CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

As no Shareholder has an interest in the Acquisition which is materially different from the other Shareholders, no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the resolution to be proposed at the EGM to approve the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further details of the Agreement required under the GEM Listing Rules and the details of the Service Option and to give you a notice of the EGM at which ordinary resolutions will be proposed and, if thought fit, passed to approve (i) the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder; and (ii) the grant of the Service Option and the grant of the Service Option Specific Mandate.

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief after having made all reasonable enquires, the Vendor is an investment holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability and the Vendor and its ultimate beneficial owner are third parties independent of the Company and connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Consideration

The Consideration for the Acquisition is HK$180 million which shall be satisfied as to HK$70 million in cash and as to the balance of HK$110 million by the allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares in the following manner:

  • i. HK$25 million in cash as Deposit, which amount has been paid by the Group pursuant to the Addendum as announced by the Company on 4 March 2010;

  • ii. a further payment of HK$10 million in cash shall be paid to the Vendor on Completion;

  • iii. subject to the 2011 NPAT (as defined in the paragraph headed “Consideration Adjustment” below) is met, a further payment of HK$35 million (“Remaining Cash Consideration”) in cash shall be paid to the Vendor within 7 Business Days from the date on which the audited accounts of Fullmark SH (under PRC GAAP) for the year ending 31 December 2011 have been received by the Purchaser; and

  • iv. the balance of HK$110 million shall be satisfied by the allotment and issue to the Vendor or its nominee the Consideration Shares, credited as fully paid, on Completion.

The full amount of the Remaining Cash Consideration shall only be paid to the Vendor as described above where the 2011 NPAT is met. Where the NPAT is less than RMB16,500,000 and the Remaining Cash Consideration exceeds the Compensation, the Remaining Cash Consideration shall be reduced by an amount which is equal to the amount of the Compensation and the reduced Remaining Cash Consideration shall be paid within 7 Business Days from the date on which the audited accounts of Fullmark SH (under PRC GAAP) for the year ending 31 December 2011 have been received by the Purchaser. Where 2011 NPAT is less than RMB16,500,000 and the Compensation exceeds the Remaining Cash Consideration, the Purchaser is not required to pay any of the Remaining Cash Consideration to the Vendor and the obligation of the Vendor to pay the Compensation shall be reduced by the full amount of the Remaining Cash Consideration.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Consideration will not be affected by the final amount of Sale Debt as at the Completion Date.

The Consideration was arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the parties, taking into account a number of factors including:

  • i. the business prospects of the insurance industry in the PRC as a whole and that of Dongda Agency. The Board considered that the growth of the insurance industry in the PRC had been and would be growing at a phenomenal rate. According to the China Insurance Regulatory Commission (“CIRC”), in terms of total revenue, the insurance industry in the PRC increased from approximately RMB579.3 billion in 2007 to approximately RMB916.1 billion in 2009, representing a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of approximately 25.8%, and the insurance industry in Shanghai increased from approximately RMB48.3 billion in 2007 to approximately RMB66.5 billion in 2009, representing a CAGR of approximately 17.3%. The Board expects that the demand within the insurance industry in the PRC would remain strong in the foreseeable future, which would lead to a stronger demand for technology, such as the InsureLink System, to enhance operational efficiency and cost control;

  • ii. the business prospects of Fullmark SH which has entered into the Cooperation Agreement, details of which are set out under the paragraph headed “The Cooperation Agreement” below. Dongda Brokerage, being a five star ranked market leader in the insurance brokerage business in Shanghai according to CIRC, has the capability to assist Fullmark SH in gaining market

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

recognition for the InsureLink System by promoting the InsureLink System to its wide network base. Fullmark SH is entitled to receive 75% of the revenue from the licensing of the InsureLink System for a period of 10 years under the Cooperation Agreement, and Dongda Brokerage guaranteed that the revenue received by Fullmark SH under the Cooperation Agreement shall be not less than RMB20,000,000 per annum. With Dongda Brokerage’s ability to successfully promote and license the InsureLink System to new customers within the insurance industry, the management of the Company is of the view that the Cooperation Agreement represents a good opportunity for the Target Group to leverage on its technological know-how by utilizing Dongda Brokerage’s status in the market and wide network base; and

  • iii. the consideration adjustment mechanism as described in the paragraph headed “Consideration Adjustment” below.

