LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Share Options to Mr. Chan; (iii) the recommendations of the Board, including all the independent non-executive Directors, in relation to the proposed grant of Shares Options to Mr. Chan; and (iv) the notice of the EGM.
2. PROPOSED REFRESHMENT OF SCHEME MANDATE LIMIT
Apart from the Share Option Scheme, the Company has no other share option schemes as at the Latest Practicable Date. The Scheme Mandate Limit has not been refreshed since the date of listing of the Shares.
Pursuant to Note 1 to Rule 17.03(3) of the Listing Rules and the rules of the Share Option Scheme, the Company may seek approval by its Shareholders in general meeting for refreshing the Scheme Mandate Limit. However, the Scheme Mandate Limit as refreshed must not exceed 10% of the Shares in issue as at the date of the Shareholders’ approval. Share Options previously granted under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Company (including those exercised, outstanding, cancelled, lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Share Option Scheme or any other share option schemes) will not be counted for the purpose of calculating the Scheme Mandate Limit as refreshed.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, an aggregate of 80,250,288 Share Options have been granted. This would result in the total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all Share Options granted under the Share Option Scheme, in aggregate, to exceed the Existing Scheme Mandate Limit, being 22,400,000 Shares. An aggregate number of 57,850,288 exceeded the Existing Scheme Mandate Limit, of which (i) 7,432,000 Share Options were lapsed as at the Latest Practicable Date; and (ii) 50,418,288 Share Options were outstanding as at the Latest Practicable Date (which exceeded the Existing Scheme Mandate Limit). The Board resolved on 11 December 2020 to cancel 52,875,488 Existing Share Options (details of which are set out in the announcement of the Company dated 11 December 2020), subject to the respective consent of the grantees. The 52,875,488 Existing Share Options which were granted to the grantees have been cancelled as at the Latest Practicable Date. As such, as at the Latest Practicable Date, 7,432,000

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Share Options were lapsed, 14,298,000 Share Options were exercised, 52,875,488 Share Options were cancelled and only 5,644,800 Share Options granted within the Existing Scheme Mandate Limit will remain outstanding upon cancellation of the Existing Share Options. These 5,644,800 Share Options represent Share Options granted in 2017, details of which are as follows:
| Number of | ||
|---|---|---|
| Share Options | ||
| Name of grantee | Position(s) held with the Company | granted |
| Prof. Pong Kam Keung | Executive Director | 470,400 |
| Mr. Yim Kwok Man | Non-executive Director | 470,400 |
| Mr. Lee Chung Ming Eric | Independent non-executive Director | 470,400 |
| Ms. Chan Wah Man Carman | Independent non-executive Director | 470,400 |
| Mr. Shiu Siu Tao | Former independent non-executive Director | 470,400 |
| Other eligible participants | 3,292,800 |
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 641,498,000 Shares in issue. Assuming that no new Shares will be issued prior to the EGM, the maximum number of Share Options that can be granted by the Company under the proposed refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit would be 64,149,800 Shares, being 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the resolution approving the proposed refreshment of Scheme Mandate Limit at the EGM.
Pursuant to Note 2 to Rule 17.03(3) of the Listing Rules and the rules of the Share Option Scheme, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of all outstanding Share Options granted and yet to be exercised under the Share Option Scheme and any other share option schemes of the Company must not exceed 30% of the Shares in issue from time to time.
Upon cancellation of the Existing Share Options, 5,644,800 Share Options granted within the Scheme Mandate Limit would remain outstanding. The total number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of the aforementioned outstanding Share Options, the proposed refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit and the proposed grant of Share Options to Mr. Chan (details of which are set out in the section headed “Proposed Grant of Share Options” below), will be 79,794,600 Shares, representing approximately 12.44% of the Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and will not exceed the overall limit of 30% of the Shares in issue (assuming that no new Shares will be issued prior to the EGM).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Conditions of the proposed refreshment of Scheme Mandate Limit
The proposed refreshment of Scheme Mandate Limit is conditional upon:
-
(i) the Shareholders passing an ordinary resolution to approve the proposed refreshment of Scheme Mandate Limit at the EGM; and
-
(ii) the Stock Exchange granting the approval for the listing of and permission to deal in the Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Share Options that may be granted under the proposed refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit.
