LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to give you notice of the 2020 AGM and provide you with the information regarding the above resolutions to be proposed at the 2020 AGM to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against those resolutions.

ISSUE MANDATE

Given that the general mandate granted to the Directors to issue Shares pursuant to the approval by Shareholders at the 2019 AGM will lapse at the conclusion of the 2020 AGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2020 AGM to grant the Issue Mandate to the Directors. Based on 762,000,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and assuming that no further Shares will be issued and no Shares will be repurchased and cancelled after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the 2020 AGM, the Directors will be authorized to allot, issue and deal with up to a total of 152,400,000 Shares, being 20% of the total number of the issued Shares as at the date of the resolution in relation thereto if the Issue Mandate is granted at the 2020 AGM. The Issue Mandate, if granted at the 2020 AGM, will end at the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next AGM; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next AGM is required to be held by the Articles of Association or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands; and (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting of the Company.

REPURCHASE MANDATE

Given that the general mandate granted to the Directors to repurchase Shares pursuant to the approval by Shareholders at the 2019 AGM will lapse at the conclusion of the 2020 AGM, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2020 AGM to grant the Repurchase Mandate to the Directors. Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution approving the grant of the Repurchase Mandate and based on 762,000,000 Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date, and assuming that no further Shares will be issued and no Shares will be repurchased and cancelled after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the 2020 AGM, the Company would be allowed to repurchase a maximum of 76,200,000 Shares, being 10% of the total number of the issued Shares as at the date of the resolution in relation thereto. The Repurchase Mandate, if granted at the 2020 AGM, will end at the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next AGM; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next AGM is required to be held by the Articles of Association or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands; and (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting of the Company.

An explanatory statement in connection with the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular. The explanatory statement contains all the requisite information required under the Listing Rules to be given to the Shareholders to enable them to make informed decisions on whether to vote for or against the resolution approving the Repurchase Mandate.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

EXTENSION OF ISSUE MANDATE TO ISSUE SHARES

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolutions to grant the Issue Mandate and the Repurchase Mandate, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the 2020 AGM to extend the Issue Mandate by including the number of Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were four executive Directors, namely Mr. Choy Chi Fai, Ms. Ho Ka Man, Mr. Ho Chun Kit, Saxony and Mr. Au Chun Kit; and three INEDs, namely Dr. Luk Ting Kwong, Mr. Ko Ming Kin and Dr. Wan Cho Yee.

Article 108(a) of the Articles of Association provides that at each AGM, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not three or a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one-third, shall retire from office by rotation provided that every Director shall be subject to retirement by rotation at least once every three years. According to Article 108(b) of the Articles of Association, the Directors to retire by rotation shall be those who have been the longest in office since their last reelection or appointment and so that as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot. Accordingly, Mr. Choy Chi Fai, Mr. Ko Ming Kin and Dr. Wan Cho Yee shall retire by rotation at the 2020 AGM and being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the 2020 AGM.

The biographical details of each of the retiring Directors to be re-elected at the 2020 AGM are set out in Appendix I to this circular in accordance with the relevant requirements under the Listing Rules.

The Nomination Committee has assessed and reviewed each of the INEDs' annual written confirmation of independence based on the independence criteria as set out in Rule

3.13 of the Listing Rules and confirmed that all the INEDs, including Mr. Ko Ming Kin and Dr. Wan Cho Yee, remain independent. In addition, the Nomination Committee had evaluated the performance of each of the retiring Directors for the Year based on the nomination policy of the Company, which was disclosed in the ''Corporate Governance Report'' of the annual report of the Company for the Year and found their performance satisfactory. The Nomination Committee is of the view that based on the perspectives, skills and experience of Mr. Ko and Dr. Wan, they can bring further contributions to the Board and increase its diversity. Therefore, with the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, the Board has proposed that all of the retiring Directors, namely Mr. Choy Chi Fai, Mr. Ko Ming Kin and Dr. Wan Cho Yee stand for re-election as Directors at the 2020 AGM.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, no core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or has undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

3. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 762,000,000 Shares. Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution for the approval of the Repurchase Mandate, and assuming that no further Shares are issued and no Shares are repurchased and cancelled after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of passing such resolution at the 2020 AGM, the Directors would be authorized to repurchase up to a maximum of 76,200,000 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing the relevant resolution. The Repurchase Mandate will end on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next AGM; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next AGM is required to be held by the Articles of Association or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands; and (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders in a general meeting of the Company.

4. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

5. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, repurchases would be funded entirely from the Company's funds legally available in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and the memorandum and articles of association of the Company for such purpose.

6. IMPACT ON WORKING CAPITAL OR GEARING POSITION

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company when compared with that as at 31 March 2020, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. The Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, which in the opinion of the Directors is from time to time appropriate for the Company.

7. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest market prices at which the Shares had been traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous twelve months up to and including the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

8. DIRECTORS AND THEIR CLOSE ASSOCIATES

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their respective close associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company any of the Shares if the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the 2020 AGM.

9. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

10. EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Company exercising its powers to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such an increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code), 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.

To the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, as at the Latest Practicable Date, Beatitudes was beneficially interested in 562,500,000 Shares, representing approximately 73.82% of the total number of issued Shares. Each of Mr. Choy Chi Fai, an executive Director, the managing Director and the Chairman, and Ms. Ho Ka Man, an executive Director and the wife of Mr. Choy, owns 50% of the issued share capital of Beatitudes, respectively. Accordingly, each of Mr. Choy and Ms. Ho was deemed or taken to be interested in all the Shares which were beneficially owned by Beatitudes for the purpose of the SFO. In the event that the Directors will exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, the interests in the Company of each of Mr. Choy, Ms. Ho and Beatitudes would be increased to approximately 82.02% of the total number of the issued Shares and such increase will not give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequence which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchase of Shares under the Repurchase Mandate.

Assuming that there is no issue of Shares to any independent third party(ies) between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of a repurchase, an exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in whole or in part will result in the aggregate amount of the issued Shares in the public hands further falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25% as required by the Stock Exchange. The Directors confirm that the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised to the extent as may result in the amount of the Shares held by the public being further reduced. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the percentage of Shares held by public was approximately 14.47%, which remained below the minimum percentage of public shareholders of 25% as prescribed by Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules.

11. SHARES REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY
