REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITION

The Group is principally engaged in system development, professional services, money lending business, proprietary trading business and printing services.

The Directors are of the view that the Acquisition provides a prime opportunity for the Group to step outside the existing principal businesses and enter into the automobile hardware and software industry. The Group is expected to be benefited from diversifying its income stream and expects to increase the Shareholders’ value and benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Acquisition does not create additional debt burden to the Group as the consideration for the Sale Shares is to be satisfied by internal resources of the Group.

In view of the above reasons, the Directors consider that the terms and conditions of the Acquisition are negotiated at arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms, which are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

GEM LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

As one or more of the relevant applicable percentage ratios calculated in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules is greater than 5% but less than 25%, the Acquisition constitutes a discloseable transaction for the Company under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules and is subject to the reporting and announcement requirements but is exempted from shareholders’ approval requirement under the GEM Listing Rules.
