OTHER UPDATES

Proposed Capital Reorganisation and the Subscription Agreement

Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 22 February 2021 (the ''Subscription Announcement'').

As disclosed in the Subscription Announcement, the Board proposed to implement the Capital Reorganisation which involves the following:

  1. Proposed Share Consolidation
    The Share Consolidation will be effected pursuant to which every 10 issued and unissued Existing Shares of HK$0.10 each will be consolidated into 1 Consolidated Share of HK$1.00 each and where applicable, the total number of Consolidated Shares in the issued share capital of the Company immediately following the Share Consolidation will be rounded down to a whole number. Fractional Consolidated Shares will be disregarded and not issued to the Shareholders but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefit of the Company.
  2. Proposed Capital Reduction and Share Subdivision
    1. The issued share capital of the Company will be reduced through a cancellation of the paid-up capital of the Company to the extent of HK$0.90 on each of the issued Consolidated Shares such that the nominal value of each issued Consolidated Share will be reduced from HK$1.00 to HK$0.10;
    2. immediately following the Capital Reduction, each of the authorised but unissued Consolidated Share of HK$1.00 each will be sub-divided into 10 New Shares of HK$0.10 each; and
    3. the credits arising in the books of the Company from the Capital Reduction of approximately HK$96,941,520 will be credited to the distributable reserve account of the Company which will be utilised by the Company in any manner as the Board may deem fit and permitted under all applicable laws and the memorandum and articles of association of the Company.

On 22 February 2021, the Company entered into the Subscription Agreement with the Subscriber, pursuant to which the Subscriber has conditionally agreed to subscribe for and the Company has conditionally agreed to allot and issue 218,689,624 New Shares at the Subscription Price of HK$0.183 per Subscription Share to the Subscriber. The net proceeds of the Subscription is expected to be approximately HK$22.1 million.

Under the Companies Act, the Company is restricted in its ability to issue shares at a price lower than their par value. The Capital Reduction will reduce the par value of the Consolidated Shares, which will provide the Company with greater flexibility to accommodate the issue of New Shares under the Subscription Agreement, and in the future when necessary.

The Board also considers that the credit arising from the Capital Reduction could be transferred to the distributable reserve account of the Company and applied to set off against any future accumulated losses of the Company. Accordingly, it will allow greater flexibility for the Company to consider any declaration of dividends to the Shareholders if and when the Company's financial position allows and the Board considers appropriate in the future, although there is no guarantee that dividend will be declared or paid upon the Capital Reorganisation becoming effective or at any time in the future. The Board considers that the Capital Reorganisation is beneficial to and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

The Directors consider that the Subscription represents an opportunity to raise capital for the Company in order to maintain the cash flow position of the Group and to enhance the capital base of the Company. The Board believes that the proceeds from the Subscription will enable the Group to continue and expand its current operations, which will in turn demonstrate its compliance with Rule 13.24 of the Listing Rules.

The Company has despatched the circular to the Shareholders on 29 March 2021, containing, among other things, further details of the Capital Reorganisation and the Subscription, and a notice convening the EGM to be held on 30 April 2021 for the purpose of considering, among other things, and if thought fit, approving the Capital Reorganisation, the Subscription and the transactions contemplated thereunder.
