CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM is positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION; PROPOSED CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE; REFRESHMENT OF THE SCHEME MANDATE LIMIT AND NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with details of, among other things, (i) the Share Consolidation; (ii) the Change in Board Lot Size; (iii) the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit; (iv) a notice convening the SGM; and (v) other information as required under the GEM Listing Rules.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

THE PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION

On 30 May 2016, the Company announced that it proposed to implement the Share Consolidation on the basis that every ten (10) issued and unissued Existing Shares will be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share. Fractional Consolidated Shares, if any, arising from the Share Consolidation, will be disregarded and will not be issued to the Shareholders but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefits of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Consolidated Shares regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.

Effects of the Share Consolidation

Based on the 28,863,460,615 Existing Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date (and assuming that there will be no further change in the number of issued Existing Shares prior to the Share Consolidation having become effective), there will be 2,886,346,061 Consolidated Shares in issue after the Share Consolidation becoming effective.

The Consolidated Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with each other in accordance with the Company’s bye-laws. Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation, the implementation thereof will not alter the underlying assets, business operation, management or financial position of the Company or the interests or rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Consolidated Shares which may arise.

Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange, the Consolidated 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 Consolidated 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 on 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. Shareholders should seek advice from their stockbroker or other professional advisors for details of those settlement arrangements and how such arrangement will affect their rights and interests.

Conditions of the proposed Share Consolidation

The Share Consolidation is conditional upon the following:

  • (i) the passing of the necessary resolution(s) by the Shareholders to approve the Share Consolidation at the SGM of the Company; and

— 7 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (ii) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the approval for the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares to be issued.

Subject to the above conditions, the Share Consolidation will become effective on Wednesday, 22 June 2016, which is the next day immediately following the date of the SGM on which Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange.

Listing Application

An application will be made by the Company to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares to be in issue upon the proposed Share Consolidation taking effect.

No part of the equity or debt securities of the Company is listed or dealt in on any stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange and no application is being made or is currently proposed or sought for the shares or any other securities of the Company to be listed or dealt in on any other stock exchanges.

PROPOSED CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

The Company also proposes to change the board lot size for trading in the Shares on the Stock Exchange from 10,000 Shares to 20,000 Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.

ExCHANGE OF SHARE CERTIFICATES

Subject to the Share Consolidation having become effective, Shareholders may, from Wednesday, 22 June 2016 to Friday, 29 July 2016 (both days inclusive), submit share certificates for Existing Shares to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at Shops 1712-16, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong, in exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares. Thereafter, certificates for the Existing Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may be allowed by the Stock Exchange from time to time) for each share certificate for the Existing Shares cancelled or each new share certificate issued for the Consolidated Shares, whichever number of certificates cancelled/ issued is higher. With effect from Monday, 1 August 2016, trading in the Consolidated Shares will only be in the form of new share certificates and the existing share certificates of the Existing Shares will cease to be valid for trading and settlement purpose. Nevertheless, certificates for the Existing Shares will continue to be good evidence of legal title and may be exchanged for new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares at any time.

The new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares will be in the colour of sea green in order to distinguish them from the existing share certificates which are in the colour of deep green.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

ODD LOT ARRANGEMENT

In order to alleviate the difficulties arising from the existence of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares arising from the Change in Board Lot Size, the Company has appointed CSL Securities Limited as an agent to provide matching services, on a best effort basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full board lot, or to dispose of their holding of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 7 July 2016 to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 27 July 2016 (both day inclusive). Shareholders who wish to take advantage of his facility should contact Mr. Paul Lam of CSL Securities Limited at Rooms 1406-12, 14/F, Nan Fung Tower, 88 Connaught Road Central, Central, Hong Kong at telephone number (852) 3601 3413, during office hours. Shareholders should note that matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares is not guaranteed. Shareholders who are in any doubt about the odd lots matching arrangement are recommended to consult their own professional advisers.

