To the Shareholders

Dear Sir or Madam,

(1) PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION AND PROPOSED CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE; AND

(2) NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING

INTRODUCTION

As disclosed in the Announcement, the Company proposed to put forward the Share Consolidation and the Change of Board Lot Size involving: (i) consolidation of every ten (10) Existing Shares of HK$0.01 each in the issued and unissued share capital of the Company into one (1) Consolidated Share of HK$0.10 in the issued and unissued share capital of the Company subject to, among other things, approval by the Shareholders at the SGM; and (ii) change in board lot size of the Shares for trading on the Stock Exchange from 40,000 Existing Shares to 8,000 Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further information regarding, among other things, (a) the Share Consolidation; (b) the Change in Board Lot Size; and (c) the notice of SGM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION

The Board proposes to implement the Share Consolidation on the basis that every ten (10) Existing Shares of HK$0.01 each in the issued and unissued share capital of the Company be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share of HK$0.10 in the issued and unissued share capital of the Company. The Board also proposes to change the board lot size for trading from 40,000 Existing Shares to 8,000 Consolidated Shares upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there are 3,376,000,000 Existing Shares of HK$0.01 each in issue and fully paid or credited as fully paid and the Company does not have any outstanding options, warrants or securities in issue which are convertible or exchangeable into Shares. Assuming no Shares will be issued or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date up to the date of the SGM, there will be 337,600,000 Consolidated Shares of HK$0.10 each in issue and fully paid or credited as fully paid following the Share Consolidation. The authorised share capital of the Company will become HK$100,000,000 divided into 1,000,000,000 Consolidated Shares of HK$0.10 each.

Conditions of the Share Consolidation

The implementation of the Share Consolidation is conditional upon:

  • (i) the passing of the necessary ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM to approve the Share Consolidation;

  • (ii) the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective; and

  • (iii) the compliance with all relevant procedures and requirements under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda to effect the Share Consolidation.

Status of the Consolidated Shares

Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects with each other and the Share Consolidation will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

Listing application

Application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective. No part of the securities of the Company is listed or dealt in or on which listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought on any other stock exchange. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Consolidated Shares to be admitted into the CCASS established and operated by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in

– 6 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

CCASS on the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. The Share Consolidation will be conducted in accordance with the Bye-laws.

PROPOSED CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Existing Shares are currently traded in board lot size of 40,000 Existing Shares. The Board proposes that, upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the board lot size of the Consolidated Shares for trading on the Stock Exchange will be changed to 8,000 Consolidated Shares.

Based on the closing price of HK$0.055 per Existing Share (equivalent to HK$0.55 per Consolidated Share) as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date, the board lot value is HK$2,200 in the current board lot size of 40,000 Existing Shares, and HK$4,400 in the proposed new board lot size of 8,000 Consolidated Shares.

The Change in Board Lot Size will not, by itself, affect any of the rights of Shareholder. As from Wednesday, 7 January 2015, any new share certificate will be issued in board lots of 8,000 Consolidated Shares each (except for odd lots or where the Registrar is other instructed).

REASONS FOR THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION AND THE CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

The proposed Share Consolidation will increase the nominal value of the Shares and reduce the total number of Shares currently in issue. As such, the transaction and handling costs of the Company in relation to the dealing in the Consolidated Shares are expected to be reduced, which will be beneficial to the Company. Moreover, as the market value of each board lot upon the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size becoming effective will be higher than the market value of each existing board lot, the transaction cost as a proportion of the market value of each board lot will be lowered. It is expected that the liquidity in trading of the Shares will increase accordingly and the market value of the Shares will more precisely reflect the intrinsic value of the Company. Accordingly, the Board is of the view that the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size is beneficial to the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

Other than the expenses to be incurred by the Company in relation to the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size, the implementation thereof will not, by itself, affect the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Group or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders as a whole, save for any fractional Consolidated Share which may arise.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

OTHER ARRANGEMENTS

Odd lot trading arrangement

Fractional Consolidated Shares will be disregarded and will not be issued to Shareholders but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold and retained for the benefits of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Consolidated Shares regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.

In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) of the Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size, the Company has appointed Kingston Securities Limited to provide matching service regarding the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares at the relevant market price per Consolidated Share for Shareholders, on a best effort basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full board lot, or to dispose of their holding of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares, during the period from Wednesday, 21 January 2015 to Tuesday, 10 February 2015 (both days inclusive). Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares may contact Ms. Rosita Kiu of Kingston Securities Limited at Suite 2801, 28/F, One International Finance Centre, 1 Harbour View Street, Central, Hong Kong at (852) 2298-6215 during office hours in the aforesaid period.

Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares should note that successful matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares are not guaranteed. If any Shareholder is in doubt about the odd lot trading arrangement, such Shareholder should consult his/her/its own professional advisers.

Exchange of Share Certificates

Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, which is currently expected to be on Wednesday, 7 January 2015, being the business day immediately after the date of the SGM. Shareholders may during the business hours, on or after Wednesday, 7 January 2015 and until Friday, 13 February 2015 (both days inclusive) submit their share certificates in peach for the Existing Shares to the Registrar to exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new share certificates in green for the Consolidated Shares on the basis of every ten (10) Existing Shares for one (1) Consolidated Share, without any fractional Consolidated Share.

Shareholders should note that after the prescribed time for free exchange of share certificates, a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may from time to time be allowed by the Stock Exchange) will be payable by the Shareholders to the Registrar for exchange of share certificates.

Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, with effect from Wednesday, 7 January 2015, trading will only be effected in the Consolidated Shares, the share certificates of which will be issued in green colour. The existing share certificates in peach for the Existing Shares will cease to be valid for trading and settlement purpose, but will remain valid and effective as documents of title.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

WARNING

Shareholders and potential investors should be aware of and take note that the Share Consolidation is conditional upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set out in the paragraph headed ‘‘Conditions of the Share Consolidation’’ above in this circular, and the Change in Board Lot Size is conditional upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective. Accordingly, the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares, and if they are in any doubt about their position, they should consult their professional advisers.

SGM

The Share Consolidation will be conditional, among other matters, upon the passing by the Shareholders of the ordinary resolution at the SGM.

The SGM will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 6 January 2015 at 3/F, Nexxus Building, 77 Des Voeux Road Central, Hong Kong, the notice of which is, set out on pages 11 to 12 of this circular, for the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, to approve the resolution in respect of the Share Consolidation.

In compliance with the Listing Rules, the resolution will be voted on by way of a poll at the SGM. To the best of the Director’s knowledge, information and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting on the resolution to be proposed at the SGM.

A form of proxy for use at the SGM is enclosed with this circular. In order to be valid, the enclosed form of proxy, together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed must be delivered to the offices of the Registrar as soon as possible but in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding the SGM or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the enclosed form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the SGM or any adjournment thereof should you so wish.

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.
