LETTER FROM THE BOARD

THE AGREEMENT

  1. Date

  2. 4th October, 2005

  3. Parties

  4. Vendor: Yonderille Developments Limited ( ), a company incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability and an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company

  5. Purchaser: Macquarie Goodman DCC Investments Limited, a company incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability

The Purchaser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Macquarie Goodman Group, the shares of which are listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (stock code: MGQ). The principal business of the Purchaser is property investment and the principal businesses of Macquarie Goodman Group comprise industrial property ownership, funds management, property development, project and development management and property services. The Purchaser has confirmed to the Vendor that its ultimate beneficial owners are the security holders of Macquarie Goodman Group.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors confirmed that, to the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief and having made all reasonable enquiries, the Purchaser and its ultimate beneficial owners were Independent Third Parties. The Purchaser and its ultimate beneficial owner confirmed that they did not have any shareholding in the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date. The Directors further confirmed that having made all reasonable enquiries, neither the controlling Shareholder nor the Directors or any of their respective associates had any shareholding in Macquarie Goodman Group or any material interests in the Disposal as at the Latest Practicable Date. As far as the Company is aware, as no Shareholder has any interest in the Disposal which is different from any other Shareholders, no Shareholder will be required to abstain from voting in the SGM regarding the Disposal.

3. Consideration

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Vendor agreed to sell and the Purchaser agreed to acquire the Cargo Centre (i) in its present state and condition; (ii) subject to and with the benefit of the existing lettings, tenancies and licences; and (iii) free from encumbrances.

The consideration for the disposal of the Cargo Center is HK$650 million in cash. Taking into account the Rental Guarantee Payment (details of which are set out under paragraph 4 below), payments which have been made or will be made by the Purchaser to the Vendor in relation to the Disposal are as follows:

  • (i) HK$5 million as earnest money prior to the signing of the Agreement;

  • (ii) HK$65 million as deposit on the date of the Agreement, of which the earnest money of HK$5 million mentioned in (i) above had been transferred and treated as part payment of the deposit; and

— 4 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (iii) HK$567 million upon completion of the Agreement, being the balance of the consideration of HK$585 million after deducting the Rental Guarantee Payment.

Upon completion of the Disposal, the Vendor shall receive from the Purchaser an aggregate amount of HK$632 million.

The terms and conditions of the Agreement including the consideration were reached and determined as a result of negotiations between the parties on an arm’s length basis with reference to the prevailing property market conditions in Hong Kong and the valuation of HK$500 million appraised by the Valuer as at 30th June, 2005 and were on normal commercial terms. Such valuation report was issued by the Valuer on 6th September, 2005. The Cargo Centre was valued at HK$500 million as at 31st August, 2005 by the Valuer and the letter and valuation certificate are set out in Appendix IV to this circular. The Cargo Centre was valued at its market value with reference to comparable market transactions and on the basis of capitalization of the net income of the Cargo Centre and allowed for outgoings and making provisions for reversionary income potential.

The consideration of the Disposal in the amount of HK$650 million represents (a) a premium of approximately 54.8% to the carrying value of the Cargo Centre of HK$420 million as set out in the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2004; (b) a premium of approximately 30% to the carrying value of the Cargo Centre of HK$500 million as set out in the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2005; and (c) a premium of approximately 30% to the valuation of HK$500 million as appraised by the Valuer as at 31st August, 2005.

The net consideration of the Disposal of HK$632 million, being the consideration of HK$650 million after deducting the Rental Guarantee Payment, represents (a) a premium of approximately 50.5% to the carrying value of the Cargo Centre of HK$420 million as set out in the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2004; (b) a premium of approximately 26.4% to the carrying value of the Cargo Centre of HK$500 million as set out in the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2005 and; (c) a premium of approximately 26.4% to the valuation of HK$500 million as appraised by the Valuer as at 31st August, 2005.

The Directors consider that the terms and conditions of the Agreement are on normal commercial terms which are fair and reasonable so far as the Shareholders are concerned and are in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

4. Rental Guarantee Payment

The Vendor shall pay to the Purchaser a lump sum of HK$18 million on completion of the Disposal being an amount agreed to be payable to the Purchaser as rental guarantee. The payment is to be deducted from the balance of the consideration payable by the Purchaser to the Vendor upon completion of the Disposal.

