To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of CCT Tech dated 9 November 2006.

CCT Tech is owned as to approximately 74.63% by CCT Telecom and is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of CCT Telecom. As CCT Telecom is a substantial shareholder of CCT Tech, CCT Telecom is a connected person of CCT Tech under the Listing Rules. Transactions between the CCT Tech Group and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group therefore constitute continuing connected transactions for CCT Tech under the Listing Rules.

CCT Tech has obtained from the Stock Exchange the waivers from strict compliance with the disclosure requirements under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules in respect of certain continuing connected transactions, which include those continuing connected transactions contemplated under the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement. The waivers will expire on 31 December 2006. As the Continuing Connected Transactions will continue to be carried out in the usual and ordinary course of business of the CCT Tech Group, CCT Tech has entered into the New Manufacturing Agreement with CCT Telecom on 9 November 2006 to renew the terms and conditions of the continuing connected transactions contemplated under the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement. The New Manufacturing Agreement will replace both the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement and will be effective as from the date of approval by the Independent Shareholders at the SGM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As (i) each of the applicable percentage ratios (other than the profits ratio and the equity capital ratio which are not applicable) as set out in Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than 25% on an annual basis; and (ii) the annual consideration for the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than HK$10,000,000, the New Manufacturing Transactions are subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Rule 14A.35 of the Listing Rules.

The executive Directors are of the view that the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement have been negotiated on an arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms and are in the best interests of the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders as a whole. The SGM will be convened and held to approve the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps. CCT Telecom and its associates will abstain from voting in respect of the resolution(s) for approving the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps at the SGM.

The Independent Board Committee has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders on the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps.

An independent financial adviser, Hantec, has been appointed to advise the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders as to whether or not the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

The purpose of this circular is:

  • (i) to provide the Shareholders with details of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps;

  • (ii) to set out the opinion of Hantec to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders in respect of the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps;

  • (iii) to set out the recommendation of the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps; and

  • (iv) to give the Shareholders the notice of the SGM to consider and, if thought fit, to approve the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Subject:

Term:

Price:

Pursuant to the New Manufacturing Agreement, CCT Telecom will, and/or will procure other members of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to, manufacture the Components Products and the Toolings for supply to CCT Tech and/or other members of the CCT Tech Group for the production of the consumer telecom and electronic products and accessories. The Components Products and the Toolings to be manufactured by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group will be manufactured in accordance with the specifications and requirements of the CCT Tech Group.

The New Manufacturing Agreement has a fixed term of not exceeding three years as provided under Rule 14A.35 of the Listing Rules and will continue until 31 December 2009. Both parties may renew the New Manufacturing Agreement in writing upon expiry on 31 December 2009 for another three years subject to compliance with the Listing Rules and either party will have the right to terminate the New Manufacturing Agreement without cause by serving the other party with not less than three months’ prior written notice.

In respect of the transactions contemplated under the New Manufacturing Agreement, the price of the Components Products to be produced and supplied by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group shall be determined on an arm’s length basis and shall be fixed on a case-by-case basis, depending on the model to be produced provided that the price of the Components Products shall be capped by the amount of direct material costs plus a mark-up of no more than 150%. The sale price in respect of specific models of the Components Products payable by the CCT Tech Group is comparable to that charged by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the other independent customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group. The amount of the sale price will be payable by the CCT Tech Group by cash, by cheque or bank transfer, unless otherwise agreed, will be payable within 100 days from the dates of monthly statements which set out the outstanding invoices. The terms of payment are comparable to those credit terms granted to the other third party customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group.

