IMPORTANT NOTICES

NOTICE TO U.S. HOLDERS OF LAI FUNG SHARES AND/OR LAI FUNG OPTIONS

The Lai Fung Offers are being made for the securities of a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability and are subject to Hong Kong disclosure and other procedural requirements, which are different from those of the USA. The financial information included in this Lai Fung Composite Document has been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and thus may not be comparable to financial information of U.S. companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the USA. The Lai Fung Offers will be made in the USA pursuant to the applicable U.S. tender offer rules or certain available exemptions or exceptions therefrom and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the SFO. Accordingly, the Lai Fung Offers will be subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments that are different from those applicable under U.S. domestic tender offer procedures and law.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Lai Fung Offers by a U.S. holder of Lai Fung Shares and/or Lai Fung Options, respectively, may be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and under applicable state and local, as well as foreign and other tax laws. Each holder of Lai Fung Shares and/or Lai Fung Options is urged to consult his/her/its independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax consequences of acceptance of the Lai Fung Offers.

U.S. holders of Lai Fung Shares and Lai Fung Options may encounter difficulty enforcing their rights and any claims arising out of the U.S. federal securities laws, as each of the Offeror and Lai Fung is located in a country outside the USA and some or all of their respective officers and directors may be residents of a country other than the United States. U.S. holders of Lai Fung Shares and Lai Fung Options may not be able to sue a non-U.S. company or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws. Further, U.S. holders of Lai Fung Shares and Lai Fung Options may encounter difficulty compelling a non-U.S. company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s judgment.

In accordance with normal Hong Kong practice and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b) of the U.S. Exchange Act, the Offeror hereby discloses that it or its affiliates, or its nominees, or its brokers (acting as agents) may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, Lai Fung Shares outside of the United States, other than pursuant to the Lai Fung Share Offer, before or during the period in which the Lai Fung Share Offer remains open for acceptance. In accordance with the Takeovers Code and Rule 14e-5(b) of the U.S. Exchange Act, HSBC and its affiliates may continue to act as exempt principal traders (where such statuses are granted to the relevant HSBC entities) in the Lai Fung Shares on the Stock Exchange. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices, provided that (i) any such purchase or arrangement complies with applicable law and is made outside the United States; and (ii) if applicable and required under the relevant exemption or exception (or the Takeovers Code), the Lai Fung Share Offer Price is increased to match any consideration paid in any such purchase or arrangement. Any information about such purchases will be reported to the SFC and, to the extent made public by the SFC, will be available on the website of the SFC at http://www.sfc.hk. To the extent that such information is required to be publicly disclosed in Hong Kong in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, this information will, as applicable, also be publicly disclosed in the United States, by publishing it on the website of LSD at www.laisun.com.

LETTER FROM HSBC

5. THE LAI FUNG OPTION OFFER AND THE LAI FUNG OPTION OFFER PRICE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 10,234,117 Lai Fung Options (all of which vested on their respective dates of grant), each giving the Lai Fung Optionholder the right to subscribe for one new Lai Fung Share. The exercise of such Lai Fung Options in full would result in the issue of 10,234,117 new Lai Fung Shares, representing approximately 3.13% of the issued share capital of Lai Fung as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 3.03% of the issued share capital of Lai Fung as enlarged by the issue of such new Lai Fung Shares.

In accordance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code, the Offeror will make (or procure to be made on its behalf) an appropriate offer to all the Lai Fung Optionholders for the cancellation of every Lai Fung Option, whether vested or unvested, by way of the Lai Fung Option Offer.

Under the Lai Fung Option Offer, the Offeror will, in accordance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code, offer the Lai Fung Optionholders the Lai Fung Option Offer Price (which is the “see-through” price, being the Lai Fung Share Offer Price minus the exercise price of the relevant Lai Fung Option) in cash for the cancellation of each Lai Fung Option they hold, whether vested or unvested, provided that if the exercise price of any Lai Fung Option is equal to or greater than the Lai Fung Share Offer Price (such that the “see-through” price is zero or negative), the Lai Fung Option Offer Price will be a nominal amount of HK$0.01 for every 100 Lai Fung Options (or, if lesser, any part thereof).

Further information on the Lai Fung Option Offer has been set out in the Lai Fung Option Offer Letter to the Lai Fung Optionholders, which is despatched on the same date as the despatch of this Lai Fung Composite Document.

If any Lai Fung Option is exercised in accordance with the terms of the relevant Lai Fung Share Option Scheme prior to the close of the Lai Fung Share Offer, any Lai Fung Shares issued as a result of such exercise will be subject to the Lai Fung Share Offer.

Pursuant to the terms of the Lai Fung Share Option Scheme adopted by Lai Fung on 21 August 2003 (as amended on 8 August 2018) and the Lai Fung Share Option Scheme adopted by Lai Fung on 18 December 2012, all Lai Fung Options shall remain valid and exercisable during their respective option periods in accordance with the terms of the relevant Lai Fung Share Option Scheme notwithstanding the Lai Fung Share Offer.

