Upon completion of the proposed Capitalization Issue on the basis of one (1) Capitalization Share for every Share held by the Shareholders whose names appear on the register of members of the Company on the Record Date and assuming that no further H Shares or Domestic Shares will be issued or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date to the completion of the proposed Capitalization Issue, an aggregate of 640,392,000 Capitalization Shares comprising 314,352,000 Capitalization H Shares and 326,040,000 Capitalization Domestic Shares will be issued, and the registered and issued share capital of the Company will be increased to RMB1,280,784,000.

The Capitalization Shares will be credited as fully paid by way of capitalization of an amount in the capital reserve account of the Company which is equal to the aggregate nominal value of the Capitalization Shares to be issued.

  • i. the proposed Capitalization Issue having been approved by the Shareholders at the AGM, the H Share Class Meeting and the Domestic Share Class Meeting of the Company, respectively; and

  • ii. the listing committee of the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Capitalization H Shares.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

III. Entitlements of the Capitalization Shares and Treatment of Fraction of Capitalization Shares

The Capitalization Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing H Shares and Domestic Shares, as the case may be, in issue on the Record Date. Holders of the Capitalization Shares will be entitled to receive all future dividends and distributions (if any) which are declared, made or paid after the date on which the Capitalization Shares are allotted and issued, but will not be entitled to the final dividend of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2013 which is subject to the approval of the Shareholders at the AGM.

On the basis of one (1) Capitalization Share for every Share held by the Shareholders on the Record Date, the Company will not allot any fraction of the Capitalization Shares pursuant to the proposed Capitalization Issue.

IV. Effect of the Proposed Capitalization Issue on the Shareholding Structure of the Company

Set out below is the shareholding structure of the Company as at the Latest Practicable Date and upon completion of the proposed Capitalization Issue (assuming that no further H Shares or Domestic Shares will be issued or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date to the completion of the proposed Capitalization Issue):

V. Overseas Shareholders

The Company will make enquiry regarding the legal restrictions under the laws of the relevant place and the requirements of the relevant regulatory body or stock exchange and upon the enquiry, if the Board is of the view that for Overseas Shareholders who will not be entitled to the Capitalization Shares because of the legal restrictions under the laws or statutory regulations of their jurisdiction or the requirements of the stock exchange in that jurisdiction, arrangements will be made for the Capitalization Shares which would otherwise have been issued to the Overseas Shareholders to be sold in the market as soon as practicable after dealings commence, if a premium, net of expenses, can be obtained. Any net proceeds of such sale for each Overseas Shareholder, after deduction of expenses, of HK$100 or more will be distributed in Hong Kong dollars to the relevant Overseas Shareholder, by ordinary post at their own risk, unless the amount falling to be distributed to any such person is less than HK$100 in which case it will be retained for the benefit of the Company.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

VI. Listing and Dealings

Application will be made to the listing committee of the Stock Exchange for the approval of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Capitalization H Shares.

Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Capitalization H Shares on the Stock Exchange and the compliance on stock admission required by HKSCC, the Capitalization H Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in the CCASS with effect from the date of commencement of dealings in the Capitalization H Shares or such other date as determined by HKSCC.

VII. Share Certificates

Subject to the fulfilment of the conditions to the Capitalization Issue as set out in paragraph II above, certificates of the Capitalization H Shares are expected to be despatched by ordinary mail to the persons entitled thereto on or before Wednesday, 2 July 2014 to their respective addresses shown in the register of members of H Shares or in the case of joint holders, to the address of the joint holder whose name stands first in the register of members of H Shares.

VIII. Taxation

Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC, and after consulting with relevant PRC tax authority, Shareholders will not be subject to the withholding of any income tax by reason of their holding of the Capitalization Shares.

IX. Reasons for the Proposed Capitalization Issue

The Board believes that the Capitalization Issue i) will allow the Shareholders to participate in the growth of the Company by way of conversion of the capital reserve; ii) will provide the Company with a wider capital base and therefore increase the marketability of the Shares; and iii) is a return to the long-term support and care of the Shareholders.

Other than the expenses incurred by and in relation to the proposed Capitalization Issue, the proposed Capitalization Issue will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the interests of its Shareholders. The Board believes that the proposed Capitalization Issue will not have any adverse impact on the financial position of the Company.
