2. RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

  • (c) to extend the Issuance Mandate by an amount representing the number of Shares bought back by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the Share Buy-back Mandate.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

4. ADOPTION OF NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

The Directors propose the adoption of the New Share Option Scheme, the principal terms of which are set out in Appendix III to this circular. An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM for the Company to approve the adoption of the New Share Option Scheme.

A copy of the New Share Option Scheme is available for inspection (1) at the head office and principal place of business of the Company at Room 1108, 11/F, Eastwood Centre, No. 5 A Kung Ngam Village Road, Shau Kei Wan, Hong Kong during normal business hours from the date hereof up to and including the date of the AGM, and (2) at the AGM.

The Old Share Option Scheme

The Old Share Option Scheme was adopted by the then Shareholders of the Company on 22 June 2005. Pursuant to the Old Share Option Scheme, the Directors were authorised to grant to eligible participants options to subscribe for Shares. The Old Share Option Scheme had a term of ten (10) years and expired on 21 June 2015.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company does not have any outstanding share options granted and yet to be exercised under the Old Share Option Scheme. The Company has not adopted any share option scheme other than the Old Share Option Scheme as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Proposal for Adoption of the New Share Option Scheme

After the expiry of the Old Share Option Scheme, the Company currently does not have any share option scheme. The Directors consider that the Company should adopt the New Share Option Scheme and wish to take the opportunity of the AGM to seek Shareholders’ approval therefor. The terms of the New Share Option Scheme have been prepared in compliance with Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules. The Company will continue to comply with the relevant Listing Rules from time to time in force in respect of the New Share Option Scheme. A summary of the principal terms of the New Share Option Scheme is set out in Appendix III to this circular.

The eligibility of any Grantee (falling within the class of eligible Participants to the New Share Option Scheme) of an offer shall be determined by the Directors from time to time on the basis of the Directors’ opinion as to his/her contribution to the development and growth of the Group. Under the Old Share Option Scheme, the Board can only invite directors, employees, supplier and/or sub-contractor of the Group to take up the options. However, the Board proposes to have a broader scope of Participants in the New Share Options Scheme to include customer, or any person or entity that provides research, development or other technological support to the Group or have contributed to the Group by way of joint venture or business alliance as one of the classes of the Participants as well.

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Directors are of the view that a broad scope of eligible Participants enables the Company to grant Options to those, who in the sole discretion of the Board, have made or may make contribution to the development and growth of the Group and to provide them a direct economic interest in attaining the long term business objectives of the Group. It can also give them an incentive to promote the interests of the Group, such as establishing a long term relationship with the Group or providing better services to the Group.

The Directors believe that the determination of the Subscription Price, which must be the higher of (a) the closing price of Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheet on the date of grant, which must be a Business Day; (b) the average closing price of Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheets for the five Business Days immediately preceding the date of grant; and (c) the nominal value of a Share, means that the Grantees would only be able to obtain benefits from the Options granted to them if the price of Shares rises after the date of grant and that will drive the Grantees to work for the best interests of the Company, which hopefully will be reflected on the price of the Shares and in turn will give the Grantees benefits when realizing the Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Options granted to them. The Directors therefore believe that the authority given to the Board under the New Share Option Scheme to determine the eligibility of any Grantee of any Option based on his/her contribution and the requirement for a minimum subscription price will serve to protect the value of the Company and to achieve the purpose of attracting, retaining and motivating high-calibre personnel to contribute to the growth and development of the Group.

Save as disclosed in Appendix III, no dividends will be payable and no voting rights will be exercisable in relation to an Option that has not been exercised (including those arising on a liquidation of the Company).

An Option is personal to the Grantee and shall not be assignable and no Grantee shall in any way sell, transfer, charge, mortgage, encumber or create any interest in favour of any third party over or in relation to any Option. All other rights attached to the Options are disclosed in Appendix III in detail.

None of the Directors are trustees of the New Share Option Scheme nor have a direct or indirect interest in the trustees.

The total number of Shares which may be issued on the Effective Date under the New Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Group must not in aggregate exceed 44,962,020 Shares, representing 10 per cent. of the Shares in issue as at the date of passing of the resolution at the AGM, assuming that no further Shares shall have been issued between the Latest Practicable Date and the Effective Date.

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The maximum aggregate number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of all outstanding Options granted and yet to be exercised under the New Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Group must not in aggregate exceed 30 per cent. of the Shares in issue from time to time. No Options may be granted under any schemes of the Company (or its subsidiaries) if this will result in such limit being exceeded. On the basis of not exceeding 30 per cent. of the Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that there is no change in the number of Shares in issue from the Latest Practicable Date to the Effective Date, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of all Options to be granted under the New Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes is 134,886,060 Shares.

