Dear Sir or Madam,

GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE NEW SHARES AND TO BUY-BACK SHARES, MANDATE TO ISSUE NEW SHARES UNDER THE SHARE SCHEME, RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS AND

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in

– 3 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide the Shareholders with information regarding, among other things, the Issue Mandate, the Buy-back Mandate, the Scheme Mandate and the re-election of the relevant Directors.

By resolutions approved by the Shareholders entitled to vote at the annual general meeting of the Company, which were passed on 30 May 2013, general mandates were given to the Directors to allot, issue and deal with the Shares and to exercise the powers of the Company to buy-back its own Shares in accordance with the relevant rules set out in the Listing Rules and the Takeovers Code. These general mandates will lapse at the conclusion of the forthcoming Annual General Meeting unless renewed at that meeting. Ordinary resolutions will therefore be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to renew the general mandates to allot, issue and deal with Shares and to buy-back Shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Share Scheme, any mandates given to the Board (or its duly authorised committee, officer(s) or delegate(s)) to allot and issue Shares under the Share Scheme will only remain in effect until the conclusion of the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to grant to the Board (or its duly authorised committee, officer(s) or delegate(s)) a new mandate to allot and issue Shares pursuant to the Share Scheme.

ISSUE MANDATE

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve and grant the Issue Mandate. The Shares which may be allotted and issued pursuant to the Issue Mandate are up to 20% of the issued share capital of the Company on the date of passing of the resolution approving the Issue Mandate. In addition, an ordinary resolution will also be proposed for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve the extension of the Issue Mandate by adding to the aggregate number of Shares which may be allotted and issued or agreed conditionally or unconditionally to be allotted and issued by the Directors pursuant to the Issue Mandate the number of Shares bought-back under the Buy-back Mandate, if granted.

Details of the Issue Mandate and the extension of the Issue Mandate are respectively set out in resolution numbers (7) and (8) in the notice of the Annual General Meeting set out on pages 15 and 16 of this circular. The Issue Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable law to be held; and (c) the revocation or variation of the authority given to the Board under the ordinary resolution approving the Issue Mandate by passing of an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

BUY-BACK MANDATE

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve and grant the Buy-back Mandate. The Shares which may be bought-back pursuant to the Buy-back Mandate are up to 10% of the issued share capital of the Company on the date of passing of the resolution approving the Buy-back Mandate.

The Buy-back Mandate will expire upon whichever is the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable law to be held; and (c) the revocation or variation of the authority given to the Board under the ordinary resolution approving the Buy-back Mandate by passing of an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

An explanatory statement as required under the Listing Rules, giving certain information regarding the Buy-back Mandate, is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

SCHEME MANDATE

The Share Scheme was adopted by the Board on 17 October 2013 and by the Shareholders on 26 November 2013. The Share Scheme is not subject to the provisions of Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules and provides (among other things) that (a) for grants to the beneficiaries who are not connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company, the trustee for the Share Scheme (who is a professional institution, the ‘‘Trustee’’) shall subscribe, on behalf of the beneficiaries, for new Shares at nominal value from the Company (the ‘‘Subscription’’); and (b) for grants to the beneficiaries who are connected persons of the Company, the Trustee shall purchase, on behalf of the beneficiaries, Shares from the market, so that the grants under (a) or (b) above will not constitute connected transactions (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company. In accordance with the Share Scheme, the maximum number of Shares which may be subscribed for by the Trustee on behalf of the beneficiaries (other than beneficiaries who are connected persons of the Company), during the period between one annual general meeting and the subsequent annual general meeting, must not exceed 2% of the Company’s issued share capital as at the date of the earlier annual general meeting. At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution will be proposed for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, to approve the Scheme Mandate.

The purpose of the Share Scheme is to attract skilled and experienced personnel, to incentivise them to remain with the Group and to give effect to the Group’s customer-focused corporate culture, and to motivate them to strive for the future development and expansion of the Group, by providing them with the opportunity to acquire equity interests in the Company.

The Board (or its duly authorised committee, officer(s) or delegate(s)) may determine as to which of the Eligible Persons (but excluding any director or any other member of senior management of the Group) should be entitled to receive grants of Shares under the Share Scheme, together with the number of Shares to which each proposed beneficiary should be entitled.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Scheme Mandate will only remain in effect until whichever is the earliest of: (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (b) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable law to be held; and (c) the revocation or variation of the authority given to the Board (or its duly authorised committee, officer(s) or delegate(s)) under the ordinary resolution approving the Scheme Mandate by passing of an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

In accordance with the terms of the Share Scheme, any proposed beneficiary to whom any Share is proposed to be granted through the Subscription under the Share Scheme, including such beneficiaries being management members and employees of the Group (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Directors or any directors of the Company’s subsidiaries who will not be entitled under the Share Scheme to receive grants of Shares through the Subscription under the Share Scheme) and his/her associates (as the term is defined in the Listing Rules), shall abstain from voting on the relevant resolution granting the Scheme Mandate at the Annual General Meeting. As at the Latest Practicable Date, no such beneficiary has been proposed.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 7,591,722,124 Shares of US$0.04 each. Subject to passing of the ordinary resolution approving the Scheme Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares will be issued or bought-back prior to the Annual General Meeting and that no Shares will be purchased from the market pursuant to the Share Scheme, exercise in full of the Scheme Mandate will result in up to 2% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date or 151,834,442 Shares being allotted and issued and the interest of each existing Shareholder will be reduced by approximately 1.96% based on the enlarged issued share capital of 7,743,556,566 Shares (assuming the number of Shares held by the existing Shareholders remains unchanged). On the basis of the closing price of HK$4.42 per Share as at the Latest Practicable Date and the Scheme Mandate being exercised in full, the aggregate market value of the 151,834,442 Shares to be allotted and issued pursuant thereto would be approximately HK$671,108,234. The Company expects that the costs attributable to the grant of any Shares under the Share Scheme will be accounted for by reference to the market value of such Shares at the time of grant. The Company will give due consideration to any financial impact arising from the grant of Shares under the Share Scheme before exercising the Scheme Mandate. Since the date on which the Share Scheme was adopted by the Shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting held on 26 November 2013 to the Latest Practicable Date, no Share was allotted and issued to any Eligible Person under the Share Scheme.

