The Company will arrange odd lot matching services in order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any).

(3) IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

As the Open Offer will increase the issued share capital of the Company by more than 50%, pursuant to Rule 7.24(5) of the Listing Rules, the Open Offer must be made conditional on approval by Independent Shareholders in the EGM by a resolution on which any controlling Shareholders and their associates or, where there are no controlling Shareholders, Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors) and the chief executive of the Company and their respective associates shall abstain from voting in favour.

As no excess application for the Offer Shares is available under the Open Offer and the Open Offer is underwritten by TDX, pursuant to Rule 7.26A(2) of the Listing Rules, specific approval shall be obtained from the Independent Shareholders at the EGM in respect of the absence of such excess application arrangement.

Since the Company has no controlling Shareholder, all Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors) and the chief executive of the Company and their respective associates shall abstain from voting in favour of the resolution(s) approving the Open Offer and the absence of the excess application arrangement.

As at the date of this announcement, TDX, which is owned as to 99.99% by Mr. Mung, is interested in 117,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 25.02% of the issued share capital of the Company. TDX, being an associate of Mr. Mung (as an executive Director and the chairman of the Company) will therefore be required to abstain from voting in favour of the resolution(s) approving the Open Offer (including the absence of the excess application arrangement), the Underwriting Agreement and the transactions contemplated respectively thereunder at the EGM. Save as disclosed above, there are no other Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors), chief executive of the Company nor respective associates of any of them holding any Shares.

Notes:

  1. Pursuant to the TDX Undertaking, TDX has irrevocably undertaken to the Company and Kingston Securities (1) not to dispose of, or agree to dispose of, any Shares held by it from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to the close of business on the Record Date; (2) to accept or procure the acceptance for the 234,000,000 Offer Shares to be allotted and issued to TDX under its entitlement pursuant to the Open Offer; and (3) to lodge the Application Form(s) accompanied by the appropriate remittances in respect of the 234,000,000 Offer Shares prior to the Latest Time for Acceptance.

  2. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, TDX will underwrite the first 68,432,000 Underwritten Shares. The remaining Underwritten Shares (if any) will be underwritten by Kingston Securities.

  3. This scenario is for illustrative purpose only.

Under the Underwriting Agreement, in the event of Kingston Securities being called upon to subscribe for or procure subscribers for the Untaken Shares:

  • (i) Kingston Securities shall not subscribe, for its own account, for such number of Untaken Shares which will result in the shareholding of it and parties acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code) with it in the Company to exceed 19.9% of the voting rights of the Company upon the completion of the Open Offer; and

19

  • (ii) Kingston Securities shall use its best endeavours to ensure that (1) each of the subscribers of the Untaken Shares procured by it shall be Independent Third Party; and (2) save for Kingston Securities itself and its associates, shall not, together with any party acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code) with it, hold 10.0% or more of voting rights of the Company upon completion of the Open Offer.

  • Assuming that all the Optionholders (save for Mr. Mung, through TDX) do not have any shareholding in the Company.

Reasons for the Open Offer and use of proceeds

The principal activity of the Company is to act as an investment holding company. The Group principally invests in listed and unlisted companies.

The gross proceeds from the Open Offer will not be less than approximately HK$280.56 million and not more than approximately HK$281.27 million. The net proceeds from the Open Offer after deducting all relevant expenses are estimated to be not less than HK$272.00 million but not more than HK$272.70 million.

The Company intends to apply the proceeds from the Open Offer for future investment activities when such investment opportunities arise.

Although there is no specific investment target identified as at the date of this announcement, the Company intends to invest in local and international stock market which would provide an opportunity to the Group to broaden its revenue base.

The Board also considers that the Open Offer represents an opportunity for the Group to raise funding for future investment activities, which is the principal activity of the Company, while broadening its shareholder and capital base thereby increasing the liquidity of the Shares. As such, the Directors (excluding the independent nonexecutive Directors who will give their views after taking into account of the advice from Independent Financial Adviser to be set out in the circular) consider that the Underwriting Agreement is entered into upon normal commercial terms and that the terms of the Open Offer are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Those Qualifying Shareholders who do not take up the Offer Shares to which they are entitled should note that their shareholdings in the Company will be diluted.

(2) CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE

The Board announces that the board lot size of the Shares for trading on the Stock Exchange will be changed from 16,000 Shares to 32,000 Shares with effect from 9:00 a.m. on Friday, 31 July 2015.

The change in board lot size will not result in any change in the relative rights of the Shareholders. The Board is of the opinion that the change in board lot size is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

21

Based on the theoretical ex-rights price of approximately HK$0.417 per Share (calculated based on the closing price of HK$0.65 per Share as quoted on the Stock Exchange on the Last Full Trading Day), the market value of each existing board lot is HK$6,672 and the estimated market value of each proposed new board lot is HK$13,344.

