Dear Sir or Madam,
PROPOSED CAPITAL REORGANISATION AND NOTICE OF SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
The Company announced on 8 October 2012 that the Company proposed to implement the Capital Reorganisation which will involve (a) a consolidation of every twenty issued Shares of HK$0.01 each into one Consolidated Share of HK$0.20; and (b) a reduction in the nominal value of the issued Consolidated Shares from HK$0.20 to HK$0.01 each by cancelling the paid-up capital to the extent of HK$0.19 on each of the issued Consolidated Shares. The credit arising from the Capital Reduction will be transferred to the contributed surplus account of the Company such that the Company may apply such surplus in any manner permitted by the laws of Bermuda and the Bye-Laws including but not limited to setting off against accumulated losses of the Company.
- For identification purposes only

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with further information regarding, among other things, the Capital Reorganisation and the notice convening the SGM.
CAPITAL REORGANISATION
The Capital Reorganisation will involve the Share Consolidation and the Capital Reduction.
Share Consolidation
The Share Consolidation will involve the consolidation of every twenty issued Shares into one Consolidated Share. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company was HK$500,000,000 divided into 50,000,000,000 Shares. As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 2,771,913,018 Shares in issue and fully paid. On the basis of such issued share capital, there will be 138,595,650 whole Consolidated Shares in issue once the Share Consolidation becomes effective. The Consolidated Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with each other.
Capital Reduction
The Capital Reduction of approximately HK$26.3 million will involve a reduction of the nominal value of the then issued Consolidated Shares from HK$0.20 to HK$0.01 each by cancelling the paid-up capital to the extent of HK$0.19 on each of the then issued Consolidated Shares. The credit arising from the Capital Reduction will be transferred to the contributed surplus account of the Company such that the Company may apply such surplus in any manner permitted by the laws of Bermuda and the Bye-Laws including but not limited to setting off against accumulated losses of the Company.
Conditions of the Capital Reorganisation
The Capital Reorganisation (which will be effected in accordance with the Bye-Laws and the Bermuda Companies Act) is conditional upon:
-
(i) the passing of a special resolution by the Shareholders approving the Capital Reorganisation at the SGM;
-
(ii) the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares in issue arising from the Capital Reorganisation; and
-
(iii) the compliance with the requirements of section 46(2) of the Bermuda Companies Act, including (i) publication of a notice in relation to the Capital Reduction in an appointed newspaper in Bermuda on a date not less than fifteen days but not more than thirty days before the date on which the Capital Reduction is to take effect; and (ii) that on the date on which the Capital Reduction is to be effected, there are no reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or after the Capital Reduction would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due.
– 6 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Assuming the above conditions are fulfilled, it is expected that the Capital Reorganisation will become effective on the next Business Day following the date of passing of the relevant resolution approving the Capital Reorganisation.
Effects of the Capital Reorganisation
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had no outstanding options, warrants or other securities convertible into or giving rights to subscribe for Shares or Adjusted Shares, as the case may be. Based on the Company’s existing authorised share capital of HK$500,000,000, represented by 50,000,000,000 Shares and the existing issued share capital of HK$27,719,130.18, represented by 2,771,913,018 Shares, upon completion of the Capital Reorganisation, the authorised share capital of the Company will remain at HK$500,000,000 represented by 50,000,000,000 Adjusted Shares, and the issued share capital will be HK$1,385,956.50 represented by 138,595,650 Adjusted Shares. Immediately after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, the board lot size for trading in the Company’s shares will remain as 5,000 Adjusted Shares. Any fraction of Adjusted Shares arising from the Capital Reorganisation will be aggregated and sold (if a premium, net of expenses, can be obtained) for the benefit of the Company. The Adjusted Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with each other.
The effect of the Capital Reorganisation is summarised below:
| After Share | Immediately | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Consolidation | following | ||
| Prior to the | but immediately | the Capital | |
| Capital | before the | Reorganisation | |
| Reorganisation | Capital Reduction | becoming effective | |
| (Note) | (Note) | ||
| Nominal value of each Share/Adjusted Share | |||
| in issue | HK$0.01 | HK$0.20 | HK$0.01 |
| Authorised share capital | HK$500,000,000 | HK$500,000,000 | HK$500,000,000 |
| Number of Shares/Adjusted Shares in issue | 2,771,913,018 | 138,595,650 | 138,595,650 |
| Issued and fully paid-up share capital | HK$27,719,130.18 | HK$27,719,130.00 | HK$1,385,956.50 |
Note: The issued share capital (i) after Share Consolidation but immediately before the Capital Reduction and (ii) immediately after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective is presented on the assumption that no further Shares would be issued or repurchased between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of the SGM. Any fraction arising from Share Consolidation is not shown in the table.
Based on 2,771,913,018 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, a credit of approximately HK$26.3 million will arise as a result of the Capital Reorganisation and will be transferred to the contributed surplus account of the Company. The Board intends that such amount will be used by the Company to set off against the same amount of accumulated losses of the Company.
Implementation of the Capital Reorganisation will not, of itself, alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the proportionate interests of the Shareholders, except for the payment of the related expenses. The Board believes that the Capital Reorganisation will not have any adverse effect on the financial position of the Group and the Board believes that on the date the Capital
– 7 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Reorganisation is to be effected, there will be no reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or after the Capital Reorganisation would be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due. No capital will be lost as a result of the Capital Reorganisation and, except for the expenses involved in relation to the Capital Reorganisation which are expected to be insignificant in the context of the net asset value of the Company, the net asset value of the Company will remain unchanged before and after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective. The Capital Reorganisation does not involve any diminution of any liability in respect of any unpaid capital of the Company or the repayment to the Shareholders of any paid-up capital of the Company nor will it result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.
