CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been established as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

PROPOSED SPIN-OFF AND SEPARATE LISTING OF JADE BIRD FIRE ALARM ON THE SHENZHEN STOCK EXCHANGE AND POSSIBLE VERY SUBSTANTIAL DISPOSAL

INTRODUCTION

References are made to the announcements of the Company dated 17 December 2012 and 1 February 2013 on the Proposed Spin-off by way of a separate listing of the Fire Alarm Business under Jade Bird Fire Alarm, a subsidiary of the Company, on the SME Board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Jade Bird Fire Alarm is a 51.02% non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide, among other things, (i) information on the Proposed Spin-off and the proposal to waive the assured entitlement; (ii) the financial information of Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group; (iii) the unaudited financial information of the Remaining Group; (iv) the recommendation of the Independent Board Committee and the advice of the Independent Financial Adviser regarding the Proposed Spin-off and the proposal to waive the assured entitlement; and (v) a notice of the SGM.

THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF AND THE PROPOSED A SHARE LISTING

Subject to approvals by the Shareholders and the relevant PRC regulators, it is currently proposed that Jade Bird Fire Alarm will issue A shares by way of initial public offering in the PRC. The equity interest in Jade Bird Fire Alarm is currently held as to 51.02% by the Company and as to the remaining 48.98% by certain individuals who are the existing and former senior management and staff of Jade Bird Fire Alarm and other individual shareholders. Assuming that the A shares to be issued amount to 25% of the issued share capital of Jade Bird Fire Alarm, it is expected that immediately upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be diluted to approximately 38.27% and Jade Bird Fire Alarm will cease to be a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Subject to market conditions at the time of the Proposed A Share Listing, the offer price per A share of Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be determined in accordance with the relevant PRC laws and regulations relating to A share listing, which will be determined by a book-building process with reference to the prices quoted by target subscribers or by other methods to be determined between the issuer and the lead underwriter. In accordance with the requirements of the relevant PRC laws and regulations, there will not be a floor price for the Proposed A Share Listing.

In preparation for the Proposed A Share Listing, Jade Bird Fire Alarm has been converted from a limited liability company into a joint stock limited company in the PRC on 26 December 2012. No formal application for the Proposed A Share Listing has been filed yet, and in accordance with the procedures for applying for A shares listing, the Company has filed the counselling materials for listing with the local CSRC bureau and has commenced the counselling period. Considering the long list of applicants for listing in the PRC and the regulatory approvals required to be obtained and assuming the PRC authorities resume public offering and listing on the domestic exchanges, the Directors expect that the Proposed A Share Listing may take place in late 2013 or early 2014.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Investment holding business

The Remaining Group is also engaged in fund, debt and equity investments. It has invested in two private equity funds, namely, SBI & BDJB China Fund, L.P. and Beijing Jade Bird Hengsheng Investment Fund (Limited Partnership), which have invested in non-public companies in the PRC, with businesses ranging from the provision of information technology vocational education, insurance business, development and manufacturing of LED, baby products retailing business to property development. The Remaining Group has also invested in certain convertible bonds issued by a company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and in the equity interest in a listed company in Hong Kong, and in the equity interest in a non-public company in the PRC which is engaged in development and manufacturing of LED.

Other businesses

The Remaining Group is engaged in provision of network security services and production and sales of wine and related products.

Upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off, the Company will continue with the businesses of the Remaining Group. Currently, the Directors do not have any specific plan for expansion or development of the business of the Remaining Group, but will formulate more specific plans when opportunities arise.

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF ON THE GROUP

Upon the completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be diluted from 51.02% to approximately 38.27% and Jade Bird Fire Alarm will cease to be a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will no longer be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Remaining Group and the consolidated net assets and the results of Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be accounted for in the Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method. It is expected that the consolidated net assets of the Remaining Group will be increased as a result of the issue of A shares by Jade Bird Fire Alarm at a price above their attributable underlying consolidated net asset value. The actual gain to be recognised by the Remaining Group will be determined based on the issue price and the number of the A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm to be issued and the consolidated net asset value of Jade Bird Fire Alarm as of the completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing.