The Rental Guarantee Payment has been reached and determined as a result of negotiations between the Vendor and the Purchaser on an arm’s length basis with reference to the existing tenancies and the prevailing rental market conditions in Hong Kong. The amount was negotiated in place of a guaranteed rental yield for 3 years upon completion of the Disposal in respect of the Cargo Centre, which was initially sought from the Vendor by the Purchaser. The Company considers that it would be in a better position to measure and contain its financial exposure by agreeing on a fixed amount of a rental guarantee payment to be deducted from the consideration of the Cargo

— 5 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Centre upon completion of the Disposal. The Rental Guarantee Payment is a one-off payment and is non-refundable. The Directors consider that the Rental Guarantee Payment is on normal commercial term, which is fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

5. Conditions of the Disposal

Completion of the Disposal is subject to the condition that all requirements which the Vendor and/or the Company is/are required to comply with under the Listing Rules in connection with the Disposal have been duly complied with, including but not limited to the obtaining of the Shareholders’ approval of the Disposal at the SGM.

If the condition shall not be fulfilled by the Vendor on or before the date which is 7 days prior to the date for completion of the Agreement, the Vendor shall forthwith notify the Purchaser or its solicitors, and the Purchaser shall, within 5 business days of receipt of the Vendor’s written notice, by written notice to the Vendor or its solicitors either to extend the date for completion of the Agreement or to rescind the Agreement with immediate effect whereupon the Vendor shall return to the Purchaser or its solicitors all deposits paid but without costs or compensation and if the return is made within 7 days from the date of receipt of the Purchaser’s response, without interest, and the parties shall enter into an agreement for cancellation to cancel the Agreement and neither party shall have any claim against the other.

If the Purchaser shall fail (other than due to the default of the Vendor) to complete the purchase of the Cargo Centre pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, all deposits paid shall be forfeited to the Vendor who may rescind the sale and resell the Cargo Centre and any deficiency in price and all reasonable expenses in relation to the re-sale of the Cargo Centre shall be recoverable by the Vendor from the Purchaser. Without prejudice to the Purchaser’s right to extend the date of completion mentioned above, if the Vendor shall fail (other than due to the default of the Purchaser or non-fulfillment of the above condition) to complete the sale of the Cargo Centre pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Vendor shall refund in full all deposits received from the Purchaser without prejudice to the Purchaser’s right and remedies including to claim for damages and/or specific performance under the Agreement.

6. Completion

Subject to the right of extension available to the Purchaser mentioned in paragraph 5 above, completion of the Disposal shall take place (i) within 7 days after the receipt by the Purchaser of the Vendor’s notice that all necessary Shareholders’ and other approvals, including the Shareholders’ approval at the SGM in respect of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder have been obtained; or (ii) by 23rd December, 2005, whichever is the earlier.

Completion of the Disposal is expected to take place on or before 23rd December, 2005.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net sale proceeds of the Disposal, being the cash consideration of HK$650 million after deducting the Rental Guarantee Payment, are HK$632 million. Taking into account the agent’s commission of approximately HK$7 million, the net proceeds from the Disposal are estimated to be approximately HK$625 million. The Directors intend to apply the estimated net proceeds from the Disposal as follows:

  • (a) to discharge mortgage loans over the Cargo Centre in favour of a licensed bank in Hong Kong (the principal amount outstanding as at the Latest Practicable Date was approximately HK$151.5 million); and

  • (b) the balance thereof for general working capital of the Group which will be approximately HK$473.5 million based on the outstanding principal amount of mortgage loans of HK$151.5 million as at the Latest Practicable Date. However, the Group may use part of such balance to finance the whole or part of the consideration for acquisition of premium properties for the Group in the Mainland China as opportunities arise.