6. UNCONDITIONAL LAI FUNG OFFERS

The pre-condition to the Lai Fung Offers, being the eSun Share Offer becoming or being declared unconditional in all respects, was fulfilled on 8 August 2018. The Lai Fung Offers are unconditional in all respects and are not conditional upon any minimum level of acceptances being received.

– 13 –

LETTER FROM HSBC

7. VALUE OF THE LAI FUNG OFFERS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were (i) 327,044,134 Lai Fung Shares in issue, of which 165,485,406 Lai Fung Shares are held by eSun, (ii) 161,558,728 Lai Fung Offer Shares and (iii) 10,234,117 Lai Fung Options (all of which vested on their respective dates of grant) entitling the Lai Fung Optionholders to subscribe for an aggregate of 10,234,117 Lai Fung Shares at an exercise price ranging from HK$6.650 to HK$13.520 per Lai Fung Share.

On the assumption that the number of Lai Fung Shares will not change (whether by way of any exercise of the Lai Fung Options or otherwise) and the number of Lai Fung Options will not change, the value of the Lai Fung Share Offer is approximately HK$843.3 million and the total amount required to satisfy the cancellation of all Lai Fung Options is approximately HK$1,023.4. On this basis, in aggregate, the Lai Fung Offers are valued at approximately HK$843.3 million.

On the assumption that no further Lai Fung Options will be granted and all of the Lai Fung Options will be exercised before the close of the Lai Fung Share Offer, Lai Fung will have to issue 10,234,117 new Lai Fung Shares, representing approximately 3.03% of the enlarged issued share capital of Lai Fung, upon the exercise of the Lai Fung Options. On this basis, there will be 171,792,845 Lai Fung Offer Shares (including the new Lai Fung Shares issued as a result of the exercise of the Lai Fung Options) and the value of the Lai Fung Share Offer will be approximately HK$896.8 million. In this case, no amount will be payable by the Offeror under the Lai Fung Option Offer.

8. PUBLIC FLOAT OF LAI FUNG

There is a possibility that the public will hold less than 25% of the Lai Fung Shares upon closing of the Lai Fung Offers depending on the level of acceptances. In that case, the Offeror and Lai Fung intend to take appropriate steps to restore the public float in compliance with the Listing Rules.

The Offeror intends to maintain the listing of the Lai Fung Shares on the Stock Exchange following closing of the Lai Fung Offers. The Offeror does not intend to exercise any rights to acquire any Lai Fung Shares in respect of which the Lai Fung Share Offer is not accepted.

The Stock Exchange has stated that if, upon the close of the Lai Fung Share Offer, less than the minimum prescribed percentage applicable to Lai Fung, being 25% of the issued Lai Fung Shares, are held by the public, or if the Stock Exchange believes that:

  • a false market exists or may exist in the trading of the Lai Fung Shares; or

  • that there are insufficient Lai Fung Shares in public hands to maintain an orderly market,

– 14 –

LETTER FROM HSBC

then the Stock Exchange will consider exercising its discretion to suspend dealings in the Lai Fung Shares. The Offeror Directors have jointly and severally undertaken to the Stock Exchange to take appropriate steps to ensure that sufficient public float exists in the Lai Fung Shares after the close of the Lai Fung Offers as long as Lai Fung remains listed on the Stock Exchange.

9. LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT BOARD COMMITTEE AND LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

The Lai Fung Board has established the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee, comprising Mr. Lucas Ignatius Loh Jen Yuh, Mr. Puah Tze Shyang, Mr. Ku Moon Lun, Mr. Law Kin Ho, Mr. Mak Wing Sum, Alvin and Mr. Shek Lai Him, Abraham, to make a recommendation to the Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders and the Lai Fung Optionholders as to whether the Lai Fung Offers are, or are not, fair and reasonable and as to acceptance.

Pursuant to Rule 2.8 of the Takeovers Code, the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee comprises all the non-executive Lai Fung Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the Offers other than as holders of the Lai Fung Shares and/or the Lai Fung Options. Mr. Lam Bing Kwan, an independent non-executive Lai Fung Director, is also an independent non-executive director of LSG and LSD, both of which are holding companies of the Offeror. Accordingly, he is regarded as being interested in the Lai Fung Offers for the purposes of Rule 2.8 of the Takeovers Code and is not a member of the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee. All of the other non-executive Lai Fung Directors are members of the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee.

Gram Capital, with the approval of the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee, has been appointed as the Lai Fung Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee in connection with the Lai Fung Offers.

10. SHAREHOLDING STRUCTURE OF LAI FUNG

LSD does not currently intend to introduce major changes to the business of Lai Fung (including any redeployment of the fixed assets of Lai Fung) save for those changes which LSD may from time to time implement following the review of its strategic options relating to the business, structure and/or direction of the Lai Fung Group.

It is also the current intention of LSD that the employment of the existing employees of the Lai Fung Group and the directorship of the existing directors of the Lai Fung Group will be continued following completion of the Offers except for changes which may occur in the ordinary course of business.

