COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Nam Tai Property Announces Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association

 

SHENZHEN, China – September 29, 2020 – Nam Tai Property Inc. (“Nam Tai” or the “Company”) (NYSE Symbol: NTP) today announced that the Company has adopted an Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

 

 

ABOUT NAM TAI PROPERTY INC.

 

We are a real estate developer and operator, mainly conducting business in Mainland China. Our main land resources are located in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area ("Greater Bay Area") and Wuxi, China, of which the three plots in Shenzhen will be developed into Nam Tai Inno Park, Nam Tai Technology Center and Nam Tai Inno Valley. We plan to build these technology parks into landmark parks in the region and provide high-quality industrial offices, industrial service spaces and supporting dormitories to the tenants. Based on the experience of developing and operating technology parks and an industrial relationship network accumulated over the past 40 years, we have also exported the operation model of technology parks to other industrial properties. Through an asset-light model, we have leased industrial properties for repositioning and business invitation. We will also expand the commercial and residential property business in China as an auxiliary development strategy of the Company. As the growth prospects of China maintain, we shall seize development opportunities in the Greater Bay Area and other first- and second-tier cities in China, and continue to strengthen and expand the business of industrial real estate, and commercial and residential properties. Nam Tai Property Inc. is a corporation registered in the British Virgin Islands and listed on the New York Stock Exchange (Symbol: "NTP"). Please refer to our corporate website (https://www.namtai.com/) or the SEC website (www.sec.gov) for our press releases and financial statements.

 

Forward-looking Statement and Factors that Could Cause our Share Price to Decline

 

Certain statements included in this press release, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may", "might", "can", "could", "will", "would", "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "intend", "plan", "seek", or "timetable". These forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business and the industry in which we operate.

There are several factors, many beyond our control, which could cause results to differ materially from our expectation. These risk factors are described in our Annual Report on Form 20-F and in our Current Reports filed on Form 6-K from time to time and are incorporated herein by reference. Any of these factors could, by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. There may also be other factors currently unknown to us, or have not been described by us, that could cause our results to differ from our expectations. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. These forward-looking statements apply only as of the date of this announcement; as such, they should not be unduly relied upon as circumstances change.

8.

Subject to the provisions of the Act, any shares may be purchased, redeemed or acquired by the Company on such terms and in such manner as the directors may determine.

For the purposes of Regulation 8(a) of these Articles the following defined terms have the meanings indicated:

 

“Beneficial owner,” “beneficial ownership” or “beneficially owned,” in the context of a Person whose shares may be redeemed shall be ascertained in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of Regulation 13D promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any successor to that Rule.

5


 

“Judgment Amount” means the sum of (i) the liquidated amount of the Judgment, (ii) interest thereon at the legal rate of the jurisdiction in which it was entered from the date of such entry through the Date Fixed for Redemption, and (iii) reasonable expenses of the Company (including its reasonable attorney fees, court costs, administration and overhead costs, and any other related expenses) of enforcing the Judgment and/or redeeming its shares to satisfy the same, less the sum of any amounts thereto fore paid on, or credited against, the Judgment.

“U.S.” shall mean the United States of America.

 

 

(b)

Without limiting the generality of Regulation 8 of these Articles, in the furtherance thereof and in addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Company at law or in equity, the Company may at any time and from time to time redeem, at the Redemption Price per share, all or any of its outstanding shares beneficially owned by any Person, or registered in the name of any Person whose name is entered as a member in the share register, against whom the Company has a Judgment.

 

6


 

At least 30 calendar days before the date fixed for redemption as determined by resolution of the directors (the “Date Fixed for Redemption”), a written redemption notice (the “Notice”) shall be sent to each beneficial owner and registered holder (if different, from the beneficial owner) whose shares are to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of the beneficial owner and registered holder (if different, from the beneficial owner) as shown on the records of the Company, stating: (i) the class(es) of shares and the number of shares in each such class to be redeemed from the beneficial owner, (ii) the Date Fixed for Redemption, (iii) information on the method to be used to determine Redemption Price in accordance with Regulation 8(a) of these Articles, (iv) the Judgment Amount and (v) the address of the place where the certificates for the shares to be redeemed shall be surrendered for redemption.  On or before the Date Fixed for Redemption, each beneficial owner and registered holder (if different, from the beneficial owner) of the shares to be redeemed shall surrender the certificates representing these shares to the Company at the place so designated therefor in the Notice unless the Judgment Amount has theretofore been satisfied in full.  

