EXPLANATORY STATEMENT: For past sometime the directors have been giving thought to changing the name of the company. The new name proposed retains the name 'Ria' which has become so widely recognized and accepted over the years in the fields in which the company operates; but it omits the word Technologies because the company is diversifying into many related areas not really confined to technologies. The directors trust that this change of name will have the members approval and support. The Registrar of Companies has confirmed that the new name is available for registration under Section 4 of the Companies Act, 2013 and subject to the resolution being passed, an application will be made to the Registrar of Companies for approval to the change of name under Section 13 of the Act. If the change of name is approved share certificates already issued will not be called in only for the purpose of exchange into certificates bearing the new name but will be so exchanged as and when the existing share certificates come into the possession of the company and in the mean time the existing certificates will continue to be accepted for all purposes as indicating entitlement to share or debenture stock of the company. The Board places this proposal before you for approval. None of the directors is interest or concerned in the resolution.