19. CONFIRMATION OF FINANCIAL RESOURCES

The Offeror intends to finance the cash required for the Lai Fung Offers from existing internal cash resources and/or external debt financing (being facilities (i) arranged by Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited, Bank of Communications Co., Ltd. Hong Kong Branch, Bank of East Asia, BNP Paribas, Cathay United Bank Company Limited, Hong Kong Branch, China Construction Bank (Asia) Corporation Limited, Chiyu Banking Corporation Limited, DBS Bank Ltd., Fubon Financial Holding Co., Ltd., Hang Seng Bank Limited, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Asia) Limited, Nanyang Commercial Bank, Limited, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, Shanghai Commercial Bank Ltd., Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co., Ltd., Hong Kong Branch, Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited and United Overseas Bank Limited and (ii) granted by Hang Seng Bank Limited) of the LSD Group.

The Offeror and LSD do not intend that the payment of interest on, repayment of or security for any liability (contingent or otherwise) under such external debt financing will depend to any significant extent on the business of the Lai Fung Group.

HSBC, being the financial adviser to LSD and the Offeror in respect of the Lai Fung Offers, is satisfied that sufficient financial resources are available to the Offeror to satisfy full acceptance of the Lai Fung Offers in accordance with their respective terms.

INTRODUCTION

We refer to our appointment as the Lai Fung Independent Financial Adviser to advise the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee in respect of the Lai Fung Offers, details of which are set out in the Lai Fung Composite Document dated 15 August 2018 jointly issued by Lai Fung and the Offeror to the Lai Fung Shareholders, of which this letter forms part. Terms used in this letter shall have the same meanings as defined in the Lai Fung Composite Document unless the context requires otherwise.

Reference is made to (i) the Joint Announcement dated 27 May 2018 in respect of, among others, (1) a conditional voluntary general cash offer by HSBC on behalf of the Offeror, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LSD, to acquire all of the issued shares of eSun (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by LSD, the Offeror or their respective subsidiaries) and to cancel all the outstanding share options of eSun and (2) the possible unconditional mandatory general cash offer by HSBC on behalf of the Offeror, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LSD, to acquire all of the issued shares of Lai Fung (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by LSD, the Offeror, eSun or their respective subsidiaries) and to cancel all the outstanding share options of Lai Fung; (ii) the eSun Composite Document dated 23 July 2018; and (iii) the announcement dated 8 August 2018 jointly issued by LSG, LSD, the Offeror, eSun and Lai Fung in respect of, among other things, the eSun Offers having become unconditional in all respects and the satisfaction of the pre-condition to the Lai Fung Offers.

The eSun Share Offer became unconditional in all respects on 8 August 2018. LSD, the Offeror and their respective subsidiaries together hold more than 50% of the voting rights in eSun as a result of the eSun Share Offer and as at the Latest Practicable Date. Pursuant to the chain principle in Note 8 to Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code, the Offeror is required to make (or procure to be made on its behalf) an unconditional mandatory general cash offer to acquire all of the Lai Fung Shares not already owned or agreed to be acquired by LSD, the Offeror, eSun or their respective subsidiaries. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lai Fung Offer Shares include Lai Fung Shares which are owned by the Offeror Concert Parties (other than those already owned or agreed to be acquired by LSD, the Offeror, eSun or their respective subsidiaries).

The Lai Fung Independent Board Committee comprising the non-executive Directors Messrs. Lucas Ignatius Loh Jen Yuh and Puah Tze Shyang and the independent non-executive Directors Messrs. Ku Moon Lun, Law Kin Ho, Mak Wing Sum, Alvin and Shek Lai Him, Abraham, has been formed to advise the Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders and the Lai Fung Optionholders on whether the terms of the Lai Fung Offers are fair and reasonable and as to the acceptance of the Lai Fung Offers.

The appointment of Gram Capital as the Lai Fung Independent Financial Adviser has been approved by the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee.

BASIS OF OUR OPINION

In formulating our opinion to the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee, we have relied on the statements, information, opinions and representations contained or referred to in the Lai Fung Composite Document and the information and representations as provided to us by the Lai Fung Directors and the Offeror (where applicable). We have assumed that all information and representations that have been provided by the Lai Fung Directors and the Offeror (where applicable), for which they are solely and wholly responsible, are true and accurate at the time when they were made and continue to be so as at the Latest Practicable Date, and should there be any material changes to our opinion after the Latest Practicable Date, Lai Fung Shareholders would be notified as soon as possible. We have also assumed that all statements of belief, opinion, expectation and intention made by the Lai Fung Directors and the Offeror (where applicable) in the Lai Fung Composite Document were reasonably made after due enquiry and careful consideration. We have no reason to suspect that any material facts or information have been withheld or to doubt the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information and facts contained in the Lai Fung Composite Document, or the reasonableness of the opinions expressed by Lai Fung, its advisers and/or the Lai Fung Directors and the Offeror (where applicable), which have been provided to us. Our opinion is based on the Lai Fung Directors’ and the Offeror’s representation and confirmation that there is no undisclosed private agreement/arrangement or implied understanding with anyone concerning the Lai Fung Offers. We consider that we have taken sufficient and necessary steps on which to form a reasonable basis and an informed view for our opinion in compliance with Rule 13.80 of the Listing Rules and Rule 2 of the Takeovers Code.