The Company is currently considering to acquire premium properties for the Group in the Mainland China as opportunities arise. Such acquisition may be financed or partly financed by the balance of the net proceeds of the Disposal under general working capital of the Group. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the amount of such acquisition had not yet been determined by the Board. The Company is in preliminary discussions and/or reviewing of a number of opportunities in relation to premium properties in the Mainland China which include investment opportunities from related parties/connected persons of the Company. As at the Latest Practicable Date, no agreement in relation to any acquisition had been signed and no definitive terms or timetable have been agreed. The Company will keep the Shareholders and investors informed by way of announcement and take all other actions required in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Listing Rules if and when any written agreement in relation to any such investment opportunities has been signed.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE CARGO CENTRE

The Cargo Centre is located at No. 110–118 Texaco Road and No. 180–200 Yeung Uk Road, Tsuen Wan, New Territories, Hong Kong. The Cargo Centre comprises 32 van/private car parking spaces, 26 lorry parking spaces and 2 container parking spaces on the 2nd to 5th floors, flat roofs on the 2nd floor, reserved area on the 5th floor and warehousing units on the 6th, 7th, 9th, 10th, 12th to 28th and 30th floors. The Cargo Centre has a total gross floor area of approximately 718,168 square feet (excluding the car parking spaces).

The Cargo Centre was acquired by the Group in 1992 at a cost of approximately HK$560 million. The Cargo Centre has been held by the Group as investment property.

The Cargo Centre is currently subject to tenancies. Currently, the Group occupies an office of approximately 1,168 square feet which accounts for approximately 0.2% of the total gross floor area of the Cargo Centre as storage space. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Cargo Centre was the only investment property held by the Group. The Cargo Centre is to be acquired by the Purchaser with the benefit of the existing tenancy agreements of the Cargo Centre.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE DISPOSAL

Based on the Company’s audited consolidated accounts, rental income attributed to the Cargo Centre for each of the three years ended 30th June, 2003, 30th June, 2004 and 30th June, 2005 were approximately HK$26.9 million, HK$27.2 million and HK$30.6 million, respectively, whilst the Cargo Centre recorded an operating loss of approximately HK$16.6 million including revaluation deficit of HK$40 million for the year ended 30th June, 2003, an operating profit of approximately HK$24.8 million for the year ended 30th June, 2004 and an operating profit of approximately HK$108.1 million including revaluation surplus of HK$80 million for the year ended 30th June, 2005. After completion of the Disposal, the Group will cease to receive rental income generated from the Cargo Centre. In addition, the Disposal will also reduce the future interest expenses of the Group.

Based on the Company’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2005, the carrying value of the Cargo Centre was HK$500 million. Without taking into consideration of any tax effect, it is expected that, upon completion of the Disposal, a gain before tax of approximately HK$125 million (subject to audit) will be accounted for by the Group based on the estimated net proceeds from the Disposal of approximately HK$625 million, and the carrying value of the Cargo Centre of HK$500 million as at 30th June, 2005.

As mentioned in the paragraph headed ‘‘Use of proceeds’’ above, the Group would apply part of the proceeds from the Disposal to repay the Group’s mortgage loans of which the principal amount outstanding as at the Latest Practicable Date was approximately HK$151.5 million. The intended repayment will therefore result in a reduction in the Group’s total bank and other borrowings from approximately HK$291.8 million as at 30th June, 2005 based on the Group’s audited consolidated accounts for the year ended 30th June, 2005 to approximately HK$140.3 million. The net assets value of the Group would also be increased from approximately HK$831 million as at 30th June, 2005 to approximately HK$954 million after completion of the Disposal as shown in the unaudited pro forma financial statements of the Remaining Group as set out in Appendix III to this circular. Accordingly, the gearing ratio of the Group, represented by a percentage of total bank and other borrowings to net assets would decrease from approximately 35% as at 30th June, 2005 to approximately 15% (subject to audit).

FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE REMAINING GROUP AND REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL

The Company is an investment holding company. The Group is principally engaged in property investment and development.

In view of the recent upturn in Hong Kong’s property market, the Directors consider that the Disposal will provide an opportunity for the Company to dispose of the Cargo Centre which the Group has held for 13 years at a fair market price. The Disposal is a step towards the realignment of the property portfolio of the Group in order to strengthen its asset base in the long term by seeking to acquire premium properties in the Mainland China which, in the opinion of the Directors, could provide potentially higher growth in rental yield and/or capital gain in the long term. In addition, the Disposal will provide funding resources in order to achieve such realignment.

