Proof of compliance must be submitted on one of the following forms designated by the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board. An XXXXX form is not acceptable proof of New York State workers’ compensation or disability benefits insurance coverage. Proof of Compliance with Workers’ Compensation Coverage Requirements:

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL The Board considers that the online media advertising agency business operated by Xxxx Media is not the core business that the Group is focusing on. The disposal of Xxxx Media will allow the Group to concentrate its financial and management resources on its core business, hence would effectively reduce the Group’s operating risks outside its main business. The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors but excluding Xx. Xxx who has abstained from voting in the Board), are of the view that the terms of the Equity Transfer Agreement are fair and reasonable and the transaction contemplated thereunder is on normal commercial terms or better and is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE DISPOSAL AND USE OF PROCEEDS Upon completion of the Disposal, Xxxx Media will cease to be a subsidiary of the Company and the Group will cease to have any interest in Xxxx Media.

Proof of Compliance with Disability Benefits Coverage Requirements In order to provide proof of compliance with the requirements of the Workers’ Compensation Law pertaining to disability benefits, a contractor shall:
REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITION The principal activities of the Group are investment holding, manufacturing and trading of printed circuit boards (the “Printed Circuit Boards Business”), trading of petroleum and energy products and related business (the “Petroleum and Energy Business”), and vessel chartering. In view of the ongoing trade war between the PRC and the US and the recent global coronavirus outbreak, there have been adverse impacts on the Printed Circuit Boards Business and the Petroleum and Energy Business. The Board expects that the Petroleum and Energy Business may be further affected due to (i) the increase of volatility of the oil price; (ii) the intensified competition in the oil trading business arising from slowing down of the international trade and the demand for oil and oil products; (iii) tightening of bank credits available to the Group; and (iv) ongoing legal proceedings against the Company. Therefore, the Group considers to diversify its business into other business sectors. The Acquisition is a good opportunity for the Group to diversify its business stream and mitigate the risks arising from the international trade. The Target Group’s business in the manufacturing and trading of printing and packaging products is based in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and its clients are mainly from Hong Kong and the PRC. Over the years, with implementation of a series of operational strategies, including focusing more on sales orders for high-quality printing and packaging products with higher profit margin, stringent cost control measures and upgrading the manufacturing base by investing in new and advanced printing and packaging equipment, the Target Group has established its own brand and a long-term loyalty client base, which contributes to more than 50% of the Target Group’s revenue. Furthermore, in negotiating the Acquisition, the Vendor agreed to provide profit guarantees to the Purchaser as set out in the section headed “Profit guarantees and compensation” above, which provides a safeguard for the Company to closely monitor the development of the Target Group. The management of the Company believes that the printing and packaging business of the Target Group will have a synergy effect on the Group’s current business. With the new business sector, the Company would be able to provide printing and packaging, brand labelling and other logistics services to its existing customers. As the Group has an existing vessel chartering business, the management of the Company will further explore the possibility of transforming the existing vessels or hiring vessels to shipping cargoes such that the Group could further use its own resources to extend its business into logistics services. With the view to strengthen the Group’s long-term competitiveness and value, the Group plans to combine the high-quality printing business with intellectual property marketing to achieve a total marketing solution model to provide creative solution to its clients. In this way, the printing and packaging business is able to create a vertically integrated business to include selecting/designing intellectual property products which fit brand image, licensing from intellectual property holder and providing printed marketing materials and packages, etc. Currently, the Group is in the process of hiring staff who are experienced in marketing intellectual property products such as cartoon and movie images. The Consideration, which would be partially settled by the issue of Promissory Note, will not require substantial immediate cash outflow of the Group, therefore easing the financial burden of the Company. In the view of all above, the Board (including the independent non-executive Directors) considers that the Acquisition is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
Integration with Other Disability Income In the event a totally disabled employee is entitled to any other income as a result of the same accident, sickness, mental or nervous disorder that caused him/her to be eligible to receive benefits from this Plan, the benefits from this Plan will be reduced by one hundred percent (100%) of such other disability income. Other disability income shall include, but not necessarily be limited to:
REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTION The Group is principally engaged in the development, sale, lease, investment and management of properties in the PRC and the sales of electronic and electrical related products and sales of building related materials and equipment. Each of the Merchants Nanjing and Nanjing Changmao would benefit from the cooperation in order to exert their strengths, grasp market opportunities and enhance their investment portfolio in the property market in the PRC, which would improve the capital efficiency and effectiveness, reduce the investment risks and thus a greater return could be created for the Shareholders. The terms of the Cooperation Agreement have been arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the parties. The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) have confirmed that the Acquisition and the terms of the Cooperation Agreement (including the financing and profit distribution arrangements) and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
