LETTER FROM THE BOARD

1. INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this circular is to provide the Shareholders with information in respect of certain resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 24 September 2020.

2. PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In accordance with Article 108(a) of the Articles of Association, Ms. Chiu Siu Fung Noletta, Mr. Ma Ching Fung and Ms. Wong Hang Yee, JP shall retire at the Annual General Meeting. All of the above Directors, being eligible, will offer themselves for re-election at the Annual General Meeting.

The nomination committee of the Company has reviewed the structure and composition of the Board, the confirmations and disclosures given by the Directors, the qualifications, skills and experience, time commitment and contribution of the retiring Directors with reference to the nomination principles and criteria set out in the Company's Board Diversity Policy and Director Nomination Policy and the Company's corporate strategy. The nomination committee of the Company has recommended to the Board on re-election of all the retiring Directors.

Details of the retiring Directors proposed for re-election at the Annual General Meeting are set out in Appendix I to this circular.

3. ADJUSTMENT TO THE DIRECTOR'S FEE FOR INDEPENDENT NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY

The existing Director's fee for each independent non-executive Director of the Company is "HK$180,000 for each Director per year" as per the existing letter of appointment.

Considering the development level of the industry, development scale of the Company, and the fee level of independent non-executive directors of other listed companies of similar size, the Company proposed to adjust the level of Director's fee for independent non-executive Directors with the details set out as follows:

  1. Applicable scope
    All independent non-executive Directors of the Company.

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(II) Limits on Director's fee

An independent non-executive Director will be entitled to an annual Director's fee of HK$240,000 during his/her tenure as a member of the Board with effect from 1 October 2020.

(II) Payment method

The Director's fee will be paid on a monthly basis, in accordance with the terms of the letter of appointment that the relevant Director has entered into with the Company. The payment will be made in Hong Kong dollars.

The proposal is currently being proposed to the Annual General Meeting for consideration and approval. The Company will enter into a new letter of appointment with each independent non-executive Director after the aforesaid proposal is considered and approved at the Annual General Meeting, and the existing letter of appointment will be terminated simultaneously.

4. PROPOSED GRANTING OF GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE SHARES

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 19 September 2019, a general mandate was granted to the Directors to repurchase Shares.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

The following is an explanatory statement required by the Listing Rules to provide the Shareholders with requisite information reasonably necessary for them to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the ordinary resolution to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting in relation to the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate.

1. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 1,992,000,000 Shares of nominal value of HK$0.01 each.

Subject to the passing of the ordinary resolution set out in item 6 of the notice of the Annual General Meeting in respect of the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate and on the basis that the issued share capital of the Company remains unchanged on the date of the Annual General Meeting, i.e. being 1,992,000,000 Shares, the Directors would be authorized under the Share Repurchase Mandate to repurchase, during the period in which the Share Repurchase Mandate remains in force, a total of 199,200,000 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of Shares in issue as at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

2. REASONS FOR SHARE REPURCHASE

The Directors believe that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Company to repurchase its Shares in the market.

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

3. FUNDING OF SHARE REPURCHASE

The company may only apply funds legally available for share repurchase in accordance with its Memorandum and Articles of Association, the laws of the Cayman Islands and/or any other applicable laws, as the case may be.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

4. IMPACT OF SHARE REPURCHASE

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 contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2020) in the event that the Share Repurchase Mandate was to be carried out in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period. However, the Directors do not intend 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 the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

5. MARKET PRICES OF SHARES

The highest and lowest prices per Share at which Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange during each of the previous 12 months up to and including the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

6. GENERAL

To the best of their knowledge and having made all reasonable enquiries, none of the Directors nor any of their respective close associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) have any present intention to sell any Shares to the Company in the event that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Company has not been notified by any core connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to sell any Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the granting of the Share Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the power of the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands.

7. TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Share Repurchase Mandate, a Shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition of voting rights for the purposes of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, 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 Shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

To the best knowledge of the Company, as at the Latest Practicable Date, Ms. Chiu Siu Yin Lovinia, held through RLA Company Limited, was interested in 1,494,000,000 Shares representing 75% of the total issued share capital of the Company. In the event that the Directors exercise the proposed Share Repurchase Mandate in full, the shareholding of Ms. Chiu Siu Yin Lovinia, held through RLA Company Limited, would be increased to approximately 83.33% of the issued share capital of the Company. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which may give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

The Listing Rules prohibit a company from making repurchase on the Stock Exchange if the result of the repurchase would be that less than 25% (or such other prescribed minimum percentage as determined by the Stock Exchange) of the total number of issued shares of the company would be in public shareholders.

APPENDIX II

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT ON

THE SHARE REPURCHASE MANDATE

The Directors do not propose to exercise the Share Repurchase Mandate to such an extent as would, in the circumstances, give rise to an obligation to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code and/or result in the aggregate number of Shares held by the public shareholders falling below the prescribed minimum percentage required by the Stock Exchange.

8. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

During the 6 months prior to the Latest Practicable Date, the Company had not repurchased any of the Shares (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise).
