GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE AND REPURCHASE SHARES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 10 June 2014, ordinary resolutions were passed granting the Existing Issue Mandate and the Existing Repurchase Mandate to the Directors.

In accordance with the provisions of the Listing Rules and the terms of the Existing Issue Mandate and the Existing Repurchase Mandate, the Existing Issue Mandate and the Existing Repurchase Mandate shall lapse if, among other matters, they are revoked or varied by ordinary resolutions of the Shareholders in general meeting.

Resolutions set out as resolutions 4A(d) and 4B(c) in the notice of the Annual General Meeting will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to revoke the Existing Issue Mandate and the Existing Repurchase Mandate respectively. New general mandate to allot, issue and deal with Shares of up to 20% of the aggregate nominal value of the share capital of the Company in issue (which shall amount to 2,975,870,303 Shares based on the issued share capital of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date) as at the date of passing the relevant resolution granting this mandate, and the Proposed Repurchase Mandate as set out in resolutions 4A(a), (b), (c) and (e) and resolutions 4B(a), (b) and (d) will also be proposed at the Annual General Meeting. Such mandates shall continue until the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by law or the bye-laws of the Company to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation of the authority given under such mandate by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting. With reference to the proposed new general mandates, the Directors wish to state that they have no immediate plans to issue or repurchase any Shares pursuant to the relevant mandates.

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the Proposed Repurchase Mandate is set out in the Appendix to this circular. The explanatory statement contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the relevant resolution in relation to the Proposed Repurchase Mandate at the Annual General Meeting.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF PROPOSED REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX

This Appendix contains the particulars that are required by the Listing Rules to be included in an explanatory statement to enable the Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the Proposed Repurchase Mandate.

SOURCE OF FUNDS

Repurchases must be funded out of fund 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.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 14,879,351,515 Shares. Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Proposed Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased before the Annual General Meeting, the Company will be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 1,487,935,151 Shares during the period ending on the earliest of the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company or the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by law or bye-laws of the Company or the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied by a resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting.

REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to seek a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase the Shares on the Stock Exchange. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions, and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares and they would only exercise the power to repurchase in circumstances where they consider that the repurchase would be in the best interests of the Company. The Directors consider that there may be adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, as compared with the positions disclosed in the audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2014, in the event that the proposed Share repurchase was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. The Directors do not propose to exercise the mandate to repurchase Shares to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital of the Company or its gearing levels.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT OF PROPOSED REPURCHASE MANDATE

APPENDIX

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares, a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases. Such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purposes of the Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Code), depending on the level of increase of the Shareholders’ interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date and so far as was known to the Directors, Smart Success Capital Ltd. and the parties acting in concert (as defined in the Code) with it were interested in a total of 6,983,111,000 Shares, representing approximately 46.93% of the issued share capital of the Company. On the basis that no further Shares will be issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date, in the event that the Directors exercise the Proposed Repurchase Mandate in full, the shareholdings of Smart Success Capital Ltd. and the parties acting in concert (as defined in the Code) with it in the Company would be increased to approximately 52.15% of the issued share capital of the Company as reduced by the exercise of the Proposed Repurchase Mandate in full. Smart Success Capital Ltd. and the parties acting in concert (as defined in the Code) with it would be required under Rule 26 of the Code to make a mandatory offer pursuant to such increase. The Directors have no present intention to exercise in full the power to repurchase shares proposed to be granted pursuant to the Proposed Repurchase Mandate.

The Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase on the Stock Exchange if the result of the repurchase would be that less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Stock Exchange) of the issued share capital would be held in public hands. The Directors do not propose to repurchase Shares which would result in less than the prescribed minimum percentage of Shares being held in public hands.

The Company did not repurchase any of its Shares on the Stock Exchange during the six months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
