CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GEM OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE

The GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock 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 the GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

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

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Placing Agreement

Date:

Placing Agent:

Placees:

Number of Placing Shares:

6 July 2012.

Huatai Financial Holdings (Hong Kong) Limited. To the best of the Company’s information and belief, the Placing Agent and its ultimate beneficial owners are Independent Third Parties.

The Placing Shares will be placed to not less than six Placees (who will be independent individual, corporate and/or institutional investors) and their ultimate beneficial owners will be Independent Third Parties. It is expected that no Placee will become a substantial Shareholder (as such term is defined in the GEM Listing Rules) immediately following completion of the Placing.

Up to 260,000,000 new Shares, to be placed by the Placing Agent on a best effort basis. Assuming the Placing Shares are fully placed, the Placing Shares represents approximately 82.03% of the entire issued share capital of the Company of 316,938,145 Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 45.07% of the Company’s entire issued share capital as enlarged by the Placing. The nominal value of the Placing Shares is HK$13,000,000.00.

The Placing Shares will be allotted and issued under the Specific Mandate.

Placing Price:

HK$0.115 per Placing Share. The Placing Price was agreed after arm’s length negotiations between the Company and the Placing Agent, with reference to, among other things, the recent trading price of the Shares on GEM. The Placing Price represents:

  • (a) a discount of approximately 17.86% to the closing price of HK$0.14 per Share as quoted on the GEM on 6 July 2012, being the date of the Placing Agreement;

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (b) a discount of approximately 18.32% to the average closing price of approximately HK$0.1408 per Share as quoted on the GEM for the last 5 full trading days of the Shares immediately before 6 July 2012 being the date of the Placing Agreement; and

  • (c) a discount of approximately 46.76% to the closing price of HK$0.216 per Share as quoted on the GEM on the Latest Practicable Date.

The Board considers that the Placing Price is fair and reasonable.

The Company will bear the costs and expenses in connection with the Placing and the net proceeds from the Placing is estimated to be approximately HK$28.75 million (assuming the Placing Shares are fully placed). As a result, the net price per Placing Share will be approximately HK$0.1106.

Placing Commission:

The Placing Agent will receive a placing commission of 3% on the gross proceeds of the Placing. The placing commission was negotiated on an arm’s length basis between the Company and the Placing Agent and determined with reference to, amongst other things, the market rate.

  • The Directors consider that the placing commission is fair and reasonable based on the current market conditions.

Ranking of Placing Shares:

  • The Placing Shares, when issued and fully paid, will rank pari passu among themselves and with Shares in issue at the time of issue an allotment of the Placing Shares.

Conditions to the Placing:

The Placing is conditional upon the following conditions:

  • (i) the passing of a resolution by the Shareholders at the general meeting of the Company to approve the Placing Agreement and issue of the Placing Shares; and

  • (ii) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange agreeing to grant a listing of, and permission to deal in, the Placing Shares.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

If the above conditions are not fulfilled on or before 31 December 2012 (or such other time and date as the Placing Agent and the Company shall agree in writing), all rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties under the Placing Agreement shall cease and determine and neither parties shall have any claim against the others save for any antecedent breach.

Application will be made to the Stock Exchange for approval for the listing of and permission to deal in the Placing Shares.

Completion of the Placing:

Completion shall take place on the third business days following satisfaction of all the conditions set out above.

Termination:

The Placing Agent may terminate the Placing Agreement prior to completion of the Placing Agreement if

  • (i) any event occurring or matter arising on or after the date of the Placing Agreement and prior to the completion date which if it had occurred or arisen before the date of the Placing Agreement would have rendered any of the undertakings, warranties and representations contained in the Placing Agreement untrue or incorrect and such would have an adverse impact or effect on the Placing; or

  • (ii) there develops, occurs or comes into force: or

  • (a) any new law or regulation or any change in existing laws or regulations or the interpretation thereof which may in the opinion of the Placing Agent and in its reasonable opinion may materially and adversely affect the business or financial condition or prospects of the Group as a whole; or

