The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding the resolutions to be proposed at the 2013 Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held on Thursday, 12th September, 2013 (the “AGM”), as required by the relevant rules set out in the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Listing Rules”).

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the AGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed that the Directors be granted a general and unconditional mandate to exercise all powers of the Company to repurchase on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) or on any other stock exchange on which the Shares of the Company may be listed, Shares up to a maximum of 10 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution (the “Repurchase Mandate”).

GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

An ordinary resolution will also be proposed that the Directors be granted a general and unconditional mandate to issue, allot and dispose of Shares up to a maximum of 20 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution (the “Issue Mandate”). On the basis that there is no change in the issued share capital of the Company from 25th July, 2013, being the latest practicable date prior to the printing of this circular (the “Latest Practicable Date”) to the date of passing the relevant resolution, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the Issue Mandate is 202,231,034.

In addition, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM adding any Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate to the Issue Mandate. The Repurchase Mandate and the Issue Mandate would continue in force until the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by law or the Bye-laws to be held; and (iii) its revocation or variation by ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) in a general meeting.

An explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to be sent to the Shareholders in connection with the proposed general mandate to repurchase Shares is set out in Appendix I 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 resolutions at the AGM.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

In relation to Resolution Number 3 as set out in the notice of the AGM, The Hon. Tien Pei Chun, James and Mr. Lau Yuen Sun, Adrian will retire from office as Directors at the AGM and being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election pursuant to Bye-law 87 of the Bye-laws.

As both Mr. Tien and Mr. Lau have served as an Independent Non-executive Director of the Company for more than nine years, their respective further appointment will be subject to separate resolution to be approved by Shareholders. Both Mr. Tien and Mr. Lau do not have any interest in the Shares within the meaning of Part XV of the Securities and Futures Ordinance, nor does any of them have any relationship with any other Directors, senior management or any

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

substantial or controlling shareholders of the Company. Given that both Mr. Tien and Mr. Lau have been an Independent Non-executive Director of the Company for a number of years, they are very familiar with the business and operation of the Group as well as relevant responsibilities, obligations and requirements under the Listing Rules for being an Independent Non-executive Director. The Company is not aware of any manner which may indicate that either Mr. Tien or Mr. Lau cannot remain as an Independent Non-executive Director of the Company. Having considered the background and experiences of Mr. Tien and Mr. Lau, the Board is of the view that they have the expertise allowing them to discharge their duty as an Independent Non-executive Director and to give independent competent advice to the Company and it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole that both Mr. Tien and Mr. Lau be re-elected as an Independent Non-executive Director of the Company.

Further details of the retiring Directors, which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the Listing Rules, are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Notice of the AGM is set out in Appendix III to this circular. A proxy form for appointing proxy is dispatched with this circular and published on the website of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk). Whether or not you intend to attend the AGM, you are requested to complete the proxy and return it to the Company’s Branch Share Registrars in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited, at 26th Floor, Tesbury Centre, 28 Queen’s Road East, Hong Kong not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the AGM or the adjourned meeting. Completion and return of a proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting at the meeting and at any adjournment thereof if you so wish.

VOTING BY POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, all resolutions set out in AGM Notice will be decided by poll. The results of the poll will be published on the websites of the Stock Exchange and the Company.

The Directors therefore recommend the Shareholders to vote in favor of the all the proposed resolutions as set out in the notice of the AGM.

Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of the Board Li Kwok Wai, Frankie Director

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

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

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at Latest Practicable Date, there was a total of 1,011,155,171 Shares in issue.

Subject to the passing of the resolution granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the Company will be allowed a repurchase a maximum of 101,115,517 Shares, representing 10% of the issued share capital of the Company.

2. 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 its 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 and/or earnings per share of the Company and will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Repurchases made pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate would be funded out of funds legally available for the purpose in accordance with the Company’s bye-laws and the applicable laws of Bermuda. Under the laws of Bermuda, the repurchased shares will be cancelled and the Company’s issued share capital will be reduced by the nominal value of those repurchased shares accordingly. However, the aggregate amount of the Company’s authorized capital will not be reduced.

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 audited accounts contained in the Annual Report for the year ended 31st March, 2013) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate 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 Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels of the Company.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquires, any of their associates, has any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will only exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Bermuda, and in accordance with the regulations set out in the bye-laws of the Company.

The Company has not been notified by any connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) that such a person has a present intention to sell, or has undertaken not to sell, any Shares to the Company, if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX I

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 Rule 32 of the Hong Kong Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “Code”). Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, 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, Antrix Investment Limited (“Antrix”), a company beneficially owned by Messrs. Fang Hung, Kenneth and Li Kwok Wai, Frankie, together with parties acting in concert with it (including but not limited to Messrs. Fang Hung, Kenneth and Li Kwok Wai, Frankie) held a beneficial interest of 758,344,381 Shares in, representing approximately 75.00 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company. If the Repurchase Mandate were exercised in full, the relevant percentage would increase to 83.33 per cent. Any repurchase of Shares by the Company will not oblige Antrix to make a general offer. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which would give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Code. The Directors have no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent which will result in less than 25 per cent. of the Shares being held by public.

Save as disclosed above, the Directors are currently not aware of any consequence which will arise under the Code as a result of any purchase made under the Repurchase Mandate.

No Shares had been repurchased by the Company, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise, in the last six months preceding the date of this circular.
