PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

In view of the ongoing novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic and recent requirements for prevention and control of its spread, the Company will implement the following preventive measures at the AGM to protect attending shareholders, staff and other stakeholders from the risk of infection:

  1. Compulsory body temperature checks will be conducted on every Shareholder, proxy and other attendees at the entrance of the AGM venue. Any person with a body temperature of over 37.4°C may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue.
  2. All Shareholders, proxies and other attendees are required to complete and submit at the entrance of the AGM venue a declaration form confirming their names, contact details and body condition, and state that whether they have travelled to any affected countries or areas outside Hong Kong in the preceding 21 days, or to their best knowledge had close contact with any confirmed cases, or have symptoms of flu, fever or pneumonia. Any such person may be denied entry into the AGM venue or be required to leave the AGM venue.
  3. Attendees are required to wear surgical face masks inside the AGM venue at all times, and to maintain a safe distance between seats.
  4. No refreshments will be served, and there will be no corporate gifts.

To the extent permitted under law, the Company reserves the right to deny entry into the AGM venue or require any person to leave the AGM venue in order to ensure the safety of the attendees at the AGM.

In the interest of all stakeholders' health and safety, the Company reminds all Shareholders that physical attendance in person at the AGM is not necessary for the purpose of exercising voting rights. As an alternative, strongly recommended by using a form of proxy with voting instructions inserted, Shareholders, particularly those who are subjected to quarantine, may appoint the chairman of the AGM as their proxy to vote on the relevant resolutions at the AGM instead of attending the AGM in person.

Subject to the development of COVID-19, the Company may implement further changes to the arrangement of the AGM as appropriate and precautionary measures and may issue further announcement on such measures as appropriate.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with information regarding resolutions to be proposed at the AGM relating to the granting to the Directors of the Share Issue Mandate, the Share Repurchase Mandate, the extension of the Share Issue Mandate and the re-election of retiring Directors; and to seek your approval of the relevant ordinary resolutions relating to these matters at the AGM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

SHARE ISSUE MANDATE

On 29 April 2020, an ordinary resolution was passed by the then sole Shareholder to give a general mandate to the Directors to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with Shares. Such mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM. It is therefore proposed to renew such mandate at the AGM.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 2,000,000,000 Shares. Subject to passing of the resolution approving the Share Issue Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued prior to the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the resolution approving the Share Issue Mandate to issue a maximum of 400,000,000 Shares representing not more than 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

Details of the Share Issue Mandate and the extension of the Share Issue Mandate are set out in ordinary resolutions as referred to in resolutions nos. 5 and 7 respectively of the notice of the AGM.

SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

On 29 April 2020, an ordinary resolution was passed by the then sole Shareholder to give a general mandate to the Directors to exercise all the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares. Such mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM. It is therefore proposed to renew such mandate at the AGM.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 2,000,000,000 Shares. Assuming that there is no change in the issued share capital between the period from the Latest Practicable Date and the date of passing the Repurchase Resolution, the maximum number of Shares which may be repurchased pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate as at the date of passing the Repurchase Resolution will be 200,000,000 Shares representing not more than 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

An explanatory statement as required under the Listing Rules, giving certain information regarding the Share Repurchase Mandate, is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

The Board currently comprises six Directors, namely Mr. Leung Chun Wah, Mr. Tang Che Yin, Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy, Mr. Leung Man Chiu, Lawrence, Mr. Poon Chak Sang, Plato and Mr. Ho Chi Sing, Spencer.

In accordance with the Articles of Association, Mr. Leung Chun Wah, Mr. Tang Che Yin, Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy, Mr. Leung Man Chiu, Lawrence, Mr. Poon Chak Sang, Plato and Mr. Ho Chi Sing, Spencer will retire at the AGM and, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election.

The nomination committee of the Company had assessed and reviewed the written confirmation of independence of each of the independent non-executive Directors based on the independence criteria as set out in rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules and confirmed that all of them remain independent.

4

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Having regard to the experience, skills and expertise as well as the overall board diversity of the Company, the nomination committee of the Company recommended the re-election of all the retiring Directors to the Board for it to propose to the Shareholders for re-election at the AGM. Accordingly, the Board has proposed that each of the retiring Directors, namely Mr. Leung Chun Wah, Mr. Tang Che Yin, Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy, Mr. Leung Man Chiu, Lawrence, Mr. Poon Chak Sang, Plato and Mr. Ho Chi Sing, Spencer stand for re-election as Directors by way of separate resolution at the AGM.

