    The Board is pleased to announce that after trading hours of the Stock Exchange on 8 August 2017, the Purchaser, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Vendor entered into the Provisional Agreement pursuant to which Purchaser agreed to purchase and the Vendor agreed to sell the Property.

    THE PROVISIONAL AGREEMENT

    The principal terms of the Provisional Agreement are summarised below:- Date: 8 August 2017

    Parties: (1) Purchaser

    1. Vendor

    2. Property Agent

    To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, the Vendor, the Property Agent and their respective ultimate beneficial owner(s) are Independent Third Parties.

    Sale and Purchase

    The assets to be acquired by the Purchaser from the Vendor are the office located at Unit on 17/F, Excel Centre, No. 483A Castle Peak Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

    The Property is sold to the Purchaser on an "as is" basis.

    A valuation report of the Property performed by an independent professional valuer appointed by the Company will be contained in the circular to be despatched to the Shareholders.

    Pursuant to the Provisional Agreement, the Vendor shall sell and the Purchaser shall purchase the Property upon the terms contained therein. Pursuant to the terms of the Provisional Agreement, the parties will enter into the Formal Sale and Purchase Agreement for the Acquisition of the Property on or before 22 August 2017.

    Consideration and payment terms

    The Consideration is HK$65,571,000, payable in cash, which shall be paid by the Purchaser in the following manner:

    1. An initial deposit of HK$3,000,000, representing approximately 4.6% of the Consideration, upon signing of the Provisional Agreement;

    2. A further deposit of HK$3,557,100, representing approximately 5.4% of the Consideration, within 14 days upon signing of the Provisional Agreement; and

    3. HK$59,013,900, representing the balance of the Consideration, upon Completion.

    The Consideration was determined after arm's length negotiations between the parties by reference to the prevailing market conditions, as well as the location of the Property and market price of comparable properties in the same area. It is expected that the Consideration will be financed by a combination of (i) net proceeds from the IPO as mentioned in the announcement of the Company dated 19 May 2017, (ii) internal resources of the Group and (iii) bank mortgage financing to the extent where available.

    The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) are of the view that the Consideration is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

    Completion

    Subject to satisfaction of the conditions to the Provisional Agreement, completion of the Acquisition shall take place on or before 31 October 2017.

    REASONS FOR THE ACQUISITION

    The existing headquarter of the Group in Hong Kong is rented under an operating lease which will expire in December 2018. The Acquisition will provide a self-owned office to the Group that (i) provides more spacious area to cater for the Group's future development; (ii) provides capital appreciation potential; (iii) reduces the Group's exposure to future rental expenditure increment; and (iv) ensures the continuity of its operation.

    Taking into account the above factors, the Directors consider that the terms of the Acquisition are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable, and the Acquisition is in the interests of the Shareholders and the Company as a whole.

    None of the Directors has any material interest in the Provisional Agreement and the Acquisition and therefore, none of them has abstained from voting on the Board resolution(s) which approved the Provisional Agreement and the Acquisition.

    INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

    The Group is principally engaged in rendering of sea freight transportation and freight forwarding services in Hong Kong and in the PRC.

    INFORMATION OF THE VENDOR

    To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, the Vendor is a property holding company incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability.

    To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder has a material interest in the Acquisition. As such, no Shareholder would be required to abstain from voting if a general meeting were convened to approve the Provisional Agreement and the Acquisition. Pursuant to Rule