The Directors consider that it is not appropriate to state the value of all Options that can be granted under the New Share Option Scheme as if they had been granted on the Latest Practicable Date prior to the approval of the New Share Option Scheme given that the variables which are crucial for the calculation of the value of such Options cannot be determined. The variables which are critical for the determination of the value of such Options include, the Subscription Price for the Shares upon the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Options, whether or not Options will be granted under the New Share Option Scheme and the timing of the granting of such Options, the period during which the subscription right may be exercised and any other conditions that the Board imposed on the Options and whether or not such Options if granted will be exercised by the Grantees. The Subscription Price depends on the price of the Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange, which in turn depends on when the Board is to grant Options under the New Share Option Scheme. With a scheme life of ten years, the Board is of the view that it is too premature to state whether or not Options will be granted under the New Share Option Scheme, and if so, the number of Options that may be granted. It is also difficult to ascertain with accuracy the Subscription Price given the volatility the Share price may be subject to during the 10-year life span of the New Share Option Scheme. In the premises, the Directors are of the view that the value of the Options depends on a number of variables which are either difficult to ascertain or can only be ascertained subject to a number of theoretical basis and speculative assumptions. Accordingly, the Directors believed that any calculation of the value of the Options as at the Latest Practicable Date will not be meaningful and may be misleading to Shareholders in the circumstances.

Conditions Precedent of the New Share Option Scheme

The adoption of the New Share Option Scheme is conditional upon:

  1. the passing of an ordinary resolution at the AGM to approve and adopt the New Share Option Scheme; and

  2. the Listing Committee (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Stock Exchange granting approval of the listing of, and permission to deal in any Shares to be issued upon the exercise of the Options to be granted under the New Share Option Scheme.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

5. CHANGE OF AUDITOR

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 4 May 2016 in relation to the proposed change of auditor of the Company.

The Board has announced that PricewaterhouseCoopers (“PwC”) will retire as auditor of the Company upon the expiration of its current term of office, and will not offer itself for re-appointment at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting. The Company has proposed to change its auditor as the Company is of the opinion that rotation of auditor at an appropriate time is a good corporate governance practice and such rotation enhances the independence of auditor as PwC has been the auditor of the Company since its incorporation in 2003.

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and to the knowledge of the Board there is no requirement under the laws of the Cayman Islands for the retiring auditor to confirm whether or not there is any circumstance connected with their retirement which they consider should be brought to the attention of the Shareholders and creditors. PwC has therefore not issued such confirmation.

The Board has confirmed that there are no disagreements or outstanding matters between the Company and PwC, and there are no matters in respect of the proposed change of auditor that need to be brought to the attention of the Shareholders.

The Board has resolved, with the recommendation from the audit committee of the Company, to propose the appointment of Ernst & Young as the new auditor of the Company following the retirement of PwC, and to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.

An ordinary resolution will be proposed to the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting for such appointment.

6. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND PROXY ARRANGEMENT

The notice of the Annual General Meeting is set out on pages 29 to 33 of this circular. At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to approve, inter alia, the re-election of Directors, the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate and the Issuance Mandate, the extension of the Issuance Mandate by the addition thereto of the number of Shares bought back pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate, the adoption of the New Share Option Scheme and the change of auditor.

– 9 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

A form of proxy for use at the Annual General Meeting is also enclosed with this circular and such form of proxy is also published on the websites of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk) and the Company (www.irasia.com/listco/hk/alltronics/).

Completion and delivery of the form of proxy will not preclude Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the Annual General Meeting if they so wish.

7. RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.

8. RECOMMENDATION

The Directors consider that the proposed re-election of Directors, the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate, the grant/extension of the Issuance Mandate, the adoption of the New Share Option Scheme and the change of auditor are in the interests of the Company, the Group and the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors recommend Shareholders to vote in favour of the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

9. GENERAL INFORMATION

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in Appendix I (Explanatory statement on the Share Buy-back Mandate), Appendix II (Details of Directors proposed to be re-elected at the Annual General Meeting) and Appendix III (Summary of the principal terms of the New Share Option Scheme) to this circular.

Yours faithfully, Lam Yin Kee

Chairman of the Board

– 10 –

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to you for your consideration of the Share Buy-back Mandate.

1. REASONS FOR SHARE BUY-BACK

The Directors believe that the proposed grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders.