The price of the Toolings will be determined on an arm’s length basis with reference to the market price provided that the price of the Toolings shall be capped by the total costs of manufacturing the Toolings plus a mark-up of no more than 50% of such costs, subject to certain rebates depending on the total quantity of the Components Products to be manufactured by the Toolings, as agreed between the CCT Telecom Remaining Group and the CCT Tech Group. The pricing and the credit terms are comparable with other third party customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Historical figures and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps

The financial information regarding the sale of the Components Products and the Toolings by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group for each of the two years ended 31 December 2004 and 2005 and for the six months ended 30 June 2006 is set out as follows:

The Directors proposed that the cap amounts of the sales of the Components Products including the Toolings from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group under the New Manufacturing Agreement for each of the three financial years ending 31 December 2009 will not exceed HK$700 million, HK$900 million and HK$1,050 million, respectively. The basis of the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps is determined with reference to: (i) the historical figures of the sales of the Components Products and the Toolings to the CCT Tech Group by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group; (ii) the expectation of the CCT Tech Group to use more Components Products and the Toolings to cater for the increasing manufacture demand of the consumer telecom and electronic products as a result of the anticipated business growth; (iii) additional sales orders to be placed by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group for its new trading business of the consumer electronic products; and (iv) the anticipated business growth of the CCT Tech Group in the next three years due to the anticipated increasing demand for the consumer telecom and electronic products as a whole. The New Manufacturing Transactions Caps for the three years ending 31 December 2009 are determined with reference to the above factors.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

The executive Directors are of the view that the Continuing Connected Transactions under the New Manufacturing Agreement are entered into, and will continue to be entered into, in the usual and ordinary course of business of the CCT Tech Group. The terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions have been negotiated and will be conducted on an arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms. The executive Directors consider that it is in the interests of the CCT Tech Group to continue to purchase the Components Products and the Toolings from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group as the CCT Telecom Remaining Group can offer quality Components Products and

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

reliable delivery service at a competitive price. The executive Directors are of the view that the Continuing Connected Transactions and the terms thereof are fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders as a whole.

CONDITIONS OF THE CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

The Continuing Connected Transactions are subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements pursuant to Rule 14A.35 of the Listing Rules.

CCT Tech will therefore seek for the approval by the Independent Shareholders of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps for a period of the three financial years ending 31 December 2009 on the following conditions:

  • (a) Transactions caps:

The estimated value of the transactions as set out in the New Manufacturing Agreement for each of the three financial years ending 31 December 2009 will not exceed HK$700 million, HK$900 million and HK$1,050 million, respectively.

  • (b) The Continuing Connected Transactions will be in compliance with the followings:

  • (i) the Continuing Connected Transactions will be entered into in the usual and ordinary course of business of the CCT Tech Group;

  • (ii) the Continuing Connected Transactions will be conducted either (A) on normal commercial terms; or (B) if there is no available comparison, on terms no less favourable to the CCT Tech Group than terms available from the independent third parties; and

  • (iii) the Continuing Connected Transactions will be entered into in accordance with the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement.

  • (c) Brief details of the Continuing Connected Transactions will be disclosed in the next and each successive annual report of CCT Tech, each will be accompanied with a statement of opinion of the independent non-executive Directors in such manner as referred to in paragraph (d) below.

  • (d) The independent non-executive Directors will review annually the Continuing Connected Transactions, and they will confirm in the annual report of CCT Tech for the year in question that the Continuing Connected Transactions under their review were conducted in the manner as stated in paragraphs (a) to (c) above.

  • (e) The auditors of CCT Tech will review annually the Continuing Connected Transactions, and they will confirm in a letter to the Directors (a copy of which will be provided to the Stock Exchange at least 10 Business Days prior to the bulk printing of the annual report of CCT Tech) in respect of each relevant financial year, during which the Continuing Connected Transactions were conducted, stating that:

  • (i) the Continuing Connected Transactions have been approved by the Directors;

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (ii) the Continuing Connected Transactions have been entered into in accordance with the New Manufacturing Agreement governing the transactions;

  • (iii) the value of the Continuing Connected Transactions has not exceeded the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps set out in paragraph (a) above; and

  • (iv) the Continuing Connected Transactions have been entered into in accordance with the pricing policy of the CCT Tech Group,

and where for whatever reasons, if the auditors of CCT Tech decline to accept the engagement or are unable to provide the auditors’ letter to the Directors, the Directors will contact the Listing Division of the Stock Exchange immediately.

