Proposal: Ratification of the Appointment of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Certified Public Accountants LLP

 

The Board previously appointed Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Certified Public Accountants LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2021.

The Board has provided the following resolution for approval by the Company’s shareholders:

 

RESOLVED THAT, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Certified Public Accountants LLP be, and hereby is, ratified as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2021.”

 

The Board has fixed the close of business on June 18, 2021 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the AGM or any adjourned or postponed meeting thereof. The Board recommends the shareholders to vote FOR the resolutions.

In respect of the matters requiring shareholders’ vote at the AGM, each Class A ordinary share is entitled to one vote, and each Class B ordinary share is entitled to 20 votes. Shares underlying the Company’s American depositary shares (“ADSs”) are Class A ordinary shares. Each ADS represents one Class A ordinary share.
