That general mandate will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM.

To provide continued flexibility to the Directors, an ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM for the granting of the Share Issue Mandate to the Directors, on terms as set out in Ordinary Resolution No. 4 in the AGM Notice, allowing them to exercise all the powers of the Company to issue, allot and deal in the Shares. Under the Share Issue Mandate, the number of Shares that the Company is authorised to allot or agree conditionally or unconditionally to allot (whether pursuant to an option or otherwise), subject to the exceptions as set out in paragraph (c) of Ordinary Resolution No. 4, will not exceed 20% of the aggregate number of the Shares in issue of the Company as at the date of passing such Ordinary Resolution.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the number of Shares in issue was 538,019,000. Subject to the passing of the proposed resolution for approving the Share Issue Mandate and on the basis that no further Shares are issued by the Company prior to the date of the AGM, the Company would be allowed under the Share Issue Mandate to issue up to a limit of 107,603,800 Shares.

3. RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant to Articles 82 to 84 of the Articles of Association, Mr. Ding Yatao (''Mr. Ding'') will retire by rotation at the AGM and, being eligible, has offered himself for re-election at the AGM.

In accordance with Article 77 of the Articles of Association, Mr. Yeung Man Lee (''Mr. Yeung''), Mr. Leung Luen Cheong (''Mr. Leung'') and Mr. Yang Ge (''Mr. Yang'') (collectively referred to as the ''New INEDs'') who were appointed Independent Non-Executive Directors subsequent to the last annual general meeting of the Company held on 19 June 2020, will hold office until the AGM and, being eligible, have offered themselves for re-election at the AGM.

Set out below is the information relating to the re-election of Mr. Yeung, Mr. Leung and Mr. Yang as Independent Non-Executive Directors of the Company according to Rule

These written confirmations also covered the immediate family

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

members of each of the New INEDs. Having regard to the confirmations as well as the actual contributions that each of the New INEDs has made, the Board concluded that each of the Independent Non-executive Directors to be independent.

(b) Process for Selecting Independent Non-Executive Directors

The Board is responsible for recommending Directors for re-election by Shareholders at the general meeting. It has delegated the relevant screening and evaluation process to the Nomination Committee of the Company, which identifies suitably qualified Director candidates and recommends them to the Board.

When evaluating Directors for nomination, the Nomination Committee of the Company mainly takes into account: (i) diversity, (ii) character and integrity, (iii) professional qualifications, skills and knowledge, (iv) experience relevant to the Company's business and corporate strategy, (v) commitment to enhancing shareholder value and (vi) fulfillment of independence requirements (for Independent Non-Executive Directors only). The Nomination Committee of the Company then makes recommendation to the Board which in turn makes recommendation to Shareholders in respect of the proposed re-election of Directors at the general meeting.

At a meeting of the Nomination Committee of the Company held on 26 March 2021 at which each of the New INEDs had abstained from voting when his own nomination was being considered, the Nomination Committee of the Company recommended the New INEDs to be re-elected to the Board. The Nomination Committee of the Company considers that all the New INEDs are highly regarded incumbent with a wealth of expertise and experience relevant to the Company.

The Board, having considered the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, is of the view that each of the New INEDs will continue to contribute to the Board with their understanding of the businesses of the Group, diversity of skills set and perspectives as well as devotion to the Group. The Board also believes that the invaluable knowledge and experience of the New INEDs in the businesses of the Group and their general business acumen continue to generate significant contribution to the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Moreover, since only Independent Non-executive Directors can serve on certain Board Committees under the Listing Rules, their independence is a valuable asset to the Board and these committees.

  1. Contribution to diversity of the Board

The Company considers diversity in a broad sense, including but not limited to gender, age, cultural and educational background, professional experience, skills, industry knowledge and length of service. It also takes into consideration its own business model and specific needs from time to time. As explained above, each of the New INEDs possesses a diverse blend of skills, background, experience and viewpoint that are crucial to drive the Company forward in the ever-evolving competitive landscape. They bring a broad perspective to the Board and provide constructive thoughts for the Company's overall strategic planning and business development.

- 5 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

(d) Other listed company directorship

  1. Length of services

Information relating to each of Mr. Ding, Mr. Yeung, Mr. Leung and Mr. Yang as required to be disclosed under Rule 13.51(2) of the Listing Rules is set out in Appendix I to this circular.

4. THE AGM

The AGM Notice is set out in Appendix II to this circular. Shareholders are advised to read the AGM Notice and to complete and return the enclosed form of proxy for use at the AGM in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and deposit the same with the Company's share registrar, Tricor Tengis Limited, at Level 54, Hopewell Centre, 183 Queen's Road East, Hong Kong not less than 48 hours before the time fixed for holding the AGM or any adjournment thereof.
