charge to you for requesting a copy. Please make your request for a copy to the Investor Relations Contact of the Company, at UPower.IR@ICRinc.com.
PROPOSAL NO. 1
APPROVAL OF THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION OF THE COMPANY’S
ORDINARY SHARES
General
The Board of Directors believes that it is in the
best interest of the Company and the shareholders, and is hereby soliciting shareholder approval, to effect a share consolidation of the
Company’s Ordinary Shares at a ratio of one-for-one hundred, the authorised share
capital of the Company be amended from US$50,000 divided into 500,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of US$0.0000001 each to US$50,000 divided
into 5,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of US$0.00001 each, so that every shareholder holding 100 Ordinary Shares of US$0.0000001 each will
hold 1 Ordinary Share of US$0.00001 upon the consolidation taking effect, such consolidated shares having the same rights and being subject
to the same restrictions (same as to nominal value) as the existing Ordinary Shares of US$0.0000001 each in the capital of the Company
as set out in the Company’s articles of association (the “Share Consolidation”), on the effective date of March 31,
2024.
The Share Consolidation must be passed by ordinary
resolution which requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast at the Meeting by the shareholders present in person
or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting.
The Share Consolidation will be implemented simultaneously
for all Ordinary Shares. The Share Consolidation will affect all shareholders uniformly and will have no effect on the proportionate holdings
of any individual shareholder, with the exception of adjustments related to the treatment of fractional shares (see below).
Purpose of the Share Consolidation
The Company’s Ordinary Shares are currently
listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “UCAR.” Among other requirements, the listing
maintenance standards established by Nasdaq require the Ordinary Shares to have a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share.
Pursuant to the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”), if the closing bid price of the Ordinary
Shares is not equal to or greater than $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will send a deficiency notice to the Company. Thereafter,
if the Ordinary Shares do not close at a minimum bid price of $1.00 or more for 10 consecutive business days within 180 calendar days
of the deficiency notice, Nasdaq may determine to delist the Ordinary Shares.
On January 13, 2024, the Company received a written
notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule, and
the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until July 17, 2024, to regain compliance.
Furthermore, according to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule
5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) (the “Low Priced Stocks Rule”), if the Ordinary Shares have a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten
consecutive trading days during the 180-day period, Nasdaq will determine to delist the Ordinary Shares.
On February 14, 2024, the Company received a determination
from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the Low Priced Stocks Rule. As a result, the
Ordinary Shares would be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and trading of the Ordinary Shares would be suspended at the opening
of business on February 23, 2024, unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination.
Accordingly, the Company requested an appeal of
this determination on February 21, 2024, and the delisting has been stayed, pending a final written decision by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
On February 21, 2024, the Company was notified that a hearing regarding the Company’s appeal will be held on April 18, 2024.
To regain compliance with both the Minimum Bid Price Rule and the Low
Priced Stocks Rule, the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to solicit the approval of the shareholders
to effect the Share Consolidation.
In the event the Ordinary Shares were no longer eligible for continued
listing on Nasdaq, the Company could be forced to seek to trade its Ordinary Shares on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the “pink sheets.”
These alternative markets are generally considered to be less efficient than, and not as broad as, Nasdaq, and therefore less desirable.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors believes delisting of the Ordinary Shares would likely have a negative impact on the liquidity and
market price of the Ordinary Shares and may increase the spread between the “bid” and “ask” prices quoted by market
makers.
The Board of Directors has considered the potential harm to the Company
of a delisting from Nasdaq and believes that delisting could, among other things, adversely affect (i) the trading price of the Ordinary
Shares; and (ii) the liquidity and marketability of the Ordinary Shares. This could reduce the ability of holders of the Ordinary Shares
to purchase or sell Ordinary Shares as quickly and as inexpensively as they have done historically. Delisting could also adversely
affect the Company’s relationships with customers and suppliers who may perceive the Company’s business less favorably, which
would have a detrimental effect on the Company’s relationships with these entities.
Furthermore, if the Ordinary Shares were no longer
listed on Nasdaq, it may reduce the Company’s access to capital and cause the Company to have less flexibility in responding to
its capital requirements. Certain institutional investors may also be less interested or prohibited from investing in the Ordinary Shares,
which may cause the market price of the Ordinary Shares to decline.
Registration and Trading
of our Ordinary Shares
The Share Consolidation will not affect the registration of the Ordinary
Shares or the Company’s obligation to publicly file financial statements and other information with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. When the Share Consolidation is implemented, the Ordinary Shares will begin trading on a post-split basis on the effective
date. In connection with the Share Consolidation, the CUSIP number of the Ordinary Shares (which is an identifier used by participants
in the securities industry to identify our Ordinary Shares) will change.
Fractional Shares
No fractional shares shall be issued in connection
with the Share Consolidation and all fractional shares (after aggregating all fractional shares that would otherwise be received by a
shareholder) resulting from the Share Consolidation shall instead be rounded up to the whole number of shares.
Authorized Shares
At the time the Share Consolidation is effective, the authorized Ordinary
Shares will be consolidated at the same ratio. The authorized Ordinary Shares of the Company shall be decreased from 500,000,000,000 Ordinary
Shares of US$0.0000001 each to 5,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of US$0.00001 each.
Street Name Holders of Ordinary Shares
The Company intends for the Share Consolidation
to treat shareholders holding Ordinary Shares in street name through a nominee (such as a bank or broker) in the same manner as shareholders
whose shares are registered in their names. Nominees will be instructed to effect the Share Consolidation for their beneficial holders.
However, nominees may have different procedures. Accordingly, shareholders holding Ordinary Shares in street name should contact their
nominees.
Share Certificates
Mandatory surrender of certificates is not required
by our shareholders. The Company’s transfer agent will adjust the record books of the Company to reflect the Share Consolidation
as of the Effective Date. New certificates will not be mailed to shareholders.
Resolutions
The Board of Directors proposes to solicit shareholder
approval to effect the Share Consolidation of the Ordinary Shares at a ratio of one-for-one hundred in
the form of a shareholder resolution. The resolution to be put to the shareholders to consider and vote upon at the Meeting is the following:
It is resolved as an ordinary resolution that:
| (i) | effective on March 31, 2024, every 100 Ordinary Shares with a par value of US$0.0000001 each in the Company’s
issued and unissued share capital be consolidated into one Ordinary Share with a par value of US$0.00001 each (the “Share Consolidation”),
so that immediately following the Share Consolidation, the authorised share capital of the Company shall be changed |
FROM US$50,000 divided into
500,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of par value of US$0.0000001 each
TO US$50,000 divided into
5,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of par value of US$0.00001 each;
| (ii) | no fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the Share Consolidation and all fractional shares
(after aggregating all fractional shares that would otherwise be received by a shareholder) resulting from the Share Consolidation shall
instead be rounded up to the whole number of shares. |
The proposal will be approved if a simple majority
of the total votes duly cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting “FOR” the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will
have no effect on the result of the vote.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS
A VOTE FOR
THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION.
OTHER MATTERS
The Board of Directors is not aware of any other
matters to be submitted to the Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named
in the enclosed form of proxy to vote the shares they represent as the Board of Directors may recommend.
