Particular consideration will be given in assessing the independence of those independent non-executive Directors who have been serving on the Board for more than 9 years and seeking re-election in an annual general meeting. Reasons will be given in the circular for the annual general meeting to explain why the Board believes those independent non-executive Directors are still independent and should be re-elected.