Consideration Shares

The issue price of the Consideration Shares of HK$0.27 per Consideration Share represents:

  • i. a discount of approximately 3.57% to the closing price of HK$0.28 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day;

  • ii. a discount of approximately 1.10% to the average closing price of approximately HK$0.273 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

  • iii. a discount of approximately 3.57% to the average closing price of approximately HK$0.28 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last ten consecutive trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day;

  • iv. a premium of approximately 5.88% to the closing price of HK$0.255 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date;

  • v. a premium of 250.65% over the consolidated net asset value attributable to the Shareholders per Share of approximately HK$0.077 (calculated based on the audited consolidated net asset value attributable to the Shareholders as at 31 March 2010 of HK$55,675,000 adjusted for the net proceeds of approximately HK$66,900,000 from the placement of an aggregate of 266,000,000 Shares since 28 April 2010 and the number of issued and outstanding Shares of 1,571,700,000 as at the Latest Practicable Date).

Upon Completion, the Company will allot and issue, credited as fully paid, an aggregate of 407,407,407 Consideration Shares, representing approximately:

  • i. 25.92% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date;

  • ii. 20.59% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the issue of the Consideration Shares; and

  • iii. 19.98% of the issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the issue of the Consideration Shares and assuming the Service Option is exercised in full.

The Consideration Shares, which will be issued under the Consideration Share Specific Mandate, when issued, will rank pari passu with all other Shares in issue as at the date of their allotment. An application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consideration Shares.

Neither Completion nor the issue of the Consideration Shares will result in any change of control of the Company.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Consideration Adjustment

Pursuant to the Agreement, if the audited consolidated net profit after tax of Fullmark SH (under PRC GAAP) for the year ending 31 December 2011 (“2011 NPAT”) is less than RMB16.5 million, which is determined with reference to (i) the business prospects of Fullmark SH which has entered into the Cooperation Agreement, in particular, the minimum annual revenue of RMB20,000,000 under such agreement as described under the paragraph headed “The Cooperation Agreement” below; and (ii) the business prospects of the insurance industry in the PRC as a whole and that of Dongda Agency, the Vendor will pay the Purchaser a compensation (“Compensation”) as calculated under the consideration adjustment mechanism (“Consideration Adjustment”) as set out below:

Compensation = (RMB16.5 million - 2011 NPAT) x 9.65 [Note]

Note: Being the implied price-earnings ratio of the Consideration of HK$180 million over the expected 2011 NPAT of RMB16.5 million based on the exchange rate of HK$1.1305 = RMB1.

Where the 2011 NPAT is a negative figure, the 2011 NPAT for the purpose of calculating the Compensation shall be deemed as zero (0).

The Compensation, if any, shall be paid by the Vendor to the Purchaser in cash within seven Business Days from the day on which the audited financial statements of Fullmark SH for the year ending 31 December 2011 has been received by the Vendor.

Except for the abovementioned Consideration Adjustment for the year of 2011, the Vendor will make no additional compensation to the Purchaser from 2012 onwards even if Fullmark SH cannot receive RMB20,000,000 per annum from Dongda Brokerage under the Cooperation Agreement.

INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

The Target is an investment holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 8 August 2008. As at the date of this circular, the principal assets of the Target Group are the InsureLink System, its equity interest in Dongda Agency of 24.9% and cash and bank balances.

On 23 February 2010, the Target Group acquired the core modules of the InsureLink System, a system that connects an insurance broker or agent’s front office seamlessly to its back office and then to the insurance providers by linking all the important business functions of an insurance intermediary into a real-time management system whereby important information could be available for staff, management and also insurance companies. The Target Group subsequently incorporated the core modules with various software in developing the English version of the InsureLink System. A distinct feature of InsureLink System is its capability to generate reports in a timely and efficient manner, which includes, among others, real-time sales reports, real-time claims reports, policy/content amendment reports, insurance premium payment reports and daily sales reports to insurance providers. Another distinct feature of the InsureLink System is that the system could be installed in multiple locations, which then allows real-time and efficient financial and management control. At present, the Target Group owns the license of the InsureLink System and the management of the Company believes that there are no other information management systems in the market that can match the comprehensive nature of the InsureLink System within the insurance intermediary market. The license of the InsureLink System is currently sold and distributed directly to brokers and insurance agents in the PRC by Dongda Brokerage. The license of the InsureLink System is sold by Dongda Brokerage instead of the Target Group because at present, Dongda Brokerage has a larger sales force of over 40 employees in promoting the InsureLink System. In addition, Dongda Brokerage was ranked number 1 and number 17 in Shanghai and in the PRC in 2009 respectively in terms of total revenue in the insurance brokerage market and therefore has a substantial market status and a much broader customer network. Continual upgrades of and trainings on the use of the InsureLink System would be provided

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

to the customers in the PRC jointly by Dongda Brokerage and Fullmark SH. At present, only the English version of the InsureLink System is available, and Fullmark SH is in the course of localizing and preparing the simplified Chinese version of the InsureLink System. Customers will pay an initial license fee and then pay an annual maintenance fee to Dongda Brokerage. It is the intention of the Target Group to provide a one stop solution to the insurance agency and brokerage sector.

