in accordance with applicable corporate law.
However, one director, Dr. Bielin Shi, had more votes withheld than were voted in their favour of their
appointments to the Board. As a result, in accordance with the Company's Majority Voting Policy (the
"Policy"), Dr. Shi has tendered his resignation from the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"),
effective upon acceptance by the Board. The Board will refer such resignations to the Corporate
Governance and Compensation Committee (the "Committee") for consideration on whether or not to
accept the resignations submitted by Dr. Shi. In accordance with the Policy, the Board shall accept such
resignation unless the Committee determines that there are exceptional circumstances relating to the
composition of the Board or the voting results that should delay the acceptance of such resignation or justify
rejecting such resignation. The Board will issue a news release with its decision.
At the Meeting, the unallocated options, rights or other entitlements issuable under Eastplats' Stock Option
Plan have been authorized for three further years and Davidson & Company LLP was also re-appointed as
auditors of Eastplats.
