INTRODUCTION
This supplemental circular should be read together with the circular of the Company dated 27 April 2017 (the “ Circular ”) which contains, among others, the notice of the AGM dated 27 April 2017 (the “ Original AGM Notice ”) and proxy form (the “ Original Proxy Form ”) of which one of the agenda items is the re-election of retiring Directors of the Company. Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this supplemental circular shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Circular.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The purpose of this supplemental circular is to: (i) furnish you details of the proposed re-election of an additional retiring Director; and (ii) give you the revised notice of the AGM (the “ Revised AGM Notice ”) and revised Proxy Form (the “ Revised Proxy Form ”) .
PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTOR
As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 4 May 2017, subsequent to the despatch of the Circular, Mr. Yao Jun (“ Mr. Yao ”) resigned as an executive Director with effect on 4 May 2017 and Mr. He Haibin (“ Mr. He ”) was appointed as an executive Director by the Board with effect from the even date.
Since Mr. Yao has resigned prior to the AGM, the ordinary resolution on the re-election of Mr. Yao as an executive Director as set out in resolution no. 4 of the Original AGM Notice shall be deleted. On the other hand, pursuant to article 112 of the Articles, Mr. He, being eligible, shall offer himself for re-election at the AGM. As such, a resolution in relation to the re-election of Mr. He as an executive Director shall be inserted into the Original AGM Notice. The aforesaid changes to the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM are set out in the Revised AGM Notice and Revised Proxy Form. Particulars of Mr. He are set out in Appendix I to this supplemental circular.
REVISED AGM NOTICE AND REVISED PROXY FORM
Since the Original AGM Notice and Original Proxy Form sent together with the Circular has included the resolution for the re-election of Mr. Yao which should be deleted and has not contained the resolution for the re-election of Mr. He as set out in this supplemental circular, the Revised AGM Notice and the Revised Proxy Form are enclosed with this supplemental circular to reflect such update to the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.
Whether or not you are able to attend the AGM, you are requested to complete and return the enclosed Revised Proxy Form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon to the Company’s principal place of business (the “ Principal Place of Business ”) at Suites 3203-3204, Tower 6, The Gateway, Harbour City, Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong or the Company’s Hong Kong branch share registrar (the “ Share Registrar ”) , Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible but in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the AGM (the “ Closing Time ”) . Completion and return of the Revised Proxy Form will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the AGM, or any adjournment thereof, should you so wish.
Shareholders who have appointed or intend to appoint proxy to attend the AGM are requested to pay particular attention to the following arrangement in relation to the completion and submission of the Revised Proxy Form:
-
(1) A Shareholder who has not yet lodged the Original Proxy Form with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar is requested to lodge the Revised Proxy Form if he/she wishes to appoint proxy to attend, speak and vote at the AGM on his/her behalf. In this case, the Original Proxy Form should not be lodged with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
-
(2) A Shareholder who has already lodged the Original Proxy Form with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar should note that:
-
(i) If no Revised Proxy Form is lodged with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar, the Original Proxy Form, if correctly completed, will be treated as a valid proxy form lodged by him/her. The proxy so appointed by the Shareholder will be entitled to cast the vote at his/her discretion or to abstain from voting on any resolution properly put to the AGM (including, if properly put, a resolution for the re-election of Mr. He as set out in this supplemental circular) except for those resolutions to which the Shareholder has indicated his/her voting direction in the Original Proxy Form.
-
(ii) If the Revised Proxy Form is lodged with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar before the Closing Time, the Revised Proxy Form, if correctly completed, will revoke and supersede the Original Proxy Form previously lodged by him/her. The Revised Proxy Form will be treated as a valid proxy form lodged by the Shareholder.
-
(iii) If the Revised Proxy Form is lodged with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar after the Closing Time, or if lodged before the Closing Time but is incorrectly completed, the proxy appointment under the Revised Proxy Form will be invalid. The proxy so appointed by the Shareholder under the Original Proxy Form, if correctly completed, will be entitled to vote in the manner as mentioned in (i) above as if no Revised Proxy Form was lodged with the Principal Place of Business or the Share Registrar.
RECOMMENDATION
In addition to the recommendations contained in the Circular, the Directors consider that the proposed re-election of Mr. He as an executive Director as set out in this supplemental circular is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Directors recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of the relevant resolution as set out in the Revised AGM Notice at the forthcoming AGM.
Yours faithfully He Haibin Chairman