In an attempt to dampen property speculation in general, the Central Government had recently taken a series of rather drastic administrative measures. However, some cities, such as Beijing, are not severely affected. The Company is cautiously optimistic that pre-sales and sales of residential units of Phase III of Chaoyang Garden, Beijing, the PRC (‘‘Phase III’’) during the financial year

— 8 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

ending 30th June, 2006 will generally meet the targets set by the Company. The construction of Phase III has been completed in September 2005. The four-storey shopping mall of Phase III which is held as a long term investment, is being offered for leasing. It is currently expected that most shops will be taken up by the middle of next year when the grand opening of the mall will take place.

The port operations in Tung Kok Tau owned by Shenzhen Zhen Wah Harbour Enterprises Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, benefited from the continued growth in demand for logistics support in Mainland China and the turnover of the port operations of the Group has increased by a steady growth rate of 12% for the year ended 30th June, 2005. The land premium in respect of an area of 171,788 square meters within the Tung Kok Tau site for re-development purpose has been paid in full, which provides a total re-developable gross floor area of 310,400 square meters. Negotiations with the Chinese joint venture partner of Shenzhen Zhen Wah Harbour Enterprises Ltd. to settle the outstanding dispute are continuing. The Chinese joint venture partner has made repeated allegations with respect to the authenticity and the legality of the procedures involving the increase of the Group’s shareholding in Shenzhen Zhen Wah Harbour Enterprises Ltd. in an attempt to strengthen its bargaining position. Based on advice from the Company’s PRC legal counsel, the allegations of the Chinese joint venture party are basically groundless. Both parties are still making attempts to settle the differences. However, the Company cannot rule out the need to resort to arbitration if a settlement cannot be reached by the end of the current financial year.

GENERAL

The Disposal constitutes a very substantial disposal for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. Pursuant to Rule 14.49 of the Listing Rules, the Disposal is conditional on approval by the Shareholders at the SGM. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors confirmed that, to the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief and having made all reasonable enquiries, the Purchaser and its ultimate beneficial owner were Independent Third Parties.

The Directors further confirmed that, having made all reasonable enquiries, neither the controlling Shareholder nor the Directors or any of their respective associates had any shareholding in Macquarie Goodman Group or any material interest in the Disposal as at the Latest Practicable Date. As far as the Company is aware, as no Shareholder has any interest in the Disposal which is different from any other Shareholders, no Shareholder will be required to abstain from voting in the SGM regarding the Disposal. Mr. Chua Domingo, who indirectly controls the voting rights of 93,321,279 Shares, representing approximately 42.59% of the issued share capital of the Company, has undertaken to the Company and the Purchaser that (i) he will procure the registered holders of the abovementioned Shares to vote in favour of the Disposal at the SGM; and (ii) he will not reduce his indirect beneficial shareholdings in the Company below 40% at any time before the SGM.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE GROUP

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. General

The Company was incorporated in Bermuda as an exempted company with limited liability and its shares are listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the ‘‘Stock Exchange’’).

The Company acts as an investment holding company. The activities of its principal subsidiaries are property investment and development.

2. Potential impact arising from the recently issued accounting standards

The Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the ‘‘HKICPA’’) issued a number of new or revised Hong Kong Accounting Standards (‘‘HKAS’’) and Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRSs’’) (hereinafter collectively referred to as ‘‘new HKFRSs’’) which are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January, 2005 except for HKFRS 3 Business Combination. The Group has not early adopted these new HKFRSs in the financial statements for the year ended 30th June, 2005.

HKFRS 3 is applicable to business combinations for which the agreement date is on or after 1st January, 2005. The Group has not entered into any business combination for which the agreement date is on or after 1st January, 2005. Therefore, HKFRS 3 did not have any impact on the Group for the year ended 30th June, 2005.

The Group has commenced considering the potential impact of these new HKFRSs but the directors of the Group anticipate that the adoption of these new HKFRSs would have no material impact on how its results of operations and financial position in the future are prepared and presented except as described below.

HKAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements HKAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment HKAS 17 Leases HKAS 32 Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation HKAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement HKAS 40 Investment Property HKAS Interpretation 21 Income taxes — Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets

3. Significant accounting policies

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified for the revaluation of certain properties of the Group and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong and the principal accounting policies adopted are as follows:

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made up to 30th June each year.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective dates of acquisition and up to the effective dates of disposal, as appropriate.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on consolidation represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary at the date of acquisition.