– 33 –

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Your attention is drawn to the responsibility statements as set out in the section headed “RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT” of Appendix IV to the Lai Fung Composite Document. We, as the Lai Fung Independent Financial Adviser, take no responsibility for the contents of any part of the Lai Fung Composite Document, save and except for this letter of advice.

We consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to reach an informed view and to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. We have not, however, conducted any independent in-depth investigation into the business and affairs of Lai Fung, the Offeror or their respective subsidiaries or associates (if applicable), nor have we considered the taxation implication on the Lai Fung Group or the Lai Fung Shareholders as a result of the Lai Fung Offers. Lai Fung has been separately advised by its own professional advisers with respect to the Lai Fung Offer and the preparation of the Lai Fung Composite Document (other than this letter).

We have assumed that the Lai Fung Offers will be consummated in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Lai Fung Composite Document without any waiver, amendment, addition or delay of any terms or conditions. We have assumed that in connection with the receipt of all the necessary governmental, regulatory or other approvals and consents as required for the Lai Fung Offers, no delay, limitation, condition or restriction will be imposed that would have a material adverse effect on the contemplated benefits expected to be derived from the Lai Fung Offers. In addition, our opinion is necessarily based on the financial, market, economic, industry-specific and other conditions as they existed on, and the information made available to us as at the Latest Practicable Date. The Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders and the Lai Fung Optionholders will be notified of any material changes as soon as possible in accordance with Rule 9.1 of the Takeovers Code.

Lastly, where information in this letter has been extracted from published or otherwise publicly available sources, it is the responsibility of Gram Capital to ensure that such information has been correctly and fairly extracted, reproduced or presented from the relevant sources while we are not obligated to conduct any independent in-depth investigation into the accuracy and completeness of those information.

PRINCIPAL FACTORS AND REASONS CONSIDERED

In arriving at our opinion in respect of the Lai Fung Offers, we have taken into consideration the following principal factors and reasons:

(1) Background and terms of the Lai Fung Offers

The Lai Fung Share Offer

The Lai Fung Share Offer is being made by HSBC on behalf of the Offeror in compliance with the Takeovers Code on the basis set out below.

For each Lai Fung Offer Share ...................................................................... HK$5.22 in cash

– 34 –

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 161,558,728 Lai Fung Offer Shares. On this basis, the value of the Lai Fung Share Offer is approximately HK$843.3 million.

Further details of the Lai Fung Share Offer are set out in Appendix I to the Lai Fung Composite Document and the Form of Lai Fung Share Offer Acceptance.

The Lai Fung Option Offer

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 10,234,117 Lai Fung Options (all of which vested on their respective dates of grant), each giving the Lai Fung Optionholders the right to subscribe for one new Lai Fung Share. The exercise of such Lai Fung Options in full would result in the issue of 10,234,117 new Lai Fung Shares, representing approximately 3.13% of the issued share capital of Lai Fung as at the Latest Practicable Date and approximately 3.03% of the issued share capital of Lai Fung as enlarged by the issue of such new Lai Fung Shares. In accordance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code, when the Lai Fung Share Offer is made, the Offeror is required to make (or procure to be made on its behalf) an appropriate offer to all the Lai Fung Optionholders for the cancellation of every Lai Fung Option, whether vested or unvested, by way of the Lai Fung Option Offer.

Under the Lai Fung Option Offer, the Offeror is required to, in accordance with Rule 13 of the Takeovers Code, offer the Lai Fung Optionholders the Lai Fung Option Offer Price (which is the “see-through” price, being the Lai Fung Share Offer Price minus the exercise price of the relevant Lai Fung Option) in cash for the cancellation of each Lai Fung Option they hold, whether vested or unvested, provided that if the exercise price of any Lai Fung Option is equal to or greater than the Lai Fung Share Offer Price (such that the “see-through” price is zero or negative), the Lai Fung Option Offer Price will be a nominal amount of HK$0.01 for every 100 Lai Fung Options (or, if lesser, any part thereof).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there are 10,234,117 Lai Fung Options (all of which vested on their respective dates of grant) entitling the Lai Fung Optionholders to subscribe for an aggregate of 10,234,117 Lai Fung Shares at an exercise price ranging from HK$6.650 to HK$13.520 per Lai Fung Share. On this basis, the total amount required to satisfy the cancellation of all Lai Fung Options is approximately HK$1,023.4.

Further details of the Lai Fung Option Offer are set out in Appendix I to the Lai Fung Composite Document and the Form of Lai Fung Option Offer Acceptance.

In aggregate, the Lai Fung Offers are valued at approximately HK$843.3 million.

