LETTER FROM THE BOARD

2. GENERAL MANDATE

In order to ensure flexibility and give discretion to the Directors, in the event that it becomes desirable for the Company to issue any new Shares, approval is to be sought from the Shareholders, pursuant to the Listing Rules, for the General Mandate to issue Shares. At the AGM, the ordinary resolution No. 4(A) will be proposed to grant the Directors the General Mandate to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with the additional Shares not exceeding 20% of the number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution granting the General Mandate (including any sale or transfer of Treasury Shares out of the treasury).

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 950,000,000 Shares of the Company have been issued and fully paid. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution No. 4(A) and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the AGM, the Company will be allowed to issue (or transfer from the treasury) a maximum of 190,000,000 Shares.

In addition, subject to a separate approval of the ordinary resolution No. 4(C), the number of the Shares that may be repurchased by the Company under the ordinary resolution No. 4(B) will also be added to extend the limit of the General Mandate as mentioned in the ordinary resolution No. 4(A) provided that such additional amount shall not exceed 10% of the number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing the resolutions in relation to the General Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate. The Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plans to issue any new securities of the Company pursuant to the General Mandate.

3. REPURCHASE MANDATE

At the AGM, the ordinary resolution No. 4(B) will be proposed to grant the Directors the Repurchase Mandate to exercise all the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares representing up to 10% of the number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of the resolution in relation to the Repurchase Mandate.

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the proposed Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular. This explanatory statement contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the relevant resolution at the AGM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

4. RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

In accordance with Article 84 of the Articles of Association, Mr. TANG Shun Lam, Mr. YANG Herong and Mr. TIAN Min shall retire from office by rotation at the AGM and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election at the AGM.

Details of the above retiring Directors who are subject to re-election at the AGM are set out in Appendix I to this circular in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Listing Rules.

The nomination committee of the Company (the "Nomination Committee") has reviewed the structure and composition of the Board, the confirmations and disclosures given by the retiring Directors, the skills, experience, expertise, time commitment and contribution of the retiring Directors, with reference to the nomination principles and criteria set out in the Company's board diversity policy and director nomination policy, as well as the Company's corporate strategy.

Given the background and working experience of the retiring Directors, the Nomination Committee and the Board take the view that they will continue to bring valuable experience, knowledge and expertise and contribute to the Board's efficiency, effectiveness and diversity. In this regard, the Nomination Committee and the Board recommend the re-election of all the retiring Directors who are due to retire at the AGM.

5. NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Set out on pages 16 to 21 of this circular is the notice of the AGM containing, inter alia, the ordinary resolutions to be proposed to the Shareholders for consideration and approval in relation to the granting to the Directors of the General Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate and the re-election of the retiring Directors.

6. CLOSURE OF REGISTER OF MEMBERS

To ascertain Shareholders' eligibility to attend and vote at the AGM, the register of members of the Company will be closed from Monday, 2 June 2025 to Thursday, 5 June 2025, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares will be effected. In order to be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM, all transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates and properly completed and signed transfer forms must be lodged with the branch share registrar of the Company in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at Shops 1712-1716, 17th Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong for registration no later than 4:30 p.m. on Friday, 30 May 2025.

7. PROXY FORM

A proxy form for use at the AGM is enclosed. Such proxy form is also published on the website of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk). Whether you intend to attend the AGM or not, you are requested to complete the accompanying proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible but in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the AGM (i.e. before 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 3 June 2025) or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude the Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the AGM should they so wish, in which case, the proxy form will be deemed to be revoked.

8. VOTING BY POLL

To the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Shareholders have any material interests in the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM. Therefore, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolutions. For the avoidance of doubt, holders of Treasury Shares, if any, shall abstain from voting at the AGM in connection to such Treasury Shares.

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules and Article 66(1) of the Articles of Association, any vote of the Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except the sincere decision of the chairman of the general meeting to allow resolutions relating only to procedural or administrative matters to be voted by show of hands.

Accordingly, each of the resolutions set out in the notice of the AGM will be taken by way of poll. On a poll, every Shareholder present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative shall have one vote for every fully paid Share of which he/she is the holder. A Shareholder entitled to have more than one vote on a poll need not use all his/her votes or cast all the votes he/she uses in the same way.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The following is an explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules in connection with the proposed Repurchase Mandate.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of issued Shares was 950,000,000 Shares of nominal value of HK$0.01 each which have been fully paid. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 95,000,000 Shares which represent 10% of the number of issued Shares (excluding any Treasury Shares) during the period ending on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiry of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by any applicable laws or the Articles of Association to be held; or (iii) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders in general meeting of the Company revoking or varying such mandate.

REASONS FOR AND FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase its Shares in the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the Company's net asset value and/or its earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Repurchase of the Shares must be funded out of funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. The Directors shall not repurchase the Shares on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or by a method of payment not specified in the trading rules of the Stock Exchange. Subject to the foregoing, the Directors may make repurchases with profits of the Company or out of the proceeds from a fresh issue of Shares made for the purposes of the repurchase or, if authorized by the Articles of Association and subject to the Cayman Islands Companies Act, out of capital and, in the case of any premium payable on the repurchase, out of profits of the Company or from sums standing to the credit of the share premium account of the Company or, if authorized by the Articles of Association and subject to the Cayman Islands Companies Act, out of capital.

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares and they would only exercise the power to repurchase in circumstances where they consider that the repurchase would be in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. The Directors believe that if the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full, it may not have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, as compared with the positions disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as at 31 December 2024, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company were made up. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or its gearing levels which, in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

---

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

GENERAL

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Shares to the Company.

The Directors will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Articles of Association and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, so far as the same may be applicable. Neither this explanatory statement nor the proposed share repurchase has any unusual features.

No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he or she has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Company may, subject to market conditions and the Group's capital management needs at the relevant time of the repurchases, cancel the repurchased Shares or hold them as Treasury Shares.

For any Treasury Shares deposited with CCASS pending resale on the Stock Exchange, the Company shall: (i) procure its broker not to give any instructions to HKSCC to vote at the general meetings for the Treasury Shares deposited with CCASS; (ii) in the case of dividends or distributions, withdraw the Treasury Shares from CCASS, and either re-register them in its own name as Treasury Shares or cancel them, in each case before the relevant record date for the dividend or distributions; or take any other measures to ensure that it will not exercise any Shareholders' rights or receive any entitlements which would otherwise be suspended under the applicable laws if those Shares were registered in its own name as Treasury Shares.

TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequences which would arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

In the event that the Directors shall exercise the Repurchase Mandate in full and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the interests to be held by the above-mentioned Shareholders will be increased to the percentages as set out in the table above. Such increase, in the opinions of the Directors, may give rise to an obligation on the part of Great World Glory Pte. Ltd. to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. The Directors have no present intention to repurchase the Shares to the extent that will trigger the obligations under the Takeovers Code for Great World Glory Pte. Ltd. to make a mandatory offer.

The Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase on the Stock Exchange if the result of the repurchase would be that less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Stock Exchange) of the total number of issued Shares of the Company would be in public hands. The Directors do not propose to repurchase Shares which would result in less than the prescribed minimum percentage of Shares in public hands.

SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchases of Shares have been made by the Company during the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).

SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange during the 12 months prior to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:
