CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and midsized 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.

Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, 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.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

This Appendix II serves as an explanatory statement given to all Shareholders relating to a resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting authorising the proposed Repurchase Mandate.

This explanatory statement contains all information pursuant to Rule 13.08 and other relevant provisions of the GEM Listing Rules which is set out as follows:

This Appendix contains the particulars pursuant to Rule 13.08 and other provisions of the GEM Listing Rules to be included in an explanatory statement to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the granting of the Repurchase Mandate.

GEM LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The GEM Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on GEM or on any other stock exchange on which securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised for this purpose by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong and the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the GEM Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchase of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of shareholders, either by way of a general mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of Shares in issue was 480,000,000 Shares. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 48,000,000 Shares which represent 10% of the total number of issued Shares during the period ending on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by Cayman Companies Law or the Articles of Association; or (iii) the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by a resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting prior to the next annual general meeting of the Company.

REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase its Shares on the Stock Exchange. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or its 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. The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares.

– 12 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Repurchases of Shares will be financed out of funds legally available for the purpose and in accordance with the Articles of Association, and the GEM Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Cayman Islands and Hong Kong. Under the Cayman Companies Law, any repurchase by the Company may be made out of profits or share premium of the Company or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase or, subject to the Cayman Companies Law, out of capital and, in the case of any premium payable on the repurchase, out of the profits of the Company or from sums standing the credit of the share premium account of the Company or, subject to the Cayman Companies Law, out of capital.

IMPACT ON WORKING CAPITAL OR GEARING POSITION

The Directors would only exercise the power to repurchase in circumstances where they consider that the repurchase would be in the best interests of the Company. The Directors consider that if the Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full at the current prevailing market value, it may not have a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Company, as compared with the positions disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as at 31 March 2022, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company were made up. The Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

REPURCHASE OF SHARES MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchase of Share has been made by the Company during the last six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).

DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates, as defined in the GEM Listing Rules, currently intend to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

No core connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any of his/her/its Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, or have undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved and exercised.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

DIRECTORS’ UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles of Association.

CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

No core connected person (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised.

THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND EFFECT OF THE EXERCISING THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of the Shareholder’s interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeover Codes as a results of any repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, LCK Group Limited and Mr. Lo Chun Kit Andrew held 351,220,000 Shares, representing approximately 73% of the total number of the issued Shares. LCK Group Limited is wholly owned by Mr. Lo Chun Kit Andrew, Chairman of the Board, chief executive officer and executive Director. In the event that the Directors should exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, the shareholding of LCK Group Limited and Mr. Lo Chun Kit Andrew will be increased to approximately 80% of the total number of the issued Shares of the Company. To the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, such increase would not give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code.

The GEM Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase on the Stock Exchange if the result of the repurchase would be that less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Stock Exchange) of the issued share capital would be in public hands. The Directors do not propose to repurchase Shares which would result in less than the prescribed minimum percentage of Shares in public hands.

SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchase of Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) have been made by the Company in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
