Part I

Letter from the Chairman of Beacon Rise Holdings PLC

(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales with registered no. 13620150)            

Dear Shareholder

1.   Introduction

I am pleased to inform you that the 2024 Annual General Meeting (the "AGM") of Beacon Rise Holdings PLC (the "Company") will be held at Meeting Room 1, Paddington Works, 8 Hermitage St, London, W2 1BE on 13^th June 2024 at BST 2:30 p.m..

The formal notice convening the AGM ("AGM Notice") is set out in this document. Further information on each of the resolutions to be considered at the AGM ("Resolutions") is set out in section 2 (Resolutions at the Annual General Meeting) below.

The Company's Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 are available for review or download in the Investors section on the Company's website at https://www.beaconrise.uk/index.php/investors.

This letter also explains why the Board of the Company recommend that shareholders of the Company vote in favour of the Resolutions.

2.   Resolutions at the Annual General Meeting

Resolution 1: The Directors are required to lay before the AGM the Directors' Annual Report and Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023.

Resolutions 2-4: The Company's articles of association require all Directors to retire at the AGM and, if willing, offer themselves for re-appointment by the members.

Resolutions 5-6: These Resolutions are proposed to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report and the Directors' Remuneration Policy, set out on page 11 to 13 of the Annual Report and Financial Statements.

Resolution 7: This Resolution proposes the re-appointment of PKF Littlejohn LLP as auditors of the Company and to authorise the Directors to determine their remuneration. The current appointment of PKF Littlejohn LLP as the Company's auditors will end at the conclusion of the AGM and they have advised of its willingness to stand for re-appointment.

Resolution 8: This Resolution is proposed to grant to the Directors the authority to allot, pursuant to section 551 of the Companies Act 2006, shares and grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares in the Company up to a maximum nominal amount of £786,888.67. The amount represents approximately two-thirds of the Company's issued share capital on 9^th May 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this AGM Notice).  

For information, on 9^th May 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this AGM Notice), the Company held no treasury shares. This authority conferred pursuant to Resolution 8 replaces any existing authorities to issue shares in the Company and will expire on the date being 15 months from the date of the passing of this Resolution or, if earlier, at the conclusion of next AGM of the Company (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company at a general meeting).

Resolution 9: This Resolution is to approve the disapplication of pre-emption rights. The passing of this Resolution will allow the Directors to allot shares for cash and/or sell treasury shares without first having to offer such shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings up to a maximum nominal amount of £236,066.6.  This amount represents 20 percent of the Company's issued ordinary share capital on 9^th May 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this AGM Notice).  

For information, on 9^th May 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this AGM Notice), the Company held no treasury shares. This authority conferred pursuant to Resolution 9 replaces any existing authorities to issue shares in the Company and will expire on the date being 15 months from the date of the passing of this Resolution or, if earlier, at the conclusion of next AGM of the Company (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company at a general meeting).

3.   Voting

Each shareholder registered on the register of members of the Company at BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024 is entitled to vote on the Resolutions contained in the AGM Notice. If you would like to vote on the Resolutions but cannot come to the AGM, please complete a Form of Proxy and return it to the Company as soon as possible and in any event so as to be received by it by BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024. Further information in relation to the Form of Proxy (including how to return a completed proxy instruction) is set out in the AGM Notice and on the reverse of the Form of Proxy itself.

4.   Attendance

I hope that you will come to the AGM, if you can.

The Company is committed to reducing paper and improving efficiency in its shareholder communications. This year, you will not receive a hard copy Form of Proxy for the 2024 AGM in the post automatically. You may request a hard copy Form of Proxy directly from the Company. Details on how to request and complete a hard copy Form of Proxy are set out in this document.

Whether or not you intend to attend the AGM, I would strongly encourage you, regardless of the number of shares you own, to vote on the Resolutions in the manner detailed in the AGM Notice, either electronically or by completing and returning a hard copy Form of Proxy (available on request from the Company) as soon as possible and in any event not later than BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024.

Completion and submission or return of the Form of Proxy does not prevent you from attending and voting at the AGM in person.

The AGM Notice also includes instructions to enable you to vote electronically and details of how to register to do so. The Resolutions set out in this AGM Notice will be voted on by way of a poll. All valid proxy votes (whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form) will be included in the poll to be taken at the AGM.

In addition, shareholders are encouraged to submit questions, no later than seven days prior to the AGM, via email to the Company at info@beaconrise.uk. To the extent that it is appropriate to do so, the Company will endeavour to publish these questions and the Company's responses on the Company's website, www.beaconrise.uk, as soon as practicable after the AGM. To ask a question, please email info@beaconrise.uk with details of your shareholder number or other evidence of entitlement to attend the AGM.