Goodwill arising on consolidation is capitalised and amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is presented separately in the balance sheet.

On the disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of unamortised goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

— 21 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE GROUP

Negative goodwill

Negative goodwill represents the excess of the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of a subsidiary or an associate at the date of acquisition over the cost of acquisition.

Negative goodwill arising on acquisitions prior to 1st July, 2004 continues to be held in reserves and will be credited to income at the time of disposal of the relevant subsidiary or associate.

Negative goodwill arising on acquisitions on or after 1st July, 2004 is presented as deduction from assets and will be released to income based on an analysis of the circumstances from which the balance resulted.

Revenue recognition

When properties under development are sold, revenue is recognised either when the sale agreement is completed or when the development is completed which is determined by the issuance of the relevant occupation permit, whichever is the later. Deposits and instalments received on properties sold prior to their completion are included in current liabilities.

Rental income, including rental invoiced in advance from properties under operating leases, is recognised on a straight line basis over the lease terms.

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the interest rate applicable.

Port operating income is recognised when the services are rendered.

Dividend income from investments is recognised when the Group’s right to receive payment has been established.

Investment properties

Investment properties are completed properties which are held for their investment potential, any rental income being negotiated at arm’s length.

Investment properties are stated at their open market values based on professional valuations at the balance sheet date. Any surplus or deficit arising on the revaluation of investment properties is credited or charged to the investment property revaluation reserve unless the balance of this reserve is insufficient to cover a deficit, in which case the excess of the deficit over the balance of the investment property revaluation reserve is charged to the income statement.

Where a deficit has previously been charged to the income statement and a revaluation surplus subsequently arise, this surplus is credited to the income statement to the extent of the deficit previously charged.

On disposal of an investment property, the balance on the investment property revaluation reserve attributable to that property is transferred to income statement.

No depreciation is provided on investment properties except where the unexpired term of the relevant lease is 20 years or less.

Properties held for/under development

Properties held for/under development are stated at cost less any identified impairment losses.

Properties held for sale

Properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

— 22 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE GROUP

Subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are included in the Company’s balance sheet at cost less any identified impairment loss.

Investments in securities

Investments in securities are recognised on a trade date basis and are initially measured at cost.

Investments other than held-to-maturity debt securities are classified as investment securities and other investments.

Investment securities, which are securities held for an identified long-term strategic purpose, are measured at subsequent reporting dates at cost, as reduced by any impairment loss that is other than temporary.

Other investments are measured at fair values, with unrealised gains and losses included in net profit or loss for the period.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight line method at the following rates per annum:

Motor vehicles 15% to 20% Plant and machinery, equipment and others 10% to 33.3%

The gain or loss arising from disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and is recognised in the income statement.

Impairment

At each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised as an expense immediately.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it excludes items of income and expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes income statement items that are never taxable or deductible.

— 23 —

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE GROUP

Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill (or negative goodwill) or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.

Operating leases

Rentals payable on properties under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the terms of the leases.

Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-translated at the rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Profits and losses arising on exchange are included in net profit or loss for the period.

On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s operations outside Hong Kong are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the year. Exchange differences arising, if any, are classified as equity and transferred to the Group’s translation reserve. Such translation differences are recognised as income or as expenses in the year in which the operation is disposed of.

Retirement benefits costs

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (‘‘Hong Kong’’) and the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) and the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme are charged as an expense as they fall due.

4. Business and geographical segments

Business segments

For management purposes, the Group is currently organised into three operating divisions — property sales, property rental and port operations. These principal operating activities are the basis on which the Group reports its primary segment information.

Principal activities are as follows:

Property sales — sales of properties developed by the Group Property rental — leasing of investment properties Port operations — operations of the port

grant of the option; and iii) the nominal value of a share of the Company. The maximum number of shares in respect of which options shall be granted under the Share Option Scheme shall not exceed 10% in aggregate of the issued share capital of the Company at the date of its adoption. No director, employee or eligible participant may be granted options under the Share Option Scheme which will enable him or her if exercise in full to subscribe for exceeding 1% of the issued share capital of the Company in any 12-month period.

