– 3 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this document is to set out such information in relation to the proposed mandate, the re-election of Directors and the Annual General Meeting.

GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND REPURCHASE SECURITIES

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for Shareholders’ approval whereby the Directors will be given a general and unconditional mandate to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares representing up to 20 per cent. of the issued Share of the Company as at the date the resolution is passed. As of the Latest Practicable Date, the number of issued Shares of the Company is 3,085,021,882.

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for Shareholders’ approval whereby the Directors will be given a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase issued Shares subject to the criteria set out in this document. An explanatory statement containing information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to approve the granting of a mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to purchase its own securities is set out in Appendix 1 to this document.

In addition, conditional upon the proposed resolution to authorise the repurchase of securities as more particularly described under the paragraph headed ‘‘Shareholders’ Approval’’ under the ‘‘Explanatory Statement on the Repurchase Proposal’’ in Appendix 1 being passed, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to authorise the Directors to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares up to a number equal to the Shares purchased under the authority to repurchase. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company may not make a new issue of Shares or announce a proposed new issue of Shares for a period of 30 days after any purchase by it of Shares, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise, other than an issue of securities pursuant to the exercise of warrants, share options or similar instruments requiring the Company to issue securities which were outstanding prior to that purchase of its own securities, without the prior approval of the Stock Exchange.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Mr Liu Meixuan and Mr Liu Xudong retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting pursuant to Code A4.2 of Appendix 14 of the Listing Rules and Article 94 of the Company’s Articles of Association that all directors of listed issuers appointed to fill a casual vacancy should be subject to election by shareholders at the first general meeting after their appointments. Mr Luo Zhenbang and Mr Wang Xiaojun, due to expiry of their two-year term, retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with Article 103(A) of the Company’s Articles of Association. All, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

Mr Liu Meixuan, if being re-elected, will resume the office of Chairman of the Company.

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Company received a declaration of independence from Mr Luo Zhenbang pursuant to Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules, in which no direct or indirect interest in the Company is being held by him and his immediate family members. At present, Mr Luo holds a directorship in five companies listed in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, including the Company, and he has confirmed with the Company that he should have sufficient time to participate into the Company’s business.

After careful consideration, the Board of Directors considered that Mr Luo is familiar to the Chinese accounting standards and possesses ample experience in various businesses in the Mainland China, as well as the Company’s businesses and never participated into the administrative works of the Company and its subsidiaries. During his independent work in the past years, Mr Luo can bring up unique opinion and analysis and, being the only Chinese accountant in the Board, diversify the Board and balance the interest of various parties. Hence, he remains independent under the Listing Rules even though he has been serving with the Company for more than 9 years.

The biographical details, the interests in the Shares (if any) and the remuneration of the retiring Directors are provided in Appendix 2 to this document.

FINAL DIVIDEND

Subject to approval by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, the Board has recommended a final dividend of HK1 cent per Share for the year ended 31 December 2018 payable to the Shareholders whose names appeared on the Register of Members of the Company on Tuesday, 11 June 2019.

VOTING PROCEDURE

Pursuant to Rules 13.39(4) and 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules, the vote of Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting will be taken by poll and a scrutineer will be appointed by the Company for vote taking at the Annual General Meeting. The Company will announce the results of the poll in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5).

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors are of the opinion that the general mandates to issue Shares and the Repurchase Proposal, and the re-election of Directors are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders and therefore recommend that you vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

APPENDIX 1 EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE PROPOSAL

Set out below further information of the Repurchase Proposal.

SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for Shareholders’ approval whereby the Directors will be given a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase issued Shares subject to the criteria set out in this document.

The Directors believe that the grant of a general mandate to repurchase securities would give the Company additional flexibility that would be beneficial. The repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements of the Company at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share. A maximum of 10 per cent. of the issued Share as at the date the resolution is passed may be repurchased by the Company. As of the Latest Practicable Date, the number of Shares may be repurchased are 308,502,188 Shares. Shareholders can be assured that the Directors would only make such purchases in circumstances where they consider them to be in the best interests of the Company. On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2018 (being the date to which the latest published audited accounts of the Company have been made up) and in particular the working capital or gearing position of the Company at that time and the number of Shares in issue, the Directors consider that there may be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed purchases were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed purchase period. However, no purchase would be made in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the financial position as at 31 December 2018).

SOURCE OF FUNDS

Purchase of Shares must be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association and the laws of Hong Kong.

DIRECTORS AND CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, any of the associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) of any of the Directors have any present intention, in the event that the grant to the Directors of a repurchase mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company.

No persons who are connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor have they undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the Company is authorised to make purchases of Shares. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company shall not knowingly purchase Shares from a connected person on the Stock Exchange.

– 7 –

APPENDIX 1 EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE PROPOSAL

UNDERTAKING TO THE STOCK EXCHANGE

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the proposed resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of Hong Kong, the jurisdiction in which the Company is incorporated, and in accordance with the Articles of Association of the Company.

HONG KONG CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS

If, as a result of a share repurchase, a shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting capital of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code and, if such increase results in a change in control, may in certain circumstances give rise to an obligation to make a general offer for shares under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, and according to the register of substantial shareholders’ interests maintained pursuant to Part XV of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571) of the Laws of Hong Kong, the following Shareholders were interested in 5 per cent. or more of the issued share capital of the Company:

Direct Number of Percentage of
interest shares interested issued share
Name Capacity (Yes/No) (Long Position) capital
China Aerospace Interests in No 1,183,598,636 38.37%
Science & controlled
Technology corporation
Corporation
Burhill Company Beneficial owner Yes 1,183,598,636 38.37%
Limited

Note: Burhill Company Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation, the shares held by it form the total number of shares in which China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation was deemed interested.

Save as disclosed above, the Company has not been notified of any other relevant interests or short positions in the issued share capital or underlying shares of the Company as at 31 December 2018.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Proposal, then (if the above shareholdings otherwise remain the same) the attributable shareholdings of China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation and Burhill Company Limited in the Company would be increased to approximately 42.63 per cent. of the issued Share of the Company. The increase would give rise to China Aerospace Science & Technology Corporation an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. As of the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors are not aware of any other

consequence which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any purchases by the Company of its Shares, and the Company does not have the intention to repurchase the Shares to such extent at present.
