CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

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 GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

At the AGM, it will be proposed, by way of ordinary resolution, that the Directors be given a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with new Shares in the capital of the Company up to a maximum of 187,145,600 Shares, representing 20% of the aggregate nominal amount of the share capital of the Company in issue as at the date of passing of the ordinary resolution. In addition, it is further proposed, by way of a separate ordinary resolution, that the Issue Mandate be extended by adding the number of Shares that may be purchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the AGM, it will also be proposed, by way of ordinary resolution, that the Directors be given a general unconditional mandate to repurchase Shares not exceeding 10% of the aggregate nominal amount of the share capital of the Company in issue as at the date of passing such resolution.

An explanatory statement containing all relevant information relating to the Repurchase Mandate and pursuant to the GEM Listing Rules, in particular rule 13.08, is set out in the Appendix I to this circular. The information in the explanatory statement is intended to provide you with the information reasonably necessary to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolutions relating to the Repurchase Mandate.

RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

According to Article 108A, at each annual general meeting one-third of the Directors for the time being (or if their number is not a multiple of the three, the number nearest to but not exceeding one-third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that no Director holding office as chairman and/or the managing director shall be subject to retirement by rotation or be taken into account in determining the number of Directors to retire. Article 108B further provides that a retiring Director shall be eligible for re-election and any Directors so to retire shall be subject to retirement by rotation who have been longest in office since their last re-election or appointment.

In accordance with the Articles of Association, Dr. Lee Peng Fei, Allen and Mr. Kam Hau Choi, Anthony will retire from office and, be eligible to offer themselves for re-election at the AGM.

Details of the retiring Directors who are proposed to be re-elected at the AGM are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

ADOPTION OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

In light of that the Existing Share Option Scheme will be terminated by 2012, the Board proposes to adopt the New Share Option Scheme for the Company and to terminate the Existing Share Option Scheme (without prejudice to the rights and benefits of and attached to all those Option(s), if any, granted under the Existing Share Option Scheme which are outstanding) subject to the approval of the Shareholders.

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The total issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date is HK$9,357,280 divided into 935,728,000 Shares. Assuming that there is no change in the issued share capital between the period from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the adoption of the New Share Option Scheme, the number of Shares which may fall to be allotted and issued upon exercise in full of New Share Option Scheme would be 93,572,800, representing approximately 10% of the Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, which is within the overall limit of 30% prescribed under rule 23.03(3) of the GEM Listing Rules.

Existing Share Option Scheme

The Existing Share Option Scheme has also been adopted by the Company on 8 August 2002 under which the Directors may at their discretion grant options to eligible participants to subscribe for Shares in the Company subject to the terms and conditions stipulated in the Existing Share Option Scheme.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 9,900,000 Options granted under the Existing Share Option Scheme were outstanding.

Termination of the Existing Share Option Scheme

Under the terms of the Existing Share Option Scheme, the Company may at any time by ordinary resolution in general meeting terminate the operation of the Existing Share Option Scheme. It is proposed that the Existing Share Option Scheme is to be terminated upon adoption of the New Share Option Scheme subject to approval of the Shareholders.

Upon termination of the Existing Share Option Scheme, no further Options can be offered thereunder but the provisions of the Existing Share Option Scheme shall remain in all other respects in full force and effect in respect of any Options granted prior to such termination but not yet exercised at the time of termination. The Directors confirm that prior to the AGM, they will not grant any options under the Existing Share Option Scheme.

New Share Option Scheme

The purpose of the New Share Option Scheme is to enable the Company to grant Options to the Participants in order to recognize and motivate the contribution of the employees of the Group and to provide incentives and help the Group in retaining its existing employees and recruiting additional employees and to provide them with a direct economics interest in attaining the long term business objectives of the Group.

The rules of the New Share Option Scheme provide that the Company may specify the Participants to whom Options shall be granted, the number of Shares subject to each Option and the date on which the Options shall be granted. The basis for determining the subscription price is also specified precisely in the rules of the New Share Option Scheme. There is no performance target specified in the New Share Option Scheme. The Directors consider that the aforesaid criteria and rules will serve to preserve the value of the Company and encourage Participant to acquire proprietary interests in the Company.

