Your attention is drawn to the information set out in the appendices to this Circular.

Yours faithfully For and on behalf of the board of Directors of CT Holdings (International) Limited Wu Sin Wah, Eva Executive Director

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

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

1. REPURCHASE OF SECURITIES FROM CONNECTED PARTIES

The Listing Rules prohibit a company from knowingly purchasing securities on the Stock Exchange from a “connected person”, that is, a director, chief executive or substantial shareholder of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or their respective associates and a connected person is prohibited from knowingly selling his/her/its securities to the Company.

No connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company nor has any such connected person undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is passed.

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 200,000,000 fully paid Shares.

Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution for the approval of the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are to be issued or repurchased by the Company prior to the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 20,000,000 fully paid Shares.

3. REASONS FOR THE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, repurchases would be funded entirely from the Company’s available cash flow or working capital facilities which will be funds legally available under the Cayman Islands law and the memorandum and articles of association of the Company for such purpose.

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full could have a material adverse impact on the working capital and gearing position of the Company compared with that as at 31 December 2009, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated accounts. The Directors do not, however, intend to make any repurchase in circumstances that would have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

5. SHARE PRICES

6. DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company or is subsidiaries any of the Shares in the Company if the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM and exercised.

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 in accordance with the Listing Rules and applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases on the Company exercising its powers to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of Rule 32 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 become obliged to make a mandatory general offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

– 8 –

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Directors, the controlling shareholders (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company, namely Profitcharm Limited, Sinorise International Limited, Mr. Tsoi Tak and Mr. Cai Xiao Ming, David (together the “ Controlling Shareholders ”) together are entitled to exercise and/or control the exercise of 75% of the voting rights in the general meetings of the Company.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the voting rights of the Controlling Shareholders in the Company would increase to approximately 83.3%. Such increase will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 or Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors will not exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that would result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.

7. SHARES REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has repurchased any of the Company’s listed securities during the six months immediately prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
