To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

(1) SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE HK$154 MILLION 2013 PGI BONDS; (2) PROPOSED SPECIAL MANDATE TO ALLOT AND ISSUE UP TO 1,540 MILLION SHARES IN RELATION TO THE 2013 PGI BONDS; AND

(3) NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the Announcement in which the Company announced that, among other matters, on 30 December 2011 the Company entered into the Second PGI Amendment Agreement with PGI and also executed the Second PGI Supplemental Deed in relation to the amendments to be made on the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions.

— 6 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information relating to (i) the Second PGI Amendment Agreement, the Second PGI Supplemental Deed and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the proposed Special Mandate; and (iii) the notice convening the SGM.

BACKGROUND

The CB Subscription Agreements were made by the Company with PGI and CSOP respectively, who agreed to subscribe for the 2013 PGI Bonds and the 2013 CSOP Bonds respectively. Completion of such subscription agreements took place on 24 May 2010, and the 2013 Bonds in the aggregate principal amounts of HK$192.5 million were issued to the Bondholders.

Under the 2013 Bonds, a Bondholder is entitled (“Early Redemption Right”) to request for an early redemption of the entirety or any part of the principal amount of the 2013 Bonds by serving a notice of redemption in writing to the Company if an event of default occurs. One of the events of default as provided under the Original Bond Conditions is that the average 30 consecutive trading days’ closing price per Share is less than 70% of the Original Conversion Price. For the reasons as stated in the Company’s announcement dated 29 June 2011, the Original Conversion Price (of HK$0.55 per Conversion Share) under the Original PGI Bond Conditions in respect of the 2013 PGI Bonds was agreed to be changed to the Current Conversion Price at HK$0.30 per Conversion Share. The corresponding event of default as mentioned above has been changed under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions to the effect that the average 30 consecutive trading days’ closing price per Share is less than 70% of the Current Conversion Price (“Market Price Pegged EoD”).

The average 30 consecutive trading days’ closing price per Share as at 28 September 2011 was less than 70% of the Current Conversion Price (“Relevant Event”). The Company was therefore in discussion with PGI as to whether, upon the Relevant Event arising, it will exercise their rights to request for an early redemption of the 2013 PGI Bonds.

On 30 December 2011, PGI entered into the Second PGI Amendment Agreement pursuant to which it agreed on a conditional basis to refrain from exercising the Early Redemption Right for the period between 28 September 2011 and 29 February 2012, and sanctioned the modifications of the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions as contemplated under the Second PGI Supplemental Deed in such form as annexed to the Second PGI Amendment Agreement. On the same date, the Company also executed the Second PGI Supplemental Deed. If the Second PGI Supplemental Deed becomes effective, the said Market Price Pegged EoD provision concerning under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions will be removed.

— 7 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Second PGI Supplemental Deed will be effective upon, among others, having obtained the Shareholders’ approval of the Second PGI Amendment Agreement, the Second PGI Supplemental Deed and the transactions contemplated thereunder at the SGM. Under the Second PGI Supplemental Deed, the Current Conversion Price (being HK$0.30 per Conversion Share) will be changed to the New Conversion Price of HK$0.22 per Conversion Share, subject to adjustments as provided under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions in respect of the 2013 PGI Bonds, which details will be further explained below.

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, PGI and its ultimate beneficial owners is an independent third party and does not hold any position with the Company or its connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules), except that it entered into the agreement for the subscription of the 2013 PGI Bonds (and the related supplemented agreements thereto) and is holder of the 2013 PGI Bonds.

THE NEW PGI BOND CONDITIONS

Under the Second PGI Supplemental Deed, the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions will be amended in the following respects:

  • (a) Change in conversion price: the Current Conversion Price (being HK$0.30 per Conversion Share) is changed to HK$0.22 per Conversion Share, subject to adjustments as provided under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions.

  • (b) Deletion of the Market Price Pegged EoD: the deletion of the event that “if, at any time, the average 30 consecutive trading days’ closing price per Share is less than 70 per cent. of the Conversion Price” from one of the events of default of the 2013 PGI Bonds.

