  • REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION The New Transportation Contract has been entered into for the purpose of transportation. The Company considers that the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contract are for the benefit of the Company, as the services provided are required in the production process of the Group and the service provider offered a competitive price and are capable of meeting the Group’s transportation needs. The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the New Transportation Contract is on normal commercial terms which are fair and reasonable and the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contract are in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. None of the Directors has a material interest in the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contract, save for Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, who is general director of JSC EuroSibEnergo, a company which is owned by En+, and deputy general director — financial director of En+; and Mr. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, who is the first deputy chief executive officer for technical policy and executive officer of International limited liability company En+ Holding, and deputy CEO — executive officer of En+, being the holding company of KraMZ-Auto LLC.

  • REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTIONS Jiaogong Maintenance and Zhejiang Shunchang fully understand business and operating needs of LongLiLiLong Co, and maintain effective communication to provide more quality services to LongLiLiLong Co. Both Jiaogong Maintenance and Zhejiang Shunchang has the relevant qualifications and experience to provide the Maintenance Services to LongLiLiLong Co. In addition, LongLiLiLong Co went through a tender process and obtained the relevant quotations from other independent service providers to select the service provider of the Maintenance Services. Zhejiang Shunchang and Jiaogong Maintenance finally won the respective tenders. The transactions contemplated under the Agreements are and will be conducted in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, and the consideration paid by LongLiLiLong Co to Jiaogong Maintenance and Zhejiang Shunchang, respectively, will not be higher than the average market price and will not be less favourable than those provided by other independent service providers to LongLiLiLong Co for similar services. Given the above, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the terms of the Agreements are on normal commercial terms, in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. As at the date of this announcement, LongLiLiLong Co is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As at the date of this announcement, Communications Group holds approximately 67% of the issued share capital of the Company. By virtue of this shareholding interest, Communications Group is a controlling shareholder (as defined under the Listing Rules) of the Company. As at the date of this announcement, each of Jiaogong Maintenance and Zhejiang Shunchang is an indirect subsidiary of Communications Group. Therefore, Zhejiang Shunchang and Jiaogong Maintenance are connected persons of the Company and as a result, the respective transactions contemplated under the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements constitute continuing connected transactions for the Company under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Pursuant to Rule 14A.81 to Rule 14A.83 of the Listing Rules, the respective transactions contemplated under the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements are required to be aggregated with the respective transactions contemplated under the Previous Road Maintenance Agreements which were continuing connected transactions entered into with the same connected persons. As the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the aggregated annual cap for transactions contemplated under the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements and the Previous Road Maintenance Agreements are more than 0.1% but less than 5%, the transactions contemplated under the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements and the Previous Road Maintenance Agreements will be subject to the reporting, announcement and annual review requirements but exempt from the independent Shareholders’ approval requirement under Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules. Xx. Xx Xxxxxxx, Xx. Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xx. Xxxx Xxxxxxx and Mr. Xxx Xx, being Directors, are deemed to have material interests in the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements as they are also employed by the Communications Group as at the date of Board meeting on April 30, 2021 and have abstained from voting on the relevant Board resolutions. Other than those Directors mentioned above, none of the Directors have a material interest in the transactions contemplated under the Dedicated Road Maintenance Agreements, and none are required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolutions of the Board.

  • Exercise of Option and Provisions for Termination (a) Except as otherwise provided herein and subject to the right of cumulation provided herein, this option may be exercised, prior to the tenth anniversary date, as to not more than the following number of shares covered by this option during the respective periods set forth below: No shares from and after the date of grant and prior to the first anniversary date; shares from and after the first anniversary date and prior to the second anniversary date; shares from and after the second anniversary date and prior to the third anniversary date; shares from and after the third anniversary date and prior to the fourth anniversary date; shares from and after the fourth anniversary date and prior to the fifth anniversary date; and shares from and after the fifth anniversary date. The right of exercise provided herein shall be cumulative so that if the option is not exercised to the maximum extent permissible during any such period it shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, with respect to all shares not so purchased at any time during any subsequent period prior until the expiration or termination of this option. This option may not be exercised at any time after the tenth anniversary date. (b) Subject to the conditions hereof, this option shall be exercisable by the Employee giving written notice of exercise to the Company, specifying the number of shares to be purchased and the purchase price to be paid therefor and accompanied by payment in accordance with Section 3 hereof. Such exercise shall be effective upon receipt by the Treasurer of the Company of the written notice together with the required payment. The Employee shall be entitled to purchase less than the number of shares covered hereby, provided that no partial exercise of this option shall be for less than 10 whole shares. (c) If the Employee ceases to be employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries for any reason, including retirement but other than death, this option shall immediately terminate; provided, however, that any portion of this option which was otherwise exercisable on the date of termination of the Employee’s employment may be exercised within the three-month period following the date on which the Employee ceased to be so employed, but in no event after the tenth anniversary date. Any such exercise may be made only to the extent of the number of shares subject to this option which are purchasable upon the date of such termination of employment. If the Employee dies during such three-month period, this option shall be exercisable by the Employee’s personal representatives, heirs or legatees to the same extent and during the same period that the Employee could have exercised this option on the date of his or her death. (d) If the Employee dies while an employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, this option shall be exercisable, by the Employee’s personal representatives, heirs or legatees, to the same extent that the Employee could have exercised this option on the date of his or her death. This option or any unexercised portion hereof shall terminate unless so exercised prior to the earlier of the expiration of six months from the date of such death or the tenth anniversary date. (e) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, this option may not be exercised to the extent such an exercise would violate Section 422(d)(1) of the Code, which provides that the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted) of the Common Stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the Employee during any calendar year (under all of the plans of the Company, its parent, if any, or its subsidiaries, if any) shall not exceed $100,000.