Yours faithfully

Xiaobing Wang

Appointment of proxy

4.   If you are a shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote at the meeting, you are entitled to appoint one or more proxies to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting and you should have received a proxy form with this notice of meeting. A proxy does not need to be a shareholder of the Company but must attend the meeting to represent you. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form.

5.   You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. To appoint more than one proxy, please contact the Company by email at info@beaconrise.uk. You will need to state clearly on each proxy form the number of shares in relation to which the proxy is appointed. If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the meeting you will need to appoint your own choice of proxy (not the chairman) and give your instructions directly to them.

Appointment of proxy by post

6.   The notes to the proxy form explain how to direct your proxy how to vote on each Resolution.

7.   To appoint a proxy using the proxy form, the form must be:

a)   completed and signed;

b)   sent or delivered to the Company at its registered office Kemp House, 160 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX; and

c)   received by the Company no later than BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024.

8.   Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.

Appointment of proxies electronically

9.   As an alternative to completing the hard-copy proxy form, you can appoint a proxy electronically by emailing a copy of the proxy form to info@beaconrise.uk. For an electronic proxy appointment to be valid, your appointment must be received by the Company no later than BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024.

10. This email address should not be used for any other purposes unless expressly stated.

Proxy voting

11. In the case of a shareholder which is a corporation, the proxy form must be executed in any of the following ways: (i) under its common seal; (ii) not under its common seal but otherwise in accordance with the articles or constitution; or (iii) signed on its behalf by a duly authorised officer of the company or its authorised attorney.

12. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which a proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.

13. In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the register in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

Changing proxy instructions

14. Shareholders may change proxy instructions by submitting a new proxy appointment using the methods set out above. Note that the cut-off time for receipt of proxy appointments also applies in relation to amended instructions; any amended proxy appointment received after the relevant cut-off time will be disregarded.

15. Where you have appointed a proxy using the hard-copy proxy form and would like to change the instructions using another hard-copy proxy form, please contact info@beaconrise.uk. 

16. If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.

Termination of proxy appointment

17. A shareholder may change a proxy instruction but to do so you will need to inform the Company in writing by either: 

a)   sending a signed hard-copy notice clearly stating your intention to revoke your proxy appointment to the Company. In the case of a shareholder which is a company, the revocation notice must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the revocation notice is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the revocation notice; or

b)   sending an email to info@beaconrise.uk.  

18. In either case, the revocation notice must be received by the Company no later than BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024. 

19. If you attempt to revoke your proxy appointment but the revocation is received after the time specified, your original proxy appointment will remain valid unless you attend the AGM and vote in person.

20. Appointment of a proxy does not preclude you from attending the meeting and voting in person. If you have appointed a proxy and attend the AGM in person, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.

Appointment of proxies through CREST

21. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so using the procedure described in the CREST Manual (available at www.euroclear.com). CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

22. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (CREST Proxy Instruction) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com). The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy, must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (RA20) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instruction to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

23. CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) takes) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings (www.euroclear.com).

24. The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5) (a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 (as amended). Members are advised to read the terms and conditions of use on www.euroclear.com carefully.

Corporate representatives

25. Any corporation which is a shareholder can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a shareholder provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

Issued shares and total voting rights

26. As at the opening of business on 9^th May 2024 (being the last practicable date prior to publication of this document), the Company's issued share capital comprised 1,180,333 shares of £1 each. Each share carries the right to one vote at a general meeting of the Company and therefore the total number of voting rights in the Company as at the opening of business on 10^th May 2024 is 1,180,333. As at the date of this document, the Company does not hold any shares in treasury.

Voting

27. Shareholders are requested to vote in advance of the AGM either electronically or by completing and returning the enclosed proxy form not later than BST 2:30 p.m. on 11^th June 2024. The results will be published on our website www.beaconrise.uk and will be released to the London Stock Exchange.

28. At the AGM itself, the votes on each Resolution at the meeting will be taken by poll rather than a show of hands. The results will be published on our website www.beaconrise.uk and will be released to the London Stock Exchange.

Communication

29. Except as provided above, shareholders who have general queries about the meeting should contact info@beaconrise.uk (no other methods of communication will be accepted).

30. You may not use any electronic address provided either:

a)   in this notice of general meeting; or

b)   any related documents (including the proxy form),

to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.
