The respective Boards of Lippo and HKC are pleased to announce that the Completion has taken place today.

As stated in the Joint Announcement, it was initially intended that pursuant to the proposed Loan Agreement, a sum of MOP99 million (equivalent to approximately HK$96 million) and a sum of MOP180 million (equivalent to approximately HK$175 million) would be lent to Winwise by Purchaser A and Purchaser B respectively. Due to certain restrictions on Purchaser B to provide the above loan, it was agreed that the Loan Agreement was entered pursuant to which a sum of MOP144 million (equivalent to approximately HK$140 million) and a sum of MOP135 million (equivalent to approximately HK$131 million) were lent to Winwise by Purchaser A and Mr. Wong Garrick Jorge Kar Ho (the “ New Lender ”) respectively.

Under the Loan Agreement, Winwise may at its sole discretion (1) repay the loan in cash; or (2) set off the loan amount by way of transferring 416,000 MCB Shares to Purchaser A and 390,000 MCB Shares to the New Lender (the “ Share Settlement ”). Other terms of the Loan Agreement remain the same. No agreement in respect of the Share Settlement has been entered into as at the date of this announcement and there is no assurance that an agreement will be entered into or that the Share Settlement will take place; and there is no anticipated date for signing such agreement. Any transfer of shares pursuant to the Share Settlement will be subject to approval from AMCM and compliance by each of Lippo and HKC with the relevant Listing Rules.
