LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Consideration

The Consideration for the Disposal in the total sum of RMB47,276,900 (or equivalent to approximately HK$58,151,000) has been determined after arm’s length negotiations among the parties to the Disposal Agreement in accordance with requirements of the applicable policy and regulations and the Implementation Method after taking into account the actual circumstances. The Consideration comprises:

  • (1) a sum of RMB27,608,000 (or equivalent to approximately HK$33,958,000), being payment in the nature of compensation, which is determined by valuation of the Land, the buildings and fixtures thereon conducted by a qualified valuation agency accredited by the relevant governmental authorities in the PRC;

  • (2) a sum of RMB19,433,700 (or equivalent to approximately HK$23,904,000), being the aggregate sum of subsidies and award granted by the Purchaser to Zhejiang Yusei, which is determined with reference to the size of the Land and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Implementation Method; and

  • (3) a sum of RMB235,200 (or equivalent to approximately HK$289,000), being a discretionary payment made by the Purchaser to Zhejiang Yusei for its cooperation with the Purchaser in relation to the implementation of Implementation Method.

The Consideration shall be satisfied in the following manner:–

  • (a) RMB23,638,400 shall be paid in cash by the Purchaser to Zhejiang Yusei within one week after de-registration of the certificates of title of the Land to be delivered by Zhejiang Yusei to the Purchaser; and

  • (b) the remaining balance of RMB23,638,500 shall be paid in cash by the Purchaser to Zhejiang Yusei within 10 days after Completion.

Asset to be disposed of

Pursuant to the Disposal Agreement, Zhejiang Yusei has conditionally agreed to sell and the Purchaser has conditionally agreed to acquire the land located at No. 8, Youcheng Road, Xiaoshan Economic and Technological Development Zone, Zhejiang, the PRC with area of approximately 13,141 square meters.

Zhejiang Yusei has office building, warehouses, a small-scaled factory operated with separate moulding machineries and staff quarters on the Land. The production capacity of the small-scaled factory is minimal to the Group. After the vacation of the Land, the above facilities and the head office and principal place of business in the PRC will be relocated to the Group’s other premises located at Henggengtou Village, Guali Town, Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, the PRC. The Directors expect that the temporary suspension of production and relocation of the small-scaled factory will be completed within a short period of time (10 days) and hence it has no significant impact on the Group’s revenue.

Based on the above and the Consideration to be received, the Directors are of the view that the Disposal is in the interst of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

  • 5 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Condition precedent

The Disposal Agreement shall take effect upon the approval by the Shareholders at the EGM.

Completion

Subject to the Disposal Agreement being approved by the Shareholders, Zhejiang Yusei shall deliver the Land together with the buildings and fixtures thereon to the Purchaser before 31 December 2012.

GAIN ON THE DISPOSAL AND USE OF PROCEEDS

As a result of the Disposal, the Group is expected to record an unaudited gain of approximately RMB42,288,900, which is calculated on the basis of the Consideration of the Disposal of RMB47,276,900 less the unaudited carrying value of the Land together with the buildings and fixture amounted to approximately RMB4,988,000 as at 30 June 2012.

Currently, the Company repaid the bank indebtedness of approximately RMB19,000,000 (or equivalent to approximately HK$23,370,000), which was previously secured by the pledge of the Land in favour of a bank, and the relevant charge was released upon repayment. The Land will be sold free from encumbrances. The net sale proceeds from the Disposal, being the Consideration less the estimated expenses of approximately RMB300,000 in relation to the Disposal, will be used as additional working capital for the Group.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE DISPOSAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Group is principally engaged in moulding fabrication, manufacturing and trading of moulds and plastic components in the PRC.

Zhejiang Yusei originally acquired the Land for construction of manufacturing plants, staff quarters and office buildings. However, after the promulgation of the Implementation Method, it is necessary to make adjustments to the usage of the Land from industrial use to tertiary industries’ use. In addition, the Directors believe that the Disposal represents a good opportunity for the Group to realize the value of the Land with positive return. Moreover, the proceeds from the Disposal could enhance the Group’s financial position by providing additional capital resources for the Group to improve the liquidity of the Group, which would help maximise the Shareholders’ value.