– 5 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Subject to the approval of the New Share Option Scheme by the Shareholders, a resolution will be proposed at the AGM for the Board to grant options under the New Share Option Scheme and any other schemes for the subscription of not more than 10% of the entire issued capital of the Company (excluding, for this purpose, Options which have lapsed in accordance with the terms any other share option scheme of the Group) as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution.

The Directors consider that it is not appropriate to state the value of all Options that can be granted pursuant to the New Share Option Scheme as if they had been granted on the Latest Practicable Date as a number of variables which are crucial for the calculation of the Option value have not been determined. Such variables include but not limited to the exercise price, exercise period and lock-up period (if any). The Directors believe that any calculation of the value of the Options as at the Latest Practicable Date based on a number of speculative assumptions would not be meaningful and would be misleading to Shareholders.

With respect to the operation of the New Share Option Scheme, the Company will, where applicable, comply with the relevant requirement under Chapter 23 of the GEM Listing Rules.

Conditions

The proposed adoption of the New Share Option Scheme is conditional upon:

  • (a) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting approval for the listing of and permission to deal in any Shares which may fall to be issued and allotted by the Company pursuant to the exercise of Options in accordance with the terms and conditions of the New Share Option Scheme; and

  • (b) the passing of the necessary resolution to approve and adopt the New Share Option Scheme in the AGM.

A summary of the principal terms of the New Share Option Scheme which is proposed to be approved and adopted by the Company at the AGM is set out in Appendix III to this circular on pages 14 to 22. A copy of the rules of the New Share Option Scheme is available for inspection at the head office and principal place of business of the Company in Hong Kong at Units 1005-07, Level 10, Manulife Provident Funds Place, 345 Nathan Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong during normal business hours from the date hereof up to and including the date of the AGM.

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

Reference is made to the various amendments made to the GEM Listing Rules in the past relating to, among other things, (i) rotation of Directors; (ii) notice period for general meetings; and (iii) voting by poll at general meetings.

– 6 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This is an explanatory statement given to Shareholders relating to the resolution 4B to be proposed at the AGM authorising the Repurchase Mandate. This explanatory statement contains all the information required pursuant to Rule 13.08 of the GEM Listing Rules which is set out as follows:

1. Share Capital

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 935,728,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase Shares up to a maximum of 93,572,800 Shares representing not more than 10% of the share capital of the Company in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, during the period from the date of passing of the resolution for the approval of the Repurchase Mandate up to (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or any other applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation or renewal of the Repurchase Mandate by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting, whichever occurs first.

2. Reasons for Repurchase

Although the Directors have no present intention of repurchasing the Shares, they believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders for the Directors to have general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to repurchase Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.

3. Funding of Repurchase

The Company is empowered by its memorandum and articles of association to repurchase its Shares. The Cayman Islands law provides that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant shares, or the profits that would otherwise be available for distribution by way of dividend or the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for such purpose. The amount of premium payable on redemption may only be paid out of either the profits that would otherwise be available for distribution by way of dividend or out of the share premium of the Company. Under the Cayman Islands law, the repurchased Shares will remain part of the authorised but unissued share capital.

In repurchasing any Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum and articles of association and the applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands. The Company may not purchase securities on the GEM for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange from time to time.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

There might be an adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report for the year ended 31 March 2011) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

4. Share Prices

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous twelve months before the Latest Practicable Date are as follows:

Price Per Share Price Per Share
Highest Lowest
HK$ HK$
2010
June 0.1920 0.1610
July 0.1800 0.1220
August 0.1750 0.1320

April 0.1240 0.0850
May 0.0990 0.0820
June (up to the Latest Practicable Date) 0.0910 0.0510

5. Undertaking

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the power of the Company to make purchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules, the memorandum and articles of association of the Company and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, their associates (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules), have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries under the Repurchase Mandate if such resolution is approved by the Shareholders.

No connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

6. Takeovers Code

If, as a result of a shares repurchase, a shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder’s interests, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become(s) obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeover Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the register of Shareholders maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 336 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance showed that the Company has been notified of the following interests, being 5% or more of the Company’s issued share capital:

Approximate
percentage of
Approximate shareholding if
percentage of the Repurchase
Number of existing Mandate is
Name of Shareholders Shares held shareholding exercised in full
Rax-Comm (BVI) Limited 271,102,348 28.97% 32.19%
Cheng Kwok Hung 133,628,000 14.28% 15.87%
George Roger Manho 63,142,254 6.75% 7.50%

In the event that the Directors shall exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, the total interests of the above Shareholders would be increased to approximately the respective percentages shown in the last column above and such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeover Code.

Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase shares. If the Directors exercise the Repurchase Mandate (whether in whole or in part), they will not exercise it to the extent which would result in the number of Shares being held by the public falling below the relevant minimum prescribed percentage of the Company as required by the GEM Listing Rules, which is 25% of the entire issued share capital of the Company.

7. Share repurchases made by the Company

During the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has purchased through the Stock Exchange 256,000 ordinary Shares which were then cancelled. Details of which are set out below:

Number of Price per share Price per share
ordinary shares Highest Lowest
Date of purchase repurchased HK$ HK$
25 February 2011 80,000 0.098 0.098

APPENDIX III

This appendix sets out further information of the New Share Option Scheme and also summarises the rules of the New Share Option Scheme but does not form part of nor was it intended to be, part of the New Share Option Scheme nor should it be taken as affecting the interpretation of the rules of the New Share Option Scheme:

NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

Summary of terms

The following is a summary of the principal terms of the New Share Option Scheme proposed to be approved by a resolution of the Shareholders at the AGM, notice of which is set out on pages 23 to 37 of this circular:

(a) Purpose of the New Share Option Scheme

The purpose of the New Share Option Scheme is to enable the Company to grant Options to the Participants in order to recognize and motivate the contribution of the employees of the Group and to provide incentives and help the Group in retaining its existing employees and recruiting additional employees and to provide them with a direct economics interest in attaining the long term business objectives of the Group.

(b) Administration of the New Share Option Scheme

The New Share Option Scheme shall be subject to the administration by the Board which may include a duly authorised committee thereof and the decision of the Board shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties.

(c) Grant and acceptance of Options

Subject to the terms of the New Share Option Scheme, the Board may, in its absolute discretion, invite any Participant to take up Options to subscribe for Shares at a price calculated in accordance with paragraph (d) below.

An offer of the grant of an Option shall be made to Participants in writing (and unless so made shall be invalid) in such form as the Board may from time to time determine and shall remain open for acceptance by the Participant concerned for a period of 7 days from the date upon which it is made provided that no such offer shall be open for acceptance after the earlier of the 10th anniversary of the adoption date of the New Share Option Scheme or the termination of the New Share Option Scheme or the Participant to whom such offer is made has ceased to be a Participant.

A non-refundable nominal consideration of HK$1.00 is payable by the grantee upon acceptance of an Option.

SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE NEW SHARE OPTION SCHEME

APPENDIX III

Any offer of the grant of an Option may be accepted in respect of less than the number of Shares in respect of which it is offered provided that it is accepted in such number of Shares as represents a board lot for the time being for the purpose of trading on GEM or an integral multiple thereof.

Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of an Option will be subject to all the provisions of the Articles of Association for the time being in force and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing fully paid Shares in issue on the date on which the Option is duly exercised or, if that date falls on a day when the register of members of the Company is closed, the first day of the re-opening of the register of members (the “Exercise Date”) and accordingly will entitle the holders thereof to participate in all dividends or other distributions paid or made on or after the Exercise Date other than any dividend or other distribution previously declared or recommended or resolved to be paid or made if the record date therefor shall be before the Exercise Date. A Share allotted upon the exercise of an Option shall not carry voting rights until the name of the grantee of the Option(s) has been duly entered onto the register of members of the Company as the holder thereof.

The exercise price for Shares under the New Share Option Scheme may be determined by the Board at its absolute discretion but in any event will not be less than the highest of: (i) the closing price of the Shares as stated in the daily quotations sheet of the Stock Exchange on the date of grant, which must be a Business Day; (ii) the average closing price of the Shares as stated in the daily quotations sheets of the Stock Exchange for the five Business Days immediately preceding the date of grant; (iii) the average closing price of the Shares as stated in the daily quotation sheets of the Stock Exchange for the ten Business Days immediately preceding the date of grant; and (iv) the nominal value of the Share on the date of grant.