Fullmark SH acquired 24.9% interest in Dongda Agency on 22 January 2010 from a third party independent of the Company and connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company. Dongda Agency is a company established in the PRC and provides property and life insurance, professional insurance agency services (such as engineering insurance, cargo transportation liability insurance and group life insurance) and reinsurance agency service. At present, the insurance products and services provided by Dongda Agency are structured by various insurance companies and Dongda Agency sells these insurance products without any modifications to their structures.

The shareholding and group structure of the Target Group as the Latest Practicable Date is set out below.

==> picture [146 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [146 x 304] intentionally omitted <==

As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for their direct or indirect interest in the InsureLink System, Dongda Agency and cash and bank balances, the Target, Fullmark HK, and Fullmark SH has no business nor material assets. As at 30 June 2010, the audited consolidated total assets and total liabilities of the Target were approximately HK$26.2 million (which principally consisted of the book cost of InsureLink system, the Target Group’s share of interest in Dongda Agency and cash and bank balances) and approximately HK$29.4 million (being the shareholder’s loan), respectively.

REASONS FOR AND FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION

The principal activities of the Group are the provision of systems development and integration services, the sales of software and hardware products and provision of professional services.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the principal assets of the Target Group were the InsureLink System, its equity interest in Dongda Agency of 24.9% and cash and bank balances. Dongda Agency is principally engaged in the provision of property and life insurance, professional insurance agency services (such as engineering insurance, cargo transportation liability insurance and group life insurance) and reinsurance agency service. On 31 March 2010, Fullmark SH, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Target, entered into the Cooperation Agreement with Dongda Brokerage.

It has been the Company’s long term goal to maximize Shareholder’s value. In view of the intense market competition for the Group’s existing business particularly for the security and surveillance division, the Company has been exploring business opportunities to expand the Group’s operations and enhance its earnings. In this regard, the Company considers that there are good business prospects for the system provision, integration and software development market within the insurance and insurance brokering business sectors in the PRC as a result of the increased demand for update and efficient back and front office support systems and software to cater for the expansion in insurance products and services. Accordingly, the Directors consider that the Acquisition will not only provide an opportunity for the Group to expand its scope of IT consultancy services by participating in the insurance market in the PRC, which is expected to have a rising demand, through the Target’s interest in Dongda Agency, but also enable the Group to leverage on its existing expertise and experience in the IT consultancy sector, coupled with the intellectual property rights in respect of the InsureLink System owned by Fullmark SH, by cooperating with Dongda Brokerage pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement.

It is the intention of the Company to continue the Group’s existing business in the security and surveillance system and, leverage on its existing expertise and experience in the IT consultancy sector, expand its existing business into the insurance market in the PRC through the Target’s interest in Dongda Agency and cooperation with Dongda Brokerage pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Vendor did not have any nominee on the Board. The Company has confirmed with the Vendor that it has no present intention to nominate any person to become members of the Board upon Completion.

– 14 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Upon Completion, each of the Target, Fullmark HK and Fullmark SH will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and with its accounts to be consolidated with that of the Group. Fullmark SH’s shareholding in Dongda Agency is 24.9%, and therefore Dongda Agency will not be considered as a subsidiary or a joint venture, in the absence of any joint venture agreement, of the Group. According to Hong Kong Accounting Standards 28 - Interest in Associates, equity method will be used to account for the Group’s 24.9% interest in Dongda Agency. Dongda Agency will be accounted for as an associated company and the accounts of Dongda Agency will not be consolidated with that of the Group.

The Completion will result in an increase in the total assets and the total liabilities of the Group by approximately HK$145 million and HK$35 million respectively, details of which can be referred to in the unaudited pro forma statement of assets and liabilities of the Enlarged Group set out in Appendix III to this circular. As the Target Group will become wholly owned subsidiaries of the Group upon Completion, its financial results will be consolidated with those of the Group. According to the financial information of Target Group disclosed in Appendix II, the loss after taxation of Target Group for the period ended 31 December 2009 and six months ended 31 June 2010 were approximately HK$450 and HK$3,211,227 respectively. The actual financial effects of the Acquisition on the Group may or may not be the same upon Completion. Save as disclosed in this circular, the Completion will not result in any other material financial effects on the Group’s total assets, total liabilities and earnings.