Nominal consideration of HK$1 is payable on acceptance of each grant.

No share option was granted to or exercised by any of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ directors, employees and such eligible participants under the Share Option Scheme since its adoption, and there were no share options outstanding as at 30th June, 2005, 30th June, 2004 and 1st July, 2003.

36. Retirement benefit scheme

  • (a) Prior to 1st December, 2000, the Group operated a defined contribution retirement benefit scheme (‘‘Defined Contribution Scheme’’) for its qualifying employees in Hong Kong. The assets of the scheme were held separately from those of the Group in funds under the control of an independent trustee. Where there are employees who leave the Defined Contribution Scheme prior to vesting fully in the contributions, the amount of the forfeited contributions would be used to reduce future contributions payable by the Group.

With effective from 1st December, 2000, the Group has set up a mandatory provident fund scheme (‘‘MPF Scheme’’). Members of the Defined Contribution Scheme were given one-time option to choose to transfer to the MPF Scheme or remain in the existing scheme. While new eligible employees can choose between the Defined Contribution Scheme and MPF Scheme. The MPF Scheme is registered with the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme Authority under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Group in funds under the control of an independent trustee. Under the rules of the MPF Scheme, the employer and its employees are each required to make contributions to the scheme at rate specified in the rules. No forfeited contributions are available to reduce the contribution payable in the future years by the employer.

The retirement benefit scheme contributions arising from the Defined Contribution Scheme and the MPF Scheme charged to the income statement represent contributions payable to the funds by the Group at rates specified in the rules of the schemes.

During the year, retirement benefits contributions charged to the income statement are HK$211,000 (2004: HK$206,000).

At 30th June, 2005, there are forfeited contributions of HK$2,500 (2004: HK$3,000) which arose upon employees leaving the Defined Contribution Scheme and which are available to reduce the contributions payable by the Group under Defined Contribution Scheme in the future years.

  • (b) According to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the PRC subsidiaries are required to contribute 19% and 13% of the stipulated salary set by the Beijing and Shenzhen local governments, respectively, to the retirement benefits schemes to fund the retirement benefits of their employees.

During the year, the retirement benefits contributions charged to the income statement are HK$648,000 (2004: HK$568,000).

37. Pledge of assets

At 30th June, 2005, the Group has pledged its investment properties with an aggregate carrying value of HK$500,000,000 (2004: HK$420,000,000) and an assignment of rental and sale proceeds from the investment properties to the bank to secure general banking facilities granted to the Group.

The amount of US$29,500,000 disclosed above represents capital paid by the Group up to 30th June, 2005. However, the Group’s entitlement to share the profit in Beijing Longfast was agreed to be at 95%.

  2. The Group is in dispute with the Chinese joint venture partner as to the percentages of equity interest held by two parties in Zhen Wah. The Group has been negotiating with the Chinese joint venture partner to resolve the dispute and to acquire all the equity interest held by the Chinese joint venture partner on real estates development in Tung Kok Tau. Based on the opinion of a PRC lawyer, the 80% equity interest owned by the Group in Zhen Wah is valid and legally enforceable. The Group resorts to settle the difference between the parties by means of negotiations and mutual agreement so as not to go for arbitration, which is considered as the last resort.

APPENDIX III

3. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS ON THE REMAINING GROUP

Business Review

For the year ended 30th June, 2003

For the year ended 30th June, 2003, the turnover of the Remaining Group amounted to approximately HK$267.9 million representing a sharp increase of about 1,141% over that of the year ended 30th June, 2002. It was principally resulted from the booking of sales revenue (by approximately HK$236 million) of the first two towers of Phase II of Chaoyang Garden (The Sun Crest) in Beijing (‘‘Phase II’’), following the issue of occupation permit in November 2002. The sales proceeds of Chaoyang Garden represented about 94% of the turnover of the Remaining Group.

Chaoyang Garden

For the year ended 30th June, 2003, the Remaining Group realised a total sum of approximately HK$252 million, from property sales of Chaoyang Garden principally arising from the first two towers of Phase II completed and delivered in November 2002. As at 30th June, 2003, about 70% of these two towers had been sold out.

