his legal title to the share either be registered himself as holder of the share upon giving to the Company notice in writing of his desire or transfer such share to some other person. If the person so becoming entitled elects to be registered himself, he shall deliver or send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating that he so elects. If he elects to have another person registered, he shall testify his election by executing to that person a transfer of the share. All the limitations, restrictions and provisions of this Constitution relating to the right to transfer and the registration of transfers of shares shall be applicable to any such notice or transfer as aforesaid as if the death or bankruptcy of the member had not occurred and the notice or transfer were a transfer signed by that member.

Transmission of shares

46.

 

Except as otherwise provided by or in accordance with this Constitution, a person becoming entitled to a share pursuant to article 44 or article 45 shall (upon supplying to the Company such evidence as the Directors may reasonably require to show his title to the share) be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages, and to the same rights (whether in relation to meetings of the Company, or to voting or otherwise) as if he were the member in respect of the share except that he shall not be entitled in respect thereof (except with the authority of the Directors) to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company until he shall have been registered as a member in the Register of Members in respect of the share.

Rights of person on transmission of shares

47.