The Directors consider that the terms of the Acquisition are fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

PROPOSED GRANT OF SERVICE OPTION AND SERVICE OPTION SPECIFIC MANDATE TO ISSUE THE SERVICE OPTION SHARES

As announced by the Company on 24 February 2010, the Company and Mr. Wong entered into the Service Option Agreement.

The details of the proposed grant of the Service Option to Mr. Wong under the Service Option Agreement are set out below.

To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, the Service Option Grantee and its ultimate beneficial owners are independent of and not connected with the Company and its connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Service Option Shares

The maximum number of 60,000,000 Service Option Shares represent: (i) approximately 3.82% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date; (ii) approximately 3.68% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date as enlarged by the issue of the Service Option Shares; and (iii) approximately 2.94% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date as enlarged by the issue of the Service Option Shares and the Consideration Shares.

The number of the Share Option Shares shall be subject to adjustment in the event that the issued share capital of the Company is altered as a result of any consolidation or sub-division of the share capital of the Company or bonus issue of shares of the Company. Any adjustment to the number of such Service Option Shares shall be made in accordance with the appendix to the letter dated 5 September 2005 issued by the Stock Exchange to all listed issuers regarding share option schemes (“Exchange Letter”).

Pursuant to the appendix to the Exchange Letter, in the event of any consolidation or sub-division of the share capital of the Company, the exercise price of, and the number of shares of the Company issuable under, the Service Option shall be adjusted according to the ratio of the share consolidation or share sub-division whereas in the event of bonus issue of the shares of the Company, the exercise price of the Service Option will be reduced with reference to the bonus issue proportion while the number of shares of the Company issuable under the Service Option will be increased with reference to the bonus issue proportion, in each case, with an intent that the intrinsic value of the Service Option remains unchanged before and after the relevant corporate action.

On 16 April 2010, each share of HK$0.05 of the Company has been subdivided into 10 shares of HK$0.005 (“Share Subdivision”) each after obtaining the approval from the Shareholders. Accordingly, the number of the Service Option Shares has been adjusted from a maximum of 6,000,000 shares of HK$0.05 each to 60,000,000 Shares of HK$0.005 each.

Exercise Price

The exercise price of HK$0.10 per Service Option Share was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and Mr. Wong and represents:

  • (i) a discount of approximately 20.63% to the adjusted closing price of HK$0.126 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 23 February 2010, being the last trading day prior to the date of the Service Option Agreement;

  • (ii) a discount of approximately 10.55% to the average adjusted closing price of HK$0.1118 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Service Option Agreement;

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Use of proceeds

The net proceeds to be received by the Company upon the exercise of the Service Option in full are estimated to be about HK$5.9 million and are intended to be used by the Company as general working capital.

Reasons for the Service Option Agreement and the grant of the Service Option

As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 24 February 2010, the grant of the Service Option to the Service Option Grantee (as nominated by Mr. Wong) serves as remuneration to Mr. Wong for his provision of consultancy and advisory services to the Group in connection with the Acquisition.

Mr. Wong, aged 55, holds a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Adelaide in Australia. He is a fellow member of Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and CPA Australia and; an associate member of The Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators and The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants. Mr. Wong is also a responsible officer for asset management, advising on securities and advising on corporate finance for Sinox Fund Management Limited under the SFO.

Mr. Wong acted as the executive director, deputy general manager, group financial controller and company secretary of Yuexiu Property Company Limited (formerly known as Guangzhou Investment Company Limited), a company listed on the Stock Exchange, for over ten years. He is also an independent nonexecutive director and a member of the audit committee of Asia Orient Holdings Limited, Asia Standard International Group Limited, Century City International Holdings Limited, China Nickel Resources Holdings Company Limited, China Ting Group Holdings Limited, ENM Holdings Limited, First Natural Foods Holdings Limited (provisional liquidators appointed), FU JI Food and Catering Services Holdings Limited (provisional liquidators appointed), Golden Eagle Retail Group Limited, Ngai Lik Industrial Holdings Limited, PacMOS Technologies Holdings Limited, Paliburg Holdings Limited, Regal Hotels International Holdings Limited and TPV Technology Limited, all of these companies are listed on the Stock Exchange. Mr. Wong has over 33 years of experience in finance, accounting and management.