Set out in Appendix III to this circular is the unaudited pro forma financial information on the Remaining Group which illustrates the financial impact of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing on the results and the cash flows of the Remaining Group assuming the Proposed A Share Listing had been completed on 1 January 2011 and the financial impact of the Proposed A Share Listing on the assets and liabilities of the Remaining Group assuming the Proposed A Share Listing had been completed on 30 June 2012.

– 10 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

For illustrative purpose only, based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income of the Remaining Group, the Remaining Group would recognize a gain of approximately RMB549.17 million assuming the Proposed Spin-off had been completed on 1 January 2011. The expected gain is calculated based on a set of assumptions as set out in Appendix III to this circular and is for illustration purpose only, the actual gain to be recognized by the Remaining Group as a result of the Proposed A Share Listing will depend on, among other things, the offer price and the number of A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm to be issued at the time of the Proposed A Share Listing.

For illustrative purpose only, based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position of the Remaining Group, as at 30 June 2012, the total assets of the Remaining Group would have increased to RMB1,556.9 million and its total liabilities will decrease to RMB87.3 million, had the Proposed A Share Listing been completed on 30 June 2012.

Investors should be aware that the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group in Appendix III has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2012 or the results and cash flows for the year ended 31 December 2011 of the Remaining Group will actually be or to give a true picture of the financial position of the Remaining Group had the Proposed A Share Listing been completed as at those dates.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF

Jade Bird Fire Alarm specializes in the research, development, manufacture and sale of wireless fire alarm and interactive control systems as well as the provision of related after-sales services. The Proposed A Share Listing will have clear commercial benefits to both the Company and Jade Bird Fire Alarm and is in the interest of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole for the following reasons:

  • Enhanced domestic market profile and growth potential: There is a great potential for electronic fire alarm system in the PRC domestic market, both in terms of the market size and potential for further growth. The Proposed A Share Listing will increase the profile and reputation of Jade Bird Fire Alarm in the domestic market, and would therefore enhance Jade Bird Fire Alarm’s ability and chances to capture such potential market growth, which means a potential increase in the market share and sales of Jade Bird Fire Alarm. In addition, the increased profile and reputation due to the Proposed A Share Listing will also create more opportunities for Jade Bird Fire Alarm to participate in medium to large sized fire alarm projects in the domestic and international markets;

  • A focused and efficient business: The Proposed A Share Listing will allow Jade Bird Fire Alarm to create a more defined business focus and efficient resource allocation, which in turn will help Jade Bird Fire Alarm develop into a first class professional fire alarm device company with its own integrated research and development, manufacture, sales and services;

– 11 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • Value accretive to the Company and its shareholders: The separate listing of the Fire Alarm Business will unlock value for the Company’s Shareholders and better identify and establish the fair value of the Fire Alarm Business. It is anticipated that this value will represent an enhancement to its existing value within the confines of the Company’s listing, which will, in turn, increase the value of the shares in the Company to the benefit of all of the Company’s Shareholders. In addition, A share listed companies on average trades at a higher valuation multiple, therefore the Proposed A Share Listing will likely to be value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders;

  • Greater flexibility to Jade Bird Fire Alarm’s business operation: The Proposed A Share Listing will deliver greater shareholder value to the Company and the Shareholders because (a) Jade Bird Fire Alarm will enjoy enhanced flexibility to grow its business and to further build on its reputation and be in a better position to negotiate and solicit more business; and (b) Jade Bird Fire Alarm will enjoy an increased ability to pursue its own business;

  • Broadening financing channels: The Proposed A Share Listing will enable Jade Bird Fire Alarm to have direct access to the domestic capital market, thus widening the financing channels available and increasing the financing ability of Jade Bird Fire Alarm;

  • Greater business clarity: The Proposed A Share Listing will provide investors, rating agencies and the market in general with greater clarity on the business and financial status of the Fire Alarm Business; and

  • Create own investor base for fire alarm business: The Proposed A Share Listing will enable Jade Bird Fire Alarm to attract its own strategic and corporate investors, therefore creating its own investor base and market following.

ASSURED ENTITLEMENT

In accordance with the requirements of the GEM Listing Rules, the Board is required to give due regard to the interests of the existing Shareholders of the Company by providing the Shareholders with an assured entitlement to the A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm, if the Proposed A Share Listing proceeds. After due and careful consideration of the Proposed Spin-off and having taken into account the advice from the Company’s PRC legal counsel, the Board has resolved not to provide assured entitlement to the Shareholders under the Proposed Spin-off for the following reasons:

  • the A shares to be issued by Jade Bird Fire Alarm, if the Proposed Spin-off proceeds, will be offered by way of initial public offering in the PRC domestic market only and the A shares will only be listed and traded on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and no other stock exchange for the time being; and

– 12 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • as such, under the current PRC laws and regulations, foreigner investors (other than qualified foreign institutional investors and some other exceptions) including Shareholders holding H Shares of the Company are restricted from subscribing for or trading in A shares listed on any of the PRC domestic stock exchanges.

By reason of the legal restrictions in offering PRC listed shares to foreign investors, including the proposed offering of the A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm to the Shareholders holding H Shares of the Company, the Board will propose a resolution for approval by the minority Shareholders at the SGM of a waiver of the assured entitlement under the Proposed Spin-off.

Shenzhen Beida Jade Bird Technology Co., Ltd. and Beijing Beida Jade Bird Limited, which in aggregate hold 16.88% interest in the Company, will abstain from voting at the SGM on the proposed resolution relating to the waiver of the assured entitlement. Any substantial Shareholder or any Shareholder who is a Director or Supervisor or any of his/her/its associates or any promoter of the Company will also abstain from voting at the SGM on the proposed resolution relating to the waiver of the assured entitlement.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF

The Company submitted an application for the Proposed Spin-off to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in November 2012. The Proposed Spin-off will be by way of a separate listing of the Fire Alarm Business of Jade Bird Fire Alarm on the SME Board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. In December 2012, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange confirmed that the Company may proceed with the Proposed Spin-off.

Subject to approvals by the Shareholders and the relevant PRC regulators, it is currently proposed that Jade Bird Fire Alarm will issue A shares by way of initial public offering in the PRC. Assuming that the A shares to be issued amount to 25% of the issued share capital of Jade Bird Fire Alarm, it is expected that immediately upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be reduced from approximately 51.02% to approximately 38.27% and Jade Bird Fire Alarm will cease to be a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

The segment profit of the development of travel and leisure business declined by approximately RMB6.2 million, approximately 61.4%, for the six months ended 30 June 2012 was mainly due to, as stated in the quarterly report for the six months ended 30 June 2012, cold weather for the first half of the year, which adversely affected the bus service provision by the Group.

The decrease in segment profit of the development of travel and leisure business by approximately RMB23.8 million, or approximately 42.1%, for the year ended 31 December 2011 was mainly due to most of the interests in Zhang Jia Jie Tourism Development Co., Ltd. was disposed of at a gain of approximately RMB21.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2010, whereas only a minority interest in Zhang Jia Jie Tourism Development Co., Ltd. was disposed of at a gain of approximately RMB3.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.

Year ended 31 December 2010 compared to year ended 31 December 2009

The significant increase in the segment profit of investment holding by approximately RMB47.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2010 was mainly attributable to the abovementioned gain on disposal of approximately RMB55.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2010.

The gross profit margin of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group decreased from approximately 42.0% for the nine months ended 30 September 2011 to approximately 38.7% for the nine months ended 30 September 2012.

