PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION
AND
NOTICE OF SGM
INTRODUCTION
Reference is made to the announcement of the Company dated 28 July 2020 in relation to the proposed Share Consolidation. The purpose of this circular is to provide you with details of the proposed Share Consolidation and to give you the notice of SGM to be convened.
PROPOSED SHARE CONSOLIDATION
The Board proposes that every ten (10) Existing Shares in the share capital of the Company be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share.
- For identification purposes only
- 5 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Effects of the Share Consolidation
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there are 6,394,046,829 Existing Shares in issue which are fully paid or credited as fully paid. Assuming no further Shares will be issued from the Latest Practicable Date up to the date of the SGM, upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, there will be 639,404,682 whole Consolidated Shares in issue which are fully paid or credited as fully paid.
Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the Consolidated Shares shall rank pari passu in all respects with each other. Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, every ten (10) Existing Shares of HK$0.01 each will be consolidated into one (1) Consolidated Share of HK$0.10 each.
In the forthcoming annual general meeting of the Company, the Company proposes to refresh the scheme mandate limit of its share option scheme. The Company confirms that the refreshment of limit of share option scheme and the Share Consolidation are two independent events and not conditional on each other.
Other than the expenses to be incurred in relation to the Share Consolidation, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not alter the underlying assets, business operations, management or financial position of the Company or the proportionate interests or rights of the Shareholders.
Conditions of the Share Consolidation
The implementation of the Share Consolidation is conditional upon:
- the passing of an ordinary resolution by the Shareholders at the SGM to approve the Share Consolidation; and
- the Stock Exchange granting the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.
The Share Consolidation will become effective on 28 September 2020 subject to the fulfilment of the above conditions. As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the conditions of the Share Consolidation has been fulfilled.
Listing Application
An application will be made by the Company to the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares in issue and to be issued upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective.
Subject to the granting of the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange, as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of the HKSCC, the Consolidated Shares will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the commencement date of
- 6 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
dealings in the Consolidated Shares on the Stock Exchange or such other date as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second settlement day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time. All necessary arrangements will be made for the Consolidated Shares to be admitted into CCASS established and operated by HKSCC.
None of the Existing Shares of the Company are listed or dealt in on any other stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and at the time the Share Consolidation becomes effective, the Consolidated Shares in issue will not be listed or dealt in on any stock exchange other than the Stock Exchange, and no such listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought. The Company has no debt securities which are listed or dealt in or on which listing or permission to deal is being or is proposed to be sought.
Adjustments in relation to other securities of the Company
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there are outstanding Options and Bonus Warrants issued by the Company. The proposed Share Consolidation may cause adjustments to the exercise price of the Options and the subscription price of the Bonus Warrants and the number of Consolidated Shares to be issued under the outstanding Options pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Options and under the terms and conditions of the share option scheme of the Company granting such Options and the number of Shares to be issued upon exercise of the subscription rights attaching to the Bonus Warrants. Further announcement will be made in respect of the said adjustments as and when appropriate.
Save as disclosed above, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company has no other outstanding options, warrants or other securities in issue which are convertible into or giving rights to subscribe for, convert or exchange into, any Existing Shares or Consolidated Shares, as the case may be.
NO CHANGE IN BOARD LOT SIZE
As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Existing Shares are traded on the Stock Exchange in board lot size of 10,000 Existing Shares. Upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective, the board lot size for trading in the Consolidated Shares will remain at 10,000 Consolidated Shares.
Based on the closing price of HK$0.029 per Existing Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange as at the Latest Practicable Date, the value of each board lot of 10,000 Consolidated Shares, assuming Share Consolidation had already been effective, would be HK$2,900.
REASONS FOR THE SHARE CONSOLIDATION
The closing prices of the Existing Shares were below HK$0.1 for the past two years. It is expected that the proposed Share Consolidation will reduce the total number of Shares currently in issue. As such, it is expected that the Share Consolidation will bring about a corresponding upward adjustment in the trading price of the Shares. Moreover, as the market
- 7 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
value of each board lot upon the Share Consolidation becoming effective will be higher than the market value of each existing board lot, the transaction cost as a proportion of the market value of each board lot will be lower.