  • (c) Reset of conversion price: where the average closing price per Share (“Relevant Average Price”) for the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending (and inclusive of) 31 December 2012 is less than the then New Conversion Price (i.e. HK$0.22 per Share or such other amount as may be adjusted in accordance with the other conditions of the 2013 PGI Bonds), with effect from 31 December 2012, the New Conversion Price shall be adjusted to such amount (i.e. the Reset Conversion Price) as is equal to the Relevant Average Price. If however the Relevant Average Price is equal to or more than the then prevailing New Conversion Price, the above adjustment shall not be made.

— 8 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Under Bermuda Law, a company may not issue shares for a consideration price less than the par value of such shares. Under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions, where the adjustment would result in the Conversion Price being reduced so that on Conversion Shares shall fall to be issued at a discount to their nominal value, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the nominal value of one Share.

(d) Redemption of 2013 PGI Bonds in the principal amount of not more than HK$50 million on or before 30 June 2012: the Bondholder may (at its sole option) request, by serving a redemption notice, requiring the Company to redeem the 2013 PGI Bonds in the aggregate principal amounts not more than HK$50 million by no later than 30 June 2012. The redemption right of the Bondholder under this condition shall be in addition to the redemption right under the condition stated in paragraph (f) below. Should the Bondholder decide to exercise the redemption right under this condition, the redemption threshold under the condition stated in paragraph (f) below shall be adjusted upward. The amount payable by the Company for redeeming the relevant 2013 PGI Bonds shall be calculated in accordance with the formula as set out in the condition stated in paragraph (f) below. The Company shall, upon giving of a redemption notice under this condition by the Bondholder, cause the relevant 2013 PGI Bonds to be redeemed as soon as practicable and in any event no later than 30 June 2012.

(e) Redemption of 2013 PGI Bonds upon the non-issuance of the business licence of an acquisition target company: in the event that the business licence of Shanxi Fengxi has not been issued on or before 31 December 2012, the Bondholder shall, at any time on or after 1 January 2013, have the right at such holder’s option to require the Company to repurchase all (or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is HK$1,100,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of such holder’s Bonds. Shanxi Fengxi is a company which is in the process of being established in the PRC and part of whose registered capital is the subject matter of a priority purchase right which was agreed to be given by Golden Rock (being one of the shareholders of Shanxi Fengxi) to the Company under the non-binding memorandum of understanding dated 22 August 2010 (as supplemented and amended from time to time) and as mentioned in the Company’s announcement (among other announcements) dated 23 August 2010.

In the event of redemption of any certificate constituting the 2013 PGI Bonds held by a Bondholder under this condition, the Company shall, in addition to the interest and principal amount of the 2013 PGI Bonds, pay such amount in Hong Kong dollars to the Bondholder so that the total amount to be paid to the Bondholder in respect of the relevant redemption amount shall be equal to a rate of return of 18 per cent. per annum (inclusive of the interest payment made) as at the date of such payment.

— 9 —

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (f) Adjustment to the redemption price formula regarding early redemption request given by the Bondholder: under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions, at any time during the three years commencing from (and including) the issue date of the 2013 PGI Bonds and including the Maturity Date, a holder of the 2013 PGI Bonds shall be entitled to serve a redemption notice, requiring the Company to redeem (which redemption shall take place within 90 days of the redemption notice) not more than one third (1/3) of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 PGI Bonds such that the amount payable by the Company for redeeming the relevant Bonds shall be calculated in accordance with a prescribed formula. The relevant figures as contained in such formula are proposed to be changed as follows:

Redemption price = {Face value of the principal amount of the relevant 2013 PGI Bonds} ÷ (0.22) × (0.204)

  • (g) Change in interest rate: the interest rate of the 2013 PGI Bonds is changed from 8 per cent. per annum to 12 per cent. per annum.

  • (h) Denomination of the 2013 PGI Bonds: any conversion shall be made in amounts of not less than a whole multiple of HK$1.1 million (instead of HK$1.2 million as provided under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions) and no fraction of a Share shall be issued on conversion.

  • (i) Negative covenant regarding sale or charging of a Hong Kong property held by the Group: the Company will covenant that so long as any 2013 PGI Bonds remains outstanding, the Company shall procure that without the prior consent being given by the Bondholders by way of the passing of an ordinary resolution at a meeting of Bondholders, Ocean Signal Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which is the beneficial owner and registered holder of the HK Property) will not create or permit to subsist, any mortgage, charge, pledge, lien or other security interest (“Security”) upon the whole or any part of HK Property, unless the creation of the Security over HK Property is for the sole purpose of renewing a loan or obtaining a new financing with any financial institution with the aggregate principal amount secured thereby not exceeding HK$78,000,000.

