CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GEM
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration.
Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information in respect of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM for the approval of (i) granting the Directors general mandates to buy-backs and issue Shares; (ii) the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size; and (iii) re-elect the retiring Directors.
— 6 —
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
BUY-BACKS MANDATE
The GEM Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to buy-backs their own Shares, subject to certain restrictions, on the Stock Exchange. At the AGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed to grant the Directors a general mandate to, inter alia, buy-backs a maximum of 145,362,311 Shares on the Stock Exchange or on another stock exchange on which the shares may be listed and recognised for this purpose by the securities and Futures commission and the Stock Exchange under the code on share buy-backs, representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the AGM assuming no further Shares will be issued nor bought back after the Latest Practicable Date up to the date of the AGM. The Buy-backs Mandate will end on (i) the conclusion of the first annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of the resolution; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or any applicable law to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.
The Company is required by the particular rules in the GEM Listing Rules regulating such share buy-backs to send to Shareholders an explanatory statement containing all the information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the Buy-backs Mandate. The explanatory statement required by the GEM Listing Rules to be included in this circular is set out in the Appendix I to this circular.
ISSUE MANDATE
Approval is being sought from the Shareholders of the Company (i) to grant a general mandate in order to ensure flexibility and discretion to the Directors in the event it becomes desirable for the Company to issue new Shares up to a maximum of 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the AGM and (ii) to extend the Issue Mandate by the number of Shares bought back by the Company under the Buy-backs Mandate.
Based on 1,453,623,111 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming no further Shares will be issued nor bought back after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the AGM, the Directors will be able to allot, issue and deal with for up to a total of 290,724,622 Shares if the Issue Mandate is granted at the AGM. The Issue Mandate will end on (i) the conclusion of the first annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of the resolution; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or any applicable law to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest. The obtaining of such a mandate is in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION AND CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE
The Board proposes to implement the Share Consolidation on the basis that every ten (10) issued and unissued Existing Shares with par value of HK$0.01 each in the share capital of the Company be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share with par value of HK$0.1 each.
Effects of the Share Consolidation
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the authorised share capital of the Company is HK$20,000,000 divided into 2,000,000,000 Existing Shares with par value of HK$0.01 each, of which 1,453,623,111 Existing Shares have been issued and are fully paid or credited as fully paid. Assuming no further Existing Shares will be issued, allotted or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the AGM, upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the authorised share capital of the Company will become HK$20,000,000 divided into 200,000,000 Consolidated Shares with par value of HK$0.1 each, of which 145,362,311 Consolidated Shares (which are fully paid or credited as fully paid) will be in issue.
Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects with each other.
Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders, save for any fractional Consolidated Shares will not be allocated to the Shareholders who may otherwise be entitled.
Save as disclosed above, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company does not have any other outstanding derivatives, options, warrants, conversion rights, securities in issue, convertible securities or other similar rights which are convertible or exchangeable into, any Existing Shares or Consolidated Shares.
Conditions of the Share Consolidation
The Share Consolidation is conditional upon the following conditions:
(i) the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the AGM to approve the Share Consolidation;
(ii) the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective; and
(iii) the compliance with all relevant procedures and requirements under the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the GEM Listing Rules to effect the Share Consolidation.
— 8 —
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Subject to the fulfilment of the above conditions, the Share Consolidation is expected to become effective on Thursday, 22 May 2025, being the second Business Day immediately following the date of the AGM.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the above conditions has been fulfilled.
Application for Listing of the Consolidated Shares
An application has been made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.
Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange, as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of the HKSCC, the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second settlement day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of HKSCC and HKSCC Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Consolidated Shares to be admitted into CCASS established and operated by HKSCC.
None of the Existing Shares is listed or dealt in on any other stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and at the time the Share Consolidation becomes effective, the Consolidated Shares in issue will not be listed or dealt in on any stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and no such listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought.
The Consolidated 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.
PROPOSED CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Existing Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange in the board lots of 10,000 Existing Shares. It is proposed that, subject to and conditional upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the board lot size for trading on the Stock Exchange be changed from 10,000 Existing Shares to 5,000 Consolidated Shares.
Based on the closing price of HK$0.046 per Existing Share (equivalent to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.46 per Consolidated Share) as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date, (i) the value per board lot of 10,000 Existing Shares is HK$460; and (ii) the market value of each board lot of 5,000 Consolidated Shares would be HK$2,300 assuming that the Share Consolidation becomes effective.
The Change in Board Lot Size will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
OTHER ARRANGEMENTS
Fractional entitlement to Consolidated Shares
Fractional Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation, if any, will be disregarded and will not be issued to the Shareholders, but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefit of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Existing Shares regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.
Exchange of share certificates for the Consolidated Shares
Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, which is currently expected to be on Thursday, 22 May 2025, Shareholders may, during the period from Thursday, 22 May 2025 to Friday, 27 June 2025 (both days inclusive), submit share certificates for the Existing Shares (in blue colour) to the Registrar at 17/F, Far East Finance Centre, 16 Harcourt Road, Hong Kong, during business hours, in exchange, at the expense of the Company, for new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares (in green colour). Thereafter, share certificates for the Existing Shares will be accepted for exchange only on payment of a fee of HK$2.50 (or such other amount as may be allowed by the Stock Exchange from time to time) for each share certificate for the Existing Shares cancelled or each new share certificate issued for the Consolidated Shares, whichever the number of certificates cancelled/issued is higher.
The existing share certificates will only be valid for delivery, trading and settlement purposes for the period up to 4:10 p.m. on Wednesday, 25 June 2025, and thereafter will not be accepted for delivery, trading and settlement purposes. However, the existing share certificates will remain valid and effective as documents of title to the Consolidated Shares on the basis of every ten (10) Existing Shares for one (1) Consolidated Share. The new share certificates for the Consolidated Shares will be issued in green colour in order to distinguish them from the share certificates for the Existing Shares which are in blue colour.
Arrangement on odd lot trading and matching services
In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) of the Consolidated Shares arising from the Share Consolidation, the Company had appointed Phillip Securities (Hong Kong) Limited as an agent to provide matching services, on a best effort basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full board lot, or to dispose of their holding of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 5 June 2025 to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 25 June 2025 (both days inclusive). Shareholders who wish to take advantage of this facility should contact Mr. Aric Au or Mr. Yam, Shun Hung of Phillip Securities (Hong Kong) Limited at 11th floor, United Centre, 95 Queensway, Hong Kong (telephone: (852) 2277-6769 or (852) 2277-6615) during office hours of such period.
Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares should note that the matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares is not guaranteed. Shareholders who are in any doubt about the odd lots matching arrangement are recommended to consult their own professional advisers.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
REASONS FOR THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION AND THE CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE
Pursuant to Rule 17.76 of the GEM Listing Rules, where the market price of the securities of the issuer approaches the extremities of HK$0.01 or HK$9,995, the Stock Exchange reserves the right to require the issuer either to change the trading method or to proceed with a consolidation or splitting of its securities. The "Guide on Trading Arrangements for Selected Types of Corporate Actions" issued by the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited on 28 November 2008 and last updated in September 2024 has further stated that (i) market price of the shares at a level less than HK$0.10 each will be considered as trading at extremity as referred to under Rule 17.76 of the GEM Listing Rules; and (ii) taking into account the minimum transaction costs for a securities trade, the expected value per board lot should be greater than HK$2,000. Shareholders should take note that Shareholders' approval is not required for the Change in Board Lot Size.
The Shares are currently traded on the Stock Exchange in the board lot size of 10,000 Existing Shares. Based on the closing price of HK$0.046 per Existing Share (equivalent to the theoretical closing price of HK$0.46 per Consolidated Share) as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date, (i) the value per board lot of 10,000 Existing Shares is HK$460; and (ii) the market value of each board lot of 5,000 Consolidated Shares would be HK$2,300 assuming that the Share Consolidation becomes effective.
In view of the recent trading price of the Shares, the Board considers that the Share Consolidation will increase the board lot value of the Existing Shares, thereby enabling the Company to comply with the trading requirements under the GEM Listing Rules. Further, the Share Consolidation would reduce the overall transaction and handling costs of dealings in the Shares as a proportion of the market value of each board lot, since most of the banks/securities houses will charge a minimum transaction cost for each securities trade, regardless of the size or value of the transaction. Currently, the low market value of each board lot results in transaction and handling costs which represent a disproportionately high percentage of the market value of each securities trade. By consolidating the shares, the market value of each board lot will increase, thereby reducing the relative proportion of transaction and handling costs to the market value of each securities trade. With a corresponding upward adjustment in the trading price of the Consolidated Shares and an increase in the net asset value per Share, the Board believes that the Share Consolidation will enhance the corporate image of the Company so as to make investing in the Shares more attractive to a broader range of prospective investors, and therefore further broaden the shareholder base of the Company. Further, the Board expects that the Change in Board Lot Size will lower the threshold for investors to purchase the Shares, thus facilitating the trading and improving the liquidity of the Shares, which will enable the Company to attract more investors and therefore broaden the shareholders' base of the Company.
— 11 —
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not, by itself, alter the underlying assets, business operation, management or financial position of the Group or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Board believes that the Share Consolidation will not have any material adverse effect on the financial position of the Group nor result in a change in the relative rights of the Shareholders. Although the Share Consolidation may lead to the creation of odd lots of Shares, the Company has arranged a securities broker to provide matching services for odd lots of Shares for a period of approximately three weeks, which will alleviate the difficulties caused by the creation of odd lots of Shares.
In view of the above reasons, the Company considers the proposed Share Consolidation and Change in Board Lot Size are justifiable notwithstanding of the potential costs and impact arising from creation of odd lots to Shareholders. Accordingly, the Board considers that the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size are beneficial to and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size, the Company has no intention to carry out other corporate actions or arrangements, in the next 12 months, which may have an effect of undermining or negating the intended purpose of the Share Consolidation and the Change in Board Lot Size.