  • (f) So long as the Shares are listed on the Stock Exchange, CCT Tech will provide to the Stock Exchange an undertaking that CCT Tech will, and will procure CCT Telecom to, provide the auditors of CCT Tech with full access to the relevant records of the Continuing Connected Transactions for the purpose of the auditors’ review as referred to in paragraph (e) above.

CCT Tech will comply with the applicable provisions of the Listing Rules governing connected transactions or will apply for the waiver from strict compliance with the relevant requirements in the event that the total amount of the New Manufacturing Transactions exceeds the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps, or that there is any material amendment to the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement.

GENERAL

The CCT Tech Group is currently engaged in the manufacture, sale, design and development of the telecom and electronic products on an original design manufacturing basis and a contract manufacturing basis.

The CCT Telecom Group is principally engaged in (i) the manufacture, sale, design and development of the telecom and electronic products through the CCT Tech Group; (ii) the manufacture of the power supply and plastic components; (iii) the manufacture and sale of the baby products; (iv) the provision of e-commerce services; and (v) the investment in the properties and securities.

CCT Tech is owned as to approximately 74.63% by CCT Telecom and is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of CCT Telecom. As CCT Telecom is a substantial shareholder of CCT Tech, CCT Telecom is a connected person of CCT Tech under the Listing Rules. Transactions between the CCT Tech Group and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group therefore constitute continuing connected transactions for CCT Tech under the Listing Rules.

As (i) each of the applicable percentage ratios (other than the profits ratio and the equity capital ratio which are not applicable) as set out in Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules in respect of the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than 25% on an annual basis; and (ii) the annual consideration for the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than HK$10,000,000, the New Manufacturing Transactions are subject to the reporting, announcement and independent shareholders’ approval requirements under Rule 14A.35 of the Listing Rules.

Dear Sirs and Madams,

CONTINUING CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our engagement as the independent financial adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders on the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps, details of which are contained in the letter from the Board (the ‘‘Letter from the Board’’) contained in the circular (the ‘‘Circular’’) of CCT Tech to the Shareholders dated 30 November 2006, of which this letter forms part. Terms used in this letter have the same meanings as defined in the Circular unless the context otherwise requires.

CCT Tech is owned as to approximately 74.63% by CCT Telecom and is a non wholly-owned subsidiary of CCT Telecom. As CCT Telecom is a substantial shareholder of CCT Tech, CCT Telecom is a connected person of CCT Tech under the Listing Rules. Transactions between the CCT Tech Group and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group therefore constitute continuing connected transactions for CCT Tech under the Listing Rules.

CCT Tech has obtained from the Stock Exchange the waivers from strict compliance with the disclosure requirement under the Listing Rules in respect of the continuing connected transactions contemplated under the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement. The waivers will expire on 31 December 2006. As a result, CCT Tech has entered into the New Manufacturing Agreement to replace both the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement, which will become effective as from the date of approval by the Independent Shareholders at the SGM. As (i) each of the applicable percentage ratios (other than the profits ratio and the equity capital ratio which are not applicable) in respect of the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than 25% on an annual basis; and (ii) the annual consideration for the New Manufacturing Transactions is expected to be higher than HK$10,000,000, the New Manufacturing Transactions are subject to the reporting, announcement and independent

shareholders’ approval requirements under Rule 14A.35 of the Listing Rules. The SGM will be convened and held to approve the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps. CCT Telecom and its associates will abstain from voting in respect of the resolution(s) for approving the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps at the SGM. The Independent Board Committee, comprising the independent non-executive Directors, namely Mr. Lau Ho Kit, Ivan, Mr. Chow Siu Ngor and Mr. Chen Li, has been formed to advise the Independent Shareholders on the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps.

BASIS OF OUR ADVICE

In formulating our recommendation, we have relied on the statements, information, opinions and representations contained in the Circular and the information and representations provided to us by the Directors and the management of CCT Tech. We have assumed that all information, representations and opinions contained or referred to in the Circular and all information, representations and opinions which have been provided by the Directors and the management of CCT Tech for which they are solely responsible, are true and accurate at the time they were made and will continue to be accurate at the date of the despatch of the Circular.

