REASONS FOR THE ADDITIONAL SECOND CPS TRANSFER AND THE THIRD CPS TRANSFER AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The Group is principally engaged in the businesses of manufacturing and trading of electric cycles, trading and distribution of liquor and wine, provision of money lending services and investments in listed securities.

As disclosed in the announcement dated 29 July 2016 of the Company, on 29 July 2016, the Group entered into the EPS Acquisition Agreement, pursuant to which the Group has conditionally agreed to acquire the entire issued share capital of Emission Particle Solution Sweden AB that is principally engaged in the development, manufacturing and distribution of a fuel additive product namely EuroAd which can reduce fuel consumption and environmental impact. Completion of the EPS Acquisition Agreement is conditional upon, among others, fund raising exercise or corporate financing with proceeds (or amount) of not less than HK$221,000,000 to be conducted by the Company having becoming unconditional. As disclosed in the announcement dated 13 September 2016 and the circular dated 7 October 2016 of the Company in relation to the First CPS Transfer, and the announcement dated 7 October 2016 of the Company in relation to the Second CPS Transfer, all of the net proceeds from the First CPS Transfer and the Second CPS Transfer will be used to settle part of the consideration of the acquisition of Emission Particle Solution Sweden AB.

The aggregate gross proceeds from the Additional Second CPS Transfer and the Third CPS Transfer will be HK$113,393,000. The aggregate net proceeds from the Additional Second CPS Transfer and the Third CPS Transfer, after deduction of the related expenses, will be approximately HK$112,893,000, representing a net transfer price of approximately HK$0.232 per Convertible Preference Share. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Additional Second CPS Transfer and the Third CPS Transfer to settle part of the consideration of the acquisition of Emission Particle Solution Sweden AB and the remaining net proceeds (if any) as general working capital of the Group.

The Directors consider that the Additional Second CPS Transfer and the Third CPS Transfer, together with the First CPS Transfer and the Second CPS Transfer, will facilitate the realisation of the Convertible Preference Shares to compensate the Group for the failure to meet the Total Net Profits in the sum of RMB300,000,000 by the 2013 Target Group and allow the Group to raise fund to satisfy part of the consideration of the acquisition under the EPS Acquisition Agreement. As such, the Directors (including the independent nonexecutive Directors) consider that the terms of the Additional Second CPS Transfer Agreement and the Third CPS Transfer Agreement are fair and reasonable, on normal commercial terms and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Upon completion of the First CPS Transfer, the Second CPS Transfer, the Additional Second CPS Transfer and the Third CPS Transfer, all the Convertible Preference Shares will have been realised by the Company.
