The purpose of this supplemental circular is to provide you with further information relating to the resolution to approve the re-election of an additional Director who was appointed after the Latest Practicable Date and accordingly will retire at the 2019 AGM pursuant to the Articles, and to give you a supplemental notice of the 2019 AGM and the Second Proxy Form.

Subsequent to the Latest Practicable Date and as disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 31 January 2019 in relation to, among other things, the change of executive Director and chief executive officer of the Company, Mr. Sung Kin Man (‘‘Mr. Sung’’) was appointed as an executive Director and the chief executive officer of the Company with effect from 1 February 2019. According to article 112 of the Articles, any Director appointed to fill a casual vacancy on the Board shall hold office only until the next following general meeting of the Company and shall then be eligible for re-election at that meeting. Accordingly, Mr. Sung shall retire from office as a Director at the 2019 AGM and he, being eligible, offers himself for re-election. Mr. Sung will be subject to retirement by rotation and re-election at the annual general meetings of the Company at least once every three years.
The biographical details of Mr. Sung are set out below:

He graduated from the University of Southern California and obtained a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Business Administration majoring in finance and minoring in marketing. Mr. Sung has been working in the finance industry and international capital markets in Hong Kong and other parts of Asia since 1994. He has extensive management experience and was an executive director of UBS Securities Asia Ltd., responsible for business in Greater China. He was also a director of the Global Equity Division of Merrill Lynch Asia Inc. from 2005 to 2007. Mr. Sung was an executive director and the chief executive officer of Sino Prosper (Group) Holdings Limited (stock code: 766), a company listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange, from November 2009 to March 2015, and was an executive director of China Netcom Technology Holdings Limited (stock code: 8071), a company listed on the GEM Board of the Stock Exchange, from May 2014 to March 2015.

Save as disclosed above, Mr. Sung has not held any other directorships in any public companies the securities of which are listed on any securities market in Hong Kong or overseas in the three years prior to 27 February 2019, being the latest practicable date before the printing of this supplemental circular for ascertaining certain information for the purpose of inclusion in this supplemental circular (the ‘‘Supplemental Circular Latest Practicable Date’’).

SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND SECOND PROXY FORM
Since the Original Notice and the form of proxy (the ‘‘First Proxy Form’’) sent together with the Circular do not contain the proposed resolution in relation to the re-election of Mr. Sung as a Director as set out in this supplemental circular, a supplemental notice of the 2019 AGM is set out on page 5 of this supplemental circular and the Second Proxy Form is enclosed with this supplemental circular to include such proposed resolution.
Whether or not you are able to attend the 2019 AGM, you are requested to complete the Second Proxy Form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return to same to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited (the ‘‘Share Registrar’’) at Level 22, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the 2019 AGM or any adjourned meeting thereof (the ‘‘Closing Time’’). Completion and return of the Second Proxy Form will not preclude you from subsequently attending and voting in person at the 2019 AGM or any adjournment thereof if you so wish.
A Shareholder who has not yet lodged the First Proxy Form with the Share Registrar is requested to lodge the Second Proxy Form if he/she wishes to appoint proxy(ies) to attend the 2019 AGM on his/her behalf. In this case, the First Proxy Form should not be lodged with the Share Registrar.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
A Shareholder who has already lodged the First Proxy Form with the Share Registrar should note that:
-
(i) subject to (iii) below, if no Second Proxy Form is lodged with the Share Registrar, the First Proxy Form will be treated as a valid form of proxy lodged by him/her if correctly completed. The proxy so appointed by the Shareholder shall be required to vote in such manner as he/she may be directed under the First Proxy Form and, in respect of the resolution for the proposed re-election of Mr. Sung as a Director as set out in the supplemental notice of the 2019 AGM and the Second Proxy Form, the proxy will be entitled to vote at his/her discretion or to abstain from voting on such resolution.
-
(ii) if the Second Proxy Form is lodged with the Share Registrar before the Closing Time, the Second Proxy Form will revoke and supersede the First Proxy Form previously lodged by him/her. The Second Proxy Form will be treated as a valid form of proxy lodged by the Shareholder if correctly completed.
-
(iii) if the Second Proxy Form is lodged with the Share Registrar after the Closing Time, the Second Proxy Form will be invalid. However, it will revoke the First Proxy Form previously lodged by the Shareholder, and any vote that may be cast by the purported proxy (whether appointed under the First Proxy Form or the Second Proxy Form) will not be counted in any poll which will be taken on the proposed resolutions. Accordingly, the Shareholders are advised not to lodge the Second Proxy Form after the Closing Time. If the Shareholders wish to vote at the 2019 AGM, they will have to attend in person and vote at the 2019 AGM themselves.
VOTING BY WAY OF POLL
Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, the vote of the Shareholders at the 2019 AGM will be taken by poll and a scrutineer will be appointed by the Company for vote taking at the 2019 AGM.
