At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 30 August 2019, ordinary resolutions were passed by the Shareholders to grant general mandates to the Directors to issue and repurchase Shares respectively.

  2. the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors to repurchase Shares on the Stock Exchange of not exceeding 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of passing of the proposed ordinary resolution contained in item 6 of the notice of 2020 AGM (i.e. a total of 57,624,378 Shares on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the 2020 AGM); and
  3. extension of the Issue Mandate by adding the aggregate number of Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR

REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following serves as an explanatory statement in compliance with the Listing Rules to give requisite information reasonably necessary to enable Shareholders to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company was HK$57,624,378.5 comprising 576,243,785 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolution to approve the granting of the Repurchase Mandate (as set out in item 6 of the notice of the 2020 AGM) and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the 2020 AGM, exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate would result in the repurchase by the Company up to a maximum of 57,624,378 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the 2020 AGM during the period in which the Repurchase Mandate remains in force.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets 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. IMPACT OF REPURCHASES

There might be a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company as compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 March 2020 (being the date to which the latest audited financial statements of the Company were made up) in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds which are legally available for such purpose in accordance with its Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws, the laws of Bermuda and/or any other applicable laws, as the case may be.

GENERAL

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders.

No core connected person, as defined in the Listing Rules, has notified the Company that he/she has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, nor has he/she undertaken not to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by Shareholders.

7. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of Bermuda and Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws of the Company.

- 9 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR

REPURCHASE MANDATE

8. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If, as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder 's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning of the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in the Shareholder 's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Company, Mr. Cheung Ling Mun was beneficially interested in 120,068,000 Shares representing approximately 20.84% of the total issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercise the proposed Repurchase Mandate in full, the interest of Mr. Cheung Ling Mun in the Company would be increased to approximately 23.15% of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which may give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. The Directors do not propose or intend to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, result in the aggregate number of Shares held by the public falling below the prescribed minimum percentage required by the Stock Exchange.

9. SHARES REPURCHASES MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company had not repurchased any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the previous six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

- 10 -
