Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSED CAPITAL REORGANISATION AND NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 26 March 2014 in relation to the proposed Capital Reorganisation.

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further information regarding the proposed Capital Reorganisation and to give notice of the EGM to be convened for the purpose of approving the necessary resolution to implement the proposed Capital Reorganisation.

PROPOSED CAPITAL REORGANISATION

The Company intends to put forward a proposal to the Shareholders to effect the Capital Reorganisation which will involve:–

  • (i) the proposed Share Consolidation whereby every ten (10) Shares of nominal value of HK$0.05 each in the issued and unissued share capital of the Company will be consolidated into one Consolidated Share of nominal value of HK$0.50;

  • (ii) the proposed Capital Reduction whereby the issued share capital of the Company will be reduced by the cancellation of the paid-up capital of the Company to the extent of HK$0.49 on each of the issued Consolidated Shares such that the nominal value of each issued Consolidated Share will be reduced from HK$0.50 to HK$0.01;

  • (iii) the credit arising from the Capital Reduction will be applied towards cancelling the accumulated losses of the Company and the balance thereof (if any) be transferred to the distributable capital reduction reserve account of the Company or other reserve of the Company which may be utilised by the Board as a distributable reserve in accordance with the Articles; and

  • (iv) immediately following the Capital Reduction, the proposed Share Subdivision whereby each of the authorised but unissued Consolidated Shares of nominal value of HK$0.50 each will be sub-divided into fifty (50) Adjusted Shares of nominal value of HK$0.01 each.

Conditions of the Capital Reorganisation

The implementation of the Capital Reorganisation (which will be effected in accordance with the Articles and the Companies Law) is conditional upon:–

  • (i) the passing of the necessary resolution(s) to approve the Capital Reorganisation by the Shareholders at the EGM to be convened by the Company;

  • (ii) approval by the Cayman Islands Court of the Capital Reduction;

– 8 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (iii) compliance with any conditions that may be imposed by the Cayman Islands Court for the Capital Reduction to become effective;

  • (iv) the registration by the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands of the order granted by the Cayman Islands Court and the minutes approved by the Cayman Islands Court containing the particulars required under the Companies Law; and

  • (v) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective.

Upon the conditions mentioned above being fulfilled, the Capital Reorganisation will become effective. An application will be made to the Cayman Islands Court for the approval of the Capital Reduction as soon as practicable after the same is approved by the Shareholders by way of a special resolution at the EGM.

Subject to the availability of the Cayman Islands Court, it may take about three to four months to complete the Capital Reorganisation after the EGM.

Further announcement(s) (if any) will be made to inform the Shareholders of the progress of the matter as and when appropriate.

Listing application

The Company will apply to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares arising from the Capital Reorganisation and the underlying Adjusted Shares falling to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the subscription rights or conversion rights attached to the outstanding Share Options and Warrants.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Effect of the Capital Reorganisation

The following table sets out the effect of the Capital Reorganisation on the share capital of the Company (i) immediately before the Capital Reorganisation, and (ii) immediately after the Capital Reorganisation (assuming that no further Shares are issued or repurchased between the Latest Practicable Date and the effective date of the Capital Reorganisation and that none of the outstanding Share Options and Warrants will be exercised prior to the effective date of the Capital Reorganisation):

Immediately before Immediately after
the Capital the Capital
Reorganisation Reorganisation
Nominal value per share HK$0.05 per Share HK$0.01 per Adjusted
Share
Authorised share capital of HK$500,000,000 HK$500,000,000 divided
the Company divided into into 50,000,000,000
10,000,000,000 Adjusted Shares of
Shares of HK$0.05 HK$0.01 each
each
Issued and paid-up share HK$198,601,790.2 HK$3,972,035.8 divided
capital of the Company divided into into 397,203,580 whole
3,972,035,804 Adjusted Shares of
Shares of HK$0.05 HK$0.01 each
each

Based on the number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, as result of the Capital Reduction, a credit of approximately HK$194.6 million will arise in the books of the Company. Such credit will be applied to set-off the accumulated losses of the Company. The accumulated losses of the Company was approximately HK$117.7 million as at 31 March 2013.

The Adjusted Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with each other in accordance with the Articles and the Capital Reorganisation will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

After the Capital Reorganisation becomes effective, the board lot size of the shares in the Company for trading on the Stock Exchange would remain as 4,000.