The Company does not have any other concrete plan or arrangement to conduct any other fund raising activities in the next 12 months. However, the Board cannot rule out the possibility that the Company will conduct debt and/or equity fund raising exercises when suitable fund raising and/or investment opportunities arise in order to meet its operational needs or support future development of the Group. The Company will make further announcement in this regard in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules as and when appropriate.
RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS
Pursuant to the Articles 14.4 to 14.9 of the Company's Articles of Association, Dr. Yim Yuk Lun, Stanley SBS BBS JP, Mr. Chan Ka Ho, Ms. Yim Kei Man, Carmen, Mr. Wong Wai Tai, Mr. Fung Cheuk Nang, Clement and Mr. Lau Sun Tao, Gary shall retire by rotation at the AGM. All the retiring Directors, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the AGM. Their details are set out in Appendix II to this circular.
Mr. Fung Cheuk Nang, Clement ("Mr. Clement Fung") has served as independent non-executive Director for more than 9 years. In compliance with code provision B.2.3 in the corporate governance code of the GEM Listing Rules, the re-election of Mr. Clement Fung will be subject to separate resolution to be approved by Shareholders at the AGM. The Board of Directors of the Company, based on the Nomination Committee's recommendation, has reviewed Mr. Clement Fung's role as an independent non-executive Director (INED), given his service of over nine years.
— 12 —
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Mr. Clement Fung consistently provides independent judgment, objective oversight, and valuable input in Board discussions. He has played a key role in strategic planning, risk management, and corporate governance. His consumer electronic knowledge and experience have significantly enhanced Board discussions and decisions. He has no financial or business ties with the Company, its subsidiaries, or major shareholders and he is not involved in the daily management of the Company nor in any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment.
The Nomination Committee assessed Mr. Clement Fung’s independence under the Corporate Governance Code and found no concerns. The Board and Nomination Committee agreed that he remains independent and valuable to the Company. In view of the above, the Board and Nomination Committee support Mr. Clement Fung’s re-election. A resolution will be proposed for shareholder approval at the AGM.
The re-appointment of the above Directors has been reviewed by the Nomination Committee of the Company which made recommendation to the Board that the re-election be proposed for Shareholders’ approval at the AGM. The Nomination Committee of the Company has also assessed the independence of all the independent non-executive Directors. All the independent non-executive Directors satisfy the criteria set out in rule 5.09 of the GEM Listing Rules and has given an annual confirmation of his independence to the Company.
In addition, the Nomination Committee had evaluated the performance of each of the retiring Directors for the Year and found their performance satisfactory.

APPENDIX I
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
The GEM Listing Rules permit companies with primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their fully paid-up Shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.
The following is the explanatory statement required to be sent to the Shareholders under the GEM Listing Rules to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution in relation to the grant of the Buy-backs Mandate.
1. SHARE CAPITAL
As at 14 April 2025, being the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,453,623,111 Shares. Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolution and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or bought back during the period between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of the AGM, the Company will be allowed under the Buy-backs Mandate to buy-backs a maximum of 145,362,311 Shares on the Stock Exchange or on another stock exchange on which the Shares may be listed and recognised for this purpose by the securities and Futures commission and the Stock Exchange under the code on share buy-backs, representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the AGM until (i) the conclusion of the first annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of the resolution; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Bye-laws or any applicable law to be held; or (iii) the revocation or variation by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting, whichever is the earliest.
2. REASONS FOR BUY-BACKS
The Directors believe that the Buy-backs Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Such buy-backs may, depending on whether the Shares are trading at prices below the Company's net asset value per Share and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net value per Share and its assets and/or its earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such buy-backs will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.
3. FUNDING OF BUY-BACKS
In buying back Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the GEM Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.
— 18 —
APPENDIX I
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
On the basis of the current financial position of the Group as disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as at 31 December 2024, being the date to which the latest published audited consolidated financial statements of the Company were made up, the Directors consider that, if the Proposed Buy-backs Mandate were to be exercised in full, it might have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or the gearing position of the Group as compared with the position disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as at 31 December 2024. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Proposed Buy-backs Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Group or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Group.
4. GENERAL
None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and belief having made all reasonable enquiries, their close associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company any Shares under the Buy-backs Mandate if such is approved by the Shareholders.
No core connected persons (as defined in the GEM Listing Rules) of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Buy-backs 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 exercise the Buy-backs Mandate pursuant to the proposed resolution in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules and the laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles of Association.
The Company has not bought back any Shares in the six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).
If as a result of the exercise of the power to buy-backs Shares pursuant to the Buy-backs Mandate, 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 Takeover Code. As a result a Shareholder, or 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 Takeover Code.
Neither the explanatory statement nor the proposed share repurchase has any unusual features.
