LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In considering the re-election of the retiring Directors, the Nomination Committee of the Company took into account the board diversity policy and applied the selection criteria set out in the nomination policy by, inter alia, reviewing the experience and expertise as well as the performance and time commitment of the retiring Directors for the financial year ended 31 March 2020.

Mr. Alva Kwok was appointed as an independent non-executive Director in October 2001 and has been serving on the Board for more than nine years. As such, pursuant to the code provision A.4.3 of the CG Code, a separate resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting for approving his further appointment.

The Nomination Committee reviewed Mr. Alva Kwok's annual independence confirmation made pursuant to the independence guidelines set out in Rule 3.13 of the Listing Rules and considered that Mr. Alva Kwok continues to be independent. Taking into account Mr. Alva Kwok's extensive experience in different fields including marketing and business development and his positive and valuable advice to the Company's strategies and policies with independent judgement, the Nomination Committee is of the view that Mr. Alva Kwok has the required integrity and experience to continue to contribute to the Board with a diversity of perspectives, skills and experience. In addition, given Mr. Alva Kwok's good track record in attending the meetings of the Company, the Nomination Committee was satisfied that he has devoted sufficient time and attention to the Board.

With the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, the Board was satisfied that Mr. Alva Kwok has the required integrity, independence and experience to fulfill his role as an independent non-executive Director, and the re-election of Mr. Alva Kwok and the other retiring Directors is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Mr. Alva Kwok abstained from the discussion and voting regarding his independence and re-election at the meeting of the Nomination Committee, whereas each of the three retiring Directors abstained from the discussion and voting regarding his own re-election at the Board meeting.

The biographical and other details of each of the retiring Directors standing for re-election at the Annual General Meeting, as required to be disclosed under the Listing Rules, are set out in Appendix I to this circular.

3. GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE SHARES AND TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 6 September 2019, general mandates were granted to the Directors authorising them, inter alia, (i) to exercise the powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of the issued Shares as at 6 September 2019; (ii) to repurchase Shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of the issued Shares as at 6 September 2019; and (iii) to extend the general mandate to issue Shares by adding to it the aggregate number of issued Shares repurchased under the repurchase mandate mentioned in (ii) above. Such general mandates will expire at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting.

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to grant to the Directors new general mandates authorising them (i) to exercise all powers of the Company to allot, issue and deal with Shares not exceeding 20% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the passing of such resolution; (ii) to repurchase Shares not exceeding 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the passing of such resolution; and (iii) subject to the passing of the ordinary resolutions to approve the General Mandates at the Annual General Meeting, to extend the Issue Mandate by adding to it the aggregate number of issued Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 957,392,004 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolutions to approve the General Mandates at the Annual General Meeting and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed to issue up to a maximum of 191,478,400 Shares under the Issue Mandate and to repurchase up to a maximum of 95,739,200 Shares under the Repurchase Mandate.

The Directors believe that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole if the General Mandates are granted at the Annual General Meeting. The Issue Mandate will provide the Directors with flexibility to issue new Shares especially in the context of a fund-raising exercise in a timely manner or a transaction involving an acquisition by the Group where Shares are to be issued as consideration and which has to be completed speedily. Repurchase of Shares will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Considering the rapid changes in the market conditions, the Repurchase Mandate can provide more flexibility to the Directors to enhance the net asset value per Share and/or the earnings per Share.

The General Mandates, if approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, will continue until whichever is the earliest of:

  1. the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company;
  2. the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting of the Company is required by the Bye-laws or any applicable laws of Bermuda to be held; and
  3. the revocation or variation of such authority by the Shareholders in general meeting of the Company.

An explanatory statement providing all the information required to be disclosed under the Listing Rules regarding the Repurchase Mandate is set out in Appendix II to this circular.

4. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

A notice convening the Annual General Meeting is set out on pages 13 to 17 of this circular. At the Annual General Meeting, resolutions will be proposed to approve, inter alia, the re-election of the retiring Directors, the granting of the General Mandates and the extension of the Issue Mandate by adding to it the aggregate number of issued Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate.

- 5 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

A form of proxy for use by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting is enclosed. Whether or not you are able to attend the Annual General Meeting, you are requested to complete the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to the branch share registrar of the Company in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong, as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof (as the case may be). Completion and return of the form of proxy will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment thereof should you so wish.

Pursuant to the Listing Rules and the Bye-laws, any vote of the Shareholders at a general meeting must be taken by poll except for purely procedural or administrative matters. The chairman of the Annual General Meeting will therefore put all resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to be voted by way of poll. An announcement on the results of the votes by poll will be made by the Company after the Annual General Meeting in the manner prescribed under the Listing Rules. To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquires, no Shareholders are required to abstain from voting on any resolutions to be approved at the Annual General Meeting pursuant to the Listing Rules and/or the Bye-laws.

5. RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

This circular, for which the Directors collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Listing Rules for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this circular is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this circular misleading.

6. RECOMMENDATION

The Directors consider that the proposed re-election of the retiring Directors, granting of the General Mandates and extension of the Issue Mandate by adding to it the aggregate number of issued Shares repurchased under the Repurchase Mandate are all in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors recommend the Shareholders to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

Yours faithfully,

For and on behalf of

ITC Properties Group Limited

Cheung Hon Kit

Chairman

- 9 -

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

REPURCHASE MANDATE

This appendix serves as the explanatory statement, as required by Rule 10.06 of the Listing Rules, to provide requisite information to the Shareholders with regard to the Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHAREHOLDERS' APPROVAL

The Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listings are on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange provided that the shares proposed to be repurchased must be fully paid-up and all repurchases of shares must be approved in advance by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders, either by way of a specific approval or a general mandate to the directors of the company to make such repurchase.

