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.

Dear Sir or Madam,

SUBSCRIPTION OF SHARES BY INVESTOR AND NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

The Company announced on 17 May 2011 that the Company entered into the Subscription Agreement with the Investor pursuant to which the Investor has agreed to pay an aggregate amount of up to HK$165 million to the Company in Tranches and the Company has agreed to issue such number of Shares at the Subscription Price up to the equivalent amount of HK$165 million to the Investor.

  • For identification purpose only

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the Subscription and to give you notice of the EGM.

THE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

Date

17 May 2011

Parties

  • (1) the Company;

  • (2) SpringTree Special Opportunities Fund, LP.

The Investor is an investment fund managed by SpringTree Global Investors, LLC (“STGI”). STGI is a New York-based global private asset management firm. STGI focuses on equity and equity-linked investments in small-cap and mid-cap publicly-traded companies around the world. STGI provides creative funding, individually structured for each investment opportunity. It invests across a broad range of industries and, with approximately 20 investments in the recent two years, has established itself as a leading investor in small-cap Australian Securities Exchange-listed companies, where its investments have included companies such as Linc Energy Ltd, Prima BioMed Ltd, Legacy Iron Ore Ltd and Solimar Energy Ltd.

To the best of the Company’s information and belief, the Investor, STGI and its ultimate beneficial owners are Independent Third Parties.

Payment of Tranches

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Investor shall pay an aggregate amount of up to HK$165 million to the Company in Tranches. Within 2 business days following satisfaction of the conditions precedent described below, the Investor shall pay the first Tranche in the sum of HK$4 million to the Company. The Investor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described below, pay subsequent Tranches on a day on which Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange and which is a New York business day that falls 30 calendar days after the date of the immediate preceding payment date of a Tranche. The date of payment may be postponed at the election of the Investor if the VWAPs per Share are less than the Floor Price or the Base Price for over specified periods, or as mentioned in the section entitled “Subscription Shares” below.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The amount of subsequent Tranches is HK$4 million or such amount more than HK$4 million but not exceeding HK$7 million as the Company and the Investor shall mutually agree before payment of each relevant Tranche. The Company will take into account the prevailing market conditions and the capital requirements of the Group in determining whether or not to increase the amount of any Tranche beyond HK$4 million. The Tranche amount may be reduced by the Investor by pre-agreed formulae if trading in the Shares has been suspended during the pricing period and/or if the market capitalization of the Company is less than a specified amount. There shall be no more than 24 payments of Tranches in total.

Subscription Shares

The Company is to issue Subscription Shares to the Investor in connection with each Tranche, at the Subscription Price, generally on the 28th calendar day after the date of payment of that Tranche (subject to certain postponement events as specified in the Subscription Agreement), provided that at no time during the term of the Subscription Agreement will the Company issue, nor will the Investor alone or with another entity take up, any Shares or other equity security interest in the Company whereby the Investor would become interested in more than 19.99% of the voting rights of the Company. Where in the Investor’s reasonable opinion, an issue of the Subscription Shares would result in the Investor becoming interested in more than 19.99% of the voting rights of the Company, such issue of Subscription Shares (or the payment date in relation to such issuance, or both) shall be postponed for a period of up to 40 Business Days. If after the expiry of the postponement, an issue of the Subscription Shares would nevertheless result in the said threshold exceeded, the Company shall repay the prepaid Tranche in cash and no interest is payable.

The Subscription Price shall be the lesser of (i) 92.5% of the average of 3 daily VWAPs per Share (as selected by the Investor in its sole discretion) during the period commencing on the date of payment of that Tranche and ending on the date immediately preceding the date of issue of the Subscription Shares, or (ii) HK$0.30 per Share, as may be adjusted pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (“Subscription Price B”), provided, however, that Subscription Price B may be used not more than three (3) times during the term of the Subscription Agreement.

The number of Subscription Shares to be issued shall be determined by dividing the amount of that prepaid Tranche by the Subscription Price.

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The method of determination of the Subscription Price involves certain variables, and the Subscription Price used in any given month may differ from the Share price prevailing at the time of that monthly issuance. However, the pricing mechanism under the Subscription Agreement enables the Company to take advantage of potential general appreciation of the Share prices over a period of 24 months, thus potentially reducing the dilutionary effect on the Shareholders compared to a transaction in which the Company would have issued Shares in a single tranche based on current market price. Therefore the Company considers that the Subscription Price is fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and Shareholders as a whole. Additionally, see “Floor Price protection” below.

Floor Price protection

If the Subscription Price of any Subscription Shares is less than the Floor Price, unless the Investor elects to receive the Subscription Shares at the Floor Price, the Company may elect to (i) repay the relevant Tranche in cash with a premium of 8% (the “Optional Cash Payment”) and the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate the Subscription Agreement at no cost to the Company or (ii) proceed with the issue of the Subscription Shares at the Subscription Price. This protection provides the Company with the flexibility in terminating the Subscription Agreement at a lower cost in the event of a substantial drop in the Share prices.

