CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized 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.
Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, 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.

APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the GEM Listing Rules, 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 ordinary resolution to approve the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.
1. GEM LISTING RULES RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE OF SHARES
The GEM Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their securities on the Stock Exchange and any other stock exchange on which 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 repurchases of shares by such company must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of shareholders, either by way of a general mandate or by specific approval of a particular transaction.
2. SHARE CAPITAL
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were a total of 400,000,000 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 40,000,000 Shares, representing 10% of the aggregate nominal value of the issued share capital of the Company during the period prior to (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of the resolution referred to herein; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the Company is required by any applicable Cayman Islands laws or the Articles to hold its next annual general meeting; or (iii) the date upon which the Repurchase Mandate is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting of the Company, whichever occurs first.
3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES
The Directors believe that the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of 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 per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.
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 applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Company’s memorandum and Articles for such purpose.
– 10 –
APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
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 2017, 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.
5. SHARE PRICES
The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous calendar months since the Listing Date on GEM were as follows:
| Highest | Lowest | |
|---|---|---|
| HK$ | HK$ | |
| 2018 | ||
| January (since Listing Date) | 1.300 | 0.550 |
| February | 0.630 | 0.450 |
| March | 0.650 | 0.455 |
| April (up to the Latest Practicable Date) | 0.495 | 0.400 |
6. DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS OF DIRECTORS, THEIR ASSOCIATES AND CONNECTED PERSONS
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 its subsidiaries any of the Shares in the Company if the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM and exercised.
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 and no such person has undertaken not to sell any Shares held by him/her/it to the Company, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM by the Shareholders.
7. 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 in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules and applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.
– 11 –
APPENDIX II
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON THE REPURCHASE MANDATE
8. TAKEOVERS CODE CONSEQUENCE
If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases upon 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 offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.
To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquires, they are not aware of any consequence which will give rise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchases made under the Repurchase Mandate.
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%.
9. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY
No repurchases of Shares have been made by the Company (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months immediately prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