Application will be made to the Stock Exchange for the listing of and permission to deal in the Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the Share Options that may be granted under the proposed refreshed Scheme Mandate Limit.
Reasons for the proposed refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit
Unless the Scheme Mandate Limit is refreshed, no further Share Options may be granted under the Share Option Scheme. The Board is of the view that the proposed refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit will allow the Company more flexibility to motivate the eligible participants, attract and retain or otherwise maintain ongoing business relationship with the eligible participants whose contributions are, will or expected to be beneficial to the Group. Therefore, the Board considers that the proposed refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit is in the interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole.
3. PROPOSED GRANT OF SHARE OPTIONS
Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 11 December 2020. On 11 December 2020, 10,000,000 Share Options to subscribe for up to a total of 10,000,000 Shares are granted to Mr. Chan (the “ Grantee ”), being an eligible participant, under the Share Option Scheme, subject to the acceptance of the Grantee and the payment of HK$1.00 by the Grantee upon acceptance of the Share Options. Details of the Share Options granted are set out as follows:
Date of Grant : 11 December 2020 Number of Share Options granted : 10,000,000 (each Share Option shall entitle the holder of the Share Option to subscribe for one Share), which is subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the EGM
– 6 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Exercise price of Share Options : HK$0.41 per Share, which is not less than the highest granted of: (i) the closing price of HK$0.40 per Share as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotations sheet on the Date of Grant;
-
(ii) the average closing price of HK$0.41 per Share as stated in the Stock Exchange’s daily quotation sheets for the five business days immediately preceding the Date of Grant; and
-
(iii) the nominal value of HK$0.01 per Share on the Date of Grant.
Closing price of the Shares on the : HK$0.40 per Share Date of Grant Validity period of the Share Options : From the date upon obtaining the Shareholders’ approval at the EGM (with Mr. Chan and his associates abstaining from voting at the EGM) to 10 December 2030 (both dates inclusive). Vesting period : The Share Options will be fully vested from the date upon obtaining the Shareholders’ approval at the EGM (with Mr. Chan and his associates abstaining from voting at the EGM) Performance target : None
All 10,000,000 Shares Options were granted to an executive Director, Mr. Chan.
The grant of Share Options to the above Director has been approved by the independent non-executive Directors in accordance with Rule 17.04(1) of the Listing Rules. Mr. Chan has abstained from voting on the relevant resolution in relation to the granting of the Share Options to Mr. Chan at the Board meeting. The grant of 10,000,000 Share Options would entitle the Grantee to subscribe for 10,000,000 Shares, representing 1.56% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
There were 6,000,000 Share Options granted to Mr. Chan (on 23 November 2020) in the past 12 months before the date of the proposed grant (i.e. 11 December 2020) but all such 6,000,000 Share Options were cancelled.
Reasons for the proposed grant of Share Options to Mr. Chan
The Company proposes to grant Share Options to employees to increase their motivation as the Company grows. Granting Share Options also provides incentive for employee retention as well as alignment with the medium and long-term goals of the Company. In addition, the exercise of the Share Options is a means to enhance the capital base of the Company and provide the Company with the financial flexibility necessary for its development and expansion. Mr. Chan has extensive experience in strategic management and high market and economic sense. As the founder, controlling shareholder, executive director and chief executive officer of the Company, Mr. Chan has led the Group since its incorporation. He led various departments and participated throughout the whole process of each project from research and making the decision to the purchase of a site, negotiation with the bankers on project financing, design of the image and construction details of each project, finalizing marketing campaign of pre-sales, etc. He oversees various development projects including the completed projects of the Galaxy, the Star and the Rainbow. For the year of 2017, a HK$714.2 million revenue were recognized in the year of 2017 due to completion of the project of the Star. The consolidated net profit attributable to shareholder was HK$95.