SHARE TRADING POLICY

Introduction

This document sets out the Company's policy on the sale and purchase of its securities by its Directors, employees and contractors.

The purpose of this policy is to:

  • impose "Black-out" periods at various times during the year, particularly in periods leading up to an announcement of results, during which trading of the Company's securities by Directors, employees and contractors is prohibited; and
  • set out procedures to reduce the risk of insider trading.

A basic explanation on insider trading is provided together with the steps taken by the Company to prevent the practice, including:

  • a description of what conduct may constitute insider trading.
  • the windows when Directors, employees and contractors are permitted to buy or sell securities in order to minimise the risk of insider trading.
  • the steps to take when buying or selling securities in the Company.

    3. passes on that information to a third party where that person knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the third party would be likely to deal in the securities or procure someone else to deal in the securities of the company.

Examples

Price sensitive information means information relating to the Company that would, if the information were publicly known, be likely to:

  • Have a material effect on the price or value of its shares
  • Influence persons who invest in securities in deciding whether or not to buy or sell the company's shares

The following are examples of price sensitive information which, if made available to the market, would be likely to affect the price of the Company's securities:

  • The Company is considering the acquisition of another company,
  • Product testing results confirming (or falling short of) the market's expectations.

Dealing Through Third Parties

A person does not need to be a Director, employee of Company to be guilty of insider trading in relation to securities in the Company. The prohibition extends to dealings by anyone, including Directors' and employees' nominees, agents or other associates, such as family members, family trusts and family companies, as well as customers and suppliers.

Contractors and External Advisors

Contractors employed by the Company shall be informed of this policy when they are appointed and are required to adhere to the policy so long as they are contracted by the Company. Breach of the policy may lead to termination of contract arrangements.

The Company's staffs dealing with external advisers needs to ensure that the advisers are aware of the insider trading rules and where these dealings cover material matters, that the issue of insider trading is covered in confidentiality documents.
