To every such separate general meeting the provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings shall mutatis mutandis apply, but so that the necessary quorum shall be two persons at least holding or representing by proxy one-third of the issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

Where a member transfers part only of the shares comprised in a certificate, one new certificate for the balance of such shares shall be issued in lieu of the old certificate without charge. In the case of a share held jointly by several persons the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate and delivery thereof to one of several joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all such holders.

13. | Form of share certificate

Every certificate of title to shares shall be issued under the seal in such form as the Directors shall from time to time prescribe, shall bear the autographic or facsimile signatures of either two Directors or one Director and the Secretary or some other person appointed by the Directors and shall specify the number and class of shares to which it relates and the amounts paid and the amounts (if any) unpaid thereon. Every certificate of title to debentures shall bear the autographic or facsimile signature of a Director.

14. | Replacement of certificate

Subject to the provisions of the Act, if any share certificate shall be defaced, worn out, destroyed, lost or stolen, it may be renewed on such evidence being produced and such letter of indemnity (if any) being given as the Directors of the Company may require, and in the case of defacement or wearing out on delivery of the old certificate and in any case on payment of such sum not exceeding $2.00 as the Directors may from time to time require. In the case of the certificate being destroyed, lost or stolen a shareholder or person entitled to whom such renewed 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.
10

JOINT HOLDERS OF SHARES

15. | Rights and liabilities of joint holders

Where two or more persons are registered as the holders of any share they shall be deemed to hold the same as joint tenants with benefit of survivorship subject to the following provisions:

| (a) | the Company shall not be bound to register more than three persons as the holders of any share, except in the case of executors or trustees of a deceased shareholder;

| (b) | the joint holders of a share shall be liable severally as well as jointly in respect of all payments which ought to be made in respect of such share;

| (c) | on the death of any one of such joint holders the survivor or survivors shall be the only person or persons recognised by the Company as having any title to such share but the Directors may require such evidence of death as they may deem fit;

| (d) | any one of such joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividend payable to such joint holders; and

| (e) | only the person whose name stands first in the Register as one of the joint holders of any share shall be entitled to delivery of the certificate relating to such share or to receive notices from the Company and any notice given to such person shall be deemed notice to all the joint holders.

16. | Company’s lien

The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on shares registered in the name of a member (whether fully paid or not) and on dividends from time to time declared in respect of such shares for all moneys due to the Company from him or his estate either alone or jointly with any other person whether a member or not and whether such moneys are presently payable or not.
11

17. | Sale of shares subject to lien

The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any shares on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless a 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 such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, has been given to the registered holder for the time being of the share, or the person entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

18. | Rights of purchaser of such shares

To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise some person to transfer the shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the shares comprised in any such transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale.

19. | Application of proceeds of such sale

The proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and accrued interest and expenses, and the residue, if any, shall be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the date of the sales, or, his executors, administrators or assignees or as he may direct.
CALLS ON SHARES

20. | Calls on shares

The Directors may from time to time make calls upon the members in respect of any money unpaid on their shares and not by the conditions of allotment thereof made payable at fixed times, provided that no call shall be payable at less than one month from the date fixed for the payment of the last preceding call, and 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. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine.
12

21. | Time when made

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 required to be paid by installments.

22. | Interest on unpaid calls

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 8 per cent per annum as the Directors may determine, but the Directors shall be at liberty to waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

23. | Sum due on allotment

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

24. | Rights of member suspended until calls are duly paid

No member shall be entitled to receive any dividend or to be present or vote at any meeting or upon a poll, or to exercise any privilege as a member until he shall have paid all calls for the time being due and payable on every share held by him, whether alone or jointly with any other person, together with interest and expenses (if any).

25. | Power to differentiate

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.
13

26. | Payment in advance of calls

The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same all or any part of the money uncalled and unpaid upon any shares held by him, and upon all or any part of the money so advanced may (until the same would, but for the advance, become payable) pay interest at such rate not exceeding (unless the Company in general meeting shall otherwise direct) 8 per cent per annum as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the member paying the sum in advance. Capital paid on shares in advance of calls shall not, whilst carrying interest, confer a right to participate in profits.
TRANSFER OF SHARES

27. | Form of transfer

Subject to these Articles any member may transfer all or any of his shares. Every transfer must be in writing and in the usual form or in any form approved by the Directors. The instrument of transfer of a share shall be signed both by the transferor and by the transferee and be witnessed. 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.

