LETTER FROM THE BOARD

REASONS, USE OF PROCEEDS AND FINANCIAL EFFECTS

Reasons for the Disposal and the Leaseback

Having regard to the recent property market in Hong Kong and the PRC, the Directors (including Ms. Chan who owns 100% of the Share Purchaser and is the Property Purchaser and Ms. Wong, Dickie, the daughter of Ms. Chan and the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal represents a good opportunity to realize a gain for the Share Disposal and contribute to the cashflow of the Group. The executive Directors (including Ms. Chan who owns 100% of the Share Purchaser and is the Property Purchaser and Ms. Wong, Dickie, the daughter of Ms. Chan), having experience in property investment for not less than 10 years and the Group having held each of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D for more than 10 years, also consider that the further upside potential of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D (all being industrial premises) may be limited. The leaseback of these premises pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy enable the Group continue using the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D after the Share Disposal Completion on reasonable terms, thus saving time and relocation costs for the Group.

The Group has been looking for strategic investments that would bring in attractive capital gain to it in the long term and the proceeds from the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal will put the Group in a better and more flexible position to take advantage of investment opportunities should they arise. As at the Latest Practicable Date, no such investment or negotiations for any proposed investment has been identified or entered into by the Group. The Directors (including Ms. Chan who owns 100% of the Share Purchaser and is the Property Purchaser and Ms. Wong, Dickie, the daughter of Ms. Chan and the independent non-executive Directors, after having considered the advice from Veda Capital) consider that the terms of each of the Share Disposal, the Property Disposal, the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy are made on an arm’s length basis, on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The recommendation of the independent non-executive Directors is set out in the “Letter from the Independent Board Committee” contained in this circular.

The Company will seek the approval of the Independent Shareholders by way of a poll at the SGM on the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal.

Use of proceeds from the Disposal

The estimated net proceeds from the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal are approximately HK$28,630,000 and HK$29,700,000 respectively, which are intended to be applied for the general working capital and/or other investments in the future. The Company has not earmarked how much of the net proceeds will be used for working capital and for investment purposes.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Financial effects of the Disposal

The Share Disposal is expected to realize a net gain of approximately HK$6,849,000 for the Group (taking into account the assignment of the Shareholder’s Loan), being the difference between (i) the Share Disposal Consideration of HK$29,000,000; and (ii) the estimated unaudited net asset value of Mascotte Investments as of 30 June 2007 of approximately HK$21,781,000 (together with related costs for the Share Disposal of approximately HK$370,000). Upon completion of the Share Disposal, the Group’s assets are expected to increase by approximately HK$6,849,000, the Group’s revenue is expected to decrease by approximately HK$192,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008 (assuming the Share Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007) and the Group’s expense is expected to increase by approximately HK$315,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008, representing rental payable by the Group pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy (assuming the Share Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007). Further, the Group’s administrative expenses is expected to decrease by approximately HK$840,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008, representing administrative expenses of Mascotte Investments.

The PRC Property was acquired by the Group at a cost of approximately HK$22,000,000 (plus expenses of approximately HK$500,000 incurred for the acquisition). The Property Disposal is expected to realize a net loss of approximately HK$100,000 for the Group, being the difference between (i) the Property Disposal Consideration of HK$30,000,000; and (ii)(1) the audited carrying amount of the PRC Property as at 31 March 2007 of RMB28,000,000; (2) the write off of approximately HK$1.8 million pre-paid renovation costs; and (3) related costs for the Property Disposal of approximately HK$300,000. Upon completion of the Property Disposal, the Group’s assets are expected to decrease by approximately HK$100,000. As two tenancy agreements were entered into in respect of portions of Shop Unit No. 201 effective 25 August 2007 (whilst Shop Units Nos. 202 and 203 of the PRC Property remain vacant as at the Latest Practicable Date and no revenue has been generated to the Group in respect thereof), the Group’s revenue is expected to decrease by approximately HK$278,250 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008 (assuming the Property Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007).

Source : website of Rating and Valuation Department of the Government of Hong Kong

With the majority of the HK Properties being located in private flatted factories, based on the information obtained from the website of Rating and Valuation Department of the Hong Kong Government, we plotted the graph above showing the price index for private flatted factories in Hong Kong over 10 years from July 1997 to July 2007 with the base index of 100 set at 1999. As can be seen from the graph above, the price index for private flatted factories has decreased from a level of 171.5 in July 1997 to the lowest index of 68.9 in July 2003, from which onwards, the price index gradually climbed to the latest index available and also the highest index during the last 10 years of 203.0 in July 2007. Given the price index of the private flatted factories has been on a continuous upward trend for 4 years, we concur with the Directors that Share Disposal represents a good opportunity to realize a gain for the HK Properties.