Application will be made to the Stock Exchange for the approval of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares which may be allotted and issued by the Company pursuant to any Subscription under the Share Scheme, representing up to 2% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the resolution approving the Scheme Mandate.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant to article 112 of the Articles, one-third of the Directors for the time being (or, if their number is not three or a multiple of three, then the number nearest to, but not exceeding one-third) shall retire from office by rotation at each annual general meeting of the Company

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

provided that every Director shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. In accordance with article 112 of the Articles, Dr. LEE Jer Sheng and Mr. CHEN Fung Ming will retire from office by rotation at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at such meeting. Pursuant to article 95 of the Articles, Dr. LEE Kuo Yu was appointed as a non-executive Director with effect from 30 May 2013 and, being eligible, will offer herself for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.

Details of the Directors who are prepared to be re-elected at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The notice convening the Annual General Meeting is set out on pages 14 to 18 of this circular. At the Annual General Meeting, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to approve, among other things, the granting of the Issue Mandate, the Buy-back Mandate and the Scheme Mandate as well as the re-election of the relevant Directors.

A form of proxy for use at the Annual General Meeting is enclosed with this circular. Whether or not the Shareholders are able to attend the Annual General Meeting, the Shareholders are requested to complete the accompanying form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the branch share registrar of the Company in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding of the Annual General Meeting. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude the Shareholders from attending and voting at the Annual General Meeting in person if they so wish.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The Board considers that (a) the granting of the Issue Mandate and the Buy-back Mandate; (b) the granting of the Scheme Mandate; and (c) the re-election of the relevant Directors to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommends the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully For and on behalf of the Board TONG Wen-hsin Chairman

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

APPENDIX I

The following is the explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules in connection with the Buy-back Mandate.

LISTING RULES

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to buyback their fully-paid up shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

The Listing Rules provide that all on-market share buy-backs by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by specific approval of a particular transaction or by a general mandate to the directors of the company to make such buy-backs.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 7,591,722,124 Shares of US$0.04 each. Subject to passing of the ordinary resolution approving the Buy-back Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares will be issued, purchased or bought-back prior to the Annual General Meeting, exercise in full of the Buy-back Mandate can result in up to 759,172,212 Shares being bought-back by the Company during the period from 29 May 2014, being the date of the Annual General Meeting, up to the earliest of: (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles or any applicable law to be held; and (iii) the revocation or variation of the authority given to the Board under the ordinary resolution approving the Buy-back Mandate by passing of an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

REASONS FOR BUY-BACK

The Directors believe that it is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole for the Directors to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to buy-back Shares in the market. This will effectively alleviate the extra burden of the Share Scheme and the Share Option Scheme on the Company’s financial results.

FUNDING OF BUY-BACK

Buy-back must be made out of funds which are legally available for such purpose in accordance with all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Any buy-back by the Company may be made out of the profits of the Company or out of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the buy-back or, if authorised by the Memorandum and Articles of Association and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital and, in the case of any premium payable on the buy-back, out of the profits of the Company or

– 8 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

APPENDIX I

from sums standing to the credit of the share premium account of the Company or, if authorised by the Memorandum and Articles of Association and subject to the Companies Law, out of capital.

The Directors consider that the exercise in full of the Buy-back Mandate to buy-back Shares might have a material adverse impact on the working capital or the gearing position of the Company as compared with its financial position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2013. However, no buy-back will be made in circumstances that may have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company unless the Directors consider that such buy-backs are in the best interests of the Company notwithstanding such material adverse impact.

SHARE PRICES

The monthly highest and lowest prices at which the Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous twelve months prior to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Share Prices (per Share) Share Prices (per Share)
Month Highest Lowest
HK$ HK$
2013
April 3.05 2.60
May 4.45 2.95
June 4.45 3.72
July 4.40 3.79
August 5.19 3.96
September 5.60 4.58
October 4.87 4.04
November 4.43 3.80
December 4.41 3.57
2014
January 4.31 3.60
February 4.36 3.65
March 4.84 4.10
April (up to the Latest Practicable Date) 4.48 4.22

THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a buy-back of Shares by the Company, 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 the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or group of

– 9 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF THE BUY-BACK MANDATE

APPENDIX I

Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of shareholding interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and may become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Hon Hai (through Foxconn Far East) was interested in a total of 5,081,034,525 Shares, representing approximately 66.93% of the total issued share capital of the Company as at such date. In the event that the Company exercises the Buy-back Mandate in full, assuming that the number of the issued Shares of the Company remains at 7,591,722,124 Shares and there is no alteration to the existing shareholding of Hon Hai and Foxconn Far East, the indirect shareholding of Hon Hai in the Company will increase to approximately 74.37%. The Directors are not aware of any consequence that would give rise to an obligation on the part of Hon Hai to make a mandatory offer under rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Also, the Directors have no present intention to buy-back Shares to an extent which will result in the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.

DIRECTORS AND THEIR ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates (as the term is defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries if the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

No connected person (as the term is defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company and no such person has undertaken not to do so in the event that the Buy-back Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange, so far as the same may be applicable, to exercise the power of the Company conferred to it under the Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

BUY-BACK MADE BY THE COMPANY

No Share has been bought-back by the Company in the preceding six months (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) ending on the Latest Practicable Date.
