LAPSE OF PUT OPTIONS
Reference is made to the announcements of the Company dated 27 and 29 January 2014 (the “Announcements”) regarding, among other things, the placing of shares of the Company. Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Announcements.
Under the Placing, 150,000,000 Placing Shares were placed to seven Placees (of which 100,000,000 Placing Shares were taken up by Chow Tai Fook Nominee Limited (“Chow Tai Fook”) and 50,000,000 Placing Shares by the other six Placees) by the Vendor (i.e. New Charming Holdings Limited which is wholly owned by Mr. Yip Mow Lum, the controlling Shareholder as well as the chairman and executive director of the Company). In addition, the Vendor granted the Put Options in favour of the Placees at completion of the Placing, which were exercisable during the period from 27 October 2015 to 27 November 2015 (both dates inclusive) (the “Exercisable Period”).
As informed by the Vendor, none of the Put Options was exercised during the Exercisable Period. Thus, the Put Options are no longer exercisable and have lapsed and ceased to have any effect. As at the date of this announcement, Chow Tai Fook is holding 100,000,000 Shares and remains as the second largest Shareholder of the Company.