At the beginning of 2010, the Company began to explore ways and/or investment opportunities with the view to enhancing its long term growth prospect and profitability. In this regard, the Company consulted Mr. Wong, who has substantial experience in finance, asset management as well as experience in doing business in the PRC. Mr. Wong suggested the Company to invest in the insurance industry in the PRC which is considered to have high growth potential. Taking into account Mr. Wong’s recommendation and after conducting a preliminary study, the Company decided to pursue making an investment in the PRC insurance and its related industry. Mr. Wong then assisted the Company in identifying potential investment targets and opportunities. Through his connection, Mr. Wong came across the opportunity of investing in the Target Group, which was then referred to the Company. After studying the preliminary information of the Target Group, the Company considered that the Target Group has good business potential and was keen to invest in the Target Group. Given that the

– 19 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Company did not have any connection with the Target Group, the Company requested Mr. Wong to introduce the Target Group to the Company so that the parties could commence negotiation in relation the Acquisition. In addition, the Company requested Mr. Wong to provide the following services:

  • (i) assisting the Company in negotiation with the Vendor on the terms of the Acquisition with the view of enabling the parties to enter into the Agreement;

  • (ii) assisting the Company in performing due diligence on the Target Group, including the collection of the necessary information such as financial reports and industry information from the Target Group;

  • (iii) assisting the Company in analyzing the due diligence materials collected from the Target Group;

  • (iv) advising the Company on the risks related to the Acquisition;

  • (v) assisting the Company in preparing the necessary information about the Target Group to be disclosed in the announcement and the circular in respect of the Acquisition;

  • (vi) liasing with and explaining to the Target Group the regulatory requirements which the Company needs to comply with in relation the Acquisition, such as preparation of the accountants’ report on and the indebtedness statement of the Target Group; and

  • (vii) assisting the auditors of the Company in liaising with the Target Group in preparation of the necessary financial information to be included in the circular in respect of the Acquisition.

Without the introduction by Mr. Wong, the Company would not have known about the investment opportunity relating to the Target Group. In addition, Mr. Wong has made significant contribution in assisting the Company and the Vendor to come into agreement regarding the terms of the Acquisition as well as in assisting the Company in completing the due diligence process regarding the Acquisition. Therefore, the Directors are of the view that Mr. Wong is essential to the Acquisition.

The grant of the Service Option as an incentive will not have any adverse impact on the cashflow of the Group while the shareholder base of the Company will be enlarged and the Company can receive subscription money upon exercise of the Service Option. The Directors believe that the terms of the Service Option Agreement (including the grant of the Service Option and the exercise price) are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The proposed acquisition of the Target also highlights the Group’s intention to leverage on its existing expertise and experience in the IT consultancy sector by expanding into the insurance market in the People’s Republic of China through the Target’s interest in Dongda Agency and cooperation with Dongda Brokerage pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement. The prospects of the Target Group are set out under the paragraphs headed “Future Plans and Prospects” in Appendix II on page 51.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

The application of HKFRS 3 (Revised) may affect the accounting for business combination for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 1st July 2009. HKAS 27 (Revised) will affect the accounting treatment for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary.

The directors of the Target Company anticipate that the application of the other new revised standards, amendments or interpretations will have no material impact on the Consolidated Financial Information.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values, as explained in the accounting policies set out below.

The Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA.

3.1 Basis of consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Information incorporates the Financial Information of the Target Company and entities controlled by the Target Company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where the Target Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.

Where necessary, adjustments are made to the Financial Information of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by other members of the Target Group.

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

3.2 Business combinations

The acquisition of businesses is accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of exchange, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Target Group in exchange for control of the acquiree, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under HKFRS 3 “Business Combinations” are recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognised as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Target Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. If, after reassessment, the Target Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the cost of the business combination, the excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

– 34 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

3.3 Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses and is presented separately in the consolidated statement of financial position.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill arising from an acquisition is allocated to each of the relevant cash-generating units, or groups of cash-generating units, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. For goodwill arising on an acquisition in a financial year, the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment before the end of that financial year. When the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit first, and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill capitalized is included in the determination of the amount of profit or loss on disposal.

3.4 Investments in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are included in the Target Company’s statement of financial position at cost less any identified impairment loss.

3.5 Investments in associates

An associate is an entity over which the investor has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in this Consolidated Financial Information using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Target Group’s share of the net assets of the associates, less any identified impairment loss. When the Target Group’s share of losses of an associate equals or exceeds its interest in that associate (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Target Group’s net investment in the associate), the Target Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. An additional share of losses is provided for and a liability is recognized only to the extent that the Target Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of that associate.