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As depicted from the table above, Lai Fung Group recorded revenue and profit of approximately HK$1.33 billion and HK$1.59 billion respectively for FY2017, representing a decrease of approximately 35.08% and an increase of 77.24% respectively as compared to those for FY2016. With reference to the Annual Report, the decrease in revenue was primarily due to projects such as Guangzhou Eastern Place Phase V, Guangzhou King’s Park and Shanghai May Flower Plaza having been sold and substantially recognised during FY2016 and fewer properties being available for sale during FY2017; while the increase in profit was mainly attributable to (a) increased profit contribution from a joint venture project, (b) a higher revaluation gain arising from the revaluation of Lai Fung Group’s investment properties, (c) the fair value gain arising on the cross currency swaps; and (d) tax indemnity amount received by Lai Fung Group from LSD, which outweighed the effect of lower operating profit due to lower recognised property sales from Lai Fung Group’s subsidiaries.

As also illustrated from the table above, Lai Fung Group recorded revenue and profit of approximately HK$509.41 million and HK$400.23 million respectively for HY2018, representing an increase of approximately 6.34% and 15.47% respectively as compared to those for HY2017. With reference to the Interim Report, the increase in profit was mainly attributable to a higher revaluation gain arising from the revaluation of Lai Fung Group’s investment properties.

As at 31 January 2018, Lai Fung Group had net assets of approximately HK$16.39 billion.

With reference to the Annual Report and Interim Report, Lai Fung operates its property development and property investment business in the PRC. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of the PRC, (i) the gross domestic product (GDP) of PRC amounted to RMB82,712.2 billion in 2017, representing a year-on-year growth of 6.9% as compared to that in 2016; (ii) real estate investment amount in PRC reached RMB10,979.9 billion in 2017, representing a year-on-year growth of 7.0% as compared to that in 2016; (iii) area of land acquisition in PRC amounted to approximately 255.08 million square meter in 2017, representing a year-on-year growth of 15.8% as compared to that in 2016; and (iv) area of commercialised buildings (including residential, office and commercial) sold in PRC amounted to approximately 1.69 billion square meter in 2017, representing a year-on-year growth of 7.7% as compared to that in 2016. The above figures on the PRC real estate industry are generally positive.

With reference to the Interim Report, Lai Fung Group had a number of projects in various stages of development in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Zhongshan and Hengqin. The rental portfolio was expected to increase from approximately 3.3 million square feet to approximately 6.6 million square feet through developing the existing projects on hand over the next few years.

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

Taking into account the above, in particular, (i) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price was lower than the closing prices of the Lai Fung Shares during the entire Review Period; (ii) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price represents a deep discount to each of the Lai Fung Share closing prices as illustrated in the sub-section headed “Lai Fung Share Offer Price comparison” above; and (iii) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price represents a discount of approximately 89.42% to the unaudited consolidated net asset value attributable to owners per Lai Fung Share as at 31 January 2018 (based on the total number of issued Lai Fung Shares as at 31 January 2018), we are of the opinion that the Lai Fung Share Offer Price is unattractive and is not fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

In addition, the Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders should closely monitor the market price and liquidity of the Lai Fung Shares during the Lai Fung Offer Period and carefully consider the relevant risks and uncertainties based on their individual risk preference and tolerance level. Those Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders who decide to retain part or all of their investments in the Lai Fung Shares should also carefully monitor the financial performance of Lai Fung Group as well as the intention of LSD in relation to Lai Fung Group in the future, and the potential difficulties they may encounter in disposing of their investments in the Lai Fung Shares after the close of the Lai Fung Offer.

(6) The Lai Fung Option Offer Price

Set out below is a summary of the number Lai Fung Options and their respective exercise price as at the Latest Practicable Date as extract from the Lai Fung Composite Document.

Number of Lai Fung Options
Lai Fung Option exercise price (each carrying the right to subscribe
per Lai Fung Share for one new Lai Fung Share)
HK$
6.65 1,009,591
8.00 180,000
9.50 220,000
11.40 8,374,526
13.52 450,000

The Lai Fung Option Offer Price to cancel all the Lai Fung Options is a nominal value of HK$0.01 for every 100 Lai Fung Options. Based on the closing price of the Lai Fung Shares of HK$10.32 as at the Latest Practicable Date, an aggregate of 1,409,591 Lai Fung Options (with exercise prices ranged from HK$6.65 to HK$9.50) were in-the-money (the “ In-the-money Lai Fung Options ”) and 8,824,526 Lai Fung Options (with exercise prices ranged from HK$11.40 to HK$13.52) were out-of-the-money (the “ Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options ”).

– 41 –

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

For the In-the-money Lai Fung Options as at the Latest Practicable Date, given that the differences between the closing price of the Lai Fung Shares and the exercise prices are higher than the Lai Fung Option Offer Price, we are of the opinion that the Lai Fung Option Offer Price is unattractive and is not fair and reasonable so far as the holders of the In-the-money Lai Fung Options (the “ In-the-money Optionholders ”) are concerned.

As for the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options, the holders of the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Optionholders (the “ Out-of-the-money Optionholders ”) can only receive an aggregate amount of less than HK$900 for accepting the Lai Fung Option Offer (the “ Acceptance Consideration ”). Although the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options were out-of-the-money as their exercise prices are higher than the closing price of the Lai Fung Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date, we consider the Acceptance Consideration to be immaterial and unattractive to the Out-of-the-money Optionholders.