The Proposed A Share Listing will increase the profile and reputation of Jade Bird Fire Alarm in the domestic market, and would therefore enhance Jade Bird Fire Alarm’s ability and chances to capture such potential market growth, which means a potential increase in the market share and sales of Jade Bird Fire Alarm. In addition, the increased profile and reputation due to the Proposed A Share Listing will also create more opportunities for Jade Bird Fire Alarm to participate in medium to large sized fire alarm projects in the domestic and international markets;

  • A focused and efficient business : The Proposed A Share Listing will allow Jade Bird Fire Alarm to create a more defined business focus and efficient resource allocation, which in turn will help Jade Bird Fire Alarm develop into a first class professional fire alarm device company with its own integrated research and development, manufacture, sales and services;

  • Value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders : The separate listing of the Fire Alarm Business will unlock value for the Shareholders and better identify and establish the fair value of the Fire Alarm Business. It is anticipated that this value will represent an enhancement to its existing value within the confines of the Company’s listing, which will, in turn, increase the value of the shares in the Company to the benefit of all of the Shareholders. In addition, A share listed companies on average trades at a higher valuation multiple, therefore the Proposed A Share Listing will likely to be value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders;

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

  • Greater flexibility to Jade Bird Fire Alarm’s business operation : The Proposed A Share Listing will deliver greater shareholder value to the Company and the Shareholders because (a) Jade Bird Fire Alarm will enjoy enhanced flexibility to grow its business and to further build on its reputation and be in a better position to negotiate and solicit more business; and (b) Jade Bird Fire Alarm will enjoy an increased ability to pursue its own business;

  • Broadening financing channels : The Proposed A Share Listing will enable Jade Bird Fire Alarm to have direct access to the domestic capital market, thus widening the financing channels available and increasing the financing ability of Jade Bird Fire Alarm;

  • Greater business clarity : The Proposed A Share Listing will provide the investors, the market in general and rating agencies with greater clarity on the business and financial status of the Fire Alarm Business; and

  • Create own investor base for fire alarm business : The Proposed A Share Listing will enable Jade Bird Fire Alarm to attract its own strategic and corporate investors, therefore creating its own investor base and market following.

3.1 Value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders

Considering the long list of applicants for listing in the PRC and the regulatory approvals required to be obtained and assuming the PRC authorities resume public offering and listing on the domestic exchanges, the Directors expect that the Proposed A Share Listing may take place in late 2013 or early 2014.

As stated in the “Letter from the Board”, subject to market conditions at the time of the Proposed A Share Listing, the offer price per A share will be determined in accordance with the relevant PRC laws and regulations relating to A share listing, which will be determined by a book-building process with reference to the prices quoted by target subscribers or by other methods to be determined between the issuer and the lead underwriter.

In order to provide the Shareholders information regarding the valuation of companies that are engaged in businesses similar to the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group, we set out below the price-to-earnings ratio (the “ P/E ratio ”) for each of the companies that are engaged in manufacture and sale of fire prevention and/or fighting products mainly in PRC and the shares of which are listed on any of the PRC stock exchanges or the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Based on above criteria and the information available from the websites of the stock exchanges and Bloomberg, we have identified three comparables companies (the “ Comparables ”).

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

A shares listed companies on average trades at a higher valuation multiple than Hong Kong listed companies. This is illustrated by the fact that the average P/E ratio of the equities listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange was 24.0 times which was higher than that of the equities listed on the Hong kong Stock Exchange of 18.0 times as at the Latest Practicable Date.

The Directors have confirmed that even if the Proposed Spin-off and the Waiver are approved by the Shareholders at the SGM and the other conditions are fulfilled, the final decision of the Board as to whether or not to proceed with the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing will continue to be subject to market conditions and pricing. The Company will proceed with the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing only if the Board considers that the terms (including the offer price) of the Proposed A Share Listing are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders.

Based on the aforesaid, we concur with the Directors’ view that the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing will likely to be value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders.

3.2 Other advantages of obtaining a separate listing status

The Proposed A Share Listing will increase Jade Bird Fire Alarm’s exposure to domestic investors and extend its financing avenues to the domestic market. It is intended that the proceeds for the Proposed A Share Listing will be applied for upgrading, expansion and construction of manufacturing facilities; research and development of new products; and establishment of sales networks. Taking into consideration of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group’s business growth in recent years as stated in the section headed “Information on the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group” above and the intended use of net proceeds, we consider that the Proposed A Share Listing is beneficial to the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group and, in turn, beneficial to the Remaining Group.

Furthermore, we consider that the Proposed A Share Listing will increase the profile of Jade Bird Fire Alarm in the domestic market that may result in a potential increase in its sales.

In light of the foregoing, we concur with the Directors’ view that the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing will have clear commercial benefits to both the Company and Jade Bird Fire Alarm and the Proposed Spin-off is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

4. PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE PROPOSED A SHARE LISTING

4.1 Percentage of A shares to be issued

We understand that it is currently proposed that Jade Bird Fire Alarm will issue A shares representing 25% of the enlarged issued share capital of Jade Bird Fire Alarm upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing. Assuming that the A shares to be issued amount to 25% of the issued share capital of Jade Bird Fire Alarm as enlarged by the Proposed A Share Listing, it is expected that immediately upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be reduced from approximately 51.02% to approximately 38.27%. In the absence of other arrangements, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will cease to be a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Directors have confirmed that the Group will hold no less than 20% equity interest in Jade Bird Fire Alarm immediately upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing. As such, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be an associate of the Company, which will be accounted for in the Remaining Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method. The Remaining Group would benefit from any future business growth of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group after completion of the Proposed A Share Listing.

4.2 Offer price

Our analysis on the offer price is set out in the sub-section headed “Value accretive to the Company and the Shareholders” above.

Based on the aforesaid, we consider that the principal terms of the Proposed A Share Listing are fair and reasonable.

5. THE REMAINING GROUP

After the Proposed Spin-off, the Remaining Group will continue its existing businesses which comprise the development of travel and leisure business and investment holding. The Remaining Group will also have an equity interest in the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group.

5.1 Development of travel and leisure business

The Group’s development of travel and leisure business is operated by Chuanqi Tourism Investment Co., Ltd. (“ Chuanqi Tourism ”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Chuanqi Toursim Group ”). The Chuanqi Tourism Group is the operator of the environment tourist bus services at Hengshan Mountain, Hengyang, Hunan Province, the PRC.

In addition, the Chuanqi Tourism Group is also (i) engaged in management of certain properties owned by the local government in the Hengshan Mountain

scenic area; (ii) through its associate, engaged in investment and development of infrastructure projects, tourism and hotel, and currently, through subcontracting, provides construction services for the development of a piece of land of approximately 5,000 mu around the Songya Lake scenic area in Changsha, Hunan Province, the PRC; and (iii) through an investment, engaged in the restaurant and beverage business. Demolition and relocation process of Songya Lake Huanhu Project was commenced in the first half of 2012 and is still in progress.

As disclosed in the “Financial Information of the Group” set out in Appendix I to the Circular, the Company intends that besides striving for high bus service utilisation rate, the Group will continue to diversify the tourism development business through participating in relating projects. On 25 January 2013, the Group entered into a cooperation agreement in relation to the formation of a joint venture company in the PRC for the purpose of joint development of 長白山文化創意產業園 (Changbai Mountain Culture Creative Park) located at Chibei District, Jilin Province, the PRC, including, among others, 4-dimensional cinema(s), theme restaurant(s) and travel product shop(s) and resort(s).

5.2 Investment holding business

The Remaining Group is also engaged in fund, debt and equity investments. It has invested in two private equity funds, namely, SBI & BDJB China Fund, L.P. and Beijing Beida Jade Bird Hengsheng Investment Fund (Limited Partnership), which have invested and will invest in non-public companies in the PRC, with businesses ranging from the provision of information technology vocational education, insurance business, development and manufacturing of LED, baby products retailing business to property development. The Remaining Group has also invested in certain convertible bonds issued by a company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the equity interest in a listed company in Hong Kong, and the equity interests in a non-public company in the PRC which is engaged in development and manufacturing of LED.

