Disposal of Equity Interest in RaySns in Return for Consideration Shares in Kemian
The Board announces that the Share Purchase Agreement was entered into on 23 March 2015 between Kemian (as Purchaser), on the one hand, and Boyaa Shenzhen (an entity controlled by us through certain contractual arrangements) and the Other Vendors (as Vendors), on the other, pursuant to which Kemian agreed to purchase and Boyaa Shenzhen and the Other Vendors agreed to sell their 100% equity interest in RaySns for a total consideration of RMB880,000,000, subject to adjustment. As consideration for the disposal, Boyaa Shenzhen will receive the Consideration Shares, while Other Vendors will receive shares in Kemian and/or cash consideration.
As at the date of the Share Purchase Agreement, the total registered capital of RaySns is RMB10,000,000, of which 16% is held by Boyaa Shenzhen and the remaining 84% is held by the Other Vendors. The Other Vendors are independent third parties. The consideration for the Disposal payable by Kemian to Boyaa Shenzhen is RMB126,719,991.09, subject to adjustment, which shall be satisfied by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being 2,385,093 shares in Kemian with par value of RMB1.00 each, to Boyaa Shenzhen.
— 1 —
As at the date of the Share Purchase Agreement, the total issued share capital of Kemian is RMB222,928,707 divided into 222,928,707 shares of RMB1.00 each. In connection with and for the purpose of the transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement, Kemian proposes to issue and allot 12,422,360 shares with par value of RMB1.00 each as part of the consideration payable by Kemian to the Vendors, of which 2,385,093 shares, the Consideration Shares, shall be issued and allotted to Boyaa Shenzhen. Therefore, upon completion of the transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement, the total issued share capital of Kemian shall become RMB235,351,067 divided into 235,351,067 shares of RMB1.00 each, of which Boyaa Shenzhen shall hold 2,385,093 shares, representing approximately 1.01% of the enlarged issued share capital of Kemian.
The transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement involve, among others, at the same time (i) disposal of equity interest in RaySns by Boyaa Shenzhen to Kemian, and (ii) receiving Consideration Shares to be issued and allotted by Kemian to Boyaa Shenzhen, thus acquisition of equity interest in Kemian. As the applicable percentage ratios set out in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of each of the Disposal and the acquisition of Consideration Shares under the Share Purchase Agreement is below 5%, neither the Disposal nor the acquisition of Consideration Shares constitutes a notifiable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
This announcement is made by the Company voluntarily.
Shareholders and potential investors of the Company should note that the Disposal and the acquisition of Consideration Shares are subject to the conditions precedents being satisfied and therefore may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.
The Board announces that the Share Purchase Agreement was entered into on 23 March 2015 between Kemian (as Purchaser), on the one hand, and Boyaa Shenzhen (an entity controlled by us through certain contractual arrangements) and the Other Vendors (as Vendors), on the other, pursuant to which Kemian agreed to purchase and Boyaa Shenzhen and the Other Vendors agreed to sell their 100% equity interest in RaySns for a total consideration of RMB880,000,000, subject to adjustment. As consideration for the disposal, Boyaa Shenzhen will receive the Consideration Shares, while Other Vendors will receive shares in Kemian and/or cash consideration.

THE SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Date
23 March 2015
Parties
Purchaser: Kemian Vendors: Boyaa Shenzhen Other Vendors
Consideration
As at the date of the Share Purchase Agreement, 16% equity interest in RaySns is held by Boyaa Shenzhen and the remaining 84% is held by the Other Vendors.
The total consideration for the 100% equity interest in RaySns is RMB880,000,000, subject to adjustment, which was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the parties with reference to the financial and operational performance of RaySns for the ten-month period ended 31 October 2014. Boyaa Shenzhen will receive the Consideration Shares, while Other Vendors will receive shares in Kemian and/or cash consideration.

