Appendix III - Explanatory Statement ...................................

the Company would encourage Shareholders to: (i) attend the AGM and vote by means of electronic facilities; or (ii) exercise their right to vote at the AGM by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy instead of physically attending the AGM.

ATTENDING THE AGM BY MEANS OF ELECTRONIC FACILITIES

The AGM will be a hybrid meeting. In addition to the traditional physical attendance at the AGM, Shareholders have the option of attending, participating and voting at the AGM through online access by visiting websitehttps://web.lumiagm.com(the "Online Platform"). Shareholders participating at the AGM using the Online Platform will also be counted towards the quorum and they will be able to cast their vote and submit questions through the Online Platform.

The Online Platform will be open for registered Shareholders and non-registered Shareholders (see below for login details and arrangements) to log in approximately 30 minutes prior to the commencement of the AGM and can be accessed from any location with internet connection by a smart phone, tablet device or computer. Shareholders should allow ample time to check into the Online Platform to complete the related procedures.

Dear Shareholder(s)

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

PROPOSALS FOR RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

AND

GENERAL MANDATES TO

ISSUE NEW SHARES AND REPURCHASE SHARES

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to give Shareholders notice of the forthcoming AGM to be held on Monday, 10 May 2021 at 12:30 pm (or, in the event that a black rainstorm warning signal or tropical cyclone warning signal no. 8 or above is in force in Hong Kong at 9:00 am on that day, at the same time and place on Tuesday, 11 May 2021). The circular also provides information regarding salient resolutions to be proposed at the AGM: (i) the re-election of Directors; and (ii) the grant to the Directors the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate.

• 2. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

  The notice of the AGM is set out in Appendix I to this circular. The form of proxy for use at the AGM is enclosed and can also be downloaded from the websites of the Company atwww.hthkh.comand Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited at www.hkexnews.hk. Whether Shareholders are able to attend the AGM physically or online, they are encouraged to appoint the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy by completing, signing and returning the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon to the Hong Kong Share Registrar of the Company, Computershare Hong Kong Investor Services Limited, at 17M Floor, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Wanchai, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event no less than 48 hours before the time fixed for holding the AGM or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude Shareholders from attending and voting in person at the AGM or any adjournment or postponement if Shareholders so wish.

  All the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM set out in the Notice of the AGM will be voted by way of a poll pursuant to Article 66(a) of the Articles of Association. The results of the poll will be posted on the websites of the Company atwww.hthkh.comand Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited atwww.hkexnews.hk.

  Shareholders can also attend the AGM and vote by means of electronic facilities. See "Guidance for Annual General Meeting" on pages 1 to 2 of this circular.

• 3. RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

  In accordance with Article 84 of the Articles of Association, Mr Lui Dennis Pok Man, Mr Koo Sing Fai and Dr Wong Yick Ming, Rosanna will retire by rotation at the AGM. Being eligible, the above retiring Directors will offer themselves for re-election at the AGM.

  The Nomination Committee considered and assessed the suitability of the above retiring Directors for re-election in accordance with the Director Nomination Policy. The Committee also took into account the structure and size of the Board as well as the various diversity aspects set out in the Board Diversity Policy. Dr Wong, the chairman of the Nomination Committee, has abstained from voting on her own nomination when it was considered.

  Both Mr Lui and Mr Koo possess deep understanding of the businesses of the Group and extensive management and operation experience in the telecommunications industry. Dr Wong, with over four decades of experience in non-profit and public services, offers distinctive insight and guidance to the Board, particularly in the area of sustainability strategy and the community. All the above retiring Directors have shown devotion and commitment to the Board by bringing in fresh perspectives and providing constructive comments at Board and Board Committee meetings as well as their 100% attendance at such meetings.

  Dr Wong has served as an Independent Non-executive Director of the Company for more than nine years. During her tenure, Dr Wong was not involved in the daily management of the Company nor in any relationship or circumstances which would materially interfere with her exercise of independent judgement. She has confirmed that she satisfied the independence factors set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules. The Nomination Committee, having assessed the independence of Dr Wong, is of the view that she would continue to bring in fresh perspectives, objective insights and independent judgment to the Board as well as the Board committees she currently serves on. There is no evidence that her tenure of over nine years has compromised or would compromise her continued independence. In particular, Dr Wong has played a leading role in the Audit Committee, Nomination

Committee and Sustainability Committee, and would continue to bring independent and external dimension as well as constructive and informed comments on issues of the Group's sustainability strategy and policy, performance, accountability, resources and key appointments.

The Board, having considered the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, is of the view that the diverse and invaluable knowledge, skill sets and experience of each of Mr Lui, Mr Koo and Dr Wong in the businesses of the Group and their general business acumen continue to generate significant contribution to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. In addition, the Board considers that Dr Wong remains independent and committed in spite of the length of her service, and her tenure of over nine years does not and would not affect her independent judgment.

