  • (a) there shall develop, occur, exist or come into effect:

    • (i) any new law or regulation or any change in existing laws or regulations or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or other competent authority in Hong Kong or any other place in which any member of the Group conducts or carries on business; or

(ii) any local, national or international event or change of a political, military, fi nancial, economic or other nature, or in the nature of any local, national or international outbreak or escalation of hostilities or armed confl ict, or affecting local securities markets; or

  • (iii) any act of God, war, riot, public disorder, civil commotion, fi re, fl ood, explosion, epidemic or threatened epidemic, terrorism, strike or lock-out; or

  • (iv) the imposition of any moratorium, suspension or material restriction on trading in securities generally on the Stock Exchange occurring due to exceptional fi nancial circumstances; or

  • (v) the occurrence of any event, or series of events, beyond the control of the Underwriter; which, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter:

  • (1) is or will or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business or fi nancial condition of the Group as a whole or the Rights Issue; or

  • (2) has or will have or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the success of the Rights Issue or the level of Rights Shares taken up; or

  • (3) makes it inadvisable or inexpedient for the Company to proceed with the Rights Issue; or

  • (b) there comes to the notice of the Underwriter:

    • (i) any matter or event showing any of the representations, warranties and undertakings made by the Company was, when given, untrue or misleading or as having been breached in any respect; or

(ii) any breach by any of the other parties to the Underwriting Agreement of any of their respective obligations or undertakings under the Underwriting Agreement or under the Option Undertakings, then and in any such case the Underwriter may, upon giving notice to the Company terminate the Underwriting Agreement with immediate effect.

If the Underwriting Agreement is terminated by the Underwriter on or before the Latest Time for Termination or does not become unconditional, the Rights Issue will not proceed.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares.

The Shares have been dealt in on an ex-rights basis from Tuesday, 27 November 2012. Dealings in the Rights Shares in nil-paid form will take place from Tuesday, 11 December 2012 to Tuesday, 18 December 2012 (both days inclusive). If the conditions of the Rights Issue are not fulfi lled and/or waived (where applicable) on or before the Latest Time for Termination (or such later time and/or date as the Company and the Underwriter may determine), or the Underwriting Agreement is terminated by the Underwriter, the Rights Issue will not proceed.

Any Shareholders or other persons contemplating dealing in the Shares or nil-paid Rights Shares will accordingly bear the risk that the Rights Issue may not become unconditional or may not proceed, and are recommended to consult their own professional advisers.