  • (j) Giving of additional security by Mr. Wu Jixian (“Mr. Wu”): one of the collaterals currently given as security to the 2013 PGI Bonds is the pledge by Mr. Wu (a nonexecutive Director and a substantial Shareholder) of certain convertible zero coupon bonds due 2013 issued by the Company and having a total aggregate outstanding principal amounts of not less than HK$462 million (“Old Bond Pledge”). On top of the Old Bond Pledge, it is proposed that Mr. Wu shall give an additional pledge of the zero coupon Bonds due 2013 with a principal amount of HK$120 million (“New Bond Pledge”).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Second PGI Supplemental Deed is supplemental to the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions and, save as expressly amended in the manner as mentioned above, all the provisions of the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions shall remain in full force and effect. Shareholders and other investors or potential investors are advised to refer to the annexure to this circular and the Company’s announcements dated 6 May 2010 and 29 June 2011 respectively for a summary of the principal terms of the Original Bond Conditions and the amendments thereto by the First PGI Supplemental Deed.

The New Conversion Price represents (i) a premium of approximately 38.36% over the closing price of HK$0.159 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Trading Day; (ii) a premium of approximately 37.50% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.16 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last five trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day; (iii) a premium of approximately 30.18% over the average closing price of approximately HK$0.169 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange for the last 10 trading days up to and including the Last Trading Day; and (iv) a premium of approximately 58.27% over the closing price of HK$0.139 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Latest Practicable Date.

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE SECOND PGI SUPPLEMENTAL DEED

The Second PGI Supplemental Deed shall become effective upon and only upon (i) the Shareholders’ approval at the SGM of the Second PGI Amendment Agreement, the Second PGI Supplemental Deed and the transactions contemplated thereunder being obtained, (ii) the due execution of the New Bond Pledge and (iii) the Stock Exchange giving its approval for the listing of and permission to deal in the Conversion Shares on the Stock Exchange which may be issued upon conversion of the 2013 PGI Bonds at the New Conversion Price (subject to reset).

If the above conditions precedent are not fulfilled on or before 29 February 2012, the Company is required to give immediate notice in writing to PGI, and the agreement by PGI to refrain from exercising the Early Redemption Right will forthwith cease and terminate.

For the avoidance of doubt, upon the above conditions precedent being fulfilled, PGI shall no longer be entitled to exercise the Early Redemption Right arising from or in connection with (i) the Relevant Event or (ii) the average closing price being below 70% of the Original Conversion Price at any time during the period from 28 September 2011 and up to the date of fulfillment of the above conditions.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS FOR ENTERING INTO THE SECOND PGI AMENDMENT AGREEMENT AND THE SECOND PGI SUPPLEMENTAL DEED

The Second PGI Supplemental Deed is made in consideration of PGI agreeing to refrain from exercising the Early Redemption Right. There will not be any new proceeds to be raised from the Second PGI Supplemental Deed.

If the Second PGI Supplemental Deed is not entered into, PGI will be entitled, by notice, to exercise the Early Redemption Right. Had such request been made, the Company would have been required to repay the aggregate principal amounts in the sum of HK$154 million, plus outstanding interest accrued thereon and such additional amount which is equal to the difference of (x) 25% per annum multiplied by the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 PGI Bonds, and (y) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 PGI Bonds and the interest accrued thereon. If the conditions precedent to the Second PGI Supplemental Deed are not fulfilled on or before 29 February 2012 and thus the Second PGI Supplemental Deed does not become effective, assuming that PGI will then exercise the Early Redemption Right on 29 February 2012, the total amount of repayment and payment of the 2013 PGI Bonds comprising the principal and the interest accrued thereon up to 31 May 2012 (being the date not later than 90 days from the date of the redemption notice as required under the Consolidated PGI Bond Conditions) will be approximately HK$224 million, amongst which the interest payable is approximately HK$70 million. In such case, considering the amount of current available working capital of the Company, the Company would have to resort to other financing methods, such as bank loans but at an expectedly high interest rate, in order to settle the repayment and payment of the principal and the interest of the 2013 PGI Bonds. The mandatory repayment and payment of the above amounts would have affected the cashflow and financial position of the Group, as well as adversely affect the business operations of the Group.

Accordingly, the Directors believe that it is in the Company’s interest to execute the Second PGI Supplemental Deed.

