• (b) to repurchase Shares with the aggregate number of Shares not exceeding 10% of the number of Shares of the Company in issue (the “Repurchase Mandate”) as at the date of passing the resolution approving the Repurchase Mandate (subject to adjustment in case of any conversion of any or all of the Shares into a larger or smaller number of Shares after approving the Repurchase Mandate); and

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the requisite information to you for your consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

The Listing Rules provide that all repurchase of securities by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution, either by way of general mandate or by specific approval in relation to specific transactions.

SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, 915,600,000 Shares were in issue and fully paid.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolutions and on the basis that no further Shares are issued and repurchased prior to the 2022 AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 91,560,000 Shares, representing 10% of the aggregate number of the Shares in issue.

REASONS FOR REPURCHASE

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

FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

Any repurchase will only be funded out of funds of the Company legally available for the purpose of making the proposed purchases in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association and the laws of the Cayman Islands.

EFFECT OF EXERCISING THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company (as compared with the position disclosed in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021) in the event that the repurchase of Shares 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 of Shares to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

DIRECTORS AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their respective Close Associates have any present intention, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Share to the Company or its subsidiaries.

No Core Connected Persons 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 the Shareholders.

DIRECTORS’ UNDERTAKING

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

TAKEOVERS CODE AND MINIMUM PUBLIC HOLDING

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 Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the interest of our Shareholders, could obtain or consolidate control of our Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the following Shareholder was interested in more than 10% of the issued shares of the Company:

APPENDIX I

Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any other consequence under the Takeovers Code as a result of a repurchase of Shares made pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate.