To alleviate the difficulties in trading odd lots of the Shares arising from the change in board lot size of the Shares, the Company has appointed Cinda International Securities Limited as an agent to provide matching services to the Shareholders who wish to top up or sell their holdings of odd lots of the Shares during the period from 9:00 a.m. on Friday, 31 July 2015 to 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, 20 August (both dates inclusive). Holders of the Shares in odd lots represented by the existing share certificates for the Shares who wish to take advantage of this facility either to dispose of their odd lots of the Shares or to top up their odd lots to a full new board lot may directly or through their broker contact Mr. Leung Siu Wa of Cinda International Securities Limited at 45th Floor, COSCO Tower, 183 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong (telephone: (852) 2235 7801 and facsimile: (852) 2907 6390) during such period. Holders of the Shares in odd lots should note that successful matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Shares is not guaranteed. The Shareholders are recommended to consult their professional advisers if they are in doubt about the above facility.

(4) IMPLICATIONS UNDER THE LISTING RULES

As the Open Offer will increase the issued share capital of the Company by more than 50%, pursuant to Rule 7.24(5) of the Listing Rules, the Open Offer must be made conditional on approval by Independent Shareholders in the EGM by a resolution on which any controlling Shareholders and their associates or, where there are no controlling Shareholders, Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors) and the chief executive of the Company and their respective associates shall abstain from voting in favour.

As no excess application for the Offer Shares is available under the Open Offer and the Open Offer is underwritten by TDX, pursuant to Rule 7.26A(2) of the Listing Rules, specific approval shall be obtained from the Independent Shareholders at the EGM in respect of the absence of such excess application arrangement.

Since the Company has no controlling Shareholder, all Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors) and the chief executive of the Company and their respective associates shall abstain from voting in favour of the resolution(s) approving the Open Offer and the absence of the excess application arrangement.

24

As at the date of this announcement, TDX, which is owned as to 99.99% by Mr. Mung, is interested in 117,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 25.02% of the issued share capital of the Company. TDX, being an associate of Mr. Mung (as an executive Director and the chairman of the Company) will therefore be required to abstain from voting in favour of the resolution(s) approving the Open Offer (including the absence of the excess application arrangement), the Underwriting Agreement and the transactions contemplated respectively thereunder at the EGM. Save as disclosed above, there are no other Directors (excluding independent non-executive Directors), chief executive of the Company nor respective associates of any of them holding any Shares.

(5) WARNING OF THE RISK OF DEALINGS IN THE SHARES

If any of the Underwriters terminate the Underwriting Agreement in accordance with the provisions as set out in the section headed “Termination of the Underwriting Agreement” in this announcement, or the conditions of the Open Offer as set out in the section headed “Conditions of the Open Offer” in this announcement are not fulfilled, the Open Offer will not proceed. Accordingly, the Open Offer may or may not proceed.

Shareholders should note that the Shares will be dealt with on an ex-entitlement basis commencing from Monday, 29 June 2015 and that dealings in such Shares will take place while the conditions to which the Underwriting Agreement is subject remain unfulfilled.

Shareholders and potential investors should exercise extreme caution when dealing in the Shares, and if they are in any doubt about their position, they should consult their professional advisers.

(6) GENERAL

The Company has established the Independent Board Committee, which comprises all independent non-executive Directors in compliance with the Listing Rules, to advise the Independent Shareholders as to whether the terms of the Open Offer (including the absence of excess application arrangement) and the Underwriting Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, and to advise the Independent Shareholders on how to vote, taking into account the recommendations of the Independent Financial Adviser to be appointed by the Company.

25

The circular including, among other things, (i) further details about the Open Offer (including the absence of excess application arrangement) and the Underwriting Agreement; (ii) a letter of recommendation from the Independent Board Committee to the Independent Shareholders in respect of the Open Offer (including the absence of excess application arrangement) and the Underwriting Agreement; (iii) a letter of advice from the Independent Financial Adviser to the Independent Board Committee and the Independent Shareholders on the Open Offer (including the absence of excess application arrangement) and the Underwriting Agreement; and (iv) the notice convening the EGM, will be despatched to the Shareholders on or before 5 June 2015.

(7) UNUSUAL PRICE AND TRADING VOLUME MOVEMENTS

Having made such enquiries with respect to the Company as is reasonable in the circumstances, the Board confirms that save for the Open Offer, it is not aware of any reasons for such price movements or of any information which must be announced to avoid a false market in the Shares or of any inside information that needs to be disclosed under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571, Laws of Hong Kong).

This statement is made by the order of the Company. The Board collectively and individually accepts responsibility for the accuracy of this statement.
