The businesses of Canton Risen will also be further strengthened with a broader equity holder base pooling resources and capabilities together while sharing in the associated risks. The Fifth Capital Injection will provide further source of capital for Canton Risen to develop its existing businesses while lightening the Group's financial load to provide capital injections for Canton Risen from time to time.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Directors are of the view that the terms of the Fifth Capital Injection Agreement are on normal commercial terms and fair and reasonable and the Fifth Capital Injection and the transactions contemplated thereunder are in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

Following the completion of the Fifth Capital Injection, the Group's equity interest in Canton Risen will be reduced, which will constitute a deemed disposal of the Company's interest in a subsidiary pursuant to Rule 14.29 of the Listing Rules. As the applicable percentage ratios calculated in accordance with the Listing Rules in respect of the Fifth Capital Injection are more than 5% but less than 25%, the Fifth Capital Injection Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder constitute a discloseable transaction of the Company itself pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules.

Subsequent to the major transaction disclosed as per the announcement and circular of the Company of 28 December 2018 and 15 February 2019 respectively, the Transactions involve deemed disposal of equity interest by the Group in Canton Risen, all of which are conducted within 12 months, the Fifth Capital Injection is therefore subject to aggregation with the Third Capital Injection and the Fourth Capital Injection pursuant to Rule 14.22 of the Listing Rules. As the highest applicable percentage ratio calculated in accordance with the Listing Rules in respect of the Transactions on an aggregate basis is more than 25% but less than 75%, the Transactions constitute a major transaction of the Company and the Fifth Capital Injection is therefore subject to the announcement, circular and shareholders' approval requirements pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. The Fifth Capital Injection, even if aggregated will all the previous injections, would only constitute a major transaction.

As no Shareholder is materially interested in the Fifth Capital Injection and no Shareholder is required to abstain from voting at a general meeting of the Company approving the transactions contemplated under the Fifth Capital Injection, the Company has, pursuant to Rule 14.44 of the Listing Rules, obtained a written approval of the transactions contemplated under the Fifth Capital Injection from Prize Rich Inc., a Shareholder holding 1,222,713,527 issued ordinary shares of the Company (representing 71.41% of its entire issued share capital). As such, the Company is exempted from convening a general meeting to approve the transactions contemplated under the Fifth Capital Injection.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The Directors consider that the Fifth Capital Injection Agreement and the incidental documentation (including the amended constitutional documents and the supplemental joint venture agreement signed by all shareholders of Canton Risen reflecting the relevant terms of the Fifth Capital Injection Agreement) and the transactions contemplated thereunder are on normal commercial terms which are made on an arm's length basis and are fair and reasonable, and in the best interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole.