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2017 which was a notable increase as compared with that for the year ended 31 December 2016. For the year ended 31 December 2018, the Group has recorded a notable increase in the gross profit as compared with that for the year ended 31 December 2017 which was mainly due to the profit recognition of “The Rainbow” which benefited from the Revitalisation Measures. A special waiver granted by the Lands Department to change the land use from industrial to commercial and thus, the profit margin of this project increased. In 2019, in view of the unstable economic situation, Mr. Chan led the Group to diversify investment and expand the land bank coverage to South Korea. Besides, he also led the Group to accomplish a very substantial disposal which reflects a consolidated net profit for the Group over approximately HK$300 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020 as compared to the consolidated net loss for the six months ended 30 June 2019. To recognize the employee’s contribution, the Company granted 6,000,000 Share Options to Mr. Chan in 2020 (but all of them were cancelled). The total number of Share Options of Mr. Chan that are subject to cancellation is 11,476,000. The Board is of the view that although Mr. Chan is the controlling shareholder of the Company, Mr. Chan is also the chief executive officer of the Company who led the Company to grow and expand. It would be fair to recognize his contribution to the Company and his entitlement to Share Options shall not be excluded because of his own interest as the controlling shareholder of the Company. 10,000,000 Share Options are granted to Mr. Chan, subject to the approval by the Shareholders at the EGM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Listing Rules implications
Pursuant to the Note to Rule 17.03(4) of the Listing Rules and the rules of the Share Option Scheme, where any grant of share options to a participant would result in the shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of all share options granted and to be granted to such person (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding share options) in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant representing in aggregate over 1% of the shares in issue, such grant of share options must be separately approved by shareholders of the Company in general meeting with such participant and his close associates (or his associates if the participant is a connected person) abstaining from voting.
Pursuant to Rule 17.04(1) of the Listing Rules and the rules of the Share Option Scheme, any grant of share options to a substantial shareholder or an independent non-executive director of the Company, or any of their respective associates, which would result in the shares issued and to be issued upon exercise of all share options already granted and to be granted (including options exercised, cancelled and outstanding) to such person in the 12-month period up to and including the date of such grant (i) representing in aggregate over 0.1% of the shares in issue; and (ii) having an aggregate value, based on the closing price of the shares at the date of each grant, in excess of HK$5 million, such further grant of share options must be approved by shareholders of the Company. The grantee, his associates and all core connected persons of the Company must abstain from voting in favour at such general meeting.
Given that (i) the total number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Share Options granted and to be granted (including Share Options exercised, cancelled and outstanding) to Mr. Chan (being a substantial shareholder of the Company) in a 12-month period represents in aggregate over 0.1% of the Shares in issue and having an aggregate value in excess of HK$5 million, based on the closing price of the Shares of HK$0.40 on the Date of Grant; and (ii) the total number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Share Options granted and to be granted to Mr. Chan (including exercised, cancelled and outstanding Share Options) would in a 12-month period exceed 1% of the Shares in issue, pursuant to the Listing Rules, the grant of the Share Options to Mr. Chan is subject to the approval by the Shareholders at the EGM. Mr. Chan, his associates and all core connected persons of the Company shall abstain from voting in relation to the granting of the Share Options to Mr. Chan at the EGM.

A notice convening the EGM is set out on pages EGM-1 to EGM-2 of this circular.
To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has any material interest in the proposed refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit and therefore no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolution approving the proposed refreshment of the Scheme Mandate Limit at the EGM.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, Mr. Lam Kin Kok (a substantial shareholder of certain subsidiaries of the Company), Ms. Cheung Wai Shuen (an executive Director) and Ms. Chan Wah Man Carman (an independent non-executive Director) are core connected persons of the Company and are required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolution to approve the proposed grant of Share Options to Mr. Chan at the EGM. As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Lam Kin Kok, Ms. Cheung Wai Shuen and Ms. Chan Wah Man Carman and their respective associates hold, in aggregate, 40,273,200 Shares, representing approximately 6.28% of the total number of issued Shares.
Save as disclosed above, to the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, no other Shareholder has any material interest in the proposed grant of Share Options to Mr. Chan, and therefore no other Shareholder is required to abstain from voting on the relevant resolution approving the proposed grant of Share Options to Mr. Chan at the EGM.
To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, there is (i) no voting trust or other agreement or arrangement or understanding entered into by or binding upon any Shareholders; and (ii) no obligation or entitlement of any Shareholder as at the Latest Practicable Date, whereby it/he has or may have temporarily or permanently passed control over the exercise of the voting right in respect of its/his Shares to a third party, either generally or on a case-by-case basis.
