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 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 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.

PROPOSED PLACING OF UNLISTED WARRANTS

Placing Agreement

1. Date

18 January 2012

2. Issuer

The Company

3. Placing Agent and basis of placing

Grand Vinco Capital Limited has been appointed to act, on a best-effort basis, as placing agent of the Company for the Placing. The Placing Agent will receive a placing commission of HK$100,000, which is arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between the parties to the Placing Agreement. The Directors are of the view that the placing commission is fair and reasonable based on the current market conditions and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable inquiries, the Placing Agent and its ultimate beneficial owners are Independent Third Parties.

4. The Warrants

Number of Warrants and A total number of up to 57,380,000 Warrants underlying Shares: conferring the right to subscribe for up to HK$10,902,200 in aggregate for Shares (i.e. up to 57,380,000 Shares).

Exercise of the subscription rights of the 57,380,000 Warrants in full will require the Company to allot and issue 57,380,000 Shares. Such Shares represent (i) approximately 18.10% of the existing issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date; and (ii) approximately 15.33% of the existing issued share capital of the Company as enlarged by the allotment and issue of Shares upon the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Warrants in full assuming there will not be any change in the issued share capital of the Company prior to such allotment and issue.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Status:

The Warrants will be constituted by way of deed poll to be executed by the Company. The Warrants will rank pari passu in all respects among themselves.

Issue price:

HK$0.02 per Warrant payable in cash.

Subscription price and right:

Each Warrant will carry the right to subscribe for one Share at an initial subscription price of HK$0.19 per Share, subject to adjustment upon occurrence of certain events, including:

  • (ii) an issue (other than in lieu of a cash dividend) by the Company of Shares credited as fully paid by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves (including any share premium account or capital redemption reserve fund);

  • (iv) an offer or grant being made by the Company to the Shareholders by way of rights or of options or warrants to subscribe for new Shares at a price which is less than 80% of the market price (calculation as provided in the Instrument);

  • (v) an issue wholly for cash being made by the Company or any other company of securities convertible into or exchangeable for or carrying rights of subscription for new Shares, if in any case the total effective consideration per Share is less than 80% of the market price (calculation as provided in the Instrument), or the terms of any such issue being altered so that the said total effective consideration is less than 80% of the market price;

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (vi) an issue being made by the Company wholly for cash of Shares (other than pursuant to any employee share option scheme) at a price less than 80% of the market price (calculation as provided in the Instrument); and

  • (vii) a cancellation of any Shares repurchased by the Company (other than on the Stock Exchange or any stock exchange recognised for such purpose) in circumstances where the Directors consider that it may be appropriate to make an adjustment to the subscription price.

Any adjustment to the subscription price shall be certified either (at the option of the Company) by the auditors or by an approved merchant bank.

Lot size and minimum subscription:

Issued in board lot of HK$1,900 of subscription rights of the Warrants or its integral multiples and the minimum amount of Warrants required to be subscribed for by any one Placee shall be one board lot of Warrants.

The subscription rights attaching to the Warrants may be exercised at any time from the date of issue of the Warrants until 4:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) on the day falling on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the date of issue of the Warrants (or, if such day is not a business day, the business day immediately preceding such day).

Rights of Shares on exercise of Warrants:

The Shares that fall to be issued upon the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Warrants will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares in issue on the exercise date except that they will not be entitled to any rights or entitlement to dividends or other rights or distributions the record date for which precedes the exercise date.

Transferability:

The Warrants can be freely transferred provided that any transfer of the Warrants to any connected person shall be subject to the requirements that the Stock Exchange may impose from time to time.

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Rights upon liquidation:

  • (a) If an effective resolution is passed for the voluntary winding up of the Company and if such winding up is for the purpose of reconstruction or amalgamation pursuant to a scheme of arrangement to which the holders of the Warrant (or their nominee) will be a party or in conjunction with which a proposal is made to the holders of the Warrants and is approved by a special resolution passed by such holders, the terms of such scheme of arrangement or (as the case may be) proposal will be binding on all of them.

  • (b) In the event a notice is given by the Company to the Shareholders to convene a shareholders’ meeting for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, approving a resolution to voluntarily wind-up the Company during the subscription period, the Company shall give notice thereof to each holder of Warrants and, thereupon every such holder shall be entitled to, at any time up to close of business on the second business day before such general meeting, by irrevocable surrender of his Warrant certificate(s) to the Company with the subscription form(s) duly completed, together with payment of the subscription price or the relative portion thereof, exercise the subscription rights represented by such Warrant certificate to the extent specified in the subscription form(s) and the Company shall as soon as possible and in any event no later than the day immediately prior to the date of the proposed shareholders’ meeting allot such number of Shares to the holders of Warrants which fall to be issued pursuant to the exercise of the subscription rights represented by such Warrants.