28. | Retention of transfers

All instruments of transfer which shall be registered shall be retained by the Company but any instrument of transfer which the Directors may refuse to register shall (except in any case of fraud) be returned to the party presenting the same.
14

29. | Right to decline to accept transfer

The Directors may decline to accept any instrument of transfer unless:-

| (a) | such fee not exceeding $2.00 as the Directors may from time to time determine is paid to the Company in respect thereof;

| (b) | the instrument of transfer is duly stamped in accordance with any law for the time being in force relating to stamp duty;

| (c) | the instrument of transfer is deposited at the office or at such other place (if any) as the Directors may appoint accompanied by a certificate of payment of stamp duty (if any), the certificates of the shares to which the transfer relates and such other evidence as the Directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer and, if the instrument of transfer is executed by some other person on his behalf, the authority of the person so to do; and

| (d) | such fee not exceeding $2.00 as the Directors may from time to time determine is paid to the Company in respect of the registration of any probate, letters of administration, certificate of marriage or death, power of attorney or any document relating to or affecting the title to the shares.

30. | Infant, bankrupt or person of unsound mind

No share shall in any circumstances be transferred to any infant or bankrupt or person of unsound mind.

31. | Pre-emption rights

| (1) | Unless otherwise agreed by the holders of all the shares for the time being issued, any person proposing to transfer a share (hereinafter called “the proposing transferor”) shall give notice in writing (hereinafter called “a transfer notice”) to the Company that he desires to transfer the same. Such notice shall specify the sum he fixes as the fair value and shall constitute the Company his agent for the sale of the share to the other members in proportion to their shareholding in the Company (hereinafter called “the purchasing member”) at the price so fixed or at the option of the purchasing member at the fair value to be fixed by the auditors of the Company in accordance with Article 31(4) hereof.

15

| (2) | A transfer notice may include several shares and in such case shall operate as if it were a separate notice in respect of each. A transfer notice shall not be revocable except with the sanction of the Directors.

| (3) | If the Company shall within 28 days after being served with a transfer notice find a purchasing member and shall give notice thereof to the proposing transferor, he shall be bound upon payment of the fair value as fixed in accordance with paragraph (1) or (4) of this Article 31 to transfer the share to the purchasing member.

| (4) | In case any difference arises between the proposing transferor and the purchasing member as to the fair value of a share, the auditors shall on the application of either party certify in writing the sum which in their opinion is the fair value and such sum shall be deemed to be the fair value and in so certifying the auditors shall be considered to be acting as experts and not as arbitrators and accordingly the Arbitration Act (Cap. 10) shall not apply. The interval between the date of the application to the auditors and the date of their certificate shall not be taken into consideration in calculating the period referred to in the preceding paragraph.

| (5) | If in any case the proposing transferor after having become bound as aforesaid makes default in transferring the share, the Company may receive the purchase money and the proposing transferor shall be deemed to have appointed any one Director or the Secretary of the Company as his agent to execute a transfer of the share to the purchasing member, and upon the execution of such transfer the Company shall hold the purchase money in trust for the proposing transferor. The receipt of the Company for the purchase money shall be a good discharge to the purchasing member, and after his name has been entered in the Register of Members in purported exercise of the aforesaid power the validity of the proceedings shall not be questioned by any person.

| (6) | If the Company shall not within the period referred to in paragraph (3) of this Article 31 find a purchasing member and give notice in the manner aforesaid the proposing transferor shall at any time within three months afterwards be at liberty, subject to Article 29 hereof, to sell and transfer the share (or where there are more shares than one, those not placed) to any person and at a price which is not less than that specified by him in the transfer notice.

16

32. | Directors’ right to refuse transfer of shares

The Directors may refuse to register the transfer of any share:-

| (a) | if the share has not been fully paid or is subject to a lien; or

| (b) | if the provisions of these Articles relating to the transfer of shares have not been compiled with.

33. | Directors to give reasons for refusal to transfer

If the Directors shall refuse to register the transfer of any share they shall within one month of the date on which the application for transfer was made serve on the transferor and transferee a notice in writing stating the reasons justifying the refusal to transfer and a notice of refusal as required by the Act.

