Reference is made to the joint announcement issued by Top Mix Investments Limited, TTM Technologies, Inc., TTM Hong Kong Limited and Meadville Holdings Limited on 16 November 2009 in relation to the Proposal (the “Announcement”). Terms defined in the Announcement have the same meaning when used in this announcement unless the context otherwise requires.
EXTENSION OF TIME FOR DESPATCH OF THE CIRCULAR
Pursuant to Listing Rules 14.38A, 14.48 and 14A.49 and Rule 8.2 of the Takeovers Code, unless the requisite waiver is granted by the Stock Exchange and the consent of the Executive is obtained, the Circular should be despatched to the Shareholders within 21 days (pursuant to the Listing Rules) and 35 days (pursuant to the Takeovers Code) of the date of the Announcement, which would be on or before 7 December 2009 and 21 December 2009, respectively.
The above deadlines for despatch of the Circular will be extended as more time is required:
(a)   to prepare an accountants’ report in respect of Meadville and its subsidiaries (the “Meadville Accountants’ Report”) for the years ended 31 December 2006, 31 December 2007 and 31 December 2008 and the nine months ended 30 September 2008 and 30 September 2009 and pursuant to an application by Meadville to the Stock Exchange for a waiver from strict compliance to prepare the financial information of TTM in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRS”) or International Financial Reporting Standards (the “TTM Waiver”), TTM proposed to prepare the US GAAP financial information in respect of the TTM Group (the “TTM Financial Information”) for the years ended 31 December 2006, 31 December 2007 and 31 December 2008 and the nine months ended 29 September 2008 and 28 September 2009 for inclusion in the Circular;
(b)   to prepare a line-by-line reconciliation statement of the financial statements of TTM from generally accepted accounting principles in the US to HKFRS (the “Reconciliation Statements”), a review report by TTM’ auditors in relation to the Reconciliation Statements and other additional financial information for inclusion in the Circular in order to comply with the requirements which may be imposed by the Stock Exchange if the TTM Waiver is granted; and
(c)   for the Registration Statement filed on Form S-4 (which includes the Proxy Statement/US prospectus to be sent to the shareholders of TTM, and the US prospectus to be despatched to the Shareholders at the same time the Circular is despatched) by TTM with the SEC in December 2009 to be reviewed and declared effective by the SEC.

Applications have been made to the Stock Exchange and the Executive for an extension of time to despatch the Circular from 7 December 2009 (in the case of the Stock Exchange) and 21 December 2009 (in the case of the Executive) to a date on or before 26 February 2010.