Although it is difficult to predict the future performance of the Lai Fung Share prices, it is reasonable for the Out-of-the-money Optionholders to preserve their opportunities for capturing the benefit of the possible increase in the Lai Fung Share prices (which may cause the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options to be “in-the-money”) in future, instead of accepting the Lai Fung Option Offer for an immaterial and unattractive Acceptance Consideration of less than HK$900. Accordingly, we are also of the opinion that the Lai Fung Option Offer Price is unattractive and is not fair and reasonable so far as the Out-of-the-money Optionholders are concerned.

Nevertheless, if the Out-of-the-money Optionholders are pessimistic about the future financial performance of the Lai Fung Group after the Lai Fung Offers, may, having regard to their own circumstances, consider accepting the Lai Fung Option Offer in respect of all or any part of their Lai Fung Options.

RECOMMENDATION

Having considered the principal factors and reasons as discussed above, in particular:

  • (i) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price of HK$5.22 is lower than the closing prices of the Lai Fung Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange during the Review Period;

  • (ii) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price of HK$5.22 represents a deep discount to the closing prices of the Lai Fung Shares respectively as at the Last Trading Day and as at the Latest Practicable Date; and

  • (iii) the Lai Fung Share Offer Price represents a discount of approximately 89.42% to the unaudited consolidated net asset value attributable to owners per Lai Fung Share as at 31 January 2018 (based on the total number of issued Lai Fung Shares as at 31 January 2018),

we consider that the terms of the Lai Fung Share Offer are not fair and reasonable. Accordingly, we recommend the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee to advise the Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders not to accept the Lai Fung Share Offer.

– 42 –

LETTER FROM THE LAI FUNG INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISER

As the exercise prices of the In-the-money Lai Fung Options are higher than the Lai Fung Share Offer Price, the In-the-money Optionholders could only receive a nominal amount of HK$0.01 for every 100 Lai Fung Options for accepting the Lai Fung Option Offer. For the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options, it is reasonable for the Lai Fung Out-of-the-money Optionholders to preserve their opportunities for capturing the benefit of the possible increase in the Lai Fung Share prices (which may cause the Out-of-the-money Lai Fung Options to be “in-the-money”) in future, instead of accepting the Lai Fung Option Offer for an immaterial and unattractive Acceptance Consideration of less than HK$900.

Accordingly, we are of the opinion that the terms of the Lai Fung Option Offer are unattractive and are not fair and reasonable so far as the Lai Fung Optionholders are concerned. Based on the foregoing, we recommend the Lai Fung Independent Board Committee to advise the Lai Fung Optionholders not to accept the Lai Fung Option Offer.

Those Disinterested Lai Fung Shareholders/Lai Fung Optionholders who decide to retain part or all of their investments in the Lai Fung Shares/Lai Fung Options should carefully monitor the intention of LSD in relation to Lai Fung in the future and the potential difficulties they may encounter in realising their investments after the close of the Lai Fung Offers. Further terms and conditions of the Lai Fung Offers are set out in the “Letter from HSBC” of and Appendix I to the Lai Fung Composite Document.

As different Lai Fung Shareholders/Lai Fung Optionholders would have different investment criteria, objectives and/or circumstances, we would recommend any Lai Fung Shareholders/ Lai Fung Optionholders who may require advice in relation to any aspect of the Lai Fung Composite Document, or as to the action to be taken, to consult a licensed securities dealer, bank manager, solicitor, professional accountant, tax adviser or other professional adviser.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of Gram Capital Limited Graham Lam Managing Director

4. NOMINEE REGISTRATION

To ensure equality of treatment of all the Lai Fung Offer Shareholders, those Lai Fung Offer Shareholders who hold Lai Fung Offer Shares as nominee on behalf of more than one beneficial owner should, as far as practicable, treat the holding of each beneficial owner separately. It is essential for the beneficial owners of the Lai Fung Offer Shares whose investments are registered in the names of nominees to provide instructions to their nominees of their intentions with regard to the Lai Fung Offers. Acceptance of the Lai Fung Share Offer by any nominee will be deemed to constitute a warranty by such nominee to the Offeror that the number of Lai Fung Offer Shares it has indicated in the Form of Lai Fung Share Offer Acceptance is the aggregate number of Lai Fung Offer Shares for which such nominee has received authorisations from the beneficial owners to accept the Lai Fung Share Offer on their behalf.

III. INDEBTEDNESS, CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

As at 30 June 2018, being the latest practicable date for ascertaining certain information relating to this indebtedness statement, the Lai Fung Group had outstanding consolidated total borrowings (after intra-group elimination) of approximately HK$7,221 million comprising bank loans of approximately HK$3,525 million, unsecured guaranteed notes of approximately HK$2,725 million, unsecured and unguaranteed advances from a former substantial shareholder of approximately HK$55 million, unsecured and unguaranteed loans from a joint venture of approximately HK$663 million and unsecured and unguaranteed loans from a fellow subsidiary of approximately HK$253 million.

