CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher 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

ISSUE MANDATE AND EXTENSION MANDATE

At the annual general meeting held on 30 June 2016, the Shareholders of the Company passed an ordinary resolution to grant a new general mandate to the Directors to allot, issue and deal with Shares. Such new general mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM. It is therefore proposed to renew such general mandate at the AGM.

Ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Directors the Issue Mandate and the Extension Mandate. The Issue Mandate will expire at the earliest of (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 or any applicable laws to be held; or (iii) the revocation, variation or renewal of the Issue Mandate by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting, whichever occurs first. Details of the Issue Mandate and the Extension Mandate are set out in ordinary resolutions number 4 and 6 respectively in the Notice of AGM.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, a total of 565,260,855 Shares were in issue. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Issue Mandate to the Directors and on the basis that no Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Issue Mandate to issue a maximum of 113,052,171 Shares.

REPURCHASE MANDATE

Also at the annual general meeting held on 30 June 2016, the Shareholders passed an ordinary resolution to grant a new general mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares. Such new general mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM. It is therefore proposed to renew such general mandate at the AGM.

An ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate, details of which are set out in ordinary resolution number 5 in the Notice of AGM. The Repurchase Mandate will expire at the earliest of (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 or any applicable laws to be held; or (iii) the revocation, variation or renewal of the Repurchase Mandate by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the GEM Listing Rules, to provide you with requisite information for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. GEM LISTING RULES RELATING TO REPURCHASE OF SHARES

The GEM Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which the securities of the company are listed and such exchange is recognised by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong subject to certain restrictions. Among such restrictions, the GEM Listing Rules provide that the shares of such company must be fully paid up and all repurchase of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of shareholders, either by way of a general repurchase mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.

2. EXERCISE OF THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and assuming that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate, on the basis of 565,260,855 Shares in issue at the Latest Practicable Date, could result in up to 56,526,085 Shares being repurchased by the Company during the period 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 or any applicable laws to be held; or (iii) the revocation, variation or renewal of the Repurchase Mandate by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting, whichever occurs first.

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

Repurchases of Shares will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or its earnings per Share.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing 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 of the Cayman Islands. The law of the Cayman Islands provides that the amount to be repaid in connection with a share repurchase may be paid from the profits of the Company and/or the proceeds of a new issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase or out of capital, if the Company can, immediately following such payment, pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. Any premium payable on a purchase over the par value of the Shares to be purchased must be provided for out of profits of the Company or out of the Company’s share premium account. The Company may not purchase securities on 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.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

5. GENERAL

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the Company’s latest published unaudited financial statements for the first quarter ended 31 March 2017) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or on its gearing position which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise 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 and, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, none of their respective associates (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules), have any present intention, if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised, to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries.

No connected person (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or has undertaken not to sell any Shares held by him to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is granted.

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares, 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. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, 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 Takeovers Code.

Notes:

  1. As at the latest practicable date, 159,492,298 shares were beneficially owned by Mr. Chan Nap Kee (‘‘Mr. Chan’’) representing 28.22% of the issued share capital of the Company. Of these 159,492,298 shares, 2,004,000 shares were awarded to Mr. Chan Nap Kee, Joseph as Director on 30 December 2015 under the Share Award Scheme adopted since 10 May 2013.

  2. These were total number of Shares in which Mr. Chan beneficially owned as at the latest practicable date. As the spouse of Mr. Chan, Ms. Yeung Po Yee, Bonita was taken to be interested in the Shares in which Mr. Chan was interested by virtue of the SFO.

Save as disclosed above, the Directors were not aware of any other person (other than the directors and the chief executives of the Company) who, as at latest practicable date, had, or was deemed to have, interests or short positions in the Shares or underlying Shares, which would fall to be disclosed to the Company and the Stock Exchange under provisions of Divisions 2 & 3 of Part XV of the SFO.

On the above basis, the exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full would not trigger any general offer obligation under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors have no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that will result in the number of Shares in the hands of the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25%.

6. SHARE REPURCHASES BY THE COMPANY

The Company has not repurchased any of its Shares (whether on GEM or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

INDEPENDENT NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS

Mr. Liew Swee Yean

Mr. Liew Swee Yean, aged 53, is independent non-executive director, chairman of audit committee and member of nomination and corporate governance committee of the Board. Mr. Liew has over 20 years of experience in finance and general management, and is a fellow member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Mr. Liew holds a Master of Business Administration (Executive) Degree from the City University of Hong Kong. He was an independent non-executive director of Siberian Mining Company, a company listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange until 18 February 2014.

Mr. Liew’s director’s fee is fixed at HK$126,000 per annum, which is commensurate with his duties and responsibilities as an independent non-executive director of the Company and the prevailing market situation and subject to Shareholders’ approval.

Save as disclosed above, as at the latest practicable date, Mr. Liew did not have any directorships held in the last three years in public companies the securities of which are listed on any securities market in Hong Kong or overseas. He did not have any relationships with any directors, senior management, management shareholders or substantial or controlling shareholders of the Company as at the latest practicable date.

As at the latest practicable date, Mr. Liew was interested in 204,000 shares, representing approximately 0.04% of the issued share capital of the Company.

Mr. Liew has been serving the Company as an independent non-executive director for more than 9 years and hence his further appointment should be subject to a separate resolution to be approved by shareholders. In the process of assessing his independence, each of factors referred to in Rule 5.09(1) to(8) of the GEM Listing Rules has been confirmed. In line with this, the Company recognizes the continued independence of Mr. Liew under Rule 5.09 of the GEM Listing Rules. Mr. Liew has provided high standard of recommendation in relation to internal control structure and risk management systems.

– 12 –

APPENDIX II DETAILS OF RETIRING DIRECTORS PROPOSED TO BE RE-ELECTED

Being the chairman of audit committee, Mr. Liew always review and monitors the progress of management team towards suggestions given from external auditors in respect of the financial reporting and system of control. The presence of Mr. Liew is able to enhance the objective of independent communication with external auditors in the matter of internal audit function and the integrity of the Company’s quarterly, interim and annual report. The Board, therefore, believes that Mr. Liew should be re-elected to continue his role to achieve an independent true and balanced assessment and maintain a high level of compliance in financial and mandatory reporting regulations and also to secure the interest of all shareholders.

In the process of assessing his independence, each of factors referred to in Rule 5.09(1) to(8) of the GEM Listing Rules has been confirmed. In line with this, the Company recognizes the continued independence of Dr. Wong under Rule 5.09 of the GEM Listing Rules. Serving as an independent non-executive director, Dr. Wong has provided high standard of recommendation in relation to Remuneration packages to the Directors and senior management of Company. Being the chairman of Remuneration Committee, Dr. Wong has always reviewed the formal and transparent procedure for developing remuneration policy. Being familiar with the corporate value of the Group, the presence of Dr. Wong has enhanced the corporate values of the Company by his sustained development of a strong relationship with the management. The Board, therefore, believes that Dr. Wong should be re-elected to continue his role to achieve an independent true and balanced assessment and maintain a high level of compliance mandatory reporting regulations and also to secure the interest of all shareholders.