The Directors jointly and severally accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in the Circular and confirm, having made all reasonable enquiries, that to the best of their knowledge and belief, opinions expressed in the Circular have been arrived at after due and careful consideration and there are no other facts not contained in the Circular the omission of which would make any such statement contained in the Circular misleading.

We have no reason to suspect that any relevant information has been withheld, nor are we aware of any fact or circumstance which would render the information provided and representations and opinions made to us untrue, inaccurate or misleading. We have not, however, carried out any independent verification of the information provided by the Directors and the management of CCT Tech, nor have we conducted an independent investigation into the business and affairs of the CCT Telecom Group.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT

In arriving at our opinion with regards to the terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement, the New Manufacturing Transactions and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps, we have considered the following principal factors and reasons:

1. Background and reason for the New Manufacturing Transactions

The CCT Tech Group is currently engaged in the manufacture, sale, design and development of the telecom and electronic products on an original design manufacturing basis and a contract manufacturing basis.

The CCT Telecom Group is principally engaged in (i) the manufacture, sale, design and development of the telecom and electronic products through the CCT Tech Group; (ii) the manufacture of the power supply and plastic components; (iii) the manufacture and sale of the baby products; (iv) provision of e-commerce services; and (v) the investment in the properties and securities.

LETTER FROM HANTEC

The executive Directors are of the view that the Continuing Connected Transactions under the New Manufacturing Agreement are entered into, and will continue to be entered into, in the usual and ordinary course of business of the CCT Tech Group. The terms of the Continuing Connected Transactions have been negotiated and will be conducted on an arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms. The executive Directors consider that it is in the interests of the CCT Tech Group to continue to purchase the Components Products and the Toolings from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group as the CCT Telecom Remaining Group can offer quality Components Products and reliable delivery service at a competitive price.

The CCT Telecom Remaining Group is one of the major suppliers of the CCT Tech Group for supply of the Components Products and the Toolings to the CCT Tech Group for the production of the consumer telecom and electronic products. The sale of the Components Products and the Toolings from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group for the year ended 31 December 2005 amounted to approximately HK$472 million, represented approximately 15% of the total purchase of the CCT Tech Group for the year ended 31 December 2005. Considering the business nature of each of the CCT Tech Group and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group, we consider that the New Manufacturing Transactions have been conducted in the usual and ordinary course of business of the CCT Tech Group. In light of the above and given that the Continuing Connected Transactions provide the CCT Tech Group a stable supply of quality Components Products, we consider that the entering into the New Manufacturing Agreement is in the interests of the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders as a whole.

2. Principal terms of the New Manufacturing Agreement

CCT Tech entered into the New Manufacturing Agreement with CCT Telecom on 9 November 2006, pursuant to which CCT Telecom will continue, and/or will procure other members of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to, manufacture the Components Products and the Toolings for supply to CCT Tech and/or other members of the CCT Tech Group for the production of the consumer telecom and electronic products and accessories. The Components Products and the Toolings to be manufactured by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group will be manufactured in accordance with the specifications and requirements of the CCT Tech Group.

Term and termination

The New Manufacturing Agreement has a fixed term of not exceeding three years and will continue until 31 December 2009. We note that such three-year term is in compliance with the Listing Rules.

Both parties may renew the New Manufacturing Agreement in writing upon expiry on 31 December 2009 for another three years subject to compliance with the Listing Rules and either party will have the right to terminate the New Manufacturing Agreement without cause by serving the other party with not less than three months’ prior written notice. Accordingly, the CCT Tech Group has no obligation to purchase exclusively from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group and may purchase from independent third party suppliers whenever necessary.