The leaseback of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy respectively enable the Group to continue using the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D after the Share Disposal Completion on reasonable terms, we concur with the Directors that such arrangements could save time and relocation costs for the Group.

As stated in the Board Letter, the Group has been looking for strategic investments that would bring in attractive capital gain to it in the long term and the proceeds from the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal will put the Group in a better and more flexible position to take advantage of investment opportunities should they arise. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Directors confirmed that no such investment or negotiations for any proposed investment has been identified or entered into by the Group.

C. Continuing Connected Transactions

According to the Hong Kong Property Review – Monthly Supplement of September 2007 obtained from the website of Rating and Valuation Department of the Hong Kong Government, the yield for flatted factories in Hong Kong in July 2007 was approximately 6.5%. The leaseback of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy respectively were entered into on 12 July 2007 for a term of 2 years commencing from 16 July 2007 with monthly rentals of HK$38,000, HK$10,000 and HK$15,000 respectively. Based on the valuation of market value of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D as at 30 June 2007 of HK$7,000,000, HK$1,895,000 and HK$2,980,000 respectively, the yield on the respective rentals are approximately 6.51%, 6.33% and 6.04% accordingly. The yield of the aggregate annual rentals of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D of HK$756,000 on the aggregate market valuations as at 30 June 2007 of the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D of HK$11,875,000 is approximately 6.37%, which is slightly lower than the yield for flatted factories in Hong Kong in July 2007 of approximately 6.5%. Further, as stated in Appendix II to the Circular, the valuer is of the opinion that the rentals for the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D are slightly lower than market rent. Based on the above, we consider that the rental value of the HK Property A, the Hong Kong Property B and the HK Property D are fair and reasonable.

The HK Property A is currently used by the Group as its head office, showroom and principal place of business in Hong Kong. The HK Property B is currently used by the Group as warehouse while the HK Property D is currently used as the Group’s branch office and warehouse. The leaseback of these properties pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy enable the Group continue using the HK Property A, the HK Property B and the HK Property D after the Share Disposal Completion on reasonable terms, thus saving time and relocation costs for the Group.

D. Financial effects on the Group

(1) Earnings

The Share Disposal is expected to realize a net gain of approximately HK$6,849,000 for the Group (taking into account the assignment of the Shareholder’s Loan), being the difference between (i) the Share Disposal Consideration of HK$29,000,000; and (ii) the estimated unaudited net asset value of Mascotte Investments as of 30 June 2007 of approximately HK$21,781,000 (together with related costs for the Share Disposal of approximately HK$370,000). The Group’s revenue is expected to decrease by approximately HK$192,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008 (assuming the Share Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007) and the Group’s expense is expected to increase by approximately

– 32 –

LETTER FROM VEDA CAPITAL

HK$315,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008, representing rental payable by the Group pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy (assuming the Share Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007. Further, the Group’s administrative expenses is expected to decrease by approximately HK$840,000 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008, representing administrative expenses of Mascotte Investments.

The Property Disposal is expected to realize a net loss of approximately HK$100,000 for the Group, being the difference between (i) the Property Disposal Consideration of HK$30,000,000; and (ii)(1) the audited carrying amount of the PRC Property as at 31 March 2007 of RMB28,000,000; (2) the write off of approximately HK$1.8 million pre-paid renovation costs; and (3) related costs for the Property Disposal of approximately HK$300,000. The Group’s revenue is expected to decrease by approximately HK$278,250 for the financial year ending 31 March 2008 (assuming the Share Disposal Completion takes place on 31 October 2007), representing rental receivable from the PRC Property.

(2) Net assets value

Upon completion of the Share Disposal, the net assets value of the Group is expected to increase by approximately HK$6,849,000 while upon completion of the Property Disposal, the net assets value of the Group is expected to decrease by approximately HK$100,000. The net effect is an increase of approximately HK$6,749,000 in net assets value of the Group.

(3) Net cash flow

The estimated net proceeds from the Share Disposal and the Property Disposal are approximately HK$28,630,000 and HK$29,700,000 respectively, which are intended to be applied for the general working capital and/or other investments in the future. The net cash flow of the Group will thus increase by approximately HK$58,330,000.

Having considered the increase in net cash flow and net asset value of the Group, we consider that the increase in the expense of Group arisen from the rentals payments pursuant to the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy to be acceptable in so far as the Company and the Independent Shareholders are concerned.

E. Recommendations

Taking into consideration of the above mentioned principal factors and reasons, we consider that, on balance, the terms of the Share Disposal Agreement, the Property Disposal Agreement and the Po Chai Building Tenancy (1), the Po Chai Building Tenancy (2) and the Wo Fung Building Tenancy are fair and reasonable so far as the Independent Shareholders are concerned and are in the interests of the Company and the Independent Shareholders as a whole.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

At the close of business on 31 July 2007, being the latest practicable date prior to the printing of this circular, the Group had outstanding borrowings of approximately HK$60 million (of which approximately HK$39 million was secured by fixed charges on certain of the Group’s properties) representing short and long term loans and trust receipt loans. In addition, the Group had outstanding at that date obligations under hire purchase contracts and finance leases of approximately HK$0.2 million.

Save as aforesaid or as otherwise disclosed herein, and apart from intra-group liabilities, the Group did not have outstanding at the close of business on 31 July 2007 any loan capital issued and outstanding or agreed to be issued, bank overdrafts, loans or other similar indebtedness, liabilities under acceptances or acceptable credits, debentures, mortgages, charges, hire purchases commitments, guarantees or other material contingent liabilities.

At Photokina, the number one trade show for photographic accessories held every 2 years in Cologne, Germany, in September 2006, the Group was able to not only introduce new models to its existing customer base but also open new accounts in the photographic accessories sector. The Group continues to foster its relationships with electronic and multimedia technology partners such as Eleksen (www.eleksen.com) and NXT (www.nxtplc.com). A presence at the Consumer Electronic Show

VALUATION REPORT

APPENDIX II

==> picture [212 x 84] intentionally omitted <==

28 September 2007

The Directors Mascotte Holdings Limited 1st Floor, Po Chai Industrial Building 28 Wong Chuk Hang Road Aberdeen Hong Kong

Dear Sirs,

Re: Valuation of property interests of Mascotte Holdings Limited in Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China.

In accordance with your instructions to value the property interests held by Mascotte Holdings Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter together referred to as the “Group”) in Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and have obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinions of the capital value of the properties as at 30 June 2007 (the “date of valuation”) for inclusion in the circular of the Company dated 28 September 2007. Our valuations undertaken herein are in compliance with Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Listing Rules.

Our valuation of each of the above property interests is our opinion of the market value which we would define as intended to mean “the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion”.

Our valuations have been made on the assumption that the owners sell the property interests on the market in their existing state without the benefit of a deferred terms contract, leaseback, joint venture, management agreement or any similar arrangement which would serve to increase the values of the properties. In addition, no account is taken of any option or pre-emptive right relating to or affecting the sale of the properties and no forced sale in any form in respect of the properties has been assumed in our valuations.

– 37 –

APPENDIX II

VALUATION REPORT

In valuing property interest no. 3, the Government lease of which expired on 30 June 1997, we have taken account of the stipulation contained in Annex III of the Joint Declaration of the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government of the People’s Republic of China on the question of Hong Kong and the New Territories Leases (Extension) Ordinance, 1988 that such a lease may be extended without premium until 30 June 2047 and that an annual rent of three per cent of the rateable value will be charged annually from the date of extension.

As at 30 June 2007, properties nos. 1 to 5 are owner-occupied whilst properties nos. 6 to 9 are tenanted. The remaining property, i.e. property no. 10 is, as at the date of valuation, vacant. However, properties nos. 1, 2 and 3 have, since 16 July 2007, been subject to sale and leaseback arrangements, particulars of which are stated in the valuation certificates in respect of these three properties. Accordingly those properties which are owner-occupied or vacant have been valued on the basis of their market values on the assumption that vacant possession will be available in the event of a sale whilst those properties which are tenanted or subject to sale and leaseback arrangements have been valued on the basis of their market values by capitalisation of the net income which are derived from the tenancies with allowance given for outgoings and, where appropriate, provisions made for reversionary income potential and having regard to market comparables wherever possible.

However, we would advise that as properties nos. 1, 2 and 3 are subject to leaseback arrangements after the date of valuation of 30 June 2007, we consider it appropriate to express our opinion on the market values of these three properties as at 16 July 2007 which is the date of commencement of the leaseback arrangements. Our opinions of value of the respective properties are shown in Note 2 in each of the valuation certificates in respect of the properties.

