NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide the Shareholders with all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolutions mentioned herein which will be dealt with at the Annual General Meeting to be held at Concord Room, 8th Floor, Renaissance Harbour View Hotel Hong Kong, 1 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong on Monday, 8 June 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (or so soon thereafter as the annual general meeting of HKC convened for 10:15 a.m. on the


LETTER FROM THE BOARD

same date shall have been concluded or adjourned) and to convene the Annual General Meeting, notice of which is set out on pages 38 to 45 of this circular.

At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to grant the Directors a general mandate to issue Shares and a general mandate to buy-back Shares, since the previous general mandates granted to the Directors at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 23 June 2025 will expire on conclusion of the Annual General Meeting. In accordance with the Listing Rules, all proposed buy-back of securities by the Company must be approved by the Shareholders in general meeting by way of ordinary resolution, either granting a general mandate or specific approval of a particular transaction. An explanatory statement as required by the Listing Rules containing all the information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution set out in the AGM Notice approving the grant of a mandate to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to buy-back Shares is set out in the section headed "General Mandate to Buy-back Shares" below. Resolutions will also be proposed to re-elect the retiring Directors. It will also be proposed at the Annual General Meeting as a special resolution that the Articles of Association be amended. This circular sets out such information in relation to the proposed mandates to issue and buy-back Shares, details of the re-election of retiring Directors, the re-appointment of auditor, the proposed amendments to the Articles of Association and the AGM Notice.

GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution, as set out in the AGM Notice, will be proposed which, if passed, will give the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares representing up to 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting. In addition, conditional upon the proposed resolution to authorise the buy-back of Shares as is more particularly described under the section headed "General Mandate to Buy-back Shares" being passed, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to authorise the Directors to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares up to an amount equal to the total number of issued Shares purchased under the authority to buy-back subject to a maximum number equivalent to 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting. The general mandate to issue Shares will be valid for the period from the date of passing the ordinary resolutions as set out in paragraphs 4A and 4C of the AGM Notice (the "Ordinary Resolutions 4A and 4C"), until whichever is 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 is required by any applicable law of Hong Kong or the Articles of Association to be held; and (iii) the authority set out in Ordinary Resolutions 4A and 4C being revoked or varied by way of ordinary resolution of the Company in general meeting. Such number of Shares referred to above shall, where applicable, be adjusted in the event that the Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolutions are, at any time thereafter, converted into a larger or smaller number of Shares.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

GENERAL MANDATE TO BUY-BACK SHARES

Explanatory Statement

General information

At the Annual General Meeting, an ordinary resolution, as set out in the AGM Notice, will be proposed which, if passed, will give the Directors a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all the powers of the Company to buy-back issued Shares subject to the criteria set out in this circular. In particular, Shareholders should note that the maximum number of Shares that may be bought-back pursuant to such mandate will be limited to such number of Shares representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution at the Annual General Meeting. For your information, as at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 918,691,271 Shares in issue. On the basis of this figure and assuming no further Shares are issued or bought-back prior to the Annual General Meeting, not more than 91,869,127 Shares may be bought-back on the Stock Exchange by the Company during the proposed purchase period pursuant to the general mandate proposed to be granted at the Annual General Meeting. The buy-back mandate will be valid for the period from the date of passing the ordinary resolution as set out in paragraph 4B of the AGM Notice (the "Ordinary Resolution 4B"), until whichever is 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 is required by any applicable law of Hong Kong or the Articles of Association to be held; and (iii) the authority set out in Ordinary Resolution 4B being revoked or varied by way of ordinary resolution of the Company in general meeting. Such number of Shares referred to above shall, where applicable, be adjusted in the event that the Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution are, at any time thereafter, converted into a larger or smaller number of Shares.

While it is not possible to anticipate in advance any specific circumstance in which the Directors might think it appropriate to buy-back Shares, the Directors believe that the grant of a general mandate to buy-back Shares would provide more flexibility and be beneficial to the Company. The exercise of the buy-back mandate to buy-back Shares may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements of the Company at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or earnings per Share. Shareholders can be assured that the Directors would only make such buy-backs in circumstances where the Directors consider to be in the interests and for the benefit of the Company and its Shareholders. On the basis of the consolidated financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2025 (being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been made up) and in particular the working capital or gearing position of the Company at that time and the number of Shares in issue at present, there may be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company in the event that the proposed buy-backs were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed buy-back period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the buy-back mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company unless the proposed buy-backs are on terms favourable to the Company.

  • 5 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Company is empowered by the Articles of Association to buy-back its Shares. The Company proposes to make the buy-backs out of distributable profits or other funds which shall be legally permitted to be utilised for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association and the Companies Ordinance.

Directors, their close associates and core connected persons

None of the Directors nor, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, any close associates of any of the Directors have any present intention, in the event that the resolution as set out in the AGM Notice is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Shares to the Company.

No core connected persons of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor have they undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the Company is authorised to make buy-backs of Shares.

Listing Rules

The Directors will exercise the power of the Company to make buy-backs pursuant to the proposed resolution set out in the AGM Notice and in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of Hong Kong and the regulations set out in the Articles of Association.

Code on Takeovers and Mergers

If, on the exercise of the power to buy-back Shares in accordance with the resolution set out in the AGM Notice, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby may in certain circumstances become obliged to make a mandatory offer for Shares in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, Lippo Capital Limited ("Lippo Capital") was beneficially interested in 672,555,056 Shares, representing approximately 73.20% of the total number of issued Shares. In the event that the Directors exercised in full the power to buy-back Shares in accordance with the terms of the relevant ordinary resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting, the shareholding of Lippo Capital in the Company would be increased to approximately 81.34% and such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a general offer for Shares under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors are not aware of any obligation which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any buy-back of its Shares by the Company.

  • 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Directors have no intention to exercise the buy-back mandate to such extent as would cause the public float to fall below 25% or such other minimum percentage as prescribed by the Listing Rules from time to time.

Miscellaneous

During the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date, no Shares were bought-back by the Company.

During each of the twelve months immediately preceding and up to the Latest Practicable Date, the highest and lowest traded prices for Shares on the Stock Exchange were as set out in Appendix I.

Neither the explanatory statement nor the proposed general mandate to buy-back shares has any unusual features.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

In accordance with Article 112 of the Articles of Association, Mr. Brian Riady, Dr. Stephen Riady and Mr. Victor Ha Kuk Yung will retire from office by rotation at the Annual General Meeting. Mr. Victor Ha Kuk Yung has informed the Board that he will not offer himself for re-election as a Director at the Annual General Meeting due to his retirement plan. Mr. Brian Riady and Dr. Stephen Riady, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election.

The Board, after the evaluation and recommendation by the nomination committee of the Company in accordance with the Directors' nomination policy of the Company, recommends the Shareholders to approve the re-election of Mr. Brian Riady and Dr. Stephen Riady as a Director at the Annual General Meeting.