Pricing

In respect of the transactions contemplated under the New Manufacturing Agreement, the price of the Components Products to be produced and supplied by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group shall be determined on an arm’s length basis and shall be fixed on a case-by-case basis, depending on the model to be produced provided that the price of the

— 16 —

LETTER FROM HANTEC

Components Products shall be capped by the amount of direct material costs plus a mark-up of no more than 150% (‘‘Maximum Mark-up’’). The sale price in respect of specific models of the Components Products payable by the CCT Tech Group is comparable to that charged by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the other independent customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group. The amount of the sale price will be payable by the CCT Tech Group by cash, by cheque or bank transfer, unless otherwise agreed, will be payable within 100 days from the dates of monthly statements which set out the outstanding invoices. The terms of payment are comparable to those credit terms granted to the other third party customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group. On the other hand, the price of the Toolings shall be determined on an arm’s length basis with reference to market price provided that the price of the Toolings shall be capped by the total costs of manufacturing the Toolings plus a mark-up of no more than 50% of such costs, subject to certain rebates depending on the total quantity of the Components Products to be manufactured by the Toolings, as agreed between the CCT Telecom Remaining Group and the CCT Tech Group. The pricing and the credit terms are comparable with other third party customers of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group.

To assess the Maximum Mark-up, we have reviewed samples of the sales invoices of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group and the breakdown of the costs of the direct materials related to the Components Products sold to the CCT Tech Group and found that the mark-up of the Components Products under review was below the Maximum Mark-up. As advised by the Directors, the Maximum Mark-up is fixed to allow the flexibility of the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to determine the price of the Components Products for the new consumer telecom and electronic products manufactured by the CCT Tech Group during the next three years. In any case, the price to be charged by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group for the Components Products to be manufactured for the CCT Tech Group will be determined on an arm’s length basis and will be conducted on normal commercial terms. We therefore consider that the Maximum Mark-up is to allow flexibility in determining pricing of the Components Products and will not have any unfavourable impact on the CCT Tech Group as the CCT Tech Group has the right to purchase from other suppliers anytime when it considers appropriate.

To assess whether the prices of the Components Products and the Toolings offered by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group are fair, we have compared the prices recently offered by an independent third party supplier with those offered by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group for more than 5 selected samples of similar components and toolings and found that the prices offered by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group fall within the range of the comparable transactions and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group offers a more favourable payment term than the independent supplier.

3. The New Manufacturing Transactions Caps

The following table summarise the figures of the continuing connected transactions under the Manufacturing Agreement and the PSC Manufacturing Agreement (the ‘‘Historical Transactions’’) for each of the two years ended 31 December 2004 and 2005 and the six months ended 30 June 2006, the approved cap amounts previously granted for each of the three years ended 31 December 2006 and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps:

Financial year Financial year Financial year Financial year
ended 31 December ending 31 December
2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009
(HK$ (HK$ (HK$ (HK$ (HK$ (HK$
million) million) million) million) million) million)
Transaction amounts of

(Note)

New Manufacturing
Transactions Caps 700 900 1,050

Note: The figure referred to the total amount of the Historical Transactions for the six months ended 30 June 2006.

As set out in the Letter from the Board, the basis of the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps for the three years ending 31 December 2009 is determined with reference to: (i) the historical figures of the sales of the Components Products and the Toolings to the CCT Tech Group by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group; (ii) the expectation of the CCT Tech Group to use more Components Products and Toolings to cater for the increasing manufacture demand of the consumer telecom and electronic products as a result of the anticipated business growth; (iii) additional sales orders to be placed by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group for its new trading business of consumer electronic products; and (iv) the anticipated business growth of the CCT Tech Group in the next three years due to the anticipated increasing demand for the consumer telecom and electronic products as a whole.

As advised by the management of CCT Tech, the approved annual cap amounts previously granted for the two years ended 31 December 2005 and the year ending 31 December 2006 were proposed by the management of the CCT Tech Group in 2004 with reference to the then operation scale and sales projection for the three financial years 2004, 2005 and 2006. Subject to the unexpected shortage of labour and power shortage in the Pearl River Delta region during the three financial years 2004, 2005 and 2006, the production capacity of the CCT Tech Group and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group for the three financial years 2004, 2005 and 2006 has been affected. As a result, the growth in sales of the Components Products to the CCT Tech Group by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group was below estimate during the three financial years 2004, 2005 and 2006. This explains the reason of the amount of sales of the Components Products and the Toolings from the CCT Telecom Remaining Group to the CCT Tech Group for the three financial years ended 2004, 2005 and 2006 is far below the approved annual cap amounts previously granted.

