REASONS FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company is an investment holding company and the Group is principally engaged in the provision of integrated business software solutions and trading of listed securities.
Upon the full subscription of the 350,000,000 Subscription Shares, the gross proceeds raised from the Subscription will be approximately HK$87.5 million. After taking into account the estimated expenses in relation to the Subscription, the estimated net proceeds from the Subscription will be approximately HK$86.15 million, representing a net price of HK$0.2461 per Subscription Share. The net proceeds from the Subscription are intended to be used for repayment of debt of the Group and general working capital of the Group (including trading of securities). In relation to the use of repayment of debt of the Group, the net proceeds may be used to repay the principal and/or interest of the Loan owed to the said subsidiary of Freeman.
The Directors consider that the Subscription represents a good opportunity to raise additional funds to meet the Company’s funding needs, to reduce debt by way of raising funds through equities and strengthen the shareholder base of the Company. Accordingly, the Directors consider that the terms of the Subscription Agreement are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
EGM
An EGM will be convened and held for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving the Subscription Agreement and the transaction contemplated thereunder including the allotment and issue of Subscription Shares under the Specific Mandate. In view of the Loan and the possible repayment of the principal and/or interest of the Loan by the Company using the proceeds of the Subscription, the Subscriber is considered to have a material interest in the Subscription. Accordingly, if the Subscriber or its associates owns any Shares as at the date of the EGM, the Subscriber or its associates will abstain from voting at the EGM in respect of the resolution(s) in relation to the Subscription to the extent of Shares owned by the Subscriber and its associates. As at the date of this announcement, the Subscriber and its associate do not own any Shares. To the best knowledge of the Directors, none of the Shareholders has a material interest in the transaction contemplated under the Subscription Agreement as at the date of this announcement, accordingly, none of the Shareholders will be required to abstain from voting at the EGM in respect of the resolution(s) relating to the Subscription.
