LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED GRANTING OF REPURCHASE MANDATE, GENERAL MANDATE AND EXTENSION MANDATE
At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase issued Shares. The maximum number of Shares that may be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate will be such number which represents 10% of the number of issued shares of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution subject to the Listing Rules.
The Repurchase Mandate will lapse on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting, or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by the Articles of Association or any applicable law of the Cayman Islands to be held, or (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in the general meeting.
The explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to Shareholders in connection with the proposed resolution to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix I to this circular. This contains all the information reasonably necessary to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution.
At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to issue, allot and deal with further Shares representing up to 20% of the number of issued shares of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution.
Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution of the Repurchase Mandate and the General Mandate, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed to grant to the Directors the Extension Mandate to authorise the Directors to issue new Shares in an amount not exceeding the aggregate number of the Shares repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.
Based on 1,232,000,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and on the basis that no new Shares will be issued and no Shares will be repurchased by the Company for the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting:

(1) subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the General Mandate to the Directors, the Company will be allowed under the General Mandate to issue up to a maximum of 246,400,000 Shares, representing 20% of the number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date; and
-
(2) subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 123,200,000 Shares, representing 10% of the number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required under Rule 10.06 of the Listing Rules, to provide Shareholders with all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.
1. LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES
The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the 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.
2. SHARE CAPITAL
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 1,232,000,000 Shares in issue.
Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no new Shares are issued and no Shares are repurchased for the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase up to a maximum of 123,200,000 Shares, representing 10% of the number of issued shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date.
3. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASES
The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate 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 Shares on the Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. 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 earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES
In making repurchases, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purposes in accordance with the Articles of Association, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Listing Rules. The laws of the Cayman Islands provide that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant shares, or the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose. The premium payable on repurchase may only be paid out of either the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the Company’s share
– 9 –
APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
premium before the Shares are repurchased. In accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands, the Shares so repurchased would be treated as cancelled but the aggregate amount of authorised share capital would not be reduced.
5. MATERIAL ADVERSE IMPACT IN THE EVENT OF REPURCHASE IN FULL
Taking into account the current working capital position of the Group, the Directors consider that, if the Repurchase Mandate were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period, it might have a material adverse impact on the working capital and/or gearing position of the Company as compared with the position as at 31 December 2017, being the date on which its latest published audited consolidated financial statements were made up. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or the gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.
6. SHARE PRICES
The highest and lowest market prices at which the Shares had been traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous 12 months up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:
| Month | Highest | Lowest |
|---|---|---|
| HK$ | HK$ | |
| 2017 | ||
| April | 0.340 | 0.295 |
| May | 0.375 | 0.305 |
| June | 0.360 | 0.275 |
| July | 0.460 | 0.315 |
| August | 0.410 | 0.335 |
| September | 0.460 | 0.305 |
| October | 0.375 | 0.285 |
| November | 0.660 | 0.295 |
| December | 0.580 | 0.540 |
| 2018 | ||

| February | 2.490 | 1.290 |
| March | 2.090 | 1.560 |
| April (up to the Latest Practicable Date) | 1.900 | 1.640 |

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
APPENDIX I
7. UNDERTAKING
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 pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the laws of the Cayman Islands and in accordance with the regulations set out in the memorandum of association of the Company and the Articles of Association.
8. CORE CONNECTED PERSON
None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates, have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company under the Repurchase Mandate if the same is approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
No connected persons of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the grant of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
9. THE TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING
If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases on the Company exercising its powers to repurchase securities pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code) 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.

| corporation | ||||
| Ms. Wong Chai Lin | Interest of spouse | 61,600,000 | 5% | 5.56% |
| (Note 4) |
Notes:
-
(1) The percentage of shareholding was calculated based on the total issued share capital of 1,232,000,000 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.
-
(2) Gentle Soar Limited is beneficially and wholly owned by Mr. Gao Yunhong, an executive Director. By virtue of the SFO, Mr. Gao Yunhong is deemed to be interested in the Shares held by Gentle Soar Limited.
-
(3) Masterveyor Holdings Limited is beneficially and wholly owned by Mr. Ng Kin Siu, an executive Director. By virtue of the SFO, Mr. Ng Kin Siu is deemed to be interested in the Shares held by Masterveyor.
-
(4) Ms. Wong Chai Lin is the spouse of Mr. Ng Kin Siu and is therefore deemed to be interested in all the Shares held/owned by Mr. Ng Kin Siu (by himself or through Masterveyor Holdings Limited) by virtue of the SFO.
-
(5) The letter ‘‘L’’ denotes the person’s long position in the Shares.
On the basis of 1,232,000,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming there is no further issue or repurchases of Shares during the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to and including the date of the Annual General Meeting, if the Repurchase Mandate were exercised in full, the shareholding in the Company of Gentle Soar Limited and Mr. Gao Yunhong would be increased from 70% to approximately 77.78% of the issued share capital of the Company. The shareholding in the Company of Masterveyor Holdings Limited, Mr. Ng Kin Siu and Ms. Wong Chai Lin would also be increased from 5% to approximately 5.56% of the issued share capital of the Company. Such increase would not

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code but would result in the aggregate amount of the issued share capital of the Company in the public hands being reduced to less than 25%. The Directors confirm that the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised to the extent as may result in a public shareholding falling below the prescribed minimum percentage.
10. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY
The Company did not repurchase any Shares in the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).