Where a group entity transacts with an associate of the Target Group, profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Target Group’s interest in the relevant associate.

3.6 Intangible assets

Intangible assets other than expenditure on research activities, that are acquired by the Company are stated in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost less accumulated amortisation (where the estimated useful life is finite) and impairment losses.

– 35 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

Amortisation of intangible assets with finite useful lives is charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful lives.

Intangible assets are not amortised while their useful lives are assessed to be indefinite. Any conclusion that the useful life of an intangible asset is indefinite is reviewed annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life assessment for that asset. If they do not, the change in the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for prospectively from the date of change and in accordance with the policy for amortisation of intangible assets with finite lives as set out above.

3.7 Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less subsequent accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of items of plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives and after taking into account of their estimated residual value, using the straightline method.

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the item is derecognised.

3.8 Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the consolidated statement of financial position when a group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables (including trade and other receivables, deposit paid for acquisition of a subsidiary, pledged bank deposits and bank balances and cash) are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any identified impairment losses (see accounting policy on impairment loss on financial assets below).

Impairment loss on financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been affected.

– 36 –

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

For financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or

  • default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or

  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation.

For certain categories of financial asset, such as trade and other receivables and retention receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include the Target Group’s past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the credit period, observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets carried at amortised cost, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, and is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.

For financial assets carried at cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade and other receivables and retention receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. When a trade and other receivable or retention receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to profit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment losses was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities including amount due to ultimate holding company are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, the financial assets are transferred and the Target Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.

– 37 –

APPENDIX II

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.

3.9 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Target Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that the Target Group will be required to settle that obligation. Provisions are easured at the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (where the effect is material).

3.10 Impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill (see the accounting policy in respect of goodwill above)

At the end of the reporting period, the Target Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. In addition, intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and whenever there is an indication that they may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as income immediately.

3.11 Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable in the normal course of business, net of sales related taxes.

Interest income

Interest income from a financial asset (including financial assets at fair value through profit or loss) is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial assets to that assets net carrying amount on initial recognition.

3.12 Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

– 38 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Target Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary difference to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates except where the Target Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Target Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is recognised in to profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

3.13 Foreign currencies

In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of that entity (foreign currencies) are recorded in the respective functional currency (i.e. the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates) at the rates of exchanges prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, and on the translation of monetary items, are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items carried at fair value are included in profit or loss for the period.

– 39 –

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

APPENDIX II

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Target Group’s foreign operations are translated into the presentation currency of the Target Group (i.e. HK$) at the rate of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period, and their income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the year, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period, in which case, the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (the exchange translation reserve).

4. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Target Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Target Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to shareholders through optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The capital structure of the Target Group consists of debt which includes amount due to ultimate holding company as disclosed in Note 17, bank balances and cash as disclosed in Note 16 and equity attributable to owners of the Target Company, comprising issued share capital and reserves. The directors of the Target Company review the capital structure on a regular basis.

6. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Target Group’s major financial instruments include prepayments, bank balances and cash and amount due to a ultimate holding company are disclosed in respective notes. The risks associated with these financial instruments include market risk (currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The policies on how to mitigate these risks are set out below. The management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented on a timely and effective manner.

Currency risk

Currency risk refers to the risk associated with movements in foreign currency rates which will affect the Target Group’s financial results and its cashflow. The management considers the Target Group is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as the directors do not expect the appreciation of the RMB against the HK$ to have any material adverse effect on the operation of the Target Group.

– 40 –

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

Interest rate risk

The Target Group’s bank deposits are short-term in nature and the exposure of the interest rate risk is minimal and no sensitivity to interest rate risk is presented.

The Target Group’s exposure to interest rates on financial liabilities is detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. The Target Group’s cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of the base rate published by the People’s Bank of China arising from the Target Group’s RMB bank deposits.

Sensitivity analysis

A change in interest rates at the end of reporting period would not affect profit or loss.

Credit risk

At 30 June 2010, the Target Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk which will cause a financial loss to the Target Group due to failure to discharge an obligation by the counterparties is arising from the carrying amount of the respective recognised financial assets as stated in the consolidated statement of financial position.

In order to minimise the credit risk, the management of the Target Group has delegated a team responsible for determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. In addition, the Target Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at the end of reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Target Company consider that the Target Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.

The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks in Hong Kong with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies and authorised banks in the PRC with high credit ratings.

None of the Target Group’s financial assets are secured by collateral or other credit enhancements.

Liquidity risk

In the management of the liquidity risk, the Target Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Target Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.