5.3 Other businesses

The Remaining Group is engaged in provision of network security services and production and sales of wine and related products.

Upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off, the Company will continue with the businesses of the Remaining Group. Currently, the Directors do not have any specific plan for expansion or development of the business of the Remaining Group, but will formulate more specific plans when opportunities arise.

We consider that there is a clear delineation between the businesses of the Remaining Group and the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group.

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

6. FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SPIN-OFF ON THE REMAINING GROUP

The following analysis is based on the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group as disclosed in Appendix III to the Circular. Shareholders should note that the unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group has been prepared based on a number of assumptions, estimates, uncertainties and currently available information for illustrative purpose only to illustrate the financial effect that the Proposed Spin-off might have on the Remaining Group. The unaudited pro forma financial information of the Remaining Group is prepared based on certain assumptions, among other things, 20 million A shares will be issued under the Proposed A Share Listing at an indicative offer price of RMB18.90 per A share. It is estimated that total proceeds of approximately RMB378 million will be raised.

Under the above scenario, 20 million A shares will be issued, representing 25% of the enlarged issued capital of Jade Bird Fire Alarm immediately upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing. Based on the indicative offer price of RMB18.9 per A share and 20 million A shares to be issued, Jade Bird Fire Alarm is valued at approximately RMB1,512 million. The implied P/E ratio is about 33.3 times based on profit for the year attributable to the owners of Jade Bird Fire Alarm of approximately RMB45.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.

Subject to market conditions at the time of the Proposed A Share Listing, the offer price per A share of Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be determined by a book-building process with reference to the prices quoted by target subscribers or by other methods to be determined between Jade Bird Fire Alarm and the lead underwriter. Shareholders should be aware that the indicative offer price per A share and the number of A shares to be issued are for illustrative purpose only and was based on a number of assumptions which may have changed substantially at the time of the Proposed A Share Listing. As such, the total proceeds raised as abovementioned is also for illustrative purpose only. The actual proceeds raised, if the Proposed A Share Listing is completed, may vary substantially from the total proceeds estimated above.

Under the above scenario, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be diluted from approximately 51.02% to approximately 38.27% upon the completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing. In the absence of other arrangements, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will cease to be a non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the results of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group will no longer be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Remaining Group. The results of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group will be accounted for in the Remaining Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method.

6.1 Net assets value

Based on the unaudited consolidated financial position of the Group as disclosed in the Company’s second quarterly report of 2012, the net assets value of the Group was approximately RMB998.3 million as at 30 June 2012.

– 34 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

Assuming that the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing had taken place on 30 June 2012, the net assets value of the Remaining Group would have increased to approximately RMB1,469.6 million based on the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of financial position of the Remaining Group. The substantial increase in net assets value was principally attributable to the estimated interests in Jade Bird Fire Alarm of approximately RMB578.6 million based on the estimated offer price, the estimated number of A shares in issue immediately upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing and the Remaining Group’s 38.27% interest in Jade Bird Fire Alarm.

6.2 Earnings

Based on the audited consolidated comprehensive income of the Group as disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2011, the profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company was approximately RMB36.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.

Assuming that the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing had taken place on 1 January 2011, the profit attributable to owners of the Company for the year would have increased to approximately RMB578.1 million. The estimated gain on the Proposed Spin-off of approximately RMB549.2 million resulted in the substantial increase in profit attributable to owners of the Company.

