The Public Offer comprises of 267,000,000 Shares, representing 100% of the total Offer Shares.
Application has been made by the Company through its Sole Sponsor, Alliance Capital Partners Limited, which is located at Room 1502–1503A, Wing On House, 71 Des Voeux Road Central, Central, Hong Kong, to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares in issue and to be issued pursuant to the Public Offer, the Capitalisation Issue and upon the exercise of any options which may be granted under the Share Option Scheme. Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares on GEM as mentioned in the Prospectus and the compliance with the stock admission requirements of HKSCC, the Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the Listing Date, or on any other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange is required to take place in CCASS on the second Business Day after any trading day. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. All necessary arrangements have been made for the Shares to be admitted into CCASS.
The Offer Price per Offer Share will not be more than HK$0.35 and is expected to be not less than HK$0.25. The Offer Price is expected to be fixed by the Price Determination Agreement between the Joint Lead Managers (for themselves and on behalf of the Underwriters) and the Company (for itself and on behalf of the Selling Shareholders) on the Price Determination Date. The Price Determination Date is scheduled to be on or about Tuesday, 7 March 2017 and, in any event, not later than Wednesday, 8 March 2017. If, for any reason, the Joint Lead Managers (for themselves and on behalf of the Underwriters) and the Company (for itself and on behalf of the Selling Shareholders) are unable to reach an agreement on the Offer Price by Wednesday, 8 March 2017, the Public Offer will not become unconditional and will lapse.
Applicants for the Offer Shares are required to pay, on application, the maximum Offer Price of HK$0.35 per Share together with brokerage fee of 1%, the SFC transaction levy of 0.0027% and the Stock Exchange trading fee of 0.005%, subject to refund if the Offer Price as finally determined is less than HK$0.35 per Offer Share.
The Public Offer is conditional upon the fulfillment of the conditions as set out in the subsection headed ‘‘Structure and Conditions of the Public Offer — Conditions of the Public Offer’’ in the Prospectus. If such conditions are not fulfilled (or, where applicable, waived) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement on or before the dates and times as specified therein, the Public Offer will lapse and thereafter, all money received will be refunded to applicants without interest and the Stock Exchange will be notified immediately. Notice of the lapse of the Public Offer will be published by the Company on the Stock Exchange’s website at www.hkexnews.hk and the Company’s website at www.chdev.com.hk on the next Business Day immediately following the date of such lapse.
Prospective investors should note that the Joint Lead Managers (for themselves and on behalf of the Underwriters) are entitled to terminate their obligations under the Underwriting Agreement by giving notice in writing to the Company upon the occurrence of any of the events set out in the sub-section headed ‘‘Underwriting — Underwriting Arrangements and Expenses — Grounds for termination’’ in the Prospectus at any time prior to 8:00 a.m. (Hong Kong time) on the Listing Date, i.e. Monday, 13 March 2017.
