Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME AND NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 2 June 2015 in relation to the Change of Company Name.
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information relating to the Change of Company Name and to give you notice of the SGM.
* For identification purpose only

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME
The Board proposes to change the English name of the Company from “Mission Capital Holdings Limited” to “Skyway Securities Group Limited” and, for identification purpose only, to adopt “天順證券集團有限公司” as the Chinese name of the Company to replace “保興資本控股有限公司”.
Conditions
The proposed Change of Company Name will be subject to the following conditions:–
-
(i) the passing of a special resolution by the shareholders of the Company at the SGM to approve the Change of Company Name; and
-
(ii) the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda granting approval for the use of new English name by the Company.
Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set out above, the proposed Change of Company Name will take effect from the date on which the Registrar of Companies enters the Company’s new English name on the register maintained by the Registrar of Companies. The Company will then comply with the necessary filing procedures in Hong Kong.
Reasons for the Change of Company Name
Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 11 May 2015 in relation to the Company’s proposed acquisition of Skyway Securities and Skyway Futures. The Group intends to develop its business in the financial services sector and it is contemplated by the Company that Skyway Securities and Skyway Futures will play a major role in this business segment. The Board therefore believes that the new English and Chinese names of the Company will provide the Group with a new corporate image and will better reflect the Group’s future business development. Therefore, the Board considers that the proposed Change of Company Name is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Reference is made to announcement of the Company dated 15 June 2015, at which the Directors originally decided to coincide the publication of this circular and the SGM for the proposed Change of Company Name with that of the circular and SGM for the Proposed Major Acquisitions. However on reflection, the Directors have now decided that the relationship with the Skyway Group is of great importance and would like to cement this relationship with the proposed Change of Company Name as early as possible.
Effects of the proposed Change of Company Name
The proposed Change of Company Name will not, by itself, affect any of the rights of the Shareholders. Save for the change of stock short name to be announced by the Company, the trading arrangements for the shares of the Company on the Stock Exchange will not be affected. All existing share certificates of the Company in issue bearing the Company’s existing name shall continue to be evidence of legal title to the Shares and valid for trading, settlement, registration and delivery purposes. Accordingly, there will not be any arrangement for free exchange of existing share certificates of the Company for new share certificates under the new name of the Company. Upon the proposed Change of Company Name becoming effective, all new share certificates will be issued in the new name of the Company.
SGM
A notice convening the SGM of the Company to be held at Plaza I-II, Lower Lobby, Novotel Century Hong Kong, 238 Jaffe Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong at 9:30 a.m. on Monday, 10 August 2015 is set out on pages 7 to 8 of this circular.
Whether or not you intend to attend the SGM, you are requested to complete and return the form of proxy enclosed with this circular in accordance with the instructions printed thereon to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited, at Level 22, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong as soon as possible, but in any event, not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the time appointed for holding the SGM or any adjourned meeting. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the SGM or any adjournment thereof should you so wish and in such event, the appointing a proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.
The Board is not aware of any requirement for any Shareholder to abstain from voting on the resolution to approve the Change of Company Name at the SGM. The special resolution proposed to be approved at the SGM will be taken by poll and an announcement will be made by the Company following the conclusion of the SGM to inform the Shareholders of the poll results.
