THE ISSUE MANDATE

An ordinary resolution will also be proposed at the AGM that the Directors be granted the Issue Mandate to issue, allot and deal with unissued Shares up to a maximum of 20% of the total number of issued shares of the Company as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution.

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following is as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide the Shareholders with requisite information reasonably necessary to enable them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the AGM in relation to the granting of the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 3,107,473,773 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the resolution for granting the Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased before the AGM, the Company will be allowed to repurchase up to a maximum of 310,747,377 Shares, being 10% of the total number of issued shares as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution for granting the Repurchase Mandate.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders which enables the Company to repurchase its Shares on the Stock Exchange.

Repurchases of Shares 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 such purpose in accordance with the Articles and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

4. IMPACT OF REPURCHASES

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 financial statements contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020) 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 intend 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 which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

6. GENERAL

To the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors nor any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, if the granting of 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, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands as well as the regulations set out in the Articles.

The Company has not been notified by any Core Connected Persons that they have a present intention to sell, or have undertaken not to sell, any Shares held by them to the Company, if the granting of the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

- 7 -

APPENDIX I EXPLANATORY STATEMENT FOR REPURCHASE MANDATE

7. 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 Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (within the meaning under the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase in 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 Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Company, Mr. Shan Huei KUO and Ms. Yi-Mei LIU, the executive Directors, were beneficially interested in 2,146,346,773 Shares representing approximately 69.07% of the total issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercised the proposed Repurchase Mandate in full, the interests of Mr. Shan Huei KUO and Ms. Yi-Mei LIU in the Company would be increased to approximately 76.74% of the issued share capital of the Company.

The Directors consider that such increase in shareholding would not give rise to an obligation on Mr. Shan Huei KUO and Ms. Yi-Mei LIU to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code but would reduce the number of Shares held by the public to less than 25% of the Company's total issued share capital. The Directors have no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as may result in the public shareholding of the Company falling below the minimum public float requirement.

8. REPURCHASE OF SHARES MADE BY THE COMPANY

No Shares had been repurchased by the Company, whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise, in the last six months prior to the Latest Practicable Date.
