EQUITY FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES IN THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS

4

REASONS FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The Group is principally engaged in civil engineering works and building construction and maintenance works.

As previously disclosed, the Company will plan to start investing in the global carbon neutral business. Such business expansion requires the Company to increase its fund size, with an aim to improve the profit-making abilities and developing abilities of the Group. After having studied the feasibilities of many fund-raising activities, the Company is of the view that (i) save for some minimal professional fees, the Subscriptions will not result in interest costs or other expenses; (ii) a private placement will ensure that the Company can obtain funds of a certain amount within a short time; and (iii) issuance of new Shares by the consideration of cash will improve the financial positions of the Company, such as increasing the liquidity, lowering the gearing ratio and enhancing the risk resistance capacity in a whole. In addition, the Subscription Price and the Subscriptions quantity were made with a reference to the prevailing and recent market prices and trading volume of the Shares. The Board believes that the Subscription Agreements are made on normal commercial terms, are fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The gross proceeds of the Subscriptions will be HK$192,000,000. The net proceeds from the Subscriptions (after deducting all applicable costs and expenses of the Subscriptions) will be approximately HK$192,000,000, of which HK$60,000,000 are intended for the general working capital of the Group and/or the repayment of the debts of the Group, and the remaining HK$132,000,000 are intended to develop the carbon neutral business and/or the exploration of other possible new business. Save for the carbon neutral business which has been disclosed, the Group has not decided to tap into other new businesses. The Company will make appropriate announcements in accordance with the Listing Rules, when there are developments of the new businesses. The net subscription price of each Subscription Share will be approximately HK$4.8.
