CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the main board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

  • (1) The Vendor and the Guarantors have guaranteed to the Purchaser and the Company that the audited consolidated net profit after tax of the Target Group recorded in the ordinary course of business for the 12 months ending 30 September 2012 (“ PAT II ”) shall not be less than HK$40,000,000.

  • (2) In the event that the Amended Target Profit could not be achieved, the Consideration shall be adjusted downwards by reducing the principal amount of the Tranche II Convertible Bonds in accordance with the following revised formula (“ Amended Consideration Adjustment ”). The principal amount of the Tranche II Convertible Bonds will be adjusted to HK$0 if the PAT II is equivalent to or less than HK$15,000,000 or a loss:

The adjusted principal The original principal 2 X (Amended Target amount of the Tranche = amount HK$50,000,000 – Profit of HK$40,000,000 – II Convertible Bonds of the Tranche II PAT II) (“ AC II ”) Convertible Bonds

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT

Based on the management accounts of the Target Group, the Target Group recorded net loss of approximately HK$1 million for the period from 1 June 2011 to 30 September 2011 which was mainly attributable to operating expenses of approximately HK$1 million.

The Target Group is principally engaged in (i) solar energy generation and (ii) related power system integration business in the PRC. The Target Group did not have income generated from solar energy generation business and power system integration business during the period from 1 June 2011 to 30 September 2011.

At present, the Target Company has three subsidiaries, namely Qinghai Baike, the New PRC Subsidiary and Shanxi Baike New Energy Technology Development Co., Ltd. The Target Group is undergoing an internal reorganization to reorganize its businesses so that all power system integration business originally carried out by Qinghai Baike will be carried out by the New PRC Subsidiary.

Power system integration business

System integration refers to the optimization of technologies in the civil engineering system, electrical system and other ancillary system, database technologies, surveillance and software management. The Target Group shall source equipments and products from different vendors based on the scale and capacity of the respective power stations and subsequently carry out integration of the separated equipment, functions and information into a connected, unified and coordinated system. System integration enables the utilization of resources at their best so to enhance optimization of performance of the entire system and achieve centralized, high efficiency, balanced performance, substitutable and available for maintenance, as well as low cost management. The Target Group also offers subsequent system management services to the power stations.

  • 8 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As mentioned in the 2011 Circular, Qinghai Baike has secured and signed two agreements for the provision of one-off service on system integration services for biomass energy, thermal power and solar energy generation companies and projects. As the contracting parties in the two agreements are still in the process of obtaining the necessary licenses from the respective government authorities, Qinghai Baike has not yet commenced such system integration services. As such, the Vendor proposes and the Company agrees to enter into the Supplemental Agreement to defer the commencement date and end date of the financial period for the Target Profit, amend the Target Profit of HK$30,000,000 to the Amended Target Profit of HK$40,000,000 and also adopt the Amended Consideration Adjustment mechanism.

As part of the internal reorganization of business as mentioned above, the New PRC Subsidiary has signed new agreements with the counterparties of these two agreements for the provision of system integration services for biomass energy, thermal power and solar energy generation companies and projects in place of Qinghai Baike. It is expected that one of the contracting parties will obtain the necessary licences from the relevant government authorities by 1 March 2012, while the other contracting party will obtain the necessary licences from the relevant government authority by 1 April 2012. After these contracting parties have obtained the necessary licences, the New PRC Subsidiary will start to provide system integration services to them. It is expected that the New PRC Subsidiary will complete the system integration work within 150 days to 180 days after commencement of work.

These two agreements are expected to generate a total revenue of approximately RMB302 million. Pursuant to the two agreements, the total contract sum will be paid to the New PRC Subsidiary in stages where 10% of the total contract sum will be paid after commencement of the work, 60% of the total contract sum will be paid after completion of the system integration work and the remaining 30% of the total contract sum will be paid after completion of the final examination. On such basis, the Directors and the Vendor consider that the Target Group is able to meet the Amended Target Profit.

Solar energy generation

As disclosed in the 2011 Circular, the Target Company was approved to be engaged in the business of provision of solar energy of up to 1,000MW in the Qinghai Province. The Target Company has also entered into an investment agreement for the Construction of a Large Solar Photovoltaic Power Station in the Desert connected to the Grid at Geermu of 200MW (“ Geermu Agreement ”) and the Investment Agreement for the Construction of a Solar Photovoltaic Power Station connected to the Grid at Delingha of 100MW (“ Delingha Agreement ”).

