The purpose of this circular is to: (i) provide you with details of the proposed Issue Mandate and the proposed Repurchase Mandate; (ii) furnish you details of the proposed re-election of retiring Directors; (iii) set out an explanatory statement regarding the Repurchase Mandate and (iv) give you notice of the AGM.

GENERAL MANDATES TO ISSUE NEW SHARES AND REPURCHASE SHARES

The Company's existing mandate to issue and repurchase Shares was approved by its Shareholders on 19 June 2020. Unless otherwise renewed, the existing mandate to issue and repurchase Shares will lapse at the conclusion of the AGM.

- 4 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Ordinary resolutions will be proposed at the AGM to grant to the Directors new general mandates:

  2. to repurchase Shares with an aggregate nominal amount not exceeding 10% of the aggregate nominal amount of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of passing the proposed resolution at the AGM.

In addition, a separate ordinary resolution will be proposed at the AGM to add to the Issue Mandate those Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate (if granted to the Directors at the AGM).

The Directors have no present intention to exercise the Issue Mandate or the Repurchase Mandate (if granted to the Directors at the AGM).

An explanatory statement containing information regarding the Repurchase Mandate is set out in the Appendix I to this circular.

PROPOSED RE-ELECTION OF RETIRING DIRECTORS

Each of Mr. Lin Kaihua, an executive Director and the independent non-executive Directors, Ms. Wong Wai Ling and Professor Lam Sing Kwong Simon was re-elected as a Director at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 5 June 2018 with effect from the same date. Mr. Zhang Dafan was appointed as an executive Director by the Board on 12 August 2020 with effect from the same date.

Mr. Zhang Dafan, Mr. Lin Kaihua, Ms. Wong Wai Ling and Professor Lam Sing Kwong Simon will retire from office as a Director at the AGM. Each of Mr. Lin Kaihua, Ms. Wong Wai Ling and Professor Lam Sing Kwong Simon, being eligible, offers himself/herself for re-election pursuant to article 108(a) of the Articles.

Pursuant to code provision A.4.3 of the Corporate Governance Code sets out in Appendix 14 to the Listing Rules, further appointment of Ms. Wong Wai Ling and Professor Lam Sing Kwong Simon, both being an independent non-executive Director and have been serving the Company for more than nine years, should be subject to a separate resolution to be approved by the Shareholders.

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This appendix includes an explanatory statement required by the Stock Exchange to be presented to Shareholders concerning the Repurchase Mandate proposed to be granted to the Directors.

1. STOCK EXCHANGE RULES FOR REPURCHASES OF SHARES

The Listing Rules permit companies with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions.

The Listing Rules provide that all proposed repurchases of shares by a company with a primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved by shareholders in advance by an ordinary resolution in a general meeting, either by way of a general mandate or by a specific approval of a particular transaction and that the shares to be repurchased must be fully paid up.

2. FUNDING AND IMPACT OF REPURCHASES

Any repurchase will be made out of funds which are legally available for the purpose in accordance with the memorandum and the Articles, the Listing Rules and the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. As compared with the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2020 (being the date to which the latest audited accounts of the Company have been made up), the Directors consider that there would not be a material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event the proposed repurchases were to be carried out in full during the proposed repurchase period.

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 of the Company or the gearing position which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company.

3. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders to have a general authority from the Shareholders to enable the Directors 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 of the Company and/or its earning per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that such repurchases will benefit the Company and the Shareholders.

4. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 748,366,000 Shares.

Subject to the passing of the relevant ordinary resolutions to approve the general mandates to issue and repurchase Shares and on the basis that no further Shares are issued or repurchased between the Latest Practicable Date and the AGM, the Directors would be authorised to exercise the powers of the Company to repurchase a maximum of 74,836,600 Shares.

- 7 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

5. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange to exercise the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Listing Rules, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of the Company.

6. EFFECT OF THE TAKEOVERS CODE

If as a result of a repurchase of Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, a shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such 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 that term is defined in the Takeovers Code), depending on the level of increase of the shareholder's interest, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the following Shareholders had interests representing 5% or more of the issued share capital of the Company:

  1. The interests held by Pacific Climax consist of interests (long position) in 530,894,000 ordinary shares. Ms. Xie Mei and Mr. Lin Kaihua, both being executive Directors, and Mr. Wang Wenjin, being a non-executive Director, are also directors of Pacific Climax.
  2. OCT (HK) is the beneficial owner of all the issued share capital in Pacific Climax. Therefore, OCT (HK) is deemed, or taken to be interested in all the Shares beneficially held by Pacific Climax for the purpose of the SFO. Mr. Zhang Dafan and Ms. Xie Mei, both being an executive Director, and Mr. Wang Wenjin, being a non-executive Director, are also directors of OCT (HK).

- 8 -

APPENDIX I

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

  1. OCT Ltd. is the beneficial owner of all the issued shares in OCT (HK), which is in turn the beneficial owner of all the issued share capital in Pacific Climax Limited and therefore OCT (HK) is deemed, or taken to be interested in the Shares which are beneficially owned by Pacific Climax Limited and OCT (HK) for the purposes of the SFO. OCT Ltd. is a company incorporated in the PRC, the shares of which are listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. OCT Ltd. is a subsidiary of OCT Group.
  2. OCT Group is the holding company of OCT Ltd. and together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, OCT Capital Shenzhen Investment Management Company Limited (深圳華僑城資本有限公司), hold approximately 47.97% interests in OCT Ltd., which is the beneficial owner of all the issued shares of OCT (HK) which is in turn, the beneficial owner of all the issued share capital of Pacific Climax. Therefore, OCT Group is deemed, or taken to be interested in all the Shares which are beneficially owned by OCT Ltd., OCT (HK) and Pacific Climax for the purpose of the SFO.

In the event the Directors exercise in full the power to repurchase Shares which is proposed to be granted pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, the interests of each of the above Shareholders in the Company would be increased to approximately the percentages as set out opposite their respective names in the table above. On the basis of the aforesaid increase of shareholding held by the Shareholders set out above, the Directors are not aware of any consequences of such repurchases of Shares that would result in the Shareholder, or group of Shareholders acting in concert, becoming obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code if the Repurchase Mandate were exercised in full. Moreover, the Directors do not intend to exercise the power to repurchase Shares to an extent which would render the aforesaid Shareholders or any Shareholder or group of Shareholders obliged to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. As the exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full would result in insufficient public float of the Company, the Directors have no intention to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such an extent that results in a public shareholding of less than the minimum public float requirement of 25% of the total issued share capital of the Company.

7. DIRECTORS, CLOSE ASSOCIATES AND CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

None of the Directors nor, to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their respective close associates has any present intention, in the event that the proposed Repurchase Mandate is granted, to sell Shares to the Company. No core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell Shares to the Company nor has he/she/it undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company in the event that the Company is authorised to make repurchases of Shares.

8. SHARE REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchase of Shares has been made by the Company (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) during the six months ended on the Latest Practicable Date.

9. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest prices at which the Shares have traded on the Stock Exchange in each of the previous twelve months and up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:
