EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement given to all the Shareholders, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. LISTING RULES FOR REPURCHASES OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their fully-paid shares subject to certain restrictions, the more important of which are summarised below:

(a) Share capital

Under the Repurchase Mandate, the number of Shares that the Company may repurchase shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company at the date of the passing of the relevant resolutions granting the Repurchase Mandate. The Company’s authority is restricted to purchase in accordance with the Listing Rules. As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were in issue an aggregate of 702,356,000 Shares. Exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate, on the basis that no further Shares would be issued or repurchased prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting, would accordingly result in up to 70,235,600 Shares being repurchased by the Company. The Shares repurchased by the Company shall, subject to applicable law, be automatically cancelled upon such repurchase.

(b) Reasons for repurchase

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the Repurchase Mandate will provide the Company the flexibility to make such repurchase when appropriate and is beneficial to the Company. Such repurchases may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or its earnings per Share. As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2009 (being the date of its latest audited accounts), the Directors consider that there would not be any material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. In the circumstances, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing ratio of the Company.

– 10 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX

(c) Funding of repurchases

Repurchase of the Shares will be funded out of funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the memorandum of association and bye-laws of the Company and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

(d) Directors, their associates and connected persons

None of the Directors nor, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates has any present intention, in the event that the proposed Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company.

At the Latest Practicable Date, no connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor has he/she undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted.

(e) Undertaking of the Directors

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in the proposed resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

(f) Effect of the Takeovers Code

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder’s interests, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become(s) obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

– 11 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the register of the substantial Shareholders maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 336 under Part XV of the SFO showed that the Company has been notified of the following interests, being 5% or more of the Company’s issued share capital:

Approximate