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (b) any local, regional, national or international event or change (whether or not permanent or forming part of a series of events or changes occurring or continuing, on and/or after the date hereof) of a political, military, economic or other nature (whether or not ejusdem generis with the foregoing) which, in the reasonable opinion of the Placing Agent and in its reasonable discretion will, or may be expected to, have a material adverse effect on the Placing; or

  • (c) any significant change (whether or not permanent) in local, regional, national or international market conditions (or in conditions affecting a sector of the market) which in the reasonable opinion of the Placing Agent and in its reasonable discretion has or may have a material adverse effect on the Placing; or

  • (iii) there is any adverse change in the business or in the financial or trading position of the Group taken as a whole which being unaware of by the Placing Agent and in the reasonable opinion of the Placing Agent and in its reasonable discretion is material in the context of the Placing.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE PLACING

As disclosed in the Company’s announcement dated 4 July 2012, the Company is negotiating for the possible acquisition of a majority equity interest in the Target Group engaging in selling air tickets and travel products online (the “ Potential Acquisition ”). The Directors consider that the Placing represents a good opportunity to broaden the shareholders base and capital base of the Company and to raise capital for the Company to finance the Potential Acquisition and for its business operation. The Directors consider the terms of the Placing Agreement to be fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Directors consider that the Company is in growth stage and revealed that the Company has been searching for investment opportunities in order to enhance shareholders’ value. However, it has encountered difficulties in competing with other sizeable local and overseas institutions when potential investment opportunities were identified but eventually failed to conclude a contract as a result of the Company’s insufficient financial resources. As such, the Directors are of the view that improving the financial strength of the Company is more practical and efficient in terms of economies of scale when making investments. The Specific Mandate provides the Board with the source of finance when discussing with the vendor in the Potential Acquisition. Therefore, the Directors are of the view that the

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

proposed issuance of new Shares under the Specific Mandate is fair and reasonable and is in the interests of the Shareholders and the Company as a whole. As stated in the annual report for year ended 31 March 2012, the Company registered a loss attributable to Shareholders of the Company of approximately HK$22.8 million. The Company raised a total of approximately HK$15.5 million by placing of unlisted warrants and convertible notes in January 2012 and April 2012 respectively and the amount has largely been used up as general working capital.

The Directors have considered the feasibility of other fund raising methods, including the issuance of new Shares pursuant to a general mandate or by refreshment of the general mandate. However, given that the issued share capital of the Company is HK$15,846,907.25 comprising 316,938,145 Shares and the rather small size of the Company’s capital base, the Directors are of the view that any new fund to be raised via a general mandate or refreshment of the general mandate would not be too meaningful.

The Directors also considered rights issue or open offer of Shares to all Shareholders, and have approached securities firms for the feasibility. Nevertheless, in light of (i) the Euro zone financial crisis; and (ii) the current volatile market conditions, the Company had not successfully secured an underwriter to commit to underwrite a rights issue or open offer of Shares on pro-rata basis to all the Shareholders. The Directors therefore contemplate the Specific Mandate which is considered by the Directors to be a preferred channel of financing.

THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS

The net proceeds of approximately HK$28.75 million from the Placing will be used as to (i) no more than HK$15 million for financing the Potential Acquisition, particularly being a refundable deposit, set out in the Company’s announcement dated 4 July 2012, and (ii) the balance of approximately HK$13.75 million for general working capital for both existing and prospective business operations of the Group and for maintaining the liquidity of the Group in the course of the Group’s business expansion and development, of which approximately HK$8 million will be used for general overheads and expenses, approximately HK$4 million for research and development and approximately HK$1.75 million for professional fees. The Company will bear all costs and expenses of approximately HK$1.15 million in connection with the Placing.

The Directors have obtained certain verbal and written background information on the Target Group in the Potential Acquisition but have yet to conduct thorough due diligence. As at the Latest Practicable Date, no formal agreement has been entered into between the parties and these discussions are still in progress. The Directors, in response to the request from the vendor of the Target Group in the Potential Acquisition, expect to expedite the discussion of a sale and purchase agreement and the due diligence process as and when financial resources are secured.