The following table details the Target Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities based on the agreed repayment terms. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Target Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curve at the end of reporting period.

The amounts included above for variable interest rate instruments for non-derivative financial liabilities is subject to change if changes in variance interest rates differ to those estimates of interest rates determined at the end of the reporting period.

7. FAIR VALUE

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

  • the fair value of financial assets with standard terms and conditions and traded in active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market bid prices and ask prices respectively; and

  • the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivate instruments) is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market transactions and dealer quotes for similar instrument.

The directors of the Target Company consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial information approximate to their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

Future Plans and Prospects

The Target is an investment holding company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 8 August 2008. As at the date of this circular, the principal assets of the Target Group are the InsureLink System, its equity interest in Dongda Agency of 24.9% and cash and bank balances.

On 23 February 2010, the Target Group acquired the core modules of the InsureLink System, a system that connects an insurance broker or agent’s front office seamlessly to its back office and then to the insurance providers by linking all the important business functions of an insurance intermediary into a real-time management system whereby important information could be available for staff, management and also insurance companies. The Target Group subsequently incorporated the core modules with various software in developing the English version of the InsureLink System. A distinct feature of InsureLink System is its capability to generate reports in a timely and efficient manner, which includes, among others, real-time sales reports, realtime claims reports, policy/content amendment reports, insurance premium payment reports and daily sales reports to insurance providers. Another distinct feature of the InsureLink System is that the system could be installed in multiple locations, which then allows real-time and efficient financial and management control. At present, the Target Group owns the license of the InsureLink System and there are no other information management systems in the market that can match the comprehensive nature of the InsureLink System within the insurance intermediary market. The license of the InsureLink System is currently sold and distributed directly to brokers and insurance agents in the PRC by Dongda Brokerage. The license of the InsureLink System is sold by Dongda Brokerage instead of the Target Group because at present, Dongda Brokerage has a larger sales force of over 40 employees in promoting the InsureLink System. In addition, Dongda Brokerage was ranked number 1 and number 17 in Shanghai and in the PRC in 2009 respectively in terms of total revenue in the insurance brokerage market and therefore has a substantial market status and a much broader customer network. Continual upgrades of and trainings on the use of the InsureLink System would be provided to the customers in the PRC jointly by Dongda Brokerage and Fullmark SH. At present, only the English version of the InsureLink System is available, and Fullmark SH is in the course of localizing and preparing the simplified Chinese version of the InsureLink System. Customers will pay an initial license fee and then pay an annual maintenance fee to Dongda Brokerage. It is the intention of the Target to provide a one stop solution to the insurance agency and brokerage sector.

On 31 March 2010, Fullmark SH, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Target, entered into the Cooperation Agreement with Dongda Brokerage, which is valid for 10 years, pursuant to following key contract terms:

  • (i) Fullmark SH and Dongda Brokerage have agreed to jointly develop, based on the intellectual property rights of the InsureLink System, the Chinese version of the InsureLink System, and Fullmark SH shall bear all the expenses in the development of the Chinese version of the InsureLink System by providing technical staff, software and equipments;

  • (ii) Fullmark SH shall assign Dongda Brokerage the right of use of the InsureLink System;

  • (iii) Fullmark SH and Dongda Brokerage shall jointly promote the licensing of the InsureLink System to other insurance companies in the PRC and Dongda Brokerage shall bear all the expenses in relation to the promotion of the InsureLink System;

– 51 –

APPENDIX II FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON THE TARGET GROUP

  • (iv) Fullmark SH shall be entitled to receive 75% of the revenue from such licensing business. The revenue sharing ratio from the licensing business was arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the parties after taking into consideration the fact that the intellectual property rights of the InsureLink System are owned by Fullmark SH, which will provide related technical support services to Dongda Brokerage and the end-users of the InsureLink System. Dongda Brokerage guaranteed that the revenue received by Fullmark SH under the Cooperation Agreement shall be not less than RMB20,000,000 per annum;

  • (v) The RMB20,000,000 per annum shall be paid by Dongda Brokerage to Fullmark SH in two installments each year, RMB10,000,000 in January and RMB 10,000,000 in September, for a period of 10 years. In the situation that 75% of Dongda Brokerage’s revenue from the licensing business exceeds RMB20,000,000 per annum, the remainder of the payment shall be made in March of the following year. If the payments are not made according to the Cooperation Agreement, a 5% interest will be charged daily on the amount owed from Dongda Brokerage to Fullmark SH; and

  • (vi) Fullmark SH shall provide related technical support services, system upgrades and training to Dongda Brokerage and the end-users of the InsureLink System, and Dongda Brokerage and the end-users of the InsureLink System will not need to pay additional fees to Fullmark SH in relation to the abovementioned support and maintenance services.