In order to alleviate the difficulties arising from the existence of odd lots of Adjusted Shares arising from the Capital Reorganisation, the Company will appoint an agent, Kingston Securities, to stand in the market to provide matching services for the odd lots of Adjusted Shares on a best effort basis to the Shareholders who wish to top up or sell their holdings of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares for the period from Thursday, 29 November 2012 to Wednesday, 19 December 2012 (both dates inclusive). Holders of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares who wish to take advantage of this facility either to dispose of their odd lots of the Adjusted Shares or top up to a full board lot may, directly or through their brokers, contact Ms. Rosita Kiu of Kingston Securities Limited of Suite 2801, 28/F., One International Finance Centre, 1 Harbour View Street, Central, Hong Kong by phone at (852)2298-6215 or by fax at (852)2295-0682 during this period. Holders of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares should note that successful matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Adjusted Shares is not guaranteed. Any Shareholder who is in any doubt about the odd lot facility is recommended to consult his/her/its own professional advisers.
Reasons for the Capital Reorganisation
The Board believes that the Capital Reorganisation is beneficial to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. The Board is of the opinion that the Capital Reorganisation will provide the Company with greater flexibility for equity funding raising in the future and the credit in the contributed surplus account arising as a result of the Capital Reorganisation will enable the Company to apply part of the amount standing to the credit of its contributed surplus account to eliminate the accumulated losses of the Company and this will facilitate the payment of dividends as and when the Directors consider it appropriate in the future.
Listing and Dealings
Application will be made to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares arising from the Capital Reorganisation.
The Adjusted Shares will be identical in all respects and rank pari passu in all respects with each other as to all future dividends and distributions which are declared, made or paid. Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange, the Adjusted Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of dealings in the Adjusted Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by
– 8 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time.
No part of the securities of the Company is listed or dealt in or of which listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought on any other stock exchange.
Free exchange of Share certificates
Subject to the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, Shareholders may submit existing certificates for Shares to the Registrar from 15 November 2012 to 21 December 2012 (both dates inclusive) to exchange, at the expense of the Company, for certificates for the Adjusted Shares in board lot of 5,000 Adjusted Shares. Thereafter, existing blue-colour certificates for the Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may from time to time be allowed by the Stock Exchange) for each blue-colour share certificate of the Shares cancelled or each new orange-colour share certificate issued for the Adjusted Shares, whichever number of certificates cancelled/issued is higher. Nevertheless, existing blue-colour certificates for the Shares will continue to be good evidence of legal title and will be valid for dealings, trading and settlement purpose after the Capital Reorganisation has become effective and may be exchanged for new orange-colour certificates for the Adjusted Shares at any time in accordance with the foregoing.
It is expected that new certificates for Adjusted Shares will be available for collection within 10 Business Days after the submission of the existing share certificates for existing Shares to the Registrar.
TRADING ARRANGEMENTS
Subject to the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, the arrangement for trading in the Adjusted Shares will be as follows:
-
(i) with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 15 November 2012, the original counter for trading in Shares in board lots of 5,000 Shares will be temporarily closed;
-
(ii) with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 15 November 2012, a temporary counter for trading in Adjusted Shares in board lots of 250 Adjusted Shares, in the form of existing share certificates for the Shares, will be opened, and for the purpose of settlement and delivery for trading at this temporary counter every twenty Shares will be deemed to represent one Adjusted Share. Only existing blue-colour share certificates for the Shares can be traded at this counter;
-
(iii) with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 29 November 2012, the original counter will be re-opened for trading in the Adjusted Shares in the board lots of 5,000. Only new orange-colour share certificates for the Adjusted Shares can be traded at this counter;
– 9 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
-
(iv) during the period from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 29 November 2012 to 4:00 p.m. to Wednesday, 19 December 2012 (both days inclusive), parallel trading will be permitted at the above two counters;
-
(v) the temporary counter for trading in Adjusted Shares in board lots of 250 in the form of existing blue-colour share certificates will be removed after the close of trading at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 19 December 2012; and
-
(vi) with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 20 December 2012, trading will only be done in Adjusted Shares in board lots of 5,000 (in the form of new orange-colour share certificates). Nevertheless, existing blue-colour certificates for the Shares will continue to be good evidence of legal title and will be valid for dealings, trading and settlement purpose.
Shareholders are recommended to consult their licensed securities dealers, bank managers, solicitors, professional accountants or other professional advisers if they are in any doubt about the facilities described above.
BOARD LOT SIZE
Immediately after the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective, the board lot size for trading in the Company’s shares will remain as 5,000 Adjusted Shares.
Based on the closing price of HK$0.03 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date and the existing board lot size of 5,000 Shares, the prevailing board lot value is HK$150.00. Assuming the Capital Reorganisation becomes effective, on the basis of the aforesaid closing price and the board lot size of 5,000 Adjusted Shares, the new board lot value would be HK$3,000.00.
SGM
A notice convening the SGM is set out on pages 12 to 13 of this circular. The SGM will be convened for the purpose of considering and, if thought fit, passing the resolutions to approve the Capital Reorganisation.
To the best knowledge of the Directors, no Shareholders have a material interest in the Capital Reorganisation different to that of any other Shareholders and accordingly, no Shareholders will have to abstain from voting at the SGM.
A form of proxy for use at the SGM is enclosed. Whether or not you are able to attend the meeting in person, you are requested to complete the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the head office and principal place of business of the Company in Hong Kong at Unit 7, 2nd Floor, Kingsford Industrial Centre, 13 Wang Hoi Road, Kowloon Bay, Kowloon, Hong Kong, as soon as possible but in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the meeting.