Biographical details of the above retiring Directors proposed to be re-elected at the AGM are set out in Appendix II to this circular.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

At the AGM, ordinary resolutions will be proposed to approve the Share Issue Mandate, the Share Repurchase Mandate, the extension of the Share Issue Mandate and the re-election of retiring Directors. The notice of the AGM is set out on pages 15 to 19 of this circular.

VOTING BY WAY OF POLL

Pursuant to Rule 13.39(4) of the Listing Rules, any vote of shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except where the chairman, in good faith, decides to allow a resolution which relates purely to a procedural or administrative matter to be voted on by a show of hands. The chairman of the meeting will therefore demand a poll for every resolution put to the vote of the AGM pursuant to Article 72 of the Articles of Association and the Company will announce the results of the poll in the manner prescribed under Rule 13.39(5) of the Listing Rules.

ACTION TO BE TAKEN

A proxy form for use at the AGM is enclosed herein. Whether or not you intend to attend the AGM, you are requested to complete the proxy form in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return the same to the Hong Kong branch share registrar and transfer office of the Company, Boardroom Share Registrars (HK) Limited, at 2103B, 21/F, 148 Electric Road, North Point, Hong Kong as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the AGM or any adjournment thereof. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting at the AGM, or any adjourned meeting, should you so wish.

RECOMMENDATION

The Directors believe that the granting of the Share Issue Mandate, the Share Repurchase Mandate, the extension of the Share Issue Mandate and the re-election of the retiring Directors are in the best interests of the Company as well as the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors recommend that all the Shareholders should vote in favour of all the relevant resolutions relating to aforesaid matters.

By order of the Board

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 10.06(1)(b) of the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to you for your consideration of the proposal to permit the repurchase of Shares up to a maximum of 10% of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing the Repurchase Resolution.

1. EXERCISE OF THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Exercise in full of the Share Repurchase Mandate, on the basis of 2,000,000,000 Shares in issue at the Latest Practicable Date, would result in up to 200,000,000 Shares (which will be fully paid and represent 10% of the total issued Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date) being repurchased by the Company during the course of the period prior to the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company; or (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Articles of Association or applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to be held; or (iii) the passing of any ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in general meeting of the Company revoking, varying or renewing the Share Repurchase Mandate.

2. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

Repurchases of Shares will only be made when the Directors believe that such a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at that time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value of the Company and/or its earnings per Share.

3. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

In repurchasing Shares, the Company may only apply funds legally available for such purpose in accordance with the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles of Association and the Companies Laws of the Cayman Islands and any the applicable laws and regulations. Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate, repurchases will be made out of funds of the Company legally permitted to be utilised in this connection, including funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose of the repurchase. In the case of any premium payable on the repurchase, out of funds of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the share premium account of the Company. The Company may not repurchase securities on the Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Stock Exchange prevailing from time to time.

4. GENERAL

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 Share Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or on the gearing position of the Company which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

6

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the memorandum of association of the Company, the Articles of the Association and all applicable laws of the Cayman Islands in force from time to time.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules), has any present intention, if the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell any Shares to the Company or its subsidiaries.

No core connected person (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, if the Share Repurchase Mandate is exercised.

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares, 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 the Takeovers Code. As a result, 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 interest of the Shareholder(s), could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become(s) obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code as a result of a repurchase of Shares made under the Share Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy through Red Dynasty, a company which is wholly-owned by Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy, was beneficially interested in 1,500,000,000 Shares, representing approximately 75% of the total number of issued Shares.

In the event that the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares under the Share Repurchase Mandate, the shareholding of Mr. Yung Kwok Kee, Billy would be increased to approximately 83.33% of the total number of issued Shares.

The Directors are not aware of any consequence under the Takeovers Code as a result of a repurchase of Shares made under the Share Repurchase Mandate and have no present intention to exercise the power to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as to result in takeover obligations.

The Directors will not exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate if the repurchase would result in the number of Shares which are in the hands of the public falling below 25% of the total number of Shares in issue (or such other percentage as may be prescribed as the minimum public shareholding under the Listing Rules).

Any repurchase of Shares which results in the number of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% could only be implemented with the approval of the Stock Exchange to waive the Listing Rules requirements regarding the public shareholding. However, the Directors have no current intention to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would give rise to this obligation. In any event, the Company will not repurchase Shares which would result in the amount of Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25%.

7