As at 30 June 2018, the Lai Fung Group had bank loans of approximately HK$3,525 million in aggregate, of which approximately HK$3,284 million were secured while the remaining HK$241 million were unsecured. Certain properties (including investment properties, properties under development, serviced apartments (including related leasehold improvements) and construction in progress) and certain bank balances were pledged to banks to secure bank loan facilities granted to the Lai Fung Group. Equity interests in certain subsidiaries of Lai Fung were pledged to banks to secure certain bank loan facilities granted to the Lai Fung Group. In addition, eSun (the ultimate holding company of Lai Fung), Lai Fung and certain of its subsidiaries have also provided corporate guarantees in favour of the banks in respect of certain secured bank loan facilities granted to the Lai Fung Group.

The Lai Fung Group had provided guarantees to certain banks in respect of mortgage loan facilities granted by such banks to certain end-buyers of property units developed by the Lai Fung Group. Pursuant to the terms of the guarantees, upon default in mortgage payments by these end-buyers, the Lai Fung Group will be responsible to repay the outstanding mortgage loan principal amounts together with accrued interest owed by the end-buyers in default. The Lai Fung Group’s obligation in relation to such guarantees has been gradually relinquished along with the settlement of the mortgage loans granted by the banks to the end-buyers. Such obligation will also be relinquished when the property ownership certificates for the relevant properties are issued and/or the end-buyers have fully repaid the mortgage loans. As at 30 June 2018, in respect of these guarantees, the contingent liabilities of the Lai Fung Group are estimated to be approximately HK$552 million.

Save as aforesaid and apart from intra-group liabilities, the Lai Fung Group did not, as at 30 June 2018, have any material outstanding (i) debt securities, whether issued and outstanding, authorised or otherwise created but unissued, or term loans, whether guaranteed, unguaranteed, secured (whether the security is provided by the Lai Fung Group or by third parties) or unsecured; (ii) other borrowings or indebtedness in the nature of borrowings including bank overdrafts and liabilities under acceptances (other than normal trade bills) or acceptance credits or hire purchase commitments, whether guaranteed, unguaranteed, secured or unsecured; (iii) mortgage or charges; or (iv) guarantees or other contingent liabilities.

IV. MATERIAL CHANGES

The Lai Fung Directors confirm that save for the following matter, there has been no material change in the financial or trading position or outlook of the Lai Fung Group subsequent to 31 July 2017, the date to which the latest audited consolidated financial statements of Lai Fung were made up, up to and including the Latest Practicable Date:

  • (i) According to the Lai Fung’s interim report for the six months ended 31 January 2018, the Lai Fung Group recorded (a) substantial increase in profit from operating activities for the six months ended 31 January 2018 as compared to the six months ended 31 January 2017, mainly due to increase in fair value gains on investment properties; and (b) substantial decrease in share of profits of joint ventures for the six months ended 31 January 2018 as compared to the six months ended 31 January 2017, mainly due to the decreased profit contribution from the property sales of Guangzhou Dolce Vita, the joint venture project with CapitaLand China Holdings Pte Ltd, as the properties held under this project had been substantially sold.

  • (ii) On 18 January 2018, Lai Fung Bonds (2018) Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lai Fung issued US$350,000,000 of 5.65% fixed rate guaranteed notes, which will mature on 18 January 2023 for bullet repayment.

Dear Sirs

Valuation of Various Property Interests in the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong

In accordance with your instructions for us to value the property interests held by Lai Fung Holdings Limited (“ Lai Fung ”), its subsidiaries and associated companies which it has a direct or indirect interest of 30% or more of the voting rights (hereinafter together referred to in this letter and the attached valuation reports as the “ Lai Fung Group ”) in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”) and Hong Kong, we confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the market values of the property interests as at 31 May 2018.

– III-1 –

PROPERTY VALUATION OF THE LAI FUNG GROUP

APPENDIX III

Basis of Valuation

Our valuation is our opinion of the market value of the property interest which we would define as “the estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.”

The market value is the best price reasonably obtainable by the seller and the most advantageous price reasonably obtainable by the buyer. This estimate specifically excludes an estimated price inflated or deflated by special terms or circumstances such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback arrangements, special considerations or concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of value available only to a specific owner or purchaser. The market value of an asset or liability is also estimated without regard to costs of sale or purchase (or transaction) and without offset for any associated taxes or potential taxes.

In preparing our valuation report, we have complied with “The HKIS Valuation Standards 2017” published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, all requirements contained in the provision of Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities issued by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and Rule 11 of the Code on Takeovers and Mergers published by the Securities and Futures Commission.

Valuation Methodology

In forming our opinion of the values of the property interests in Groups I and III, we have valued the properties by using “Income Approach — term and reversion method” by capitalizing the net income shown on tenancy schedules handed to us by the Lai Fung Group and made provisions for reversionary income potential. We have also made reference to sales evidence as available in the market.

We have valued the property interests in Group II by using Market Approach whenever market comparable transactions are available and assumed sale of property interests with the benefit of vacant possession.