The Development and Reform Commission of the Qinghai Province had granted approval in December 2010 for the construction of solar photovoltaic power station with the capacity of 10MW under the Geermu Agreement and the Development and Reform Commission of the Qinghai Province had granted approval on 6 December 2011 for the construction of solar photovoltaic power station with the capacity of 20MW under the Delingha Agreement.

  • 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

On 28 December 2011, Qinghai Baike has completed the construction of a 10MW solar photovoltaic power plant in 青海省格爾木東出口光伏園區 (unofficial English translation being Geermu East Exit Solar Power District, Qinghai province) (“ Qinghai Geermu Power Plant ”) and passed the grid integration inspection tests with the consent of 青海省電力公司 (unofficial English translation being Qinghai Province Electric Company). On 30 December 2011, Qinghai Baike has received the notification from 青海省發展和改革委員會 (unofficial English translation being Qinghai Province Development and Reform Committee) (“ Committee ”) that the Qinghai Geermu Power Plant has passed the inspection test of the Committee, and has conformed with the normal operation requirements for, and has officially commenced, grid integrated power generation. Pursuant to the relevant regulations of the PRC, from the date of commercial operation of the Qinghai Geermu Power Plant, the unit selling price of electricity shall be set at RMB1.15/KWh (inclusive of tax).

Having taken into account of the capital expenditure required for the future construction and development of solar energy generation business, the Company is considering to concentrate its resources to develop the system integration business as mentioned above. Therefore, the Company is considering to dispose of its interests in Qinghai Baike for a cash consideration, so that the cashflow of the Target Group could be improved and the Group is able to concentrate its resources for the system integration business. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company was in negotiation with an Independent Third Party on a possible sale of 100% interest in Qinghai Baike. As at the Latest Practicable Date, no definitive agreement regarding such possible sale had been signed by the parties. Further announcement will be made by the Company as and when required under the GEM Listing Rules.

Nonetheless, the Target Group may set up solar photovoltaic power stations in the future depending on the actual condition of review, business development of the Target Group and the approvals by government authorities.

DIRECTORS’ VIEW

For illustration purpose, set out below are the possible results of the AC I and the AC II under different scenarios:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As illustrated above:

  • (1) As the consideration adjustment will be in the form of adjustment of the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds, the time of exercise of the right to adjust the amount of the Consideration will not have any immediate adverse impact on the cashflow of the Group. Accordingly, if the Target Company records a loss or nil profit during PAT I or PAT II, the Company will not be worse off under PAT II.

  • (2) Under the Amended Consideration Adjustment mechanism, if the Target Company records a profit of HK$0 to HK$40,000,000, the AC II will be lower than the AC I. The Directors consider that such amended mechanism can on one hand serve as a penalty on the Vendor for the delay in fulfilling its obligations and on the other hand serve as an incentive to the Vendor to strive for a higher profit for the Target Group in order to minimize the magnitude of consideration adjustment.

Taking into account of the above, although under the original consideration adjustment mechanism, the Company is entitled to adjust the Consideration based the audited consolidated net profit after tax of the Target Group recorded in the ordinary course of business for the 12 months ending 31 March 2012 (i.e. PAT I), and while under the Amended Consideration Adjustment mechanism, the adjustment will be based on the audited consolidated net profit after tax of the Target Group recorded in the ordinary course of business for the 12 months ending 30 September 2012 (i.e. PAT II), which has deferred for 6 months under the original consideration adjustment mechanism, the Directors consider that the Supplemental Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Company will publish an announcement if the PAT II are less than the Amended Target Profit and will include details in its next published annual report and accounts. The independent non-executive Directors will provide an opinion in the Company’s next published annual report and accounts as to whether the Vendor has fulfilled its obligations under the guarantee in relation to the Amended Target Profit.

Save as Mr. Chiu and Ms. Yuen who have abstained from voting at the Board meeting to approve the Supplemental Agreement, the Directors are of the view that the terms of the Supplemental Agreement on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable and are in the interests of Shareholders and the Company as a whole.

FORMATION OF THE INDEPENDENT BOARD COMMITTEE

The Independent Board Committee, comprising all the independent non-executive Directors, has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether the Supplemental Agreement was entered into on normal commercial terms, and whether the terms of the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM NUADA

On 30 January 2012, the Purchaser, Mr. Chiu, Ms. Yuen, the Vendor and the Company entered into a Supplemental agreement to amend certain terms of the Agreement.