The consideration for the Disposal payable by Kemian to Boyaa Shenzhen is RMB126,719,991.09, subject to adjustment, which was determined after arm’s length negotiation between Kemian and Boyaa Shenzhen and shall be satisfied by the issue and allotment of the Consideration Shares, being 2,385,093 shares in Kemian with par value of RMB1.00 each, to Boyaa Shenzhen. Thus, the price per each Consideration Share is RMB53.13, which represents the weighted average price of shares of Kemian for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the sixth meeting of the third session of the board of Kemian, that is 23 March 2015. The consideration of RMB126,719,991.09 represents approximately 10% discount to Boyaa Shenzhen’s 16% share of the total consideration of RMB880,000,000. This is because the considerations received by certain Other Vendors are subject to downward adjustment if certain financial benchmarks of RaySns for the years 2015 to 2017 cannot be met, whereas consideration payable to Boyaa Shenzhen is not subject to such adjustment. The trading in shares of Kemian on Shenzhen Stock Exchange has been suspended since 31 October 2014 and remains suspended as at the date of the Share Purchase Agreement. The latest price of shares of Kemian as quoted in Shenzhen Stock Exchange before its suspension of trading is RMB57.50.
The total consideration under the Share Purchase Agreement for the 100% equity interest in RaySns is subject to adjustment. The parties to the Share Purchase Agreement agreed that a licensed accounting firm with requisite securities business qualification shall be engaged to carry out completion audit on RaySns and prepare an audit report (the “ Audit Report ”) for the period commencing from 1 November 2014 to the last calendar day of the month in which the transactions under the Share Purchase Agreement are completed and as of this date. If the net assets value of RaySns as shown in the Audit Report is lower than that as of 31 October 2014, the Vendors shall pay such shortfall to Kemian in cash proportionate to their respective shareholdings in RaySns as at the date of the Share Purchase Agreement. Separately, Mr. Wang Meng, one of the Other Vendors, has undertaken to Boyaa Shenzhen that he, in place of Boyaa Shenzhen, will pay Kemian the shortfall amount that Boyaa Shenzhen is responsible for under the Share Purchase Agreement.

INFORMATION ON RAYSNS
RaySns is primarily engaged in Internet and online games development in the PRC.

Boyaa Shenzhen invested a total amount of RMB2,000,000 in RaySns and became a 30% equity holder of RaySns in April 2011. In November 2012, the registered capital of RaySns was increased and as a result, the equity interest in RaySns held by Boyaa Shenzhen was diluted from 30% to 24%, which resulted in a dilution gain of approximately RMB941,000 recognized for the year ended 31 December 2012. In February 2013, 8% equity interest held by the Boyaa Shenzhen in RaySns was repurchased by RaySns at a consideration of RMB2,000,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately RMB854,000 for the year ended 31 December 2013.

In July 2014, Kemian completed a major assets restructuring and subsequently the business of Kemian changed from processing, manufacturing and sale of wooden floor and other wood products to its current business, being research and development and publication of web-based games and mobile games. Therefore, the above financial information of Kemian for the year ended 31 December 2013 only reflects the performance of Kemian’s discontinued business, while the financial information of Kemian for the year ended 31 December 2014 reflects partially the performance of Kemian’s discontinued business and partially its current business.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Upon completion of the transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement, Boyaa Shenzhen will receive as consideration 2,385,093 shares in Kemian and the Group’s investment in RaySns will need to be remeasured at fair value and be transferred to available-for-sale financial assets (representing the 2,385,093 shares in Kemian that Boyaa Shenzhen shall hold then). Assuming that the fair value of the Group’s investment in RaySns on the Completion Date would be equal to the current consideration of RMB126,719,991.09, and with reference to the carrying value of the Group’s investment in RaySns as at 31 December 2014 (the “ Carrying Value ”), there would be a pre-tax revaluation gain of RMB116,181,449.21, being the difference between the consideration of RMB126,719,991.09 and the Carrying Value of RMB10,538,541.88, to be recorded in profit or loss on the Completion Date.
REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTIONS
The transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement were initiated and negotiated by RaySns’s major shareholder and Kemian is interested in purchasing the entire equity interest of RaySns. Having considered the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Directors are of the view that the consideration is acceptable and it is desirable for the Company to dispose of its equity interest in RaySns, which in the opinion of the Directors is in the interests of the Company and the Company’s shareholders as a whole.
LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS
The transactions contemplated under the Share Purchase Agreement involve, among others, at the same time (i) disposal of equity interest in RaySns by Boyaa Shenzhen to Kemian, and (ii) receiving Consideration Shares to be issued and allotted by Kemian to Boyaa Shenzhen, thus acquisition of equity interest in Kemian. As the applicable percentage ratios set out in Rule 14.07 of the Listing Rules in respect of each of the Disposal and the acquisition of Consideration Shares under the Share Purchase Agreement is below 5%, neither the Disposal nor the acquisition of Consideration Shares constitutes a notifiable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.
The Directors (including independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Disposal and the acquisition of Consideration Shares are in the interests of the Company and the Company’s shareholders as a whole, and that the Share Purchase Agreement was entered into after arm’s length negotiation among the Company and Kemian, and that the terms of the Disposal and acquisition of Consideration Shares are fair and reasonable.