We are advised that a portion of property no. 10, i.e. Units A1 and A2 which have respective gross floor areas of 520 sq.m. and 275 sq.m., and which form part of Unit 201 on Level 2 of Glittery Plaza in Guangzhou, are subject to leases commencing on 25 August 2007 and expiring on 14 June 2012. The terms of the leases in respect of the aforementioned two units are as follows:

Gross Floor
Unit Area Rent Lease Term
(sq.m.) (RMB)
A1 520 8,493 25-08-2007 to 31-08-2007
36,400 01-09-2007 to 31-05-2012

APPENDIX II

VALUATION REPORT

We have relied to a considerable extent on information given by the Group and have accepted advice given to us in relation to planning approvals or statutory notices, easements, tenure, completion dates of construction of the buildings, Certificates of Real Estate Ownership, particulars of occupancy including tenancy details, floor areas, site area and other relevant matters.

With regard to the property interests in Hong Kong, (i.e. properties nos. 1 to 9), we have not been provided with copies of title and other documents relating to the properties but we have caused searched to be made at the Land Registry. However, we have not inspected the original documents to verify ownership or to ascertain the existence of any lease amendments which do not appear on the copies provided to us.

As regards the property interest in the PRC, (i.e. property no. 10), we have relied to a considerable extent on information provided to us by the Group. Whilst the majority of the documents show the ownership of the property, we however, have not inspected the original documents to verify ownership or to ascertain the existence of any lease amendments which do not appear on the copies provided to us.

All copies of documents relating to the property interests have been used as reference only. All dimensions, measurements and areas including floor areas and site area, as stated in our valuation certificate, are approximate and are based on information provided to us by the Group. Also, all floor areas and site area as shown on the copies of documents or from information supplied to us by the Group are assumed to be correct. No on-site measurements have been taken or carried out to determine the floor areas of the properties or to verify their correctness.

In preparing our valuation of the property in the PRC, (i.e. property no. 10), we have assumed that the land use right of the property is transferable and that unless otherwise stated, any premium payable has already been fully paid or will be fully paid. We have also assumed that all approvals, consents, certificates, permits and licences from the relevant Government authorities for the property have been or will be granted without any onerous conditions or undue delay which might affect the value of the property. We have relied on advice given by the Group which has advised us that it has sought legal advice from its legal advisers on PRC law, (GFE Law Office), regarding the legality and validity of the various agreements and documents relating to the property and the interest of the Group in the property. For the purpose of our valuation, we have assumed that the title in respect of the property, whether vested in the Group or pending, is legally enforceable.

We have also assumed that the Group has free and uninterrupted rights to use, assign, transfer, lease or mortgage the property in the PRC for the unexpired term of the granted lease and that all costs relating to the acquisition of the property have been paid in full.

All the information provided to us by the Group, which are pertinent to our valuation, are believed to be true and accurate and it is assumed that no material facts have been omitted from the information supplied.

APPENDIX II

VALUATION REPORT

We are instructed to express our opinions on the market value of the property interests and in the capacity of an external valuer, we have not undertaken any building survey to report on the condition or state of repair of the properties although in the course of our inspections, we did not note any serious defects. However, we must advise that we cannot express an opinion about or give advice on the condition of the uninspected parts of the properties or report on whether or not those parts of the properties which are concealed, unexposed or inaccessible are free of rot, infestation or other structural defects, whether latent or otherwise. For the purpose of our valuation, the aforesaid parts of the properties are assumed to be in a good state of repair and condition and this report should not be construed as making any implied representation or statement about the condition of such parts. None of the services in respect of the properties has been tested.

We have not arranged for any investigation to be conducted or tests to be carried out to determine whether or not any deleterious or hazardous materials have been used in the construction of the buildings accommodating the properties or forming parts of the properties, or whether such materials have since been incorporated, and we are therefore unable to report that the buildings are free from such risk. However, for the purpose of our valuation, we have assumed that should such an investigation be carried out it would not reveal the presence of any such materials to any significant extent.

No allowance has been made in our valuations for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on the property interests and neither has any allowance been made for any liability to taxation on sale or any expenses which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the properties are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their values.

In accordance with your instructions, we are required to express our opinions on the market values of all of the property interests in their respective local currencies, and that is Hong Kong Dollars for those properties in Hong Kong and in Renminbi for the property in the PRC.

We attach herewith a summary of values and our valuation certificate.

Yours faithfully,