Call:

If at any time Warrants which have not been exercised carry rights to subscribe for Shares are equal to or less than HK$1,090,220, the Company may, on giving not less than three months’ notice, require the holder(s) of the Warrant(s) either to exercise their subscription rights or to allow them to lapse. On expiry of such notice, all unexercised Warrant(s) will be automatically cancelled.

– 8 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Basis of pricing of the Warrants

The issue price is HK$0.02 per Warrant.

The aggregate of the issue price of HK$0.02 per Warrant and the initial subscription price of HK$0.19 per Warrant is HK$0.21. This represents (i) a discount of about 4.55% over the closing price of HK$0.22 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on 18 January 2012, being the date of the Placing Agreement; (ii) a premium of about 10.53% over the average closing price of HK$0.19 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five trading days up to the trading day immediately prior to the date of the Placing Agreement and (iii) a discount of 13.22% to the closing price of the Shares on the Latest Practicable Date of HK$0.242.

The initial subscription price and the aggregate of it with the issue price were determined with reference to the prevailing market price of the Shares and were negotiated on an arm’s length basis between the Company and the Placing Agent. The Directors consider that the terms of the Placing are fair and reasonable based on the current market conditions and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Use of proceeds

The principal activities of the Group are the provision of systems development including maintenance and installation as well as consulting service, provision of professional services including information technology engineering and technical support services and licensing of information management systems targeted at insurance intermediaries.

Assuming that all of the 57,380,000 Warrants are placed with Placee(s) by the Company and based on the estimated expenses of approximately HK$0.4 million for the Placing, the gross proceeds and the net proceeds derived from the issue of the Warrants, which are estimated to HK$1.15 million and approximately HK$0.75 million, are intended to be used by the Company as general working capital.

The Company will receive additional approximately HK$10.9 million gross proceeds upon exercise in full of the subscription rights to be attached to the Warrants (assuming that 57,380,000 Warrants have been issued by the Company). The Company intends to use such proceeds as general working capital of the Group.

The net price of each Share to be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants, taking into account of the issue price of HK$0.02 per Warrant after deducting the expenses and based on the full exercise of the Warrants, will be approximately HK$0.20.

Reasons for the Placing

The Directors consider that the Placing is an appropriate means of raising additional working capital for the Company because it will not have an immediate dilutive effect on the shareholding of the existing Shareholders. In addition, apart from the net proceeds that will be raised immediately upon the Placing, the Company will be provided with additional working capital upon the exercise of the subscription rights to be attached to the Warrants.

– 9 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Independence of Placees

The Placing Agent will place the Warrants with not less than six Placees who and whose ultimate beneficial owners will be Independent Third Parties.

Mandate to allot and issue the Shares

The Warrants and the new Shares to be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants will be issued by the Company under the Specific Mandate to be sought from the Shareholders at the EGM.

Application for listing

No application will be made for the listing of the Warrants. Application will be made to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Warrants.

The Company confirmed that the Placing complies with Rules 21.02(1) and (2) of the GEM Listing Rules. The Company will make further announcement(s) upon completion of the Placing.

Conditions of the Placing and completion

Completion of the Placing is conditional upon:

  • (i) the passing of the necessary resolution by the Shareholders to approve the allotment and issue of the Shares falling to be issued upon the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Warrants at the EGM;

  • (ii) the Stock Exchange granting approval of the issue of the Warrants (if required) and granting or agreeing to grant the listing of, and permission to deal in, all the Shares falling to be issued on the exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Warrants either unconditionally or subject to conditions to which the Placing Agent (acting reasonably) accepts; and

  • (iii) the Company having received the gross proceeds of Placing in clear funds.

If any of the above conditions is not fulfilled by 5:00 p.m. on 31 March 2012 (Hong Kong time) (or such later time or date as the Company and the Placing Agent may agree), the Placing Agreement will terminate and the Placing will not proceed.

The Warrants will be created and issued to the Placees on the third business day (or such other day as may be agreed between the Company and the Placing Agent) after the day on which the Placing Agent is notified by the Company about the fulfillment of the above conditions.
