A similar resolution will be proposed at every second annual general meeting of the Company thereafter. If the Extraordinary Resolution to continue is not passed at any of those meetings, the Directors shall formulate proposals to be put to the shareholders to reorganize, reconstruct, or wind up the Company.”