– 10 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Reasons for the Capital Reorganisation

The proposed Capital Reorganisation will reduce the total number of Shares currently in issue and reduce the nominal value of the shares of the Company from HK$0.05 each to HK$0.01 each. As such, it is expected to bring about a corresponding upward adjustment in the trading price of the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange, and reduce the overall transaction costs for dealings in the Adjusted Shares. The Board believes that it may attract more investors and extend the shareholders base of the Company. In addition, the Board is of the view that the Capital Reorganisation will provide the Company with greater flexibility for the issue of new Adjusted Shares in the future, which may or may not occur, accommodating future expansion and growth of the Company and the elimination of the Company’s accumulated loss may facilitate any dividend payment by the Company as and when appropriate in the future.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Capital Reorganisation will not have a material financial effect on the financial position of the Group. The Board believes that on the date when the Capital Reorganisation becomes effective, there will be no reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or after the Capital Reorganisation would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Capital Reorganisation, the implementation thereof will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Group or the interests or rights of the Shareholders.

The Board therefore believes that the Capital Reorganisation is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

OTHER ARRANGEMENTS

Fractional entitlements

Any fractional Adjusted Share arising from the Capital Reorganisation will not be issued by the Company. Any such fractional entitlements to the Adjusted Shares will be aggregated, sold and retained for the benefit of the Company.

– 11 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

CCASS eligibility

No part of the share capital of the Company is listed or dealt in, and no listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought, on any other stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange. Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange, the Adjusted Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS in the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time.

Free exchange of share certificates for the Adjusted Shares and trading arrangements

Subject to the Capital Reorganisation having become effective, Shareholders may, during the period commencing from Thursday, 31 July 2014 until Friday, 5 September 2014, submit existing certificates (in green) for the existing Shares to the Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office of the Company, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong for exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new certificates (in light blue) for the Adjusted Shares. Thereafter, certificates for the existing Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.5 (or such higher amount as may from time to time be specified by the Stock Exchange) by the Shareholders for each certificate issued or cancelled, whichever is higher.

All existing certificates of the existing Shares will continue to be good evidence of entitlement to such existing Shares and be valid for delivery, transfer and settlement purpose up to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 3 September 2014, being the latest time for trading in board lot of 400 Adjusted Shares in the form of existing share certificates (or such other date which will be announced by the Company). Nevertheless, they will not be acceptable for trading, settlement and registration purpose after the Capital Reorganisation becomes effective but may be exchanged for share certificates of the Adjusted Shares at any time in accordance with the foregoing.

It is expected that new share certificates will be issued within a period of 10 business days upon the presentation of the existing share certificates. New share certificates for the Adjusted Shares will be in light blue in order to distinguish them from the existing share certificates which are in green.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Arrangement for matching service for odd lots

In order to alleviate the difficulties arising from the existence of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares, the Company has appointed Kingston Securities Limited as an agent to provide for the matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares, on a best effort basis, at the relevant market price per Adjusted Share for Shareholders. Shareholders who wish to take this matching services to dispose or top up odd lots of the Adjusted Shares should directly or through their broker to contact Ms. Rosita Kiu of Kingston Securities Limited at Suite 2801, 28th Floor, One International Finance Centre, 1 Harbour View Street, Central, Hong Kong (telephone number: (852) 2298 6215) during the period from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 14 August 2014 to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 3 September 2014 (both dates inclusive).

Holders of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares should note that successful matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares are not guaranteed. Any Shareholder, who is in any doubt about the odd lot arrangement, is recommended to consult his/her/its own professional advisers.

Adjustment in relation to the subscription price of the Share Options and Warrants

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there are (i) Share Options outstanding entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for an aggregate of 89,900,000 Shares; and (ii) Warrants outstanding entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for an aggregate of 741,000,000 Shares. Under the relevant terms and conditions, adjustment(s) to the subscription price and/or the number of Shares or Adjusted Shares (as the case may be) falling to be issued upon exercise of the subscription rights of the Share Option and the conversion rights of the Warrants will made after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective. The Company will inform the holders of the Share Options and holders of the Warrants of the relevant adjustment(s) and make appropriate announcement on the Stock Exchange as and when appropriate.

Save as the aforesaid, the Company has no other outstanding convertible securities, options or warrants in issue which confer any right to subscribe for, convert or exchange into Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that the Capital Reorganisation is conditional upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set out in the paragraph headed “Conditions of Capital Reorganisation” above, and therefore may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares, and if they are in any doubt about their position, they should consult their professional advisers.