Taking into account the previous consultation made by the Company with professional valuer and professional accountants in connection with the First PGI Supplemental Deed (see the Company’s announcement dated 26 August 2011 on the Group’s interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2011), the Company is of the preliminary view that the execution of the Second PGI Supplemental Deed will not have any material impact on the financial statements of the Group. If there is any change in such position, the Company will make an announcement in due course, or otherwise the Company will make an appropriate disclosure in its annual report for the year ended 31 December 2011.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

IMPACT ON THE SHAREHOLDING STRUCTURE OF THE COMPANY AS A RESULT OF THE CONVERSION OF THE 2013 PGI BONDS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 4,522,926,292 Shares in issue. In addition, there were certain outstanding share options, which were held by directors and/or employees of the Group, upon exercise thereof a total of 47,500,000 Shares may be issued, which options were granted pursuant to the share option schemes of the Company, which is subject to Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules. Other than the WJX Convertible Bonds and the share options granted under the share option scheme of the Company which is subject to Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules, there were no outstanding convertible securities of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date.

In November 2011, all the 2013 Bonds held by CSOP were redeemed by the Company.

If the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds are exercised in full at the New Conversion Price (assuming no occurrence of any event upon which the New Conversion Price shall be adjusted), PGI will become interested in 700 million Shares by the acquisition of 700 million Conversion Shares through the exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds, representing about 13.40% of the Company’s issued share capital as enlarged by the issue of relevant number of the Conversion Shares. Detailed provisions to adjustment of the Conversion Price are set out in Company’s announcements dated 6 May 2010 and 29 June 2011, in addition to the amendment on the relevant condition as set out in paragraph (d) of the section headed “The New PGI Bond Conditions” above.

The following table summarises (i) the Company’s existing shareholding structure, (ii) the shareholding structure assuming and immediately after issue of Shares to PGI pursuant to its exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds in full (based on the existing shareholding structure) at the New Conversion Price, and (iii) the shareholding structure assuming and immediately after issue of Shares to PGI pursuant to its exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds in full (based on the existing shareholding structure) at the New Conversion Price of HK$0.22 per Conversion Share and the issue of Shares to Mr. Wu pursuant to his exercise of the conversion rights attached to the WJX Convertible Bonds in full.

Assuming that the par value of each Share will remain to be HK$0.10 up to 31 December 2012 and that the Relevant Average Price for the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending (and inclusive of) 31 December 2012 is less than the then New Conversion Price, the lowest Reset Conversion Price will be equal to HK$0.10 (i.e. par value of each Share). If the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds are exercised in full at the lowest Reset Conversion Price (assuming no occurrence of any event upon which the New Conversion Price shall be adjusted), PGI will become interested in 1,540 million Shares by the acquisition of 1,540 million Conversion Shares through the exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds, representing about 25.40% of the Company’s issued share capital as enlarged by the issue of relevant number of the Conversion Shares. The following table summarises (i) the Company’s existing shareholding structure, (ii) the shareholding structure assuming and immediately after issue of Shares to PGI pursuant to its exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds in full (based on the existing shareholding structure) at the said lowest Reset Conversion Price, and (iii) the shareholding structure assuming and immediately after issue of Shares to PGI pursuant to its exercise of the conversion rights attached to the 2013 PGI Bonds in full (based on the existing shareholding structure) at the lowest Reset Conversion Price and the issue of Shares to Mr. Wu pursuant to his exercise of the conversion rights attached to the WJX Convertible Bonds in full.

The Conversion Price will be adjusted in the event of an alteration of the capital restructure of the Company or upon the occurrence of certain adjustment events. These adjustment events include consolidation or sub-division, capitalization of profits or reserves, capital distribution, rights issue (whether in relation to Shares, options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Shares), issue of Shares or grant of options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Shares (or other securities carrying rights to convert into or exchange for Shares) at less than 90% of the then current market price, modification of rights attached to securities carrying rights to convert into or exchange for Shares so that following such modification the consideration per Share receivable by the Company is less than the then current market price by 80%, the issue of Shares wholly for cash at a price per Share which is less than 80% of the then current market price, the issue of Shares for the acquisition of asset at a consideration (without any deduction of any commissions, discounts or expenses paid, allowed or incurred in connection with the issue thereof) per Share which is less than 80% the then current market price and offers of securities exchange.
