ISSUE MANDATE AND SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE
The Directors propose to seek the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM by way of passing an ordinary resolution for granting the general mandates to the Directors (i) to allot, issue and otherwise deal with new Shares not exceeding 20% of the number of Shares of the Company in issue as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution and the extension of the aforesaid mandate by addition thereto the number of Shares bought back pursuant to the proposed general mandate for the buy back of Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution as described below, and (ii) to buy back Shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the passing of the relevant resolution, at any time during the period ending on the earlier of the date of the next annual general meeting, the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by law or the Articles or the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in the general meeting of the Company.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of Shares in issue was 14,964,442,519 Shares. On the basis that there is no change in the total number of issued Shares between the Latest Practicable Date and the AGM, (i) the Issue Mandate in full would enable the Company to allot, issue and deal with a maximum of 2,992,888,503 Shares, and (ii) the Share Buy-back Mandate in full would enable the Company to buy back a maximum of 1,496,444,251 Shares.
The purpose of the general mandate to allot, issue and deal with new Shares is to enable the Directors to capture right timing of the securities market to widen the capital base of the Company.
An explanatory statement as required by the Listing Rules for information on the Share Buy-back Mandate is set out in Appendix I to this circular.
GENERAL MANDATE TO GRANT OPTIONS
The Company is a company incorporated in Hong Kong. Under section 141 of the Companies Ordinance, directors of a company shall not, without shareholders’ prior approval in general meeting or such approval expires at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting after the approval was given, allot new shares or grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert any security into shares in the company. Therefore, the Shareholders’ approval given at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 31 May 2017 will expire at the conclusion of the AGM and the Directors propose to seek the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM to grant to the Directors an unconditional mandate to grant Share Options under the Share Option Scheme.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 11 April 2017, the Shareholders have approved the refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit, to authorise the Directors to grant Share Options under the Share Option Scheme to subscribe up to 1,496,444,251 shares, representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the passing of the resolution. The Company granted an aggregate of 371,350,000 Share Options to subscribe for a total of 371,350,000 shares to eligible participants on 28 April 2017. Assuming that the Option Mandate is approved at the AGM, the Directors will be authorised to grant options to subscribe for up to a maximum of 1,125,094,251 Shares under the refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit.

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 Share Buy-back Mandate.
SHARE BUY-BACK MANDATE
The following is the explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the Listing Rules relating to an ordinary resolution to be proposed at the AGM to approve a general and unconditional mandate to be given to the Directors to exercise the powers of the Company to buy back, at any time until the next annual general meeting of the Company or such earlier period as stated in the ordinary resolution, shares of the Company, up to a maximum of 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution.
The Directors believe the Share Buy-back Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders, and accordingly recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of the relevant resolution to be proposed at the AGM.
SHARES IN ISSUE
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of Shares in issue was 14,964,442,519 Shares. Subject to the passing of an ordinary resolution for the grant of the Share Buyback Mandate and on the basis that there is no change in the total number of Shares in issue prior to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Share Buy-back Mandate to buy back a maximum of 1,496,444,251 Shares.
REASONS FOR BUY BACK
The Directors consider that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors to buy back Shares on the market. Such buy back may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and its assets and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such buy back will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.
FUNDING OF THE BUY BACK
Buying back of Shares will be funded entirely from funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles and the applicable laws of Hong Kong. It is presently proposed that any Shares bought under the Share Buy-back Mandate would be bought out of the capital paid up on the repurchased Shares, profits of the Company which would otherwise be available for distribution or the Company’s share premium account.

APPENDIX I
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
IMPACT ON WORKING CAPITAL
There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital requirements or gearing levels of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in its audited financial statements contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2017) in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Buy-back Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.
UNDERTAKING
The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the powers of the Company to make buy-back pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Hong Kong.
None of the Directors, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, nor any of their respective close associates, having any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate is granted.
No core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell to the Company or its subsidiaries any of his/her Shares, or has undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Share Buy-back Mandate is granted.
TAKEOVERS CODE AND SHARE BUY BACKS
In the event that the exercise of the power to buy back Shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or a 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 Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, Pohua JT Private Equity Fund L.P. and its associates were interested in 9,286,301,000 Shares, representing 62.06% of the total number of Shares. If the Share Buy-back Mandate is exercised in full, the interest of Pohua JT Private Equity Fund L.P. in the Company would increase to 68.95%, and will not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory general offer under Rule 26.1 of the Takeovers Code.
The Directors have no present intention to exercise the power to buy back Shares pursuant to the Share Buy-back Mandate to such extent that the aggregate amount of Shares in public hands would fall below the minimum requirement for public hands under the Listing Rules of 25%.
