LETTER FROM THE BOARD

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

This circular includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in this circular and confirm, having made all reasonable enquires, that to the best of their knowledge and belief, there are no other facts the omission of which would make any statement herein misleading.

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors consider that the renewal of the General Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, the re-election of Directors and the re-appointment of the auditors of the Company are in the best interests of the Company as well as its Shareholders.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This is an explanatory statement given to all Shareholders relating to a resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting for approving the Repurchase Mandate. This explanatory statement contains all the information required pursuant to Rule 10.06(1)(b) and other relevant provisions of the Listing Rules which is set out as follows:

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there was a total of 1,132,600,000 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased during the period from the Latest Practicable Date to the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 113,260,000 Shares, being 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting.

2. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to repurchase the Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets value of the Company and/or its earning per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2013 (as disclosed in its latest audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2013), the Directors consider that there would not be any material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed repurchase were to be carried out in full during the proposed repurchase period. In the circumstances, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing ratio of the Company.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

The Company is empowered by its memorandum of association and Bye-laws to repurchase its Shares. In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with its memorandum of association and Bye-laws and the laws of Bermuda. The laws of Bermuda provide that the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the paid up on the relevant shares, or the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for that purpose. The amount of premium payable on repurchase may only be paid out of either the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account of the Company before the shares are repurchased.

– 7 –

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Under the laws of Bermuda, no purchase by a company of its own shares may be effected if, on the date on which the purchase is to be effected, there are reasonable grounds for believing that the company is, or after the purchase would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. In accordance with the laws of Bermuda, the shares so repurchased would be treated as cancelled but the aggregate amount of authorised share capital would not be reduced.

4. DIRECTORS, THEIR ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates, has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted by the Shareholders.

No connected person of the Company (as defined in the Listing Rules) has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor has he/she/it undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted by the Shareholders.

5. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate and in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Bye-laws and the laws of the Bermuda.

6. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

A repurchase of Shares by the Company may result in an increase in the proportionate interests of a substantial shareholder of the Company in the voting rights of the Company, which could give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, Alliance Food and Beverages (Holding) Company Limited (“ Alliance Holding ”), a substantial shareholder of the Company, and its associates hold 722,223,587 Shares or approximately 63.77% of the issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase the Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the shareholdings of Alliance Holding and its associates in the Company would be increased to approximately 70.85% of the then issued share capital of the Company, and such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory general offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. The Company has no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent that it would give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under the Takeovers Code or result in the amount of shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

– 8 –

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