Shares buy-back may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, result in an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share. The Directors are seeking the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number of Shares to be bought back on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are bought back will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 449,620,200 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution numbered 5 set out in the notice of the Annual General Meeting in respect of the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate and on the basis that no Shares are issued or bought back by the Company prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed under the Share Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 44,962,020 Shares (representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the Annual General Meeting) during the period in which the Share Buy-back Mandate remains in force.

3. FUNDING OF SHARE BUY-BACK

In buying back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum and Current Articles of Association, the laws of the Cayman Islands and other applicable laws.

The Company is empowered by its memorandum and Current Articles of Association to buy back its Shares. The laws of the Cayman Islands provide that the amount of capital paid in connection with a share buy-back may only be paid out of either the profits of the company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for such purpose or, if so authorised by its articles of association and subject to the provisions of the Cayman Islands laws, out of capital. The amount of premium payable on buy-back may be paid out of profits of the company or out of the share premium account of the company, or, if so authorised by its articles of association and subject to the provisions of the Cayman Islands laws, out of capital before the shares are bought back.

– 11 –

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

4. IMPACT OF SHARE BUY-BACK

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2015) in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed buy-back period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. TAKEOVERS CODE

If, on the exercise of the power to buy back Shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code for all the Shares not already owned by such Shareholder or group of Shareholders.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, (1) Mr Lam Yin Kee and Ms Yeung Po Wah, being executive Directors of the Company, together with parties acting in concert with them, and (2) Ms Liu Jing, being an executive Director of the Company, were beneficially interested in 262,508,290 Shares and 69,172,000 Shares respectively, representing approximately 58.38% and 15.38% of the total issued share capital of the Company respectively. On the basis that no Shares are issued or bought back prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting, in the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to buy back Shares in accordance with the terms of the relevant ordinary resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting, the interests of the said Directors in the issued Shares would be increased to approximately 64.87% and 17.09% of the total issued share capital of the Company respectively. Such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code. The Directors have no intention to buy back Shares which would result in the number of Shares in hands of public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25%. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any buy-back to be made under the Share Buy-back Mandate.

6. GENERAL

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective Close Associates have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

– 12 –

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE

The Company has not been notified by any Core Connected Persons of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the grant of the Share Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to buy back Shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of the Cayman Islands.

7. MARKET PRICES OF SHARES

The highest and lowest prices per Share at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous 12 months and up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Month Highest Lowest
HK$ HK$
2015

SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

This Appendix summaries the principal terms of the New Share Option Scheme but does not form, nor was it intended to be, part of the New Share Option Scheme nor should it be taken as affecting the interpretation of the rules of the New Share Option Scheme:

(A) PURPOSE OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

The New Share Option Scheme is adopted for the following principal purposes:–

  • (i) to recognize the significant contributions of the Participants to the growth of the Group by rewarding them with opportunities to obtain ownership interest in the Company; and

  • (ii) to further motivate and give incentives to the Participants to continue to contribute to the Group’s long term success and prosperity.

(B) WHO MAY JOIN

The Board may, at its absolute discretion, invites any person belonging to any of the following classes of participants (“Participant(s)”), to take up Options to subscribe for Shares:

  • (i) any Employee or proposed Employee;

  • (ii) any Directors, non-executive Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any Invested Entity;

  • (iii) any supplier of goods or services to any member of the Group or any Invested Entity;

  • (iv) any customer of the Group or any Invested Entity;

  • (v) any person or entity that provides research, development or other technological support to the Group or any Invested Entity;

  • (vi) any shareholder of any member of the Group or any Invested Entity or any holder of any securities issued by any member of the Group or any Invested Entity; and

  • (vii) any other group or classes of persons or entities from time to time determined by the Board as having contributed or may contribute by way of joint venture, business alliances or other business arrangements to the development and growth of the Group,

and, for the purpose of the New Share Option Scheme, the Options may be granted to any company wholly owned by one or more person belonging to any of the above classes of Participants. For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of any Options by the Company for the subscription of Shares or other securities of the Group to any person who falls within any of the above classes of Participants shall not, by itself, unless the Board otherwise determine, be construed as grant of Options under the New Share Option Scheme.

– 19 –

APPENDIX III

SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

The eligibility of any of the above class of Participants to the grant of any Options shall be determined by the Board from time to time on the basis of their contribution to the development and growth of the Group.

(C) MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES

  • (i) The maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding Options granted and yet to be exercised under the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes must not, subject to the conditions set out below, exceed 30 per cent. of the Shares of the Company in issue from time to time (“Overall Scheme Limit”). No options may be granted under any schemes of the Company (or its subsidiaries) if this will result in the Overall Scheme Limit being exceeded.