REASONS FOR THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION

Pursuant to Rule 17.76 of the GEM Listing Rules, where the market price of the securities of the issuer approaches the extremities of HK$0.01, the issuer is required either to change the trading method or to proceed with a consolidation of its securities. As such, as disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 28 April 2016, the Company proposed to implement the share consolidation on the basis that every five (5) issued and unissued Existing Shares would be consolidated into one (1) consolidated share of HK$0.005 each in the share capital of the Company. Given the decrease in the trading price of the Shares after 28 April 2016, the Company changed the basis of the share consolidation to the consolidation of every ten (10) issued and unissued Existing Shares into one (1) Consolidated Share for compliance with the relevant trading requirements under the GEM Listing Rules. Furthermore, the Share Consolidation will increase the trading price per board lot of the Shares and reduce the overall transaction and handling costs of dealing in the Shares, which in turn enhance the attractiveness of the Shares. Accordingly, the Directors are of the view that the Share Consolidation is in compliance with the GEM Listing Rules and is in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

REFRESHMENT OF THE SCHEME MANDATE LIMIT

The Share Option Scheme was adopted by the Company on 10 June 2011. Save for the Share Option Scheme, the Company has no other share option schemes as at the Latest Practicable Date.

— 9 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Board proposes to seek the approval of the Shareholders to refresh the Scheme Mandate Limit in accordance with the Share Option Scheme. Pursuant to the Share Option Scheme, the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all Options to be granted by the Company must not in aggregate exceed the Scheme Mandate Limit. Refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit has been approved by the Shareholders at the annual general meeting of the Company on 5 April 2016 (the “2015 AGM”). However, as at the Latest Practicable Date, such refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit has not come into effect as its conditions relating to the granting of the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme have not been satisfied. As such, the Scheme Mandate Limit remained as 210,826,181 Shares, representing 10% of the then number of Shares in issue as at the date of the adoption of the Share Option Scheme. Since the adoption of the Share Option Scheme and up to the Latest Practicable Date, Options which entitle their holders to subscribe for 210,000,000 Shares Options have been granted, therefore Options in respect of 826,181 Shares may still be granted under the current Scheme Mandate Limit as at the Latest Practicable Date.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had 28,863,460,615 Shares in issue. In view of the significant increase in the number of issued Shares since 2015 AGM as a result of the issue and allotment of the new Shares from the rights issue of the Company in May 2016, the Company is proposing to put forward a resolution to refresh the Scheme Mandate Limit so as to provide more flexibility to the Company for the purpose of providing incentives and rewards to the Participants for their continuous contribution or potential contribution to the Group. The Board considers that the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Assuming that there is no change in the number of issued Shares between the period from the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the SGM, and based on the 28,863,460,615 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, upon the approval of the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit, the Directors will be authorised to issue Options to subscribe for a total of 2,886,346,061 Shares (representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date) or 288,634,606 Consolidated Shares following the Share Consolidation having become effective.

The refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit is conditional upon:

  1. the passing by the Shareholders of an ordinary resolution at the SGM of the Company to approve, among other things, the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit; and

  2. the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, 10% of the Shares in issue at the date of approval of the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options to be granted under the Share Option Scheme.

— 10 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Application will be made by the Company to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the grant of the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Shares which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options to be granted under the consolidated Share Option Scheme under the refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit.

SGM

A notice convening the SGM to be held at Suites 903-905, 9th Floor, Shui On Centre, 6-8 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong on Tuesday, 21 June 2016, at 3:30 p.m. is set out on pages 13 to 15 of this circular. Ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the SGM to approve, among other things, (i) the Share Consolidation; and (ii) the refreshment of Scheme Mandate Limit.

A form of proxy for use at the SGM is enclosed with this circular. Whether or not you are able to attend the SGM, you are requested to complete the accompanying form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and deposit the same at the office of the Company at 36th Floor, Times Tower, 391-407 Jaffe Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the SGM or any adjournment thereof.
