To the Shareholders
Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSAL FOR ADOPTION OF SHARE OPTION SCHEME AND NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the resolution to be proposed at the EGM relating to the proposed adoption of the Share Option Scheme.
– 4 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The purpose of the Share Option Scheme is to enable the Board to grant Options to selected Eligible Participants as incentives or rewards for their contribution or potential contribution to the Group and to recruit and retain high caliber eligible persons and attract human resources that are valuable to the Group. Proposed employees are included as Eligible Participants to enable the Company to offer a competitive remuneration package to recruit high caliber candidates.
In order to achieve the aforementioned purposes and maintain the value of the Company, the Directors have specified at the time of the Offer, the minimum period for which an Option must be held, the performance targets that must be achieved before the Option can be exercised as well as the minimum Subscription Price.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 635,000,000 Shares in issue. Assuming that there is no change in the number of issued Shares for the period from the Latest Practicable Date up to the Adoption Date, the number of Shares issuable pursuant to the Share Option Scheme will be 16,000,000 Shares, being approximately 2.5% of the total number of Shares in issue on the Adoption Date.
The Share Option Scheme is conditional upon:
-
(i) the approval of the Shareholders at a general meeting to be held; and
-
(ii) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the new Shares which may be allotted and issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options.
Application will be made to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the granting of the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the new Shares which may be allotted and issued pursuant to the Share Option Scheme.
The Directors consider that it is not appropriate to state the value of all Options that can be granted under the Share Option Scheme as if they had been granted on the Latest Practicable Date as a number of variables which are crucial for the calculation of the value of the Options have not been determined. Such variables include but are not limited to the Subscription Price, Option Period, lock-up period and performance targets. The Directors believe that any calculation of the value of the Options as at the Latest Practicable Date based on a number of speculative assumptions would not be meaningful and would be misleading to the Shareholders.
– 5 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
A summary of the principal terms of the Share Option Scheme is set out in the Appendix to this circular. A copy of the terms of the Share Option Scheme is available for inspection during normal business hours at Room 803B, 8/F, East Ocean Centre, 98 Granville Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong from the date of this circular to the date of the EGM (both dates inclusive) and also at the EGM.
The Share Option Scheme is to be administered by the Board. None of the Directors is a trustee of the Share Option Scheme or has a direct or indirect interest in the relevant trustee (if any). With respect to the operation of the Share Option Scheme, the Company will, where applicable, comply with the relevant requirements under Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the Directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder had a material interest in the proposed adoption of the Share Option Scheme and no Shareholder was required to abstain from voting at the EGM for approving the Share Option Scheme.
Up to the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had not previously adopted any share option scheme.
EGM
A notice convening the EGM to be held at Conference Room, Fourth Floor, Youyi Hotel, Rongcheng City, Shandong Province, the PRC, on Friday, 5 July 2019 at 9:00 a.m. is set out on pages 16 to 17 of this circular. At the EGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve, the adoption of the Share Option Scheme. A form of proxy for the EGM is enclosed with this circular. Such form of proxy is also published on the websites of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk) and the Company (www.prinxchengshan.com). Whether or not you intend to attend the EGM, you are requested to complete the enclosed form of proxy and return it in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the office of 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, Wan Chai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding of the EGM (i.e. not later than 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 3 July 2019) or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the EGM or any adjournment thereof if you so wish.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll. Accordingly, all resolutions will be put to vote by way of poll at the EGM.

RECOMMENDATION

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. 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 aspects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other material matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.

SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE SHARE OPTION SCHEME
APPENDIX
1. PURPOSE OF THE SHARE OPTION SCHEME
The Share Option Scheme aims to attract, retain and provide incentives to senior and mid-level management and key employees of the Company, to provide them with the opportunity to obtain shares of the Company and to link their interests closely to the operating results and share performance of the Company with a view to increasing the value of the Company and to attracting human resources that are valuable to the Group.
2. WHO MAY JOIN
The basis of eligibility of any of the class of Eligible Participants to the grant of any Option shall be determined by the Board from time to time on the basis of their contribution to the development and growth of the Group and any Invested Entity. The grant of Options to proposed employees is based on, among other things, the Company’s objective of attracting them to join the Group and the proposed employees’ contribution during their probation period. For avoidance of any doubt,
-
a) the grant of any option by the Company for the subscription of Shares or other securities of the Group to any person who fall within any of the classes of Eligible Participants shall not, by itself, unless the Board otherwise determined, be construed as a grant of Option under the Share Option Scheme;
-
b) no person shall be an Eligible Participant only because of his or her being an Eligible Participant under any previous share option scheme adopted by the Company.
Eligible Participants means: any employee or proposed employee (whether full time or part time) of any member of the Group or any Invested Entity, excluding any independent non-executive Directors and provided that the proposed employee is actually employed by the Group and passes the stipulated probation period.
3. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE OF SHARES
The Subscription Price in respect of any Option shall be such price as determined by the Board in its absolute discretion at the time of the grant of the relevant Option (and shall be stated in the letter containing the Offer) but in any case the Subscription Price shall not be lower than the highest of (a) the closing price of the Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotation sheet on the date of grant, which must be a business day; (b) the average closing price of the Shares as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheets for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of grant; and (c) the nominal value of a Share on the date of grant.

-
b) the Company may seek approval of the Shareholders in general meeting for refreshing the 10% limit such that total number of Shares in respect of which Options may be granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option scheme(s) of the Company as “refreshed” shall not exceed 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the approval of the Shareholders provided that Options previously granted under the Share Option Scheme or any share option scheme(s) of the Company (including options outstanding, cancelled, lapsed or exercised in accordance with the terms of the Share Option Scheme or any other share option scheme(s) of the Company) will not be counted for the purpose of calculating the limit as “refreshed”.