34. | Register of Transfers

The Company shall maintain a Register of Transfers which shall be kept under the control of the Directors, and in which shall be entered the particulars of every transfer of shares. The Register of Transfers may be closed at such times and for such periods as the Directors may from time to time determine provided always that it shall not be closed for more than 30 days in the aggregate in any year.
TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

35. | Transmission on death

In case of the death of a member the survivor or survivors where the deceased was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased where he was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognized by the Company as having any title to his interest in the shares; but nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by him with other persons.

36. | Persons becoming entitled on death or bankruptcy of a member may be registered

Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member may, upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time properly be required by the Directors and subject as hereinafter provided, elect either to be registered himself as holder of the share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the transferee thereof, but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the share by that member before his death or bankruptcy.
17

37. | Rights of persons becoming entitled or death or bankruptcy of member

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 these Articles relating to the right to transfer and the registration of transfers of shares shall be applicable to any such notice or 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.

38. | Rights of unregistered executors and trustees

Where the registered holder of any share dies or becomes bankrupt his personal representative or the assignee of his estate, as the case may be, shall upon the production of such evidence as may from time to time be properly required by the Directors in that behalf, 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 the registered holder would have been entitled to if he had not died or become bankrupt; and where two or more persons are jointly entitled to any share in consequence of the death of the registered holder they shall, for the purposed of these Articles be deemed to be joint holders of the share.
FORFEITURE OF SHARES
39. Notice requiring payments of calls
If a member fails to pay any call or installment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of the call or installment remains unpaid serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or installment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued.
40. Notice to state time and place
The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of service of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.
18

41. | Forfeiture on non-compliance with notice

If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not compiled with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice 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 shares and not actually paid before the forfeiture.

42. | Sale or disposition of forfeited shares

A forfeited share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit.

43. | Rights and liabilities of persons whose shares have been forfeited

A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all money which, at the date of forfeiture, was payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares (together with interest at the rate of 8 per cent per annum from the date of forfeiture on the money for the time being unpaid if the Directors think fit to enforce payment of such interest), but his liability shall cease if and when the Company receives payment in full of all such money in respect of the shares.

44. | Title to shares forfeited

A statutory declaration in writing that the declarant is a Director or the Secretary of the Company, and that a share in the Company has been duly forfeited 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.

45. | Powers of Company on disposition of forfeited shares

Any share so forfeited shall be deemed to be the property of the Company. The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for a forfeited share on any sale or disposition thereof and may execute a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the share is sold or disposed of and he shall thereupon be registered as the holder of the share, and 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 in reference to the forfeiture, sale, or disposal of the share.
19

46. | Articles as to forfeiture applicable to non-payment on shares

The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.
CONVERSION OF SHARES INTO STOCK

47. | Power to convert into stock

The Company may by ordinary resolution passed at a general meeting convert any paid-up shares into stock and reconvert any stock into paid-up shares.

48. | Transfer of stock

The holders of stock may transfer the same or any part thereof in the same manner and subject to the same Articles as the shares from which the stock arose might previously to conversion have been transferred or as near thereto as circumstances admit; but the Directors may from time to time fix the minimum amount of stock transferable and restrict or forbid the transfer of fractions of that minimum.

49. | Rights of stockholders

The holders of stock shall according to the number of the stock units held by them have the same rights, privileges and advantages as regards dividends, voting at meetings of the Company and other matters as if they held the shares from which the stock arose, but no such privilege or advantage (except participation in the dividends and profits of the Company and in the assets on winding up) shall be conferred by any such aliquot part of stock which would not if existing in shares have conferred that privilege or advantage.

50. | Interpretation

Such of the Articles of the Company as are applicable to paid-up shares shall apply to stock, and the words “share” and “shareholder” therein shall include “stock” and “stockholder”.

| (1) | The Directors may, with the sanction of an ordinary resolution of the Company issue bonus shares for which no consideration is payable to the Company, to the persons registered as holders of shares at the close of business on:

| (a) | the date of the ordinary resolution (or such other date as may be specified therein or determined as therein provided); or

| (b) | such other date as may be determined by the Directors, in proportion to their then holdings of shares; and

in proportion to their then holdings of shares and applying such sum on their behalf in paying up in full new shares (or, subject to any special rights previously conferred on any shares or class of shares for the time being issued) for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid up to and amongst them as bonus shares in the proportion aforesaid.

| (2) | In addition and without prejudice to the powers provided for by Article 129(1), the Directors shall have power to issue shares for which no consideration is payable and to apply such profits or other moneys in paying up in full, in each case on terms that such shares shall, upon issue, be held by or for the benefit of participants of any share incentive or option scheme or plan implemented by the Company and approved by shareholders in general meeting and on such terms as the Directors shall think fit.

