Detailed Reason (s) for cessation
The Company has recently expanded into new services pursuant to a joint venture as announced by the Company on 31 March 2024 with a new management led by shareholder and Executive Director Ms. Tang Zhengming ("Ms. Tang"). In view of these new developments, Mr. Gavin Mark McIntyre ("Mr. McIntyre") is of the view that after 7 years of service to the Company, it is an appropriate time to seek retirement as a director of the Company so as to allow the Company to rejuvenate its board of directors with new members who can follow through on the Company's new services in the years ahead.

Therefore, Mr. McIntyre will not be seeking re-appointment at the Company's forthcoming annual general meeting (the "AGM") to be held on 26 April 2024. Thus Mr. McIntyre will cease to be a Director of the Company after the conclusion of the AGM.

Based on its enquiries, the Company's sponsor, UOB Kay Hian Private Limited, is satisfied that, save as disclosed in the announcement, there are no other material reasons for the cessation of Mr. McIntyre as the Independent Director of the Company.
