CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

Dear Sir/Madam,

PROPOSED GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

1. INTRODUCTION

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 23 November 2017 announcing, among other matters, the poll results of the AGM. The following resolutions had been proposed but were not passed by the Shareholders by way of poll at the AGM:

* For identification purpose only

– 3 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  • (1) To grant a general mandate to the Directors to issue, allot and otherwise deal with the shares of the Company.

  • (2) To add the total number of the shares repurchased by the Company to the mandate granted to the Directors under the proposed resolution set out in sub-paragraph (1) above.

By the Announcement, the Board announced its intention to convene the EGM at which resolutions will be proposed for the Shareholders to approve the grant of the General Mandates.

The purpose of this circular is to provide Shareholders with information relating to the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM for (i) granting the General Mandates; and (ii) the notice of the EGM.

2. GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES

At the EGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed such that the Directors be given an unconditional general mandate (i.e. the Issuance Mandate) to allot, issue and deal with the unissued Shares or underlying Shares of the Company (other than by way of rights or pursuant to a share option scheme for employees of the Company or Directors and/or any of its subsidiaries or pursuant to any scrip dividend scheme or similar arrangements providing for the issue and allotment of Shares in lieu of whole or part of the dividends on Shares in accordance with the Articles of Association) or make or grant offers, agreements, options, warrants and other securities to subscribe for or convertible into Shares, which might require the exercise of such power, of up to 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution granting the Issuance Mandate.

In addition, a separate ordinary resolution will further be proposed for extending the Issuance Mandate (i.e. the Extended Issuance Mandate) authorizing the Directors to allot, issue and deal with Shares to the extent of the Shares repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has an aggregate of 3,290,855,068 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the resolution for granting the Issuance Mandate, and on the basis that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased by the Company between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of the EGM, the Directors would be authorized to allot, issue and deal with a maximum of 658,171,013 new Shares, being 20% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

– 4 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The General Mandates shall continue to be in force during the period from the date of passing of the resolutions for granting the Issuance Mandate (including the Extended Issuance Mandate) up to (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association, the Companies Law, Cap. 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands or any applicable laws to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation of the General Mandates by ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting, whichever occurs first.

3. REASONS FOR THE GRANT OF GENERAL MANDATES

The principal activities of the Group are (i) provision of lottery-related services and (ii) provision of others services (including catering services, consulting services and provision of internet plus solution services).

As the grant of the General Mandates will empower the Directors to issue new Shares of up to 20% of the total number of issued Shares and provide the Company with the flexibility and ability to capture any appropriate capital raising or business opportunities which may arise in a timely manner, the Directors consider that the grant of the General Mandates is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has not yet formulated any concrete plan for raising capital by issuing new Shares under the General Mandates.

4. LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

Pursuant to the GEM Listing Rules 17.39, the Directors shall obtain the consent from Shareholders in general meeting prior to allotting, issuing or granting Shares, securities convertible into Shares or options or warrants or similar rights to subscribe for any Shares or such convertible securities.

5. EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

The resolutions to be proposed at the EGM are set out in full in the notice of the EGM on pages 7 to 10 of this circular. A form of proxy for use at the EGM is enclosed with this circular.

If you intend to appoint a proxy to attend the EGM, you are requested to complete the form of proxy and return it to the Company’s Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office, Tricor Standard Limited at Level 22, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen’s Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the EGM or any adjourned meeting (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 EGM or any adjournments thereof if you so wish and in such event, the proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.

Pursuant to Rule 17.47(4) of the GEM Listing Rules, any vote of the Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. Therefore, all resolutions set out in the notice of the EGM will be voted by way of poll at the EGM. The Company will announce the results of the poll in the manner prescribed under Rule 17.47(5) of the GEM Listing Rules.
