LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Issuance Mandate to the Directors; (iv) the extension of the Issuance Mandate by adding to it the number of shares repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Mandate; and (v) the re-election of retiring Directors.

2. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE CURRENT BYE-LAWS

The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) has amended the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange (the “Listing Rules”) relating to, among other things, the use of websites for communication with shareholders, the notice period required for general meetings and mandatory poll voting at general meetings. Additionally, Bermuda has amended its Companies Act relating to, among other things, eliminating the requirement to elect a President, Vice President, Chairman and Deputy Chairman and giving the Board of Directors the power to fill the casual vacancy of office of the auditor.

Accordingly, the Directors propose to seek the approval of the Shareholders by way of passing a special resolution to be proposed at the AGM for the amendments to the Current Bye-laws of the Company (the “Bye-laws”) to ensure compliance with the several amended provision of the Listing Rules and Bermuda Companies Act.

The full text of the proposed amendments to the Bye-laws of the Company is set out in Appendix III of this circular.

3. PROPOSED GRANTING OF THE REPURCHASE AND ISSUANCE MANDATES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 6th November 2008, general mandates were granted to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares and to issue new Shares respectively. Such mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting.

Ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to approve the granting of new general mandates to the Directors:

  • (a) to purchase Shares on the Stock Exchange of up to 10% of the existing issued share capital of the Company on the date of passing of such resolution (the “Repurchase Mandate”);

  • (b) to allot, issue or deal with Shares of up to 20% of the share capital of the existing share capital of the Company in issue on the date of passing of such resolution (the “Issuance Mandate”); and

  • (c) to extend the Issuance Mandate by the number of shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the Repurchase Mandate.

The Repurchase Mandate and the Issuance Mandate will continue in force until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company held after the Annual General Meeting or any earlier date as referred to in ordinary resolutions nos. 5 and 6 as set out in the

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

notice of the Annual General Meeting. With reference to the Repurchase Mandate and the Issuance Mandate, the Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plan to repurchase or issue any Shares pursuant thereto.

In accordance with the requirements of the Listing Rules, the Company is required to send to the Shareholders an explanatory statement containing all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the granting of the Repurchase Mandate. The explanatory statement as required by the Listing Rules in connection with the Repurchase Mandate is set out in the Appendix I to this circular.

4. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

Pursuant to Clause 86(2) of the Current Bye-laws, any Director appointed by the Board shall hold office only until the next following annual general meeting of the Company and shall then be eligible for re-election at that meeting. Also, pursuant to Clause 87 of the Current Bye-laws, at each annual general meeting of the Company, one-third of the Directors for the time being (or, if their number is not a multiple of three, the number nearest to but not greater than one-third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that the Chairman of the Board and/or the Managing Director shall not whilst holding such office, be subject to retirement by rotation or be taken into account in determining the number of Directors to retire in each year. The Director(s) to retire by rotation shall be the person(s) who has/have been longest in office since his/her/their last re-election or appointment. As between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day, the person(s) to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot. Any Director appointed pursuant to Clause 86(2) of the Current Bye-laws shall not be taken into account in determining which particular Directors or the number of Directors who are to retire by rotation. A retiring Director shall be eligible for re-election by the Shareholders at the relevant annual general meeting.

According to the above provisions, Ms. Mary Yuk Sin Lam and Mr. Stanley Kam Chuen Ko shall retire from office at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. Dr. Jonathan Koon Shum Choi will voluntarily retire from office at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, will offer himself for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.

Pursuant to Rule 13.74 of the Listing Rules, a listed issuer shall disclose the details required under Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules of any director(s) proposed to be re-elected or proposed new director in the notice or accompanying circular to its shareholders of the relevant general meeting, if such re-election or appointment is subject to shareholders’ approval at that relevant general meeting. The requisite details of Dr. Jonathan Koon Shum Choi, Ms. Mary Yuk Sin Lam and Mr. Stanley Kam Chuen Ko are set out in Appendix II of this circular.

5. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, PROXY ARRANGEMENT AND VOTING

The notice of the Annual General Meeting is set out on pages 22 to 25 of this circular. At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to approve, inter alia, the amendments to the current Bye-laws, the granting of the Repurchase Mandate and the Issuance Mandate, the extension of the Issuance Mandate by the addition thereto of the number of Shares repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate and the re-election of the retiring Directors.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

A form of proxy for use at the Annual General Meeting is enclosed with this circular. To be valid, the form of proxy must be completed and signed in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and deposited, together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed or a certified copy of that power of attorney or authority at the Share Registrar in Hong Kong of the Company, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, 46th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong, not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Completion and delivery of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting at the Annual General Meeting if you so wish.

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, all votes of the Shareholders at general meetings must be taken by poll. The Chairman of the Annual General Meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the Annual General Meeting.

6. RECOMMENDATION

The Directors consider that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate, the granting/extension of the Issuance Mandate, the proposal for amendments to the Bye-laws and the re-election of the retiring Directors are in the best interests of the Company, the Group and the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors recommend that all Shareholders should vote in favour of the relevant resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

7. GENERAL INFORMATION

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following is an explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the granting of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders.

Repurchases of Shares may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share. The Directors are seeking the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number of Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 3,248,223,906 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution no. 6 set out in the notice of the Annual General Meeting in respect of the granting of the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that the issued share capital of the Company remains unchanged up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Directors would be authorised under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 324,822,390 Shares (representing 10% of the Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date) during the period in which the Repurchase Mandate remains in force.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum of association, the Current Bye-laws, the laws of Bermuda and/or any other applicable laws.

The Company is empowered by its memorandum of association and the Current Bye-laws to repurchase Shares. The laws of Bermuda provide that the amount of capital paid in connection with a share repurchase by a company may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant shares, or the funds of the company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for such purpose. The amount of premium payable on repurchase may only be paid out of funds of the company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account of the company before the shares are repurchased.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX I

4. IMPACT OF REPURCHASES

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 30th June 2009) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. TAKEOVERS CODE

If, as a result of a Share repurchase, 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder’s interests, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and becomes obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, World Developments Limited (“WDL”) holds approximately 74.25% of the issued shares of the Company. Assuming that the Company repurchases 10% of the issued shares of the Company from its Shareholders other than from WDL, WDL’s shareholding of the Company will increase to 82.5%. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate. In the event that any exercise of the Repurchase Mandate would, to the knowledge of the Directors of the Company, result in the number of Shares held by the public falling below 25% of the total number of Shares in issue, the Directors would not exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent. In any event, the Directors do not have any present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate up to the extent to reduce the public shareholding to less than 25%.

6. GENERAL

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Company has not been notified by any connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make repurchases of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of Bermuda.