The Target Group has commenced its operation in the marketing of the InsureLink System to insurance brokers and agents. To facilitate the marketing campaign, two senior directors and two mid-level managers have been recruited to join the Target Group. The Target Group is in the final stages of negotiation with a Hong Kong based insurance broker to install the InsureLink System as their operating system. It is expected that the contract will be signed and concluded by October 2010. At present, there are no other contracts signed by the Target Group. However, five insurance intermediaries are closely looking at the InsureLink System and the Target Group expects to draw up specifications for them very soon. The target customers of the Target Group mainly include insurance intermediaries that require the InsureLink System to enhance their technologies and operational efficiencies. The customer base of the Target Group can potentially expand into other industries in the foreseeable future as the InsureLink System is a very flexible software.

The InsureLink System therefore represents a platform for the Target Group to grow on as the simplified Chinese version of the InsureLink System, which is in the course of development, should be able to attract new customers in the local PRC. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, the Target Group will also be guaranteed a steady stream of revenue of at least RMB20,000,000 per annum for a period of 10 years, and this will provide the Target Group with resources to improve and expand on its current operations and products.

On 22 January 2010, Fullmark SH acquired 24.9% interest in Dongda Agency. Dongda Agency is a company established in the PRC and at present, Dongda Agency is engaged in providing traditional property and life insurance, professional insurance agency services (such as engineering insurance, cargo transportation insurance, liability insurance and group life insurance), and reinsurance agency services.

Due to the intense competition of the traditional insurance market in China, Dongda Agency devoted a significant amount of resources in the first half of year 2010 to develop and promote four new insurance products which have the potential to yield higher profit margins in comparison to Dongda Agency’s current insurance products. These new insurance products include overseas kidnap and random insurance, Tibet and Highland travel insurance, clinical trial insurance and migrant worker insurance. It is expected that these new insurance products will generate new revenue streams for Dongda Agency and will benefit Dongda Agency financially in the long run.

Upon completion of the Acquisition, the identifiable assets and liabilities of the Target Group will be accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of the Group at fair value under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standard 3 (Revised) “Business Combination”.

  • (i) The unaudited pro forma adjustment of HK$153,821,000 represented goodwill arising from the Acquisition.

Sale Debt of approximately HK$29,423,000 represented all obligations, liabilities and debt owing or incurred by the Target Group to Expertone Holdings Limited as at 30 June 2010.

For the purposes of the presentation of the unaudited pro forma financial information, the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities of the Target Group are assumed to be equal to their carrying amounts as at 30 June 2010. On completion of the Acquisition, the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities at the completion date will be assessed. As a result of the assessment, the amount of goodwill may be different from the amount estimated based on the basis stated above for the purpose of preparation of the unaudited pro forma statement of assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the actual goodwill arising from the Acquisition may be different from the estimated amount as shown above.

(ii) The total consideration is to be settled in the following manner:

  • (a) Company had paid to the Vendors HK$25,000,000 in cash before signing of the sales and purchases agreement and shall pay to the Vendors HK$10,000,000 in cash at Completion.

The remaining balance of HK$35,000,000 will be paid within 7 Business Days from the date on which the audited accounts of the Target Group have been received by the Company.

APPENDIX III UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE ENLARGED GROUP

  • (iii) The fair value of HK$0.27 is used for the Consideration Shares of 407,407,407 shares to be issued for the illustrative purpose of the unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Assets and Liabilities of the Enlarged Group. The actual fair value will be based on the market price of the shares upon completion of the Acquisition which may be different from the above amount.

  • (2) The adjustment represented the issue of the Consideration Shares (as defined in the circular), which resulted additional share capital of approximately HK$2,037,000 and share premium of approximately HK$107,963,000, for the acquisition of the Target Group as if the Acquisition had taken place on 31 March 2010. The fair value of the Consideration Shares is estimated to be approximately HK$110,000,000 based on the closing price of HK$0.27 per share of the Company as at 11 June 2010.

The fair value of the shares of the Company was HK$0.255 as at the Latest Practicable Date. If the consideration was based on the fair value of the shares of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date, it would have been approximately HK$174,000,000.

  • (3) The adjustment represented the partial settlement of the consideration payable by setting-off against the deposit of HK$25,000,000 paid by the Group before signing of the sales and purchase agreement.