 

On the Date Fixed for Redemption the Company shall pay the Redemption Price for the shares redeemed by offsetting the Fair Market Value of the shares redeemed against the Judgment Amount.  If the Fair Market Value of the shares redeemed exceeds the Judgment Amount, then new certificates representing the number of shares determined by dividing such excess by the Redemption Price (and rounding the quotient down to the nearest whole share) shall be issued to the Person whose shares were redeemed.

 

In lieu any fractional shares otherwise issuable, the Company shall pay an amount equal to the Redemption Price multiplied by the fraction.  If the Fair Market Value of the shares redeemed is insufficient to fully satisfy the Judgment Amount, the Company shall retain the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies otherwise available to satisfy the deficiency.  If the Notice is given in the manner provided in this Regulation, whether or not the certificates covering these shares are surrendered, all rights with respect to the redeemed shares shall terminate except for the right of the Person whose shares are so redeemed to receive credit by offset against the Judgment Amount as herein provided.  Unless the certificates covering these shares are received by the company at the place so designated the Judgment Amount will not be deemed to have been satisfied in full.

 

9.

If at any time there are different classes or series of shares, the rights attached to any class or series (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class or series) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three fourths of the issued shares of any other class or series of shares which may be affected by such variation.

10.

The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

11.

No notice of a trust, whether expressed, implied or constructive, shall be entered on the register of members.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

12.

Registered shares in the Company may be transferred by a written instrument of transfer signed by the transferor and containing the name and address of the transferee, but in the absence of such written instrument of transfer the directors may accept such evidence of a transfer of shares as they consider appropriate. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the directors may appoint a transfer agent and one or more co-transfer agents and registrar and one or more co-registrars and may make or authorise such agent to make all such additional rules and regulations deemed expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of the shares of the Company.

7


 

13.

 

(a)

Subject to any limitations in the Memorandum, upon surrender to the Company or the transfer agent of the Company of a certificate for registered shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the Company to issue a new certificate or evidence of the issuance of uncertificated shares to the shareholder entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon the Company’s register of members. Upon the surrender of any certificate for transfer, such certificate shall at once be conspicuously marked on its face "Cancelled" and recorded in the register of members of the Company.

 

 

(b)

Upon the receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered owner of uncertificated registered shares, such uncertificated shares shall be cancelled, issuance of new equivalent uncertificated shares or certificated shares shall be made to the shareholder entitled thereto and the transaction shall be recorded upon the register of members of the Company.  If the Company has a transfer agent or registrar acting on its behalf, the signature of any officer or representative thereof may be in facsimile.

 

14.

The directors shall have power to close the register of members for such period as they shall think fit, but not exceeding 90 days in any one year.

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

15.

 

(a)

The personal representatives, guardian or trustee as the case may be of any deceased, incompetent or bankrupt sole holder of a registered share shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the share.  In the case of a share registered in the names of two or more holders, the survivor or survivors, and the personal representative, guardian or trustee as the case may be of the deceased, incompetent or bankrupt holder or holders shall be the only persons recognised by the company as having any title to the share but they shall not be entitled to exercise any rights as a member of the Company until they have proceeded as set forth in the following Regulations.

 

 

(b)

Any person becoming entitled by operation of law or otherwise to a share or shares in consequence of the death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any member may be registered as a member upon such evidence being produced as may reasonably be required by the directors.  An application by any such person to be registered as a member for all purposes shall be deemed to be a transfer of shares of the deceased, incompetent or bankrupt member and the directors shall treat it as such.

 

16.