Information on the retiring Directors is set out in Appendix II to this circular. Each of their re-election will be subject to a separate resolution to be proposed at the AGM.

Any Shareholder who wishes to nominate a person to stand for election as a director at the AGM should lodge with the Company Secretary of the Company at 48th Floor, Cheung Kong Center, 2 Queen's Road Central, Hong Kong within the period from Friday, 2 April 2021 to Thursday, 8 April 2021, both days inclusive, (i) his written nomination of the candidate; (ii) written confirmation from such nominated candidate of his willingness to be elected as Director; and (iii) the biographical details of such nominated candidate as required under Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules for publication by the Company.

4. GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE NEW SHARES AND REPURCHASE SHARES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 12 May 2020, ordinary resolutions were passed to grant general mandates to the Directors (i) to allot, issue and deal with new Shares not exceeding 10% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution; and (ii) to repurchase Shares not exceeding 10% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue as at the date of passing the relevant resolution. These general mandates are due to expire at the conclusion of the AGM.

At the AGM, approval will be sought from Shareholders for the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate as follows:

• (a) to authorise the Board to issue, allot and deal with new Shares not exceeding 10% (instead of 20% as permitted under the Listing Rules) of the aggregate number of Shares in issue at the date of passing the relevant resolution (such aggregate number to be subject to adjustment in the case of any conversion of any or all of the Shares into a larger or smaller number of Shares after the passing of such resolution). Any additional Shares to be allotted or issued pursuant to such a general mandate shall not be at a discount of more than 10% (instead of 20% as permitted under the Listing Rules) to the "benchmarked price" (as described in Rule 13.36(5) of the Listing Rules). The relevant resolution is set out in agenda item No. 5 of the notice of the AGM; and

• (b) to authorise the Board to repurchase on the Stock Exchange (or any other stock exchange on which the securities of the Company are or may be listed and recognised for this purpose) Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue at the date of passing the relevant resolution (such aggregate number to be subject to adjustment in the case of any conversion of any or all of the Shares into a larger or smaller number of Shares after the passing of such resolution). The relevant resolution is set out in agenda item No. 6 of the notice of the AGM.

With respect to the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, the Directors wish to state that they have no present intention of exercising the Issue Mandate to issue any Shares for fund-raising purposes or the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase any Shares.

An explanatory statement as required by the relevant provisions of the Listing Rules concerning the regulation of repurchases by companies of their own securities on the Stock Exchange is set out in Appendix III to this circular.

5. RECOMMENDATION

The Board considers that the proposals mentioned above, including the re-election of the Directors, and the grant of the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate are all in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommends the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.

Yours faithfully

FOK Kin Ning, Canning Chairman

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to the Shareholders for their consideration of the Repurchase Mandate.

• 1. Issued Shares

  As at the Latest Practicable Date, the total number of Shares in issue were 4,819,096,208.

  Subject to the passing of the relevant Ordinary Resolution No. 6 at the AGM and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased prior to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase a maximum of 481,909,620 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue, during the course of the period ending on the earliest of the date of the next annual general meeting, the date by which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required to be held by law and the date upon which such authority is revoked or varied.

• 2. Reasons for Repurchases

  The Directors believe that 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 and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors consider that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

• 3. Funding of Repurchases

  In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association, the Listing Rules and all applicable laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the Company may repurchase Shares out of funds legally permitted to be utilised for this purpose, including profits of the Company or the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of the repurchase, under the Articles of Association and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

  To the extent that repurchase is funded entirely from the available cashflow or working capital facilities of the Company, there might be an adverse impact on the working capital and/or gearing position of the Company as compared with the position disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020 in the event that the Repurchase Mandate was to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed period within which the Repurchase Mandate may be exercised. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital and/or gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares were traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous 12 months and the period from 1 March 2021 to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Per Share Highest Lowest

(HK$) (HK$)

2020

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that they will exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles of Association.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates, have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company under the Repurchase Mandate if the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

No core connected person of the Company have notified the Company that they have a present intention to sell Shares to the Company or have undertaken not to do so, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

• 6. Implications under the Takeovers Code

  If, on the exercise of the power to repurchase 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 for the purposes of Rule 32 of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

  As at the Latest Practicable Date, CKHH through certain of its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries held 3,184,982,840 Shares, representing approximately 66.09% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue. In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to Ordinary Resolution No. 6 at the AGM, then (if the present shareholdings otherwise remain the same) the aggregate interests of CKHH would increase from approximately 66.09% to approximately 73.43% of the aggregate number of Shares in issue. In the opinion of the Directors, such increase would not give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 or 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, the Directors are currently not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code as a result of any repurchase made under the Repurchase Mandate.

• 7. Share Repurchases made by the Company

  The Company did not repurchase any Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date.