The last two towers of Phase II had been put up for pre-sale in October 2002. These two towers were completed on schedule and were delivered to buyers. As at 30th June, 2003, about 50% of these two towers had already been taken up.

The development plans of Phase III of Chaoyang Garden (‘‘Phase III’’), a single residential/commercial complex (the final phase) was completed and officially approved, and foundation works thereof commenced in September 2003.

Tung Kok Tau

During the year ended 30th June, 2003, the port operations in Tung Kok Tau continued to make steady contributions to the Remaining Group’s operating profits.

Negotiations with the Chinese joint venture partner over the differences on the overall control of the Remaining Group on the re-development of the site were continuing.

For the year ended 30th June, 2004

For the year ended 30th June, 2004, the turnover of the Remaining Group amounted to approximately HK$383 million representing a rise of about 43% over that of the year ended 30th June, 2003, which primarily resulted from the booking of sales proceeds (by about HK$289.3 million) of the last two towers of Phase II following the issue of occupation permit in October 2003. Sales revenue of Chaoyang Garden accounted for about 95% of the turnover of the Remaining Group.

— 49 —

APPENDIX III INFORMATION RELATING TO THE REMAINING GROUP

Chaoyang Garden

For the year ended 30th June, 2004, home sales in Beijing regained its momentum as a result of post-SARS economic revival in the latter part of 2003. Total property sale for the year amounted to approximately HK$365.2 million. However, an over-supply situation in the highend residential sector in Beijing continued to exert pressure on price and profit.

Construction work of Phase III, a multi-purpose residential/commercial complex, commenced in September 2003. Pre-sale of this phase had been planned to be commenced in the first quarter of 2005. The entire development had been scheduled to be completed by the end of 2005.

Tung Kok Tau

For the year ended 30th June, 2004, the operating income and profit of the port operations in Tung Kok Tau increased by about 15% and 17% respectively.

In December 2003, the Remaining Group paid the balance of land premium of about RMB156 million to secure an area of 171,788 square meters comprising the ‘‘red-line’’ zone of the Tung Kok Tau site having a total re-developable gross floor area of 310,400 square meters. This payment was made necessary by the Central Government implementing strict policy of repossession of all unpaid lands and was funded ultimately by the controlling shareholder of the Company.

Negotiations with the Chinese joint venture partner on the proposed acquisition by the Remaining Group of full control over the re-development project were on-going. However some further delays have become unavoidable due to, on one hand, new city planning proposals affecting the site, and on the other hand to the recent corporate restructuring of the Chinese joint venture partner and its controlling organization.

For the year ended 30th June, 2005

For the year ended 30th June, 2005, the turnover of the Remaining Group amounted to approximately HK$96.4 million, compared to HK$383 million for the year ended 30th June, 2004. This decrease was attributable to the fall of revenue (by approximately HK$288.7 million) from property sales of Chaoyang Garden in Beijing, as most of residential units in its first and second phases have been sold and the results thereof have been accounted for in previous financial years.

Chaoyang Garden

For the year ended 30th June, 2005, sales proceeds of residential units in Beijing were approximately HK$76.5 million, the majority of which represent proceeds from the remaining units of Phase II.

Construction of Phase III comprising a four-storey shopping mall and a twenty-six-storey tower of commercial apartments was on schedule. Despite that drastic measures were taken by the Central Government to dampen property speculation recently, about 40% of Phase III had been pre-sold. The result of these transactions would be reflected upon the issuance of occupation permit.

APPENDIX III INFORMATION RELATING TO THE REMAINING GROUP

Tung Kok Tau

For the year ended 30th June, 2005, port operation showed a continued turnover growth of about 12% with operating profit therefrom recording a substantial increase of approximately 103% as against the operating profit of the year ended 30th June, 2004.

The Remaining Group’s bank balances and cash were denominated primarily in Renminbi. The Directors consider that the Remaining Group’s exposure to the exchange rate risk is not material due to the currency peg of HK$ with USD.

We have valued the property at its market value which we would define as meaning ‘‘the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.’’

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the owner sells the property on the open market in its existing state without the benefit of deferred term contracts, leasebacks, joint ventures, management agreements or any similar arrangements which would serve to increase the value of the property. In addition, no account has been taken of any option or right of pre-emption concerning or affecting the sale of the property.

