LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Board has resolved to reallocate and change the use of the remaining balance of unutilized Net Proceeds (the ‘‘Proposed Reallocation’’) in the revised manner as set out below subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM:

(i)
Establishing and expanding the scale of our medical,
aesthetic and beauty service businesses, centres and

REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED REALLOCATION

Investment opportunities often do not come along on a standalone basis, but as a combination of businesses and across multiple disciplines. In view of the recent business development strategies and investment opportunities as mentioned above and to cope with enriching the product offerings and service ranges to satisfy diverse customers’ needs by adding on new treatments and procedures, the Company proposes to reallocate the use of Net Proceeds to enhance the Company’s capability to grasp the investment opportunities.

In addition, with the objective of improving the efficiency in the deployment and management of the Net Proceeds to the extent that they remain temporarily idle, in the circumstance where there will have no impact on the subsequent application and utilisation of the Net Proceeds in accordance to the Proposed Reallocation, the Board has resolved to utilise part of the temporarily idle Net Proceeds to purchase wealth management products as the Board deems appropriate and in accordance with to the Company’s investment policy, which in turn will allow the Company to generate a new source of capital revenue, efficiently and effectively manage the Company’s temporarily idle Net Proceeds and pursue better investment return with such currently available internal resources for the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Pursuant to the Company’s investment policy, any wealth management product portfolio to be purchased would be subject to the internal authorisation, risk limits as well as regular reviews by the Board on a quarterly basis with reference to the product types, the potential and historical performance, the risk profile, price or interest rate movements of the relevant products, the total investment positions held and the capital needs of the Group.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement which contains all the information required under Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules for the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the AGM in connection with the granting of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 980,827,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased by the Company after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the AGM, the Directors will be authorised under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase, on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed and recognised by the Securities and Futures Commission and the Stock Exchange, a maximum of 98,082,700 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date, during the period in which the Repurchase Mandate is in force.

2. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

Repurchases would be funded entirely from the Company’s available cash flow or working capital facilities which will be funds legally available under the laws of the Cayman Islands and/or any applicable laws, the Articles of Association and the Listing Rules as the case may be.

4. IMPACT OF REPURCHASE

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital and gearing position of the Company compared with those as at 31 March 2017, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. The Directors do not, however, intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company which is in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

6. GENERAL

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company any of the Shares if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders at the AGM.

No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, nor has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders at the AGM.

7. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company to make repurchases of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, and in accordance with the regulations set out in the memorandum and articles of association of the Company.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

8. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Company repurchasing Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder’s interests, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code. Save as the aforesaid, the Board is not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of an exercise of the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Company, Mr. Tang Chi Fai and Union Medical Care Holding Limited (‘‘Union Medical Care’’) are the controlling shareholders of the Company (as defined in the Listing Rules), which were interested in 724,431,230 Shares, representing approximately 73.86% of the total issued share capital of the Company. Assuming exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate by the Directors and there will be no change in the issued share capital of the Company or alterations to the existing shareholding of Mr. Tang Chi Fai and Union Medical Care, the aggregate percentage shareholding of Mr. Tang Chi Fai and Union Medical Care will be increased to approximately 82.07% of the total issued share capital of the Company. The Directors believe that such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors have no present intention of exercising the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in the number of Shares in the hands of the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25% of the total issued share capital of the Company as required under the Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules.

9. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not repurchased any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the financial year ended 31 March 2017 up to the Latest Practicable Date.