The Directors also consider that the terms and conditions of the Disposal are on normal commercial terms, fair and reasonable and are in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

EFFECT OF THE DISPOSAL ON THE EARNINGS AND ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF THE COMPANY

The Valuation of the Land which was revalued by Avista Valuation Advisory Limited as at 30 September 2012 was approximately RMB15,375,000. The carrying value of the Land as at 30 September 2012 was approximately RMB4,763,000. The audited consolidated net asset value of the Group as at 31 December 2011 was approximately RMB212,034,000.

  • 6 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The financial effects to the Group upon completion of the Disposal are expected to be:

  • (i) a decrease in non-current assets of approximately RMB4,763,000;

  • (ii) an increase in current assets of approximately RMB46,976,900, being the cash consideration of the Disposal of RMB47,276,900 less the estimated expenses of approximately RMB300,000 in relation to the Disposal; and

  • (iii) an increase in profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company of approximately RMB42,213,900, being the difference between the carrying value of the Land of RMB4,763,000 as at 30 September 2012 and the net consideration of RMB46,976,900 after taking into account of the estimated expenses of approximately RMB300,000 in relation to the Disposal.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATION OF THE DISPOSAL

Since certain applicable percentage ratio for the Disposal is more than 25% but less than 75%, the Disposal constitutes a major transaction for the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and is subject to the reporting, announcement and shareholders’ approval requirements under the Listing Rules. As no Shareholders have any material interest in the Disposal, it is expected that no Shareholders will be required to abstain from voting at the EGM on the resolution to approve the Disposal Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

APPENDIX I

5. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS

The Group is principally engaged in the design, development and fabrication of precision plastic injection moulds, and the manufacture of plastic components in the PRC. The Group also provides services for certain assembling and further processing of plastic components for its customers. The Group’s customers include the manufacturers of Japanese branded home electrical appliances, office equipment and automobiles’ components with production facilities located in the PRC. As disclosed in the interim report of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2012 (the “Period”), the Group reported total revenue for the Period was approximately RMB512,772,000 (2011: RMB430,922,000) and the profit for the Period was approximately RMB8,098,000 (2011: RMB19,151,000).

It is the Group’s current strategy and business plan to put more resources on (i) the production of high-end plastic injection mould products and certain assembling and further processing of plastic components, (ii) targeting new well-known international branded manufacturers and (iii) developing new products of a high standard of precision for office equipment, lights and security items for automobiles and electrical appliances, thereby achieving the steady growth of the business, and enhancing its position as a one-stop total solution provider in the plastic injection moulding industry.

The uncertain worldwide economic prospects would continue to pose great challenge and risks in the coming year, particularly affecting the Group’s profit for the current year. In addition, the recent unfavourable political relationship between Chinese and Japanese governments may influence the Chinese consumers’ behaviour towards Japanese branded electrical appliances, office equipment and automobiles which would hinder the Group’s growth in revenue and profit. However, the market outlook of the Group in long term is positive since the management believes that the Group, as a service provider to the well-known international branded manufacturers, possesses the managerial characteristics which our major customers may appreciate, including: (i) high-level demand on the quality of the products, particularly in the automotive parts and components, office automation machines like assembling parts of photocopies and printers must meet a high standard of precision in order to ensure the machine work effectively; (ii) emphasis on production efficiency to shorten the production cycle; and (iii) active participation in production process of the suppliers to ensure the product quality and the mutual communication to improve the suppliers’ production efficiency. In addition, the Group is able to make use of comparative technical advantage to targeting new well-known international branded manufacturers and developing new products of a high standard of precision for office equipment, lights and security items for automobiles and electrical appliances, thereby achieving the steady growth of the business, improving the products’ profit margin and minimizing the effect of economic downturn and political factor on the Group.

On the other hand, the Group implements conservative fiscal policy in order to maintain the sufficient working capital by imposing strict control of excessive capital investment, enhancing inventory management, and strengthening the accounts receivable management. Moreover, the proceeds from the Disposal could enhance the Group’s financial position by providing additional capital resources for the Group to improve the liquidity of the Group.

Looking forward, with its management execution strengths and market strategies, the Group will strive to further enhance its competitive position and aim to enhance the shareholder’s return.

