LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The proposed amendments to the Bye-laws and the proposed adoption of the new Bye-laws are subject to the approval of Shareholders by way of special resolutions at the Annual General Meeting.

The legal adviser to the Company as to Hong Kong law has confirmed that the proposed amendments to the Bye-laws comply with the requirements of the Listing Rules. The legal adviser to the Company as to Bermuda law has confirmed that the proposed amendments to the Bye-laws do not violate the applicable laws of Bermuda. The Company confirms that there is nothing unusual about the proposed amendments for a Bermuda company listed on the Stock Exchange.

Shareholders are advised that the Bye-laws are available in English and Chinese. The Chinese translation of the Bye-laws is for reference only. In case of any inconsistency, the English version shall prevail.

At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to Shareholders in respect of ordinary business to be considered at the Annual General Meeting, including re-election of retiring Directors, and special business to be considered at the Annual General Meeting, being the Repurchase Resolution and ordinary resolutions to approve the general mandate for Directors to issue new Shares and the extension of the general mandate to issue new Shares.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This Appendix I serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Share Repurchase Rules, to provide requisite information to you for your consideration of the Repurchase Resolution, the approval of which will grant a general mandate to the Directors to exercise the power of the Company during the period as set out in the Repurchase Resolution to repurchase Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the Repurchase Resolution.

1. SHARE REPURCHASE RULES

The Share Repurchase Rules permit companies whose primary listing is on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their fully paid up shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarised below:

(a) Shareholders’ Approval

The Share Repurchase Rules provide that all on-market share repurchases by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by way of a specific approval in relation to specific transactions or by a general mandate to the directors of the company to make such repurchase.

(b) Source of Funds

Share repurchases must be made out of funds which are legally available for the purpose and in accordance with the company’s constitutive documents and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the company is incorporated or otherwise established.

(c) Maximum Number of Shares to be Repurchased and Subsequent Issue

The shares to be repurchased by a company must be fully-paid up. A maximum of 10% of the existing issued share capital of a company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution may be repurchased on the Stock Exchange and a company may not, without the prior approval of the Stock Exchange, issue new shares or announce a proposed new issue of shares for a period of 30 days immediately following a share repurchase whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise (other than an issue of securities pursuant to the exercise of warrants, share options or similar instruments requiring the company to issue securities, which were outstanding prior to the repurchase).

2. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 7,865,737,149 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the Repurchase Resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued and no Shares are repurchased prior to the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed, if the Repurchase Resolution is approved, to repurchase up to a maximum of 786,573,714 Shares representing 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the Repurchase Resolution.

– 6 –

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the Repurchase Proposal is in the best interests of the Company and Shareholders as a whole. Share repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that repurchases will benefit the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the memorandum of association of the Company, the Bye-laws and the applicable law of Bermuda. Pursuant to the Companies Act, the amount of capital repaid in connection with a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the capital paid up on the relevant Shares, the profits that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose. The amount of premium payable on a share repurchase may only be paid out of either the profits that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution, or the share premium or contributed surplus accounts of the Company.

There might be an adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the 2012 Annual Report of the Company in the event that the Repurchase Proposal were to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to an extent where it would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements or gearing levels of the Company or which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time inappropriate for the Company.

5. SHARES PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the twelve complete months prior to the Latest Practicable Date and for the month of March 2013 up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Share price (HK$) Share price (HK$)
Highest Lowest
2012 March 1.45 1.20
April 1.34 1.27
May 1.31 1.00
June 1.30 1.17
July 1.30 1.08
August 1.16 0.95
September 1.12 0.96
October 1.22 1.03
November 1.23 1.13
December 1.24 1.09
2013 January 1.34 1.18

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

6. UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make Share repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate and in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries under the Repurchase Mandate if such mandate is approved by Shareholders.

No connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries, or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders.

7. TAKEOVERS CODE

If on the exercise of the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, CITIC Group, the ultimate holding company of the Company, was interested in an aggregate of 4,674,547,697 Shares, representing 59.43% of the issued share capital of the Company. Based on such shareholding and in the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the aggregate shareholding of CITIC Group would increase to 66.03% of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequence which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases made under the Repurchase Mandate.

The Directors will use their best endeavours to ensure that the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised to the extent that the number of Shares held by the public would be reduced to less than 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

8. SHARES REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company has not repurchased any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