As discussed above, the interest of the Company in Jade Bird Fire Alarm will be diluted from approximately 51.02% to approximately 38.27% upon completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing under the scenario. In the absence of other arrangements, the results of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group will no longer be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Remaining Group and will be accounted for in the Remaining Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method. Under the equity method, the Remaining Group’s share of profits or losses of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group after completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing will be recognised in its consolidated profit or loss. It is intended that the net proceeds to be raised from the Proposed A Share Listing will be used for upgrading, expansion and construction of manufacturing facilities; research and development of new products; and establishment of sales networks. The future financial performance of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group will depend on the continued success of existing products as well as the successful execution of the aforesaid growth strategies. As such, it is difficult to predict the impact on the Group’s future earnings as a result of the decrease in its shareholding interest in Jade Bird Fire Alarm following completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing.

6.3 Working capital

Based on the audited consolidated statement of cash flows of the Group as disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2011, the balance of cash and cash equivalents of the Group was approximately RMB227.1 million as at 31 December 2011.

– 35 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

Assuming that the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing had taken place on 1 January 2011, the balance of cash and cash equivalents of the Remaining Group would have decreased to approximately RMB132.6 million due to the results of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group will no longer be consolidated into the consolidated financial statements of the Remaining Group after completion of the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing.

It is noted that the Directors are of the opinions that, having regard to the financial resources available to the Group, including internally generated funds, the Remaining Group will have sufficient working capital for its present requirements for the next twelve months from the date of the Circular.

In light of the foregoing, we consider that the Proposed A Share Listing would unlock value for the Shareholders and, therefore, it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

7. ASSURED ENTITLEMENT AND THE WAIVER

According to Practice Note 3 of the GEM Listing Rules, the Company is required to give due regard to the interests of the Shareholders by providing an assured entitlement to the A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm, if the Proposed A Share Listing proceeds.

The Board has considered the advice from the Company’s PRC legal counsel and resolved not to provide assured entitlement to the Shareholders under the Proposed Spin-off for the following reasons:

  • the A shares to be issued by Jade Bird Fire Alarm, if the Proposed Spin-off proceeds, will be offered by way of initial public offering in the PRC domestic market only and the A shares of Jade Bird Fire Alarm will only be listed and traded on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and no other stock exchange for the time being; and

  • under the current PRC laws and regulations, foreigner investors (other than qualified foreign institutional investors and some other exceptions) including Shareholders holding the H Shares are restricted from subscribing for or trading in A shares listed on any of the PRC domestic stock exchanges.

Due to the legal restrictions, it is impossible for the Shareholders to participate in the Proposed A Share Listing directly. The Waiver is subject to approval by minority Shareholders. Despite the fact that the assured entitlement will not be provided to the Shareholders under the Proposed Spin-off, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will become an associate of the Company immediately upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing in the absence of other arrangements, which will be accounted for in the Remaining Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method and thus the Shareholders could benefit from any future growth of the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group.

– 36 –

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR

RECOMMENDATION

Having considered the above principal factors and reasons and in particular the following (which should be read in conjunction with and interpreted in the full context of this letter):

  • (a) the Proposed A Share Listing would unlock value for the Company as A share listed companies on average trades at a higher valuation multiple than Hong Kong listed companies;

  • (b) the Company will proceed with the Proposed Spin-off and the Proposed A Share Listing only if the Board considers that the terms (including the offer price) of the Proposed A Share Listing are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole;

  • (c) the Company will hold no less than 20% equity interest in Jade Bird Fire Alarm immediately upon completion of the Proposed A Share Listing. In the absence of other arrangements, Jade Bird Fire Alarm will become an associate of the Company and the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group’s results will be accounted for in the Remaining Group’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method;

  • (d) it is intended that the net proceeds raised from the Proposed A Share Listing will be used for upgrading, expansion and construction of manufacturing facilities; research and development of new products; and establishment of sales networks; and

  • (e) there is a clear delineation between the businesses of the Remaining Group and the Jade Bird Fire Alarm Group,

we consider the terms of the Proposed Spin-off and the Waiver are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, we advise the Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the SGM to approve the Proposed Spin-off and the minority Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the SGM to approve the Waiver.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of Quam Capital Limited Noelle Hung
