LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The following is a summary of the audited consolidated results of the Wing On Travel Group for the two financial years ended 31 December 2005 and 2006 extracted from the 2006 annual report of Wing On Travel:

(Loss) profit before taxation Taxation credit (Loss) profit for the year	For the financial year ended 31 December 2006 2005 HK$’000 HK$’000 (81,295 ) 30,126 1,891 2,108 (79,404 ) 32,234	For the financial year ended 31 December 2006 2005 HK$’000 HK$’000 (81,295 ) 30,126 1,891 2,108 (79,404 ) 32,234

REASONS FOR THE ACQUISITIONS

Riding on the rapid economic growth and development in the PRC and Macau, the Company is confident about the prospects of the PRC and Macau markets as a whole and is positive on the long term potential of the property markets in these areas. Given the strong presence of the ITC Properties Group in the PRC and Macau, the Company is of the view that investment in ITC Properties enables the Group to share the benefit from the growth in property markets in the PRC and Macau. In addition, the ITC Properties Acquisition allows the Group to achieve a more diversified and balanced investment portfolio. If suitable opportunity arises, the Group may consider acquiring more ITC Properties Shares. If any subsequent acquisition(s) of ITC Properties Shares by the Group leads to a possible major transaction for the Company, the Company will comply with the applicable Listing Rules. The Directors believe that the ITC Properties Acquisition is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Wing On Travel Group is one of the leading listed travel groups in Hong Kong and has a hotel chain in Hong Kong and the PRC. In view of the strong background and resources of the Wing On Travel Group and strong growth in the tourism in the PRC, the Company is confident on the travel and hotel businesses in the PRC. For these reasons, the Company is of the view that investment in Wing On Travel will enable the Group to share the benefit from the growth in tourism markets in the PRC. In addition, the Wing On Travel Acquisition allows the Group to achieve a more diversified and balanced investment portfolio. If suitable opportunity arises, the Group may consider acquiring more Wing On Travel Shares. If any subsequent acquisition(s) of Wing On Travel Shares by the Group leads to a possible major transaction for the Company, the Company will comply with the applicable Listing Rules. The Directors believe that the Wing On Travel Acquisition is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Company, through its then non-wholly owned subsidiary Hanny, was interested in 124,334,481 Wing On Travel Shares immediately before the Wing On Travel Acquisition, representing approximately 20.4% of the then issued share capital of Wing On Travel, hence interest of the Group in Wing On Travel was equity accounted as an associated company. Hanny ceased to be a subsidiary of the Company on 18 May 2007.

The prices of the Acquisitions were determined with reference to the respective market prices of ITC Properties Shares and Wing On Travel Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange during the ITC Properties Relevant Period and the Wing On Travel Relevant Period.

For each of the Group’s interests in ITC Properties and Wing On Travel, given that the direct interest of the Group and the indirect interest through Hanny amounted to over 20% of the respective issued share capitals with no other shareholders of the companies holding significant interests relative to the combined shareholding interests held by the Group and Hanny, and that there are concurrent directors of the Group with ITC Properties and Wing On Travel, the Board considers that the Group has significant influence on ITC Properties and Wing

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

On Travel. Accordingly, the interests of the Group in ITC Properties and Wing On Travel will be accounted for as associated companies in the Group’s accounts pursuant to Hong Kong Accounting Standard 28. As such, after discussion with the Company’s auditors, the Group’s interests in ITC Properties and Wing On Travel will be equity accounted for, with discount on acquisitions, if any, and share of profit or loss of the associated companies to be recognised in the income statement of the Group. As disclosed above under the paragraph headed “The Acquisitions”, the acquisitions of ITC Properties Shares and Wing On Travel Shares during the ITC Properties Relevant Period and the Wing On Travel Relevant Period were made at discounts of approximately 29.2% and 72.3%, respectively, to their unaudited consolidated net asset values as at their respective last reporting dates. Accordingly, an accounting gain may be reported in the results of the Group for the acquisitions of ITC Properties Shares and Wing On Travel Shares, if such discounts to the respective net asset values exist at the time of the acquisitions by the Group.

GENERAL

As the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the aggregation of various acquisitions of ITC Properties Shares calculated up to 21 December 2007 exceeded 5% but were less than 25%, the last acquisition of ITC Properties Shares on 21 December 2007 (being the last day of the ITC Properties Relevant Period) triggered a discloseable transaction for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

As the applicable percentage ratios in respect of the aggregation of various acquisitions of Wing On Travel Shares calculated up to 21 December 2007 exceeded 5% but were less than 25%, the last acquisition of Wing On Travel Shares on 21 December 2007 (being the last day of the Wing On Travel Relevant Period) triggered a discloseable transaction for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

Your attention is drawn to the additional information set out in the appendix to this circular.

Yours faithfully, On behalf of the Board of ITC Corporation Limited Dr. Chan Kwok Keung, Charles Chairman
