DISTRIBUTION OF A CIRCULAR AND NOTICES OF GENERAL MEETINGS

DISTRIBUTION OF A CIRCULAR
Further to the announcement released on SENS on 2 March 2020, the board of directors of the Company
(“Board”) advises ordinary and preference shareholders (collectively “Security Holders”) that a circular
(“Circular”) will be distributed to the Company’s Security Holders, today, which sets out details relating to
the proposed amendments to the Memorandum of Incorporation (“MOI Amendments”).
The MOI Amendments, if approved, will result in an amendment to the terms of the Company’s various
classes of preference shares such that the preference shares will:
    •   become redeemable, partially or in full, solely at the discretion of the Board, having regard to the
        funds available to the Company, which will specifically be assessed by the Board on the occurrence
        of certain events;
    •   attract a zero coupon, with dividends to be paid solely at the discretion of the Board, and which
        dividends (if so declared) will not exceed 20% of any dividends declared by the Board to all Security
        Holders in relation to any particular financial year; and
    •   rank pari passu with all other classes of Preference Shares, but in priority to Ordinary Shares.

The Circular is available on the Company’s website: https://www.ecsponentlimited.com/wp-