PROPERTY VALUATION

APPENDIX IV

The property which is held by the Group for investment has been valued with reference to comparable market transactions and on the basis of capitalization of the net income shown on the schedules provided by you. We have allowed for outgoings and make provisions for reversionary income potential.

In undertaking our valuation of the property held from the Government for a term expired before 30th June, 1997, we have taken into account the provisions contained in Annex III of the Joint Declaration of the Government of the United Kingdom and the Government of the People’s Republic of China on the Question of Hong Kong and the New Territories Leases (Extension) Ordinance 1988 that such lease had been extended without premium until 30th June, 2047 and that an annual rent at three per cent of the then rateable value of the property was charged from the date of extension.

We have relied to a considerable extent on the information provided by the Company and have accepted advice given to us by the Company on such matters as statutory notices, easements, tenure, particulars of occupancy and floor areas. We have caused searches to be made at the Tsuen Wan Land Registry. However, we have not scrutinised the original documents to verify ownership or to ascertain the existence of any lease amendments which may not appear on the copies handed to us. All documents and leases have been used for reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximate.

We have inspected the exterior of the property. During the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defects. However, no structural survey has been made and we are therefore unable to report as to whether the property is or is not free of rot, infestation or any other structural defects. No tests were carried out on any of the services.

No allowance has been made in our valuation for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on the property nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the property is free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of any onerous nature which could affect its value.

Our valuation has been prepared in accordance with the requirements set out in Chapter 5 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities published by The Stock Exchange Hong Kong Limited and the Valuation Standards on Properties (First Edition 2005) published by The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors.

We enclose herewith our valuation certificate.

Yours faithfully For and on behalf of

KNIGHT FRANK HONG KONG LIMITED

Catherine Cheung MHKIS MRICS RPS(GP) Assistant Director

4. MATERIAL CONTRACT

As the Latest Practicable Date, save for the Agreement, no member of the Group had entered into any contract (not being contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business) within the two years preceding the issue of this circular which are or may be material.

5. LITIGATION

Save as disclosed below, as at the Latest Practicable Date, no member of the Group was engaged in any litigation or claims of material importance and no litigation or claim of material importance was known to the Directors to be pending or threatened against any member of the Group:

GENERAL INFORMATION

APPENDIX V

the Group, the Directors are of the view that Dynamic (B.V.I.) Limited has a reasonable chance to resist the claim. The Directors are of the view that the outcome of this case would not have a material adverse impact on the financial position of the Group.

Regarding the current dispute on Tung Kok Tau project, negotiations with the Chinese joint venture partner of Shenzhen Zhen Wah Harbour Enterprises Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, to settle the outstanding dispute are continuing. The Chinese joint venture partner has made repeated allegations with respect to the authenticity and the legality of the procedures involving the increase of the Group’s shareholding in Shenzhen Zhen Wah Harbour Enterprises Ltd. in an attempt to strengthen its bargaining position. Based on advice from the Company’s PRC legal counsel, the allegations of the Chinese joint venture party are basically groundless. Both parties are still making attempts to settle the differences. However, the Company cannot rule out the need to resort to arbitration if a settlement cannot be reached by the end of the current financial year.

6. SERVICE CONTRACTS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the Directors had any existing or proposed service contract with any member of the Group (excluding contracts expiring or determinable by the Group within one year without payment of compensation, other than statutory compensation).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. CHUA Domingo, Mr. PANG Kit Man, John, Mr. TANENGLIAN Mariano Chua and Mr. CHEUNG Chi Ming held interests and/or directorship in companies engaged in the businesses of property investment and development in Hong Kong and the Mainland China.

As the Board is independent from the boards of the said companies, the Group is capable of carrying on its businesses independently of, and at arm’s length from, the businesses of such companies.

Save as disclosed above, neither the Directors nor their respective associates were considered to have interests in businesses which compete or are likely to compete, either directly or indirectly, with the businesses of the Group pursuant to rule 8.10 of the Listing Rules.

8. DIRECTORS’ INTERESTS IN SIGNIFICANT CONTRACTS AND ASSETS