Commencement Fee Shares

Upon payment of the first Tranche, the Company shall pay the Investor a non-refundable commencement fee in the amount of 1.3% of the aggregate amount of the investment under the Subscription Agreement, to be satisfied by way of issuance of 11,236,249 Shares credited as fully paid at HK$0.1909 per Share, to the Investor or its nominee or designee.

Options

Upon payment of the first Tranche, the Company shall grant to the Investor or its designee or nominee the Options. Each Option shall entitle the holder to be issued by the Company one Share at the Option Exercise Price. Each Option shall be exercisable at any time after the time of its grant and prior to the date that is 36 calendar months after the payment of the first Tranche, after which time it will lapse.

The Option Exercise Price is subject to customary adjustment in the event of a consolidation, subdivision, cancellation, or similar reconstruction of the issued capital of the Company and in the event of a payment of dividend by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves of the Company or distribution of Shares to Shareholders.

The Options shall be freely assignable and transferable, subject to the GEM Listing Rules and other applicable laws.

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Ranking of Shares

The Subscription Shares, the Commencement Fee Shares and the Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Options shall rank equally in all respects with the Shares existing on the date of issue of such Shares.

Price adjustments

The Floor Price, Subscription Price B and the Base Price are subject to customary adjustment in the event of a consolidation, subdivision, cancellation, or similar reconstruction of the issued capital of the Company and in the event of a payment of dividend by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves of the Company or distribution of Shares to Shareholders.

Investor’s sale of Shares

The Investor may not, on any one Trading Day, sell any of the Investor’s Shares exceeding the greater of (a) 15% of the Subscription Shares issued in respect of the prepaid Tranche, or (b) 15% of the trading volume of the Shares on the Stock Exchange on the preceding Trading Day, except where an event of default as specified in the Subscription Agreement has occurred or is likely to occur.

Conditions precedent to the payment of the first Tranche

The Investor shall have no obligation to pay the first Tranche if the following conditions precedents are not fulfilled by no later than the time specified below or, where no time is specified, by no later than 60 days from the date of the Subscription Agreement (or such other period as is agreed in writing) (“Latest Time”), and such conditions precedent may not be waived by the Investor:

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Prohibited Transactions

The Subscription Agreement prohibits the Company from entering into certain (limited) types of equity fund raising arrangements, including those generally called equity lines of credit or stand-by equity distribution agreements, during the term of the Subscription Agreement. Such prohibition does not, however, restrict normal fund raising exercises such as (i) rights issuances, shareholder purchase plans, share options issued pursuant to a scheme approved pursuant to Chapter 23 of the GEM Listing Rules, each at a fixed price per Share, or (ii) issuances of any convertible securities or other equity issuances (including but not limited to warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for shares) at a fixed initial conversion or subscription price, subject to adjustments for subsequent equity issuances at a price or effective price per Share that is lower than the then prevailing market price for the Shares.

Events of default

The Subscription Agreement contains events of default provisions which provide that on the occurrence of certain events of default specified therein, such as insolvency related events, breaches of the Subscription Agreement or regulatory requirements, suspension of trading in the Shares over 20 consecutive Trading Days, adverse effect on the Company, adverse change in financial markets, the contemplated transactions becoming void or illegal and modification of capital structure or rights attached to Shares, all outstanding Tranche amount prepaid shall, at the Investor’s absolute discretion, be immediately due and payable and the Investor may, in its absolute discretion, terminate the Subscription Agreement.

Termination

The Subscription Agreement shall terminate automatically immediately after the issue of the Subscription Shares in respect of the 24th Tranche under the Subscription Agreement.

The Subscription Agreement may be terminated:

  • (i) by the mutual written consent of the parties at any time;

  • (ii) by either party effective immediately if the payment of the first Tranche has not occurred by the Latest Time;

  • (iii) by the Company where the Company has notified the Investor of its desire to make the Optional Cash Payment;

  • (iv) by the Company, by written notice to the Investor and at no cost to the Company, effective on the first anniversary of the date of the Subscription Agreement or on payment of a fee of US$250,000 if terminated at any other time;

– 11 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (v) by the Investor, if the Share price falls below the Base Price over a period as specified in the Subscription Agreement;

  • (vi) by either party if there exists a law which makes it illegal or impossible in practice for either party to undertake any of the contemplated transactions, or render any of the contemplated transactions unenforceable, void or voidable; or

  • (vii) by the Investor provided that the Company has given notice to the Investor of its intention to undertake, or has undertaken, or has become required to undertake, a payment in cash to the Investor under the Subscription Agreement, such events being (1) the Company notifying the Investor of its desire to make the Optional Cash Payment described under the section “Floor Price protection” above; (2) the Investor would become interested in more than 19.99% of the voting rights of the Company described under the section “Subscription Shares” above; and (3) occurrence of the events of default described under the section “Events of default” above.