130. | Implementation of resolution

The Directors may do all acts and things considered necessary or expedient to give effect to any such bonus issue under Article 129(1), with full power to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit for any fractional entitlements which would arise on the basis aforesaid (including provisions whereby fractional entitlements are disregarded or the benefit thereof accrues to the Company rather than to the members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all the members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for any such bonus issue and matters incidental thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all concerned.

NOTICES

131. | Service of notices

| (1) | A notice or document (including without limitations a share certificate, any accounts, balance sheet or report) may be given by the Company to any member either personally or by sending it by post to him at his registered address, or such other address supplied by him to the Company or such permitted alternative form for the giving of notices to him. Any notice to be sent to a member at an address outside Singapore shall be sent by airmail or such permitted alternative form. Where a notice is sent by post, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, prepaying and posting a letter containing the notice, and to have been effected in the case of a notice of a meeting on the day after the date of its posting, and in any other case at the time at which the letter would be delivered in the ordinary course of post. Any notice given, sent or served using permitted alternative form shall be deemed to have been duly given, sent or served upon transmission of the electronic communication to the current address of such person or as otherwise provided under the Act and/or other applicable regulations or procedures.

| (2) | Any notice on behalf of the Company or of the Directors shall be deemed effectual if it purports to bear the signature of the Secretary or other duly authorized officer of the Company, whether such signature is printed, written or electronically signed.

132. | Service of notices in respect of joint holders

A notice may be given by the Company to the joint holders of a share by giving the notice to the joint holder first named in the Register of Members in respect of the share.

133. | Service of notices after death or bankruptcy of a member

A notice may be given by the Company to the persons entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member by sending it through the post in a prepaid letter addressed to them by name, or by the title of representatives of the deceased, or assignee of the bankrupt, or by any like description, at the address, if any, supplied for the purpose by the persons claiming to be so entitled, or (until such an address has been so supplied) by giving the notice in any manner in which the same might have been given if the death or bankruptcy had not occurred.

WINDING UP

134. | Distribution of surplus assets

If the Company shall be wound up, subject to due provision being made satisfying the claims of any holders of shares having attached thereto any special rights in regard to the repayment of capital, the surplus assets shall be applied in repayment of the capital paid up or credited as paid up on the shares at the commencement of the winding up. If the surplus assets shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up or credited as paid up on the shares, such assets shall be distributed (as nearly as practicable) in proportion to the capital paid up or credited as paid up on the shares at the commencement of the winding up.

135. | Distribution of assets in specie

If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidators may, with the sanction of a special resolution, divide among the members in specie any part of the assets of the Company and any such division may be otherwise than in accordance with the existing rights of the members, but so that if any division is resolved or otherwise than in accordance with such rights, the members shall have the same right of dissent and consequential rights as if such resolution were a special resolution passed pursuant to Section 306 of the Act. A special resolution sanctioning a transfer or sale to another company duly passed pursuant to the said Section may in like manner authorise the distribution of any shares or other consideration receivable by the liquidators amongst the members otherwise than in accordance wit their existing rights; and any such determination shall be binding upon all the members subject to the right of dissent and consequential rights conferred by the said Section.

136. | Service of notice by liquidator

In the event of a winding up of the Company every member of the Company who is not for the time being in Singapore shall be bound, within 14 days after the passing of an effective resolution to wind up the Company voluntarily, or within the like period after the making of an order for the winding up of the Company, to serve notice in writing on the Company appointing some householder in Singapore upon whom all summonses, notices, processes, orders and judgments in relation to or under the winding up of the Company may be served, and in default of such nomination the liquidator of the Company shall be at liberty on behalf of such member to appoint some such person, and service upon any such appointee shall be deemed to be a good personal service on such member for all purposes, and where the liquidator makes any such appointment he shall, with all convenient speed, give notice thereof to such member by a registered letter sent through the post and addressed to such member at his address as appearing in the Register, and such notice shall be deemed to be served on the day following that on which the letter is posted

INDEMNITY

137. | Indemnity of Directors and officers

Every Director, Managing Director, agent, auditor, Secretary and other officer for the time being of the Company shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability incurred by him in defending any proceedings whether civil or criminal in which judgment is given in his favour or in which he is acquitted or in connection with any application under Section 391 of the Act in which relief is granted to him by the Court in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust.