LETTER FROM HANTEC

To assess whether the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps for the three years ending 31 December 2009 are fair and reasonable, we have discussed with the management of CCT Tech and the Directors expect that more Components Products and Toolings will be purchased to cater for the increasing manufacture demand of the consumer telecom and electronic products and the increase in the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps in 2007, 2008 and 2009 is mainly attributable to the anticipated increase of the consumer telecom and electronic products based on:

  • (i) the anticipated additional sales orders to be placed by the CCT Telecom Remaining Group considering that the CCT Telecom Remaining Group is going to establish its trading business of consumer electronic products and the CCT Telecom Remaining Group agrees to purchase consumer electronic products from the CCT Tech Group for trading purpose as disclosed in the circular of CCT Tech dated 8 August 2006;

  • (ii) the expected growth in the manufacture demand of the consumer telecom and electronic products in next few years under the additional manufacturing facilities to be established by CCT Tech in the Liaoning Province, the People’s Republic of China in 2007 as disclosed in the interim report of CCT Tech for the six months ended 30 June 2006; and

  • (iii) the strong growth of sales from markets outside the United States in 2006 and the launch of new products in the second half of 2006 and coming years as disclosed in the interim report of CCT Tech for the six months ended 30 June 2006. The sales from the European market reported a sales growth of approximately 296% for the six months ended 30 June 2006 as compared with the corresponding period in 2005. The Directors expect that, under current economic conditions, the launch of new products in the second half of 2006 and coming years and the increasing use of broadband and wireless products will offer considerable opportunities to CCT Tech and the product demand for the coming years would increase.

As advised by the Directors, the estimated transaction amount of the Historical Transactions for the year ending 31 December 2006 will be approximately HK$520 million which was estimated with reference to the actual transaction amount for the ten months ended 31 October 2006. The estimated transaction amount for 2006 represents an increase of approximately 10% as compared with the transaction amount of last financial year while the increase of the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps represents an increase of about 17% to 35% for the three years ending 31 December 2009. In view of the expected increasing manufacture demand of the consumer telecom and electronic products as a result of the anticipated business growth as discussed above, we are of the view that the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps are consistent with the CCT Tech Group’s growth trend and therefore fair and reasonable as far as the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders are concerned.

RECOMMENDATION

Having taken into account the principal factors and reasons referred to the above, we are of the opinion that the New Manufacturing Agreement and the New Manufacturing Transactions are in the interests of the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders as a whole and the New Manufacturing Transactions Caps are fair and reasonable so far as the CCT Tech Group and the Shareholders are concerned. We therefore advise the Independent Shareholders, and the Independent Board Committee to recommend the Independent Shareholders, to vote in favour of the ordinary resolution(s) to be proposed at the SGM.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of Hantec Capital Limited Thomas Lai Director

  3. Any shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the meeting is entitled to appoint another person as his/her proxy to attend and vote instead of him/her. A shareholder who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint not more than two proxies (who must be an individual or individuals) to attend and vote instead of him/her on the same occasion. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company but must attend the meeting in person to represent him/her.

  4. In order to be valid, the form of proxy in the prescribed form, together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such power or authority, must be lodged with the branch share registrar and transfer office of the Company in Hong Kong, Tengis Limited at 26/F., Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong, not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or any adjourned meeting thereof (as the case may be). Such prescribed form of proxy for use at the meeting is also published on the website of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited at www.hkex.com.hk.

  5. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude a shareholder from attending and voting in person at the meeting or any adjourned meeting thereof (as the case may be) should they so wish and in such event, the form of proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.

  6. Where there are joint registered holders of any share(s), any one of such joint holders may attend and vote at the meeting or any adjourned meeting thereof (as the case may be), either in person or by proxy, in respect of such share(s) as if he/she was solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders are present at the meeting or any adjourned meeting thereof (as the case may be), the most senior shall alone be entitled to vote, whether in person or by proxy. For this purpose, seniority will be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company in respect of the joint holding.
