APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by the Listing Rules, to provide information to the Shareholders regarding the Repurchase Mandate as referred to in the section headed "Repurchase Mandate" on page 4 of this circular.

SHARE CAPITAL

The shares proposed to be repurchased by a company must be fully paid-up. A maximum of 10% of the existing issued share capital as at the date of passing the relevant resolution may be repurchased on the Stock Exchange.

It is proposed that up to 10% of the shares of the Company in issue at the date of passing the resolution to approve the Repurchase Mandate may be repurchased. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of shares in issue was 2,344,818,660. On the basis of such figure (assuming no further shares are issued or repurchased after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of passing such resolution), the Directors would be authorised to repurchase shares up to a maximum limit of 234,481,866 Shares.

REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that giving the Company the ability to repurchase shares is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders. Repurchases of shares may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value and/or earnings per share. The Directors are seeking the grant of the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase shares to give the Company the flexibility to do so if and when appropriate. The number(s) of Shares to be repurchased, the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased, and whether Shares are to be repurchased on any occasion will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regard to the factors and circumstances then pertaining.

FUNDING OF REPURCHASE

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 Bye-laws, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

The laws of Bermuda provide that such repurchases may only be effected out of the capital paid up on the repurchased shares or out of the 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 purposes.

- 13 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

Any premium payable on a repurchase over the par value of the Shares to be repurchased is to be provided for out of funds of the Company otherwise available for dividend or distribution or out of the Company's share premium account before the Shares are repurchased.

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 accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020 contained in the Company's 2020 annual report) if the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. 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 requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors, are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

PRICES OF THE SHARES

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

UNDERTAKING

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their close associates, presently intend to sell any Shares to the Company under the Repurchase Mandate in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders and exercised.

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 proposed resolution in accordance with the Listing Rules, the applicable laws of Bermuda and the Bye-laws.

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

TAKEOVERS CODE

If during 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 will increase, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of the Shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and may become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code even if the Repurchase Mandate is utilized in full. As at the Latest Practicable Date, if the Repurchase Mandate were to be utilized in full and if there is no other change in the issued share capital of the Company, the Shares (with voting rights) held by Easy Flow Investments Limited would increase from approximately 25.91% to approximately 28.79%. Such increase would not give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that would result in the number of Shares held by the public falling below 25% of the total number of Shares in issue.