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

==> picture [101 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

23 November 2012

The Board of Directors Yusei Holdings Limited Unit 1, 9/F Fortune Commercial Building 362 Sha Tsui Road Tsuen Wan New Territories, Hong Kong

Dear Sirs/Madams,

We were instructed by Yusei Holdings Limited (友成控股有限公司) (the “Company”) to value the property interests held by Zhejiang Yusei Plastics & Mould Co., Ltd (浙江友成塑料模具有限公司) located in No. 8 Youcheng Road, Xiaoshan Economy and Technology Development Zone, Zhejiang, the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), we confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and searches and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the capital value of the property interests as at 30 September 2012 (the “Date of Valuation”).

The valuation is our opinion of market value which in accordance with the Valuation Standards on Properties of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors is defined as “the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently, and without compulsion”.

In valuing the property interests, we have complied with all the requirements contained in Chapter 5 and Practice Note 12 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities issued by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited; the HKIS Valuation Standards on Properties (1st Edition 2005) published by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors and the International Valuation Standards published by the International Valuation Standards Council.

Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the owner sells the property interests in the open market without the benefit of a deferred term contract, leaseback, joint venture, management agreement or any similar arrangement which would serve to increase the value of the property interests. In addition, no account has been taken of any option or right of pre-emption concerning or affecting the sale of the property interests and no forced sale situation in any manner is assumed in our valuation.

Where, due to the nature of the buildings and structures of the properties, there are no market sales comparable readily available, we have valued a property on the basis of its depreciated replacement cost.

  • 11 -

APPENDIX II

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

Depreciated replacement cost is defined as “the current cost of replacement (reproduction) of a property less deductions for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization.” It is based on an estimate of the market value for the existing use of the land, plus the current cost of replacement (reproduction) of the improvements, less deductions for physical deterioration and all relevant forms of obsolescence and optimization. The depreciated replacement cost of the property interest is subject to adequate potential profitability of the concerned business.

We have been shown copies of various title documents relating to the property interests and have made relevant enquiries. Where possible, we have examined the original documents to verify the existing title to the property interests in the PRC and any material encumbrance that might be attached to the property interests or any tenancy amendment. We have relied considerably on the advice given by the Company’s PRC legal advisers – 京衡律師集團事務所, concerning the validity of the property interests in the PRC.

We have relied to a very considerable extent on the information given to us by the Company in the course of valuation. We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Company which is material to the valuation. We have accepted advice given to us on such matters as title, planning approvals, statutory notices, easements, tenure, leases, particulars of occupancy, identification of property, site and floor areas and all other relevant matters.

Dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuation certificate are based on information contained in the documents provided to us and are therefore only approximations. No on-site measurements have been made to verify their correctness. We have been advised by the Company that no material factors have been omitted from the information supplied to reach an informed view, and have no reason to suspect that any material information has been withheld.

We have not carried out detailed site measurements to verify the correctness of the land or building areas in respect of the property but have assumed that the areas provided to us are correct. Based on our experience of valuation of similar properties in the PRC, we consider the assumptions so made to be reasonable. All documents and contracts have been used as reference only and all dimensions, measurements and areas are approximations. We have also assumed that there was not any material change of the property in between date of our inspection and the valuation date.

We have inspected the exterior and, where possible, the interior of the appraised property. However, we must point out that we have not carried out a structural survey nor have we inspected woodwork or other parts of the structures which are covered, unexposed or inaccessible, we are therefore unable to report and any such part of the property are free from rot, infestation or any other defects. No tests were carried out on any of the services. We have assumed that utility services, such as electricity, telephone, water, etc., are available and free from defect.

Moreover, we have not carried out any site investigation to determine the suitability of the ground conditions or the services for any property development erected or to be erected thereon. Nor did we undertake archaeological, ecological or environmental surveys for the property interests. Our valuation is prepared on the assumption that these aspects are satisfactory and that no extraordinary expenses or delays will be incurred during the construction period. Should it be discovered that contamination, subsidence or other latent defects exists in the property or on adjoining or neighbouring land or that the property had been or are being put to contaminated use, we reserve right to revise our opinion of value.