Each of Mr. Chiu, Ms. Yuen and the Vendor is a connected person of the Company under Rule 20.11 of the GEM Listing Rules. The entering into of the Supplemental Agreement constitutes a connected transaction for the Company and is subject to the approval of Independent Shareholders at the EGM. The Vendor holding 103,566,038 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date, is required to abstain from voting on the resolution to approve the Supplemental Agreement at the EGM.

The Independent Board Committee, comprising all independent non-executive Directors, namely Tam Kam Biu, William, Zhou Jing, Yang Guocai, has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether (i) the Supplemental Agreement was entered into on normal commercial terms; and (ii) the terms of the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Our role as the independent financial adviser is to give our independent opinion to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders as to whether (i) the Supplemental Agreement was entered into on normal commercial terms; and (ii) the terms of the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

In formulating our opinion, we have relied on the information, opinion and representations contained or referred to in the Circular and the information, opinion and representations provided to us by the management of the Company and the Directors. We have assumed that all information and representations contained or referred to in the Circular and all information and representations which have been provided by the management of the Company and the Directors, for which they are solely and wholly responsible, were true, accurate and complete at the time when they were made and continue to be so as at the date of the EGM.

Accordingly, we have no reason to suspect that any material facts or information have been withheld or to doubt the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information and representations contained in the Circular, or the reasonableness of the opinions expressed by the management of the Company and the Director provided to us. The Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information in the Circular and confirm, having made all reasonable enquiries, that to the best of their knowledge and belief, opinions expressed in the Circular have been arrived at after due and careful consideration and there are no other facts the omission of which would make any statement in the Circular misleading. Furthermore, we relied on the Company that it has provided us with sufficient information to reach an informed view and to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. We have relied on such information and opinions but have not, however, conducted any independent in-depth investigation into the business, financial conditions and affairs or the future prospects of the Group.

LETTER FROM NUADA

PRINCIPAL FACTORS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT

In formulating our opinion on the entering into of the Supplemental Agreement, we have considered the following factors and reasons:

I. Background and Reasons of entering into the Supplemental Agreement

1. Background

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Vendor conditionally agreed to sell and the Purchaser conditionally agreed to purchase the Sale Shares, representing the entire issued share capital of the Target Company, at the Consideration of HK$292,000,000 (subject to the adjustment).

The Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder, including but not limited to the purchase of the Sale Shares, the issue of the Consideration Shares and the issue of the Convertible Bonds, were approved by the Shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting held on 31 May 2011. Completion of the Acquisition took place on 1 June 2011 and the Target Company has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company since then.

2. The Group and the Target Group

The Group is principally engaged in (i) sales of self-service automatic teller machine systems and printing systems; (ii) provision of hardware and software technical support services; and (iii) solar energy generating and power system integration business in the PRC. The Target Group is principally engaged in (i) solar energy generation and (ii) related power system integration business in the PRC.

3. Reasons of the Supplemental Agreement

Based on the management accounts of the Target Group, the Target Group recorded net loss of approximately HK$1 million for the period from 1 June 2011 to 30 September 2011 which was mainly attributable to operating expenses of approximately HK$1 million. The Target Group did not have income generated from solar energy generation business and power system integration business during the period from 1 June 2011 to 30 September 2011.

As at the date of entering the Supplemental Agreement, the Target Group is still in the process of constructing solar photovoltaic power stations in the desert connected to the grid at Geermu Basin in the Qinghai Province with designed power generation capacity of 200MW. On 28 December 2011, the Target Group has completed the Qinghai Geermu Power Plant and passed the grid integration inspection tests with the consent of Qinghai Province Electric Company. On 30 December 2011, the Target Group has

  • 17 -

LETTER FROM NUADA

received the notification from the Committee that the Qinghai Geermu Power Plant has passed the inspection test of the Committee, and has conformed with the normal operation requirements for, and has officially commenced, grid integrated power generation. Pursuant to the relevant regulations of the PRC, from the date of commercial operation of the Qinghai Geermu Power Plant, the unit selling price of electricity shall be set at RMB1.15/KWh (inclusive of tax).