SPECIFIC MANDATE

The Investor’s Shares will be issued under a specific mandate to be sought from the Shareholders at the EGM. Application will be made to the Stock Exchange for the approval for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Investor’s Shares.

EFFECT OF THE SUBSCRIPTION ON SHAREHOLDING

Since the Subscription Price will be determined with reference to the prevailing market prices of the Shares, the total number of Subscription Shares cannot be determined at this stage. Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, the lowest price at which the Subscription Shares may be issued is the par value of a Share, subject to the Floor Price protection described above and the Investor’s right to terminate the Subscription Agreement if the Share price falls below the Base Price.

Assuming the Subscription Price is equal to the closing price of HK$0.224 per Share as quoted on GEM on 17 May 2011, being the date of the Subscription Agreement, and assuming the maximum amount of payment by the Investor being HK$165 million, the total number of Subscription Shares to be issued by the Company under the Subscription Agreement shall be 736,607,142 Shares, representing approximately 30.46% of the Company’s existing issued share capital of 2,418,055,819 Shares.

Assuming the Subscription Price is equal to the par value of HK$0.05 per Share and assuming the maximum amount of payment by the Investor being HK$165 million, the total number of Subscription Shares to be issued by the Company under the Subscription Agreement shall be 3,300,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 136.47% of the Company’s existing issued share capital of 2,418,055,819 Shares.

– 12 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION AND USE OF THE PROCEEDS

The Group is principally engaged in (i) the manufacture and sale of ceramic blanks and ferrules; (ii) the provision of advertising and media services; (iii) the manufacture and trading of high ended swimwear and related garment products and (iv) trading and retail of apparel and related accessories under the brandname of “Tonino Lamborghini”.

The Directors consider that the Subscription represents a good opportunity to broaden the capital base of the Company and to raise capital for the Company for its future business developments. Additionally, the Subscription provides the Company with certainty of access to capital over an approximately two year period. At the same time, it enables the Company to issue Shares at prices that are linked to prices prevailing at the time of their future issuance and potentially at premiums to the current share price, thus potentially minimizing the dilution for its shareholders. The ability to increase the tranches in the future, as the Company’s capital requirements change, enables the Company to minimize dilution in the earlier stages of its development. The Company has considered other methods of fund raising such as issue of shares under general mandate, open offer or rights issue. However such methods either fail to provide the Company with certainty of access to substantial amount of capital or fail to enable the Company to take advantage of the potential appreciation in the Share prices. The Directors consider the terms of the Subscription Agreement to be fair and reasonable and in the interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the proceeds from the Subscription shall be used for investments and general corporate and working capital purposes including but not limited to repayment of account payables, bank loans and other indebtedness but not, among other things, for dividend payments, or the repayment or redemption of any indebtedness or obligations or interests held by any security holders.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In order to enhance the growing prospects of the Group and by leveraging onto its established network and connections, the Company will continue to identify suitable opportunities in the apparel trading and retail industry and to expand its e-commerce business both by vertical integration and diversification through increase in product variety. The Group has recently completed the acquisition of Easy Time Trading Limited which possesses its strengths in the manufacturing of high-margin fashionable swimwear and related garment products together with the holding of the recognised trademark “Angevil”. It allows the Group to strengthen its existing online-shopping operations by providing a secured source of women’s fashion products and the opportunity to tap into the apparel trading and retail industry. The Group has also completed the acquisition of 51% of Charmston (Holdings) Limited which is principally engaged in the trading and retail of apparel and related accessories under the brandname “Tonino Lamborghini”. The Directors expect that the Group will continue to expand and develop its apparel trading and retail business which will require substantial working capital for inventory supply, capital expenditure on expanding points of sale, brand building and securing other sources of branded products. The estimated annual working capital requirement of the Group for the next two years is approximately HK$60 million. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Group has approximately HK$11.6 million available for its working capital purpose.

As set out under the section “Payment of Tranches” above, the initial Tranche will be HK$4 million and subsequent Tranches will be HK$4 million or such higher amount not exceeding HK$7 million as the Company and the Investor may agree. Therefore the net proceeds from the Subscription will range from HK$99 million up to the maximum of HK$165 million and will be paid to the Company over 24 months. The net proceeds from the Options will be approximately HK$5.9 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds principally for general corporate and working capital of the Group and the balance will be used for potential investment opportunities. The Company has not identified any potential investment opportunities with concrete plan to proceed as at the Latest Practicable Date.