Set out below are the adjusted historical trading prices of the Existing Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange.

Save for the necessary professional expenses for the implementation of the Share Consolidation and any fractional Consolidated Shares to which Shareholders may otherwise be entitled, the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not have any material impacts on the underlying assets, business operation, management or financial position of the Company, and the interests and rights of the Shareholders.
- 8 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Taking into account the potential benefits and insubstantial costs to be incurred, the Board is of the view that the Share Consolidation is in the best interest of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for the placing of convertible bonds as disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 16 July 2020, the Company does not have intention to carry out any other fundraising activities.
The Company hereby confirms that it has no intention to carry out any corporate actions or fund raising that may result in share consolidation, share subdivision and change in board lot size in the next 12 months, which would have a contradictory effect to the Share Consolidation.
The Company does not have current agreement, arrangement, understanding, intention and/or negotiations on any potential fund raising activities in the next 12 months. Such fund raising activities, if any, will not have a contradictory effect to the Share Consolidation. As such, the Directors have taken into account the effect of potential fund raising activities in the coming 12 months when determining the basis of the proposed Share Consolidation.
OTHER ARRANGEMENTS
Fractional entitlement to Consolidated Shares
Fractional Consolidated Shares will be disregarded and will not be issued to the Shareholders but all such fractional Consolidated Shares will be aggregated and, if possible, sold for the benefit of the Company. Fractional Consolidated Shares will only arise in respect of the entire shareholding of a holder of the Existing Shares of the Company regardless of the number of share certificates held by such holder.
Arrangement on odd lot trading
In order to facilitate the trading of odd lots (if any) of the Consolidated Shares, the Company will appoint a securities firm as an agent to provide matching services, on a best effort basis, to those Shareholders who wish to acquire odd lots of the Consolidated Shares to make up a full board lot, or to dispose of their holding of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares. The Company has agreed to procure Ever-Long Securities Company Limited to arrange for matching services regarding the sale and purchase of odd lots of Consolidated Shares from Wednesday, 14 October 2020 to Wednesday, 4 November 2020 (both days inclusive). Shareholders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares may contact Mr. Wong (telephone number:
- 2542 0080) of Ever-Long Securities Company Limited during normal business hours in the aforesaid period.
Holders of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares should note that the matching of the sale and purchase of odd lots of the Consolidated Shares is not guaranteed. Shareholders who are in any doubt about the odd lots matching arrangement are recommended to consult their own professional advisers.
- 9 -
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
Exchange of certificates for Consolidated Shares
Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, which is currently expected to be Monday, 28 September 2020, Shareholders may on or after 28 September 2020 and until 6 November 2020 (both days inclusive), submit their existing share certificates in green colour for the Existing Shares to the Company's branch share registrar in Hong Kong, Tricor Tengis Limited at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong for exchange for share certificates in pink colour for the Consolidated Shares at the expense of the Company.
Shareholders should note that after the prescribed time for free exchange of share certificates, a fee of HK$2.50 (or such higher amount as may from time to time be allowed by the Stock Exchange) will be payable by the Shareholders to the share registrar for exchange of share certificates.
Subject to the Share Consolidation becoming effective, after 4:10 p.m. on Wednesday, 4 November 2020, trading will only be in Consolidated Shares which share certificates will be issued in pink colour. Existing share certificates in green colour for the Existing Shares will cease to be valid for trading and settlement purpose, but will remain valid and effective as documents of title.
SGM
A notice of SGM convening the SGM at which resolution will be proposed to the Shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, to approve the proposed Share Consolidation is set out on pages 12 to 15 of this circular.
To the best knowledge of the Directors, no Shareholders have a material interest in the Share Consolidation and accordingly, no Shareholders will have to abstain from voting at the SGM.