Any person who has become entitled to a share or shares in consequence of the death, incompetence or bankruptcy of any member may, instead of being registered himself, request in writing that some person to be named by him be registered as a transferee of such share or shares and such request shall likewise be treated as it were a transfer.

ACQUISITION OF OWN SHARES

8


 

17.

Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Company may purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any of its own shares for such consideration as the Company by resolution of directors considers fit, and either cancel or hold such shares as treasury shares.  The Company may dispose of any shares held as treasury shares on such terms and conditions as the Company by a resolution of directors may from time to time determine.  Shares may be purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company in exchange for newly issued shares in the Company. Sections 60 (Process for acquisition of own shares), 61 (Offer to one or more shareholders) and 62 (Shares redeemed otherwise than at the option of company) of the Act shall not apply to the Company.

18.

The Company may by resolution of directors amend the Memorandum to increase or reduce the number of shares that the Company is authorised to issue.

19.

The Company may:  

 

(a)

divide any shares, including issued shares, of a class or series into a larger number of shares of the same class or series; or

 

 

(b)

combine the shares, including issued shares, of a class or series into a smaller number of shares of the same class or series;

 

 

(c)

provided, however, that where shares with a par value are divided or combined under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Article, the aggregate par value of the new shares must be equal to the aggregate par value of the original shares.

 

20.

Where any difficulty arises in regard to any consolidation and division under Regulation 20, the Company by a resolution of directors may settle the same as it thinks expedient.

21.

[intentionally left blank]

MEETINGS OF MEMBERS

22.

The directors may convene meetings of the members of the Company at such times and in such manner and places as the directors consider necessary or desirable, and they shall convene such a meeting upon the written request of members holding more than 30 percent of the votes of the outstanding voting shares in the Company.

23.

At least seven days’ notice specifying the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted shall be given to such persons whose names on the date the notice is given appear as members in the register of members of the Company.

24.

A meeting of the members shall be deemed to have been validly called, notwithstanding that is called in contravention of the requirement to give notice in Regulation 23 if shorter notice of the meeting is agreed by members holding not less than 90 percent of the total number of shares having a right to attend and vote at the meeting, or if all such members have waived notice of the meeting.  Presence at the meeting shall be deemed to constitute waiver.

25.

The inadvertent failure of the directors to give notice of a meeting to a member or to the agent or attorney as the case may be, or the fact that a member or such agent or attorney has not received the notice, does not invalidate the meeting.

26.

A member may be represented at a meeting of members by proxy.  The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in such form as the Chairman of the meeting shall accept and shall be produced at the place appointed for the meeting before the time for holding the meeting at which the person named in such instrument proposes to vote.

9


 

PROCEEDINGS AT MEETINGS OF MEMBERS

27.

No business shall be transacted at any meeting of members unless a quorum of members is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business.  A quorum shall consist of one or more members present in person or by proxy representing at least one half of the votes of the shares of each class or series of shares entitled to vote as a class or series and the same proportion of the votes of the remaining shares entitled to vote.

28.

If within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition of members, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the next business day at the same time and place or to such other time and place as the directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third of the votes of the shares or each class or series of shares entitled to vote on the resolutions to be considered by the meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the meeting shall be dissolved.

29.

At each meeting of the members, the Chairman of the board of directors, or if there is no Chairman of the board of directors, or in his or her absence, the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or in the absence of both the Chairman of the board of directors and the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, an officer of the Company selected by the Chairman of the board of directors, or if there is no Chairman of the board of directors or if the Chairman of the board of directors has made no selection, an officer of the Company selected by the board of directors, shall act as Chairman of the meeting.

30.

In case at any meeting of members where the chairman of the meeting as determined in accordance with Regulation 29 is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting, the members present shall choose someone of their number to be chairman.

31.

The chairman at any meeting of members may adjourn any meeting from time to time, and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

32.

All shares vote as one class and each whole share has one vote.  If two or more persons are jointly entitled to a registered nominative share and if more than one of such persons is desirous of voting at the meetings whether in person or by proxy, the vote of that person whose name appears first among such voting joint holders in the register of members alone shall be counted.

33.