As mentioned in the 2011 Circular, the Target Group has secured and signed two agreements in the provision of one-off system integration services for biomass energy, thermal power and solar energy generation companies and projects, which are expected to generate sufficient revenue to fulfill the Target Profit of HK$30,000,000. In view of the fact that the contracting parties in the two agreements are still in the process of obtaining the necessary licenses from the respective government authorities, the Target Group has not yet commenced such system integration services as at the date of entering the Supplemental Agreement. As such, the Vendor proposes and the Company agrees to enter into the Supplemental Agreement to defer the commencement date and end date of the financial period for the Target Profit, amend the Original Target Profit of HK$30,000,000 to the Amended Target Profit of HK$40,000,000 and also adopt the Amended Consideration Adjustment mechanism.

We concur with the Directors and consider that (i) the delay in the system integration services to be provided by the Target Group is due to the other contracting parties in the two agreements; (ii) the time of exercise of the right to adjust the amount of the Consideration will not have any immediate adverse impact on the cashflow of the Group; and (iii) the amended mechanism can serve as a penalty on the Vendor for the delay in fulfilling its obligations and as an incentive to the Vendor to strive for a higher profit for the Target Group in order to minimize the magnitude of consideration adjustment, therefore, even though the commencement date of the financial period for the Target Profit has to be deferred for half a year, the Supplemental Agreement reflects the latest business situation and is on normal commercial terms and is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

II. The Supplemental Agreement

1. The terms of the Supplemental Agreement

On 30 January 2012, the Purchaser, Mr. Chiu, Ms. Yuen, the Vendor and the Company entered into the Supplemental Agreement to amend certain terms of the Agreement. Please refer to the Board Letter for the details of the major terms of the Supplemental Agreement.

LETTER FROM NUADA

2. Amendments to the Agreement

The parties of the Supplemental Agreement have agreed to amend certain terms of the Agreement. The original terms under the Agreement which are subject to amendments are:

  • (1) The Vendor and the Guarantors have guaranteed to the Purchaser and the Company that the PAT I shall not be less than HK$30,000,000.

  • (2) In the event that the Original Target Profit could not be achieved, the Consideration shall be adjusted downwards by reducing the principal amount of the Tranche II Convertible Bonds in accordance with the following formula:

The adjusted The original principal PAT I principal amount = amount HK$50,000,000 X Target Profit of of the Tranche II of the Tranche II HK$30,000,000 Convertible Bonds Convertible Bonds

The proposed amendments to the original terms of the Agreement are:

  • (1) The Vendor and the Guarantors have guaranteed to the Purchaser and the Company that the PAT II shall not be less than the Amended Target Profit for the 12 months ending 30 September 2012 of HK$40,000,000.

  • (2) In the event that the Amended Target Profit could not be achieved, the Consideration shall be adjusted downwards by reducing the principal amount of the Tranche II Convertible Bonds in accordance with the following revised formula. The principal of the Tranche II Convertible Bonds will be adjusted to HK$0 if the PAT II is equivalent to or less than HK$15,000,000 or a loss:

The adjusted the original principal 2 X (Amended Target principal amount = amount HK$50,000,000 – Profit of HK$40,000,000 of the Tranche II of the Tranche II – PAT II) Convertible Bonds Convertible Bonds

To analyze whether the terms of the Supplemental Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, we list below all the possible results of the AC I and the AC II under different scenarios:

As illustrated above, (i) the AC II will be lower than the AC I when the PAT I and PAT II are a profit of HK$40,000,000 or below; (ii) the AC II will be equivalent to AC I when the PAT I and PAT II is nil or below; and (iii) the AC II will be equivalent to AC I when the PAT I and PAT II is equal to or above HK$40,000,000. That means, the AC II will be lower than AC I, except when the Target Company records a profit of nil or above HK$40,000,000 or records a loss, in that case, the AC II will be equivalent to AC I.

Having considered that (i) the Amended Target Profit is higher than the Original Target Profit; and (ii) the AC II will be at least equivalent to or, even lower than, AC I under all scenarios, we consider the terms of the Supplemental Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM NUADA

III. RECOMMENDATION

Having considered the factors and reasons as stated above, we are of the view that despite entering into the Supplemental Agreement is not in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group, the Supplemental Agreement is on normal commercial terms and the terms of the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, we recommend the Independent Shareholders and advise the Independent Board Committee to recommend the Independent Shareholders to vote in favour of the ordinary resolutions in relation to the Supplemental Agreement to be proposed at the EGM.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of
