APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This Appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to Members for consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised of 89,860,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of ordinary resolution no. 4 as set out in the notice of Annual General Meeting and on the basis that no Shares are issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 8,986,000 Shares (represents 10% of the issued Shares of the Company as at the date of passing the resolution to approve the Repurchase Mandate) during the period in which the Repurchase Mandate remains in force.

The Repurchase and Issuance Mandates, unless revoked or varied by way of an ordinary resolution of the shareholders in general meeting, will expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company, which will be convened on or before 30 September 2010.

2. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the proposed granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Members as a whole.

Repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, result in an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share. The Directors are seeking granting of the Repurchase Mandate to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number of Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time, having regard to the circumstances then pertaining.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Any repurchases will only be funded out of funds of the Company legally available for the purpose of making the proposed Repurchase Mandate in accordance with its Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

The Company is empowered by its Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws to repurchase its Shares. Under Bermuda law, repurchases may only be effected out of either the capital paid up on the relevant shares or the funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for such purpose. The amount of premium payable on repurchase may only be paid out of funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account of the Company before the Shares are repurchased.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

4. EFFECT OF EXERCISING THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

There might be material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the latest published audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2009) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, 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.

5. DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

None of the Directors and, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, none of their respective associates, have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

6. DIRECTOR’S UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and applicable laws of Bermuda.

7. TAKEOVERS CODE CONSEQUENCE

If on the exercise of the power to repurchase Shares 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, 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 for all Shares not already owned by such Shareholder or group of Shareholders.

  • 7 -

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the following Shareholders are interested in more than 5 per cent of the Shares in issue:

Number Percentage
Name of Shares Holding
Ng Tat Leung, George 15,690,069 17.46%
Heung Kit Ha 12,786,081 14.23%
Liu Pui Lan 12,786,081 14.23%
Newly Rich International Overseas Limited 12,786,081 14.23%

Lam Yin Fong 5,587,550 6.22%
Toplite Global Capital Limited 5,587,550 6.22%

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares in accordance with the Repurchase Mandate, the total interests of the above Shareholders in the Shares would be increased to:

Percentage
Name Holding
Ng Tat Leung, George 19.40%
Heung Kit Ha 15.81%
Liu Pui Lan 15.81%
Newly Rich International Overseas Limited 15.81%
Total Success Worldwide Limited 13.32%
Cheung Oi Chun 12.36%
Grand Legend Limited 7.11%
Lo Chun Yang 7.11%
Loh Siu Yin, Lulu 7.11%
Lam Yin Fong 6.91%
Toplite Global Capital Limited 6.91%

The Directors are not aware of any consequences which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any purchase made under the Repurchase Mandate. However, the Company may not repurchase Shares which would result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% as prescribed in the Listing Rules.

8. SHARE REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

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