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

APPENDIX II

No allowance has been made in our report for any charges, mortgages or amounts owing on the property interests nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the property interests are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their value.

In accordance with our standard practice, this valuation certificate is for the exclusive use of the party to whom it is addressed and no responsibility is accepted to the third party for the whole or any part of its contents.

Unless otherwise stated, all monetary figures stated in this report are in Renminbi (RMB).

Our valuation is summarized below and the valuation certificates are attached.

(d) Directors’ interests in competing businesses

Yusei Japan beneficially owns 46% of the equity interest of the Company. With its production and business operations based in Japan, Yusei Japan is principally engaged in the design, fabrication and sales of plastic injection moulds, and, to a lesser extent, the manufacture and sales of plastic component products. The plastic injection moulds fabricated by Yusei Japan are mainly applicable for the manufacture of headlight components including glass lens and reflector, automobile gauge board and other interior components for automobiles. Furthermore, Yusei Japan also fabricates plastic injection moulds for the manufacturing of peripheral plastic components for air conditioners and component parts for fishing tools.

Yusei Japan is owned as to approximately 25.8% by Conpri, as to approximately 21.9% by Mr. Masuda, as to approximately 12.1% by Mr. Akio Suzuki, as to approximately 2.1% by Mrs. Echiko Masuda and as to approximately 1.7% by Mr. Toshimitsu Masuda, as to 30% by Tokyo Small and Medium Business Investment & Consultation Co., Ltd., respectively and as to approximately 6.4% held by Yusei Japan itself as a result of share repurchase, which according to the confirmation of a practicing Japanese law firm, need not be extinguished from the issued share capital of Yusei Japan under Japanese laws. Conpri is a company incorporated in Japan with limited liability and is owned as to 50% by Mr. Toshimitsu Masuda, as to 30% by Mr. Masuda, and as to 20% by Mrs. Echiko Masuda. Mrs. Echiko Masuda and Mr. Toshimitsu Masuda are the spouse and son of Mr. Masuda, respectively. Mr. Katsutoshi Masuda and Mr. Toshimitsu Masuda are the Company’s non-executive directors.

Notwithstanding that the Group and Yusei Japan are engaged in similar business activities to certain extent, there is a clear delineation and independence of the Group’s business from that of Yusei Japan. In particular, the Group’s target markets (being the PRC, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Macau Special Administrative Region of the PRC) (the “ Group’s Exclusive Markets ”) are territorially different from that of Yusei Japan. The locations of the production facilities are different and separate between the Group and Yusei Japan. The management responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Group and Yusei Japan is also different. The Directors believe that Yusei Japan does not compete with the Group.

Notwithstanding that the Directors believe that Yusei Japan does not compete with the Group, to clearly delineate the business operations of the Group from that of Yusei Japan and to avoid any possible future competition with the Group, Yusei Japan and its shareholders (collectively the “ Covenantors ”) have entered into a deed of non-competition dated 19 September 2005 and a supplemental deed of non-competition on 3 December 2010, pursuant to which each of the Covenantors irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes and covenants with the Company that each of the Covenantors shall:

  • (1) not either on his/her/its own account or for any other person, firm or company, and (if applicable) shall procure that its subsidiaries (other than the Company and any member of the Group) or companies controlled by each of the Covenantors shall not either on its own behalf or as agent for any person, firm or company and either directly or indirectly (whether as a shareholder, partner, consultant or otherwise and whether for profit, reward or otherwise) at any time solicit, interfere with or endeavour to entice away from any

  • (4) not directly or indirectly sell, distribute, supply or otherwise provide any products that are within the Group’s Product Portfolio where the relevant Covenantor(s) know(s), or is reasonably regarded as should have known, that such products are destined to be re-sold, re-distributed or re-supplied for the purpose of commercial exploitation in the Group’s Exclusive Markets;

  • (6) not do or say anything which may be harmful to the reputation of any member of the Group or which may lead any person to reduce their level of business with any member of the Group or seek to improve their terms of trade with any member of the Group; and

  • (7) not solicit or entice or endeavour to solicit or entice any of the employees of or consultants to the Group to terminate their employment or appointment with any member of the Group.