2. EXERCISE OF THE REPURCHASE MANDATE

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were 957,392,004 Shares in issue. Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution to approve the Repurchase Mandate at the Annual General Meeting and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased from the Latest Practicable Date to the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company would be allowed to repurchase up to a maximum of 95,739,200 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of issued Shares as at the date of the passing of such resolution, under the Repurchase Mandate.

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole for the Directors to have a general authority from the Shareholders to repurchase Shares on the market. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per Share and/or the earnings per Share and will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

4. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

The repurchase of Shares shall be made out of 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. Under Bermuda law, repurchases may only be effected out of the capital paid up on the repurchased Shares or out of funds of the Company otherwise available for dividend or distribution or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of Shares made for the purpose. Any premium payable on a repurchase over the par value of the Shares to be repurchased must 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. It is envisaged that the funds required for any repurchase of Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Repurchase Mandate would be derived from such sources.

- 10 -

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

REPURCHASE MANDATE

As compared to the financial position of the Company as at 31 March 2020 (being the date of the Company's latest published audited accounts), the Directors consider that the repurchases of Shares will have no material adverse impact on the working capital and the gearing position of the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate were to be exercised in full during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an 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.

5. DIRECTORS, CLOSE ASSOCIATES AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates has any present intention, in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders, to sell Shares to the Company.

No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company, or has undertaken not to do so, in event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

6. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise all powers of the Company to make repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Bye-laws and the applicable laws of Bermuda.

7. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

The Company repurchased a total of 8,870,000 Shares on the Stock Exchange in the six months preceding the Latest Practicable Date. Details are set out as follows:

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

REPURCHASE MANDATE

8. EFFECTS OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Directors exercising the powers of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purpose of Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a Shareholder or a group of Shareholders acting in concert, depending on the level of increase of the Shareholders' interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Dr. Charles Chan beneficially owned and through the companies wholly owned by him, was interested in an aggregate of 267,775,093 Shares (the "Total Interests"), representing approximately 27.96% of the Share Capital. In the event that the Repurchase Mandate is exercised in full (assuming the Total Interests remain unchanged as at the Latest Practicable Date), the Total Interests of Dr. Charles Chan in the Company would increase to approximately 31.07% of the Share Capital. As such, an exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full may result in Dr. Charles Chan becoming obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rules 26 and 32 of the Takeovers Code. The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would result in such mandatory offer obligation arising.

9. SHARE PRICES

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Notes:

  1. Any shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting may appoint another person as his proxy to attend and vote instead of him. A shareholder of the Company who is the holder of two or more shares of the Company (the "Shares") may appoint more than one proxy to represent him and vote on his behalf at the Meeting. A proxy needs not be a shareholder of the Company. In addition, a proxy or proxies representing either a shareholder of the Company who is an individual or a shareholder of the Company which is a corporation shall be entitled to exercise the same power on behalf of the shareholder of the Company which he or they represent(s) as such shareholder of the Company could exercise.
  2. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or his attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under its seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorised to sign the same. In the case of an instrument of proxy purporting to be signed on behalf of a corporation by an officer thereof, it shall be assumed, unless the contrary appears, that such officer was duly authorised to sign such instrument of proxy on behalf of the corporation without further evidence of the fact.
  3. The instrument appointing a proxy and (if required by the Board) the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a certified copy of such power or authority, shall be delivered to the branch share registrar of the Company in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong, as soon as possible and in any event not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the Meeting or any adjourned meeting thereof at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote and, in default, the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid.
  4. Completion and return of an instrument appointing a proxy shall not preclude a shareholder of the Company from attending and voting in person at the Meeting or any adjournment thereof or on the poll concerned and, in such event, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked.
  5. Where there are joint holders of any Share, any one of such joint holders may vote, either in person or by proxy, in respect of the Share as if he were solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders be present at the Meeting the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company (the "Register of Members") in respect of the joint holding.
  6. For the purpose of ascertaining shareholders' entitlement to attend and vote at the Meeting, the Register of Members will be closed from Tuesday, 8 September 2020 to Friday, 11 September 2020, both days inclusive, during which period no transfer of Shares will be registered. In order to be eligible to attend and vote at the Meeting, shareholders of the Company must lodge all transfer documents accompanied by the relevant share certificates with the branch share registrar and transfer office of the Company in Hong Kong, Tricor Secretaries Limited, at the abovementioned address for registration by no later than 4:30 p.m. on Monday, 7 September 2020.
  7. In light of the epidemic of COVID-19, shareholders of the Company are strongly encouraged to appoint the chairman of the Meeting as his/her proxy to vote on the resolutions, instead of attending the Meeting in person.
  8. No food or drink will be served at the Meeting. The Company will also implement the precautionary measures regarding group gathering at the Meeting as required by the relevant regulations from time to time.

As at the date of this notice, the Directors are as follows:

Executive Directors:

Mr. Cheung Hon Kit (Chairman)