– III-2 –

APPENDIX III

PROPERTY VALUATION OF THE LAI FUNG GROUP

In valuing property interests in Group IV, we have valued the property interests on the basis that the properties will be developed and completed in accordance with the Lai Fung Group’s latest development proposals provided to us. We have assumed that approvals for the proposals have been obtained without any onerous condition which would affect the values of the property interests. In arriving at our opinion of values, we have made reference to comparable transactions in the locality and also taken into account the construction costs that will be expended to reflect the quality of the completed developments.

Due to the specific purpose for which the buildings and structures of the cultural attractions portion of property no 21 have been designed, there is no readily identifiable market comparable, we have thus valued the property by Cost Approach. Our valuation is based on an estimate of the market value for the existing use of the land, plus the current Gross Replacement Cost of the improvements, less allowances for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization, if any. We would define “Gross Replacement Cost” as the estimated cost of erecting the building or a modern substitute building having the same area as the existing building at price levels as at the valuation date. The estimated building cost includes professional fees and finance charges payable during the construction period and other associated expenses directly related to the construction of the building. We must state that cessation of the existing business (if any) would have significant impact on the market value of the property as derived by the Cost Approach. While the cultural attractions portion was under construction as at the date of the valuation, we relied upon the information including but not limited to the profit forecast of the cultural attractions provided that revenue of the cultural attractions will be able to sustain the future on-going operation.

For the property interest in Group V, we have valued it by using Market Approach by making reference to sales evidence as available in the market.

Title Documents and Encumbrances

We have caused land searches to be made at the Land Registry for the Hong Kong properties valued and have been provided by the Lai Fung Group with extracts of title documents relating to the property interests in the PRC. However, we have not inspected the original documents to ascertain any amendments which may not appear on the copies handed to us by the Lai Fung Group. In the course of our valuations, we have relied on the information given by the Lai Fung Group and its PRC legal advisers, Allbright Law Offices, Guangda Law Firm and Guangdong G&Z Law Firm, regarding the title and other legal matters relating to the properties in the PRC.

No allowance has been made in our report for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on the property interests nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in affecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their values.

PROPERTY VALUATION OF THE LAI FUNG GROUP

APPENDIX III

Source of Information

We have relied to a considerable extent on the information given to us by the Lai Fung Group and the legal opinion of the Lai Fung Group’s PRC legal advisers. We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Lai Fung Group and/or its PRC legal advisers which is material to the valuation. We have accepted advice given by the Lai Fung Group on such matters as planning approvals or statutory notices, easements, tenure, completion date of buildings, particulars of occupancy, tenancy summaries, joint-venture agreements, development schemes, construction costs, site and floor areas. Dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuation reports attached are based on information provided to us and are therefore only approximations. We have not been able to carry out on-site measurements to verify the correctness of site and floor areas of the properties. We have exercised our due diligence in verifying the provided site and floor areas by checking against the relevant documents provided. Meanwhile, for the remaining portion of the properties without relevant supporting documents, we have further assumed that the site and floor areas shown on the documents handed to us are correct. We were also advised by the Lai Fung Group that no material facts have been omitted from the information provided.

Inspection and Structural Condition

We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the interior of the properties. The inspection was carried out by our Ocean Ruan, Jun Wang and Beny Chan in June 2018. However, we have not carried out investigations on site to determine the suitability of the ground conditions and the services, etc for any future development. Our valuations are prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory. Moreover, no structural survey has been made, but in the course of our inspection, we did not note any serious defects. We are not, however, able to report that the properties are free from rot, infestation or any other structural defects, nor were any tests carried out to any of the services.

Identity of Property to be valued

We exercised reasonable care and skill (but will not have an absolute obligation to the Lai Fung Group) to ensure that the properties, identified by the property addresses in the instructions, are the properties inspected by us and contained within our valuation reports.

Environmental Issues

We are not environmental specialists and therefore we have not carried out any scientific investigations of sites or buildings to establish the existence or otherwise of any environmental contamination, nor have we undertaken searches of public archives to seek evidence of past activities that might identify potential for contamination. In the absence of appropriate investigations and where there is no apparent reason to suspect potential for contamination, our valuation is prepared on the assumption that the properties are unaffected. Where contamination is suspected or confirmed, but adequate investigation has not been carried out and made available to us, then the valuations will be qualified.

Remarks

In our valuation, Knight Frank has prepared the valuation based on information and data available to us as at the valuation date. It must be recognised that the real estate market is subject to market fluctuations, while changes in policy direction and social environment could be immediate and have sweeping impact on the real estate market. It should therefore be noted that any market violation, policy and social changes or other unexpected incidents after the valuation date may affect the values of the properties.

According to the information provided by the Lai Fung Group, the potential tax liability which would arise on the disposal of property interest of Group V in Hong Kong is mainly stamp duty, normally borne by the purchaser and property interests of Groups I, II, III and IV in the PRC are mainly PRC land appreciation tax (at progressive rates from 30% to 60% on the appreciation amount) and PRC corporate income tax (at 25% on the gain).