  • (ii) The total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options to be granted under the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes must not in aggregate exceed 10 per cent. of the Shares of the Company in issue as at the Effective Date (“Scheme Mandate Limit”).

  • (iii) Subject to (C)(ii) above, the Company may seek approval by its Shareholders in general meeting for “refreshing” the Scheme Mandate Limit. However, the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all options to be granted under the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes of the Company (or its subsidiaries) under the Scheme Mandate Limit as “refreshed” must not exceed 10 per cent. of the Shares in issue as at the date of approval of the refreshing of the Scheme Mandate Limit (“Refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit”). The Company must send a circular to its Shareholders containing the information required under Rule 17.02(2)(d) of the Listing Rules and the disclaimer required under Rule 17.02(4) of the Listing Rules.

Options previously granted to subscribe for Shares under the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes (including those outstanding, cancelled, lapsed in accordance with the New Share Option Scheme or exercised Options) will not be counted for the purpose of calculating the Refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit.

  • (iv) Subject to (C)(ii) above, the Company may seek separate approval by its Shareholders in general meeting for granting Options to subscribe for Shares beyond the Scheme Mandate Limit or the Refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit (as the case may be) provided the Options in excess of the Scheme Mandate Limit or the Refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit are granted only to Participants specifically identified by the Company before such approval is sought. The Company must send a circular to the Shareholders containing a generic description of the specified Participants who may be granted such Options, the number and terms of the Options to be granted, the purpose of granting Options to the specified Participants with an explanation as to how the terms of the Options serve such purpose, the information required under Rule 17.02(2)(d) of the Listing Rules and the disclaimer required under Rule 17.02(4) of the Listing Rules.

(E) GRANT OF OPTIONS TO CONNECTED PERSONS

If Options are granted to a Connected Person, the granting of such Options will be subject to approval by the independent non-executive Directors of the Company (excluding any independent non-executive Director of the Company who is a Grantee of the Options).

  • (b) in the case of an alteration affecting some of but not all outstanding Options, with the written consent or sanction of such number of Grantees as shall together hold Options of the class affected in respect of not less than three fourths in nominal value of all Shares then the subject of such Options or with the sanction, given by resolution at a meeting of the relevant Grantees, passed by such majority of Grantees in respect of the nominal value of all Shares then the subject of the outstanding Options of the class affected as would be required at a meeting of the Shareholders under the memorandum and the Current Articles of Association of the Company for a variation of rights attached to the Shares; or

APPENDIX III

SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

Shares then the subject of such Options or with the sanction, given by resolution at a meeting of the Grantees passed by such majority of the Grantees in respect of the nominal value of all Shares then the subject of the outstanding Options as would be required at a meeting of the Shareholders under the memorandum and the Current Articles of Association of the Company for a variation of rights attached to the Shares.

  • (iii) Any alterations to the terms and conditions of the New Share Option Scheme which are of a material nature or any change to the terms of Options already granted must be approved by the Shareholders in general meeting, except where the alterations take effect automatically under the existing terms of the New Share Option Scheme.

  • (iv) Any change to the authority of the Board in relation to any alteration to the terms of the New Share Option Scheme must be approved by the Shareholders in general meeting.

  • (v) The amended terms of the New Share Option Scheme or the Options to be granted thereunder must comply with relevant requirements of Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules as amended from time to time.

(Y) MINIMUM PERIOD BEFORE AN OPTION CAN BE EXERCISED

The Board may in its absolute discretion impose a minimum period for which an Option has to be held before it is exercised. As at the date of passing of the necessary resolution at the AGM, the New Share Option Scheme does not contain any requirement of a minimum period and the Board considers it is not necessary and too rigid to have a fixed minimum period. The Board is currently unable to determine the minimum period. The imposition of a minimum period requirement for each Option granted will be made by the Board on a case by case basis and will not be made to the advantage of the Participants.

(Z) MISCELLANEOUS

The terms of the New Share Option Scheme (and any other schemes adopted by the Company from time to time) shall be in accordance with the requirements set out in Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules.

The Company will comply with the relevant statutory requirements and the Listing Rules from time to time in force on a continuing basis in respect of the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes of the Company.

Any dispute arising in connection with the New Share Option Scheme (whether as to the number of Shares the subject of an Option, the amount of the Subscription Price or otherwise) shall be referred to the decision of the auditors or independent financial adviser who shall act as experts and not as arbitrators and whose decision shall, save in the case of manifest error, be final and binding on the Company and the Grantees.