The Company has been exploring various business opportunities for diversifying and expanding the business scope of the Group. Apart from the Potential Acquisition, the Company has identified two other possible investment targets (collectively referred to as the “ Possible Targets ”), namely (i) possible acquisition of a controlling interest in a gold mine

– 8 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

located in the PRC by the Company (details were set out in the announcements of the Company dated 20 April 2011, 17 May 2011, 17 October 2011, 30 December 2011 and 29 June 2012); and (ii) possible acquisition of an investment target which will enter into co-operation agreement with a PRC insurance brokerage company (details were set out in the announcements of the Company dated 30 December 2010, 6 May 2011, 30 June 2011, 30 December 2011, 6 March 2012, 31 May 2012 and 31 July 2012). No formal agreements have been entered into for the acquisition of the Possible Targets and the terms of the acquisition of the Possible Targets have yet been finalized.

If the Potential Acquisition is not materialized, the net proceeds from the Placing which is intended for financing the Potential Acquisition will then be reserved for the Group’s future investments and/or acquisitions for the purpose of enhancing the Group’s growth, should such opportunities arise, including but not limited to the Possible Targets. Save for the Potential Acquisition and the Possible Targets, no specific investment targets have been identified by the Group as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Shareholders and potential investors should note that even if the Specific Mandate is granted to the Board and that the Placing is completed, the Potential Acquisition, which currently is in the stage of discussion, may not be consummated. Completion of the Potential Acquisition is subject to certain conditions including satisfactory due diligence and shareholders’ approval where necessary. There is also no assurance that the Directors can eventually complete the Potential Acquisition, failing which, apart from the Possible Targets, the Company will continue to look for other potential investment opportunities. The Company will make timely disclosure in form of announcement to keep the Shareholders informed of further development in relation to the Potential Acquisition.

As set out in the section headed “Equity Fund Raising Activities in the Past Twelve Months”, in the past twelve months, the Company has raised approximately HK$17.84 million of which approximately HK$14.64 million has been applied as general working capital and with approximately HK$3.2 million remained unutilized. The Group has been exploring various business opportunities for diversifying and expanding its business scope for enhancing its earnings and maximizing its shareholders’ value. In 2011, the Group has successfully completed two acquisitions (the “ 2011 Acquisitions ”), one of the acquisitions was in line with the Group’s principal business activities in systems development and one of the acquisitions represented an expansion of the Group’s business activities into the PRC insurance market which constituted a new business segment of the Group. Following completion of the 2011 Acquisitions, it has resulted in an enlarged business portfolio of the Group. As only approximately HK$3.2 million from fund raising exercises in the past twelve months remained unutilized, in view of (i) enhancement of the Group’s business portfolio following completion of the 2011 Acquisitions; and (ii) the Group’s strategy to continue to expand its business operations should suitable opportunities arise, the Directors consider that it will be beneficial to provide additional working capital to support the development of the Group’s existing and prospective business operations, including but not limited to the Potential Acquisition and the Possible Targets, at an enlarged scale for supporting salary expenses, rental expenses, professional fees and other general administrative expenses.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

INFORMATION OF THE TARGET GROUP

The Target Group is principally engaged in selling air tickets, hotel reservation and travel products online in the PRC. The Target Group makes use of an advanced online platform and a telephone hotline system to create an efficient and comprehensive e-commerce network for suppliers, agents and customers for travel services. In view of the steady increase in domestic civil aviation passenger traffic and tourism expenditures in the PRC in recent years, the Company is of the view that the prospects of the Target Group will be promising.

Based on the current negotiations and information from the vendor of the Potential Acquisition, it is expected that the Potential Acquisition, if materializes, may constitute a major transaction or a very substantial acquisition for the Company under the GEM Listing Rules.

EFFECT OF THE PLACING ON SHAREHOLDING

DILUTION EFFECT ON SHAREHOLDERS

The Directors noted the potential dilution effect of the Specific Mandate to the Shareholders. However, taking into account that (i) the capital base of the Group will be enhanced so that the Company can be in a more advantageous position to discuss or even conclude the Potential Acquisition; and (ii) the cash position of the Group will be improved

– 10 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

upon completion of the Specific Mandate, the Directors consider that Shareholders’ value will be improved in a longer time spectrum and thus the dilution effect to the Shareholders is acceptable and commercially justifiable.
