LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Pursuant to article 58 of the Articles, any one or more shareholders holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than one-tenth of the paid up capital of the Company carrying the right of voting at general meetings of the Company shall at all times have the right, by written requisition to the Board to require an extraordinary general meeting to be called by the Board for the transaction of any business specified in such requisition within 21 days of such deposit.

(2) REQUISITION FROM SHAREHOLDERS

The Company received the Requisition dated 14 March 2013 purportedly signed by Mr. Jeong Keun Hae as attorney for Mr. Park Seung Ho and by Mr. Jeong Keun Hae as attorney for Skyline Merit Limited (granted by its sole director, Ms. Choi Soo In) requesting the Board to convene an extraordinary general meeting in accordance with the Articles. The Requisition requested the convention of an extraordinary general meeting for considering and, if thought fit, passing the following ordinary resolutions:—

  1. “THAT the board of the Company be and are hereby directed to enforce immediately the rights of the Company pursuant to the undertakings given by (i) Mr. Lim Ho Sok to provide financial support to the Company and its subsidiaries of up to HK$50,000,000 and (ii) Mr. Choi Sungmin to provide financial support to the Company and its subsidiaries of up to HK$50,000,000 (the “Loan Facilities”) by demanding and making a full drawdown of the Loan Facilities and in the event that sums due under such Loan Facilities are not provided to the Company in accordance with their terms, THAT the board of the Company be directed to commence legal proceedings for breach of such obligations in the relevant court within seven days of such default.”

  2. “THAT any and all director or directors appointed by the board pursuant to article 86(3) of the Articles of Association on or after 1 January 2013 be and they are hereby removed as director with immediate effect.”

Although the Board intends to comply with Code Provision A.4 of Appendix 14 of the Listing Rules that “an issuer must explain the reasons for the resignation or removal of any director”, the Board has difficulty to comply with in this case for the reasons that (i) the Requisition Shareholders have not provided any reason for removal of all directors appointed by the Board pursuant to article 86(3) of the Articles on or after 1 January 2013 and (ii) the person(s) proposed to be removed has not yet existed nor identified.

(3) EGM AND VOTING ARRANGEMENT

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of shareholders at a general meeting must be conducted by way of poll. The chairman of the meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the EGM in accordance with the Articles. The results of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolutions of the general meeting in which the poll was demanded or required and the poll results will be published on the websites of the Stock Exchange and the Company after the EGM.

A notice convening the EGM to be held at 10:00 a.m. on 13 May 2013 at The Jasmine Room of Ramada Hong Kong Hotel at 3rd Floor, 308 Des Voeux Road West, Hong Kong is set out on pages 5 to 6 of this circular. A form of proxy for use at the EGM is enclosed with this circular. Whether or not you intend to attend and vote at such meeting, you are advised to complete the form of proxy enclosed in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the Company’s branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited, at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as practicable but in any event no less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding such meeting or any adjournment thereof (as the case may be). Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the meeting or any adjourned meeting (as the case may be) should you so wish.

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 respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.
