The gross proceeds and the net proceeds from the Subscription are estimated to be approximately HK$697.5 million and approximately HK$655 million respectively.

Completion of the Subscription is subject to fulfilment of certain conditions under the Agreement. The Subscription may or may not proceed. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.

REASONS FOR THE PLACING AND THE SUBSCRIPTION AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The Group is principally engaged in digital assets trading, brokerage, technologies and services businesses in Hong Kong and advertising business and the provision of business park area management services in the PRC.

On 15 December 2020, OSL Digital Securities Limited ( ‘‘ OSL Digital Securities ’’ ), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company was granted the Type 1 (Dealings in Securities) and Type 7 (Providing Automated Trading Services) license by the SFC to operate a regulated brokerage and automated trading service for digital assets in Hong Kong.

The Company believes that, being the first and currently, only trading platform to be licensed by the SFC to deal in virtual assets (including security tokens), OSL Digital Securities will set the highest industry standards of compliance, security, financial transparency and customer protection for virtual asset trading and safe-keeping in Hong Kong and the region. The Company expects that OSL Digital Securities will be uniquely positioned to gain market share in the growing institutional and professional client segment in the digital asset space and to serve the needs of issuers and investors in the new market for security tokens.

The Board considers that the Placing and the Subscription represent an opportunity to raise capital for the Group while broadening its shareholder base and will also strengthen the financial position of the Group for the expansion of the Group s digital assets and blockchain platform business.

The gross proceeds from the Subscription are estimated to be approximately HK$697.5 million. The net proceeds from the Subscription (after deducting all fees, costs and expenses properly incurred by the Vendor (including the Placing Agent s commission, the stamp duty, the Stock Exchange trading fee and the SFC transaction levy) to be borne by the Company, and other expenses incurred by the Company, in connection with the Placing and the Subscription) are expected to be approximately HK$655 million.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds as to (i) approximately HK$40 million for developing and enhancing platform technology of digital asset platform business; (ii) approximately HK$225 million for maintaining sufficient liquid capital to satisfy SFC license requirement of the licensed entity and the expansion of prime brokerage business; (iii) approximately HK$290 million for operating working capital including rental expenses, staff costs, marketing and IT expenses, other general expenses and professional fees; and (iv) approximately HK$100 million for potential future acquisition and general working capital of the Group.

9

The Board considers that the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable and the Placing and the Subscription are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Listing application

An application will be made by the Company to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Subscription Shares.
